Have you installed cmw since you updated?
Also, Sony do not provide detailed changelogs.

Yup tried to install CWM, no luck .. Halts at Sony Boot Logo..

But you have an unlocked bootloader, so just flash a custom kernel with cmw incorporated in it
try doomkernel

[req]flashing build.prop

can anyone make me a flashable zip containing the build.prop i attached?
i somehow messed up a bit while trying to apply some mod that required a build.prop editing and i ended up making a backup which contains the edited build.prop file and now facing bootloops
my device is a stock deodexed rooted Xperia V .140

can anyone please help? im a total noob at doing this stuff, so technical languages might not work with me..
or can someone please make me the zip? because i am totally blind at how to make flashable zips
thanks

Try this one mate. Hopefully it will work.
View attachment build-prop-restore.zip

okay, should i resort to the hard way? reinstalling the ROM itself?

Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache?

i did
and this was the mod i talked about: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2421770
you were the last one to post there though
or maybe i really didnt mess up the build.prop, but rather somewhere else?

Don't know what could cause the problem mate.
You only edited build.prop? Did you also flashed the mod from that thread?
ps. Pls quote me otherwise i don't receive the notification

i was messing around this mod too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2424719
followed what was instructed, and now somehow got the loops
i guess i should resort to the hard way?
so all i need is the .140 ftf file right?

You have 2 options mate:
1)Flash ftf file
2)Since you are able to enter in cwm, download a deoxeded and prerooted rom (or a custom one) for your device, transfer it on your phone and flash it. (you will have to wipe personal data, cache,dalvik cache)

[Q] Kitkat Stock ROM

Hey guys quick question, i am currently living with my long suffering firmware that is jellybean...the phones needing a good clean out and update!
So i was wondering if there is a UK regional FTF for the latest kit kat?
BUT ALSO! i have seen generic ES (Spain) Regional FTFs for Kit Kat and i will be moving to Spain in September.. so should i just go a head and flash that? i don't know the difference between ES & UK (not that i have managed to find a UK version, maybe someone could point me in the right direction)
Also are these FTFs available for rooting? my phone is currently rooted with CWM and will most likely want to re-root after i have flashed with flashtools..
sorry to ask such nooby questions
Thanks
Chris

You can re-root using towelroot after flashing with flashtool

The UI is a bit different with lot of bloatware removed.
Battery drain will be there initially but it will disappear after play store automatically updates.
Hitting thanks will be more appreciated than typing it

i've thanked both posts and i am currently flashing excited! i havn't heard of towelroot before? i usually use doomlord kernel? does it definetaly work with xperia z? the reason i ask is i am not sure if after flashing the bootloader locks again..... do you need a locked or unlocked bootloader?
cheers

I had rooted using the old school method because towelroot was not availabe then
Towelroot will work to root and its the easiest way at the moment.
After rooting just download and install SuperSU from play store.
After flashing firmware Bootloader wont be locked again
Kernel and Root are two different things
You will have to flash recovery again though as flashing firmware will remove the recovery
You can get the recovery from here
Dont follow root instructions from the link as you will be rooted after using towelroot

I assume you don't have one installed. You wrote that your bootloader is unlocked. You can flash a custom recovery via flashtool or command prompt. Make sure you're taking one for xperia z. Otherwise you will hardbrick your phone.

Use the search function. There are some threads about it. If you want to use an app your phone has to be rooted. Though you want to be careful with those apps. Usually using flashtool is the better and safer way. Use toweleoot.apk to root your phone.

What's going on in there?
