Hi all, does anyone have Z2 or Z3 apk ported to Z in zip extension? Or at least even Z apk ZIP, becouse I've screwed my system, now it's in bootlop, that's why I need any of these files. Thanks for anyone who will try to help.

Flash a stock FTF with Flashtool and next time backup before messing with your system.

Becouse 1 app I need to reinstall whole system? I had lots of apps and other needed stuff, so I don't want to loose it. I need only flashable home application zip and that's all

That's why you make a nandroid backup before messing with /system.
Anyway, does the recovery you're using have a file browser? If so, copy a home apk across manually. I don't think there are any provided in flashable format anywhere.

Alright, I've fixed it installing nova launcher through CWM, now I need default home apk, could you direct me to it if you know where can I find it ?
Look in the cross device development section or extract it from a rom zip. As you don't say which firmware you're using then it's hard to help.

Oh, forgive me, Stock KitKat 4.4.4. I just wanted to get Z2/3 clock, which is nicely designed and home application was a little bit newer, so I screwed.. Now I will now that I need to flash entire rom to get this. By the way, my ROM is fully deodexed by Rajeev.
Extract the home apk from the rom zip that you have.

I don't have that rom in my computer anymore, I don't know how to extract that file from it either :/
Then download it again, open the zip file and find the home apk. I can't give you mine as I'm on an odexed rom.
When you have it, you need to copy it to /system/app and set the permissions rw-r--r-- (0644).

Well, I found my own way how to fix, downloaded home apk from somewhere else and pushed it straight to the system. Mods can lock the thread, thanks for ur help too.
You're welcome.

I was messing around with the system/app folder and replaced the camera files with ported files. Now the camera app doesn't work and I didn't make a backup of those files. So please can someone provide the required files?
As you don't say which firmware version you're using, then just extract them from a rom or flash a stock FTF with Flashtool without wiping.
Next time you're modifying /system, make sure you backup.

What is an unbranded stock? And how do I know which one should I use?
waji97 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Branded = Stock Sony firmware with carrier-specific settings and/or software
Unbranded = Stock Sony firmware without the above, also known as 'generic'
Custom = any modified or non-Sony firmware e.g. MIUI, CyanogenMod, AOSP builds.
And how do I know which one should I use?

To find out what firmware your device has on it currently, just go to Settings > About Device > Build Number. Then search on XDA or Google for the ".ftf" version, flash it with Flashtool and you're good to go.

Hi again. Maybe I didn't explain myself properly... I know I can install recovery connecting Phone to the computer. What I wanted to know is if it's possible to install recovery from the Phone, without connecting it to the computer using an app. I allready have root. Thanks Anyway.

I'm pretty sure you can do it with flashify, you just need to be rooted, which you already are.

Do you read before posting? Flashify was already suggested 3 days ago, only 2 posts above yours. I know you're eager to help, but spamming many posts a day isn't the way to go about it. ?
It most probably won't work for our device anyway, as it doesn't have a traditional recovery arrangement with a dedicated partition like most other non Xperia devices do.

As there's a tutorial for making FTF files, and also I could make ftf and everything gone OK.
But now I wanna know how to make a Deodex patch? Does it need programming? Or it's easy?

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.

You can extract it yourself using flashtool and few other tools or use adb commands to pull systemui.apk if you are yourself on stock 4.4.4. version.
So what exactly interests you so i can write the method for that
