Is there any 157 Global or europian Rom?

Uk 157 generic is out! I have the notification on my uk generic c6903 so it should be euro lte based.

I'm waiting for the generic UK, CE, or global ftf of 157.

All the files in the OP are hosted on my server on a dual Gigabit port, I just checked the speed its fine here

Currently there is a tad bit higher server load as I`m doing upgrades, But files can be still be downloaded in under 5 min depending on the connection.

Did you try using a download manager?

Just tested the speed on my connection to my server same file, Link is not slow here.

Also decided to try another connection, My phones LTE connection at around 3MB/s from my server.

[Xperia Z1 General] jcmordan:
Thanks SaeedFazlollahzadeh,

But there is not any FTF for Orange's C9602 in XperiFirm.

Any other solution?
[Xperia Z1 General] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
You're welcome jcmordan

First of all, are you sure there are any Roms for Orange in C6902? Which country?

Second, if your Rom does not exist, so try not to search for it

And till now I have no more ideas

I'm sure the Rom exist, I found it before here, but now i cant find the post where I got it.

[Xperia Z1 General] acidrums4:
Hello! I'm kind of noob into this, so here's my thing: I just recovered my hard-bricked 6903 phone, but now it's on a loop boot. I saw at one post that I should get a FTF file to edit it and flash it in order to make the phone boot normally. I'm from Colombia and I can't remember which version my phone had (I remember that I didn't updated to the last one, so I had the previous to the latest update). So I don't know which one of the ftf files I should download...

Can somebody give me a clue about this? Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z1 General] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
First, if your phone is bricked, just normally Flash it by Flashtools

Second, here are the Roms which you can download, from Android 4.3 to 4.4.4 (4.2 is not listed):

14.2.A.0.290 is Android 4.3

14.3.A.0.757 is Android 4.4.2

14.4.A.0.108 is Android 4.4.4

14.4.A.0.118 is Android 4.4.4

14.4.A.0.133 is Android 4.4.4

14.4.A.0.157 is Android 4.4.4 (and up until now, the latest one)

I don't think there's any specific Rom for Colombia or any providers of it, but maybe there is (I'm not sure:()

I suggest Central Europe Rom which has the 157 Rom

Or you can download any Roms you want and like, and flash it

Generally there's no big differences between different branded and unbranded Roms. Just little differences like special apps for an especial carrier make them different

Have Fun
[Xperia Z1 General] acidrums4:
I will try with a .118, 'cause in the file folders on the OP I didn't find a .157. Thank you so much for your kind and quick response!
[Xperia Z1 General] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
If the Rom you want is not here, search it

There are lots of Roms on different forums

It can easily be downloaded from XperiaFirm in just a min or two once its out. I just mirror them on my server due to some people cant use XperiaFirm
[Xperia Z1 General] araemo:
That's because I hadn't logged in since you mentioned me, so I just saw the notification. :) I didn't know about XperiaFirm - I had the ftf I sent you because I had been screwing with my phone with PC companion and flashtool, after having to send it for repair... A direct download would be even easier.

Mega gave me a decryption error when downloading this, multiple times. I got sneaky and found another way to download it from the given URL.

Perhaps someone who has downloaded and flashed this could note their success where I failed :)

Would anyone happen to have the AMERICAS-LTE_14.4.A.0.108 for the C6906?

Just purchased the phone and in the event of any problems or a general dislike of 14.5.A.0.242, which is currently awaiting to be flashed via PC Companion, I would like the option to return to it.
[Xperia Z1 General] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
You can download any Rom for any phones by XperiFirm

Download it and read its instructions how to make ftf file
[Xperia Z1 General] rapperman:
I have tried XperiFirm and the only Rom's available for my particular device (C6906 1276-7484) is 14.4.A.0.157 and 14.5.A.0.242.
[Xperia Z1 General] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
So maybe there are no Rom of that firmware for this phone model
[Xperia Z1 General] MickieH:
No, it's not that. Sony removed most of the older firmwares, so they're no longer available through XperiFirm.

I haven't got. 108, but I found this, which is 14.4.A.0.157

http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/Sony/Xperia+Z1/C6906/

Should be generic US.
[Xperia Z1 General] rapperman:
Thanks MickieH. I was able to obtain that one from XperiFirm but was looking specifically for .108 as my research seems to show that it is the easiest to root. I did manage to locate a Canadian version of .108 that is a match to the Customization version (1276-7484_R4C) of my phone but the File System Version shows "Generic CA" rather than "AMERICAS-LTE" and that has me concerned that the cellular bands may not match.

I have yet to do anything with this phone. It is as it came out of the box... factory fresh. I wish there were a way to extract the files from the phone or backup the .108 firmware prior to applying the update.
[Xperia Z1 General] MickieH:
Well, you're right about the .108 being more easily rooted.

However, all you need do is flash the full .157 ftf.

Download and flash the .108 kernel only ftf --> https://mega.co.nz/#!ytZkwShJ!6BYg9h9VhRA6gbSiiFhndv4qoTaI4DxtPRHV1lQDFFk

Flash that with Flashtool after you've flashed the full .157 ftf

Boot your phone and enable developer options by going to Settings>About phone, and tap 'Build number' repeatedly until it says 'You are now a developer'

Now go Settings>Developer options and make sure USB debugging is turned on.

In Settings again go to Security and tick 'Unknown sources'

Root your phone.

I used this rootkit --> https://mega.co.nz/#!noo1wR4J!mhWBzLLggOjcEHwxkerNzMecn7qgmNihtcJG6VeVFz0

Flash back the .157 kernel only ftf --> https://mega.co.nz/#!D0RVnISC!3doeuXR2Ux0mWO3RXtb_kY652l6PksrB3PZDrse7ay8

That way, you will have the latest version, rooted.

Don't forget to install you're Z1 locked dual recovery after. Download NUT's latest and use that.

This is the latest version as we speak --> http://nut.xperia-files.com/?download=pvdjf1p5hvgo749frtupcu58t4&randomizer=_s2ooa3cl4

That's what I did, and was running on my Z1 until I unlocked my bootloader (TA backup made first!!) and flashed CM12.

I know it's a bit of a runaround, but it only takes a few seconds to flash those kernels, and job done.

Either way, if you do get stuck finding the .108 version you want, you can always try the above :good:

Customized means it is pre-rooted?

Tmobile c6916 z1s flashing

Is there a generic firmware available that's flashable to the tmobile z1s? I'm not interested in running non-stock rom's so I don't think I need an unlocked bootloader, but wasn't sure if there was a generic version.

I have an xperia TL that I flashed to the generic T excluding baseband to keep lte, and this has been a great phone, but I'm looking to upgrade and the z1s can be found online sooo cheap it's really tempting me. Going to give the TL to my mother, who doesn't exactly need a flagship handset.

I see a lot of old threads claiming that there are no roms available for this model, but nothing recent. Is this still true? I just want a generic ftf without all the branded crap installed.

Thanks folks!

You need to use Flashtool to convert the firmware into an ftf file. Have a look at that for example: http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/08/1...re-files-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool-guide/
