Hi guys,
I used the search but i cant find the right answer.
I want to flash my xperia x1 back to the original rom. maybe by using the SE update service if possible.
i recently HardSPLed my phone and used a custom wm 6.5 rom. Can i just use SE update service or a original stock rom and flash it? or do i have to restore my stock SPL first?
Thnx for your time
Well, there are many questions like yours and all have been answered..., just do search a little bit more. For example, read this thread.
But, maybe this will help :
1. Download stock ROM from this thread.
Run the program and rename the extracted program to "RUU_Signed.nbh" if you want to use CustomRUU or rename to "kovsimg.nbh" if you want to use micro SD method.
2. Download stock SPL from this thread.
Flash your device back to stock SPL.
So, first, flash the stock ROM, then flash the stock SPL.
Hi wanted to install the latest update via PC Companion.
But there always comes the error message:
The phone contains modified software that can not be updated.
(Error 2003)
At the last update time I installed the following firmware
Xperia Z rooted firmware 10.1.1.A.1.253 German stock + CWM 6.0.2.8
Who can help me as I can now install the current firmware without which all data are gone?

Stop spamming and saying wrong solution. Flashtool is the best to fast and without problems flashing any firmware. Solution for his problem was already posted so you mustn't post again solution but this time you say wrong solution.

Hi, Oxydeme in here,
Today I'm writting cause I flashed the Gnome rom via CMW on an XperiaZ with Unlocked Bootloader.
The rom is working fine but I just couldn't keep my recovery and I just can't get it back.
This rom is not what I wanted, I just wanted to try it out, but now the rom is boring,
My phone isn't recognized anymore via FT and can't proceed to a PCC update as the flashmode isn't recognised correctly..
I even tryed to flash an other rom via Flashtool in flashmode but can't flash anything unfortunately,
The fact is that I can't flash any CMW recovery or TWR on the Kernel of this rom (that replaced the DooMKernel -and I just don't really know why)
Is there any Recovery for this Kernel?
(The Kernel that replaced DoomKernel is:
3.4.9-gd3b6d0c-00010-gd6a906d-dirty

Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance,

EDIT: As I'm new in the Xperia Z threads (before I used to be in X8 threads but not so active)
Can someone teach me how to build from a Sony(tm) firmware?
Extract boot.img from any cm rom( pac, vanir, 4.3 / 4.4 ) then use fastboot method to flash boot.img to phone.
then after flashing, boot the phone str8 up to recovery mode and do your stuff there.
i was a victim too.
Thanks bro but I used after thinking a bit - why the flash wouldn't work on another computer? -
an other solution,
As I couldn't do anything with my first PC, I decided to try to flash on another computer (On Win8
this time the first one was on Win7) and I don't really know why but when I tried on the second one,
it worked so I flashed a generic ftf in order to get stock rom and then, could do every stuffs again,
whithout problem (Rooting, CMW, and then install another Kernel and I'll see for a custom Rom)
___
Do we have to flash a recovery on every new rom?
___
How can we know if X-Rom will work with Y-Kernel? (Compatibility question )
___
Anyway, thanks a lot
Cheers, Oxydeme.

If the rom includes a boot.img with recovery in it. You would already have recovery with the rom. Some rom comes with dual recovery like existenz rom. And for stock based rom, you can either use stock kernel, doom kernel or xzkernel Zk. For cm/aosp, you can use stock cm kernel or meow kernel.

So in order to know I just would have to extract the files in order to check? Is that right?

You don't need to extract it, just double click on the .zip file will able you to see the files inside
Post here if you want to specifically ask if Y-kernel can be flashed on X-Rom if you have doubt, i'll try my best to help you.

Want an anecdot? I bricked my Xperia Z twice today, once when flahsing a rom - stuck at sony logo...- second time was a false manip I just needed to power off the device insteed of rebooting it (what I forget) -then this time, stuck at BL- the method I did the first time I got an error, works in any case
So everytime I get stuck somewhere, I change my computer and flash something x)
Hi Everybody, If someone pass through this thread, can someone learn me how to edit a rom?
As I previously was not so active in x8 threads, I want to be active in Xperia Z threads, so I want to start something ^^
I'm gonna ask NUT if I can edit his realeased Sony(TM) rom in order to make something interesting, but I just don't know how to,
So, my question is as firstly mentioned on this post,
Can someone learn me how to mod in Android?
Cheers,
Oxydeme

psst, use the search button man. Don't get flamed by others in future.
here's the link to help you.
Its written by NUT, all credits to him. and yea, ask his permission as a base for your ROM that you're making/editing.

Hi,
I have a z1 running cm11, from what I can tell mhl/HDMI out is broken in cm11, has anyone got it working?
If not from what I have read I will have to revert to a Sony ROM to get this working using the smart wizard. Is it possible to revert to a stock ROM using cwr or do I have to use flashtools from a PC? Have the relevant ftf file, but was expecting to find a stock ROM in an update.zip style to flash from recovery?
Anyone have any input in this please?
