[Q] tablet form T-mobile firmware upgrade - Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I got my Z2 tablet from t-mobile germany.
It has 12 GB internal Storage.
Model: sgp521
Build-Number: 17.1.A.2.36
I would like to install the new firmware (for touch improvement) but the tablet does not show me any system update to install.
How can I get the new firmware running on the tablet?
Anyone else with the same problem?
Kind regards

Hi, same thing for me, maybe the Provider do not work on an Update to the the newest Firmware.
I read somewhere that the Firmware you mentioned, works the best and i'm runnig the same Build i had few to no Problems at all.
I takes Time but in my Opinion, when there will be Custom-Roms realased for the Z2 Tablet, i would recommend flash those, with many Reasoin's like regular Updates, Bug Fixes,... etc.
If you want to stay with the Stock-Rom, you could try to flash the latest one, here on the Z2 Tablet Forum (in General i think).
I hope i could help

Thanks.
I think I will wait for a custom-rom (like cyanogenmod or similar).
Is that in progress?

Hi,
i think there should be one in the Future, because the Kernel- and Rom-Sources are realased, means it shouldn't take to long until
a Custom-Roms arrives for the Z2 Tablet.

Couple of quick questions concerning de-rooting Tablet S

Hi,
I've got a Portuguese Tablet S (not XPeria, non-3G) that I rooted and flashed with the very first ICS that was released many months ago (the US 2.6.39.4 [email protected] #1 firmware).
While I like the new look etc, I've always felt that this rom was a lot slower and unstable than the original GB. Typing (even after going back to the default keyboard) has tons of lag, I sometimes see a screen-wide triangle while switching apps etc.
At the same time, I'm thinking about giving the Tablet S to my daughter and would like to wipe it and make it as standard as possible so she'll run into less troubles.
In a nutshell, I have 3 questions:
1) Are these bugs and slowness fixed by later official releases of ICS? Is it worth installing the release 5 he keeps suggesting?
2) If I install de OTA release 5, I expect I will lose root and I have no problem with that. Is there a risk of bricking it, though? I mean, going from a rooted to a non-rooted OTA... is that a problem?
3) Am I correct in believing that release 5 is only available in the US and I'm only getting this OTA suggestion because the Tablet's region was set to US on the old root? Is there a problem with installing r5? Will it have the Portuguese language as the current (also US FW) has?
Please let me know and many thanks for your help! :good:
Hi,
I have bought my tablet s in US but I live in Brazil. I use r5 and it has both Portugal and Brazilian portuguese.

Thanks Harerton - this is great to know! :good:
Only thing missing is asking again if installing r5 OTA will just unroot the Tablet S (which is ok by me) or brick the thing. Can anyone shed light on this?
Cheers!

Yes, you will lose root access if you update your Sony Tablet S to 4.0.3r5. If you can wait until mid-December, Sony will be issuing a world-wide 4.0.3r5a update for the Sony Tablet S.

help for a good choice from newbie!!

Good evening to all forum..i've just bought this great tablet.
I did all the updates until you get to kitkat pero 'I read that consumes a lot of battery.
I would like some advice on how to fix it, if you go back to the previous update .... ... or put lollipop ??
Considering that I am a beginner and would like to make a few changes
greetings
The best version of android for this tablet is 4.3(SGP3xx_10.4.1.B.0.109),great battery life and really smooth. Lollipop just release yesterday so we have to test how it run for the moment.
Hello Borexz ... then back to 4.3 flashtool should I use?
Currently I also customization tim and I would take it off
Could you kindly tell the operations to do to get Android 4.3 Generic and where can I get the firmware right ?.
My model is SGP321
Best regards:good:
I have been using Lollipop and I must say that is the same or better than 4.3.I recommend just flashing lollipop,i downloaded from here and flashed with flashtool:

For now we have to wait for a version for the region, when will be available in XperiFirm.
Not everyone can use without risk of firmware for HK and TW.
I personally will wait for the recommendation of @najoor.
His great review "Xperia Tablet Z: The best stock firmware for power and performance" is impressive.

Hello Guys.
I planning of rooting my Tablet Z (SGP312) still in new-ish condition.

Thanks for answer.

Firmware is very old, but you can root it with DooMLoRD_SuperSU.zip or DooMLoRD_Superuser.zip
Also KK and LP firmware are great, so no reasons for not updating. Also CM is working good on tablet.
Sony Tablet Z what you recommend
Thanks for the quick replies guys.
Keep up the really great work.
In the meantime Azar_98 was so kind to answer to my private message.
He recommended to put the 5.1.1 prerooted firmware onto it.
Just updated the tablet now there is 4.3 on it now (10.4 built) and there is available
the 10.5 built I think it is the Kitkat.
I see you have 5.1.1 prerooted on your tablet.
Is there any how-to on this site what explain the installation of this version ?
thanks again.

ZTE Nubia Z11 Mini - NX529J - International Rom / Firmware

Hello to anyone!
I just purchased this beautiful Z11 Mini. It arrived with a quite nice rom pre-installed, with GApps etc. But as far as I searched, there's still chinese writings, apps, and some kind of errors.
Someone knows where to find a firmware that could replace this one, with less errors and maybe more languages? An international rom, just saying.
Thanks in advance, really.
UP?
UP?
You can not port the ROM by CM ?
Here is a ROM but still 5.1.1.
Which version do you have.
The latest version is I think 1:30 ZTE.
Once the regular Z11 comes, there will be the marshmallow version.
But I want to have CM! I try all the time, but I do not come here throughout.

You must have Twrp installed on your phone and just flash.
It's the 1.30 version but you will get an Ota notification to update to V 1.32.
Multilanguage and stable.
Hey,
I have downloaded the last version from Nubia (1.36) and customized it to remove chinese bloatware and useless stuff.
It's light enough to flash the STOCK opengapps ! (64 Bits for 5.1)
First boot take a while when flashing stock but it's working smoothly !
Here is my share : https://mega.nz/#!ehBAHZAK!t6MVMKOhRNHjomBwfnKXDvvG4U5Nf-samL1EYNddFAk
Flash it from TWRP with a full wipe.

Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet Stock ROM SGP771_28.0.A.8.260_1295-6955_Customized-DE

Hello to the forum,
I'd like to root my Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet (SGP771). When I bought it on eBay, it had firmware Android 7.1.1 (SGP771_32.4.A.1.54_1295-6955_Customized-DE), so I have to downgrade it to Lollipop or Marshmallow to use the "Dirty Cow" exploit, being able to backup my TA-partition.
I tried several Stock ROM's (Android 5.0.2, Andoid 6.0.1) which had another customization than DE. And after flashing the keeps rebooting in the "Starting Apps" sequence (just after showing the "Android"-logo). And I don't know, what causes this behaviour because I used only stock ROM's and the Bootloader is locked and haven't been unlocked before (DRM keys are still intact). And when reflashing the Android 7.1.1 firmware this strange behaviour is gone...
So I think I really have to downgrade to a Customized-DE Lollipop-/Marshmallow-firmware to be able to backup my TA-partition.
So can someone provide my with a download link of a SGP771_28.0.A.8.260_1295-6955_Customized-DE (or as alternative: SGP771_32.1.A.1.301_1295-6955_Customized-DE) stock ROM?
Thanks in advance and regards
