Bin4ry if you look in Ion general section there is a stock firmware thread that has all the released stock ftf files if you want to add those. Also in the XT section the thread mention above by gregbradley has more stock ft files.

Are you able to use pccompanion? If you can and your phone was on 3 UK firmware you can create your own .ftf following the guide from the all in one thread. If you have any questions about doing that, ask in that thread or PM me.

Yes this is no problem, all Android Firmwares are multilingual, even the Software will automatically change the language to the SIM language So no worry you can even install arabic firmware and you will get DUTCH automatically when yours SIM is dutch

Question:
What's better of these two, I have a TL (AT&T) so I can not root the newer FW.
1.) 7.0.A.1.303 - ROOTED
2.) 7.0.A.3.195 - NOT ROOTED
Thanks.. looking for opinions please as I'm certain there are several others on AT&T who are wondering.

This is not the place for questions like this, but in brief the answer is that it's your choice. If you want system access you need root, if you don't need root then 195 is the latest fw therefore probably better..

You can root the AT&T FW and remove bloatware if you want without issue. As for the two you listed if you flash them you will lose LTE unless you exclude the baseband when flashing. The first one you will be able to root using Bin4ry's method the second one you will not be able to root at all since you have a locked bootloader and Bin4ry's method doesn't work on that firmware.
Thanks Spectre51, I understand the limitations and was wondering if going for the newer FW .195 was really worth loosing root on .303.

Those are only pre-installed apps. I too found it out of the box. After updating through Sony PCC, those apps are gone. Also you can just flash this to update to 4.1.2 instantly.

If they are unbranded, there's a slight difference about which apps are preinstalled and could be uninstalled. That's all I guess...

Hi guys, I in Vietnam and I have a Xperia TL Lt30at, I bought it from a store in my country, now I want to upgrade firmware 4.3 for my phone. But I don't know what firmware for it, as I search, that just has firmware 4.3 for Xperia T/TX. I just wondering my phone can read my sim, can use gsm and 3G in my country, so is that unlocked? If it was unlocked, can I use it as every Xperia T (Lt30p) other and up every firmware as Lt30p?
Sorry for my bad english
Hello. I am also using Xperia TL. I can answer your questions :
1) TL can use any rom of Xperia T, not TX made for looked bootloader.
2) You can test your phone with Vietnamese mobile network. If it doesn't run, you should ask your seller to unlock network for you.

Had you used search before posting, you would have found my guide on upgrading LT30at to 4.3. LT30p and LT30a/t are the same devices. The only difference is that that a devices have LTE radios in them. Since you use only 3G network, you don't need to worry about basebands.

PureXT is based on stock. Sony no longer upgrades software for its at&t devices, so you have to use stock-based custom ROMs if you want to be up to date.

Let me get this right:
- you own LT30at: Xperia TL with USA at&t branding, not Rogers from Canada, which is LT30a
- you live in Viet Nam and you don't have 4G/LTE network where you live
- you want to upgrade the firmware to 4.3 and keep all native Sony features
All you have to do is follow my guide. There is no 4.3 coming for LT30at via Sony Update Service.
"ROM cook" stuff doesn't mess up your device because it's basically the stock ROM with some APKs added/changed. I don't know why you worry about losing at&t branding - it's absolutely useless to you since you aren't in the USA.
Moreover, flashing using the flashtool, you will lose all of your apps, settings, and root access. If you are fine with that, then do go ahead and pick any TFT firmware for T or TL from the list and then flash it.

Im confused. we use pcc for updating, file managing, for backup, etc. my phone bought from Kuwait that was stock middle east version rom installed. a month ago while I was using a ram cleaner app my phone is hanged badly that was not recoverable. then I flashed a ftf file of 4.3 .266(dont know which country version). but after that my phone is laggy. now I want to move back original middle east version. thats why i want to download and manually flash middle east version of .201. I think its not possible by pcc, is it?
Possible. But your software customisation no. should be one of ME version in your phone (build.prop). But since you've flashed another ftf, it might have changed. So, you have to change to your original cust. no. in build prop ([highlight]need root for that[/highlight]) and then connect with PCC. It will download your original FW. Obviously you have forgotten that number.. so, have to find it out using your SI (sales item) no. [remove back cover and see/ or on the box]. Then go to following appropriate link for your phone model and do a "find in page" with your SI no. You may get several entries. In that you can find your orig. cust. no.

Possible. But your software customisation no. should be one of ME version in your phone (build.prop). But since you've flashed another ftf, it might have changed. So, you have to change to your original cust. no. in build prop ([highlight]need root for that[/highlight]) and then connect with PCC. It will download your original FW. Obviously you have forgotten that number.. so, have to find it out using your SI (sales item) no. [remove back cover and see/ or on the box]. Then go to following appropriate link for your phone model and do a "find in page" with your SI no. You may get several entries. In that you can find your orig. cust. no.
From here. Credits to @antkalaitzakis96.
*if you're having trouble, just post your SI no. here. (NEVER post your IMEI).
A good guide for changing cust. ver. no. and making your original ftf is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334653

Firmware
I tried much but failed to find kitkat or higher
You're on the latest available software for your device (C6606). It seems that T-Mo aren't interested in the C6606 any more and won't approve updates for it.
I've seen around the forum that some people have flashed the C6616 firmware to their C6606 with success. You could try that. I'm not sure if you would lose any T-Mo features like wifi calling though and it's obviously at your own risk. Nothing should go wrong though.
If you want to try, you can download and flash the latest C6616 firmware (10.6.A.0.454) by following my guide - How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format
Firmware

Most people have found it better to do a clean flash when upgrading to Lollipop, so it's probably best to backup your apps and reinstall after flashing. Apart from that you shouldn't have problems if you follow my guide.
Clean
I dnt want any data i want a perfect stock rom only thats become possible only because of you thanks i will message u tonight
flash tool
@kingvortex buddy hery is something i didnt get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
(WARNING : Since Xperia Z, sony added a new set of files I called bootbundle. Those files can be bundled from 0.9.13 and can be flashed from 0.9.13 only. To all those flashing devices from Z edition to all after Z, it is highly advised to use 0.9.13 and to be sure FTF you flash contain the bootbundle set. I've been reported of hard bricks because of missing such set of files from bundles.) copied from there
what is this thing ?? and download link for flash tool there are to many links on that page
Just use the latest version. You can download it from here. I suggest downloading via torrent if you can as it's the fastest way.

How did you actually get 5.0.2 installed to your phone after you flashed 6616? Did you use PC companion or do an OTA update?
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks a lot dude. Would've been stuck on 4.3 for I dunno how long if it weren't for you.
So since I updated to 5.0.2 a couple days ago I can't seem to use mobile network for internet access. Only wifi works. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Did you try downloading Internet settings? It's under Settings -> Wireless & network -> More -> Internet settings.
