Hi,
I have Sony Xperia Z1f SO-02F (Docomo Japan Version).
Can you guys please help me how to root this and I also want to use custom stock ROM of US or UK (the international z1 compact).
I haven't tried rooting any phone before, so I have no idea what to do.
I just have this issue with its docomo software, I wanted to remove those apps that drains the battery as well as the RAM.
Also the annoying R = Roaming mode.
Thanks guys, good day!
Read through this thread Root xperia z1f. The information found in this thread should help you.

Hi, iam new to all this but can some one please help me whith unlocking and rooting my sony arc lt15a. I live in australia the phone is not locked to any carrier i bought it from the usa becuase it had the umts 850 frequencie for the telstra carrier here. My reasons for unlocking are to get rid of all the sony things and some preinstalled apps and have access to other things. If you put generic software on there what are the differences also can you tell me will any thing be diiferent to not rooting. Thank you.

Hi all
I hope I've posted this in the right place.
I have a stock French Arc S that I'd like to be flashed to a stock UK model - at the moment, although my phone is in English, a few of the icons are still in French and I also have some France-specific apps.
Can anyone tell me the simplest way to flash the phone? Do I need to root, etc.? I used to have a HTC Sensation, and rooted and custom rom'ed that, so I'm not a complete dunce.
It's possible I might flash a custom rom in the future, but my experience with the Sensation wasn't too hot. I basically would flash to custom to remove Facebook, Twitter etc. integration as I have no need nor interest. But stock UK (generic or O2) is better than stock French for me!
Thank you very much in advance,
schnide
Is your bootloader locked? If the answer is yes, you may have two safe options: (i) flash the UK's FTF file to your phone using FlashTool, and (ii) flash the stock UK FW using WotanServer.
For (i), you need the tool below. I don't have such FTF, so you'll need to search a little. Don't post another thread, SEARCH.
[TOOL/LT15] [UPDATE 15/01/2012] Flashtool version 0.6.7.0 - Windows / Linux

[EDIT] 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware for Xperia Arc S

Just found a FTF. Not UK but a FTF though. As I said, search.
For (ii), see WotanServer's website:

well why don't you need french version .
If it's just about the junk apps that comes preloaded with your phone .
Just root your phone and start deleting theme easily .
you don't need to flash a new ROM .

Hello experts!
I really need everyone's help, I did update my xperia arc s to ics, except that my smartphone was full of problems so I need a lot of his original rom. I'm from Brazil, I need rom lt18a 4.0.1.a.0.266 Brazil. Please help me, I'm desperate, I can not stand the lags and bugs from my mobile
www.google.com
I've googled and found nothing, actually, I thought, that was only for lt18i, except that this does not suit me. I need Lt18a due to my carrier. Please, if someone help me
Did you find something? I'm searching for this too, but found nothing...
EDIT: Solved the problem with an ICS LT15a Baseband. Works great with my carrier (Claro).
Hi, I just bought my Z1 Compact (and i'm loving it) from a Carrier in Chile named Movistar but I want to flash a ROM that will
Not have the carrier's animation on startup
Let me use Android Kitkat 4.4.4
Not give me compatibility issues with my phone's network
Is there any place where I can find the latest unbranded International ROM for my Z1 Compact so that its up to date, won't mess up the phone, and will let me loose the carrier animation?
Thank you !!! =)
There are tons of links to unbranded FTFs in the general forum.

14.4.A.0.108 is Android 4.4.4.
hi, guys
i bought z1 compact docomo
Android version 4.4.2
Model SO-02F
Version number 14.3.B.0.310
its used, i live in east europe, and its working fine except cant connect to my mobile internet, wifi is working properly, i can call, receive sms and so on...
Im pretty sure that i configured my APN properly checked that like 10 times, still not working.
So i thought, its not working because docomo preinstalled soft is blocking that.
So i think i need to flash my rom to not docomo, to some generic to make mobile internet work, what do you think guys? Should flashing my rom would help?
Can you guys help me, im kind noobish about all this flashing rom thing and i would need a step by step manual/tutorial.
Thank you very much.
p.s. sorry for bad english, not my first language
