How to flash Xperia Z2 Lollipop 23.1.A.0.690 ftf?

XperiFirm Tool is used to download Lollipop (or any ordinary firmware) firmware bundle and then creating “firmware ftf” using Flashtool (steps mentioned in this tutorial, use XperiFirm tool if you haven’t got firmware update yet via PC Companion or OTA or you just need ftf file).

How to download Lollipop firmware via XperiFirm Tool and creating ftf using Flashtool?

Now we will use Flashtool to flash manually firmware ftf.

Facts to know:

Flashing firmware ftf file on your Xperia device doesn’t void warranty.
Flashing ftf file doesn’t require unlocking bootloader of your Xperia device.
No root needed.

Pre-requisites:

You should do?

Take a backup of all your data via PC Companion.

NOTE: We will explain the tutorial taking Xperia Z2 and flashing 23.1.A.0.690 ftf on it. Steps are similar for every Xperia handset on any firmware.

Step 1 – Download Flashtool

Download Flashtool version 0.9.18.5 (or the latest available) from here.

After downloading above Flashtool, install it.

On opening it, it may ask you to move files stored in F:\Flashtool\firmwares to F:\Users\PC NAME\.flashTool\firmware (Do move the ftf stored if asked to do so).

Wait then till it syncs the devices list (if it don’t syncs because you are not connected to internet, then leave it. It is not mandatory to do sync).

Step 2 – Download Firmware Ftf file

For D6502 INDIA region

Download D6502_23.1.A.0.690_INDIA_GIZMOBOLT.ftf

Step 3 – Put your above download firmware ftf in “F:\Users\PC NAME\.flashTool\firmware” folder

Additional Step :- Install Drivers

Install Drivers from the folder named “Flashtool Drivers” in the location where Flashtool is installed OR just install PC Companion on your PC and connect your device with it and then remove it.

Step 4 – Open FlashTool

Now Open Flashtool. See the “Black Lightning Thunder icon” at the top left corner. Click on it.

Step 5 – Choose Flashmode from Bootmode chooser

Now choose flashmode from given two options.

Step 6 – You will now automatically see your download firmware ftf file in the “firmware” section (left hand side) of Flashtool window. Select your firmware.

Step 7 – Wipe data if you wish

See the right hand side of window under the “Wipe” tag, all three options are checked if, will delete all user data.

So if you don’t want to delete all user user data and don’t want a factory reset then you should uncheck them.

Wiping full data is recommended, though (if you have backup).

Do it: Click on “Flash” button.

Step 8 – Preparing files for flashing

After clicking on “Flash” Button in above step, now FlashTool will prepare firmware ftf selected for flashing.

Step 9 – Connecting phone in FlashMode.

Important: Now enable USB Debugging on your phone and enable unknown sources option in your Xperia device and switch it off.

When prompted the notification of connecting your phone, connect it in flashmode (as chosen above)

How to do ? Press Volume down button and then insert usb in phone, you will see red and green light blink once, it means phone is connected in flashmode now.

As soon as phone is detected by Flashtool, flashing beings and wait till it is finished.

WARNING: Do not cancel the process in between once flashing has started or it will result in boot loop or device not booting up at all.

Disconnect phone as soon as flashing is finished.

Step – 10 Disconnect phone

Now reboot your phone. First reboot after the update will take some time.

Xperia C3 19.3.A.0.468 Lollipop firmware certified

A few days back Sony mentioned that Xperia C3 and Xperia T2 Ultra will also be getting Android Lollipop update besides Xperia “Z” series. Earlier Sony has rolled Android Lollipop update on whole Xperia “Z2” and Xperia “Z3” series, which is now available globally for Xperia Z3 users and Xperia Z2 users will be getting it by next week.

Xperia C3 is right now on Android 4.4.2 version and a new 19.3.A.0.468 firmware has been certified on PTCRB, which seems that it is the new Android Lollipop firmware which Sony mentioned.

Check out the 19.3.A.0.468 firmware certification for Xperia C3 on PTCRB.

Sony has directly rolled Android 5.0.2 update earlier so Xperia C3 will also be getting Android 5.0.2 update directly hopefully skipping Android 5.0.

We have already seen some alleged screenshots showing Android 5.0 Lollipop running on Xperia C3 which earlier seemed fake but now it looks they were real.

We will keep you updated once Sony rolls Lollipop update for Xperia C3 users.
