No mate. Will erase all your data (except files on internal storage).
My advice is to save photos etc on pc and do a factory reset. After that you will have your phone exactly as mom sony produced it ( except unlocked bootloader).
If i can help you any further let me know

Flashing firmware don't change "internal storage" just "device memory", but you'd lose apps and settings.
Titanium back can restore apps and settings but you have to approve installation of each app again and it takes a lot of time. The phone must also be rooted. For apps settings it should be ok.
Usually PlayStore install all my apps after flashing firmware. I think you need the acount backed up on google servers.
I tried to flash (using flashtool) the latest MM firmware flashing went good until I turned on the phone.
I got a warning I thing it was (something (I fogot T_T))media has stopped then it started bootlooping. then I flashed back the N firmware found that it didn't erase what was on my phone like it use to do with the Z2;
So, is there any proper way to downgrade?
F5122 - 34.2.A.0.292 (unrooted//LB)
Try different MM FW , or try again same, I got bootloop also on first time, second time it worked and I was able to get DRM keys out. When you flashed did you checked eveything on Wipe Sin table?

When you do a downgrade you need to select everything in WIPE section. You can try leaveing the UserData unticked (hopefully it won't bootloop) but it would be safer to wipe it clean.

CONFIRMATION OF TA RESTORE!
- Ran tool on Xperia X

- Pushed TAbackup.img (I renamed it) to /data/local/tmp and verified md5sum is same as original backup.
- Did
Code:
adb shell dd if=/data/local/tmp/TAbackup.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/TA

Get Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde, (latest is 0.9.23.2 built on 19-01-2017 21:50:00) this includes XperiFirm (5.0.0) , check versions, and hopefully you can find some MM versions there, maybe your MM is 34.0. A..., I found some for F5121

there is xperifirm standalone app, download it and try it
downloading and flashing MM
i have checking the Xperifirm , and unfortunately it seems as though Sony have removed it. i did however download and try the MM from (for TA backup): xperiarom.com/sony-xperia-x-f5121-stock-firmware-marshmallow-6-0-1-34-0-1-277/4-0-1-277/
the flash went successful, (apart from one or two warnings or something in Flashtool).BUT, i had the same waring as you, something along the line of "your device is corrupt, and may not function properly. press power button to continue."
after pressing it, it just showed blank screen. i then tired flashing the official firmware (Nougat) which i made using the Xperifirm and Flashtool. the same things happened, i got the warning message and a blank screen. thus i used Sony Companion software repair to restore and i'm back to crappy Nougat.
it would be good if i could have some more information on how you flashed it, or if someone can tell me how to flash properly. Maybe when flashing MM, i didn't check the wipe boxes (like that other guy mentioned in the thread, which i will try once i have free time). And it may be that the Nougat software created, was improper.
any information would be great, thanks!

You need to check the wipes except the TA wipe, I don't have flashtool on my work pc so, I'll update this with a screenshot the things you need to wipe before downgrading to MM;
dont forget to add script =-= and you must wipe everything to skip bootloop.

how to downgrade/flash MM (Marshmallow)
Thank you algnerd & max26292 for your guys help! really i appreciate it so much!
Here's what happened, as you guy said to basically select everything in the 'wipe section', i did so. but when it flashes a messages pop's up asking "A FSC script has been found 34.0.fsc. Do you want to use it?" (this is the script algnerd was talking about (which i had no idea at the start)) . i clicked on no, so the process finished (within a short time) i did this twice, and, it basically did nothing, it booted to Nougat as though i didn't touch it.
the 3rd time, when that messaged poped up, i click on yes (obviously after selecting everything in the 'wipe section')........the result.................................................................................... it worked!!!
heres the image of what i selected in Flashtool:
i.imgur.com/8PWMn8Z.png[/IMG]
and the message (the script):
i.imgur.com/EznIw0h.png[/IMG]
so what you need to do it press yes, simple, but time effective.
thanks guys again, it means a lot .

Thanks for your contribution and help, but before i looked at the update you posted, i had already done it. Also, i would like to asks, how comes you've selected everything in the 'Misc TA' (pretty sure i didn't, and i still have the TA, as i checked for warranty).

Oh right, thanks. I don't think they would have got deleted, as it was official firmware and there was no root.
all i have to do is back up the TA using Backup TA v2 , which i did yesterday, but it kept failing. anyway ill try some time soon and report back.

I'll try and keep this short and to the point. If you unlocked your bootloader and flashed TWRP and SuperSU, theirs a Good chance your phone will not return to stock and take OTA updates. Many of us have tried but for some reason the updates just fail.
Well we are lucky and someone captured and posted the 3 known updates and I'm going to show you how to flash them
New ~ All in One ~ update Instructions in Post 2
We now have a new way to do this, So the information below is just for information sake So bare with me while I get the Guide updated...
Other Files you may need
H1611.TWRP.New.img <<- This is the New Twrp by yuweng I Highly recommend everyone use this Version
minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.1_setup.exe
Huawei_Android_phone_drivers(1).rar
I have been working on this for some time and I now have an ALL in One Flash solution
This will allow you to flash a Single Rom to Update or Downgrade your firmware and Rom
As with any firmware update or downgrade I'm not responsible to what happens to your phone you do this at your own risk
(rest assured I have tested all these files and my phone is fine)
The Flash instructions are the same as any rom flash on this phone
Step one is to Boot to the bootloader and boot H1611.TWRP.New.img
fastboot boot H1611.TWRP.New.img
Swipe to allow modifications to System
then choose Mount and check system and cust
Select Storage Micro SDcard
Next is install and choose your Bxxx_Full_Update.zip
Swipe to flash
Reboot
That's really all their is too it, Just choose the File below that you want to update or downgrade too
Note: The phone always loads the AT&T logo and reboots the first time and then loads normally
First boot will take you to the setup screen if you formatted data
Another thing i noticed while test flashing these files is that the Data partition becomes Encrypted after the flash
This means before you can restore a data backup or flash a Rom like CleanRom (it includes data) you'll need to Format Data to UN-encrypt it
Also some roms may need to have SuperSU flashed after the Rom or the phone may not boot the first time after the upgrade.
AS Always make a complete backup of your phone before you start any flashing
Downloads
~New~ B180_Full_Update.zip
Note about B180 - If you have no wifi or the phone won't boot simply extract the boot.img from the rom and flash it with TWRP (Install Image) or fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img) also the AT&T Logo is missing for now but everything else works
Thanks To @madvane20 Download >> B170 Stock Full Update with Firmware
B160_Full_Update.v2.zip
B150_Full_Update.zip
I had to make B140 into 2 flashes but it works the same just copy both files to your phone and Flash A then B
B140_Full_Update.A.zip
B140_Full_Update.B.zip
B130_Full_Update.zip
Huge thanks to @madvane20 for helping with the partition layouts and testing and to @worstenbrood for the Huawei Update Extractor tool
Where do I start if I have B140 rooted on my XT? Maybe some numbers or section titles would help answer that. Thanks .

You start at the 2nd half of the updated guide B140 to B150
the process is the same no matter what version your on
So I should start with B130 stock files even though I'm in B140 rooted right now?

force flash the dload/update.app for b150 with the dialer code
boot TWRP restore stock B150 system and dd the B150 /cust
Flash SuperSU and Factory Reset (< optional)
reboot system and it boots to a clean B150

Be careful upgrading from B130 to B140. Went from stock non-rooted B130 to B140 using the SD card update method and hidden menu. While it went through the update process without reporting an error but after auto reboot it still showed the same version but lost WIFI functionality, mac address showed mostly 00s and can't restore full backup from TWRP without errors on /data, etc.
Anyone know if there are .img equivalent of 2017-01-26-H1611.B130.stock.complete to attempt restore from either fastboot flash or dd?

Download a global Stock ROM for your device and just run the flash all.bat file and let it run may take awhile and phone will be fresh again
HELP !!! I'm getting the same issue but don't care if i brick the phone.
No matter how many times i flash use different roms i still lose my IMEI/Baseband
I have an external SD card but it looks complicated to backup the EFS file to the SD card and then restore it to the phone but is that my only option ?

Every time I got this problem I found that flashing a fastboot ROM fixed it. I never managed to find any other solution that actually worked. Googling the problem I did find some solutions, but I didn't try them all. I just gave up and kept stock ROM with Magisk, then debloated it as much as I could. All I can suggest is seeing what Google throws up and seeing if any solution works for you.
anyone found a fix yet?
I have the mistake of rooting my device and disabling the encrypt, Now I have unknown baseband and my imei is blank. What do i do now?

With the earlier Xperia phones you needed to unlock the bootloader before flashing (that you are allowed to unlock doesn't mean that your bootloader is unlocked). To unlock you need the script and the code from Sony. At the moment I don't remember where to get both (script and code). And what about DRM-keys?, is it there a TA-partition to backup before unlocking? And so on...
I uploaded an update for newflasher here: github.com/munjeni/newflasher/issues/6. Tested with J9110.

How did you use the 2 files in the patch? Just copied them to Newflasher folder and run the whole process with the new .exe file?
How many times did you get error 997? Did you redo the whole process from the beginning or did you just unplug and replug the phone while the process was running?
Thnx
New version v14 is out!
I guess you have not installed Gordon Gate driver.

I managed to flash my new Xperia 1 to Customized UK and EE UK firmware without problems. I didnt delete anything like .ta files etc. I just copied newflasher files to Firmware Folder, downloaded from XperiFirm and run Newflasher.exe in flash mode.
Vodafone UK carrier lock still exists after flashing though!
I am trying to get an unlock code for this from a seemingly legit site. (fingers crossed)

Can you point me to which USB drivers you used? I can't for the life of me get my PC, to recognize the phone in flash mode.

Download Flashtool, install it, then go to folder c:\\flashtool\drivers and install driver package, checking the first two options, flashtool and fastboot drivers. Then your mobile will be discoverable in flash mode. Shut down your phone and while turned off, keep volume down button pressed while connecting usb cable, till green light shows up
