This is the latest Flashtool 0.9.13.0:

Download here: http://ul.to/sb8cfqyr

Flashtool is a S1 flashing software that works for all Sony phones from X10 to Xperia Z Ultra. They all use the S1 protocol for flashing firmwares.

This program was originally made to flash sin files downloaded by SEUS or PCC. From time to time, sin files have been bundled into what is now well known FTF (Flash Tool Firmwares). That is the core of Flashtool and the reason of its name.

Flashtool can also easily unlock the bootloader of the phone using the BLU icon as far as the bootloader of your phone is unlockable

The flashing feature as well as bootloader unlock feature are available whatever the phone is recognized or not by the application. What is only mandatory for flashing is to own the FTF file according to the device you want to flash it on.

Why should I use flashtool ?

Once bootloader unlocked, official sony tools do not work anymore.

Using official sony tools, you can only upgrade. No downgrade possible.

Using flashtool, you can choose what to flash and what not to flash. This said, many rooting scenarios are available implying kernel only downgrade to retrieve a patched rooting exploit and then flash back the right kernel.

You said unlocking bootloader ?

This process gives you the opportunity to flash custom roms such as CyanogenMod ROMs.

I invite you to visit the FXP Project that brings CM to xperia devices.

Many other features have been built-in so that Flashtool can also be used to (as far as the phone is recognized by Flashtool) :

Root your phone

Install recovery, busybox, custom kernels

Clean your rom (remove /system/apps apps of your choice) (Be careful, unless you really know what you do, do not modify the default list. This can make your phone stuck at the SE Logo)

Clear dalvik cache

Optimize (install of JIT v2) (plugin for 2.1 phones only from 2010 line)

Customize (installs apps found in the custom/apps folder of the flashtool)

Edit any text file on the device

Rebrand your device
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boniman:
I've ordered Sony xperia z c6603 from UK. Seller told me that it was unlocked, but it wasn't. It asks me for a pin code when I insert a local sim card. How can i unlock it? And can i flash another rom for this phone and will it be unlocked then? Help please!!! I don't wanna spend me money for unlocking it.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
The only way is to get an unlock code, either from the original carrier (unlikely as you aren't the original owner) or from an online seller.

Flashing another rom will not network unlock your phone.

I suggest you return it if you don't want to pay to have it unlocked, as it was falsely advertised.

hi guys...i was hoping this forum: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=18384

would have that pdf on how to disassemble the xda mini, as i can not hear a soul when i get a call, much less make one. I am certain the problem is with the contacts on the speaker, but i am having trouble getting the device open. Any ideas? as well, once i get it open, then what?

The link you indicated contains the disassemble.pdf file, I just checked it. You have to be logged-in to be able to download.

Maybe u should show the device the service centre in your area. Would be better than to tamper with it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] disxtort:
I thought that ditching my who-knows-how-old Evo 4G would've saved me from unlocking/rooting/flashing hell but of course not.

The Phone:

Sprint

HTC One

Android - 4.3

S-ON

HBOOT - 1.55

Radio - 1.00.20.0913 (who cares)

Image - 3.04.651.2

All I Really Need:

I need to flash the phone from Sprint to Page Plus. So I need to get it into Diag mode. For that, I need the MSL/SPC.

The Problems:

Revskills and a few other programs + a handful of apps give me all types of errors. I decided to root and use an app that requires root to get the MSL, figuring it would work better. Unlocked my bootloader through HTCDev and attempted to flash a custom rom.

Tried 5 versions of TWRP and try to load recovery - for 4 of them it says loading recovery and then starts the phone as if recovery doesn't exist. TWRP 2.5.0.0 loads up but the touchscreen won't react (I figure that version is too old for my specs.) Both versions of CWM "work" but don't allow access to wherever I'm saving the SuperSU.zip and gives me a list of errors similar to "E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command"

Where I'm At

Just flashed RUU Stock specific to my image. Figured I'd ask before going through that misery again.

Where do you guys suggest I go from here?

I really just need the MSL but root would be awesome to have.

Any and all help (and moral support) is greatly appreciated!

Apologies for the hot-headed response. Super frustrated right now. I'm gonna go through that guide again for now.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jluca98:
Pm LymeWire and ask nicely if he can get the MSL for you. He got mine no problem.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] disxtort:
Is he

Thanks for the recommendation! Is he a Sprint employee who can just pull it from the system?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Yes :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] LymeWire:
I hate sprint employees, they think they know everything
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] disxtort:
Lol

I had a lovely chat with 4 or 5 of them the other day on chat. Anyway, there was no number on the phone since it was brand new and I'm not activating with Sprint. I got the MSL by doing a ton of hard resets and updating every time the os came back up. So if anyone else has the issue of MSL readers, even MSL Utility, not working, hard reset and keep updating everything your phone lets you update (os, hboot, whatever). Then just run the damn thing again. Thanks for all the help though :)
[General Questions and Answers] teh_dot:
Hey,

I've got a serious problem with my Xperia U and I'm after twelve hours of trying to gifure it out, so I think I've passed more obvious solutions.

OK, so... I tried to unlock bootload (which I did) and root my phone via flashtool using some .tft file from xda. I think I've checked if this system is for mu phone and it was certainly for my soft version (6.1.1.B.10). So, I load this .tft file into flashtool, connect my phone as it tells me, the file uploads just fine, I plug out my phone, try to boot it and it doesn't respont. Since then I've tried to upload few .tft files (.10, .100, .54), to some of them my phone would respond at all (when booted it only vibrated), to some of them the phone would boot, but the touchscreen wouldn't work. In this case I'd have "POWER OFF" and "USE PHONE" on my screen and my side buttons would work (I could block my phone and take photos for example).

So, I've tried:

- flashing several times

- using official software from Sony (PC Companion and EMMA)

- using cmd to fastboot recovery.img - I failed to find recovery.img though.

Any suggestions? :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radman404:
Hi,

I'm a complete noob to the Samsung modding scene and have a couple questions, I've had a look around and just feel overwhelmed by the information and still my question is unanswered (My fault) I hope someone can just give me a few examples of ROMs for the S4 I905 XXUDMH8 that will allow me to use LTE all the time. I currently have the Echoe rom installed but I can't get LTE to work it turns off when the screen goes to sleep. So ideally I would like to install a new ROM that will allow me to use my phone's full functionality with the hassle of turning on LTE every time I'm out and about and need a fast internet connection.

Any help would appreciated.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repulsa:
You need to give more information than that mate. What version of echo rom? 4.3 or 4.4.2? In order to fix this issue you need to flash a 4.3 modem ;) so that when your Phone goes to sleep the signal wont drop :) or dial *#1234# and write it down here

Anyone else seeing this? After the last couple updates to gear manager, when the watch goes too far away and loses connection, often Gear Manager doesn't try to reconnect automatically like it always used to do.

I noticed the exact same thing.

I have to open GM & manually tell it to reconnect. It sometimes takes three of four times before it actually connects without timing out.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duratto:
Hello guys, I wonder if you can help me at all. I have installed Orbot on my I9000 running android 4.2.2 (cyanogen). It works OKish but the phone often disconnects itself from the tor network and I have no idea why. I had a look around the net for a possible explanation but I couldn't find much about it, so I thought I might ask here. Also, not sure if it is related to the above, but when I log in onto skype while Orbot is connected, I can get into skype all right but shortly after it disconnects me from skype, or to be precise, I am still logged in but clearly not connected to it because the online contacts disappear. Again I had a look online, but found very little: some people say you can't use VOIP over TOR, some others say you can. To be honest I haven't got as far as trying it. Anybody has any thoughts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anonify:
For your connectivity issues, I'm not sure. Orbot has been getting a lot of issues on newer android versions lately. Could be the latency on your network is too high.

You can do voip over Tor, as long as it uses TCP. Skype will fall back to TCP when UDP fails, so it does work over tor. I'm assuming you're rooted and using the transparent proxy feature to get skype through orbot, since it doesn't have proxy config options. I just made a call with skype over tor using Anonify on my note 2 and it worked fine. I was using wifi though. Calls may have some latency issues through tor.

More info about skype over tor: guardianproject.info/2012/12/10/voice-over-tor/

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duratto:
Thanks, sorry for the slow reply. In a way yes it helps, I know more about it now, but I tried to place a call on skype with the proxy on and the call doesn't go through. Moreover, when I switch on skype (proxy already on), it shows no online contacts even if they are online.

Is there a way to change the latency?

thanks

[HTC Desire C] Quasar:
It's a cm10 bug.... I don't know if too many people have looked into this....
[HTC Desire C] Gordon Freeman:
That's the answer that I hear the most, and I never hear anything more than that. What kind of bug prevents it on certain phones? Why do Sense roms (apparently) have working wifi hotspot?

All my other questions are still open, plus a lot more for discussion. I am only a couple of months away from buying a Nexus 5 anyway, but I need this phone to wifi hotspot in the meanwhile.
[HTC Desire C] Quasar:
Sense ROMs have working Wi-Fi hotspot as they are sort of a modified stock ROM....
[HTC Desire C] Gordon Freeman:
So you're saying that I have to use an Ice Cream Sandwich ROM if I want to be able to use wireless hotspot/tethering? I'm assuming that if there are no JellyBean ROMs that have working wifi tethering/hotspot, then it has something to do with the phones hardware being unable to work with a newer Android OS. But I'm pretty sure I've read people having success with tethering on JB ROMs.

Maybe someone could point me in the direction of having CM10/any JB ROM with working wifi hotspot/tethering, I'd be grateful.
[HTC Desire C] beanaroo:
THIS has been such a deal-breaker for me with the CM10 ROMs. But... Fear not!

The recent MiniCM10 by warrior1208 has fully functional USB and WiFi hotspot tethering! Yippeee! Definitely give the guy/girl credit.
[HTC Desire C] Gordon Freeman:
Are you sure that wireless tether is working in Mini CM10? I've flashed this ROM with the provided boot .img and Nope 2.6, and tether did not work. I'm pretty sure I applied that Wifi Fix as well, and nothing seemed to work for me.

Is anyone using a Jellybean ROM with tethering working? I just need to replicate as many possible working combinations of ROM and kernels,so any suggestions of combos would be awesome.
[HTC Desire C] beanaroo:
I'm posting this message via WiFi Hotspot. MiniCM10 V3, N.O.P.E. v2.6 850Mhz. No wifi fix applied apart from the WiFi keepalive app (Enabled workaround 2, reselect Always On). USB tether works too, as I use it to install Arch Linux before setting up laptop wireless drivers.

I haven't tried V4 yet. I have a Desire C non-NFC.
[HTC Desire C] maniknarang:
First of all, I am a boy! xD...

And yes USB tether works for me...but I didn't try wifi hotspot...

If you can post a screenshot on MINICM 10 forum, then it would be great, so that all people having problems with other also roms come to know...

Thanks!:D
[HTC Desire C] Gordon Freeman:
Thank you for your contribution to the thread. I only have the latest MiniCM10 (V4), but I am also using Nope 2.6, just a lower frequency (700mhz, i have no need for a large OC). I've just clean flashed it back onto my Desire C, and the same results as before. Here are a few screenshots, sometimes screenshots help :

Kernel Version

ROM Version

WiFi Working (Worked after turning it on then rebooted phone. WiFi was on once rebooted)

Wireless Tether NOT Working

On the last picture, if I back out into the previous menu then re-select to go back into the tethering sub-menu, the "Turning on WiFi..." message disappears and the checkbox is ticked, yet there is still no hotspot being produced.

So I must be doing something wrong still?

EDIT : So I've just flashed on the same kernel and CMMini version as you've said has worked for you. I've installed the "WiFi KeepAlive" app, but I am yet to launch it, as the description of the app (which is very vague) does not seem to mend the ailment that I am having.

I'm providing screenshots of the latest and current installation on my phone. I am not sure if anything in these is out of the ordinary, but maybe someone can tell me if I've done something wrong by looking at my "About Phone" section. Once again, I've provided screenshots of the wifi tether not turning on correctly :

About Phone 1 (Kernel and Baseband Version)

About Phone 2 (CM Version, Build Date and Build Number)

WiFi Tether (Unresponsive, stuck on screen until pressing Back)

WiFi Tether (Shows after exiting and entering again, produces no hotspot visible to other devices)

Working WiFi (After switching on then rebooting, wifi becomes available, but no hotspot)

So if anyone has anything to add, I'd be grateful once more.

Thanks
