For all the C6943 owners, there is any difference when backing up TA, rooting, flashing kernels or roms with this version? Any bug, or anything that i should know about it? Thx

Guys, what do you think, will i be able to flash Japan version of Z by international version of f/w ?
If you're talking about official FTF firmwares then no. And if you're talking about flashable zips through recovery then yes(if you can unlock the bootloader).
No, i`m talking about official FTF. Do you really think that i couldn`t flash FTF from C6603 mobel to SO-02E phone ?
First of all, you will not be able to unlock the bootloader, even if you happened too, then you would need to flash the international version f/w followed by the docomo f/w else it would behave weird.
When you flash the international f/w, you must select only the kernel or system.img (only) and then you must exclude that component while flashing the docomo f/w. This is the way to get root on docomo phones, unless some hack or vulnerability discovered to root it..
Previously I had Xperia Acro S from Japan and this how I got root on it..

i know this is an old thread but just in case anyone is wondering - the answer is "yes" you can flash international .ftf files (C6603) to the SO-02E and it works fine. i know because i do it myself.

Yes, My 'Z' is SO-02E too and using room eXistenZ v4.3.5, (LB). Dont be afraid your phone is brick
I need a custom rom form my xperia zSo-02E
I can't find any roms please help..
So I have the Brasilian variant of the Xperia Z1 ( C6943) its out of warranty already, so I wanted to unlock the bootloader, install a recovery and probably CM11. Te problem is, I'm allowed to flash the .534 rom of the C6903 over the stock .757 that it is running? I would not brick? And to install the recovery and unlock bootloader I just do the same as to the locked bootloader?

Why would you do that? Take the firmware for your phone, not another one

Because there is no custom roms for the C6943 and the C6943 and C6903 are basically the same thing, the one I have is just the Brazilian variant with radio and digital TV and I dont care of losing those functions.

Hi, I am new in this forum. I have an Xperia Z (C6603) and I’m currently on FW 10.4.B.0.569. I am planning to install FXP CM11 but before unlocking the bootloader I would like to back up my TA partition. I understand that I will need root access for that. My question is whether I can use DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit by flashing back to KernelOnly 10.3.A.0.423 even so I currently have 10.4.B.0.569 or will I have to entirely downgrade the phone to 10.3.A.0.423 by using a full version (not KernelOnly)? Any hint will be much appreciated.
I was going to follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/development/root-how-to-rooting-firmware-10-3-1-0-t2386405 but after reading the instructions again, I guess the warning “THIS IS ONLY FOR THE XPERIA Z (C6602/3) FW 10.3.1.A.0.244 / 10.3.1.A.2.67!” stopped me and I thought I better ask.

the better way is to downgrade to 10.3.1.A.0.244 / 10.3.1.A.2.67 4.2.2 firmware,root it then backup TA,unlock bootloader & flash the CM11
Thanks for your reply. That's the safest way and that's what I finally did. Worked great.
Do you know any custom ROM for C6943 ?
All ROMs that I found is for C690x...
My device is LTE brazilian with Digital TV.
And do you know the main differences between C690x and C6943?

You might like to consider looking at this thread..

Also if you are new try to avoid unlocking the bootloader..
If you decide to unlock it first thing to do is to take backup of ta before unlocking..
So for time being i suggest playing with roms for locked bootloader as they are easy to unbrick and also no warranty is void..
