Hello everyone!
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but here goes nothing:
I'm trying to update from version 32.0.A.6.152 to 32.0.A.6.200. When it completes downloading the update, it just stops and says: "Could not verify" and no other details.
And yes, I've unlocked the bootloader, if that matters. I'd really love to have the update, is there any workarounds or solutions for this?
Thanks in advance!
E: So there was a subsection for questions too... Silly me. Mods please move?

I'm not entirely sure so anyone,correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the reason it won't install is because of root and/or unlocked.
You can download via xperifirm and flash via flashtool.
If u don't know how, try to search a bit because there are plenty of guides about it.
BTW, when u open this thread in browser you can click the triangle "!" button below your post to report it for thread moving.
I could do that too but I prefer to tell you so you can request a moving yourself

I still need some help with the Flashtool. Did I build the .ftf right if I choose everything but the .ta files (following this guide)? Also, which things should I wipe when selecting firmware? There's APPS_LOG, DIAG, SSD and USERDATA.
Also, does this seem like a good output when starting?

My device I think is in MTP mode currently, does it affect the flashing?
I'd really appreciate the help, I'm very beginner in flashing roms and don't want to brick my phone.

Hey XDA Community
I had to get a replacement Sony Xperia Z Ultra recently due to a fault and have now received a new handset but i am having alot of trouble with it this time round when it comes to either flashing/rooting/unlocking
heres my previous thread i made before
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446766&highlight=unbranded
I cant for the life of me flash this new handset :S
All drivers are installed correctly, and have latest version of flashtool even updated the handset to the latest
build number 14.1.B.2.257
I keep getting the message saying error please install drivers etc etc
but the drivers are installed and correct
also i tryed to root the phone but no success as i think i read the build number i am now on cant be rooted so fair enough, i wanna flash this phone with the unbranded file in my previous thread but i seem to be stuck as i cant get the flashtool to work
is there another way
Hey hey! I got the same problem as you and guess what, it was Flashtools fault.
I installed 3 different versions and flashtool-0.9.12.1-windows worked for me!
So I recommend that you try 11, 12 and the latest being 13.
cools i did try another version but got the same crap will try other versions of flashtool
damn... same problem get the same message install drivers flash aborted

And you're 100% sure that you installed the drivers from the folder? So when you connect the phone there aren't any triangles in device manager? I had loads of trouble installing drivers and then realized I had to turn off driver signature check on Windows 8.
When I installed drivers I could flash with version 12. I really just recommend you to uninstall and reinstall. I reinstalled a couple times.
Makes me wonder why.
i just updated to windows 8.1 how do i turn off signature check?
i managed to get it turned off now and drivers are installed now but still get the same message

Reinstall Flashtool. Reinstall between 12 and 13 a couple times.
Thats what I did.
got it all working now

I disabled driver signature verification (by googling 'disable driver signature windows 8.1'), then re-installed the drivers (Flashtool-drivers-1.5-20140318.exe in my case, but you should try with the latest ones!), then it worked.
bcdedit is your friend. See this: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff553484(v=vs.85).aspx
Gesendet von meinem Xperia Z Ultra
you can find the driver in local disk C or program file where you have install flashtool, you can find file driver, and then you open flashtool-driver.exe, just follow prosedure (click next) choose your type driver and finish it until the end.
after that you just flash the phone as usual.
Is there a possibility to force ROM installation from a zip file via twrp?
I'm trying to install a ROM for Z Ultra, but twrp gives me a message that my device is honami.
I tried flashing boot.img. Can't flash firmware because I can't enter flash mode (green light just blinks and that's it).
So is it possible to install ROM for togari despite twrp thinks its honami?
Right now I've got AOSP Nougat installed using flashboot.
I'm sick of playing with it. Just want a fully working soft on my phone.
Thank you in advance!
What did you do to end up getting this message? I know this was a common error back in the early days of the honami and z ultra when porting roms from the honami. But not very common today.
Or what .zip are you trying to flash?
What is the name of the .zip file?

Thank you for your response.
I'm trying to flash ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.6.8-20160508-togari.zip with TWRP3.0.2.0. I tried with other ROMs but with no success. Every time ERROR 7 shows up. Previously there was 4.4.2 (or something like this) running well on this device.
Can this "honami problem" be caused by the wrong firmware?

It seems like you are on a very old firmware and need to flash the latest stock rom for the togari before flashing the rom.
Download flashtool from here: http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php ..via torrent is the fastest option to download the software.
Here is a video on how to use the program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PQVTgYbg_U ...can't find a recent guide on a new version of flashtool with androxyde. But you get the idea by looking at the video..
However I have never heard of the green blinking light issue on the togari.
Here is a thread for the honami: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xper...-notification-light-It-s-at-70-80/td-p/404435

Thank you again. I really appreciate your every second spent to help me.
Every time I try to download a firmware I end up with "Error occurred while unpacking". Tried to create a bundle from what Flashtool managed to unpack anyway, but I've got another problem flashing firmware. No matter what firmware I flash I get this:

No matter which FW I try to flash, I always end up with this. Firmwares I tried:
C6833_14.1.B.1.532_NUT.ftf
C6833_14.4.A.0.108_Euro LTEStripped.ftf
C6833_14.6.A.1.236_R5D_O2 Pay monthly UK_1274-8332.ftf (I'm not sure if the package was made correctly due to an error while unpacking it just after downloading with xperifirm)
Driver I've got in device manager:
Sony sa109 ADB Interface Driver - the same I'm using with fastboot. Is that correct?
I really did a lot of research and tried a lot of things during last couple of days but I've got a feeling I'm not smart enough to handle this or my device is really f**ked up.
As I said at the beginning, I'm sick of it and now I'm trying to find a way to bypass the TWRP ERROR 7 (the one about honami device). Why I'm doing this is because I can flash everything with fastboot (like AOSP 6.0 and 7.0 from *.img files). I believe there is no such possibility as you didn't mention it.
About the blinking light, what I do is holding Vol- button and plugging the cable. After that in a second red light blinks, then green light blinks and that's it. Green one doesn't keep glowing but as you can see in the log, phone seems to be connected in flash mode.
Thank you so much again.
Oh, I'm on win10 x64 and always using USB2.0 to connect the ZU.
EDIT:
Ok, I managed to successfully download another firmware using XperiFirm (for C6802 this time) and the bundle created by itself after downloading process, but when I try to flash it I still get this:

You're using the wrong driver. There is a driver install pack when you install flashtool to be found in C:/FlashTool/drivers. Execute the file and scroll down the list to find the Z ultra. Tick the alternative. You can also tick in the flashmode driver visible somewhere in the list. Just to be sure.
Now when its finished installing the drivers. Turn the phone off. And do not boot the phone to fastboot. But to flashmode.
This is volume down and plug in the cable. Then you will see a flash of colors on the notification light and then it will shut off the lamp.
In flashtool you should now see in the log something like: Z ultra connected in flashmode.
Now go ahead and flash the ftf file again.
If this don't work. Uninstall ALL drivers related to android and start from scratch and install the drivers from C:/FlashTool/drivers to get a clean install. Or connect the phone in flashmode and go to device manager and look what you see on the z ultra.
The device should say S1 boot device. Then the correct driver is used. Otherwise its the wrong driver if it says something else.
Edit:
In the first log its says:
31/040/2017 05:40:49 - INFO - Selected Bundle for Sony Xperia Z Ultra (C6833). FW release : 14.6.A.1.236_R5D. Customization : O2 Pay monthly UK_1274-8332
But in the second log it says:
31/016/2017 06:16:17 - INFO - Selected Bundle for Sony Xperia Z Ultra (C6802). FW release : 14.6.A.1.236. Customization : Customized US
You downloaded two different .ftf files for two different models with two different customization. One for O2 in United Kingdom and the other for United States.
What model do you have? And where do you live?
Your advice about the driver was right :/ Thank you so much. Can't believe I lost so much time just because of silly thing like that.
About .tft files, I wanted to try another firmwares just to see what will happen.
Thanks again for all your help and time!
Hello..
Please Help... i am not very good in sofware but i always keen in learning and XDA forum gave me knowledge best required in android world. With this confidence i had success in rooting galaxy n7000, asus max, galaxy plus ... with sony xperia z2 i was skeptical but i took the challenge, i unlock the phone and followed the steps for rooting "(Tool) (Locked & Unlocked BL) root and recovery for 23.5.A.1.291 WITHOUT downgrade ! by By rocker00," and boom goofed up. I tried to flash ftf stock with flash tool it gives error root access denied. Pulling my hair what to do i tried to figure out but in vain. I send the phone to service centre they say that mother board , battery issue has to be replaced estimated charges so high that i could buy new phone. My gut feeling, this being software issue can be solved. Hence, i plug again to Flash tool where it gave me report as under. The phone does not response to any buttons but when connected the led light red blinks indicating battery charging. the flash tool giving report.... hence its still breathing.. how to make it active and playfull wondering.. Hoping forum can do the magic for me.....

If LED was blinking red, it is no sign for charging, instead it indicate kernel error (soft brick), follow my advice above and see if it works.

Yes you definitely should.
In flashtool menu, you have to INCLUDE all and EXCLUDE none when flashing a FTF.
Please use flashtool v0.9.18.6 for stable result.

Did you read what it says at the beginning of the Flashtool download page?
It clearly says: C4 and C5 users please do not flash using Flashtool. It will brick the device. M5 users please do use FSC when flashing or it will brick your device.
You can only use Flashtool version 0.9.18.x on the C5 Ultra, to avoid a hardbrick
At the same time you mention that the LED changes from red to green, then your mobile has not yet died.
Now, just uninstall the Version of Flashtool you have completely, search for and install the 0.9.18.x, and follow the normal flashing process.
EDIT: Remember to close Xperia Companion completely, to avoid interference with the flashing process

Greetings,
am facing the same problem, but am actually am using flashtool 0.9.18.5,
yet flashtool stuck at "opening device" for more than hour , then error loader.sin.
any idea how to solve ?
so, i wanna flash android kitkat on my xperia ultra z using flashtool, but everytime i try, i get a error like: this bundle is not valid!

forgot to point out, its not the flashtool for s1 devices or whatever, its the sony mobile flasher by androxyde
The error is for the rooting option, just wait for it to prepare the files and after a few minutes it should show you the pop up window to connect your phone and hold the buttons.
Also 9.18 had some problems I'd recommend using 9.15 for flashing Kitkat.

I wish you luck, if you've replaced your broken display before it doesn't work with custom roms. Only the stock roms and a few custom ones based on stock will work. Also saw someone using Xperia companion to fix things but you have re-lock your bootloader.
