Hello again

Latest firmware with Lollipop 5.1.1. is here and i make also a flashable zip for Xperia Z1 (C6903), and so far is been released in just few countries. I make it pre rooted as by my side once you have a pre rooted firmware you can be able to manage and delete apps what you don`t need to free space in your mobile.

What do you need:

- Flashable zip

- Mobile phone Xperia Z1 (C6903) - with CWM/TWRP to can flash the zip

- USB Cable (make sure your battery is over 75%)

- Attention and patience

The procedure to flash the zip is the same like in other threads (copy the zip to your external SD Card and from there reboot your phone to CWM/TWRP and select - install zip)

STEPS TO UPDATE FROM ORIGINAL 5.0.2 Lollipop

1 - Download the .zip from the link bellow in Download section

2 - Copy the .zip to your External Memory (SD Card)

3 - Reboot the phone in Dualrecovery (CWM/TWRP/Philz)

4 - Select INSTALL, then

4 - Navigate to SD Card (external memory/sdcard1) and select the .zip you copied on step 2

5 - Confirm to flash the .zip

6 - When it says FINISHED and if all goes without errors select BACK then Reboot System

7 - Wait patiently for Android to Update and to boot up, the first reboot is longer than a normal one (around 5 minutes)

If you have no root access and not dual recovery and you are running Android 5.0.2 you must follow this steps:

1 - Downgrate to original firmare .108 (see below the Downgrate section)

2 - ROOT and INSTALL DUALRECOVERY

3 - Then follow the same steps as i wrote above to Update

The content of zip is

- firmware C6903_14.6.A.1.216_Customized CE [Central Europe] (i found with XperiFirm on thread wrote by [MENTION=1879618]IaguCool[/MENTION] so of course credits go to him)

- UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46 credits go to [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]

- LATEST Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.8.22-RELEASE.flashable credits to [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]

I used PRF Creator to make this zip flashable, credits go to [MENTION=3975929]zxz0O0[/MENTION]

DOWNGRATE TO 108 http://techbeasts.com/2015/04/14/root-xperia-z1-c6902c6903-14-5-a-0-242-5-0-2-lollipop-with-dual-recovery/

If you have done before flash with dual recovery you may skip the last link, but if it is your first time when you try to do this i highly recommend you to read before each thread including the one on last link.
