What's the customization number for this? I don't see an update for 1281-1977 so this must be another customization?

Nevermind it's the same as the German EURO unbranded, I add it as a mirror to it.
[Xperia Z2 General] kariakoo:
still cant root my Xperia z2 on my macbook pro, I feel like going back to my iphone :crying:
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
Well how are you rooting

Sometimes rooting doesnt work because the exploit has been patched or the method is outdated because the exploit was patched aka same thing
[Xperia Z2 General] LenAsh:
Insufficient info if you expect an answer. What are you trying to do EXACTLY?

IF you're trying to root the 314 f/w, then you need Windows as the only means of doing it currently.

(All this info is available if you look, of course.)
[Xperia Z2 General] kariakoo:
i use easyroot tool v9 for macbook to root my xperia z2, followed all instructions but when i click install.bat i get a msg says 'There is no application set to open the document “install.bat”.,
[Xperia Z2 General] norti:
The install.bat is only for Windows OS, you need to execute the install.sh shell script on linux or mac.
[Xperia Z2 General] kariakoo:
thank you for reply, but i dont know how to execute the install.sh shell script on mac, :crying:
[Xperia Z2 General] LenAsh:
You can't. The OP is clear about the OS that it can run on. Secondly, V9 is out of date, now V10 AND even this will not root 314 anyway .

Find a friend with Windows. buy them a beer for 20 minutes of their time and their help - sounds like you need it given the fails above...
[Xperia Z2 General] norti:
Search for 'execute .sh scripts on mac' in google and you'll find a lot of help.

Hi just a quick question, I want to update to 314 but I'm confused to which ftf I should download and flash?

I have D6503 which is unbranded/unlocked from UK.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
You can use ANY FTF however since your device... which is unbranded and unlocked

I do recomend excluding simlock.TA from any flash if it shows in the list
[Xperia Z2 General] kamalmawa:
I'm guessing you unlocked the bootloader before you flash the custom rom? If you did then you can't use any official Sony update services. Unless you made a backup of your TA Partition before unlocking the you have lost your DRM keys. But there's a way to bypass this and use the official Sony update service. Use Flashtool and relock the bootloader then you can use the Sony update service again. You can check your bootloader status by typing *#*#7378423#*#* in dial pad then Service info > Configuration. Last line should status the phone bootloader status

It is recommended to exclude all the .ta files when you creating a FTF through Flashtool. Don't know about others the 314 FTF I posted in general section I did makesure not to include ta stuff ;)

[Xperia Z2 General] AlanDS:
I suggest you to flash German unbranded FTF...
[Xperia Z2 General] tensaig2:
typo

Thanks for the recommendation :) another noob question, are there any effects if i flash the GERMAN FTF with my phone(I live in the PH BTW, and have a LB phone)
[Xperia Z2 General] AlanDS:
There won't be any problem with BL since you are flashing official FTF. Just flash the German FW and make sure that you do not have any signal drop. If you experience poor signal or drop, then you have to try other region FW.
[Xperia Z2 General] pena_leve:
Hi all.

My D6503 is unlocked/unbranded

With those dial numbers i can see the rooting status:

BL unlock allowed: yes

(i've done this the first time, but now gets more confuse)

What i need from you, experts, is:

I want to upgrade to the latest version.

So i GUESS i should proceed like this: (?)

Flash the new firm with Flashtool

Then use this thread to root the device, again (?)

Hi to all,

this is my first post here and i really need your help. I bought some day ago one Xperia Z2 brand and i used Flashtool and your firmare italy no brand to debrand the phone, but unfortunately something doesn't work. When i switch on it ask for "POWER OFF" with black screen. Tapping back the phone has an icon in notify and if i keep press it go to "com.sonyericsson.startup flags" app.

I retry to flash again with different firmare, but happen the same problem..

With the first batch only generic (and I mean non-branded) devices and the largest customer based locations received the latest firmware, all the others (mostly branded phones) will receive it after approved by the providers (=one or two weeks later, based on Sony's update roll-out timing from the past).

Do these updates corresponds to the device region or not?
[Xperia Z2 General] El.Guaje:
In Vietnam, there's no operator which sells Z2 (D6502), Z2 comes from Sony distributor (Sony Store, Sony authorized reseller stores).

At the beginning, Sony did't have enough Z2 because huge number of pre-orders, this time is the same.

But Sony has left us, 402 firmware which has been rolled out in may, now, it's nealy august...

1. Install the tft file without ta

2. Reboot the phone.

3. Use the rootkitXperia for rooting.

4. Reboot the phone.

5. Install XZDualRecovery

6. Reboot the phone.

7. Install SuperSU

Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 General] tamasrepus:
You should install SuperSU before installing XZDualRecovery (you need the "installer" version instead of the "flashable" version.

Also, since you have an unlocked bootloader, you don't really need XZDualRecovery. You can flash TWRP, etc outright.

To my knowledge it's the process of unlocking the bootloader itself that wipes your DRM keys. Flashing official firmwares does not unlock your bootloader, so you _should_ be safe.

The Thailand fw is in the OP. Do you need a download mirror? The fw is the same apart from regionalised bloatware - if you have an issue with the SG fw, you will with the Thai fw. Suggest you do a full factory reset BEFORE flashing any fw.

Do you mean 314?

Do a full factory reset before flashing. Good practice and saves having "issues" later.

Z2 (D6503) firmware for o2 UK handset.

I have an O2 UK handset which overheats and resets randomly. Over on the o2 forums I was recommended to use SUS to download and flash the latest firmware from O2. After the process completed it turned out that the generic UK version, and not the O2 variant, had been installed. I need to return my phone for repair and don't think o2 will accept it back generic software installed. So, now to my question. Does anybody have any idea where I can download the O2 UK variant of the. 402 firmware for the D6503?
[Xperia Z2 General] LenAsh:
If the official Sony flashing tool gave you what you have, O2 cannot really argue with you in terms of "illicit" firmware.

I've not seen an O2 UK variant (that doesn't mean there isn't one) - maybe O2 UK went Generic?
