So I've searched and attempted several times using, EMMA, SUS, PCC and various other tools I came across and I've had NO LUCK. I've an LT30P with XperimenT 2.3 installed - not by myself and I'd like to return it to base ATT firmware if I could for a possible sale and an update to the Sony/ATT firmware and JB might help the cause. I know NOTHING and I've learned that apparently the "bootloader" on my machine cannot be unlocked. The phone functions well and there's nothing that I'm aware of that are issues but if asked about ATT and "stock" I can't either explain or say here I'll correct it if you like.
There are no back-ups available on the Internal or 32GB SD card that has been added.
Might this be a "YAWNER" for "gregbradley"? Maybe but I'm prepared for that. Has it been explained or covered? I can't stumble on it. Do I know what to do with the information if it's presented to me? Likely not. Care to help? I'd appreciate it!
Thanks,
-Dave
At the top of this section is the all-in-one sticky thread. There you will find the information you need to restore your phone using FlashTool and an ftf file of the at&t firmware.

But if you need further help after doing the advice from the post above it is OK to PM me and I will guide you through the process.
Stock ATT is. Actually the LT30at not the P. Flash the latest. LT30at ftf file using flashtools to get back to stock.
Sent from my Xperia Tablet Z
Use flashtool and flash ATT's FTF. But why would you switch back to att rom when the Xperia T firmware works on all Xperia TL's and is much faster than the stock att. Also the lt30p firmware will most likely get a 4.2.2 than the LT30at

When downgrading from 4.2.2 to 4.1.2, you need to wipe all data or it won't work. Why do you need the 'Generic US' firmware anyway? Does it contain any special features which you need and which are not available in 'Generic TW'? It's the worst customization when it comes to updates..
it doesn't have any special features, i don't knowt what in Generic TW firmware have. I just worry that if i flash other region firmware i won't get update over the air later. and i think the original firmware is good for me.

Today, Generic US has been updated to 10.3.A.0.423. You don't need an FTF to flash this firmware. Just follow this guide to change your customization number to 1271-0119 and install the update with Sony PC Companion: [GUIDE] Download ANY firmware customization from Sony & create an FTF with Flashtool

LTE firmware is for C6603. The C6602 contains different hardware and has no LTE support. If you flash firmware for the wrong device, you might get connectivity problems and you will no longer receive any software updates from Sony (because they check the first 8 digits of your IMEI number, which is different for C6602 and C6603).
I just updated to 10.3.A.0.423 last night using a FTF I made from PC Companion. Posted here in case anyone needs it

Just noticed that using C6603 firmware for my C6602 phone wasn't a very good idea.... Sony PC Companion doesn't allow me to update it.
After I reflash the C6602 version of firmware, will I be able to automatically update my phone using Sony PC Companion? My phone is a C6602 bought in China but the Chinese firmware has been flashed out of the device.
same issue i have a C6602 with C6603 rom on it

Were you able to get the phone back to stock? Also is there not a way of flashing the ROM without using the PC and ftf.
I prefer flashing from the phone on CWM because I'm lazy, Is that not an option for installing a stock rom for this phone?

If you find a flashable zip with stock rom, you can flash stock.
But if you have your booloader locked, chances are you lose your root, recovery and go back to barbone kernel.

thanks for the info. Im not 100% knowing if the bootloader is locked or not. I just assumed its unlocked because the phonr is rooted and i'm running AOKP on it. i guess the main reson i want ti know is because i know its not the correct rom for this phone. it works fine but it should be the one that should be for the phone. not c6603 when the phone is a c6602. would you happen to know the link for a cwm flashable rom version of c6602?

try to download your version, but it temp unavailable, can you enable it
Hi guys, i have already searched on Google and here in the forum and found many guides for saving firmwares but not the real solution to my problem so hope you can help me
I am on stock ics 7.0.A.1.303 on my brand new xperia T and would like to update it to jb soon but before to do that I would like to backup my CURRENT running firmware just in case..
All the guides i found requires to update to the latest firmware available with pc companion or the other sw and then generate the ftf firmware starting from the downloaded files.. the problem is that I want to backup my current firmware not the newer one I will download!
Is that possible? Any chance?
Byte and thanks in advance
Either root, install recovery and make a backup or search for a ftf with your currant firmware version in the all in one thread from the question and answer section

Thanks my friend. I did read your all in one guide: that's simply great there i found all the info i will need for rooting, installing cwm and then be able to install custom roms.. I plan to install CM soon
Btw about the ftf's i saw them also, but i see there are many customizations of the same ftf so to avoid problems I wanted to save my own
The problem is that I'm in Italy + i have a no brand phone and I'm not sure if my ftf is in that list.. maybe my current ftf is the General ics central Europe one?
Bye and thanks again
Yes, you can use that one
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium
Thanks! Just last question: if I well understood reading around here, the firmware ftf's don't include the kernel also, so if after updating to jb I would like to go back to ics i should flash the kernel separately right? If so, can i flash "[Kernel] Stock Kernel taken from Xperia T [LT30p] 7.0.A.1.303 [Vodafone UK]" I found in your guide even if it says vodafone uk? I guess so as it is "just" a kernel but just to be sure.. Thanks again!

That will be fine, but the ftf's do include the stock kernel, so don't worry.
Hey,
I have a UK unbranded xperia z with has been a great phone apart from the trickle way that the device handles photos and compression etc, the latest firmware for this device is supposed to fix this problem how it's still not out in the UK however seems to be everywhere else.
The of suite doesn't now show the latest version however when going to Sony's website it's listed but unavailable to download.
My question is can the phone someone be manually flashed without losing the DRM features or perhaps be forced to download the software from an alterative source.
Think the version I am looking for is 10.3.1.A.2.67 for the 6603 model.
Anyone help?
Thanks

TBH I have no idea what are you talking about, but i guess you want to flash .67 fw right?
If yes, then:

and choose some .67 fw from general section. ex.:

flashing a stock tft from a different region may lost your localization. If you do not mind any localization matter, fine, otherwise you have to wait.
Hello
Just wondering if everyone on bell with an Xperia z (c6616) is still only on 4.1.2
or if i am just not getting any updates, i see a lot of others like C6603 getting updates, i assume it could just be taking some time in canada.
Thanks
You can flash any other region's 4.2.2 ftf with flashtool. The only difference really is the bands supported. If you really wanted to, you can not flash the radio and just flash the rom, as long as it's C6603

Any tips on how to do this? I've been hesitant to falsh the C6603 rom because I didn't want to screw up the bands.

You can uncheck what you don't want flashed (modem I think it was... or was it baseband? Can't remember, but check the stickies for flashing info)

The only way I know Is to get the right ftf file for your handset and flash it back to 4.4.4, if you can't find the right firmware for your phone, then you may have to create your own using xperifirm and flash tool. either way you will keep iemi number and be able to flash it on a locked bootloader.
