Use Helium (Carbon) or titanium backup to backup your apps.

Settings are also saved?

make a backup atleast before you try if you are concerned
i went from the 4.1.2 tmobile branded to .67
it seems to have broken the tethering portion of settings (i didn't wipe data)
probably going to do a fresh flash to .67 before 4.3 or 4.4 comes out.

I think I will wait for the newer android update, I know there was a flashing method to keep your apps and settings. I got my backup so try it later when 4.3 or 4.4 is released.
Thanks for the quick replies!

I might have deleted something from system/app, if I do a factory reset and retry will it work?
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Nope...im in the same boat...
They told me you have to reinstall the missing system apps...
At the moment im searching for the stock at&t boot logo....any ideas?
You are rooted obviously
1. Backup apps with Titanium Backup
2. Flash Stock ICS with RSD
3. Root again and restore apps
4. Update to JB
I will do the same

Xperia flash stock well it remove root and cwm

Guys, I am just double checking with you to be sure.
As if now I have a stock .307 rooted with xdualrecovery cwm and touch.. I would like to know if all of this will be removed if I flash stock os via flashtool? (ie. If I want to return the unit for warranty purposes).

You can flash .244 with flashtool without wiping data just exclude wipe data.
You will have to re-root the phone again.
Ps: you can copy titanium backup folder and files to your pc and do a full wipe than copy it back and restore

Install the xperia z1 launcher you can find it in themes/apps section its great no lags whatsoever

U cant restore 4.2.2 data on 4.3. For getting your data back you need to downgrade 4.2.2 nd then restore your apps, contact etc nd then update to 4.3 via ota

The OTA will fail, because your bootloader is unlocked.

Better flash ftf with flashtool or use SUS and always backup you data before try them :good:
