I had this issue with my ZL after flashing a rom other than what came on it but going back to stock seemed to not fix it much.

This is the first time I am posting in this Xperia forum.....
I have a Videotron ZL C6506, awaiting the (sim)unlock code, then root.
Can I flash the 4.1.2 - 10.1.A.1.395 - Generic US 1270-7584 R8A instead?
Is this a plain rom without any bloatware?

I'd also like to know. There isn't any mention in any thread I've found that the generic/factory ROMs are bloatware-free or not.
ofcourse its not bloatware free.. its STOCK SONY FW for global versions etc.. but varies on carrier FW`s that have there own apps on it.. flash to stock for selling purposes or to unroot,nor claiming your warranty.. the only advantage is u can flash LTE FW to non LTE FW same model..

I'm sorry, I generally equate "generic" with "nothing added," as did at least one other forum member. Thank you for the clarification.
