Sony z help

I brought a Sony xperia z today but the model is L36H which is suppose to be 6602 it's the China version.
My problem is that I can't get the US google play store and no GPS icon on here.
I tried downloading the google play US version but it never opens it just shuts off.
Anyone know how I can delete the china version of google play and install the US one?
If it comes down to it i guess I will have to look into getting it rooted.

I think that you will have to root. You can't delete for example the playstore apk to replace it for another one without root.

For GPS try...
Settings, accounts, Google, location services, switch on.
I could not get my GPS working no matter what I tried. Only this way worked. Good luck.

Thanks I'll look into that but at this point I guess the phone will need to be rooted which I didn't want to do.

Like gm007 said flash another stock ROM/firmware. Use flashtool, no need rooting or unlocking bootloader.

I think that's the older version so you might have problems with that. Just use the one I posted.

Since I have the L36h(6602) can I flash it with 6603?

Does flashing firmwares void warranty? Also does it have any effect on lets say the emic or flash storage on the phone? And lastly, isn't that 14.1.G.534 a prototype/journalist firmware?

You wont lose warranty by flashing firmwares,and no it wont affect the storage soon.
I don't know if .543 is for prototype,i don't have the phone yet.

Hi I use the C6602 as well and i recently flashed mine. This might be asking too basic a question but did you go to "Xperia" under Settings and select the "Internet Services" option to reinstall it? I panicked at first when I realized my internet wasn't working but after I did this, it started working fine.

Download sony update service and use it to repair your software.
Or find an ftf in general section for c6602 and flash it with flashtool.

[Q] Will my phone update through pc?

Hi
Will my phone update from. 569 to 10.4.1.B.0.101 MTN South Africa with the boot loader unlocked? I don't want to waste 800 megs of data if it won't work.
TIA.

No, you should download the ftf file and flash it via flashtool

Thanks StJimmy will do that now I just got to find the right. ftf file for MTN SA.

You're welcome. You can use any ftf file as long as it is for your phone (eg. C6603)

What about it? Flashing a different rom will change the customisation number. What's your point?

Don't worry about it. If you flash a different regions rom, your customisation number will change.
That has no functional effect on your phone whatsoever and it's not something that can be excluded from the flash as it's just a value in build.prop.

OK cool thanks Guv.

Don't be. The customisation number is part of the rom. Just don't concern yourself with it. As long as you flash a FTF for your specific model, then you'll be fine.

Thanks kingvortex,
I thought that the custimisation number was region specefict and thought that the netherlands had a different setting or something then the brasilian one for example

It is, but it doesn't matter. When you flash a different rom, the customisation number will change.
It's mainly used when checking for updates via the PCC or OTA, so you will receive updates for the current customisation version of your phone. As the OP has unlocked their bootloader, they cannot receive updates via those methods anyway.
