After trying Pie, I decided to downgrade to Oreo. Unfortunately I can no longer download the NOBA customization from flashtool. And since it has almost no bloatware and no NFC icon, I would love it if someone could supply me with the H8324 FTF of 1313-6167 51.1.A.11.51-R16A Customized NOBA). Thanks in advance.

Hi, does anyone have a link to a ftf for the Xperia C1905 15.1.C.2.8 World version (Android 4.1.2) ????
I 'broke' my Android 4.3 rooted build for a Locked Bootloader and have to start over again.
I have found Indian and Indonesian versions which I could use if there is nothing else available.
Thanks in advance.
[Update]
Found [TUTORIAL] Firmware Collection + Tutorial How to Flash It Manually
which has a list of C1905 fw releases which may provide the build I need.
Hi,
I would like to go back to KK on my Z1C. I don't have the latest KK .157 Firmware anywhere. I now saw that Xperifirm does not offer to download that Version anymore for my customization. I usually use the generic DE or UK files. Is there a way to get to those old firmware files through Xperifirm or by some other way?
I could not find a generic .157 DE or UK file. I could use that as well.
Kind regards
Philipp
I wanna know this too.
Xperifirm use official Sony servers to download firmwares. But Sony remove old firmwares from its servers.
But, some old firmwares with a different customization (region/country/operator) could be downloaded with Xperifirm, just sort a list of firmwares by a version.

There is no list with old firmwares, only last firmwares
so how can we find old version?kitkat for example?

You are wrong, look to the attached screenshot. You should select D5503 phone model, after that press "Check all" button and then XperiFirm finish to update firmwares list you should sort the list by "Latest Release" field and you will see older firmware. For example, 14.4.A.0.157 is the Android 4.4.4 based firmware.

Yes and no. I agree you can see some 14.4.A.0157 but not for all regions, only for some strange one, which did not release update yet. If you want to have for your own region, like in my case eastern Europe I can only download the latest one
So ...?

The only way to download old firmware I found on sony site xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/46-sony-xperia-z1-compact-d5503
you can find also diffrrent models as well there
good luck
@oilman67, of course you can download old formwares from different sites, but my answer was about possibility of downloading of old firmwares from official Sony servers with XperiFirm tool.
And as I say later
some old firmwares with a different customization (region/country/operator) could be downloaded with Xperifirm, just sort a list of firmwares by a version.

You could use firmwares for different countries/operators in your country without any problem, just choose your native language. For example, now I use in Russia phone from Japan with a firmware customized for Japan operator NTT DoCoMo.
On xperiablog[dot]net[slash]forum[slash]resources[slash]categories[slash]xperia-z5-compact.95[slash]
you can find some older, but not all
hi
Sony T2 Ultra dual
My phone Cda is 1280-3257 android KitKat version 19.1.1.C.0.56 R3B Customized MEA
there's an update to lollipop but it's not R3B it's R5C so if i upgrade it to the new firmware 19.3.A.0.472 R5C that's can make any problem or troubleshoot like wireless dropping, battery life and facing other problem of my phone or that's will be normal for it .
yes there is difference,
which is.... kitkat and lollipop
if in Xperia Firmware Downloader you are pointing correct device model & device region,
for your device's lollipop update, then there is no harm to your device.

R3B like R5C if it on the same customized
Purchased an unlocked Z5, version E6653. On bootup, it has TIM splash (telecom Italia mobile) and all the TIM apps. I've deleted all the apps and tried to reset the phone but the TIM splash remains.
Inserted T-Mobile SIM and was only able to get 3G. 4G wasn't found or needed to be tried again later.
How can I reset the phone so there is no TIM related splashes or software? Root and ROM flash or is there something else I could do. I assumed my new unlocked phone would be bloatware free and I could just pop on the SIM and go.
Tried different APNs but that didn't help.
E6653 had support for bands 2, 4 and 12 so I'm unsure why I can't get this on the Sony Xperia Z5 I bought for T-Mobile.
Any advice?
You could flash any unbranded firmware. You don't need root to flash it.
Firmware could be downloaded by Xperifirm and flashed by FlashTool.
Flashtool topic is in Sony cross-device sub-forum.

Will I lose any camera functionality by doing so?
No, camera will remain the same. Just choose appropriate model and unbranded firmware with your area (country, language) customization.

What about Bravia engine 2?
And if so, can I get it back?
Also, are windows 7 and Windows 10 both supported in this process, not just 8/8.1?
All functions in unbranded firmware will remain the same.
All Windows versions is supported, but last versions require some tricks with driver install.
Why you don't ask your questions in Xperia Z5 forums? In this for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/help
Hi,
I have an Xperia M5 E5603 which is currently build number 30.2.A.0.100 (Marshmallow 6.0) and want to downgrade it to Lollipop 5.1 or Kitkat.
I've used Xperifirm which is showing Latest Firmware build 30.2.A.1.21 - but I'm not sure which version of Android this is?
Can someone please help with the files I need to downgrade UK version? (not central EU, specifically UK)
Thanks!

Thanks! I got the 5.1 Nordic Generic firmware for this particular model and am on the Flashtool download page. I just want to check something so I don't brick the phone:
"C4 and C5 users please do not flash using Flashtool. It will brick the device. M5 users please do use FSC when flashing or it will brick your device."
What does this mean by FSC? Should I use the latest flashtool, are there any additional steps I need to take??
Thanks for the help
