22 November 2014 at 23:29 delete

Copy C690X_14.4.A.0.108_KernelOnly.ftf and C690X_14.4.A.0.157_KernelOnly.ftf to C:\Flashtool\firmwares

23 November 2014 at 14:45 delete

I get the flashtool error: Processing of loader.sin finished with errors.
After that the flashing gets aborted.

23 November 2014 at 21:22 delete

I was unable to follow your description. After flashing the .108 kernel the Z1 compact was rebooted and started perfectly, but the screen stayed black. Therfore I was unable to go to the settings to enable the USB debugging etc. I have tried to flash with a full .108 firmware (still the same black screen). Only after reflashing with .157 I was able to return to a system showing screen content, but of course with the lost root....
Any idea?

25 November 2014 at 23:35 delete

Use the ftf files of z1 compact , Link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/guide-root-14-4-0-157-t2936586/

26 November 2014 at 02:00 delete

I did everything as you explained but it did not work. neither SuperSU or Superuser see the mobile as rooted. I have an Z1 c6903 with 14.4.A.0.157 any ideas?

27 November 2014 at 01:03 delete

That makes sense!!!
I was so dump.
Unfortunately the z1c kernels are not available at the moment.

28 November 2014 at 00:02 delete

What do you mean with "press the back button" cause Z1 doesnt have buttons, just display...

28 November 2014 at 02:15 delete

Why .ftf files are in fact .exe? Can you upload zip with .ftf files? I don't trust these executables. Just look here https://www.virustotal.com/pl/file/cbdec841eadf6e1bfaadb829d2e12418fb5794def1c279cd4aaa916f005d1990/analysis/1417120918/

28 November 2014 at 10:21 delete

The files does not show up on my firmware selector either. I have copied the files to the c:\flashtool\firmwares folder, but it does not show up. It only shows " X10 V1 BLRelock " Why is this? I have removed the files, copied them over again, I have restarted my computer. everything. Still does not show up. What to do?

I believe you have same problem as me. You do not need go through the whole process to get the problem.

Just try to flash the firmware version .108. Then start you phone and check the firmware version. You will see that it is still the version .157 despite successfull flashing.

11 December 2014 at 23:06 delete

Hello again,

i solve my problem. Maybe it can help you, too.
Please be sure that your USB connection mode is set to MSC and NOT TO MTP.

eh b0ss,
when I try to flash my C903 to -xxxxx0.8, it doesn't work. I've tried it in debug, regular varied options in both 32 and 64 but versions of the app. Wat do, fam?

Also, you nerds talking about a dead phone? Plug it into the magnetic charger the phone came with. Fixed my phone right up.

28 December 2014 at 12:42 delete

will i still Get Updates from company ??

28 December 2014 at 19:46 delete

It should also be mentioned that the error apparently lies with incorrect drivers for my device. However, device manager and the companion program claim that they are the correct drivers. When attempting to install from flashtool's directory (the common drivers amongst xperia + the Z1 driver sets) the installs fail.

Needless to say, this is busting my buffers something fierce.

29 December 2014 at 14:09 delete

will it erase my data(means i need to reinstall all my apps and lost all my picture...etc)

29 December 2014 at 22:22 delete

Flash update failed for me even though I followed your instructions for download and Flashtool EXACTLY to the letter. After flashing 14.4.A.0.108, my build number remained at 14.4.A.0.157. I even tried changing USB connection mode to MCP, but this made no difference.

This was driving me nuts as well. Turns out that Driver Signature Enforcement was turned on in Windows which was auto-rejecting the drivers as they were being installed. I disabled it and then it installed properly. The procedure to disable Driver Signature Enforcement is different for different versions of Winblows... Google is your friend...

Will this work with an encrypted C6903 on 14.4.A.0.157? I hope it doesn't involve turning off my encryption or a factory reset :-)

thanks...nice tuto..its worked...i got stuck at 'daemon started successfully' but then found the solution

Hi Waledac,

I flashed the 108 build and the phone's screen died. I cannot see what's going on the phone. I know that it's on, because Flashtool recognizes it, when I plug it in. Is there a way to flash it back? Hard boot it? Recover it? :-/

Thanks.
