try here, seems that it needs to create an account
For the little that i searched you can use the lt28i firmware , the hardware difference between them is the lte radio lte.

Anyone make an FTF yet? I just flashed to the GB Rogers version but didn't get any updates available when I checked.

I wouldn't bother with the rogers firmware due to all the bloatware. I installed the Rogers GB firmware following the rooting process and used the International version instead and everything works fine!

I don't want to use it but some people might want an FTF of the stock firmware for backup purposes.

True, but we'll probably get the lte symbol back with the Rogers. You can always De-bloat the fw.

Hi, I am new to Android and rooting and had a couple questions. I will be getting the Xperia Play R800x soon. If you get the bootloader unlocked from SE, do you still need to root the device? I have been trying to get everything ready for when I get the phone. I have Android SDK and Flashtool installed. If I want to get the NXT Light Edition Rom, do I need a custom kernel as well? Thanks.

If you get your bootloader unlocked and flash a custom kernel/ROM no you dont need to root as nearly all, if not all come with root. Seen as you have flashtool and everything else use a custom kernel. If you want to return to stock then just reflash a ftf file for r800x , make sure you dont flash a ftf for r800i though. I dont have the link handy but there is a thread here with all ftf files. Just search in XdA

Just a heads up.... The NXT light rom is gsm... It won't work on the r800x
Sent from my R800x
Thank you Wedgess and Lordomn. Since the NXT light is for the GSM version, would you recommend the COLA rom, or maybe SlimBean or CM9?

Think CosmicDans MIUI for ICS is for cdma. Id say its probably one of the best performance wise for ICS. You could also check out my PACMan ROM gor JB i uploaded a cdma version which works fine touchpads are also supported, camera/video ect works. Also instead of saying thanks click the thanks button instead

slim bean performs very well also.
As the title says, attached are the links to download the 10.3.1.A.0.244 Commercial/Journalists (1270-4005) firmware for the C6506. This contains the same baseband needed for the AT&T LTE, not sure about others. From my observations, the firmware is identical to the US Generic, nothing more...nothing less.
If you want to use it to flash other C6506 variants (e.g. Canada, Mexico, etc...), you should be able to flash everything except the baseband and that will maintain your original baseband. Alternatively, you can flash the original baseband afterwards if the included baseband doesn't support your carrier. Just make sure you have a stock FTF of your firmware before you decide to go this route.
I was also able to successfully root it via DoomLord's latest thread. It will require the kernel from the previous C6505 10.3.A.0.423 stock firmware (C6506 ONLY). Customization doesn't matter, as long as it's for the C6506 and Android 4.2.2 so the kernels match. If not, you'll get into a bootloop.
Upon successful initial boot, it will ask you to download Data/MMS settings. Just as well, it will default to WCDMA connection type, so just go under Settings>Networks(more)>Mobile Networks>Network Mode and select LTE.
It is always HIGHLY ADVISABLE that you keep a stock FTF of your firmware before flashing any other stock FTF that changes your customization, so you can easily go back to your original customization or repair the phone in case something goes wrong. You can learn more about this here.

You'll need 7-Zip or any extractor that can handle 7Z formats.
So whats different on this compared to other stock images? Just curious

Would this work for my locked canada C6506 ?
I noticed zero differences between this and US Generic. Software is dead on identical in every way. The only reason I flashed this is because Sony hasn't released the 10.3.1.A.0.244 for the C6505 US Generic...and I, and others I'm sure, are highly impatient to wait
It should work, just make sure you have an FTF of your current stock ROM in case you need to flash the baseband from it. Like I said, I don't know for certain whether the baseband from this ROM supports the LTE bands of your carrier or not. For me, AT&T was supported the same way the US Generic did.

Can this rom work on locked bootloader?
Absolutely. Flashing stock FTFs don't require an unlocked bootloader, only custom ROMS do. So you should be good to go.

Thanks! How is the rom so far? BTW I'm on T-Mobile USA
The update is awesome, the phone is pretty much flawless now.
BTW...Sony just released the update for the US Generic (just now)...so you might want to check for the the OTA or use PC Companion. In other words, you don't need to flash the ROM in this thread.

Urgent help for Xperia ZL (6505) 4.1
Guys - I just got a Xperia ZL (c6506) and unlocked it from Claro. The problem is that Claro has put so much of bloatware on the phone plus there is still for update on 4.1 JB.
Can I flash a stock ROM (4.3) on my current phone to get rid of the bloatware and run 4.3 ? I am still on baseband 10.1.1.A.1.253 and bootloader is locked.
I understand this is a pretty novice request but please help as I am getting confused with the multiple info being provided.
Can you give me A link of c6506 baseband or ftf that LTE supported ? Because it has dead link .

Do it manually, download the .ftf, use Flashtool and flash the ROM. If your phone is not rooted, then root it.

you can update to JB via flashtool (unofficial) method.
see this threads:
1. flashing instructions
2. software download links
With the ATT devices I highly suggest you use the Rogers .211 ftf. After that try ExistenZ.
This works
I recently bought an LT28AT off ebay. I was dismayed when I started reading about the bootloader, the lack of JB for the ATT crowd...
So I decided to take a gamble and flash the Rogers file [Sony Xperia Ion (LT28i)_6.2.B.0.211_Rogers (Canada).ftf].
I can confirm that if you follow the instructions (I used the Linux version), you CAN use the Rogers JB flavor for the LT28i on this phone.
MAJOR CAVEAT: YOU MUST EXCLUDE BASEBAND WHEN FLASHING TO THE ROGERS ROM WITH AN AT&T PHONE. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, YOU CAN'T MAKE CALLS.
I have attached an image that shows where the option is. TICK THAT DAYUM BOX.I didn't the first time, and inadvertently flashed the wrong baseband. Calls sounded like my phone was at the bottom of a swimming pool. I remedied that by flashing back to AT&T ICS, then flashing back to Rogers, this time wisely skipping baseband.
I haven't fully tested it, but it is FAR better than the ICS version that I updated it to using Sony companion.
So for those wondering, if you have an LT28AT, and you want to use Jellybean, I can confirm it works. The other fine posters above will direct you to how.
Now to experiment further...
Hi guys, I'm looking for latest gb firmware for the Arc S Lt18i 4.0.2.A.0.62. I found out many threads/links but none of those is working, all are offline.

Thanks buddy for your links. The one you sent to me is generic India firmware, yesterday i found out Generic World UK version from this site:
http://forumobileservice.blogspot.it/2013/08/sony-official-firmware.html
Are there so many differences between each countries releases?Is there a global version?
Thanks
I think the differences between them are extra apps included and languages. Main parts are same.
If you flash ftf file with Flashtool, there is an option "Exclude TA" to swipe "simlock.ta" in firmware, then you can use normaly.

Ok clear, thanks Just last question, Do you suggest to update to stock ICS instead of stock GB? Is GB overall better than ICS?I heard that stock ics is little worse (laggier)..
Thanks
Yes, stock GB is smoother than stock ICS. But it miss alot of features, and some new apps dont support GB, e.g: new Gmail app. I have a backup android phone run GB, the last time I check, gmail app is really suck and ugly :silly:
Flash GB if you need performance.
But for something new and fast, you should try custom roms based on Kitkat.

If you request rooted device, i suggest flashing 0.42, doing root and then OTA update to 0.62. Flashed 0.62 cannot be rooted.
