If your already has the DTV app, you won't lose it... You just flash the .575 kernel, than you run the .bat file to get the recovery and root...
Then you flash the .291 kernel again and you're good to go!!!

This method is good if you're already on the stock .291 firmware!

I sent u a PM

There's no way to put the apk of DTV in the zip before flash it ?
I don't know how stupid is my question.
So be easy...

You can... You have to put the folders of the DTV zip inside the kernel zip. But I think that you need to edit the script and I don't know what to edit to install at the same time....

But you can download both zips, and after you've finished rooting your device you install the DTV zip...

I think it's much easier than adding the DTV files on the root .zip

Hey brothers.

Since our dear Sony Brazil decided to release in our country a Digital TV-capable LTE model and since this model seems to be sold only here, I thought it would be a good idea to create a Brazilian-specific thread so we can discuss any features, details or problems specific to our device.

While the Brazilian Xperia Z2 has just been released in our country (and, therefore, there is still very little information or data available for the D6543), I thought it would be a good idea to present some specs of this device in order to avoid or, at least, reduce the number of questions people (and specially newcomers) might have.

Differences Between Models

Most of the Z2 specs are the same on all models (D6502, D6503 and D6543), such as the same processor (Qualcomm's MSM8974AB), 3 GB of RAM, Adreno 330, 5.2" Full HD IPS screen and so on. The only differences between the models are:


1 - The networks:
D6502: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz

D6503: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz | LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 20)

D6543: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz | LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 - no bands 13, 17 and 20 here, so forget about the 700 MHz 4G/LTE when our government/carriers finally manage to use this frequency, once the analog TV signal is cleared and made available for mobile networks)


2 - The Digital TV receiver
Well, this speaks for itself. Unfortunately, it is still the 1seg standard.

Apart form these two details, there is apparently no other differences from our tupiniquim model and the one sold internationally. The Xperia Z2 White Paper can be found here. There is also a far more technical datasheet on our devices which can be found here.

Despite both devices being different, you CAN flash a D6503 firmware on you D6543. You will lose your DTV app. You can try to restore it through Titanium Backup, but the app will force close (you'll only install the app, but not the necessary system files and whatever is inside the Brazilian firmware's Kernel, so it absolutely will not work at all). If you don't care about DTV, you can use a D6503 without any problems or worries at all.


3 - Rooting, custom recoveries, bootloader unlocking, etc.

At this moment I can only say what I have experienced so far, and, with that regard, I can confirm to you all that you can do pretty much anything you want in that matter as if it was a international 4G/LTE Z2 (D6503).

Rooting tools (at least for the .314 firmware) work as they should (I've used this one in both my Z2 and my Z2 tablet, but there is also this one that should work too - these are the only ones I'm aware of). TA Backup tool also works as it should.

For custom recoveries, I've only tried [NUT]'s XZDualRecovery (v.2.7.154) and it works like it should. Haven't ran into any problems yet.

You should be able to unlock your bootloader just like any other Sony device, but I'm honestly unable to confirm it 100% since I haven't (nor do I intend to) unlock mine.

Previous Firmwares

Generic BR | Customization Version: 1281-5466_R5C | Firmware version: 23.1.A.0.690 | FTF File: Link (1.37 GB)

Here is the pre-rooted flashable.zip file with the 23.1.A.0.690 Generic BR firmware. It was created using PRFCreator v0.8, the FTF above, SuperSU v2.46 and XZDualRecovery v2.8.8. You WILL NOT need the original FTF file posted above since I included everything in the flashable zip file, just flash it with a recovery of your choice (I use TWRP) and you are done. I've tested this on my device and it works perfectly, no issues so far. Since this new Lollipop firmware is very much different from the stock JellyBean and KitKat firmwares, it is highly recommended you do a factory reset before flashing this. Use it at your own discretion - it worked perfectly on my device and it should work just fine on yours, but don't blame me if it goes thermonuclear.

(*) I have deleted these files from my Google Drive account in order to clear up space for future updates.

There is also a folder on Mega with some FTF files, in case someone needs an alternate download link (courtesy of MarcSant).

Notes
This works on ANY Xperia Z2 (D6543).
Your Xperia Z2 does NOT have to be rooted.
Your Xperia Z2 does NOT have to be bootloader unlocked.
This does NOT re-lock a SIM unlocked phone (unlocking is ONCE and PERMANENT).
This does NOT unlock your bootloader.
(Thank you @Apollo89 for coming up with this 4 lines on your Xperia ZQ firmware thread - I think they'll help reduce any doubts newcomers might have)


Since this is an international forum, I'd like to remind my fellow countrymen that we have to post things in English here, as per Forum Rules. But we can also post things in PT-BR, as long as we post it in English first.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Moderators - I understand that there is a policy of avoiding country-specific threads for the sake of keeping things simple and direct, but I'd like to ask you guys to open an exception and keep an opened mind in this case since the Z2 model sold in Brazil (D6543) is available only in here and that may raise some problems very much specific to our device that may not receive the proper attention of the general modding community (such as finding a proper FTF file for our model, issues with the DTV, apps or the available LTE bands on this model, baseband issues and so on). Since this device has just been released here and it is a top-of-the-line device (which means it is very expensive in our country) it has not received any support as of today in Brazilian forums yet, so people may be coming here with a lot of doubts regarding this specific device.

If you guys believe a thread such as this is not important, feel free to close or delete it.

This link is dead: "Generic BR - 17.1.2.A.0.314 Revision R6A: Link (1.04 GB - thank you @BeetoCarvalho for this link)"

I think it's much easier than adding the DTV files on the root .zip

So I think, MAYBE, this solution gonna works....

Can anyone tell me if I can flash the stock rom of D6503 in my D6543? I've unlocked the bootloader following the sony procedure. When I opened Emma, it didn't show the stock ROM of my D6543 device. How can I flash the stock D6543 ROM without carriers like VIVO, CLARO, TIM and OI?

If not mistaken you can I installed Brazilian version on the Japanese Xperia, worked great.
You can install flashtool on your Windows and lunch Xperia Firm with in it search for your phone model and choose the which version and then country region you want..

It's really easy.
Any Q just ask.

Thank you! It worked. Although one problem persists.
When I make a call, the display go black and I can't make it show again, not even pressing the power button. Any thoughts?

Hi Nbhs, I´ve tried some customs ROM´s on my D6543 but the mobile network didn´t worked. Only wifi was working. Did you teste the ExistenZ 3.5 on the D6543? Did the mobile network worked? Did you tested another´s custom ROM´s on D6543?

Thanks

Boa noite!
Ganhei um z2 d6543 e rede móvel não funciona, só em alguns pontos da cidade aparece algum sinal, mas é só tentar fazer ligação que o sinal some. Sou totalmente leigo no assunto e já peço desculpas pela minha ignorância, mas preciso urgentemente de ajuda, pois estou lendo os posts e artigos do XDA e não estou conseguindo entender ainda.
Voce ou alguem do grupo pode me ajudar, quero muito ter a rede móvel no meu aparelho.
Outra coisa, as vezes o sinal de wifi fica bem fraco, mesmo estando perto do roteador e a camera as vezes da um aviso que o aparelho está esquentado e se continuar a subir, o aparelho desligará.

Me ajudem, por favor.

Hey guy, as this is a international forum, you should keep the discussion in english, ok? :D

You should download Flashtool and flash the latest firmware with it, to see if it helps. If not, then the problem is with your carrier.

As for WiFi: that's a "issue" some people have. I neve had it when I used stock ROM, but there's a "fix" somewhere here in XDA.

As for camera warning: that's a normal warning. Due to high temperatures the device can reach while recording (especially in 4K), the device sometimes may shut itself down to preserve internal components. That's a normal behavior, it's just to protect your phone. And you don't need to worry, if it happens you recording will be saved :D

If you have some trouble understanding infos here, try Google Translate just to understand the base of everything. In a few weeks you should be able to understand most part of things here. :D

Sorry man, I did not pay attention to this .... rsrsr
But then, I downloaded Flashtool, I did the whole procedure with it, I did douwngrade and I went back to the current one and nothing, I have two chips, one of live and one of hi and anyway it does not give a signal, the chips are nano chips but with adapter for micro chip, I do not know if there has to be. At some points in the city you get a small signal, very lucky to make a call or receive, but then you lose the signal again.
In a Brazilian site, I do not remember which one, I read a post from a person saying that her android was 4.4.4 and when she updated to 5.0.1, I think that's it, she lost the network signal and had to send her to the assistance, but hers was still under warranty, and did not post any more informing whether it worked or not.
In another forum, the person said that he switched the antenna and went back to work.
In another forum, the person said that he did a procedure that she found here in the XDA and it worked better than it was before, I sent a message to her to give me the link where the conversation was from and until today the person did not answer me .
I'm looking for a week here in the XDA forum but I can not find it and so I decided to ask for help now.
Thanks for the help, man.

    Hey brothers.

    Since our dear Sony Brazil decided to release in our country a Digital TV-capable LTE model and since this model seems to be sold only here, I thought it would be a good idea to create a Brazilian-specific thread so we can discuss any features, details or problems specific to our device.

    While the Brazilian Xperia Z2 has just been released in our country (and, therefore, there is still very little information or data available for the D6543), I thought it would be a good idea to present some specs of this device in order to avoid or, at least, reduce the number of questions people (and specially newcomers) might have.

    Differences Between Models

    Most of the Z2 specs are the same on all models (D6502, D6503 and D6543), such as the same processor (Qualcomm's MSM8974AB), 3 GB of RAM, Adreno 330, 5.2" Full HD IPS screen and so on. The only differences between the models are:


    1 - The networks:
    D6502: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz

    D6503: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz | LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 20)

    D6543: UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz | GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz | LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 - no bands 13, 17 and 20 here, so forget about the 700 MHz 4G/LTE when our government/carriers finally manage to use this frequency, once the analog TV signal is cleared and made available for mobile networks)


    2 - The Digital TV receiver
    Well, this speaks for itself. Unfortunately, it is still the 1seg standard.

    Apart form these two details, there is apparently no other differences from our tupiniquim model and the one sold internationally. The Xperia Z2 White Paper can be found here. There is also a far more technical datasheet on our devices which can be found here.

If you don't care about DTV, you can use a D6503 without any problems or worries at all.


    3 - Rooting, custom recoveries, bootloader unlocking, etc.

    At this moment I can only say what I have experienced so far, and, with that regard, I can confirm to you all that you can do pretty much anything you want in that matter as if it was a international 4G/LTE Z2 (D6503).

    Rooting tools (at least for the .314 firmware) work as they should (I've used this one in both my Z2 and my Z2 tablet, but there is also this one that should work too - these are the only ones I'm aware of). TA Backup tool also works as it should.

    For custom recoveries, I've only tried [NUT]'s XZDualRecovery (v.2.7.154) and it works like it should. Haven't ran into any problems yet.

    You should be able to unlock your bootloader just like any other Sony device, but I'm honestly unable to confirm it 100% since I haven't (nor do I intend to) unlock mine.

    Moderators - I understand that there is a policy of avoiding country-specific threads for the sake of keeping things simple and direct, but I'd like to ask you guys to open an exception and keep an opened mind in this case since the Z2 model sold in Brazil (D6543) is available only in here and that may raise some problems very much specific to our device that may not receive the proper attention of the general modding community (such as finding a proper FTF file for our model, issues with the DTV, apps or the available LTE bands on this model, baseband issues and so on). Since this device has just been released here and it is a top-of-the-line device (which means it is very expensive in our country) it has not received any support as of today in Brazilian forums yet, so people may be coming here with a lot of doubts regarding this specific device.

    If you guys believe a thread such as this is not important, feel free to close or delete it.

    Xposed

    Nice to hear that buddy :Do
    @thread

    The German 314 is working well, but I noticed something. I tried to update walkman and album, but update Centre did not worked, it says that I already have the latest versions. Is anyone experiencing the same?

    @TicoVillas, what do you exactly uses on xposed? I'd like to use it too, but I did some wrong things on my gs4 in the past haha.
    Cheers

    Sup Geiger;

    I use a good amout of modules, Tinted status bar been one of the best ones and UDN (Hide navbar) that is awesome since i have full screen without losing the navbar functionality.

    Look at the screenshots, that's the ones i have, and for me was very easy to install, just download from the apk Xposed repository and install, the phone need to be rooted but the bootloader can be locked or unlocked after that inside the app you need to install the framework and just then you can use the modules, every time that you install a new module you need to activate and reboot (soft reboot do the job);

    If you need some more help just ask away, and if you want more information on any specific module too.

    Ps. German .314 is workin smooth and with working LTE/4G

    Cheers everyone;

    Hi Tiu Fiu,

    Can I install this pre-rooted Lollipop version over my rooted KitKat, using recovery? My data will keep untouched, right?
    Thanks for your hard work.

    Ricardo

    Hey Ricardo,

    Yes, you can flash the pre-rooted version over your rooted KitKat using recovery (I used TWRP and it went OK).

    I advice you to choose the factory reset wipe of TWRP to do a fresh install (this Lollipop firmware is WAY different than the previous JellyBean and KitKat firmwares, so this will reduce the chances of having anything messed up with the new firmware). This factory reset WILL NOT delete your files in the internal SD card, but you should do a backup just in case. You won't even need to flash anything with Flashtools afterwards since I used the full-bundle function of PRFCreator v0.8. And to keep you guys informed, I used both SuperSU v2.46 (the latest stable version available) and XZDualRecovery v2.8.8.

    As soon as the upload is complete I'll update the OP and include the link to flashable zip file (around 15% or so to go).

    EDIT: Upload complete, check the OP for the link.

    @Rick Poldo or anyone else. Please quit spamming the thread with a countdown of how many days have passed since you feel you should have an update. Everyone has a calendar and I'm sure they know how to read it.

    Thread cleaned.
