6. Close Flashtool ( DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP )
7. Boot your device , and Connect Your Device to PC with USB Debugging Mode On , go to Settings > Developer Options to enable it. Also Enable Unknown Sources. Go to Settings > Security and check Unknown sources.

ReplyWill it wipe out data?
Replylocked bootloader

ReplyNo
ReplyNo
Replyinstall proper adb and flashtool drivers on windows 8.1 then only it will work
ReplyWhy the files didn't show up in firmware selector?
ReplyThx you its work for me
Replyis it possible with Kernel 3.4.0-pref-gaee6e5a
ReplyJust check the build number it should be 14.4.A.0.157
ReplyCopy C690X_14.4.A.0.108_KernelOnly.ftf and C690X_14.4.A.0.157_KernelOnly.ftf to C:\Flashtool\firmwares
ReplyI get the flashtool error: Processing of loader.sin finished with errors.
ReplyAfter that the flashing gets aborted.
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....
ReplyAny idea?
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/
ReplyI 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?
ReplyThat makes sense!!!
ReplyI was so dump.
Unfortunately the z1c kernels are not available at the moment.
What do you mean with "press the back button" cause Z1 doesnt have buttons, just display...
ReplyWhy .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/
ReplyThe 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?
ReplyRoot was successful, however after root I'm unable to download anything from play store...please help....
ReplyI have cleared cache, data n even uninstalled updates of playstore....removed Google account n added it again still no go....
In playstore it shows downloading but nothing downloads...
i couldn't flash it to 14.4.a.0.108. Help me pls. Tryed 10 times.
ReplyU must have downloaded the wrong file. The files are in ftf only not exe.

Help!
PLEASE HELP I TRIED THIS METHOD WITH MY SONY XPERIA Z1 COMPACT BUT AFTER STEP 6 DISCONNECTING FROM FLASH TOOL MY PHONE SCREEN WONT TURN ON. THE LED LIGHT IS BLINKING AND THE PC DETECTS THE PHONE INTERNAL STORAGE BUT THE SCREEN WONT TURN ON. ITS LIKE ITS DEAD. WHAT DO I DO PLEASE HELP!!!
Replyyes I will post a tutorial soon :)
Replyeh b0ss,
Replywhen 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.
will i still Get Updates from company ??
ReplyIt 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.
ReplyNeedless to say, this is busting my buffers something fierce.
will it erase my data(means i need to reinstall all my apps and lost all my picture...etc)
ReplyFlash 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.

THX in advance...
After flashing kernel 108 my phone got black screen. Phone worked, ADB was enabled so I can use Android Remote Control to backup my data and use Sony Companion to repair. Tried three times, flashed both kernels cause the same effect. Have anyone else expirienced this?
ReplyThis 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...

ReplyHi Waledac,
ReplyI 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.
