I have sony ericsson neo v on 4.0.4 build 4.1.b.0.431 with unlocked bootloader (by official method), rooted, and CWM installed by X-part. I believe the cause is that I did not format /system (in mounts and storage), format /cache, and format /Data.
I am unable to access CWM. Could anyone able to access CWM and then re-flash the Pureness by CWM, or I have to flash with FlashTool to install the original Stock ICS. Then start all over again??!!
I have not done any FlashTool before. Any guideline??
Many thanks!!!
Did you first install the kernel as advised?
If not, then flash the kernel through fastboot and then boot into CWM.

I actually flash the follow the installation as follow but apparently omit step 4-6 below:
1.Factory reset in cwm
2.wipe cache partition
3.wipe dalvik cache
4.Format /system (in mounts and storage)
5.Format /cache
6.Format /Data
7.Install Xperia_Ice_Cream_Pureness_build_10.00.zip
8.Install patch for your phone model
9.Reboot now and you are done !
I did not 'first install the kernal as advised'??
Is this a fix, and could you tell me more how exactly fastboot and flash the kernal as you suggest??
Thanks!!!

Flash alliance kernel via fastboot...after that you'll be able to access cwm( To get into fastboot turn off your phone and plug in the usb while holding the menu key,led will turn blue... In the folder where fast boot is present in your pc hold shift key and press the right button & open cmd, then enter fastboot flash boot boot.img)"boot.img will be the name of the img file you're about to flash"
Or
You can enter into cwm by using the app called x parts, but you'll be unable to get into cwm by pressing the volume down key
Press thanks if I helped you

Few more queries to clarify:
1. '......In the folder where fast boot is present in your pc hold': pc stands for PC Companion??
2. Do I need to download boot.img?? If so, please forward me the link??
3. After flashing the boot.img, is it just lead to fixing the CWM??
4. After fixing the CWM, should I simply follow the steps again on flashing the Pureness ROM, or I must flash the 'alliance kernel' first??
5. Please forward me the link for 'alliance kernel'.
Many thanks!!!
As for your questions,
1. PC here means your computer.. And the folder means that folder where you have kept your fastboot files!
2 & 5. Here's the link of the alliance kernel that you need to flash..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566871
Copy this .img kernel into the fastboot folder, and rename it to boot.img
Holding the shift key, right click and you get an option to open the command window..
In fastboot mode, holding the menu key while inserting the usb cable.. Type the following in the cmd..
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Now turn your phone on.. Boot into CWM by pressing the volume down button.. Install the ROM from CWM!

Thanks again.
I understand all what you advise. Basically this is how bootloader was unlocked by official method, of course apart from flash the boot.img.
However if I able to save from stuck at SONY logo, is it true that my NEO V could boot as usual before??
Thanks!!!
You won't stuck at Sony logo anymore if you follow all the steps properly!

You are not connected in fastboot.
Turn off phone.
Press menu button on phone and connect usb.
Open command window and naviagate to where your fastboot file is.
Type fasboot devices
If it returns nothing your phone is not connected.
Like this CONNECTED DEVICES:
If it is connected it will return something like this

Fastboot refers to unlocked bootloader as root.
Have you unlocked your bootloader?
You will know if you have done it! If you are unsure then you have not unlocked it, therefore, you cannot flash custom kernels so you need to either:
1. Use custom roms that are for LOCKED bootloader, or
2. Unlock your bootloader. To do this check the sticky threads in the DEV section

You cannot conect in fastboot with a locked bootloader.
Also, it seems daft that you are using 2 threads to discuss this problem.
My final bit of advice.
Download flashtool (its in the sticky threads in the dev section)
Download a stock .ftf (Found in the sticky threads in the dev section)
Flash the .ftf using flashtool when connected in flash mode (Not fastboot mode) You enter flashmode by pressing back button, not the enu button when connecting.
Once you have done that the phone should boot up with stock rom. Then you can use flashtool to install a recovery and install the pureness rom properly.

Download (Dont worry its for neo v, it doesnt matter, its just stockrom to get you going)
Place in firmware folder of flashtool.
Open flashtool
press flash icon
choose the file in the link
Turn off phone
Press back button and keep pressed then attach usb cable.
Flashtool will recognise your phone
let go of back button
wait untill flashtool finishes
disconnect and turn on phone.
First boot may take a while.
Goto settings and allow unknown sources and usb debugging.
Then use flash tool to root, install recovery and then you can install pureness via CMW making sure you follow every step in the guide, including all the wipes.
Hello guys,
I will try to explain my problem in few points. I was trying to flash my phone with CM11 and the steps I took are:
1. flashed kernel using fastboot (boot.img)
2. wiped data, cache etc.
3. noticed I forgot to copy CM11 to internal memory
4. the phone can't boot and I'm unable to copy data, it stucked at Sony logo
5. I can't recover it as I wiped all data
6. tried to flash it with stock rom using flashtool, but the green light turn on only for about 2 sec and then the red one appears/ the same with fastboot purple led
7. I can still enter CWM, but I don't know how it could help

Also tried that. I connected usb cable while kepping pressed volume up key and typed in command line 'fastboot flash boot boot.img and it keep saying < waiting for device >.
Is there a way to upload kernel or whole rom to internal memory when the phone is bricked?

Extract the zip http://d-h.st/vvJ
Put your boot.img in the extracted folder
Open command in that folder

I can't, that's why I asked.
The problem is that the phone do not enter flash or fastboot mode so I'm unable to upload kernel or rom using these methods.

My D6503 is currently running paranoid android. Previously I've been using cwm but yesterday I decided to try out TWRP. I install TWRP using the TWRP manager in play store but after that when I try to boot to recovery it would show a black screen and orange light on the top speaker. Then I tried to install XZDualRecovery using the installer's method 1 (custom rom with superSU). However after install when the phone reboots it stucks and the sony logo keep flashing. I force shut down using the red button on the side and I managed to get to the system and removed XZDualRecovery. However I still can't get into recovery, it will just show that black screen and orange light. So I wanna ask you guys what should I do to get access to recovery again?
Thank you

use flashtool>flashtool.net to flash the TWRP IMG in the original development section, you will need to re-flash Paranoid android ROM to get cwm back
you cant change the recovery pre-packaged into a ROM
Xperia's don't have a recovery partition so recoveries are bundled with the kernel

2. download a FTF (there is a ftf thread at top of the general section)
3. put FTF in firmwares folder in flashtool folder
4. click flash device icon at the top left
5. click the FTF you selected
6. wait for it to finish preparing
7. power off device
8. plug in flashmode (volume down held and plug usb in)
9. wait for it to finish
10. enjoy stock or install recovery and flash a custom rom

thank you very much. Looks like it gonna take plenty of time. Will do it later when I have time
There is a easier way to get CWM back. Just flas the boot.img from pa and then go into fastboot (in case you are not already and do "fastboot erase recovery"
On the Z2 the recovery is included in the kernel, and once recovery boots it get expanded to the recovery part. As this is filled by TWRP ATM, none of the 2 will boot.

Well how am I suppose to flash my zip files 0on the SD card if the screen is completely black ? I am pretty fresh to this .I have root but still on stock rom. Wanted to try the 4.4.4 for my Z2 but i dont have CWM installed and i wanted to install CWM but how do i do that if i cant reboot in fastboot mode
well if you are new, you should read for couple of hours first on the forum.
there are many threats with exact instruction.
or should all write same thing 1000x when someonw new comes to the forum?
but in few words
- fastboot is always black screen (you use adb on pc to put files to the phone in this mode, like change kernel with recovery)
- flashing zip is done in recovery (no black screen there)
- before flashing or fasboot entering always read forums first so you know what you are doing...

Unlock your bootloader after backing up your TA files while you're still on 4.4.2. You will loose your DRM keys by doing this !
Install 4.4.4 through Emma.
Download Doomlord advanced stock kernel v7 .
Unzip and copy boot.IMG into your SDK platform tools folder.
Power off your Z2 and hold volume up while connecting USB to your Z2,this way you will enter fastboot mode.
Open command window in platform tools folder and type :
fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
It will flash kernel and CWM recovery,after this type :
fastboot reboot
Your Z2 will reboot , during purple led hold volume up to enter CWM recovery mode,here you can flash update SuperSu 2.16 .zip to obtain root.
Doomlord advanced stock kernel & CWM you can find here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702001 , Google for SuperSu 2.16 .zip will take you to Chainfire's site.
Good luck,if you're new to this:read well before acting☺
Thanks a lot for the replies. Yes I will read again. I always forget between the times I do this! I have done this many times but with other phone models so its time to fresh up the memory

Hahaha sweet
There is a fastboot and flashmode both have black screen and can only be controlled by a computer and USB cable. There is this awesome "Flashtool" which has a nice GUI for both.
You can flash .ftf and .img files.
If you want to flash a .zip file you need a recovery. You can either flash NUTs dual recovery or Doomlords advanced stock kernel and then boot into recovery.

Hey, don't worry if you do these steps exactly then your phone can enter the recovery normally and you can flash any rom again and recover your phone from this brick
1- Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot from this link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24521665358595410
2- Download and install Flashtool drivers from this link: http://doomlord.xperia-files.com/download.php?dlid=Rmxhc2h0b29sLWRyaXZlcnMtMS41LTIwMTQwMzE4
Skip Step 2 if you already installed Flashtool Drivers that install with Flashtool if you have installed it.
3- Download the latest twrp recovery from this link: https://dl.twrp.me/sirius/twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img.html
4- Move the twrp recovery that you have downloaded in step 3 to this Path C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
5- Download this kernel from this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwn7bAJ-USZjZzg0Q2I2RWlWa1U/view?pref=2&pli=1
6- Extract it then you will find boot.img take this file and move it too to this Path C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
7- put your phone in fastboot mode by this way >> (Power off your phone completely then wait for 10 second then press and hold the volume up then connect your phone to the computer with usb cable while you are pressing and holding the volume up then the led will change it's color to blue.. that is the fastboot mode)
8- Now go to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder in that path (C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot) Press shift button from keyboard then press right click form mouse while pressing the shift button you will find an option [Open command window here] Press it.
9- In the command window write this command exactly: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img
10- Then write this command after it: fastboot flash boot boot.img
11- After it flashed successfully reboot your phone by writing this command: fastboot reboot then unplug the usb from the phone

13- Done

i have a sony xperia z2 d6503. i successfully flashed a 6.0.1 pre-rooted .575 firmwarea and forgot about the bootloop fix. then i realized it and successfully flashed it. the problem is after all that my phone is unable to get into the recovery mode because there is no purple light when i should press volup to start TWRP. Phone boots up system when i plug my charger in, and doesn't show the battery icon with procents instead. system works but i'd like to flash pexocam mod and i can't halp plz!!!

Is that advanced kernel going to work with a locked bootloader? I don't mind unlocking my bootload since I've already backed up the TA partition, but it is a hassle I'd like to avoid if possible.
Yes he would work

sorry but
5- Download this kernel from this link:
6- Extract it then you will find boot.img take this file and move it too to this Path C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
no files there, said be missing ( so i got no boot.img )
i tried an old cwm6.0 ( named boot.img ) but cannot enter twrp, seems never been flashed in.
Besides, your flashtool versions 1.5(20140318) but i install the another ver.flashtool-0.9.22.3-windows.exe, is that a point? Drivers seems ok

I see. I have encountered this error with recovery when i tried to update busybox and it seems that root was partially broken so no writing permission to System partitions.
What i did to solve this is installing kingroot and it gave me a root authentication error so i pressed fix root and it re-rooted my phone and repaired root permissions.
then i did the steps described in the above link and it worked.
ok so i'll flash stock 5.0 then root it again?

Flash 5 and than root via kingroot and than flash prerooted v6 and you would have root.
