deleate the Battlefield 4 folder instead of renaming it and don't download the online-Backup from the EA-Servers. You can do this every time or write this in windows editor and name it "reset BF4.bat" (only works if this folder is on your homepath) cd %HOMEPATH% cd Documents rd Battlefield 4 exit this should do it's job but be carefull if your path doesnt match this will deleate (if available) a Folder called Battlefield 4 in you'r user-folder

+Mike Daniels when you don't do this you can soft-brick you'r device which means that you will end in a bootloop or some modules like LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth are not working propperly. Also PRFCreator may has problems creating the flashable .zip file. This method may also work for 6.0 when it is released. When you get a bootloop use Sonys PC Compenion or Flashtool to restore you'r device.

yeah, you can skip to flash Android 4.4.4 and to root it, since you already got it including Recoverys (used my method ^^).

Sorry for the long guide, We have to go back to Android 4.4.4 to flash some recoverys, which we are going to use to flash a pre-rooted Android 5.0-Version. I don't use Kingroot because of a "save or trojan?" discussion on XDA. Also sometimes you need to use this method anyways, because Kingroot fails to grant full-root (seems like 1 out of 4 will fail) :D. This guide contains: -tonns of required stuff to download - sorry :( -Downgrading to 4.4.4 -Creating a pre-rooted Android 5.0 or 5.1.1.zip (Recoverys included). -Flashing this through Recovery. This guide skips: -Downloading all files in the Video (i think you are clever enugh to find the downloads whith the help of the description ^^) -a link to every single Android 4.4.4 FTF (only Z Ultra - C6833 - included), sorry, i'm shure the video helps you to find an .FTF for you'r device.

if you want to install the ADB drivers on windows 8/8.1 you have to do this via disable driver verification. go to Settings - change PC settings - Update and Recovery - Recovery and choose restart now. From there choose Troubleshoot - Advanced Options - Startup Settings. Select option 7 and you`re good to go installing ADB drivers. The driver verification is disabled till you reboot your PC.
