bad flashing - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
i root my phone and install xrecovery cwm5 with flashtool 0.5.3.
i reboot in recovery and wipe all, finally install pRime 4.2.
And reboot, but my phone stay on Sony Ericsson screen a lot of time (about 10 min).
i put out the battery and put in, my phone don't boot.
How can i return in recovery mode?
I try with flashtool to install an another ROM, but he say
INFO - Searching Xperia...
ERROR - USB\VID_0FCE&ADDE\5&550083A&0&1
What can I do
I really need help.

Do u have unlocked boot loader?

1. This is the wrong Section !!!
2. You can't install anyrom ( other than the stock ) with flashtool .
3. You have to be on unlocked bootloader to flash custom kernels .
4. You saying you see the Sony Ericsson logo , I think you are on locked bootloader & you installed cwm 5 via xrecovery ? ( cob's method right ? )
5 . So don't try to do anything with flashtool , Try flashing another rom from Recovery.
6. Or try to get your bootloader unlocked , check for sticky guides ,then flash my given kernel from Flashtool & flash the rom via recovery .

Sorry,
i do a recovery with SE software.
i flash a new kernel and a new ROM, all is fine now.
I have my 3 phones with MIUI rom's.
Thanks.

Xperia Pro recovery mode to install CM ROM questions

Hi,
I've Xperia Pro MK16i, with stock 4.0.4 ROM, boot loader unlocked and rooted.
I really want to install recently released CM9-RC1 ROM but have been unsuccessful probably due to CWM recovery.
I was only able to install CWM auto installer which would only boot into recovery if i do it from within booted stock rom, but not manually when i reboot and try to go into recovery mode. i tried all key combinations like volume key down/up when at reboot sony logo flashes bright and led turns blue for a second.
Nevetheless i tried to install CM90RC1 by following official cyanogenmod instructions in which i failed when the guidelines states to fastboot and flash boot.img extracted from CM9-RC1.zip file and then reboot from fastboot. it just stuck there and would not even flash sony logo.
I relocked the bootloader and installed the stock ROM through Sony PC companion repair option.
Now i have again unlocked the bootloader and rooted. but not sure how to proceed now.
I guessed may be i need custom ROM with CWM recovery builtin. i came across this site
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315904&highlight=108
kindly guide me if the link above will help me installing Cyanogenmod ROM and does it come with CWM recovery built in.
Also whats the difference between multiple downloads on the above link like FXP129 and CM9 baseband?
What files do i have to download now, to install Cyanogenmod ROM?

Downgrade firmware to. 314 kit kat and than root and install recovery and finall y try to flash rom.
For locked BL you must flash stock based custom roms.

Can't access anything

So, I think I finally did it. I broke my phone.
I wanted to flash the new Existenz Rom 6.0 and the flashing worked fine. The phone started and it got stuck in the Xperia logo. I than downloaded the Bootloop Fix. To make sure nothing goes wrong I wanted to do another factory reset. Somehow, my phone uses two roms (Philz custom recovery or something like that (I flashed the rom with this) and a TWRP Recovery). My phone booted into the TWRP (which it usually doesn't do) Recovery and I thought "Well, I can do a factory reset here". So I did the advanced reset but after restarting I can't access anything! When I turn it on, there is still the Sony Logo but if I press up and down I can't access none of the custom recoverys. I'm truly desperate and I can't afford a new phone. Can someone help me how to fix this?
@DerDokktor
XZDR and similar recoveries for locked bootloader reside in /system partition , when you wiped your system you also wiped the recovery...
You'll need to flash an .ftf firmware with flashtool to recover your phone. If you want root and a locked bootloader flash a KK or LP ftf (as MM is not rootable yet), then root it with kingroot or something else you like, install XZDR from your computer and then you can go to the recovery again and flash existenz rom or any prerooted rom you want.
You could also flash a MM .ftf directly but then you won't be able to root it without unlocking your BL.
If you need help with flashtool follow this guide:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/03/1...peria-lollipop-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool/
Edit: the first steps of this guide are to create your own .ftf , if you already have an .ftf downloaded you can go straight to the "Now that the FTF firmware file has been created, you need to flash your Sony Xperia device." section of the guide.

-Android 6.0.1
-newest firmware 23.5.A.1.291
-UNlocked bootloader

Official twrp-3.0.2-0 succesfully flashed in fastboot but when i try command "fastboot reboot recovery" the mobile only load android and turns on normally... the combination hardware buttons also do not work.
The next question is, What is a kernel ? I have successfully installed this kernel .... Could this be the reason why I can't load the recover mode?
Please help me, I don't know what to do anymore :crying: all I want is root and custom rom
EDIT: okay, i successfully root phone and finally i have access to recovery mode (TWRP 3.0.2-0) by THIS TUTORIAL now i need help with installing the custom ROM step-by-step because if I turn something wrong and phone will be bricked again, I guess I'll kill myself xD so What is next step for install custom ROM please ? Can I just download THIS, install the zip in TWRP and that´s all ???

before you do this you should backup all your important data
1-wipe data factory reset
2- wipe cache
3- install zip rom
4- download google apps and install it by recovery it should be a zip file
5-repot system and enjoy
the recovery is like twrp or cwm it's not a kernel
there is 2 type of kernel :
1-kernel itself
2-kernel with merged recovery
about the kernel and recovery, there is deference the kernel is very important for system to work it connects between the hardware and the software and every operating system has its own kernel but here in android they sometimes merge kernel with recovery but when you flash-kernel or recovery every one replace each other be careful and know that, don't worry you won't brick something in the near future when you will install custom ROMs you will notice that.
if you need any help you can ask me

I bought a SONY Z5Campact docomo mod (SO-02H) and used the qUnlockTool to change Bootloader unlock allowed "NO" to "YES" , then i started the FLASHING

NOW , THE TROUBLE HAPPENED , It can't boot now !!! however time goes , boot animation is LOOPING
in FLASHTOOL , I can't flash any ROM whichever I choosed the SO-02H or E5802 or E5823
Also I tried the Sony official flash tool "EMMA" , now it shows my phone is not SO-02H , it changed to the E5823 !!!

Perform a bootloader relock using flashtool,
Why not flash the stock rom?
In any case, the custom rom does not work properly on the so-02h.
Maybe you will continue to use android 6.
The stock rom is not comfortabal to use for me. so i thought if i flash a custom ROMs, it will be more battery saving and smoothly
I had flashed every phone that i bought since i start using android phone with Android 2.3, if without flash a magisk/super/xposed and greenify, the Chinese apps will **** your RAM and memory
Now i can flash recovery by fastboot command and flash any rom by TWRP, even i can boot to bootanimation, but just can't boot to system and flash with flashtool/newflasher.etc.

I think that the global ftf can be flashed with Docomo Xperia up to about Z4.
