Good afternoon.

My z2 tablet (SGP561) is at the latest firmware (23.1.D.0508). I plan to root this device by downgrading to 4.4.2.
This ftf file gave me an error when I tried to flash, Error: loader.sin read/write error. Then, the tablet screen displayed a message saying update failed. I managed to re-flash the latest firmware. Surprisingly, all my settings and files are intact and tablet runs as usual, like never been flashed.
Could someone help me with this one issue?
I am using the latest Flashtool (version 0.9.19.10) with APPS_LOG and USERDATA options checked on Ubuntu 14.04.

Thank you.

Hi there!
What's is the quickest way to root and reflash to Android 6 the SGP561 from Verizon?
I tried the KingRoot 4.6.3(6) and the desktop version acquiring the root, but two apps failed...
