My z1 is the China edition, it dose not contains Google accounts ,Google play and Google service framework etc. For me it's unacceptable, so I rooted it,and use root explorer copy these apks to system from the gapps pack.Now almost everything works fine, except two issues. One is every time when I reboot the phone, it always makes me choose the languages. Another is z1 cannot be found in the Google play's device list.Does anyone know what make these happened and how to fix it?

Rather than extracting each apks from gapp, it'd be better to just flash the entire gapp.zip from cwm recovery.
So if I were you:
1. Flash cwm, if you haven't done so already.
2. Factory reset the phone.
3. Flash gapp via cwm recovery.
That's true. But flash the cwm must be unlocked. Will the bravia engine be lost when I unlocked the device?It's my first time use Sony's device, I don't known much about it.

Well you can just flash CWM recovery via ROM Manager (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager) once you're rooted.
In terms of the Bravia Engine, just do a TA back up (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598)
BTW, there're reports that unlocking the bootloader breaks the camera (http://www.xperiablog.net/2013/09/14/unlocking-xperia-z1-bootloader-breaks-camera-functionality/). So you'd have to back up TA anyway.
If you want a good stock rom just flash a ftf with flashtool from another region. You even do not need to unlock or whatever to get gapps then, just flash a unrestricted region!

Thanks guys,I already backup the TA,but I don't know what does it use for? I'll try the rom manager as well!And flash another region's stock rom will it be bricked?

Some have reported losing camera when flashing stock rom for another region. So you need to backup TA before you flash anything or you take the chance of losing your camera.

hi pal, I want to confirm if buy a Chinese version of Z1, and later want to ROOT + FLASH it STOCK HK firmware, is that possible WITHOUT unlocking BL? That should be possible right? Unlockng BL is only for CUSTOM roms right?
Just want to confirm with you before I get the Z1 soon~~~ thnx pal!

Yes exactly, you can flash FTF WITHOUT unlocking. FTF flashing with flashtool is same as flashing with Sony original flashing software, but Flashtool lets you override the region settings, so you can debrand/crossflash another region etc etc

Correct, China version has no google apps. Either the Taiwan or Hong Kong version will have it. If you could upload either one in FTF format that would be greatly appeciated.

To flash this copy the FTF file to flashtools/firmware folder and then just flah it, no root nothing else needed !
Just connect device in flashmode (green led -> Power off, connect usb while holdung volume down) and flash it!

You mean for C6903 right? because as it seems there is C6902 (like in CN) and in TW, but in HK i can only find Model C6903, and SOMETIMES these models differ on little parameters, like kernel and can cause unwanted issues!

What he said.
This is the Xperia V (LT25i) INTERNATION LTE Stock Firmware in FTF format.
This does not need a unlocked bootloader or any work on our part. Anyone can flash it.
All you need to do is, use the flashtool by Androxyde & Bin4ry ,
push the big lightning button (that stands for flash) and locate the FTF file on PC
and then connect the phone to PC in flashmode.
A stock FTF file is essential to "make your phone just the way it was when it was released" and also to repair from a soft-brick.
This FTF does not contain bootloader S1boot.bin so it will NOT relock your bootloader if you already have unlocked bootloader

Odd . same chipset, I think if you only keep the base band it'll work .. excluding the kernel is probably what caused the boot loop. thoughts ?

Hello there. I've been searching for any info about the firmware updates and its relation with operators, regions, etc. Yet, layman in the subject as I am, I can't completely understand this simple question: "Why can't I update my firmware to the last one?"
I'm stuck at .257 and tried both PC Companion and OTA update method. My device always says I'm up to date. First I though the last firmware (2.245) wasn't availabe to my country (Brazil, btw), but when I checked the Sony brazilian page, written in my native language, it said that 2.245 was the last one and availabe, but I simply can't update to this version.
So, any of you guys can help me understand why this is happening? Might be a problem with my device? Perhaps something related to my operator?
And the last, but maybe the more important atm: For a common user like me, who don't care much about pictures and want to root the phone just to move apps to SDcard and hide on-screen button bar, worth updating to the last firmware?
Thanks in advance. Also sorry for any bad grammar.
Sometimes if phone was brought through airtime provider they need to add or subtract apps to new update. You can use tools like flashtools to flash ftf files to your device without worry of breaking/bricking etc as you can change the language from within the settings.
I would always root the phone no matter what the phone can can't do as you can add/delete what you want. To root follow doomlords tut found on dev pages of Sp forum.
I am of the mind set the more up to date the better,if you don't like you can always reflash a older ftf file.
Hope this helps

yes, but
1.5 - install cwm for locked bootloader and there's no need to root again (in fact as of yet 245 cannot be rooted directly)
Just to echo what has been said, the roll out for updates can take a while, Sony releases to regions at different times and then each operator in the region has to allow the update
If you follow the how to root guide for 2.245 by doomlord you are only flashing the kernel not the whole ROM.
When you start up flashtools just spend a few moments to familiarise yourself with it,if you have never used before.
Sent from my C5303 using xda premium
Thanks for the asnwers.
I just gor a bit confused with this "1.5" step. From what I understand, I should follow and old 257 root guide, install CWM, then flash the 2.245 (Via this CWM? Sorry if I'm saying something nonsense), then I'm done? I don't get the CWM thing. Anyway, thanks for the tips.
It depents how you want to nake.
First metod tft:
1 download. 245 tft file.
2 flash using flashtool.
Now you got official 245 software.
If you want to you can root using method for .245 firmware.
Second method CMW.
1 root your phone using. 257 method.
2 instal CMW.
3 download any zip firmware.
4 instal by CWM.
Now don't want to root or root working - flash. 245 kernel using flashtool.
You want root - use root method for. 245 no need to flash 257 kernel just run exploit.
Hope that will explain roughly what to do.
Good luck.

The sp isnt listed in da support list.
And I read "This flash tool can only be used by Xperia™ devices having an unlocked boot loader. Please note that your phone still stays unlocked, and that the warranty may still be voided." on the official homepage"
My bootloader isnt unlocked

next : My English is very poor.
Now I use Z1 docomo so-01f and flash to c9603 rom ( no root, no unlocked bootloader )
because I don't like docomo service and can't turn off camera shutter sound.
A big problem is Japan model has 32GB internal storage but when flash to c960x it's show only 16GB
How can I fixed this problem ???
Thank you all for reading my poor English and answer.
You have to search for a DOCOMO ftf for so-01f, flash it then try to flash the C690x ftf excluding baseband.

Did you install the DOCOMO baseband first? Otherwise, the C6903 baseband is already programmed.

Yes, I do like you said .
Flash Docomo first then flash c960x again with excluding baseband. ( I also try other like Kernel, partition, .. )
It's not working :crying:
Thank you all for helping
but still need to solve this problem.
If I root, unloock bootloader and install custom kernel and custom rom this would be solve ??

Hmm. You're trying to run the "wrong" firmware on your phone, so it could be very tricky. Maybe a better way would be to flash stock DoCoMo, root, then replace your Camera app from C690x? My guess is the limitation is part of the APK, nothing else.
You are on thin ice, though, since turning off the shutter sound is illegal in Japan. http://naruhodo.jp.net/why-all-cellphones-camera-in-japan-shipped-with-shutter-sound/
Try flash file here: https://mega.co.nz/#!ak5hzQDa!L8HPmHQMMlxm9WoA687FxT4zsv1JD4g6Gqs9KKHgKiU (SO-01F 14.1.H.1.281 1278-7126 R14A)

P/s: How to root Xperia Z1? (SO-01F Docomo)
Thank of lot.
Flash SO-01F 14.1.H.1.281's partition.
When you flash C69xx ftf on SO-01F, you have to exclude partition, not baseband.

Follow the topic, you can update first without root if you like, but you still need to get back on 257 to root anyway.

First revert back to .534 (Hope you know how to downgrade and flash ftf's using flashtool, if you don't please let me know),
Then root it using Kingo,
Install XZDual Recovery,
Then proceed with the link mentioned above.
So much wing with this thread, it's in the wrong section and wrong advice.
Flash 534 ftf
Install dual recovery (no need to root)
Flash a pre rooted 4.4 rom

Don't worry and welcome to Xperia
You'd have to flash the FTF first. So flash .534 FTF and install XZDualRecovery before proceeding with the thread you've mentioned and do the steps provided there

thx for the welcome,although it's a welcome back hahaha got a xperia x1, x10 and the z1
do you have any direct link where I can download .534 and latest, all I can find is a torrent and takes 6hrs or so to download
Can't you search? Look in the stickies in the general section, the FTF mega collection thread

None of them are bittorrents, they are direct downloads

That link aint working not sure if I can extract the ftf from my phone which is unlocked. Talked to doomlord and it seems rooting doesnt make you lose your drm keys but unlocking the bootloader does, you need root to get the TA backup

No you can not, but there are literally hundreds of FTF files in the mega collection thread that are not torrents for this user to use

All this info is given in the unlocking bootloader thread and the all you need to know thread.....
This information is readily available with a quick search
