sorry but those .sin files I already have, and I don't know how to install...
I could Provide a German Generic 2.1.1.A.0.6 ftf
for U20i
Could you? I, and many others, would be gratefull
Use the latest Flash tool.
1. Go to Advanced > Bundle creation.
2. Select the folder containing the .sin files.
3. Add all sins to firmware contents, provide the Device,version and branding.
4. Click Ok, It will convert the .sin to flashable files
5. Then Click on Flash, It should have a new flash-able firmware, you just created.
how many sin files there are? I have two...one with 12mb and another with 104 mb
and the flashtool doesn't recognize those files!
EDIT: Sorry, didn't work

Does anyone have the original kernel?
I could be blind but in all the kernel and roms pages I haven't yet seen a posting of the original...so how would you flash back? Just SEUS?
If you do a serious mod you should always have the original ready....
search ST15i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1251-0020).ftf for flash tool, that is the stock kernell
Are you sure? I thought that was the entire rom?
I upgraded to .62 then couldn't root so flashed .42 ftf and that was the entire rom.
Thanks
Just download semc .ftf, open it as .zip and search kernel.sin. Flash it via fastboot and you're fine!
this didn't work. I tried flashing just kernel and it flashed the whole rom anyway.

Did you extract only kernel.sin to the folder and flashed the whole rom?Maybe you have the whole rom on flash folder and somehow you flash it...?
What I have is a .42 ftf. So using the flash tool I selected only kernel.
Do you mean to open and extract the ftf? How do you do that? Windows has no idea how to open it.
Thanks
QeneX just told youRename it to blablabla.zip and then extract to some folder or right click open with whatever program you use (winrar 7zip etc) and extract files somewhere.Find kernel.sin and flash only that not the whole rom

Now I got it! That was the one vital piece of info. I was missing! I haven't renamed to .zip in a very long time...forgot you could do that. OK I just extracted the kernel.
Thanks thanks thanks!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you have a locked BL and you're rooted, if you install a Locked BL CWM, is other not the option in Advanced- Create firmware zip? Can someone do that for him?

In this case Im out of the game :crying:
Im so sorry but I cant help
I also faced that problem a while ago, as a stock update.zip would be very useful. Flashing a file via cwm is much more faster than booting up flashtool and flash a ftf file. I was able to extract the firmware files from a ftf file with flashtool but I just didn't know how to pack them into an update.zip. My main problem is that I didn't know how to set the permissions correctly.
EDIT: Ah. I think I found something out. This website sounds good. I think that is what you are looking for. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/easily-extract-ics-system-files-from-sony-xperia-ftf-files/
EDIT2: To build an update.zip package this could work. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/extract-ftf-files-and-turn-them-into-flashable-zips/
EDIT3: And with this tool you can unpack the ext4 files of a xu ics ftf file. http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidicsjbext/files/20130408/ext4_unpacker_exe.zip/download
EDIT4: I sum up the extraction process:
0. Get a ftf file(e.g. this generic ics ftf http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075526)
1. Get flashtool, 7zip and the ext4_unpacker(see above)
2. Open firmware ftf file with 7zip and extract system.sin
3. Flashtool->Tools->Sin Editor-> Select system.sin file. -> Dump data
4. Open extracted system.ext4 file with the ext4_unpacker and extract system files to a folder called system/.
Now anyone has to figure out how to create an update.zip file. I think that's the harder part.

This came out in man. Format ,
How do i get it to ftf format?
Firstly, sorry for bad english. Although I'll try to do my best here, I'm not american, nor english and I'm not very used with your language. My problem is simple and have been asked here before. The problem is that they guy who asked help wasn't very specific with his problem.
I have a ST25A, a latin american version of our Xperia U, which differs from your ST25i in its baseband (the modem). The ROMs we find here are all for ST25i and the baseband included is for the ST25i. Actually it kinda works with the ST25A model, but the signal is weak (even worse if you're not richie enough to pay for the best mobile service, which is my case).
Then I tried to flash the original ROM baseband for the ST25a, but for some reason, I wasn't able to boot my cellphone in flashmode. I tried everything I could try all around xda and other forums. Nothing worked. So, I couldn't use Flashtools to flash the baseband.
In another attempt, I tried to convert the original ROM from FTF (Sony format), to CWM, but I wasn't able to do that by myself (I'm not pro at this stuff and a friend of mine who knows about it a little better than me couldn't help either).
So I'm here creating this thread as my last attempt to have my ST25a with a CyanogenMod ROM, because without the right baseband it won't be possible. Below is a link of Sony's ST25a stock ROM:
http://sdrv.ms/1fDwMh1
(It's uploaded in my Skydrive account, so it shall not be a problem to download it)
I'm here to ask someone to convert it into something I can flash the baseband in my Sony Xperia U without needing the flashtool. To open the FTF file I used WinRAR (that actually seems to open every container format).
I don't know if I made myself clear, but it's not only a problem of mine, it probably is a problem all latin american owner of a Xperia U will have. If someone can help to extract the baseband and give me a tip on how to make it work in my Xperia U, I would really appreciate. If I didn't make myself clear enough for you to understand my problem, don't hesitate asking.
Thanks for your time and sorry for disturbing, oh, and Merry Christmas, ppl!
Peace,
Eduardo Barth.

You realy should explain what the problem is and how it is related to CynogenMod which for what I know change the system only.
What do you want a ST25i rom with ST25a modem? just copy the modem from the i ROM to the a ROM.
You do not realy need WinRAR or any other program, FTF is just a zip file, if you rename it to .zip you can just copy the files in windows explorer then rename it back to FTF (in command line)
Or you can just exclude the modem from flash when you flash ST25i RON and flash the modem only from the ST25a ROM.

The problem is that Sony's files have .SIN extension, which is not compatible with CWM recovery. I tried to convert it to CWM zip and had no success with that.
The main problem is that my cellphone doesn't recognize's the Flashtool, because it have a problem with it's USB connector. I can't simply flash the baseband, I need to convert the baseband form .SIN (sony) to CWM files. There are some tutorials that explain how to do that for the system partition, but I tried to do the steps for the baseband and it didn't work. That's why I'm here, trying to find help to do that.
My advise to you is, if you cannot flash with flashtool don't mess with your phone because if something will go wrong, abd something will go wrong, you lose your phone.

Yes, I know. The problem is that my phone currently is with a wrong baseband (modem) and the signal is always poor to gone, so I already have a dead brick in hands...
Anyway, thank you for your attention.
Could anyone link me to a guide or give some steps as on how to extract just the baseband from an ftf file and create a flashable zip?

Were you ever able to make one? I'm getting issues with data on tmobile with my Z2 on all non-stock roms. I'm clearly missing something but haven't found jack on the subject yet. Nobody's even responded once in weeks. This is bizarre.
No the guide didn't work the same for z2 ftf files unfortunately.
Hello!
I have a wifi version Z4 tablet purchased in germany. I am looking at upgrading to the UK firmware because it is newer than the one for German model. Does anyone know if this will work, and if so, do you have any pointers???
Thanks in advance!
I am on swiss (CH) version for the same reasons.
Just try it and tell us.
If you do not like it you go back to the ROM you have now.
Seems that the newer flashtool version will support our tablet z4 but i´m not sure what has to be done since a FSC file is now needed...
Done!
Just followed instructions I found on the Internet and it worked!
So anyone can upload the needed template script for Tablet Z4 LTE 771?
get the latest flashtool

I'm using latest flashtool but template file is needed i think. Can't flash without it
I bought USA version of Xperia Z4 Tablet and have to install Russian version of firmware. I downloaded SGP712_CIS RU-UA-KZ-BY_1295-7241_28.0.A.8.260_R6A and used flashtool 0.9.22.3 to make and flash ftf.
1. flashtool asked me: "A FSC script is found: default.fsc. Do you want to add it?". Am I need to use it or I have to make ftf file without default.fsc script?
2. When I tried to flash produced ftf file flashtool asked: "Those data are not in the FSC script and will be skipped: B2B.". Is it safe to flash this ftf?
please do some research...
