I Have a suggestion for xperia flashtools.

After every new sony xperia device come out we face a problem that how to root it without unlock our boatloader, and right now Xperia Z5 family is un-rootalbe with locked Boatloader.

The Suggestion is if it is possible that we can take a backup of TA partition with flashtools without having root

if you succeed in this then we can backup TA and then unlock our boatloaders and then we can root.

So we will never lost DRM for root
[Sony Cross-Device General] caqo71:
Don't think that it could be possible, to access te TA Partition, we need a rooted device.

I'm having this error on 0.9.19.10. I downloaded and ran the previous version, 0.9.18.6, and there's no error. A bug seems to have been introduced. I'm not sure of how to track it down. The one piece of information I can add is this line from debug log output:

Hi,

I was hoping to get some help please.

I have a locked bootloader and recently downgraded my Xperia Z2 to 17.1.A.2.55 so I could root with DoomLord. I now want to update back to what the firmware should be.

I downloaded D6503_Customized AU_1281-9715_23.4.A.1.232_R5C from XperiFirm and I want to create a FTF file to flash. I have tried to read up as much as possible but I just wanted to check a few things.

These are the files from the "decrypted" folder under the "D6503_Customized AU_1281-9715_23.4.A.1.232_R5C" folder I can add to the FTF.

amss_fs_1_S1-MODEMSW-LIVE-9C84-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

simlock.ta

system_S1-SW-LIVE-9C84-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

userdata_S1-SW-LIVE-9C84-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

Now I have found that Flashtool will take care of any .ta files that may cause me grief so I can leave them in. Correct?

The other thing I have read is that I will need to remove the _S1xxxxxxxxxx from the file names. Is this also correct?

Will flashing this FTF file once I create it remove my root access? If it will, is there anything I can do to work around it. I haven't done anything to my phone yet except wipe, downgrade and gain root access. No system files have been deleted or modified.

Edit: I read up some more and looked at some FTF files from here in WinRAR. I've pretty much answered all my questions. I had another issue with the loader.sin file but I think that was because I plugged my phone in too early when I was using flash tool.

Is it true, that Xperia E4's sin files are impossible to extract?

I've tried everything to succeed and unfortunately - nothing worked.

Still staying on stock without any progress. :/ I just about to build a custom kernel, but it seems not a viable option. Yet.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Nimda01:
Did you use 0.9.19.0?

I can't extract Xperia S and P's sin files in 0.9.19.10 too. However, the problem solved after rollback to 0.9.18.6

But I don't sure that old version such as 0.9.18.6 will works with E4, because this device is very new.
[Sony Cross-Device General] airidosas252:
As a coincidence, I tried that and it looks like it succeeded with the older version you mentioned, but neither of available tools for extracting boot.img allowed me to do anything with it - it shows it as a corrupted image. I'm out of ideas. Looks like I need to wait a considerable amount of time.

bootloader (bootbundle?) missing

Sony Xperia Z5 premium. I had an unlocked bootloader and custom ROM. I was going to resell the phone, so I used flashtool to re-lock the bootloader and flashed a stock ROM. E6853, flashed correct model specific .ftf file. So...now I have a working stock phone. I do not have access to the bootloader, or recovery. When i adb reboot bootloader, it goes to a black screen with a blue LED. If I volume down when plugging in USB, it does the same thing. I am not rooted, so I can't flash from within the OS. I think I relocked the bootloader successfully, but can't unlock it now, because I can't access the fastboot. Does anyone have any ideas?

Z5 Premium 5.1.1 firmware .200

This was probably asked before but, with the recently released Z5 series, rooting with LB seems very very difficult, most are already waiting for MM to see if there is an exploit to gain root.

however, is it possible to flash a pre-rooted rom in ftf format?or at least gaining temp root?

I am not verse in linux or programming so please excuse my noob question.

Unable to flash device using FlashTool for Mac OS X

Hello,

I am attempting to flash my Sony Xperia M phone, to downgrade it from 4.3 to 4.1 (in order to install a custom ROM).

I have downloaded two versions of the 4.1 OS, but neither appear to work.

The problem is, the progress bar indicating how far along the Flashing process is, is stuck at one point forever.

As I understand, it should take only a matter of minutes, but I've left it going for hours at a time, but it never completes.

There seems to be something wrong with the software, or the OS I've downloaded, or the phone itself. I have no idea.

If you are able to suggest ways around this problem, that would be appreciated.

Here's a screenshot and a WebM of the Flashing process.

It means that You need Flashtool with version newer than 0.9.13.0 to be safe. As 0.9.18.6 is newer, You can use it.

Maybe I don't have properly understand what you meant, but on a Mac to move files from a folder to onother one, you can simply drug and drop them [emoji2] [emoji2]

If you can't find the. flashtool folder, is because it's hidden and you have to let the OS X shows the hidden files.

[Sony Cross-Device General] mbc07:
Now you can. I just pushed an .fsc script for Xperia M5 and it got accepted and merged. In other words, make sure you're using version 0.9.20.0 or newer and do a device sync once before flashing (Devices => Devices Sync => Manual Sync)...

EDIT: in case you have auto device sync, there's no need to do a manual sync, just grab an FTF file and happy flashing!
[Sony Cross-Device General] yurasik_687:
Xperia M5

What do you mean?

Where i can find .fsc script for Xperia M5, can you explain pls.?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mbc07:
[MENTION=6476013]yurasik_687[/MENTION] it means that Flashtool now comes bundled with a .fsc script for Xperia M5 just like Xperia Z series. So, with Flashtool 0.9.20.0 you just need to grab an FTF for Xperia M5 and answer yes when it asks if you want to use the .fsc script. In some cases you may get "processing of xxxxx.sin finished with errors", that can be fixed by using a lower value in "Max USB Buffer" option that's shown when you're selecting the FTF. As far as I tested, 512K seems to work flawlessly with M5...

Hello

I may seems to have a little bit of a problem with the Sin Editor on Linux and Windows... Attempt to Extract the sin wouldn't work. It would only work on version 0.9.18.6

The situation goes like this; once I selected the .sin file and clicked the Extract data, the log appears a new line, stating that it is extracting it.. However, the progress bar doesn't move at all even after 30 minutes of leaving my PC.

This problem has existed since quite a long while, just that I dismiss it. To my annoyance I would just go straight booting up Windows and extract the .sin files on Windows using FlashTool. Yes this means on Windows it is working flawlessly.

Now I think I should seriously report this to you.

I also tried running as root for Linux, unfortunately the results are no different. On Windows, Flashtool is indeed ran as Administrator

Known Operating Systems in which the feature doesnt work:

Linux Mint 17 64-bit

Linux Mint 17.1 64-bit

Linux Mint 17.2 64-bit

Linux Mint 17.3 64-bit

Ubuntu 15.10 Gnome 64-bit

Windows 10 64-bit

Since this isn't Android, I dont know how to provide a useful debug log.

Thank you :)

Ah, you're right. That's weird, the thread states that the latest version is 0.9.19.10. Maybe the thread and changelog on the site will be updated soon.

[Sony Cross-Device General] TechnoSparks:
All sins from most of the firmwares for the Xperia SP.. The ones I tried:

C5302 Customised Singapore 12.1.A.1.207 / R2B CDA 1272-3116

C5303 Customised Singapore 12.1.A.1.207 / R2B CDA 1272-4881

C5306 Customised US 12.1.A.1.205 / R3B CDA 1272-4529

All of this, only works on 0.9.18.6

Do you think this might be related to FSC templates? On the other hand, and very off-topic, the newbies from Xperia SP forums are having problems with FlashTool after version 0.9.18.6 when it is flashing the system.sin. Often times the subforums are bombarded with questions of why system.sin isn't flashed to the device. The version 0.9.18.6 is like a de facto version of FlashTool for our device, where every experienced users keep recommending it on such threads and questions..
