Anybody still have a 4.4.4 FTF file for the 521 model? All links are dead on here.
I updated using a new FTF file, but would like to downgrade again so I can install custom recovery again and flash a pre-rooted OS.
Thanks

Just downloaded 4.4.2 for XZU C6802, it has 2 files:
C6802 4.4 IN 757 odex ROMflash01.zip (1.02GB)
C6802_14.3.A.0.757_Generic IN kernelonly.ftf (11.3MB)
Questions:
1. Is this a official release? why not in ftf?
2. Why there is a extra kernel there?
3. Do I need to flash both of them? which should flash first?
4. Will it automatically in rooted state after flash?
5. Any other things need to notice?
Current State:
C6802_14.2.A.1.136, Rooted, Unlocked, CMW and TWRP both installed.
THANKS!
You've apparently downloaded a CMW file of the latest update. Why is there a stock kernel in the package? I don't know, but it doesn't hurt to have it. Just flash the ROM, and not the kernel. I assume the ROM has a kernel with CMW/TWRP, but we can't be sure until you try.
Is this the DL that came off a .cn forum?

Thanks.I found a explain and managed.
List for others:
1.Flash .zip (don't reboot after finished)
2.If want to keep recovery and root, flash FIX_Z1(ZU)-lockeddualrecovery2.7.115-BETA.flashable.zip (http://pan.baidu.com/s/1kTDiMiz).
3. switch off, enter flashing mode.
4. flash that ftf kernel.
5. Reboot, already in 757
Hey, so I was impatient of waiting for Lollipop on D6502, so I went to XperiaBlog and saw some people asking if they can flash the D6503 FTF to D6502, they said it was okay but your phone is from now on D6503 and you won't have 4G, but everything else will work. So I flashed it, my phone worked perfectly, only that I can't get a signal on my phone. WiFi works fine but cellular network has no signal. I am aware that there is a zip to flash to fix the modem issues on D6502, but that requires recovery and I haven't rooted to gain recovery nor will I plan to. Is there any way without rooting to flash the D6502 modem zip? I just cant stand it because without cellular the whole name called "phone" is just diminished. Thanks =)

That does not really help. Surely there has to be a way.
I forgot to mention I DID download the baseband patch but the D6503 ROM had only .sin and .ta files, while the patch had multiple folders and files with .b00, .b01, etc.
Is there a way to put the patch in the baseband folder then flash the ROM again? Thanks =)

There is a way root, install recovery and flash the zip.
If you don't want to that you could try and unpack the ftf, open the ftf replace the files and repack the ftf. I have no idea if that possible though. Google it.
Install some custom kernel that has recovery (that won't allow you to boot lollipop), flash the fix (eventually also root your device) , flash the original lollipop kernel and you should be done.

Couldn't I just wait though for the D6502 ftf for Lollipop to come and flash it? Would that fix the baseband problem?
If you're already on lollipop you won't get any update soon, only if you downgrade back to kitkat.

No, what I meant was I flashed D6503's lollipop. D6502's will be out in a week. I downloaded the D6503 ftf from XperiFirm AND CAN download the D6502's ftf when it comes out soon. I was asking if it was fine to flash 02 over 03 and not get any more problems. Thanks =)

Yeah sure, that'd work. Just make sure it's a clean flash. (Everything deleted on internal sd)

If your ROM is stock LB you can just flash the 4.4.4 ftf file using flashtool.

Hi guys may I request a flashable zip of the latest ftf for our z ultra? I am getting cant read byte error when trying to flash the ftf that I've downloaded using xperifirm.
If your rom is rooted try using the FlashFire. Im not sure but i think iy works with Sony.

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 with Android 4.4.4 KK already rooted.
Now I would like to upgrade my Android to the latest available stock Rom without losing root, DualRecovery or my data, in order to be able to use Magisk.
Could you tell me the best way to do that?? I assume I have to create a pre-rooted Firmware and upgrade through DualRecovery. How would I do that??
Thanks so much for your help in adavnce!
You can download the firmware you want from this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...-z2-d6503-customised-tur-23-5-t3442058/page10
Thanks, so I download the Firmware from the thread you linked to, Flash it with flashtool and that's it already??

Do I have to Flash bootfix, and supersu after this zip again?? I don't really understand the instructions in the other thread, because These zips are already included, so they should be flashed with the complete package or not??
Thanks, I clicked the button as well

There is no need to flash anything else just download the the customization you want(like Mena Arabic for persian language)and there is almost zero different between them
And flash it through recovery and there is no need for fix many times but if you got stuck in bootloop just flash the bootloop fix : https://mega.nz/#!AJcwERiQ!FUmk6eS5aoVsFSZ1f4WZIELIt7sckPCj11n0AIdCNzU
Okay thanks so much, this is what I thought. Download the zip, install via Recovery and thats it. Perfect
How did you root kitkat 4.4.4? Do you have pre root firmware for 4.4.4?
