General Xperia 10 IV - install new firmware - Sony Xperia 10 IV

Hi
ok managed to fix my xperia , here the link :
www.xperiablog.net/2018/01/28/newflasher-guide-to-install-new-firmware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/
I couldn't use flashtool , I used Newflasher instead and have to wait for correct guide to root xperia 10 iv
this guide is for another sony but mothed stay the same , good luck

You could search up newflasher and an XDA thread appears with installation guide

I haven't bought my Xperia yet because the regional version I can buy doesn't come with eSim, unlike the US version. So I could buy my local version and then use newflasher to change it to a US version and have eSim available ?
Even better would be if I could just enable eSim on my local version somehow....

Hi m8,
Short answer is NO, because it might get softbricked and you don't have a doco dload firmware to use in order to downgrade to previous firmware on your device.
Flashing another device cust firmware was working well whille on EMUI 9.1 and users could flash the international dload firmware version (VOG-L29 C432 one) without the risk of getting softbricked. Once EMUI 10 was released, a lot of users got their devices softbricked, because of security changes inside kernel and within system itself. Some of them managed to revived their units using different methods or when Huawei released the firmware for their devices, but there are still many of those who are waiting for an dload firmware release for their custs.
So my advice is to wait for docomo to release the update and don't flash VOG-L29 C432 dload firmware on your device (or you could do it knowing the risks and assuming them). Untill today, no user from docomo tested if flashing C432 will work, because of the chances of getting a softbrick.

Hi m8,
I will answer for both posts :
1. YES, you can remove them using ADB commands. For how to remove, check my thread from here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...w-to-remove-huawei-bloatware-vog-ele-t4014937
For finding out the name of the app you need to remove from your phone, install this app and use the original name of the apk's you need to remove (select app and press details) - https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/jumobile/system-app-remover-root/system-app-remover-root-7-1-release/
2. When you say you have the original firmware from docomo, what do you mean by that? Is it the dload firmware that can be flashed using an OTG adapter+memory stick (or Huawei NMCard) or some other firmware? As my knowledge, if you flash an EMUI 10 firmware and got softbricked device, YOU won't be able to downgrade to EMUI 9.1, just using a proper dload firmware (in your case the one released by docomo) could revive your phone. So in your case, i would wait for them to release the update ?
Let me know how can i help you more and be safe

For the dialer you can use the default Google Phone app and Google Contacts, maybe there are closer than what you're used to ?.
NO, you cant modify the firmware prior flashing it. If you / all of us could unlock bootloader and rooted our devices + installed TWRP on our Huawei phones, you could have flashed a custom ROM or remove/adding using ROOT ANY apps you would like. But as we can't unlock our bootloaders anymore, we have to use EMUI as is, customised by docomo or other provider. Only way to have a clean firmware is by getting an international or Chinese version of the device, one with C431 / C432 or AL-00 cust .
Installing other firmware COULD get you a softbricked device. I say could because nobody has yet tested flashing an C432/C431 cust firmware on the Japanese DoCoMo phones .

Ok, post some SS here (if you can't add them to imgur or to GDrive/Mega or other cloud service) so i can take a look at them and see what you have now.

If your device is a P30 Pro Single SIM HW-02L (VOG-L0J) with Build ID : VOG-L0J 9.1.0.136(C341E136R1P2), then this firmaware is your original one https://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=tags&tag=Huawei+VOG-L0J
Pay attention that in order to download that firmware you will need a paid account on their site

Ouch, i've replied you earlier about your firmware in case of backup, but it seems that you have a higher release version than the one available on easy-firmware.com (they have VOGUE-L0JB 9.1.0.136(C341E136R1P2) whille you have on your device v9.1.0.182(C341E136R1P2). So in case of flashing a C432 firmware on your device and get a softbrick, you are unable to return to latest available for your device. And as i've seen in your SS, there might be some problems regardless LTE basebands, which may be different in Japanese device vs European (International version).
So i would reccomend you to wait, maybe your next 1-2 firmware updates will bring you EMUI 10, alongside March/April security patches, as now you have January 1st 2020 on it ?

hi , dear SilviuO
unfortunately i haven't read this thread earlier.
I had upgraded my VOG-L0J to VOG-L29 10.1.0.151(C431E19) by using hisuite proxy .
at first , it looks perfect. until I executed factory reset.
now, almost google app are gone because of google play protect failen.
I tried to change to some other firmwares with hisuite proxy , all failed on installing step.
can you give me some advice for this situation?
thank you.

Hi there, m8. If you would asked me before?, i would recomend you to stay on your actual version... But now it's too late, so you will have to try using the GMS methods to install & use Google Services on your device.
I would also reccomend you to use a dload firmware to get back to your original cust, but there's no EMUI 10 n'or EMUI 10.1 dload firmware released for VOG-L0J .
For info about how to install GMS, use YouTube or xda P40 Pro thread:
1. YouTube - link 1 / link 2 or just search for How to install GMS on Huawei P40 Pro
2. P40 Pro xda thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...uide-method-to-install-google-mobile-t4120143 or https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p40-pro/help/gms-method-t4163345

If you have an dload firmware for EMUI 9.1 and you will flash it, there's a BIG problem: YOU WILL GET YOURSELF A SOFTBRICKED DEVICE! The only way for you to rollback to EMUI 10 and then to EMUI 9.1 is through HiSuite and by using the right firmware for your device. I know that there's none released, so unless you get yourself (maybe from a Phone Service Center) a dload firmware EMUI 10 or EMUI 10.1 for VOG-L0J to use it, then you'll need to use your device AS IS ?.
Hope you haven't used the EMUI 9.1 firmware untill now and you get to read this before

If you find a 9.0 firmware in xperifirm, you can flash it with newflasher.
Both have XDA threads.

Flashing EU version of XZ2 with US software ?

Hi !
A question : SONY released recently an update for the US XZ2 variant, but those dumbheads of course skipped the rest of the world.
My question is, if it would be safe to flash this new US software on my XZ2 EU variant ? Would that work at all ?

Need to upgrade my P30 VOG-L0J 9.1.0.196(C341E196R1P2) to anything more recent, more info inside

Hi,
Ive been trying to figure this out for more than one year and I havent been able to find any information on how to make this happen.
I have a P30 Pro bought on amazon, it is a DOCOMO Japan version but I dont live in Japan.
Latest security patch is from 2020 so I dont feel safe using this phone. I cannot update it since everytime I try it says I have to do it inside DOCOMO updater and when I try it says im outside their network and im not able to update it.
Is there any bypass? Ive tried VPNs on Japan but same, it doesnt allow me to upgrade. I would like to get some help on how to upgrade the phone to another firmware (GLOBAL) better, or to be able to upgrade it inside DOCOMO outside Japan.
Thank you so much, please any help I would be more than happy and grateful.

Still rocking XZ3 with stock Android 10, I think is time to update, questions

Hello guys, so as title says. I am still using my non unlocked bootloader Xperia XZ3 for EU and dual sim card version.
Was thinking to update to some new nice fresh version.
But I am not sure which one to take.
1/ Stay on the stock Android 10 and use it as always till today?
2/ I saw Sony released some libraries for Android 11 ? Is there some official Android 11 version for XZ3 ?
3/ Go the good old Lineage ROM way ?
Thank you guys for your tips and suggestions.
I have the same phone. I also think you need a x64 computer to get the software to the phone. I read that you need a x64 computer and 200gb free on the harddrive. May be wrong.
if you love your camera stay locked bl and android 10.
no official android 11 is released for the phone but we do have a alpha android 13 rom
Android 12 with weekly security updates (Lineage)
