[Q] [Xperia T] Can't update to JB

Hey everyone,
I know that there is an update to JB for the Xperia T a while now, and I just got my Xperia T today. So I wanted to update, but the PC Companion says it is already up to date. But when I look up the system details it says Android 4.0.4 and Build 7.0.A.3.226. Is this some kind of branded build?
I got the phone at the MWC directly from Sony, so no provider should have branded it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

If you really want the update, you can do it manually with flashtool. Maybe the update is not available to your region yet?
Do I need to open the bootloader for that? I don't want the update so badly, but I thought it should be available for a month... so, wtf?
I'm not pretty sure to which region it belongs since it was a gift from Sony.
You don't need root or unlocked bootloader, just flashtool and the JB FTF

Yep. Do not need to unlock bootloader. Also make a backup of your original firmware before you proceed.

How go I backup my current firmware? I want to save the one I'm currently running (ICS, 7.0.A.3.226), but if I try to follow the "create your own FTF backup" guides I'm always forced by SEUS or PC Companion to update in order to continue...

How about creating a CWM or TWRP backup?
If you have got a prompt to upgrade then i suggest you do, it sounds like you are running a stock a setup so upgrading is always a good thing...

Thats because there is a new firmware avaiable,
however, in the all in one thread your ftf has probably already been uploaded and linked there
but if you want to back up your current rom you can root, install cmw and backup, then you can always restore back to where you are now with no problems

Exactly, I wanted to perform the backup right before rooting.
I just got my hands on the phone, that's why I'm trying to back it up now and no, this specific firmware build is not in the ftf list in the All in One, fact that makes me wonder if this build is somewhat special...

well, if you upgrade via pccompanion, then thats the official relaease for your phone. Its from sony. So upgrade and use that as a backup before you start to mess with your phone.

[Q] Help

Does anyone have a link to a working way to unroot, so I can have it not rooted when I go upgrade on friday ?

You could flash a tot, delete/uninstall SU, or use any of the AIO's. Flashing the tot is the only sure fire way to get the 'out of the box' freshness.

why do you need to un-root it for your upgrade? They do not actually take your old phone nor do they really care. Your contacts are either backed up through VZW's website, google, or other.
Just back up your phone and go in and upgrade. You do not ever actually need to present your old phone. They only need your phone number.

system folder empty

Hello
I came across this website htconeroot.com
And i rooted my HTC One, it worked perfect, but I couldn't install BusyBox, so I looked it up and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236849
But first after I tried it I found out it was for sprint, and mine is not..
So it seems that it have deleted all data in the system folder of my phone and I forgot to take a backup of my rom..
So I wanted to hear if any of you knew a trick to reset my phone or anything to save it?
Thanks
Install a custom ROM or the official ROM with the RUU for your device.

[Q] Moving from CM11 back to stock Sony ROM

I am somewhat new to android...
Can someone please point me in the right direction here?
Currently I have an Xperia Z1 C6906 running rooted cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-honami with CWM.
I do not have a nandroid backup because I am stupid and did not know about this app.
I want to move back to the stock 4.4.4 Sony ROM and root. I cannot find this ROM or installation instructions.
Is this possible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: I have found XperiaFirm and downloaded a file through the software. I have a question though, I live in the US and I bought the phone second hand, it was originally set up on the network Claro. If i download the US Customized firmware through XperiaFirm and restore the firmware with FlashTool, are there any consequences?
Also, I'm not too familiar with how ROMS, Kernals, and Firmwares are all related. Can I just flash the firmware I downloaded onto the device and everything will be returned to normal?
you won't get no problems with different customizations, just make sure it is the right model number. did you backup your TA partition before? reply me in order to i get a notification. Thanks

I did not make a backup of my TA partition. Unfortunately, I didn't know to do that.
I have successfully flashed my phone using the software I mentioned above and everything is working as far as I can tell. Going back to stock, I think I have lost my root, unlocked bootloader, etc., correct?
Thanks for your help!

You lost your root etc on stock that is correct, but since you dont have your ta partition your camera performance will be lowered. İ suggest you to look at this thread for a fix. Good luck.

Recovery keeps saying No partitions selected for restore

Hi guys,
I wanted to make my phone stock again, therefore I downloaded a TWRP Backup called "M8_MINI_UL_TWRP_Nandroid_2.18.161.2_(inkl._preload-Ordner)" I assume that it's not
4.4 currently my system runs with the snap release of CM.
So maybe its a downgrade how to do it?
It keeps saying "E: No partitions selected for restore."
Thanks in advance

NO
This is unbranded. Factory unlocked phone.
NOTE: your HBOOT will show Tempered with relocked
Is there any possibility to brand it again and get the stock software?

i dont think so.
but to what propose you want to do that?
it doesnt work satisfying. Need to send it back. For example when somebody calls it crashes and the battery turns to 0% even if there were like 20% before in it a few seconds ago. Calibration didnt help

that could be a ROM error since you are using CM.
Vodafone will know that you mess with the phone because like i said the hboot will show as "tempered".
HTC usually repairs for free when its an hardware fault but if you looking to get another model thats different.
It looks like the ROM you downloaded from VOdafone its an nanodroid backup? if yes than i suggest using nandroid for the restore.
