I found that this phone is actually a prototype, but model is D6503... So i wanna flash a official firmware via FLASHTOOL [FTF]... I heard that it will work even if device have unlocked bootloader... So should I flash it or not?
Thanks

Prototype or not, dev device or not, unlocked bootloader or not this doesnt affect the usage of flashtool
However windows 8 and lacking drivers may hinder anything untill actualy sorting out what is in the way
Ok, I ve flashed it, downloaded from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759934
But, again I downloaded prototype firmware, so can you, or someone, just send me link of retail firmware (Android version 4.4.2) unbranded for D6503, I cant find...
Thank you!!!

One more users who has rooted and unlocked bl and all ......experiences same problem .... his s1 boot version and ets software version are same as mine .... so is it like all people who have unlocked bl have same s1 and ets ( coz they must have downgraded with same fw or something ).........

Its not really a big deal, you can change in anytime from your build.prop
I think the real one is printed on the back of your cell, remove your battery and see

-I was originally on a .58 PH Generic Firmware and updated to .62 via PCC . mad: i don't have any screenshot)
-I rooted it. I followed this thread: Rooting live WT19i 4.0.2.A.0.62 above without unlock bootloader for Noob<< this one is UK Generic
-I wanted to have .62 PH Generic Firmware. I downgraded it back to the .58 UK Generic and changed CDA to 1254-1952(PH Generic). I updated it via SUS. I noticed that ETS and S1 Boot Ver. didn't change when i was on .62 UK Generic.
I will try to ask the others what they've done with their phones too.
yup so common thing we have done is flash .58 from that thread ......
Another common thing is that we both came from .58 and thn upgraded via pcc and then did all that stuff..... where as my friend's phone came with stock .62 ...... did ur friend's phone also came with stock .62 ??? i think that might be the diff ..

Phone: WT19i
His phone came with a .58 stock PH Generic Firmware.
He upgraded to .62 via OTA.
He followed the same thread to root his phone.
He downgraded again to .58 UK Generic via flashtool.
He edited his build.prop to PH Generic and repair/update via SUS.
His s1 boot version and ETS is the same when he first bought his phone.

Mine:
We pretty did the same thing w/ our phones.
Another phone:
This one came w/ .58 and updated to .62 via PCC. Never been touched.
Dammit y is ours different thn !!!!
can u ask one of them to make .ftf of their firmware from se update service ...... if they dont know i can post a link here... its really simple...... only their phones will be reset...... Please if u can ask them thn this issue will be solved once and for all.....

Okay. I will post it here. I'll test it first.
Hi. I have requested a firmware file already.
Bad news: Still the same S1 Boot Version and ETS Software Version.
So, it's NOT with the firmware that you install.
I'm thinking, could this be because of the flashtool version?

Maybe someone who knows the workaround of flashtool could help us with this or the dev himself.
No, Flashtool can't make modifications self. Only writes the .ftf file to phone.

You sure that they backed up the firmware right ?? Then maybe its 2 types... some have that and some have this....... Other users please report your S1 Boot Version and ETS Software version.

I am getting really irritated of the amount of totally nonsense information out there, and no real or "official" way for unlocking bootloader for Xperia Go. Can someone please help me so I can unlock my bootloader? All I see are guides with massive walls of text, nothing official stated about Xperia Go. I don't want to screw my phone up by doing some mistake by myself -_- so can somebody PLEASE tell me how?
Hey,
Before I can help you, I need to know which build you are on.
The 3 common builds are
6.0.B.3.184
6.1.1.B.1.10
6.1.1.B.1.54
To check it, go to Settings>About Phone then scroll to the bottom and read the number then post it here.
Also, tell me what OS you are running, The fastboot drivers required to unlock it doesn't work in Windows 8 unless you enable test mode for windows 8.
Additional information on how to unlock the boot loader can be found on the Sony Developers page.
Note: If you want to root it, DO NOT flash the version 6.1.1.B.1.54. Because Sony patched the exploit.
Hi thank you for replying, I swear that I have searched information for HOURS and I learned that it is not easy to find for Xperia Go.. :S as it is for some more known models.
Here is the info
Model: ST27i
Software version: 6.0.B.3.184
I use Windows 7 on my PC, also I have downloaded Flash Tool 0.9.8.0 by Bin4ry & Androxyde (it shows 0.9.9.0 update is available, should I update it?)
Edit: unlocked myself already

Yes, you can use that Flashtool too. But you'll need to find the FTF file to flash.
You can flash even though you're on custom kernel. But you'll have to reflash the custom kernel after the update.

No, it will not automatically find the firmware for your region. You will have to find it yourself, either from XDA or the function within Flashtool (Devices > Check Update). Using the Sony Flash Tool is easier.

Great I'm gonna unlock my bootloader and test. Is twrp available?
Everything is working great. Im rooted and have xposed installed
This works for any single slim XA ultra? including the F3213? On any firmware?
Are there any written instructions?
Video instructions are hard to follow, especially 20 minute ones and the quality is pretty bad.
I still appreciate the work you put in though regardless.
Thanks.

U can find stock fw if u get flashtool..xperifirm was integrate in flashtool and u can download fw from there..
f3213 rooted and twrp'ed!
After many hours of googling I finally took the chance and used these instructions to root my f3213. I was concerned that the threads referenced did not reference the f3213 specifically and they were several months old. However, it worked like a champ. Thanks to the OP.

Hi, there is no modified boot for 36.0.A.2.146 that's probably why you have a bootloop.
Download 36.0.A.2.123 firmware with Xperifirm inclued with Flashtool.

Try to boot in fastboot mode and enter "fastboot oem unlock" without quotes. If it returns an error with (not necessary) at the end you bootloader is already unlocked.
I used this guide to root and update to .114 for F3213 a long time ago. How do I update to latest and keep all my files and root now? I have TWRP, do I just need to flash something?
Help with rooting on: F3211 36.0.A.2.146
From what i understand from this thread, this boot image does not work for 36.0.A.2.146.
I have unlocked my bootloader and flashed twrp but as i try to boot into it (according to step 9 in the guide) my phone just goes black for 1 sec and then reboots normally. I gues that is what the boot image is for.
I cannot boot it directly from fastboot using the "boot" flag because it complains about bootloader even tho it is unlocked according according to *#*#7378423#*#* and according to fastboot itself, when i try to unlock it again it says "FAILED (remote: Not necessary)".
Basically the situation seems like the one you described in:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xa/help/unlocked-bl-help-root-recovery-t3411573
When I flash a boot image I just get a boot loop. So I have flashed my phone back to stock using flashtool to: F3211 36.0.A.2.146 /R6 (nordic version). Could you provide a boot image for 36.0.A.2.146? Or could someone tell me how rooting can be done on this version or provide a link for an older version? As it seems that XperiFirm only has the latest version. I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Hello, i got a nice Sony Xperia X10 mini with Android 2.1 update 1 and want to update to any Android 4.4. So i choose the PureSlim R4 for Robyn with the Pure GoogleApps for my phone.
But i cant work with FlashTool 0.9.22.3 i cant root my phone. I got the errormessag: ERROR - Illegal key size or default parameters. With SuperUser and SuperSU both the same result. How to install a new flash then? Do i need an older version of FlashTool? All tutorials are with links for flashtool in GitHub. But this links are broken.
Thanks for every hint to get a newer rom to my phone. USB Debugging is activated of course.
