[Q] HELP! Where can I find a Brazilian R800a stock ROM?

Hi everyone! Someone can tell me where can I find a R800a Brazilian stock ROM, doesn't matter which version, since I can upgrade!
Why I want it? Well, Sony Ericsson Brasil take ages to release an upgrade here! We're still with 2.3.3! And I flashed the North American ROM of R800a to get my 2.3.4, but I wanna be able to return to Brazilian version, as soon as 2.3.4 is released here!
There's a lot of small differences that makes me want the Brazilian version!

Hi
Did you try to upgrade the Brazillian stock ROM through Sony Ericsson PC Companion ?

Every time I use PC Companion or Sony Ericsson Update Service, I get the mesage that I already have the latest software! =(

Ok, download this [USB Flash Driver] and install it.
Then download [WotanClient 3].
Open Wotan Clinet 3 and follow instructions (your phone battery must be full)

Next, set model: R800, then choose Brazilian stock ROM
I think it is Firmware: 4.0.2.A.0.42 and CDA: Generic Trade Latin America (2.3.4) (R800a)
Then next and next and wait for finishing installing the ROM.

THANK YOU!
Thanks a lot!
I'ts now downloading!
I've found this "wotanserver" before, even though in their site said FREE Flashing, every time I clicked, it said I don't have enough credits. But downloading this program worked!
By the way, I choose 3.0.1.A.0.145 Generic Trade Brazil (2.3.3) (R800a)
Once it's done, I think I can upgrade using PC Companion!
Thanks again!

Did you have to buy credits????

Good morning, I tried to use the tool, created a username on the wotan website. but am I still required to get/buy credits to use this?

Yes, you need to buy credits. It was free at that time.

I suggest r800i ftfs if you want to flash roms. R800i .62 lets you flash almost any rom. (unlocked bootloader)

I would download Flashtool if you didn't already have it and use it to root your phone. You can use it to flash ftf files without having to use the PC Companion and it has built in root functionality.

You can't root firmware .62 or above. Either downgrade to .58 or lower, or live without root since you're not planning on unlocking

that's also my trouble and i don't know why!!!!
i tried a lot of ways and didn't work so please help me also -_-.....

It is possible, I suggest Gin2Ics theme for now, but I'm currently modding it to look almost fully like ICS.
Here is a current preview:

If your bootloader is locked, flash .42 with Flashtool, reboot-tick "unknown sources" and "usb debugging", root with Flashtool (unlock icon), boot it and update to .62 using Update Service application.

Copypasta from another thread:
For UNLOCKED bootloaders ONLY:
DOWNLOAD: http://ul.to/tz3hl0yu/Recovery.rar
Steps:
Flash FTF via Flashtool.
Enter recovery with the command: fastboot boot recoveryARC.img
A recovery menu will appear in your phone.
Sets scripts assets: ENABLED
Flash RootXperia.zip via recovery. You have to copy RootXperia.zip to the SD card previously.
Reboot device.

Support dropped by Sony?

Long known fact, that we get no software updates. Nothing new.
But has Sony removed the availability for us to repair the software too now? Or why am I unable to repair my phone via PC Companion, getting this error message?

Repairing/restoring the phone via PC Companion will re-lock the bootloader? If so, does this mean, I will have Bravia Engine/X-Reality working again as I have unlocked bootloader.

Relocking won't bring back your drm keys... So it won't work like that..

PC Companion doesn't relock bootloader.I have relocked it using flashtool.

Raptor is correct, you cannot relock bootloader using PC companion. You can only use Flashtool to relock your bootloader then use PC companion to restore your phone. However, that defeats the purpose since you can restore your phone using Flashtool as well.

no service
I was wondering the same thing. I am on locked bootloader and using uhd rom. I was always able to do repair, but now i get the same message in pc companion. So i think sony must have done something with it. With that attitude i dont think i will buy sony any soon. is it the same with everyone?

Mi max bootloader problem

I have mi max hydrogen i flash AEX 4.6 and i went into recovery but i could not access it so i tried to flash it again but it says my bootloader is locked i unlocked it through developer options but it says bootloader is locked plz help me

It is impossible. I think.
You need to reopen it with official mode.

Sir i m not on miui so i dont have any option to check wether its unlocked or not i m on AEX 4.6 here it says that it is unlocked

Screenshots

Plz plz plz help me :crying:

Ok. OEM Unlocking is not a bootloader unlocker...
If you turn off phone. After you turn on with volume up + power combination, when mi logo appeared release power.
What happened? Recovery? Or other thing...?
小米Max全网通版3GB/64GB银色MIUI9中国开发者8.1.25

Just the mi symbol nothing else

After a few seconds it turns off

which font is that?
Now, you need to explain more clearly and in detail.
You unlocked your bootloader through official Xiaomi method, right?
then flashing anything should not re-lock your bootloader.
First check the status of your bootloader Google it.
let us know that, first.
then if it says unlocked, meaning all is well and the error you saw was because of something else.
FLash Nigel recovery through fastboot and go to it and flash his rom.

You need official method
