Install recovery, busybox, custom kernels. Many other features have been built-in so that Flashtool can also be used to (as far as the phone is recognized by Flashtool) : I invite you to visit the FXP Project that brings CM to xperia devices. This process gives you the opportunity to flash custom roms such as CyanogenMod ROMs. This said, many rooting scenarios are available implying kernel only downgrade to retrieve a patched rooting exploit and then flash back the right kernel. Using flashtool, you can choose what to flash and what not to flash. Using official sony tools, you can only upgrade. 
Once bootloader unlocked, official sony tools do not work anymore. What is only mandatory for flashing is to own the FTF file according to the device you want to flash it on. The flashing feature as well as bootloader unlock feature are available whatever the phone is recognized or not by the application. Then I took the lead and got some advice and help from him occasionally on some features like rom cleaner or bootloader unlocking.įrom time to time, sin files have been bundled into what is now well known FTF (Flash Tool Firmwares) and more features have been implemented.īut flashing firmwares is still the core of Flashtool (that is updated at least to follow Sony improvements around sin files) and the reason of its name.įlashtool can also easily unlock the bootloader of the phone using the BLU icon as far as the bootloader of your phone is unlockable 
We worked together to add more features to the tool such as rooting methods implementation or TA backup / restore This program was originally made to flash sin files downloaded by SEUS or PCC.īased on a command line tool written by Bin4ry (Andreas Makris), I brought a user interface to sin files flashing. They all use the S1 protocol for flashing firmwares.
Flashtool is a S1 flashing software that works for all Sony phones from X10 to Xperia Z Ultra.
