It might be a good idea to flash it since they some times update the updater(preparing for 2.3.4). Except that I cant think of any reason why you would need to update. Maybe for the practice so you know how to do it when you are to install the 2.3.4?
About the arabic or persian language. I think (some on that can comfirm it?) that they are inside the euro-open firmware. To get it download and follow the producers described in this thread.

PS don't forget to backup every thing with CWR.

Bin4ry if you look in Ion general section there is a stock firmware thread that has all the released stock ftf files if you want to add those. Also in the XT section the thread mention above by gregbradley has more stock ft files.

Currently bin4ry cannot host branded firmware.
Are you able to use pccompanion? If you can and your phone was on 3 UK firmware you can create your own .ftf following the guide from the all in one thread. If you have any questions about doing that, ask in that thread or PM me.

Yes this is no problem, all Android Firmwares are multilingual, even the Software will automatically change the language to the SIM language So no worry you can even install arabic firmware and you will get DUTCH automatically when yours SIM is dutch

Thanks! That is good news!

Question:
What's better of these two, I have a TL (AT&T) so I can not root the newer FW.
1.) 7.0.A.1.303 - ROOTED
2.) 7.0.A.3.195 - NOT ROOTED
Thanks.. looking for opinions please as I'm certain there are several others on AT&T who are wondering.

This is not the place for questions like this, but in brief the answer is that it's your choice. If you want system access you need root, if you don't need root then 195 is the latest fw therefore probably better..

You can root the AT&T FW and remove bloatware if you want without issue. As for the two you listed if you flash them you will lose LTE unless you exclude the baseband when flashing. The first one you will be able to root using Bin4ry's method the second one you will not be able to root at all since you have a locked bootloader and Bin4ry's method doesn't work on that firmware.

Thanks Spectre51, I understand the limitations and was wondering if going for the newer FW .195 was really worth loosing root on .303.

[STOCK FW] Xperia V LT25i 9.1.A.0.490 Jelly Bean Singapore FTF

Original Sony 9.1.A.0.490 firmware for the Xperia V.
Downloaded in Singapore, but seems to be generic.
First time creating this, hope it works.
Hopefully someone can figure out how to root and create a deodexed version without bloat.

i'm sorry for asking this..
do you flashed a firmware before upgrade android version?
as singapore customized firmware contains whatsapp, foursquare out of box if i'm remembered.
and does not include play books, play movies and music unlimited.

Those are only pre-installed apps. I too found it out of the box. After updating through Sony PCC, those apps are gone. Also you can just flash this to update to 4.1.2 instantly.

Backup your data and go ahead.

I can't flash the rom posted my TS as Emma says my device needs to be unlocked (though i know it doesn't have to be). Have reinstalled the programme 3x but to no avail! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Emma can only be used in unlocked devices.
Just download flashtool and use that

Im confused. we use pcc for updating, file managing, for backup, etc. my phone bought from Kuwait that was stock middle east version rom installed. a month ago while I was using a ram cleaner app my phone is hanged badly that was not recoverable. then I flashed a ftf file of 4.3 .266(dont know which country version). but after that my phone is laggy. now I want to move back original middle east version. thats why i want to download and manually flash middle east version of .201. I think its not possible by pcc, is it?

Possible. But your software customisation no. should be one of ME version in your phone (build.prop). But since you've flashed another ftf, it might have changed. So, you have to change to your original cust. no. in build prop ([highlight]need root for that[/highlight]) and then connect with PCC. It will download your original FW. Obviously you have forgotten that number.. so, have to find it out using your SI (sales item) no. [remove back cover and see/ or on the box]. Then go to following appropriate link for your phone model and do a "find in page" with your SI no. You may get several entries. In that you can find your orig. cust. no.

So no need for root/ unlock, etc? Is there any counter which counts the number of ROM flashes? (IIRC, Samsung has such counters)
