I need the 2.67 germany vodafone (or generic germany)-FTF but can't download it via sony to create it on my own with flashtool because my bootloader is unlocked... Google didn't help and there is also nothing at xda...
Does anyone have a link?

Not released yet in almost all country's. Only Spain has released it till now. Why not just install the Spanish version? It still supports the German language

Edit: you are right @kingvortex, should have checked my facts better.
So according to that thread it is already available for Vodafone Germany. Try using pcc to download and use flashtool to convert it to ftf yourself.
Here is a guide to do that.

It works the same for xz, although that forum is for different Xperia's
It's not true at all that only Spain has the 67 update.

That's not entirely true, you CAN download the firmware, just not install it via pcc. I create my own ftf's always that way.
And I'm unlocked too

I don't know how you guys do it...I tried sues: says "you modified your device" and wont download anything...I found a sony software called emma: it needs a developer login, so I registered yesterday but I still wait for sonys email (checked spam)...
All the guides I found even write "required: locked bootloader" in the first lines...
how the heck can you guys download it?!

The Emma program does not need special access, just a file which states you are a unlocked bootloader user (a .ini file)
Download the Flash tool for Xperia devices.
Unzip the file you downloaded and place it somewhere on your computer.
In the unzipped folder, run Emma.exe. During the installation, make sure you remember the installation path:
Default path in Windows 64 bit is: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Emma\”
Default path in Windows 32 bit is: “C:\Program Files\Sony Mobile\Emma\”
Copy the Customization.ini file. You find it in the Flash_tool_for_Xperia_X.zip.
Paste the Customization.ini file into the installation folder. The installation folder is the folder named Emma in the installation path examples on point 3.1 and 3.2 above.
Click Start > All programs > Sony Mobile > Emma (if you used the default installation path from step 3 above) to start the flash tool

Anyways, I always use 'Sony pc companion' for downloading, since this first downloads the data, and after downloading requires you to reboot (wich i don't even bother to do since i'm not using PCC for flashing ), this way they can't check you have 'altered' software.

Edit:
In SUS you should choose repair instead of update, or else it won't work
edit 2:
THIS tutorial was the first tutorial i followed when i started learning to make my own ftf's.
it also states you DON'T need locked bootloader.

I know this sound like newbie and I start thinking I'm newbie right now.
Yesterday I have my Xperia Z (C6602) Region TH. flashed to DoCoMo and it was working perfectly except a little thing. It has a lot of bloatware so I managed to get root and uninstall a lot of them. Hour later OTA arrive so I install it and my phone stop the networking. 3G and Wi-Fi working really strange (I supposed to know this is Baseband problem not because I uninstall DoCoMo bloatware carelessly)
So I use Flashtool to flash DoCoMo (101.D.0.333) again and realized later that it was not my careless uninstall. It was OTA that kill my phone feature so I tried flash my region Firmware (10.1.A.1.434) to get the baseband back and flash DoCoMo fw without baseband again later.
And my problem starting from here. The phone not recognized on Flashtool (it say "Cannot identify your device") and it ask me to input what my model is (So I choose C660x) and it make my phone ready to flash once I put it to flashmode. But no, once I put it to flashmode flashtool itself couldn't recognize my phone is in the state ready to flashing so it keep saying my phone need to put in to flashmode by press Vol.down while plug the USB.
I have no idea how to fix this. I already tried uninstall-reinstall the USB driver. Try SO-02E driver (which is the same as Xperia Z) but it still not working.
And each time my phone reboot it keep asking me to choose the language and tell me to put the DoCoMo sim. Does this mean I need to put the sim first to make the phone pass the state on Unboxing?
All I need right now is to flash my region FW back first. (Or maybe find some way to make radio.zip from FTF). Should I root and put a recovery into my LOCKED bootloader and find some way to install radio?
First ask the Mod to move the thread to Q&A.
Are you using the latest flashtool beta6?

Oh just saw that I really put it in a wrong section. And yes, I'm using Beta6. It was working fine until I flash it again today (was working after OTA, but no, not working for now)

Hi
Download any Ftf version (434 version at least), then flash it by using flashmode tool.
There is a very good tuto in xda (sorry i do not write from my computer and do not know/succeed to add the appropriate link from phone).
Nevertheless you have to:
1 install phone drivers to your computer
2 downmload and install flashtool
3 download ftf file from Android original or Android dev threads
4 follow How to use flashtool guide available in the Xperia Z section.
Do not worry it is not so hard :screwy:
As proposed, I have :
1- Installed the Sony PC Companion 2.10.155
2- Installed the Flashtool-0.9.10.2beta6 --> Thanks to Androxide for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2162907
3- Followed the Tuto of 'Flashing Stock Rom with FlashTool --> Thanks to Shadowboy23 for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2240614
3- Used the UK Unbranded FTF --> Thanks to Paulkhim for that

Hi All !
I wanted to make a ftf file for Xperia Z. I copied three files from the folder C:\Program Files\Sony Mobile\Update Service\db\13740270\blob_fs (last modified without icon files) siZed 737mb, 15.6 mb & 631 kb to a folder named source files as found in the guide to prepare ftf files using flash tool. The problem is the ftf which I am getting after going through the complete process is just 48.2 mb !! I am sure there is some problem but I am sure I did go with the right procedure. The flashtool version I am using is Flashtool v0.9.11.0. Please let me know your response..
There should be 5 files to start with.
Follow this guide to download and create an FTF -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311211
That method definitely works with no need to create source directories etc.

Older threads might have outdated information that doesn't apply to the Z. Which guide are you following?
The guide I linked to has current, correct information that definitely works 100%. I have created 2 different FTF with that method myself and others have also used that method successfully.
I would start the whole process again from downloading the software and follow the steps in the thread I linked to. You can ignore the part about changing customisation version if that isn't required.

Repair your phone again before creating the ftf,maybe you have deleted some files from blobs folder.

I'm confused! For I did not delete any files and got 3 files in the folder.. updated this week to the new version so must not be a concern of incomplete files but I'll go with your words.. I'll try to repair the phone through pc companion and then will again try to make a ftf.. I'll get back.. thank you

I just created another ftf as a backup for the rom that is on my phone and to check how many FILE_********* were created.
There were 5 FILE_********* in the folder and all went fine. A 769MB FTF was created.

Hey there, u have removed some google apps or something like that. Your only option is to install from desktop program.
If you have unlocked bootloader or rooted phone with some system modification, you cannot update with sony's update software.
Use flashtool to update or emma.
