[Q] Whick ROM version is the right one for me? (STOCK) - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I want to go back to how the phone was out of the box. I now have installed UK branded .423 4.1.2 JB rom. I cant find the 4.2.2 update on either Pc companion or my phone. So what i am wondering about is : How can i now for sure which version is the "right" one for me? I live in norway,but i havent found any STOCK roms who says Norway or my carrier Telenor.
Could on of you please link to the right version that i need? TFT.
And do i have to do a full wipe from the rom i know have installed when i am installing the new one?
cause then i dont bother setting up my phone until i have fixed.
Much appriated, thank you ,

I have found this site. http://ipsmart.blogspot.no/2013/06/firmware-all-sony-xperia-2013-official.html

I think the .423 firmware you're talking abut is 4.2.2..just check it out once again....and nope,u needn't wipe any data...and all firmwares work with most of the carriers unless ur phone is carrier locked,if u want to flash any FTF's,make sure it is for ur device (C6603,etc) to avoid any issues..anyways have fun!
Hit thanks if I helped you.Sent from my Killer Xperia Z(C6602) using xda premium.

RomWiz - I'm on T-Mobile and I keep getting "Data connection lost" < which means i can't use my data (Since i'm on a contract - Data is important)
I heard that some sim's might have an issue like this when your out of the region.
I think i might have flashed a messed up stock rom because before this week, i never had any errors and stuff whatsoever.
Lukenda - Thank you for the link, I will try it.

Sony z help

I brought a Sony xperia z today but the model is L36H which is suppose to be 6602 it's the China version.
My problem is that I can't get the US google play store and no GPS icon on here.
I tried downloading the google play US version but it never opens it just shuts off.
Anyone know how I can delete the china version of google play and install the US one?
If it comes down to it i guess I will have to look into getting it rooted.

I think that you will have to root. You can't delete for example the playstore apk to replace it for another one without root.
For GPS try...
Settings, accounts, Google, location services, switch on.
I could not get my GPS working no matter what I tried. Only this way worked. Good luck.

[Q] Flashtool doesn't recognize my Z

I know this sound like newbie and I start thinking I'm newbie right now.
Yesterday I have my Xperia Z (C6602) Region TH. flashed to DoCoMo and it was working perfectly except a little thing. It has a lot of bloatware so I managed to get root and uninstall a lot of them. Hour later OTA arrive so I install it and my phone stop the networking. 3G and Wi-Fi working really strange (I supposed to know this is Baseband problem not because I uninstall DoCoMo bloatware carelessly)
So I use Flashtool to flash DoCoMo (101.D.0.333) again and realized later that it was not my careless uninstall. It was OTA that kill my phone feature so I tried flash my region Firmware (10.1.A.1.434) to get the baseband back and flash DoCoMo fw without baseband again later.
And my problem starting from here. The phone not recognized on Flashtool (it say "Cannot identify your device") and it ask me to input what my model is (So I choose C660x) and it make my phone ready to flash once I put it to flashmode. But no, once I put it to flashmode flashtool itself couldn't recognize my phone is in the state ready to flashing so it keep saying my phone need to put in to flashmode by press Vol.down while plug the USB.
I have no idea how to fix this. I already tried uninstall-reinstall the USB driver. Try SO-02E driver (which is the same as Xperia Z) but it still not working.
And each time my phone reboot it keep asking me to choose the language and tell me to put the DoCoMo sim. Does this mean I need to put the sim first to make the phone pass the state on Unboxing?
All I need right now is to flash my region FW back first. (Or maybe find some way to make radio.zip from FTF). Should I root and put a recovery into my LOCKED bootloader and find some way to install radio?
First ask the Mod to move the thread to Q&A.
Are you using the latest flashtool beta6?

Does flashing firmwares void warranty? Also does it have any effect on lets say the emic or flash storage on the phone? And lastly, isn't that 14.1.G.534 a prototype/journalist firmware?

Only Sony and/or your provider can confirm that, but even then it would be nice if you could tell us what version are you on now? You don't even tell us that so how are we meant to help you......
Oh sorry! Haha I'm on 4.2.2 at the moment. When do you think the UK will get a 4.3/4.4 update

Why don't you just use Flashtool to get it to your phone using one of the available ftf's ?

Flashing with flashtool don't need root acces and it can't be detected.
You have to read before ask,you will have a reponse faster.
Read that ,if your Z1 is not on the list wait a week or two or flash with Flashtool
I would update through the PC companion. Many people seem to have encountered problems flashing with flashtool on this update. It was taking forever for the ota for me as well

When the Z1 first announcement it come with 4.2.2 already. So if he ask for 4.3 or 4.4 that meant he on 4.2.2 already.

Whether you use UK generic or any other generic one does not make a difference whatsoever, but it's up to you.
I have never encountered any problems when using Flashtool. Just make sure to use the most recent version.
The 4.3 is avaliable so if you use OTA or SEUS you get it.
As for rooting, it doesnt avoid your warranty unless you remove the root and install a clean version when you deliver the device for repair or replace it.
Only thing that avoid the warranty is unlocking the bootloader.
Keep your .257 rooted version and wait for a rooted locked version for 4.3.
Btw there will come a hotfix version in January (newer 4.3) for Z1.
4.4 will come April/May i think...
