Guys, what do you think, will i be able to flash Japan version of Z by international version of f/w ?
If you're talking about official FTF firmwares then no. And if you're talking about flashable zips through recovery then yes(if you can unlock the bootloader).
No, i`m talking about official FTF. Do you really think that i couldn`t flash FTF from C6603 mobel to SO-02E phone ?
First of all, you will not be able to unlock the bootloader, even if you happened too, then you would need to flash the international version f/w followed by the docomo f/w else it would behave weird.
When you flash the international f/w, you must select only the kernel or system.img (only) and then you must exclude that component while flashing the docomo f/w. This is the way to get root on docomo phones, unless some hack or vulnerability discovered to root it..
Previously I had Xperia Acro S from Japan and this how I got root on it..

i know this is an old thread but just in case anyone is wondering - the answer is "yes" you can flash international .ftf files (C6603) to the SO-02E and it works fine. i know because i do it myself.

Hello
Just wondering if everyone on bell with an Xperia z (c6616) is still only on 4.1.2
or if i am just not getting any updates, i see a lot of others like C6603 getting updates, i assume it could just be taking some time in canada.
Thanks
You can flash any other region's 4.2.2 ftf with flashtool. The only difference really is the bands supported. If you really wanted to, you can not flash the radio and just flash the rom, as long as it's C6603

Any tips on how to do this? I've been hesitant to falsh the C6603 rom because I didn't want to screw up the bands.

You can uncheck what you don't want flashed (modem I think it was... or was it baseband? Can't remember, but check the stickies for flashing info)

help me up
thanks in advance
Follow part A of this guide. Download any software customization from Sony & create an FTF with Flashtool and change your customisation version to 1270-6188.
Then connect your phone to your PC and the update should be available.
Note : It will be the generic CH (Swiss) version you receive, but the software does not vary from region to region anyway, only included apps.

I don't have any relevant bugs. If there is a NFC issue i don't know but wifi works fine for me.

If you flash a branded firmware you will get some more apps which you probably don't need. So if you flash one, flash a generic firmware

You can download with changing the customization number your old firmware(that method which kingvortex posted). There are 2 links, 1 with customization numbers and the other is this what kingvortex give you. Give a look on it.

If you root your phone and install the Recovery, you can make a Nand backup. This is a Backup of the full system.
You loose warranty if you unlock your bootloader. But here you flash just an other original SONY firmware, for this you don't need to unlock your bootloader and that means you won't loose warranty.

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

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.

(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?
