Hi,
"Xperia Arc S" 4.0.2.a.0.62 I installed the firmware to the phone.
How to root the phone?
There are no root solution for .62 at this moment..why might have to wait till some dev can find a way to do it..
Sent from my Xperia Arc S
you have to downgrade to 4.0.2.A.0.42 to root your arc s
I think you can use a prerooted kernel instead .
Correct me if I'm wrong .
yes correct with unlocked bootloader.
i was update to 4.0.2.A.0.62 OTA when i received ArcS, i was install many apk, now i can't full backup because i can't install CWM to backup, i want to unlock bootloader but my app and date will be wipe, many many app to reinstall!!!!!!
Any solution to root 4.0.2.A.0.62
Thank you to everyone.
I have the LT18 wotanserver by selecting Downgrade

Hi,
i need the Generic DE Firmware for my Xperia Z5 but can't find it anywhere here in the forums or elsewhere.
Since I use Mac I can't get XperiFirm installed into Flashtool.
Can somebody either help me with a download link for the Firmware or help me with XperiFirm
Thanks in advance

I can get the Customized DE firmware for the E6653, which is generic, but I can't upload the file, it's too large (2GB+)
No clue how to use a mac so can't help there.
You got somewhere for me to upload the ftf file if I create it?
Have you considered running Windows in a VM on your Mac? This is how I use XperiFirm... Parallels Desktop works great.

I believe it's strictly down to some regional apps, not carrier based but locale based.
Here's a link to XPERIA Z5 E6653, 32.0.A.5.12 firmware for anyone still searching.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1AAC4lt7nzOMVlTWmRhQl93WDg/view
Tutorial for flashing here: http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/123-sony-xperia-z5-e6653
It stalled for about 5 minutes on "system.sin" but it eventually finished. Be patient and don't panic while flashing!

Which one is it? German? Generic EU?
Here... Generic EU

Just to be sure, flashing a generic rom on a carrier one don't wipe the DRM keys ?

No, unlocking bootloader wipes DRM keys.
Thanks bro
Z5 flashtool drivers
Hi... I'm on the version 32.0.A.6.152 and I'm trying to install the version 32.0.A.6.209. I got it form Xperifirm (E6603_32.0.A.6.209_1300-4290_R4B.ftf) for My Z5 E6603.
But i don't have the flashtool driver for Z5. I already installed the flashtool xperia driver pack v1.8 but didn't works.

Just a word on etiquette: the thread you're replying to has nothing to do with your problem. You should make your own thread in this case.
I believe I used the Sony drivers to make flashtool work.

Hello, .209 does not support fingerprint scanner.
And about the drivers, they are located inside the flashtool folder.
Eh. Anyone have the EU generic ones?. The links are broken
Finally found Nougat FTF for Xperia XZs Single and Dual .

Happy Downgrading !
do you have 41.2.A.7.76 for xzs dual?
It is not possible for me to use the single SIM version because Flashtool does not detect it. I have tried changing its name to .ftf because it comes as a .rar . It did not help. Extracting it doesn't help because there are so many files and I do not know if everything ends up right if I try to make it a .ftf through flashtool. I do not dare trying it.
Is there anything to do to get it to work?
