I have an Xperia T with Xperia Curiosity and DoomKernel installed, I want to go back to the stock Sony ROM but am unsure how to do so.
Is this possible and if so, how do I do this?
I'd appreciate any help on this.
Thanks.
You should download a stock rom for Xperia T from here , and flash it with flashtool. On the link there are more information.
I downloaded LT30p_9.2.A.1.199_Generic UK from the link you provided and will proceed with reinstalling Sony's stock rom. Thanks!

Hi guys, i have already searched on Google and here in the forum and found many guides for saving firmwares but not the real solution to my problem so hope you can help me
I am on stock ics 7.0.A.1.303 on my brand new xperia T and would like to update it to jb soon but before to do that I would like to backup my CURRENT running firmware just in case..
All the guides i found requires to update to the latest firmware available with pc companion or the other sw and then generate the ftf firmware starting from the downloaded files.. the problem is that I want to backup my current firmware not the newer one I will download!
Is that possible? Any chance?
Byte and thanks in advance
Either root, install recovery and make a backup or search for a ftf with your currant firmware version in the all in one thread from the question and answer section

Thanks my friend. I did read your all in one guide: that's simply great there i found all the info i will need for rooting, installing cwm and then be able to install custom roms.. I plan to install CM soon
Btw about the ftf's i saw them also, but i see there are many customizations of the same ftf so to avoid problems I wanted to save my own
The problem is that I'm in Italy + i have a no brand phone and I'm not sure if my ftf is in that list.. maybe my current ftf is the General ics central Europe one?
Bye and thanks again
Yes, you can use that one

Thanks! Just last question: if I well understood reading around here, the firmware ftf's don't include the kernel also, so if after updating to jb I would like to go back to ics i should flash the kernel separately right? If so, can i flash "[Kernel] Stock Kernel taken from Xperia T [LT30p] 7.0.A.1.303 [Vodafone UK]" I found in your guide even if it says vodafone uk? I guess so as it is "just" a kernel but just to be sure.. Thanks again!

That will be fine, but the ftf's do include the stock kernel, so don't worry.

I believe you need to flash a stock version, you can find it at development thread where someone posted original stock roms :fingers-crossed:

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
I've never flashed any rom on any of my android devices. I just bought the new Xperia Z from Bell Canada and found out that it is still on 4.1
No updates from the career for more than 6 months.
So I'm thinking of doing this - please help me
use this Rom from XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2336874
Use the flashtool described in this thread and do an update of 4.2 with default settings of the flashtool.
Hopefully it works just like that..if not, i'll download the bell rom (4.1) from xda and do the same with the flashtool to get back to where i'm now
Is this a good idea? i'm not sure loading the 4.2 will do something to the baseband and kernel that will stop me from reflashing it back to 4.1 if things go wrong.
any advise would be appreciated.
Hello everyone,
I need help on my Z1 C6903 which have been rooted 14.4.A.0.157 unlocked bootloader and using custom kernel.
I cant update the official lolipop directly just using sony pc companion, so i hope anyone can help me, tell me what to do to get the official lolipop update?
Thx.
reflash back to stock i think the only solution.
Hi, I have the Z1 c6943, I live in Argentina. Can I use this ROM? I've read it's for c6903. Thanks for the help!

Hello. Sorry if this is a silly question; first time Xperia user here. Does the Xperia™ Companion software find unbranded ROMs that don't come OTA? I have a UK o2 Z3+ and want the latest official Sony stock debranded ROM. Could you tell me if the Xperia™ Companion software would download this for me or will it only bring up carrier-modified ROMs as if I were to check OTA?
Thanks!
Hi,
Any reason why you want to use the Xperia™ Companion software? From what you describe, it sounds as if you'd be better going with Flashtool/Xperifirm. You can freely choose from the available roms. Google for a guide for creating the FTF and flashing it.
Should work without B.L. unlocking as long as you're not trying to flash a modified kernel, but your phone will need to be carrier unlocked if you want to move from o2.
Cheers!

Hi,
Actually I love stock Rom only because they are very stable as compared to AOSP custom Rom.
But here in our country the STock Rom comes with lots of bloat. Is it possible to create a stock FTF by self with the help of Flashtool which doesnt have the bloats and useless apps so that my system run lagless. I dont want to unlock my Bootloader.
Any help will be higly appreciated.

there's nothing in FlashTool to allow you to work on the rom. You'd need to deodex the stock rom, work on it to remove what you don't want, then zipalign. there are guides to doing that, or you could watch the discussions here and see what happens. There was talk of someone creating a deodexed image.
Here's a thread regarding deodexing/zipaligning
BR.
deodex needs root
And z3+ BL needs to be unlocked to aquire ROOT. So I think its impossible.
