I have CM10.1 install on my XZ, if I install by flashtool a stock firmware and relock bootloader with this program, I can update by Sony OTA or pc program in future? I didn't save DRM.
You can update with relocked bootloader, but if you have no backup of yor TA unique partition, forget about DRM keys and what is related to them (gracenote, trackid, BE2 and whatsoever)

No you don't need to downgrade.
Only if you own a z1 you have to upgrade to 4.3 or your cam focus will be broken.

Dont forget to backup ta partition. Unlocking bootloader will void your warranty and wipe all data in phone.
You can restore ta partition to return back factory state with drm certificates.
to backup ta partition you have to be rooted.
if your phone is not rooted yet, only way is downgrade to 4.2.2, which can be rooted.

I need to know, if I root my Z1 and after I need to use warranty, what will I need to do? Only reflash the original .ftf firmware? And about recovery? Sorry the noob question, but it's my first Xperia...

Yes, as long as you don't unlock the bootloader and just root your warranty will be preserved once you get back on stock rom. All you will need to do is flash stock ftf and the custom recovery will be removed as well.
Thank you maaan

The only way to root is by downgrading first. The video guide is in my signature

Hello my friends.
Yesterday the brazilian users began receive 4.4.2 and someone get the OTA file (https://mega.co.nz/#!rc4kGQSS!Q671NKxHn9lgUSCUYi7dIwjjlI1la1TxSb-lXq60Y3A) (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzXVUI3-70ddSXBpQnVvQW1TZ1U/edit).
But I would ask for someone to generate the complete file as the files available on the SBFand not just the update.
Thks a lot my friends.
I think trhat's 4.4, not 4.4.2 . since I already have this Build on my Moto X and it's 4.4.
Is real 4.4.2
Enviado de meu XT1058 usando Tapatalk
I got the 4.4.2 notification too. Will download and extract this weekend
If I have root and TWRP unlocked boot, bootloop give me the update? Or I can update via OTA without problems?
Sory for my bad english.

Do not update with TWRP and all other stuff - you will brick your phone. Install full 4.4 from the scratch by RDSLite and the update. I made it but I do not receive update yet, the system says that I have last software available

You don't care about root?
It's a real 4.4.2 OTA update.
If you have a custom recovery or a rooted phone you will get a bootloop.
You need to install 4.4 retail brasil firmware first, then you can push the OTA.

Well depends if 4.4.2 is rootable or not. Is there anything different in rooting 4.2 and 4.4?
Real problem is: Bootloader version is different. Play between 4.2 and 4.4 and 4.4.2 might be not so nice.

4.4.2 is absolutely the same in rooting as 4.4 or 4.2.2 - TWRP through ADB and supersu 1.91 after that - that is all
What about BL versions? I can't find information on that, just know that 4.4.2 got new BL.

Yes boot is new but it does not mean that it is impossible to root device. Go back to 4.2.2 will be impossible as I know (up to now at least) and that is all
Well then makes no sense to flash 4.4 since I already have 4.4 and I can't update to 4.4.2 because of the bootloader being TWRP. If the flashing of 4.4 won't change the bootloader, then makes no difference.
And all this problem is due to Motorola stupidity to forbid flashboot boot command. We cannot boot into a difference recover, we can only flash a different recovery and have it permanently in the memory of the phone. If flashboot boot was possible we could boot into TWRP and maintain original recovery, just like inserting a CD to boot the computer.
The 4.4.2 is totally rooteable, the method is very simple,
Put your phone in fastboot mode and flash the twrp 2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img then in fastboot select recovery(thats open twrp) then go to reboot/ system and give the option to root, select that, tour phone will boot with root acces

No dude. It only works with locked bootloader. The exact one you have.
P.S. Oh and you are not suppose to do that over 4.2, but over 4.4. Update to 4.4 first, then 4.4.2.

Where i found a tutorial to do this steps and the twrp img?
Edit: i only found this tutorial for unlocked bootloader
Enviado de meu XT1058 usando o Tapatalk 2
It would be nice to have a 4.4.2 full file or a 4.4.2 flashable through CWM. I'm at a limbo. I'm with unlocked bootloader at 4.4 with the 4.4.2 bootloader and can't RSD flash 4.4 because of it.
1)Does anyone knows if the DRM keys are erased when the bootloader is unlocked?
2)Are they restored when we re-lock the bootloader?
3)Can we backup the keys before unlocking?
Thanks in advance.

Do Google Play movies still work on a unlocked bootloader?
Do it work on a relocked bootloader?

If you have movies downloaded BL unlocking will erase them as you know. Just re download them! lol that simple. As long as you're using the same Google account I'm certain Google play can reauthorize them or something similiar, as long as they're not rentals.. i think.
Also ask for some help here:

Not the Moto X forums but they can steer you in the right direction!! hope they can help you.
Thanks for replying. I will make some research before unlocking the bootloader.
If I found out something I will post here.

I also flashed my AT&T phone with the Dev Edition software.
