Hi.

50.2.fsc is missing for Sony Xperia XA2 H3113

Did a downgrade on my Xperia XA2 (H3113) to Oreo using Flash Tool. Worked fine!

Now I need to upgrade again. Want to flash most recent version (50.2.A.3.77-R1B). Downloaded Firmware with Xperifirm. Created a Bundle. But when flashing Flash Tool says:

So I choose to continue … but it still exits with an error:

(...)
INFO - Start Flashing
INFO - Parsing boot delivery
INFO - Found a boot delivery
ERROR - No flash script found. Flash script is mandatory
INFO - Sending Sync
INFO - Sync status : OKAY
INFO - Sending powerdown
INFO - powerdown status : OKAY
INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off

… if I am right, this means that Flash Tool is missing the right .fsc file.

> Looking up in the folder: ~/.flashTool/H3113/ ... there is only 50.1.fsc.

> Updating via "Devices > Devices Sync > Manual Sync" did not bring up any further .fsc file.

> Looking at github: https://github.com/Androxyde/devices I could not find the right .fsc either.

50.2.fsc is missing for Sony Xperia XA2 H3113

Can somebody supply such a file?

Would be great!

Thanks in advance... :)

Hope someone could help us out please, I have been trying to flash a Sony Xperia L4 for a few days now, as I have locked myself out and cannot remember the Gmail account linked to the phone, I have managed to get into Android recovery and wiped/ installed but when it starts back up its still asking for the Gmail to get it going again. I keep getting to the same point on the Flashtool but it won't load up any files as shown in the image, I have downloaded a few different firmware using Xperifirm but still the same problem, any ideas where i have gone, wrong guys?
[Sony Cross-Device General] sidneylopsides:
It's possible the L4 is tied to the Google account and resetting won't solve it. I have an old Z3+ that's locked out because of a forgotten account.

Hello, nothing happens when I click the XperiFirm button.

It appears there is no XperiFirm in the install directory. I can download it and run it separately, but I liked the integration.

Hey, for info there is an issue to create the *.ftf file in the windows explorer when the market/operator variables have "/" inside it ; of course Windows is not accepting files with this character so it results an error :

Trying to use this programme again, used so many times in the past [ many thanks for that]

But after getting an XA2 , I found it impossible to use.

I started using NewFlasher but I hard bricked one XA2 before getting LIneageOS onto another.

This worked well for two years then tried to get the latest version on that before bricking that one a few weeks ago.

I tried to use Flashtool on a 10 Plus but no joy so reverted back to NewFlasher and I thought I bricked my new 10 Plus. Fortunately just a combo of bootloop and dead battery but I really do not want to use NewFlasher cause it's far to easy to get it wrong.

I had flashed firmware 53.1.A.3.105 with Newfasher and have tried a repair with EMMA but this is only firmware 53.1.A.2.2 the software is glitchy [ UI keeps stopping , Phone doesn't work, random crashes]

Can't seem to create my own tft files it just stops loading files with boot files [ this was with the latest Flashtool]

So managed to find 53.1.A.3.105 tft online but this wouldn't flash without fsc file. Tried to make one of these but USB logger didn't see anything before PC companion told me I can't use their service because my Bootloader is unlocked.

Tried an old version of Flashtool but this doesn't recognize the bundle.

Any vids on how to do this without PC companion this would good as there is 196 pages on this thread

Could I get some help with this on Linux please? I just downloaded version 0.9.33.0. However, when I try to run the Flashtool script, I get;

Error: dl failure on line 534
Error: failed /home/Desktop/xperifirm/FlashTool/x10flasher_native/jre/lib/server/libjvm.so, because /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by /home/msi/Desktop/xperifirm/FlashTool/x10flasher_native/jre/lib/server/libjvm.so)

When I try to execute the .jar file I get;

I already updated Java and I'm completely stuck at this point. Also, since I am trying to reinstall the stock Sony firmware after having installed LineageOS, do I need to do anything with the custom recovery image I installed alongside LOS or does Flashtool sort that automatically?

Hi,

I'm using the latest flashtool compatible with win xp sp3. I'm getting an issue no longer able to download a rom from xperifirm, it said no connection, but long before it's fine & I don't do any modification to my pc. Is there any solution for this ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ecksdeeay:
Stop using WinXP
[Sony Cross-Device General] zputnyq:
Is there any other solution, so I don't need to borrow someone's pc, I only have pc with win xp ?

Or flashtool/xperifirm really stop supporting for win xp here ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ecksdeeay:
It was just my hunch/guess...
[Sony Cross-Device General] zputnyq:
No problem, just asking.

I can't find any information about minimum system requirement so far & I don't know why flashtool/xperifirm stop showing roms.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ecksdeeay:
Download it (Xperifirm) separately

Not sure where I should be asking this, but is there any way to add another device into Flashtool so I can use it with my Xperia 5 III?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Ulumia:
Hi all! What should I do if Flashtool doesn't see .ftf files? I tried 0.9.35 from GitHub and 0.9.33 from repositories and it doesn't help

I'm using the latest Xubuntu
[Sony Cross-Device General] DHGE:
Use Windows.

I did not flash SONY ROMs in the last two years but switched to newflasher since this runs on Linux straight from the command line and did not give me issues as the later Flashtool versions on Linux.

The older unproblematic versions did not keep with the new SONY devices and changes on their infrastructure.

The only SONY device I still have is on a soso maintained LineageOS and there I use TWRP if the Lineage updater does not work.

You can use TWRP as basic as fastboot boot TWRP.img if you have to.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Ulumia:
I can't use TWRP because I have an Xperia X8 from the 2010 line
[Sony Cross-Device General] MiniGNU:
I got an issue with flashing my XZ Dual (F8332) to stock via FlashTool after using custom ROMs. Almost all custom ROMs created for single sim phones with patches for dual sim. Because of this Dual sim phones recognizes by flashtool like single sim (F8331 in my case).

And it is not possible to flash stock firmware for dual beause of error:

ERROR - The bundle does not match the connected device

I tried to flash stock kernel from dual sim firmware, but nothing changed. F8332 still recognized as F8331.

How it can be fixed?

I bought a Sony Xperia Z2 when it came out there in 2014, but in 2016 I broke its screen and until this year I was able to get its original spare part. I want to update my Sony device so I ask you, is it still useful to create an installable file from the xperifirm application?

Is it the same steps from 8 years ago to update my device?

are there any plans to bring out a Linux version of this?

i realise it may be a big job, but i find it ironic that i require a Windows PC to update my linux Based phone. i run ubuntu and my housemate is a mac fan.

can anyone point me in the right direction? i would really love to have MT on my phone but cant get near a Windows PC that has the right permissions to do this.

hi

i just updated my x10 with seus to the newest firm.

baseband 2.0.49

kernel 2.6.29

build 2.0.2.A.0.24

after the update i was not able to get into the xrecovery menu by pressing the back button while booting.

any advice? i have busybox installed and xrecovery from the new flashtool 0.2.3

thx in advance

btw. before the update i was able to get into the xrecovery screen.
[Sony Cross-Device General] wolter.kruger:
FlashTool to be used for rooting only?

I'm a bit confused after reading through many threads. Hopefully someone can tell me if I've got the following right:

I'm running an original 2.0.A.0.504, on a X10. What I want to have is the Eminence ROM. What I now believe I have to do:

step 1. Root my X10 (got it a few days ago, so no userdata issues)

step 2. Backup APN (telecom settings) data, so I will be able to make phone calls and use internet/3G/HDSPA afterwards

step 3. continue as this guy says. (oops, not allowed to post links yet, but it is post number 2059098 on androidforums dot com.

My questions:

1. Can I use the FlashTool to do nothing but root my X10 (step 1)? It looks like the most convenient tool around. I understand that i must first install (and use) SEUS (sony ericson update service) to provide the right drivers.

2. If yes, is it unrootable?

3. Am I correct when I think that you cannot use this tool to flash custom roms like Eminence because they are not 'signed'?

Thanks for all your help.
[Sony Cross-Device General] svprm:
Really very nice tools.

I have latest official rom.

Today I rooted my phone with this tool.

Worked.

Flashtool looks to work but nothing done

Hi there!

After some research in several posts, I tried the new flashtool 0.2.3 on my X10 Mini Pro U20a, but after the whole process when I reboot my X10, it has nothing done. do I am doing something wrong? my steps are:

turn off my phone

Run Flashtool

Connect button>x10mini pro

press back key

plug the USB

green light gets on,

Flash button with>X10a_2_0_2_A_0_24 Generic

then it says:

:-D try to install a windows XP in a virtualbox and run it in the virtual environment.

The tool works under linux BUT without the Flash task wich relies on a windows DLL where we do not have the source code. Maybe it can run with Wine ... never tested it.

But if you only have a linux box, virtualbox can be a solution.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Hawkysoft:
what virii scanner do you use? cuz every single one that i do own doesnt report this file.... so it must be that your scanner = failing u bigtime....

or.... its cuz ur to close to ab woensdrecht. LOL

oh for the virii scanner i recommend avira, since its free and got daily updates, so far never failed on me

p.s. the virii scanner probably detects its an exe, since its very easy to spread a virus by only downloading one, it probably get seen as a so called "dangerous/suspicious file".

so u could also just deactivate it before u download it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
The flashtool can do a root only task without any problem, as far as ADB drivers are installed (nothing to do with USB flash drivers which are the ones needed for flashing)

So if your phone is fully recognized when plugging it with USB debug mode on, the tool will work for rooting.

Any rom based on xRecovery are not flashable with this tool.
[Sony Cross-Device General] wolter.kruger:
OK, the adb (android debug bridge) drivers, are they included in the FlashTool (I see two adbwin*.dll files are included), or should I get them elsewhere?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
The adbwin*.dll are libraries used by the adb.exe command.

Open a command prompt and CD to the x10flasher_lib folder. Then issue an adb devices command. If the List of devices attached is empty, so your device is not seen by adb.

X10 ADB drivers are not included in the flashtool.

am with MIUI rom which already have busybox builtin n not accepte to install or update the busybox nor xrecovery so with new version of FT my rom crash coz it make update itself with busybox so how can i remove this option

If you already are with a custom ROM, what do you need the FT for ?

[Sony Cross-Device General] ST4YSTR0NG:
For some reason when I click either Ask Root Perms or Optimize and when I reboot my phone it gets stuck at SE logo.

This happened on FreeX10 beta3 with GreenGlow 1.3.

I wanted to update my xRecovery to 0.3 from 0.2 but this has happened twice so far. First after clicking Ask Root Perms can I install xRecovery and it does install but when I have restored to a backup it goes back to 0.2 xRecovery.

Is there something I should do?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
You can't install xRecovery when you are on a custom rom ... as well as you can't install busybox too :-)

installing xRecovery will replace your chargemon script and you will loose the boot into custom rom.

Anyway, as far as you don't have any bug with your xRecovery, why upgrading ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] peo306:
for example today i want to update my BB 58 so am used old version of FT 2.6

so i think it's logical to make the instellation of busy box optional it's better

Baseband upgrade ok but as I already said if you don't have any bug due to xrecovery or busybox, no need to update them :-)

In a future release I will make it work with custom roms ;-)

hi all, I just switched my computer with my sister's. I was using windows 7 at my old one and this tool worked perfect. but now I can't use it because of the broken DVD ROM. so I decided to use windows XP. then, when I want to flash my x10i with this tool, it doesn't read my phone anymore. It keeps writing "ERROR... seaching for xperia..." even if I've connected my phone via USB and put my phone into flash mode. (PC companion can read)

At first try flashing, there's a prompt said "SEMC no installed, won't work properly" or something like that. what does that means? any solutions? thanks.

EDIT: do I have to install SDK? ADB?
[Sony Cross-Device General] canuckken:
I am having big problems getting my x10 updated. I have tried since I came home from work at 5pm and it is now 2am. I bought a Rogers x10 last year and Flashed is successfully with x10i baseband 1.1.25, kernel version 2.6.29-rel and build number R2BA020.

Now nothing I do to update this works. The first thing that happens when i run the flashtool is i get this error message see this screenshot.

The second problem is booting into flash mode. I am at the point where I am willing to pay someone if they can fix my phone and upgrade the firmware because I am not having any luck with it. Any takers? Preferably in Alberta and Edmonton even better.
[Sony Cross-Device General] wombat131:
What have you done up until now? I guess you've tried reflashing with SEUS or repair with pc-companion? I've seen the build.prop error and I managed to fix it with Seus (reflashing it twice).
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
Try to install these drivers in the drivers folder :

ggsetup-2.2.0.10.exe
[Sony Cross-Device General] canuckken:
Yes I have tried with both of those the last being SEUS. I can only get to step 2 and when I try booting into Flash mode by turning off and holding the back button while plugging in the usb it will not continue to step 3. I am wondering if my phone is booting flash mode successfully. It seams to be a normal boot even if I remove the battery instead of just turning off or even if i use different USB ports. The computer recognizes the phone fine but its as if the software does not. I don't know though I am just grasping at straws at this point.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
When you boot in flash mode, you have the green light on and a black screen. There is a timeout for flashmode. If no software get a handle on the device within this timeout delay, the phone will continue booting in normal mode.

It really looks like a driver problem. Open your device manager and then go to flashmode (even without any attempt to flash) and look if you have a device with a yellow question mark while in flash mode ?

link dead can't download flashtool :confused:
[Sony Cross-Device General] ST4YSTR0NG:
I guess I don't have to upgrade, I just felt like it. But right I have switched to SE's stock ROM, is it where you upgrade xRecovery then?

can you please make a detail? where can I found ggsetup-2.2.0.10.exe?
