Xperia flash stock well it remove root and cwm - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, I am just double checking with you to be sure.
As if now I have a stock .307 rooted with xdualrecovery cwm and touch.. I would like to know if all of this will be removed if I flash stock os via flashtool? (ie. If I want to return the unit for warranty purposes).

Returning to stock

Hi all,
Thinking of selling my i9000 soon (to upgrade to an S3), before I sell it. I'd like to return it to a stock rom and unroot it (currently on CM9), which stock rom should I use? How do I unroot it, and how do I remove all my personal information?
Thanks in advance
Rob

Thanks! Do I need to use a PIT and repartition? Are there any things to look out for since I'm going from ICS to GB, or is it just the same as flashing any other Odin ROM?
Sorry for all the questions
There is no problem to go back to gb from ics if you use odin.just flash it and you are done.

Excellent! I read somewhere a while back that there was, must have misread it...
Thanks!

I thought that it is not that easy because some ICS use different filesystems.
If you want to get back to gb custom rom it's difficult.odin is used to flash official firmware.

Ahh, because I would be using CWM for most custom ROMs?

There is no issue ,use odin to go back to unrooted gb and then root it and install whatever rom you want.

This one will help you. As I said it is not that easy and needs some patience from you, but you will succeed.

Yes it is, just flash an ICS ftf

EDIT,
Sorry my mistake, now I am at my PC I can see you have a V.
In which case rooting is easy..just unlock you rbootloader and flash an insecure kernel.

The official MD3 is there, pre-rooted. Just flash that one instead.

Use Helium (Carbon) or titanium backup to backup your apps.
Settings are also saved?

make a backup atleast before you try if you are concerned
i went from the 4.1.2 tmobile branded to .67
it seems to have broken the tethering portion of settings (i didn't wipe data)
probably going to do a fresh flash to .67 before 4.3 or 4.4 comes out.
I think I will wait for the newer android update, I know there was a flashing method to keep your apps and settings. I got my backup so try it later when 4.3 or 4.4 is released.
Thanks for the quick replies!

Will i loose root after updating?

I'm on a stock rom that's been pre-rooted snd flashed with Odin. I have no custom recovery. Now I've just got a pop up saying that the new firmware is ready for download and installation. Will I loose root after this update? Or should I just look for a pre-rooted version of the new firmware and install that one instead?

yes you will loose root if you flash a clean stock. you can flash root.zip after
