v5.1.0 [October 16, 2017]:

- MINOR: Fixed support for Windows XP, but it can be unstable as it is a normal HTTP connection rather than a secure one.
- MINOR: Settings: "Unpack firmware automatically" checkbox - due to the demand.

- NEW: You can now set a default download folder in XperiFirm's Settings panel.
If you’re trying to make it, then you’re not sure what you’re looking for. Moreover, the resources (icons) are no longer preloaded from Sony (there is nothing left to preload there), thus launching XperiFirm is now faster.

v4.8.2 [January 13, 2016]:

However, it was made to support that specific case. Same issue applies to Xperia E and Xperia tipo. (Version 4.8.1 will still work normally, except for Xperia M, Xperia E and Xperia tipo.)

CHANGELOG:
v2.0 [August 3, 2014]:
- FIXED: XperiFirm will now use Java 64-bit in Windows 64-bit.
- NEW: Quickly check "Check All". (Totally kills Xperia Updatechecker, sorry)
- NEW: You can use the Java Runtime Environment bundled with Flashtool, by copying XperiFirm.exe & XperiFirm.jar to Flashtool's folder. [Flashtool + XperiFirm = Perfection]

Strange, but my SID is not in the program (however, there is Ukrainian firmware ..
It comes out, if I decide to quit the kitkat and return to the off-runoff, then I can just download the firmware from this program, convert it to a flash drive, lock the boot on the phone and calmly flash the same flash drive?

[Nound]

d1.mas,Yes, that's right, only it is not necessary to lock the boot, since you will sew along the cable and not through the air.

- FIXED: XperiFirm crash when downloader is downloaded while downloading a firmware.

[d1.mas]

since version 2.3, avas swears at a suspicious file, although the ekzeshnik is clean on the virus-top as you yourself know that the baby has marked the file as a false alarm, I hope they will react

[intro555]

I think it is important to add to the header that it is possible and not to put bulky Java.
It is enough to copy the program to the folder with Flashtool (without which there is still no way) - it will use its environment.

If you have Flashtool installed, Java Runtime is not required.
Just extract XperiFirm's files to Flashtool folder and run XperiFirm.exe from there.

(without which anyway)

I would not say that. Those who will use the program only as a Checker (only check for new firmware versions) are also installed Java, it is not necessary to have FlashTool on board. Added your message in "Note"

Such a question: in the XperiFirm manual on xperiabloglink to manualIt is recommended not to include the .ta files in the created firmware, as in the screenshot.

And in the manual onsavagemessiahzine.comnothing is said about it. How to do it better ?

[axelrock]

TWIST_OF_HATE,
and what will happen if you turn on?
For more than six months of the utility's existence, I collected a couple of dozen firmwares that were installed on many devices (both mine and device members of the forum) - no excesses.
Also, these files are almost always present in the original firmware extracted from SUS and PC Companion.

Friends, at least you have updated the screenshots and instructions, since there is already support for different operating systems, and Java is no longer needed from version 4.0.


Thanks for the support!
