Clarify firmware - Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers

Can anyone clarify the ftfs available? I see them from many different countries but only one carrier in Canada is up to date at .292. Should I go with that one or another one that is .277 and then hope for an OTA?

Use XperiFirm to download the firmware you want and FlashTool to create a ftf.[emoji6]
And if you flash another country ftf you will still be able to get OTAs.[emoji14]

You just need to uncheck "wipe userdata" in FlashTool.

Could someone eleborate further what "decrypted firmware" + Flasher is? Since I am a new user. I was always using xRecovary in addition to SEUS.

In terms of XDA, decrypted firmware means that this is original firmware like the one flashed with SEUS, but decrypted to extract .sin files which can be flashed with Androxide's/Bin4ry's FlashTool.
So, flashing these files is the same as flashing phone with SEUS (should be, theoretically, unless there's some strange problem with phone that only SEUS can fix)...
And here is another mirror: http://www.multiupload.com/JXU3T8PGYK
Thank you
Is this in Russian or English is there as well? Is there a Global Generic version available for X8 for Flash Tool? I've been searching for it.
Thanks...

What is the CDA number for Global Generic? I'd upload it too but I don't know CDA number.
It would be nice if you could release a firmware for E15a version
Forgot to quote the post I replied to...
There's no Delete post button...

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

There is 532 that Sony will release in a few days... The new build number 14.1.B.1.532 (C6802, C6833 and C6806)
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.

Never done it sorry mate... new to Sony devices. One of the other guys will help I'm sure.
Can you provide your build.prop mate, it would be a great help.

[Q] st27i fw on st27a

Can I safely flash ST27i firmware to Xperia Advance (ST27a)?
Won't it screw up the bands?

I'm asking if it's safe.
ST27i is different than ST27a. UMTS bands are not the same and I don't want to brick my phone or damage anything.

I have a ST27a, it's still on ICS and SUS says it's the latest fw available and I know for a fact it's not.
Downloaded a.1.100 fw file for ST27a and tried several times to flash it with flashtool but it was unsuccesful, it keeps throwing an error near the end of the flashing process. I was thinking on flashing ST27i fw to see if I can flash succesfully (to rule out phone damage or bad .ftf (for the ST27a version) even though I already downloaded the file three times).

Maybe there's no update for your region or carrier?
Would be better if someone make the file for you.
You can flash except basedband. Tick exclude baseband and flash the firmware directly.

You may also use XperiFirm or -as suggested above- FlashTool (into which XperiFirm is now integrated).
thanks
when i flash the firmware, does it reset to factory settings and delete all my data and preferences or just update with everything untouched?
