OK this is REALLY messed now!

I did everything to the T as above and the phone is in the same state as stock lol...SIM will not work AND I no longer have 32GB on my phone but instead it thinks I have 16GB now or 11.4GB free....WTF!?

The Stock firmware thought it was a North American model and all looked good minus asking for my SIM unlock code, which I have no clue what it is however what happened to the additional 16GB or storage??

I had done a backup of my ta partition through Flashtool, and now want to restore it. (Sony Xperia Z1)

As there is no restore option in flashtool, i assume that we have to create a flashing bundle out of the ta backup ( saved in the name 2.ta) and flash through flashtool, Could you please help me with this? Any help would be really appreciated!

[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
The backup you used is more a TA dump to check content. It is not intented to be restored.

A valid TA backup is Advanced -> Trim Area -> Raw device -> Backup ( and you will see restore entry too ;) )

To do such backups, you must have root.

Guys, when I try to create a FTF using Flashtool 0.9.15.0 I can't type anything in the "Device" field, version and branding are ok, but the device field remains gray and I can't write anything there. Any workaround?

I'm trying to create the FTF file from SEUS decryped files for my Xperia V (LT25i, Tsubasa) however the device field is greyed out and I cannot enter anything in it. For that reason, the flashtool will not create the FTF file. Attached is a screenshot showing the problem. I am using the latest version of flashtool (0.9.15), this problem was also on 0.9.14.

Please suggest...

[MENTION=2807379]Androxyde[/MENTION] Thanks.

The Linux 32bit version comes with Java 8. But the Flashtool shell script doesn't take care of this.

Do you want a diff from me?
[Sony Cross-Device General] evilc1:
Hi,

The Linux 64bit version is also the same, I looked in FlashTool execution file and there is no reference to Java 8. I am not familiar enough with sh script files to change it.

Thanks ranf & Androxyde,

The modification to flashtool script was what I thought, I replaced it with your one Androxyde but when it starts it bring up a screen saying,

"syncing devices from github please waituntil the end of process" ? That screen locks and I have to reboot to get out of it, any idea what is wrong.

I installed Flashtool v.0-9-15 to test and that worked without any problem.

Update URL...

Hi,

I'm trying to re-brand my z1 Compact and when I saw

* In Devices menu->Manage : You can now add updateurl and edit CDFID to check for each device where updateurl exists

In the change logs I was thrilled. zxz0O0 was kind enough to give the updateURL for the my customization (1280-7858).

But, is there a way to download and/or reflash the device with the showed firmware?

Cheers

Flashtool 0.9.16 does not open on ubuntu-gnome 14.04

Hi . I try to run Flashtool on ubuntu-gnome 14.04 but I have some problems.

I find the solutions of most of them on this link http://askubuntu.com/questions/366336/how-do-i-install-libusbx-library but if I try to run as root then I have this error

gelasak@gelasak-GA-MA785GT-UD3H:/opt/FlashTool$ sudo ./FlashTool
[sudo] password for gelasak:

Java version must be 1.6 or 1.7
gelasak@gelasak-GA-MA785GT-UD3H:/opt/FlashTool$

So I find the reason in this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables specialy

"sudo caveat

Any variables added to these locations will not be reflected when invoking them with a sudo command, as sudo has a default policy of resetting the Environment and setting a secure path (this behavior is defined in /etc/sudoers). As a workaround, you can use "sudo su" that will provide a shell with root privileges but retaining any modified PATH variables. "

If I run it without root privileges then FlashTool gui run but I have this error with red letters in Flashtool gui.

ERROR - Cannot run program "/opt/FlashTool/x10flasher_lib/adb.linux": error=13, Permission denied

I have changed the permissions but the problem still exist.

Terminal return this issues

How about a torrent? Torrents are nice: less load on individual servers, no wait times or any of that BS and the more people seeding, the faster it goes, it checks that the file works properly and it's resumable by design.

I have made a torrent for it, and it's currently seeding at 200Mbit/s. If you want it, please tell me and I'll publish the .torrent.

Because ul.to and depositfiles suck for free users. I can't break 50kByte/s at my uni which I have tested to 200/200 Mbit/s sustained.

Ive just noticed after flashing a kernel only tft that it says 'Bootloader status : NOT_ROOTABLE' on the log. Is there any way to flash a rootable or prerooted bootloader using Flashtool?

Backup device before rooting or unlocking

Hi,

I had a HTC one and knew how to root and unlock that phone.

I switched to a Xperia Z1 compact but I'm a noob for rooting / unlocking this device.

Before doing anything else I want to make a backup so I can restore it to its original settings if anything goes wrong.

Searching on 'backup Xperia' I found an explanation where you need to reflash the current os with the help of the Sony Update Software.

When that's done you can use this flashtool to make a backup.

In installed version 0.9.16 and found Tools - Bundles - Fileset decrypt and also Create.

Instead of 3 files as in the explanation I could find 4 files, I am able to decrypt them but when I want to create the bundle the device box

is greyed out but clicking on create I get the message 'Device, Version and Branding must be set', so I am stuck here.

I tried with an older version (0.9.13) but this one did not recognize my z1 compact.

So how to continue?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Crowds:
Try reinstall.

Everything works fine here. And seems most of users...
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
Not sure if this is the right thread so please delete if it is, has anyone got the amss.sin file to change the baseband to .52 ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Crowds:
From witch FW?
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
Its ok dont worry, the .52 baseband is the amss.sin from the Japanese firmware which first had multi touch, I have multi touch but just flashed the multi touch in using 2.2.1 freex10 beta3.

I am not to worried about it after checking.

thanks anyway
[Sony Cross-Device General] Crowds:

Anyway if you need that file in the future you may donwload from 435 FW in 1st post.

Dualtouch work on every app by default without MY_IMORTAL tweak

I am trying to flash the amss.sin only to my x10, trouble is when I click on flash it wont find the file in the firmware folder, anyone got any ideas ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] colossus:
Hi chiefy,

same with me, first of all i used the old flash not the new one and secondly i had to make a folder/put the sin file in then place it in the firmware, it then found it and i installed ok.;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
Where is the old flash tool ?

thanks
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
Hi chiefy009,

to flash only a set of sin files, you have to bundle them first.

In the flashtoo, go to the advanced menu -> bundle creation and point to the folder containing your sin files. Give your bundle a name (device, version, branding) and select from left list to right list the files you want to have in your bundle.

Once creation finished, you will see it when clicking the Flash button
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
So can I just flash the amss.sin on its own or do I have bundle it with anything else ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] colossus:
I will send you a link to my dropbox.
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
did you just flash that sin file nothing else ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Crowds:
Yes. Bundle them first
[Sony Cross-Device General] chiefy009:
Bundled the sin up got that sorted now the flasher tells me my phone is not in flash mod but the green led is on and I have held the back button ?

EDIT : changed USB ports found it flashed it job done thanks for all your help guys
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
turn your phone in flashmode only when the programs asks you about it. if the phone is not hooked by the program within 5 seconds more or less, the phone will boot into normal mode. Too early is not time and too late is not time either lol

The generic one has no apn preconfigured. I think you have an apn issue. When it works use apn backup&restore from the market and save your apn settings then install a generic bundle and use apn backup&restore to restore your apn settings
