Who said? You don't need unlock for Flashing FTF.
Where did you read that unlock is needed?
My FLASHTOOL says that!
That was the message after connecting my Z.
Flashtool is for unlocked devices (what is actually logical).
It even says so on Sony's site.

I think there's some confusion here between flashtool (http://androxyde.github.com) and Sony's own "flash tool".
The prior doesn't need root and is made by some devs over on xda, the latter is Sony's tool for flashing from EMMA.
Use flashtool from
http://androxyde.github.com and ftf files from xda and you'll be fine.

^^^ Thanks. I actually would prefer the Sony's way, I don't trust dev sources 100%.
I mean I have no idea how to deal with troubleshooting, bugs etc.

Do you mean troubleshooting bugs in flashtool?
There are plenty of people here who can off good support to you for flashtool and you'll get 10x as much if you look in the right places on xda.
I don't mind helping at all if you need any help. I do it quite often through the various threads here on esato and in PM. I do recommend using flashtool it doesn't take you out of the Sony update schedule, all future updates will come through without complication and it doesn't require unlocking the bootloader or rooting the device.
If you do make sure you get the latest versions from xda, often new handsets will require the newest version to accommodate the recognition of the device.

I want Sony flashtool and right now I have no idea how to properly install Android SDK.
It looks very complicated.

Where is this:
"10.Place the unzipped file in the usb_driver folder, located in the Android SDK > extras > google folder on your computer. Accept to replace the old android_winusb.inf-file with the new file. If you can't find the usb_driver folder, please install the Google USB Driver Packager using the Android SDK manager."

That's because of your usage pattern. You use the Z a lot more so the estimated standby time has gone down. Even mine had gone to 12 hours..but after getting back to using the Z moderately, the estimated standby time has again increased.
