[Q] Help in downgrading Xperia SP - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my friend updated the Xperia Sp to 4.3 and now it is very laggy. He need to downgrade to 4.1.2. I need the ftf file link for downloading and flashtool link as my old flashtool dont have xperia sp driver.
As this phone is bought from customs I am not sure to which region it belongs. Do I need to exclude baseband when flashing? Do I need to skip final verification?.
The baseband version of 4.3 update is 8960-AAAAATAZQ-40031007-18

See my tutorial in General section or via the link below in my signature.. All you need is explained in the tutorial
Good luck

You cannot go from a deodexed to odexed. You will have to do what the above post says and flash a new FW with either pccompanion or flashtool

[Q] Help need to Root my Newly bought Xperia Z C6603

Hi,
I just bought a new Sony Xperia Z Europe version (C6603) and I would wish to root this phone.
I have updated it to the latest available software which is 10.3.1.A.2.67.
I tried to search in the development thread and couldn't find one.
I found the Doomlord's rooting tool kit but I would also require the .ftf file (10.3.1.A.2.67) for the same firmware so that i could root it.
Could anyone provide me the Link for the same?

You're in the wrong forum. There is a Xperia SP forum, search for it and ask there.
Generally download Flashtool and a .ftf file of a stock rom and flash it via flashtool

Firmware
I tried much but failed to find kitkat or higher
You're on the latest available software for your device (C6606). It seems that T-Mo aren't interested in the C6606 any more and won't approve updates for it.
I've seen around the forum that some people have flashed the C6616 firmware to their C6606 with success. You could try that. I'm not sure if you would lose any T-Mo features like wifi calling though and it's obviously at your own risk. Nothing should go wrong though.
If you want to try, you can download and flash the latest C6616 firmware (10.6.A.0.454) by following my guide - How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format
Firmware
Thanks @kingvortex i dnt want any t mobile app at all but the flashing will support official sony updates? And c6606 is compatible with c66016 stock firmware?

Most people have found it better to do a clean flash when upgrading to Lollipop, so it's probably best to backup your apps and reinstall after flashing. Apart from that you shouldn't have problems if you follow my guide.
Clean
I dnt want any data i want a perfect stock rom only thats become possible only because of you thanks i will message u tonight
flash tool
@kingvortex buddy hery is something i didnt get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
(WARNING : Since Xperia Z, sony added a new set of files I called bootbundle. Those files can be bundled from 0.9.13 and can be flashed from 0.9.13 only. To all those flashing devices from Z edition to all after Z, it is highly advised to use 0.9.13 and to be sure FTF you flash contain the bootbundle set. I've been reported of hard bricks because of missing such set of files from bundles.) copied from there
what is this thing ?? and download link for flash tool there are to many links on that page
Just use the latest version. You can download it from here. I suggest downloading via torrent if you can as it's the fastest way.

How did you actually get 5.0.2 installed to your phone after you flashed 6616? Did you use PC companion or do an OTA update?
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks a lot dude. Would've been stuck on 4.3 for I dunno how long if it weren't for you.
So since I updated to 5.0.2 a couple days ago I can't seem to use mobile network for internet access. Only wifi works. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Did you try downloading Internet settings? It's under Settings -> Wireless & network -> More -> Internet settings.
