For locked or unlocked bootloader?
If you have locked bootloader try jfxperias or ihackers ROM - both are very good.

You can use any Rom that is based on a stock firmware and kernel.
Make sure you have cwm recovery to flash Rom

Not unless someone manages to find an exploit to unlock it.

i heard you need to be on stock based firmware to install the recovery,
but you can flash on other roms and manually flash the kernel or something like that
im not too sure,

BL is already unlockable, one unlocked u lose all DRM, there is no need for exploit.
Root was needed just to push the recovery to the stock kernel.
And CM uses a completely different kernel than the stock and the only way to flash it by unlocked BL

Exactly. I'm not sure of the chances that non-unlockable devices will become unlockable. If I said any amount if time I'd be making it up :/
One of the devs said that Sony bootloaders are locked up tight though...

Download the firmware ftf file that is in the general section, download flashtool - the latest version which is 0.9.13.0 and flash the firmware.
So you mean guys is ftf update? Not android firmware update?..

No I was asking because I want to flash the stock 4.1 ROM as it was faster than 4.3 and 4.2
So should I pick any 4.1 stock ROM or should I search for MEA virsion?

Then be more specific in your OP next time.
Try this, it's Global so should have Arabic: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2LnvIbE8v3NXzdsa2FlUUhxbVU/edit
Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting so sorry if it is in the wrong place
I have got an xperia z and I decided to change over to cyanogen mod. I the got rid of that and flashed across a stock rom which works fine however it is telling me that I have an update ready but the update center won't do the update because it tells me I have a custom rom so does anyone know how to return it to how it was when it came out of the box?
Many thanks in advance

Relock your bootloader if you want to receive updates officially. Flashtool can do it in BLU mode.

The OTA will fail, because your bootloader is unlocked.

Better flash ftf with flashtool or use SUS and always backup you data before try them :good:
