Try many methode to root, z3 firmware 32 bit boot but no touch working. Rooting z3 frimware and then try z3+.
Now bootloop phone is restarting.
Any one try to root.

There's no root exploit yet. You cannot flash a firmware that's meant for another phone, or you'll need up with boot loop.

Boot loop on strat, but u can flash via recovery if u add xzdualrecovery from prerooted firmware , if not try flash orignal firmware from flashtool

XZDualRecovery does not have a version that works with the Z3+ yet. Flashtool hasn't even been updated to work with the Z3+.

flashtool work good with z3+

Flashtool is working with z3plus but unfortunately it's incompatible version and if you will use flashtool now with your z3plus you will lock your bootloader...I mean it will change status allow bootloader unlock from yes to no

I quote from the creator of Flashtool:
To Xperia Z3+/Z4/Tablet Z4 users : Flashtool is not yet compatible with those devices. Even if flashing went without issues, it seems it break some important features such as the ability to unlock the bootloader.
Please Xperia Z3+/Z4/Tablet Z4 users : DO NOT USE FLASHTOOL YET. I am working on it for the next release.

Are you wiping data when flashing with flashtool or you have done just flashing without wiping anything?

[FTF] SGP321 10.1.1.A.1.307 Unbranded

For 16GB Xperia Tablet Z LTE (SGP321). Flash on variants of this device at your own peril.

Use Flashtool v0.9.11.0 to flash.
If you want root, unlock your bootloader, flash a kernel with recovery and flash superuser.
Is it possible to root on this version (.307)??
I need root >_<...
Root is not a "need", but a "want", and the answer to your question is probably not. Just unlock your bootloader, flash a kernel with recovery then flash superuser.
I´m not able to flash it.
Flashtool says "Device connected in flash mode" and that's it.
Other Firmware are working, any idea?
Did you update flashtool to the latest version? Only 0.9.11.0 works for Xperia Tablet Z iirc.
EDIT: 0.9.11.0 flashes fine for my XTZ on OSX.
Tried it and installed, thank you!

Hey,
works great thanks, I don't have the DoCoMo crap anymore
I have the LTE 32GB version, is there anyway I can resize the partition or I need to wait for a 32gb version you think?
Thanks again

Not by flashing via flashtool. You may be able to resize partitions using adb shell or something like that, but that's highly dangerous and untested. There is no 32GB LTE version of the XTZ for worldwide though, so you may be stuck with only 16GB of storage.

If one was to go back to the stock docomo firmware by putting tablet in flashmode will pc companion download the docomo firmware?
Basically how do I go back to 32gb version until I get international LTE 32gb

I guess repairing via PC Companion would work. Flashing the DoCoMo ftf might work, but not sure about that.

I lost root and custom recovery after flashing this. But this update brings about the wonderful update to the touch screen which makes the tablet so much more easy to use.
Hopefully, someone will create custom recovery and root for this later.

No FTF file can be modified. It will not unlock your bootloader, nor will it do any dastardly things to your tablet other than update it.

Simple, no
Don't accept any OTA firmware if you unlocked bootloader
You can update firmware via flashtool by downloading stock FTF firmware

Very good advice. Don't do OTA
If there is no ftf posted you can make one
Use PCCompanion and use the "repair" option. It will download the necessary files to flash your phone but will fail to flash because if your unlocked bootloader.
Then use flashtool to make the ftf from the downloaded files which ou can then flash in flashtool
the instructions on how to do this are in the all in one thread

No easy method work for now. Only solution is downgrade to 4.1, root and flashing some rom based on .199 build. Or there is some script that should help you retain root with OTA upgrade, but you still need to downgrade to 4.1.

First of all CM won't work with locked bootloader, and you can't install it using Flashtool. It contains Superuser app so it's rooted.
You can always flash your device with Flashtool using .ftf files to return it to stock firmware.
If you choose to unlock bootloder consider backing up TA partition of phone (there's a tool for that here but the phone has to be rooted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598) so you can restore your DRM keys later (if you return to stock firmware and you want to have Bravia engine and the rest of the stuff dependent on DRM).

yesterday unfortunately, I made confusion between ROOTING and UNLOOK BOOTLOOADER so I have unlocked bootloder using flashtool and the day after I have re-locked it. Have I lost sony DRM ?
I think no... becouse I don't make changes that affected device partition, is it correct ?
So I ve got to wait for better and simple method to root my device before make other experiment, what do you think about it ?

I think you lost it when you unlocked it cause TA partition got formated, it doesn't matter if you relock it afterwards.

Check if in the Album app if pictures change when using Bravia Engine; if you didn't back up your TA partition before unlocking, as far as I know, you lost your DRM keys forever, relocking won't change a thing.

CONFIRMED I lost DRM keys...
At this Point I decide to dance, I' ll downgrade to a version to root device by doomLord patch first. I found a post in which users explain how to install Bravia Engine 2 using PimpMyRom App. Finally I Will upgrade to Last Xperia firmware.... And I' ll do a big backup!!!
Are you according to me? You suggest to me something different?
I'd not worry much abt Bravia Engine. The pics appears slightly brighter, shadows are therefore a bit better, and the colours are a tiny whee little bit more vibrant. If I had to put it into a number the difference is somewhere below the 10 % mark %. You get better results by taking pictures properly in the first place.

Why I can't remove virus from a rooted Sony Xperia E1?

Hi!
I've a Trojan (Qysly.BX) on my Xperia E1.
I've scanned it with some app antivirus, but I wasn't able to remove it because I haven't rooted it or, better, I was thinking so.
I rooted my Xperia, but I'm still with my trojan.
What can I do?
Reflash a firmware (or ROM using recovery)
You can also remove the "virus" using TWRP recovery with file manager

Yes, you need to unlock your bootloader, but It voids your warranty
Using flashtool you can reflash your firmware without any problem (and doesn't require unlocking your bootloader)

Also rooting voids my warranty and I've already done it!!! In each case, it will terminate soon.
Can I reflash my firmware without data loss?
I was been making a backup of all my data.
Where can I find the 20.1.A.2.19 firmware for my smartphone?
Is there a guide about how to reflash it?
Can be this? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1AAC4lt7nzORGdfZGZSTndzTHc/view?usp=sharing
I need to follow this instruction?:
a) download and install latest Flashtool
b) download the 20.1.A.2.19 for Sony XPERIA E1
c) paste the ftf file downloaded in step b) to folder „Firmware“ included in the XPERIA Flashtool
d) open the XPERIA Flashtool, click on flash and choose downloaded firmware, than click ok. Important - if you do not want to delete any data of your phone, just uncheck flashing userdata.sin file. All data will remain in your phone, but sometimes it can cause additional troubles. So it is better (and I recommend that) to do the backup of your personal data, than proceed with clean instalation and then restore your personal data.
e) turn off your phone and when Flashtool shows pop up window, connect phone to PC with holding volume down button
f) after few minutes all is done and your phone gets the new firmware
Can someone tell me if there is something wrong and if this firmware is what I need?
It depends.
D2005 = Single
D2105 = Dual
Like I've said you can flash a new firmware to get rid of that nasty virus, this is also (somewhat) better than using custom ROMs (yes, for a while I used my ROM Cheetah, but It seems official firmware is more stable)

Download the correct firmware, and flash it with Flashtool. You may need to install the drivers for MSM8210 Sony platform
The firmware I need isn't avaible in Xperifirm

Jelly Bean 4.3 is not available anymore
On my Xperia E1 (D2005) there is Android 4.4.2 (KitKat).
