so i was wondering since i have doomkernal on my z2 and was wanting to update my z2 to 4.4 cause i wanted better call quality but i don't know wether or not it would brick my phone so would it if i used the official updater to update my phone to 4.4?
You'll need to use the Sony Flash Tool if you want to update your unlocked bootloader device to the latest 314 firmware. But I believe that DooMKernel hasn't been updated to work with this 314 firmware (you will get bootloop if you update firmware and then flash the current DooMKernel).
So you either
(1) update to 314 and keep to stock kernel until DooMKernel is updated to work with 314 firmware
(2) wait for DooMKernel to be updated to support the 314 firmware before you update via Sony Flash Tool and then reflash DooMKernel.
Hello!
Today I get my Xperia Z2 branded by T-Mobile in Poland. I want to root without voiding my guaranty. I have FW 23.0.1.A.0.167 running Android 4.4.4. I'm know that i have to downgrade my firmware, but I can't find matching firmware for my device and brand. I've searched in this topic of course -
[FTF] STOCK FIRMWARES for Xperia Z2/Z2a (D65x3/D6502/SO-03F) [20141116]
Can somebody help me?
Greetings from Poland!
May I downgrade from 23.0.1.A.0.167 (4.4.4 update) to 17.1.2.A.0.314 Germany - unbranded - 1281-4640? Is that won't brick my device?

You can downgrade to any ftf until its for your model. you might want to try and use xperifirm for ftf download though. you might find your phone's ftf.
hello people
i bought a new z2 (D6502) and it came with 4.4.4 preinstalled
and i want to root the phone so after some searching i found out that i have to downgrade to .314
and i was wondering.would it be ok to flash a .314 D6503 frimware on my phone so i can root and flash a pre rooted .167?
because the weird thing is that i live in the middle east.my phone came with full arabic support but when searched here i couldn't find a D6502 firmware for middle east region that supports arabic .neither .314 or .167
only found such firmware for the D5603
how come then my phone fully supports arabic
thanx in advance
No you cant
The phone will still work but wifi and mobile data so its useless essentialy.
ok but then i can flash the pre rooted package from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/stock-4-4-4-23-0-1-0-167-bug-free-t2929402
and install the D6502 patch he provided
would that work
also.any idea then why then i have a 4.4.4 with full arabic support yet i cant find the ftf file in the stock firmwares thread
You should be good to flash that
And the FTF thread only has what people request usualy or need.
very well then i'll flash the D6503 .314 then flash the pre rooted package of .167 with D6502 patch
i now but i couldn't find it anywhere as well
is there a tool i can use to extract the current firmware on my device as a ftf file to keep it in case anything happened?perhaps upload it here as well so people like me in the ME can benefit from it
btw thanx alot for the help

Hello,
I was scrolling through here looking for a german unlocked Version for my z2.
I brought it in Australia and im just tired of waiting for Telstra to Release new Andeoid Updates.
So i wanted to Flash an unbranded Android onto my z2. I found an unbranded 23.1.A.0.690 Build. But the newest available is the 23.1.A.0.726
My question now is if i Flash my z2 with the. 690 will i be able to easyli update it to 726 Build with the Update Center?
Cheers,

If you flash a different ROM, i suggest you back up your FTF. To do that, search xda how to make an FTF.
You will need to revert back to your original firmware region to receive updates for that region or flash FTF via flashtool
Quote me in case you expect a reply!
Good Luck
Hi, I have a F5122 (dual) that started with 34.0.A.2.292-R6A firmware. I was playing around and flashed some other official firmware but now I want to go back so I can get the Nougat OTA, and I realized I am unable to download it!
xpericheck has it but it's hosted on Alfafile and I would rather not pay to download one file.
Does anyone else have a the ftf for 34.0.A.2.292-R6A, or another Nougat eligible version?
Or else does anyone know how if the Emma flashtool can be configured to flash my selected firmware instead of the developer version?
Cheers
