Anyone have this seriously annoying problem where you're from cyanogenmod 11 (pimped kernel) trying to flash the stock ftf (757) and it gives this error? How you fix this?

You get this error only when you try to flash 757 or any firmware?
It could be that you have bad firmware or old flashtool...
Try to flash 534 and see what's happening...

Wow I didn't know how my ftf became corrupted. I've just tried another ftf (same version) and it works. Funny because my ftf used to work but only when on stock.

Hello all,
I am currently on .434 NL version but I want to flash .350 Indian version and check if I can get the updates via Sony Update Service because via OTA, it didnt work. Now when I try to flash .350 indian version, flashing gets aborted.. I am not able to understand the problem... :crying:
Give us more info: which error, which Flashtool version, etc.
If you have unlocked bootloader you will not be able to update via ota.i tried many time and many way but i couldn't.

What I found is, when I was on .434 NL version, I couldnt flash back to .350 Indian version but I didnt get any error when I reflash .434 NL version...
Maybe the ftf is corrupted?

I dont thik so because previously I had used it very well... Let me tell u what I did with my phone till now..
Got new phone with .350 FW, got notification for OTA updates of .434 FW, got updated.
Rooted n installed CWM,flashed RomAur rom. I wanted to come back to stock so I flashed .350 FW (worked well at that time) and searched for updates, got notifications.. Tried updating OTA, the updates were downloaded but while installing it got failed. So I flashed .434 NL FW and now I am not able to flash .350 FW to check if I can still get the OTA...
Maybe delete and install flashtool again.
If you have pcc on,close it.

Ok bro.. Thanks... :good:
HI there,
I am trying to flash a ROM, however, I need to use flashtools first to flash C6603_10.3.1.A.0.244_GenericCE-stripped
The fact is that when I open flashtools the portion that says WIPE is blank, not showing anything. I have tried to flash it anyway, but afterwards I see in my phone that nothing really happens. I have downloaded many versions of flashtools (including the latest) but it's still the same.
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or how to activate the WIPE portion in the screen.
Thanks in advance.
Bad ftf file try another one.

Do you know by any chance any good C6603_10.3.1.A.0.244_GenericCE-stripped?
Thank you
I don't know what is stripped firmware but here ce3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386475

I assume the OP is trying to install this rom -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387191
Flashing that stripped FTF is part of the process. I haven't flashed that rom, so I'm not sure what the ftf contains or if a wipe is even required when flashing it.
Edit: The OP says they are trying to flash it first. The instructions in the rom thread seem to suggest it is the last step.
Is there some sort of misunderstanding of the steps required happening here?

the "stripped" version of firmware usually only includes the kernel. its for upgrading firmware to flash a rom that is a newer firmware so you need to flash a custom rom of the same firmware after flashing the stripped firmware
Thank you all. As a matter of fact I am trying to flash the YUGA ROM which I find is great. What I am going to do is flash another ROM with .244 and then I will be able to flash YUGA ROM.
Thanks again.

you need to flash the firmware first or you will end up will a few things not working
Hi there, I need to downgrade from 4.3 (10.4.1.B.0.101) to any Europe 4.2.2 with recovery + rooted stock firmware, becouse I want to flash this firmware : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/development/rom-rooted-deodexed-zipaligned-stock-0-t2759467
I have locked bootloader and no recovery and root on my 4.3, that's the main problem why I need to downgrade to 4.2 as well I have locked BL and I don't want to unlock it.
Thanks in advice.
(have searched before posting this thread, so don't suggest me to use search, 'cause I've found only useless things. I need EUROPE, not with china language and for unlocked bl..)
To downgrade, you will need to flash an FTF. You will not find an FTF that is prerooted/has a custom recovery. FTF files are unmodified stock firmware only.
You will need to flash a stock FTF with Flashtool, root and flash the dual recovery yourself (or use the unrooted install method for XZDualRecovery).
Search in the general section for a 4.2.2 FTF. There are many available. The region does not matter if you're going to immediately flash a different rom anyway.

Please point out where I said you needed CWM to flash an FTF. You use Flashtool.
1. Download a 4.2.2 FTF - Here
2. Flash with Flashtool - Download
3. Install XZDualRecovery using the unrooted method.
4. Flash the rom mentioned in your original post.
All this information is readily available in the forums, so a quick search should help if you're having further problems.

So I downloaded a stock rom 10.5.1.A.0.283 for my C6603 and it appears to be .zip not .ftf which I don't know how to flash
I used to flash .ftf using The Flashtool .. so could anyone please help me with this?
and I use C6603 that is rooted but locked bootloader, just to be clear!
I wanted to show you what I got when I unzipped the rom but since I'm new here I couldn't post a link to the photo!
Where did you download it? Technically, a FTF is an archive, so sometimes your PC will assign the same icon to it as a zip.

Unfortunately I forgot where I downloaded it
I thought so firstly but I can unzip it with WinZip which I can't do with .FTF, right?
more than that The Flashtool couldn't recognize it as a firmware!
Thanx for replying
What is the filename? You might have downloaded a prerooted stock firmware, which needs flashing in recovery.
Also, WinRAR/WinZip etc can extract FTF files.

It doesn't look like it. Try renaming to FTF and see if Flashtool accepts it.
If not, you can download this C6602 stock FTF that I uploaded. That is 100% a FTF and usable with Flashtool.
