[INFO] Z1 Compact firmware customizations (region/branding)

zxz0O0 · Aug 4, 2014

The customization number can be useful to correctly specify the branding when making FTF files with Flashtool, to identify FTF files if the branding has not been (correctly) specified by the uploader and to download a different firmware customization with Sony PC Companion.

The list is sorted by customization number. Look up customization numbers or country easily by pressing Ctrl-F (Windows/Linux) or Command-F (Mac).

Branding: carrier name or "Generic" for unbranded devices, followed by the ISO code of the country. Enter this into the "Branding" field when creating an FTF file with Flashtool.

Cust. no.: customization number, can be found in your service menu (dial *#*#7378423#*#* > 'Service info' > 'Software info' > 'Customization Version'). Will change if you flash a different customization.

SI number: Sales Item, can be found on your box and perhaps on your receipt, but not on your phone. There are multiple SI numbers with the same customization, because every color has its own SI number.

Thanks Apollo89 for the info and pcpepik for the image

Thanks for this thread. How do I find my region ? Is there somewhere in the software or do I just say where I bought it . I ask because you can buy a phone in France and it might be from UK because the store imports from there.

On the box, next to SI number, there are listed all countries, where your particular phone is officially distributed

I can find no country name in software info. Could you be more specific?

pcpepik · Apr 21, 2014

I said on the BOX /)_<), you will not find any of these informations anywhere in the SW (except for customization number, which is only stated in the SW - see OP)

PS: If your phone was purchased from telecommunications provider, please, state from which one (e.g. "Branding: O2") (as "region" then simply state country, where you purchased it)

some firmware that i can use to upgrade to 4.4 without losing locked bootloader? thanks .

pcpepik · Apr 21, 2014

@Ravt88: Simply connect your phone to PC Companion, it should inform you that there is new update available and ask if you want to update

(or, you can flash any *.ftf with FW for Z1 Compact, it will not unlock your bootloader - you can find some here)
