XperiFirm...
Allows you to download the current firmware for all Sony/Sony-Ericsson Xperia-line smartphones, tablets and accessories running Android (except really old ones)
INSTRUCTIONS & REQUIREMENTS:
Microsoft Windows:
v5.3.7 [July 28, 2018]:
- FIX: Workaround for broken version naming for certain Xperia XZ2 firmware.
v5.3.6 [March 2, 2018]:
- FIX: Fixed a reported cosmetic bug.
- NOTE: This is the last update for the near future, unless some serious bug is encountered.
v5.3.5 [March 1, 2018]:
- FIX: Unpacking is matching that of Flashtool: the "partition.zip" is being extracted and a "partition_delivery.xml" is being properly created.
v5.3.1-v5.3.3 [March 1, 2018]:
- FIX: Bug and regression fixing for 5.3.0.
v5.3.0 [March 1, 2018]:
- NEW: Supports downloading official OTA packages (*.pkg). This can be enabled/disabled through "Settings". Those are single-file packages, thus Resuming is not supported, but you can still download them manually if you have to.
- FIX: A bunch of internal tweaks.
- MINOR: Larger device images.
- MINOR: Instructions for Manual downloading slightly changed: Folders should be named "FILE_<fileid>" instead of just "<fileid>".
v5.2.0 [October 21, 2017]:
- NEW: Manual mode is back, completely reworked for Sony's new API. Just click "Manual" and follow the instructions. No file renaming is required.
v5.1.0 [October 16, 2017]:
- NEW: CDF lists are now loaded directly from Sony servers. Manual updating is no longer needed, except for adding new devices, which is a rare case anyway.
- MINOR: Fixed support for Windows XP, but may be unstable as it uses a normal HTTP connection rather than a secure one.
- MINOR: Settings: "Unpack firmware automatically" checkbox - due to the demand.
v5.0.0 [May 16, 2016]:
- NEW: Download management, including a download queue that's saved on your computer and loaded on launch.
- NEW: Resuming feature, including checksum verification and automatic re-download of incomplete/corrupted chunks. Just click "Start" and the download will attempt to resume (for large firmware, the resuming might take a while).
- MINOR: Better error handling and prevention.
- MINOR: Settings: "Play a sound when a download completes"
- NOTE: "Manual" button and "Unpack automatically" are both obsolete, thus were removed in this version. Firmware will always be unpacked.
