Looking for untouched official stock rom image of Xperia SP... - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Tried different custom roms and now want to install official rom again.
I just want an untouched image (or at least without ANY modifications) so I can get feel of JB again.
Please share links from where I can download it and install on my SP.
Thanks in advance. :highfive:

The FTFs online are untouched and you can download and flash them safely. This require Googling by yourself
However if you still paranoid, you can resort to the XperiFirm method.

you can try UItimate PureXSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658043

[STOCK] LT30p Stock+Rooted 9.1.A.0.489 flashable in CWM

I know TiMiN8R made a Stock Rooted Deodexed rom for everyone but some people asked for just a Stock rom that wasn't deodexed so that's what I have made here. This is a stock firmware with only root added. Please note the kernel and CWM are not packed into this rom (though the reboot fix is) Please read the note at the bottom regarding bootloop issues.
Here you go: http://d-h.st/tAn
Installation for Unlocked Bootloader
* Make a backup - Always backup just in case you ****up (Data backed up through Sony's Backup & Restore app can be restored without issue)
* Flash any kernel you want to use that has built in recovery.
* Enter recovery
* Factory reset
* Flash rom.
Installation for Locked Bootloader
* Make a backup - Always backup just in case you ****up (Data backed up through Sony's Backup & Restore app can be restored without issue)
* Use flashtool to flash any generic ftf that can be rooted using Bin4ry's method. If you are already on a LT30 ICS/JB firmware that is rooted you can ignore this step.
* Root using Bin4ry's method.
* Install CWM for Xperia T Locked bootloaders
* Enter recovery, factory reset and flash the ROM.
* Flash the stock ftf (same version as the rom used ftf available in my signature) in Flashtool but uncheck Wipe Data, Wipe Cache, Wipe app Log. Also exclude everything except for Kernel. (This is needed to update the Kernel to the latest stock version otherwise you may get a bootloop.)
**Keep LTE**
If you have a LT30at or LT30a and would like LTE with the LT30p rom then once you have flashed the above go back into Flashtool and flash the latest LT30at or LT30a ftf. UNCHECK Wipe Data, Wipe Cache, Wipe app Log, and exclude everything EXCEPT for baseband. This should put LTE support back on the phone but keep the LT30p system.
*If you started on a rooted LT30at or LT30a firmware and flashed this rom straight from that you do not have to reflash the baseband as it is not overwritten by this rom.
You will need to reinstall CWM after flashing this rom if you want it. CWM is not baked into this rom.
**NOTE**
If going from ICS to JB you will get a bootloop after flashing and rebooting phone. Hold the power and Volume up button until the phone vibrates three times (simulated pulling of battery for non-removable batteries). You can then flash the JB kernel through flashtools to fix the bootloop.
You can also flash kernel from cwm.
http://d-h.st/wye
It's just a stock kernel with no cwm. It's especially for locked bootloader but unlocked bootloaders can use it as well.
Just use that link and you will find it

Thanks a lot, was waiting for that !
Edit : I already flashed TiMiN8R Deodexed JB ROM, so I'll be fine if I only flash your rom over it, Right ?

Hello Spectre51.
So, if I flash this ROM, it will use the Kernel I used to get into Recovery?
I'm coming from HTC devices, so Sony is new to me...
I would prefer to keep the stock kernel for now. In EMMA I do not see the option only to flash a kernel? I see the ICS stock .195 rom and then the JB Alpha build. Is that the .489 version?
I'm currently on the .489... Like the ROM but only need root on it.
Thx,
j
Download flashtool from the dev section. You can flash kernel s using that

Deodexed or Odexed
I flashed your rom last night. Flased overon TiMi8R. Still, I have a lingering question. Is Odexed faster than Deodexed?

5 second google search
http://www.redmondpie.com/odexed-vs-deodexed-the-difference-between-the-two-android-roms-explained/
Basically deodexed roms are easier to modify. Odexed roms boot up quicker (On first boot only)

There is some warnings at the end of the post about bootloop if you move from ICS. Have you read it. Perhaps you need to flash a JB kernel to solve it.
Hi, any chance to get the same flashable .140 zip ? Tried OTA update to keep root but it didn't install...

Back up your sd card, then delete/format it in storage settings or format it in cmw, then restore your data

Hi, thanks for the offert, don't waist your time I already updated it and the root methode with screen display still works on this firmware.
Sony released open source zip for XT fw number .141 did you heard about ? Country specific or little bug fix ?

Could you make a prerooted US ATT ftf? I want to test and compare a couple things. I just don't have time to deodex and root the stock ftf that I have because of my job.

How to go back to stock

Hey guys, really new to android.
I unlocked my bootloader and installed the PAC Rom.
Now im wanting to go back to the stock rom.
I got an error using flashtool so i used CWM recovery to flash the stock firmware, but now it will not boot.
I still have the PAC icons when i first turn on the phone for some reason, and then it says xperia and i get to the coloured animation and it just stays on that.
Anyone know why this is or how to fix it? i have tried multiple tutorials but cant get it working.
help!
Repair using SUS or EMMA?
You are still on the cm10 kernel.. Flash doomlord kernel..
Can be found in the original android development..

Download this ROM and flash it using Flashtool. Hardly takes five minutes flashing and bingo!
P.S. It says it includes kernel too if that's the issue
Can the global unbranded rom be used with C6602 as well?

All stock ROM FTFs will include the kernel, CWM ROM zips don't, so they're no good for returning to stock unless you already have a kernel to go with the zip.

If you're on stock ROM, I think it will give you status 7 error
Flash Carbon ROMs included kernel with fastboot and your recovery will change

You might also try my NeoWave rom, as it looks and feels like a Sony stock rom.
Walkman is included, Sony Camera won't work on AOSP, however.

u unlock ur bootloader and u fastboot flash included kernel that's all u need; all custom/cm kernels has a recovery pre installed in it.
and don't forget the golden rule...always backup data before playing with your device

My One mini2 bootloader getting temeperd & lost stock Fw. Help need.
Hopeless images
That means you have unlock bootloader. Now you need to follow instructions to flash recovery and root your device.
Check this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-mini-2/orig-development/recovery-twp-2-7-1-0-one-mini-2-t2801370
After reboot your stock should be back.
I used that recovery & CM ROM. CM too much buggy so I wanna back to sense. There's no sense base ROM or no stock link. Pls can anybody show the right way.

Install stock ROM instructions

Hi all.
I know there's a post somewhere on the forums that gives step by step instructions for installing a rom and rooting the device but i can not seem to find it.. does anyone have a link for me?
I installed TWRP and now I'm stuck on B574 and I just want to upgrade to the latest version..
Anyone have advice on how to fix that?
I'm a complete noob (only flashed one rom like a year ago and haven't done anything since)
So please dummy it down for me.. I can't even remember how i installed the rom i have now
Thanks in advance!

Okay.. but that says I need to have the stock B610 rom first? Is there no way to just upgrade my current rom to B610 without flashing a full rom? My internet is very slow and I can't download a full rom..
My current rom is supposed to be a stock rom but it doesn't want to update.. and from what i've read that's twrp's fault?
Any other advice besides just flashing a full rom?
