Hi, I want to return to stock. I have U/B running ihackers 2.1 but i don't have TA backup. I don't mind not relocking bootloader but just want to return to stock to sell my Z1. Can i just flash a ftf with flash tool to return to stock or does not having TA matter?
Yes. You can go back to stock flashing stock FTF without TA and with UL.
Thank you. Would you recommend flashing. 290 or 136

136. It was meant to fix few bugs so better than this one there isn't.

Please follow the instructions precisely
You must downgrade to ICS version 303 in order to use that method. Then upgrade following the method to keep root
Thanks for reply
OK by this way you mean that I'm going too lose my data

I dont think so, but you can back it up in Titanium Backup anyway and restore it later
Do you have any idea why the backups & restore stop app working ? And can you tell me more about downgrade.

Because Sony closed that loophole.
Downgrade to 303 using flashtool
Root using bin4rys method
Install CMW
Flash a pre rooted JB rom (Mine for example)
Before rebooting flash a JB kernel.
Sorry I forgot to tell you my bootloader is locked is this safe..?

Yes. You will have to flash a stock JB kernel then.
Do it in flashtool by flashing a stock JB ftf and exclude everything except kernel.
And please can you give full tutorial..

The search button at the top right of your screen will help.
Just type into it "Root many android by bin4ry"
That will tell you how to do it.

Firmware 7.0.A.3.195 can not be rooted.You should downgrade firmware or upgrade to jellybean then choose option 3 in bin4ry`s method.
I had 4.1.1 on previously and I flashed 4.2.2 with flash tool and I had problems at first as it wouldn't flash with TA ticked so I backed up TA before installing 4.2.2 just in case it screwed it up.
I tried flashing TA from the firmware package with everything unticked and it still won't flash the file to have chances of getting mobile bravia back
Is it safe to flash the previous one from 4.1.1 TA from the firmware.
Also tried restoring from the TA BACKUP software no luck

Xperia Z was released with 4.1.2..where did 4.1.1 come from?and the only solution to your problem is to just start over.. Download the latest ftf of 4.2.2 and root it with DooMLoRD root toolkit.. Cheers!

Im looking to flash back to 4.3 im non rooted stockA, can I just flash a. 290 FTF?
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes, but I will recommend 2 things, Wipe Appslog, Data, Cache and use .136 instead of .290, they are both 4.3 buy .136 is better.
Hello friends,

Stock firmware will flash stock kernel.
If you have to backup you can also lock bootloader.
And yes, after that you can install anything from PCC

I have a question related to this topic.
I had Doomlord`s custom kernel v21 with root and unlocked bootloader.
Im trying to revert back to stock rom and kernel via flashtool and generic nordic rom.
Flashing goes alright but after flashing when i try update my phone either OTA or trough pc companion they both failed.
pc companion says that i have modified sony and i guess it same with OTA update.
Should i do something also, because i thought flashing with stock rom should revert all but bootoader back to original.
Thanks in advance.
You cannot use OTA or Pccompanion with an unlocked bootloader,
You should flash the latest version FTF using flashtool
