FTF older than .402 for SGP512? - Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the 32GB Wifi ONLY Z2 Tablet, and I was wondering if anyone has or can find the FTF file for any version older than .402. I would really like to use the new root exploit but I need an FTF file older than .402. Thanks!

I'm looking for the same. Can we use SGP511 FTF, or does it have to be SGP512? I guess not that many people have SGP512.

I would think you could use the sgp511's ftf. I'm not entirely sure tho.

Actually I can confirm that you can't.

I am also looking fot a FTF older than .402 for the SGP512 (32GB)

I don't understand why someone wouod buy the 16gb version anyway when loads of the space is already used up by the os before you start putting apps on. Surely the extra cash is worth double the storage after paying so much for it in the first place!

I have received my Z2 tablet 32gb wifi and it's running .36 - I'm willing to make an FTF if someone can tell me how to make one copying directly from the device. All the guides I have found are how to make it from the Sony Companion files and of course, when I connect it now, it just offers me 402, not the version that's currently on there.

You can flash via flashtool the one posted before excluding baseband.
I have 6.1.1.B.1.10, I'll upload it for you.

Why do you need GB to sell it? It won't make a huge difference and the buyer is probably gonna end up upgrading it anyway
Anyway, here's the link for ICS in case it's useful for someone https://www.dropbox.com/s/7jfez2tekoajpuz/ST25a_6.1.1.B.1.10_None.ftf
Is imposible to find wit, there are some but all have bloatware of the carriers.
If you need it PM me
The ics baseband should still work on GB

you should change the CDA to Vietnam and let PC companion do the job. Never have any problem till now in my HK model with VN firmware
Noticed this rom does not flash the .510 kernal.
I flash the kernal only found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45070025&postcount=389) and everything is now working

What's the mean of "Vroot"? Help me, pls!
vroot is a way to root ur ZU without unlocking BL. Have a look at the thread titled "root step by step" or similarly, page 2, there's a link to download it. But it's in Chinese, and you REALLY have to figure out how to use it, or we in VN call it "đoán mò" ^^

it is a utilities to help you root the ZU. Download link here: http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
very easy to use, just download, install, put your phone on usb debugging mode and enable unknown source, connect to pc, run vroot and CLICK ON THE GREEN BUTTON, and you're done haha.
After that you should install SuperSU from Google Play and than use Titanium Backup to disable (freeze) the Chinese Super user.
I've flashed .510 firmware to my Z Ultra. I got problem, i can't turn on wifi.
Have anyone got problem like me? :crying::crying::crying:

I am curious to know how the kernel was created since I was told that Sony devices will only flash signed images. Does the bootloader need to be unlocked to flash the kernel?
after flashing your FTF i pluged back my phone on the PC and PC companion asked me to update my phone to 14.1.B.1.510 ^^, also can't turn on wifi. Hope after update it'll do.

Yes, this is something like that, and the reason people can't turn on Wifi as well, so I think basically PC companion realise that you installed a wrong firmware, and so propose you to update signed for your device.
After updating phone working perfectly, Wifi turn on and phone really is fast

C6833 Ultra, Debrand to stock Firmware

I have a C6833 and im trying to debrand it, as its currently on O2UK firmware but 14.1.B.1.510. Is there a stock WWE firmware out for this phone or a way to change the build.prop to allow Sony PC Companion to debrand it with a stock firmware.

use flashtool and flash the new one (14.1.B.1.526). Some members are saying they wish they had never modified their region in the build.prop

Ok, great. So in a few days we will have the newest 14.1.B.1.532 ftf file.

Yeah but its just a small update... nothing major. But will help with your situation
Will a full ftf file be released or just the small update, I presume it will be the full file so it can flash a phone to stock.

I think it is UK, Europe for sure. Unbranded, too.
I actually flashed a C6802 Firmware on my C6833 which took away LTE, but left everything else in tact.
Unfortunately from what I have read the C6802 simply lacks the LTE chip on the SOC so actually there is no way to get LTE.
But feel free to try. If all fails you can still always flash back.

I am battling a different problem at the moment, so cannot try today.
I hope someone has the time to try it out, since from what I understand, C6802 does indeed have same SoC as C6833, which is SD800 MSM8974
There were discussions that 'maybe' the antenna could be different, but my gut feeling says it is the same.
Lets see..

This work just fine. Got back LTE radio and everything seems to be as it should....except SOD.
I do everything with ticking an un-ticking optimized background, rebooting etc without any luck.

Did you flash 6833 firmware direct?
Can it be that the your prop file is not modified? I have no idea if this helps, just a guess..

Unbranded does not mean no bloatware. It just means, that it is not a carrier branded version like vodafone or t-mobile, o2 or whatever with their special software installed.
What you want is a vanilla android version for the Xperia Z ultra.
Look in the development forums. Maybe someone is working on this.
With root access you can also delete unwanted apps, though in the newer android versions, you can also disable unwanted apps what essentially freezes them.
lol i don't mean bloatware in that way i am fine with sonys UI its just o2 version has o2 bootup and loadsa of o2 software pre installed and i would like to flash it to the international unbranded carrier free
if this what i am looking for?
