[TOOL] [UPDATE 04/09/2015] Flashtool version 0.9.19.10 - Windows / Linux / Mac

[munjeni]

Some people are noticing on the Xperia 1 II that immediately after flashing with this setup the phone shows up with 128GB of storage instead of 256GB (I did not notice this, but apparently it can be fixed with Xperia Companion repair). We also notice that the flashing process goes remarkably quickly. Would any of the FlashTool developers be able to look at these issues to see what is going on and if it is a problem?

Thanks

You need to chose right sin for Repartition:0 , e.g. partition-image-LUN0_124936192_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin is for 128 gb or partition-image-LUN0_249896960_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin for 256 gb. If you flashed partition-image-LUN0_249896960_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin and you have 128 gb instead of 256 gb its in most case sony bug.

Yes, well the .fsc file I generated has:

Repartition:0:partition-image-LUN0_249896960_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin

so it is correctly saying to use a 256 GB partition then. Then there must be a bug somewhere else.

You didn't had bug? If no than I'm believing those users who reported bug have flashed 128 version on their 256 device. One thing about 58.0.fsc , I think better idea is having two, one for 128 device and one for 256 device e.g. 58.0.256.fsc & 58.0.128.fsc , I didn't analysed flashtool and can't say if flashtool have implemented autodetection for right partition image and also can't say what will happen if somebody flash their 128 device with 256 partition0, will it brick their device?

No, I didn't have the bug, though I never checked the storage at first. My phone did crash on first boot but after hat it has been running fine without a software repair. When I checked it has the 256Gb storage as expected.

The .fsc and .properties I posted will work only for the XQ-AT51 which is 256GB storage only. Users with the other variants should create their own .fsc and .properties.

I note that the Torrent links for FlashTool at flashtool.net are showing only for version 0.9.26.0 instead of the latest 0.9.28.0. The links for the uploaded.to download for Linux are also broken. Please could you fix.

 

[avetny]

Please, is there the possibility to see the support also for the XQ-AT52 version? thank you

YAAAAS :angel: please

Hi mates:

I've downgrade my cousin's SONY XPERIA X (F5121) to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow from 8.0.0 Oreo to be able to make a backup of the TA partition, but I've a few questions:

I used to the process, a German customized version because is the only one that I've found to this purpose, but We're from Spain, is there any problem with this? I don't know if in these countrys, the frequencies used for 2G/3G/4G are the same or are different, because after the downgrade, the coverage is worse than before using the Oreo stock rom.

Other question, when I used the program, at the WIPE section, I didin't select the PERSIST and NOQ(I don't remember well the name of thist last option), the "problems" with the coverage can be related with this??

Thank you so much for your time and help, regards.

The flash script very likely was created from the USB log of a 128 GB Xperia 1 II device. Doing a factory reset through the phone after it was flashed with FlashTool should fix that (at least that's how it works on the older Xperia X, where the dual SIM variant has 64 GB of storage compared to the 32 GB of the single SIM variant)...

This is not the case. I created the USB log and flash script myself on a 256 GB Xperia 1 II XQ-AT51. I did not notice the issue myself though.

Quick question - how to generate a fsc? I read from someone on another forum who has Xperia 10 (I3113), and can't use FT, because no fsc for his model...
Thanks

Does anyone know of a successful way to update to the latest firmware (I'm using an Xperia 1 II) that is bootloader unlocked & rooted.

Research seems to suggest delete all .TA files aswell as the userdata file and if that works, to flash an extracted/pactched boot.img that I've already prepped. Though some users mention that they then get a decryption error resulting in the need to fully wipe.

If I have to do a clean flash it wouldn't be the end of the world but I would love to avoid the hassle of (even with the usage of Swift Backup etc) and little things like not losing my autobrightness settings which have been learning my usage etc

Recommendation

Good day! Thanks to the developers of this wonderful tool, for the most part it works great. After a lot of testing, I have found 1 recommendation that will help us users.

Sometimes installing custom ROMs makes the FlashTool unable to recognize the device, but the bootloader lock/unlock function works, because you can select the device manually. Please add the same check for flashing. It will be of great help to us, if we can select the device manually.

i cant flash lates firmware for my Xperia 5 (J9210)
Flashtool Latest release (0.9.29.0)



Who can help me ?

First check if your cable is connecting well.
After that see if USB debugging is allowed, unknown sources is allowed and the bootloader is unlocked.

Windows 10 has a lot of problems with the drivers.

Try using 0.9.18.6.

 

[munjeni]

Bootloader NOT need to be unlocked!

The problem comes from the Windows 10 driver signature enforcement. Its recommended to use Linux, an older version of lash tool if possible or to disable Windows 10 driver signature enforcement.

Xperia 5 ii Support?

http://www.flashtool.net/fsccreate.php

Hi, thanks for this tool. I am a new Sony xperia 5 ii owner and noticed xperia 1 ii support was recently added.

Are there plans to add Xperia 5 ii support? I'd create the fsc file per these instructions but my Xperia 5 ii will not repair using the xperia companion app. It's not bricked (Still loads android, only camera and call sound don't work) but I can't for the life of me fix it. Newflasher will not succeed when trying to flash the newest XperiFirm rom.

So I ask, is anyone able to add Xperia 5 ii XQ-AS52 support?

 

[killa92]

Hi, Does anybody have files to support G82XX? I can't seem to download individual files from github and when i download all device data firefox thinks there's a virus for some reason

Ok, So i took the time out to carry out repair function in companion whilst logging USB, I come to parse USB log with correct decrypted location and correct .tms. It has been parsing for over 30 minutes, not yet saw a sign of success. My .tms file is about 1.62GB, Is this a normal size? Having a very tough time with this device, reluctantly tried newflash which doesnt support so happy to come back to flashtool however it seems I am not getting any luck with parse function?
