[Q] Question about ROMs and warranty

Hello developers and xda members!
Some months/weeks ago I asked about rooting and warranty.I got some answers that if I unroot it or use SEUS I will not loose warranty.
This time is about roms and locked bootloaders.
If I install a CWM Recovery then flash a ROM do I void warranty?If yes is there anyway that I can make it so it's like I never flashed anything so the warranty will still last?
If yes what is the best rom I can install for LOCKED bootloader(I don't want to unlock it)?
I want a rom with good battery life + camera (I don't care if it's not 100% perfect but at least better than the stock one!)
Any answer would be helpful!
Thanks

Already searched but I can't find exact answer.I really don't want to loose my warranty!
Also I care for the exact model (Xperia SP) and not for others

Even if you unlock your bootlader you wont loose your warranty (if that is the reason you are not doing it).Just make a backup of your DRM keys and the unlock code and keep it safe.

I don't generally want to unlock bootloader.
Even if I don't unlock it and just install a rom(e.x Existenz) would I need to backup DRM keys?
Also can you give me a SAFE tutorial about backing them up?
I also asked about a good rom that has a good battery life and camera than the stock one.
What's your opinion about roms?What is the best based on your opinion?

If you wont be unlocking the bootlooder, you dont need the backup.Here is the thread with anything needed to get started with your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701644
I've never used the stock or other based on it (I use 4.3+ ROMs ), but other forum members say that Existenz is the best one out there.Currently, I am using the leaked 4.3,but it is for unlocked bootloaders.

Why would I need the list of things to scan with a NFC enabled phone?
Anyway so I will not void my warranty if i flash a custom rom and then "format" it with SEUS?
That's my point

nope, SUS will just repair the phone, leaving no evidence of root or ROM

Oops..wrong link!Here s the right one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354704
P.S. Im not sure but I think you will still have your warranty.Back in the days, when i had my xperia x8 and it got hardbricked, I lied to my operator that it got fully discharged and it never turned on again.The trick worked and it went to Sony with a custom ROM inside of it .Anyways..today i had to revert to stock, because the tutorial for the leaked 4.3 said so, but i encountered a problem - SUS said that my phone has modified software and it didn't complete the operation.I had to flash an .ftf image file with flashtool.But after all, It was successfull.

Ehm I got a question.At the install instructions of Existenz it says
Flash the rom.
Flash NUT reboot fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2317432
Flash 12.0.A.2.254 kernel only with flashtool (see FAQ).
As I see NUT reboot fix is for Xperia Z...Do I need to install this?Do I also need to install .254 kernel only again?At the FAQ it says about How to flash 6.2.B.1.96 Kernel with flashtool <- but this kernel is for Z...What happens?
Should I flash the rom then reboot my phone and OK?
Should I flash the rom then reboot my phone and existenz rom opens and then flash the NUT reboot fix?
Should I flash the rom then instantly install the NUT reboot fix?
Should I also install the kernel (12.0.A.254)?
I am kinda confused :/

1. Flash ROM
1.b Reboot phone
2. Use .bat from NUT (I used it after OTArootkeeper failed and I couldn't mount /system r/w)
3. Flash the kernel with Flashtool
Step 1b and 2 depend on what you prefer, flashing the fix or rebooting and let the computer do the fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317432
You can use NUT for the SP. About the kernel I'm not sure. I am on LB atm.
Hope this helps (except for the kernel of course)

Camera Not working [STOCK][C690X][4.4] Update to 14.3.A.0.681 [Root & XZDR][LB/UB]

Camera Not working [STOCK][C690X][4.4] Update to 14.3.A.0.681 [Root & XZDR][LB/UB]
I would like to add to the thread mentioned below that I also have the camera not working.
Sony Xperia Z1 > Xperia Z1 Android Development > [STOCK][C690X][4.4] Update to 14.3.A.0.681 [Root & XZDR][LB/UB]
Device: Xperia Z1, 6903.
BootLoader unlocked
Previous Rom: [ROM] iHackers v3.0 [Xperia Z1] [ 1 2 3 ... Last ]
Previously the camera worked fine.
Admin: I've been flashing Roms since my Xperia X10, I am an experienced IT Guy with 15 years linux experience. I just never posted before because I always found my answers but this time I think I need to notify user: [NUT] that there are more users with this problem, reported on page 31.
Please allow me to post directly to the thread in question.
Thank you.

i solved downgrading to 136 then flashed stock 681 official
After i installed CWM6 recovery and flashed SU Package from chainfire website.
But battery draining too fast

Did you try doing a factory reset?

Do you know this solution of yours works or do you enjoy getting people to factory reset their phone? Technically, there is no reason why that should make any difference. Please explain.

I have read that others who have done a factory reset, had their problems resolved.
No need to be so hostile, I was just trying to help. Won't help you in the future.

Not being hostile at all mate. It's just that your solution doesn't make any sense, would have brought me grief if I followed your advice, and no I haven't read anywhere of anyone reseting to factory having solved this particular problem.
So a technical explanation would have made a difference!

same thing, after flashing 14.3.A0.681 my phone camera is not working (Z1 /unlock bootloader/rooted /before flashing this rom /my device was working perfectly)....
waiting for solution. start to flashing old rom 1136

I ended up flashing a stock kit Kat ftf. No root but at least I have a working phone. With camera and no glitches. I will look into rooting and installing recovery next time I get a chance.

Actually a Factory Reset is recommended every time after an Upgrade to clean up the installation. @hush66 is right, It was said 100 times here on XDA and before wipe everything you should had do a Factory Reset. Maybe it will not fix your problem but it does for some Battery Drain and some other stuff. Never reject a tip, but try by your self if you don't have nothing to lose.

hi Guys,
i have flashed my device again when camera was not working with same 4.4 ftf rom and now camera seems to be working again
can you confirm this fix for your device

please read the post again, it does not say that, it says to flash a FTF again
At the very least I so hope you have learned to read before you start going flashing or unlocking your phone.
You have unlocked your bootloader so its very easy
Flash a 757 FTF
Flash XZDR dual recovery kernel (From [NUT]s download page here http://nut.xperia-files.com/) (Extract the boot.img, flash it with fastboot flash boot boot.img, then enter recovery and flash the whole .zip)
Then flash supers.zip from chainfire http://download.chainfire.eu/420/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99.zip
then enter recovery (Philz and goto philz settings and enable verify root on exit, then reboot and conform to fix root)

[Q] Downgrade from 4.4.2 KK - 4.3 JB. Help.

First of all, I've tried searching and reading tons of forums/guides the past hours, but I can't get this to work. So please excuse me if I've missed something
I'm trying to downgrade my Xperia Z1 from (the horrible) KK update 4.4.2. to my stock 4.3 JB. I've tried flashing the following FTF's:
C6903_14.2.A.1.136_Generic Nordic NCB_1276-9897.ftf
C6903_14.2.A.0.290_Customized NCB 1276-9897 (Nordic Combined).ftf
C6903_14.1.G.1.534_1276-4314_R2A.ftf
All found here!
No one works. I keep getting bootloops (I can se the startup animation, then it restarts). I manged to get my phone working with using the orginal KK FTF (C6903_14.3.A.0.681_Generic NCB 1276-9897 (Nordic).ftf).
Could somebody please help me and figure out what the problem is? I've added my Software Info as an attachment.
Thanks for any replies!

Really weird, if you flashed them correctly from Flashtool v0.9.15 they should work, check the version of your Flashtool if is correct. Also try the one (FW .534) provided by NUT for C6903, here.

I used Flashtool Version 0.9.15.0. and yes, I believe so.
Flashmode->Choose FTF->Wipe Appslog and Cache, uncheck Data->Flash
That looks like 4.2. FW, and a custom ROM? I would like to have the original 4.3 .

Yes, but if that will work then you will have more chance to Update via Flashtool to .136 FW 4.3 and maybe get Root too (Optional).

Hm.. I'm not sure about a custom ROM, It's a road I'm not quite familiar with, if you understand .
There isn't any troubleshooting I could do that you can think of? Have i selected the right FTF for my phone? Is it actually possible to downgrade from 4.4.2. to 4.3?
EDIT:
If I'm going to delete my data, exactly WHAT am I losing? I want to know what I have to take backup of before trying that out.

OK, then, wipe everything and make a fresh installation of 4.3, I think this will work. Backup anything what is important to you, Pictures, Vids, or Data games to not going to download them again. I don't know, wipe everything..

You will find all on XDA just by searching the right Words.
You have to use "Flashtool v0.9.16", download the FTF from "Mega Collection" for your Model (C6902/3/6). Download the FTF "Generic" or "Commercial", the customization have nothing to do with that, put that FTF in the Folder of Flashtool, Run Flashtool, Flash, select the right FTF, put your Phone in "Flashmode" and when Flashtool asking connect the phone via USB to PC, Wipe everything Data, Cashe, Appslog. Done.
Do not ask for step by step, all what you have to know I already wrote.
Clik Thanx.

LB = locked bootloader
UB = unlocked bootloader
I also used @Nut's .757, my bootloader is locked and have never suffered from any camera issues.
Unfortunately my only suggestions would be to wipe cache..

I have noticed a trend with UB and camera issues. are you using a custom kernel? If not, i would consider relocking your bootloader or flashing your back up if you made one before you unlocked. Once thats done and you confirm camera working on .534.. follow this quide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52407809&postcount=2 this page is by @gregbradley

Go back to 534 using flashtool, then re-root your phone, then install a custom recovery, then install a custom rom, don't boot, boot to flashmode and flash the global or region specific FTF for your phone not the stripped version, obviously taking care not to include TA and System in the flash, also don't perform a wipe from within flashtool on the second flash.
Done
Obviously do this only when all else has failed, should only take around 20 minutes max

No I dont think so, I'm pretty sure you can relock your bootloader. There should be a guide in the develpment section.

upgrade or downgrade into 4.3 thats hope it will works

I had this issue with .681 using nut method aswell.
Followed all directions and wiped prior to flash in recovery. All was fine but.camera was pitch black and fuzzy it would take a picture with flash but only crap.
All I had to do was
back up using titanium
Enter recovery and factory reset
Wipe dalvic cache
Reboot
Reinstall vital data only from titanium
Do not restore any camera app or data
Working perfectly.
Hope this helps and is untested on .757

xperia v problem after root

hi everyone
i try to root my xperia v by instruction in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2654451
my rom was 9.2.A.1.210
after all done the kernel that i flash to phone was 9.2.A.1.199 according to instruction
now phone show update to 9.2.A.1.210 notification and when i instal that it show error cant update.
thanks

It's because your kernel is for 9.2.A.1.199 while your file system is 9.2.A.1.210, you can verify it in service info (*#*#7378423#*#*). Flash 9.2.A.1.199, root using that method, install android toolkit (scary alien, read carefully the instructions) to save your root, then update system through OTA or you can just try to find 9.2.A.1.210 kernel and flash it

Or try to download 9.2.A.1.210 ftf, extract kernel.sin using winrar, and flash it

Thanks
thank you so much . extract 9.2.A.1.210 ftf worked for me

No need to play dumb. It is dumb playing with these things without knowing. Lets serve this as a warning.
And good luck from my side, too!
