restore your TA backup using the same tool you used to back it up (You did make a TA backup?) If not then use flashtool to relock it

Download PCCopanion, run it, attach phone to computer and click on software update, if it says you have the latest software then click on repair my phon.e

then follow the instructions

Do not attach the phone until it asks you to do it in flashmode


There are 4 answers already, please follow them, I never said to use flashtool to flash 534 FW, I said to use flashtool to relock your bootloader

Repair your phone using pccompanion. If the bootloader is unlocked then it wont work, and it will tell you.
If it is locked then it will work and you will be on a factory shipped latest firmware.
