I've read back and forth on different forums about this and it's still not clear to me so please enlighten me.
Is it necessary to totally wipe the phone, formatting and stuff like that when flashing a new rom with flashtool.
I've read that in some cases ppl had problems with old stuff still beeing there.
And next question how do I do it with flashtool?

All you need to do is to flash an ftf. You don't need to do anything more than this.
Here's a guide how to do that

If you've got recovery installed then as always, reboot and go into recovery mode

Flash a stock ROM via flashtools and make sure that you wipe everything.
And next time, search. Bucause there are many threads that cover your issue if you don't mind wiping the entire phone

And it is Xperia...
Don't use locks if you can't remember them...

Enter the unlock code wrong 5 times and you should get an option to enter your email and password. Remember system only counts entries when they are 4 dots or more so these kinds of questions seems fishy to me.
At least spell Xperia correctly, seriously. Enter it wrong enough times then sign in with your Google account if you have internet access.
Don't post this message to several threads. I have the feeling seeing your history that the email recovery is not a solution for you.

No, just flash.
If you want once a custom ROM/Kernel it would be good that you make a backup of your TA before unlocking bootloader.
Edit: if you want root, there is a stock based custom ROM with root and recovery(for 4.3).

I noticed that also. A normal thread name is really not like that. A thread name says in some short words the problem. Example: bricked phone says much more then only i have a problem. That is the sense of a thread name

I'm on 14.2.A.0.290
But ...
Just got an OTA popped up , an 8.2MB download
Still saying it's 14.2.A.0.290
I haven't installed it yet.
Are the OTAs incremental? I didn't think they did upgrades to a release without changing the build.
Or, is my OTA notification wrong? This is UK unbranded handset
I installed it and now my keyboard seems to be screwed up, it keeps disappearing right in the middle of me typing

I have had this update too haven't noticed any changes though. Unbranded c6903 UK.

I was rather hoping it fixed the stupid speaker calling bug.
Could it be the update that brings 4G for the three network?

This Ota is really old. Just some Sony apps got updated(bloat apps). Don't bother. You will be better off flashing . 136 ftf
