Bricked! Need help!! - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

My device is from Hong Kong, locked bootloader.
I was on FW 475, and up to 510 international using ftf file via flashtool. Everything went well, but just got headache on fake hang and SOD.
So, I decided to try roooted, deodexed 510. I install CWM for locked bootloader, again no event.
But, when I installed from zip, the device rebooted within 40 secs as people said.
Then it went totally bricked.
After exhausting search in internet and this forum, I found no solution.
Could someone help?

Do i need to unlock my bootloader so i can flash a firmware using FlasherTool?
How would i do that without the phone turning on?
Sonny778, No you don't need to unlock the bootloader. You hold the back button when the phone is off and plug in the usb cable when prompted its seriously one of the easiest things to do if you cared to read the instructions properly and I've also got the 2.3.2 generic uk ftf I can upload it if you want

Hi
"thatsupnow" can u upload 2.3.2 generic uk ftf for xperia play?
All this rom was uploaded on megaupload and now this website is blocke =d by FBI
Many thanks
Just use wontan, google it
Ive no idea whats wontan. Google cant find it.
I tried many options to find this rom, but all files was on mediaload which now is closed
So, if someone have this rom please upload it
many thanks
It's actually Wotan.
Ive found it. Any chance to download rom without paying?
I've never heard of anyone paying for a rom, best to search the wotan info better.
OK, ive found free option to upgrade ROM.
But when im trying to connect my xperia play with wotan client, nothing happend. This program cant find my phone.
My phone is locked to o2 and bootloader is blocked.
What im doing wrong? Which button is service button - menu button?
Credits are free, try it

Nice Guides.
Good guides. I'll stay on UL BL since my x10's warranty is already expired years ago. Locked Bootloader means limited possibilities to "play around" with our precious X10. While waiting for the camera (at least) and hotspot (not important to me) to be working on Championswimmer's AOKP, I'll stick to MM TEAM 7.2 v1.0 since everything works so smooth with MM TEAM CM 7.2's ROM. Just my 2cent.
Sure

Yeah, gotta wait for Kang Team to release the Build 39 for AOKP so that Championswimmer can start working on it for the next release as I believe he will do his magic to make sure that the camera is working on AOKP for our X10!

Yes the forum would be great!
Gained root.
Thought I would let others know that Bin4ry script from Sony Experia thread works for a hassle free root on Telstra Urbane Zte T22.
Now just need find a recovery.
I agree!
I got his phone a while and successfully rooted it and flashed recovery CWM.
The stock is so laggy and slow. Would love a replacement.
Install CWM for the phone (which I have) by personal messaging me and I will send you the URL, silly XDA rules. -.-
also there is heaps of custom roms there that work for the t22. Trial and error, I have cm10 and a few others already on my phone. )
Sounds great. Are you able to let us know which phones roms work with T22?
Sent from my brick.
I have tried a few for the Blade 3, there is quite a variety, some work some don't, but since they are nearly the exact same phone, the t22 will work with nearly any rom for the blade 3.

Found a way to unlock it for free. Tryed to follow these instructions using google translator 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=376369 its kind of a downgrade back to 2.2.3 and it worked, now I just have to get back to ics
Name of a custom rom?
Any have a rom that WILL work with the t22?
Thanks for your time, much appriciated!
Plenty of Roms on Modaco, I think it is, just search up Blade3 Cyanogenmod and it should come up with one by Konstang.
Sent from my LG-E975K using xda premium
Stock Rom?
Hi there,
2 things: yes, you can install many Blade3 ROMs in the T22, and the most popular that is confirmed to work is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod (you can install 10.2, but it still needs official development from Qualcomm before FM Radio and Bluetooth work, so I suggest 10.1), compiled by developer KonstaT.
As I have the New Zealand version of this device, I can confirm it works well, and will certainly do so here. However:
I advise against doing it if you don't know how to backup and restore a nandroid, purely because there are NO STOCK ROMS available from either ZTE or Telstra websites, and without that backup, you'll have no choice but to void any warranty you may have had if you neglected to do so! Even I find that idea annoying, and yet I don't have that problem!
Just a friendly warning from a cousin across the ditch.
Thanks I'll check it out.

[Q] so, is there a way to flash from 532 to 290?

i'm on 532 (root and recovery) and have been for a while. i've looked at a few threads in dev forum and can't find if there's a way to just flash to a newer version or if i have to go the long way round?
or is it just a case of following:

Yeah, just flash NUT's ROM
hmm, will give it a go this weekend then. cheers.
still waiting on 4G from Three and just realised i don't have an LTE option in mobile networks. think i might be on too old a version
Depends on what ftf you flashed to get 532. If it was [nut]'s one then I think it was based of my ftf so a non lte 6802. [Nut]'s rom is based of a 6833 ftf so will have lte
Sent from my Xperia Z Ultra using Tapatalk
ah, that would be it then. will try it asap. really need the added upload speed. upped 190GB so far this month and some people around here are reporting 10 fold increase in upload speed
well that went screwy. bootloop. flashed straight to 290 ftf which works and i have LTE but i can't root it. grr
trying to go to 532 again and start from scratch even if i have to use vroot.
Bootloop but everything works? Wut? Is it working or not? Can't you root? Is that the issue?
Sent from my C6806_GPe using Tapatalk
bootloop on flashing to 290 (NUTs guide) so went to 290 direct to recover but root didn't work.
now went back to 532 but that won't even pickup any cell connection at all.
i'm ready to throw this thing against the wall at the minute.
---------------------
binarys app didn't work for root so got it via vroot again. now to figure out how to get to a newer rom with room that can have working cell data
Ah, i get it.
my IMEI is blank now somehow. hmm
ok, flashed it back to 290, unlocked bootloader again, used the all in 1 tool and now that seems to have stuck.
have a 4g option, root and can download on 3g at the moment. if i can just restore my apps then the last 5 and a bit hours won't have been in vain
Wont have been in vain as you have learnt things...

p.s cheers LM, blueether.
will reflash again tonight to try and sort out xposed. won't install for some reason but might be TB related.

LM, if i might pick your brain once more.
since moving to 290 my battery life has been awful.
i used wakelock detector and in the last 4 hours sonyericsson.android.wakeup woke my phone 4877 times
i found this but one of the notes mentions screwing up the device by editing build prop.

i'm not averse to editing the prop (had to previously for lcd density) but is there a better way you're aware of to disable this?

[Q] LG G2 mini TELCEL " [LGE_SECURITY] ERROR: boot image signature"

Hello everybody!
I have an LG G2 mini D-625 from Mexico's TELCEL
also I have a RAZRi and a S3 mini fully unlocked and rocking CM and MIUI respectively, so I am not a total newby but still this is only my third phone with heavy mods.
I got to work on the G2 mini since I was planning on replacing my RAZRi.
I read a lot before starting, and downloaded all the drivers, tools and kdz's I needed to start.
Got the May release of the original ROM and was able to load it using the LG flash tool and the LG mobile support tool.(at this point the phone was able to get into S/W download mode)
I was able to boot with no problems and I proceeded to get root access, I did so using towelroot v1
at this point everything was still OK and I installed the supersu apk
then I trtied to flash TWRP to then flash some custom ROM and that's all there was..
next thing I see this error for a little bit and then the phone restarts.
[LGE_SECURITY] ERROR: boot image signature
[LGE_SECURITY] 5 seconds after Power is turned off for Battery saving
I have tried to get into recovery and S/W download mode and I am not able to do neither.. I actually stopped trying for a while, but decided to ask since reading got me nowhere.
I've read suggestions to just flash another kdz and that's it. But I am NOT able to get into any of those modes and I have tried every imaginable combination of keys (power + either up or down vol keys)
using the wall charger and the pc(same pc that has the drivers already since I was able to downgrade before) and still nothing.
Again, it was not my intention to bother with a Question, but I really exploited all resources.. (I even read some German, Italian and Brazilian forums.. so I DID read a lot before posting.
Moved here, since this does not belong in the development sections....read the Forum Rules on posting

Thing is, I can't really follow these steps.. Since on that post says that the phone's screen goes black but the phone is still on. In my situation the phone never stops the rebooting until I remove the battery. I do have Linux as well, so I am trying right now and the phone just reboots.

Flashed one modified boot image and can't enter in recovery, fastboot or normal mode.
The phone restart every time in the same error.
Anyone can solve this?
No, no solution found yet.
I think maybe this weekend I'll try to go to a Telcel store and try to return it. I'll just say I was trying to update using LG mobile support.. see if it sticks..
I'll be sure to let you guys know if this works.

Hello friends.
I went to a Telcel store today, and they took the cellphone back! They did say that it looked like someone tried to modify the software and that the solution for that was to send it back to the manufacturer. Do they did. Supposedly in about 12 days it should be back.. So I'll let you guys know.

Hope not!! they did check the warranty first and then they took it back. also I am under a contract, so they kinda force that warranty on you.
no money was mentioned.
as I said... I will let you guys know.. again this is with Mexico's TELCEL
No news?
They threw me in jail!!
Haha! Jk
They did however gave me the phone back as it was and did not fix a thing. And yes, they said it was because there was unknown software installed.
I got the address for their specialized technical team, but I'm to lazy to do it right now.
I'll post again to tell you guys how much they will charge me IF they can fix it..
Thanks for asking, and sorry I forgot to post the bad news when I got them.
