Not on Sony's public servers yet.

Links added to the OP.

First of all, remove the quote of the first post from your reply. Second, R1/R1 Plus firmware are not missing, they just don't exist on Sony's public servers.

I'm not able to reproduce that... what specific firmware? Also try disabling your anti-virus, it might be interfering.

You might wanna be more specific on what you're trying to unpack.

v5.5.0 [October 11, 2020]: - NEW: Code refactored to adapt to new API that doesn't use CDAs and firmware revisions (i.e. R1A), which is used for Xperia 5 II and later. - NEW: Available firmware versions are loaded along with the customizations (formerly CDFs) list. NOTES: * Due to heavy code...

Nothing interesting to see there, basically CDAs have been phased out, they are no longer used starting with Xperia 5 II. So had to refactor a significant portion of the code to adapt, it's already in a working state. Will see if I can get OTA updates compatible with the new structure, then test...

Sadly, Sony has introduced structural changes to their API starting with Xperia 5 II. XperiFirm will have to be updated once I study the API.

No...

Why wouldn't it unpack? Did you disable automatic unpacking in settings? Like I said, I don't know what you can flash and what you cannot. You can merge them manually if you know what you're doing.

No idea. I don't know much about Xperia flashing anymore. As for the update.xml, it's automatically merged to one update.xml by XperiFirm when unpacking.

If it's not in the program then it's not available. It's quite obvious.

Both attachments are fine. Not sure what the problem on your side is. Don't use hotlinks, download using the attachment link.

Huh? The latest ROM version for C6603 is 10.7.A.0.228 (for both Customized NCB and Telenor SE). I already told you, the generic ROM for your region is Customized NCB, I'm not even sure what you mean by "according to xperifirm the telenor one is much more up to date", when both versions as they...

What "z"? Xperia Z? The one from 2013? There are no updates for it... No, Telenor SE is not a generic ROM. Generic ROMs for Sweden (and other Nordic countries are called Customized NCB/NOBA (Nordic Combined).

I don't have any ported Sony Email app...

There's nothing to "redo". The firmware are downloaded directly from Sony servers, not any third-party storage.

It will work as a system app though. If you prefer to install it as a normal APK, this is only possible by resigning the app with a test key. (not secure) You can now find such APK in my Google Drive folder...

I have no issues with using Photo editor 8.5.A.0.1 on my Xiaomi Mi 8 (with added com.sony.device.jar of course). https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-mobile-communications/photo-editor/photo-editor-8-5-a-0-1-release/

No. Just added checks for a Xperia-specific class for media store, so that it skips certain Xperia-dependent database queries for non-Xperia ROMs, but would still work as if nothing was changed on an Xperia ROM, and tweaked queries that are not supported on Android 10. Very few changes, really...

OK, cool. Here are 2 APKs: Album_9.8.A.0.8.apk - To be installed as a normal APK. The AndroidManifest was edited to allow it to be installed on devices without com.sony.device.jar, hence It had to be resigned with a test key. (less secure) Album_9.8.A.0.8_ROM.apk - To be used as-is on custom...

You used the APK I posted?...

So what's the problem?

From what I understood using Google Translate, his question was how to repack everything back to a SIN file.

Don't know... there should be more region-specific APNs included, but that's if you compare UK to a firmware of another region.

Yeah, "Customized" should be with minimal bloat compared to branded ones.

Firmware for Xperia 1 II (XQ-AT51) are now available, including one for "O2 Pay monthly UK".

You can't. SIN files are signed with an official private signature.

Some firmware for Xperia 1 II (XQ-AT52) are now available.

Whenever it's available, I'll add it. No point in asking. I don't have a crystal ball.

SOV43, yes. Other variants for Xperia 1 II, not yet.

I never said XperiFirm had anything to do with Emma, which is only useful for unlocked devices. XperiFirm matches perfectly the officially available firmware on Sony Mobile's public server, which is the server used for Xperia Companion. Xperia Companion and Emma don't use the same servers. Emma...

Ah yes, that's because you're using a Sony device. The APK was patched for non-Sony devices in mind only.

Sigh... this has nothing to do with Album force-closing... I said that you "can install about any Sony app there is (even though not guaranteed to work correctly)." Without com.sony.device.jar you won't be even able to install an app that's intended for Xperia devices, without patching...

Indeed, using "Open Inside #" is a nice method, added to OP.

Ah yes, forgot I was using com.sony.device.jar on my Xiaomi device. Anyways, people don't really need APKs with patched AndroidManifest.xml. All they need is system/framework/com.sony.device.jar and system/etc/permissions/com.sony.device.xml flashed to any device, and they can install about any...

I managed to skip some queries, that got Album working on non-Xperia ROMs. That being said, animations look broken on Android 10.

No, and that solution won't be enough in the case of the latest APKs. There are some issues that I'm not sure why they happen or how to resolve them, related to database queries. Example: IllegalArgumentException: Invalid column '1000' AS somc_content_type_id This error happens on Android 10...

Sadly, never seen anything but a Linux variant for lpunpack. Don't know about WSL, never used it. Only tested on actual Linux and everything worked as intended.

Indeed, that chunk type was not expected, but now we have super.img integrated as required by Google, and so... v1.13 [May 20, 2020]: - Added support for super.sin images. (Note: those have to be further unpacked using lpunpack into system_a/b.img, product_a/b.img and vendor_a/b.img) - Added...

Xperia L4 (PDX-202) is up on XperiFirm. No news regarding Xperia 1 II yet.

I check daily, these devices are not on the server yet :(

Some CDA's have full .107 firmware, some have the full .49 and the .107 comes as an OTA update only, at least for now. If something changes, means Sony changed it, as it loads the CDA and firmware lists in real-time. Yeah, although I'm not aware of any public way to flash these yet...

Yep, another tool I made a while ago, you could see it in my signature... Your box sticker doesn't specify your CDA... it specifies a SI (Sales Item), which looks the same, but it's not. Should have read the FAQ...

Leave the unpacking enabled. The file should be named something like "boot_X-FLASH-ALL-A2CD.sin", at least for Xperia 5. Not sure which device you're talking about.

Yes, the CDA lists are complete, they are loaded in real-time directly from Sony's servers. The only thing I have to add manually are new devices/models, along with their thumbnails. Sadly, that's not possible. Those Walkman players are nowhere to be found on their public firmware servers...

As default for what?...

Nope, no idea who's the idiot that made it, but he for sure did not ask for my permission. The only "official" place for XperiFirm is this thread.

Attachment link works fine here...

It's a .NET Framework app, it's not CPU dependent. It's up to your .NET runtime to match your platform.
