XperiFirm developer Igor Eisburg has updated the Sony Mobile firmware downloader, XperiFirm to version 5.0.0 which brings many required features. If firmware updates don't arrive for our devices, we definitely use the XperiFirm application to download the right firmware for our devices. But from the beginning, there was no download resuming support on XperiFirm. Guess what, with this new update you can even continue the incomplete or corrupted downloads. You just need to click start and Xperifirm will attempt to resume, but for massive firmware, it takes some time to continue.
Apart from the resuming support, Download Que is also a new feature that comes with the latest update. Now you can add more than one downloads which are saved on our computer and loaded on launch. As always there are bug fixes and performance enhancements. See the full changelog below.

- - 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 massive firmware, the continuing 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. The firmware will always be unpacked.
