Stuck on Bootloop with Teamwin Logo - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
So, I first circumvented the unlocking of the Bootloader in order to root and run Titanium Backup and stuff (although I'm afraid I missed moving it outside my phone's storage ... oops :/) However, I wanted to install ParanoidAndroid and therefore followed a guide that told me to flash a boot.img from inside the PA zip via fastboot. Which I did. Well now, my device doesn't respond to anything I do. The top LED is on like it's charging, and the Teamwin Logo flashes for a second, then the screen goes back to black, and this process now repeats indefinitely. So to say, I can't enter Recovery or do anything of the sort.
Have I ****ed up or do I have to wait for the phone to discharge completely so I can boot it anew or something?

Press and hold power button and volume up button at the same time (disconnect from charger or pc). Then just use fastboot to repair it the way you want.

Is there an .img file I need to use or can I just use flashtool for an FTF? Don't have anything similar to a recovery image that I could flash

Wrond forum, it should be in Q&A. If you can enter flash mode flash with flash tool (find fw around this forum). Try changing the kernel to stock with adb command (not that tool you are using) fastboot flash boot (name of the kernel). Charge it for an hour and see what happens. Post the flash tool log here.

Flash the boot.img from the CM9.1 zip file (fastboot flash boot boot.img). Then reboot into recovery by holding the power and vol+ buttons until the phone vibrates 3 times, then boot (power button) and press vol+ when the button lights come on.
Then follow the instructions given before by DavidMKD.

as far as i know, if the phone turn on any led, is still alive, try using flashtool and the original .tft, go for it in the P Development Section, download the 6.1.B.0.544 (Generic Version) and try to flash it, it might work, but you need to know this, if you flash it, you can void the warranty of the operator and if you unlocked the bootloader sony can't repair it (warranty void too) (i remember this was in the ToS of the bootloader unlock web)
Good luck.

do this, plug in the charger and let it charge (about 3 hours) and try to turn it on, if its a kernel problem, at least the phone try to boot up or turn on the backlight and get freezed, it's a OS/Kernel problem, but the question is, did you flash the correct kernel on it? remember the codename for xperia p is NYPON, inside the flashtool folders are the fastboot.exe, try to flashing a advanced kernel (the one made by DoomLoRD) and check for the phone, if it boot up until the xperia logo, everything is ok.

First, don't panic.
i made the same mistake when i flashed the first kernel, i think i messed up everything and... i recovered my phone xD
flash this kernel and hope the best, the instructions are in the post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716966
first of all dont worry just know that when u press all the three buttons at the same time it reboots and when u still keep them pressed it shuts off completely
i have an xperia p and had the same problem
what u have to do is rlly simple
first unzip the kernel (boot.img) from the fxp144_cm9.1 zip file
now copy this file into the folder in android sdk/tools or platform-tools (basically any folder with the fastboot.exe )
hope u have installed fastboot drivers
now switch off ur fone completely
and then connect ur fone in fastboot mode by pressing the vol up key and connecting the usb
(hope it goes into fastboot mode)
run this command in cmd in the folder containing the fastboot.exe
fastboot flash boot boot.img
this flashes the kernel
using falshtools u can either flash the zip file or u can do it through recovery if its alread in ur sd card
do it twice bcoz the firs time it flashes the kernel
if none works switch of ur fone completely, press the vol down button and connect the usb
this puts the phone in flash mode and u can flash ftf files of stock roms
all the best
P.S all this will work if u have an unlocked bootloader by the method giiven on sony's official site

i thing my phone is discharged. cant turn it on.
and cant charge too
keep the phone charging, the led doen't matter as far as i know.
last option is going to a sony service or something like that.
i think you should try to remove battery first. i used this method to recover my p. i opened the back cover and removed the battery for a few minutes and then did nothing but connected it in fastboot and flashed the correct kernel.
to remove back cover you have to remove two screws at the both sides and two under the bar over the camera. just remove the top plastic cover and you will be able to access the screws. then just remove the battery connector for a few minutes reconnect it and try flashing kernel again. i wish it also work for you bro. good luck. :good:

Bricked Xperia Z tablet

Hey guys,
I've got the xperia z tablet (16gb wifi only)
and I had unlocked it, the other day I saw it finally got an OTA update, so I let it update.
apparently that was a bad idea?, I was stuck with the broken android symbol every time i attempted to start the tablet..
I tried the sony software, the recovery thing it has. That has only made things worse, now the tablet refuses to start whatsoever.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'd appreciate it very much.

Hi
I had the same issues when I flashed the wrong ROM. Nothing worked no power light or anything.
Now I can't remember exactly what I did but I started to press buttons and I'm sure that holing the power button and the vol up for a while made it start again and it displayed an error and then went into flash mode .
As I said I'm not sure which buttons I pressed but I know that I held them in for a while
Try using Flashtool... Im pretty sure you can rcover it by flashing a FTF file.

So there is hope. :highfive:
I think I found the testpin. My sgp311 has started to blink after being dead since November, when I bricked it.
I don't have the device pack though.. Do you have any clue on how to find it? I think I just need the sgp311 SEMC package to resuscitate it now... Hopefully...

get the stock ftf file and flash it using flashtools, I was in a bootloop and it worked
i know its an old post but i have to try
i m in a boot loop and i want to find the Fed file in order to do a fastboot....
Can someone give them??
I test my tablet SGP321 with many ROMs.. I end up going to boot loop... Crashes and stuff but I always recover from it.
The things I do before doing anything insane with my tablet
1. Take backup off apps/data
2. Always enable debugging and Unknown Sources
3. Keep the backup of the ROMs
4. Always have the xperia flashtool on my computer
Here's what you can do..
Press and hold the Power button and the Volume Up button for ten seconds until you see a white light flashing three times. While doing this somewhere around in 5 seconds you'll see white led flashing once, but keep on pressing those buttons till it flashes next three times.
After that your tablet will be turned Off.
You can put your device in flash mode and flash a new ROM from Xperia flash tool.
If you get the error "Unknown sources and USB debugging must me enable for flash mode, then your option can be to flash the ROM from fastboot.
Download a ROM (CyanogenMod or any with custom recovery).
Flash the boot.img via fastboot and reboot your device.
Once done you should see a led lit up while the device is booting (pink/magenta color in case of CyanogenMod).
Press the volume up/down button and you should be able to go to recovery mode.
From here you can recover your device easily
And before you do anything make sure you've charged your device well.
Good luck

[Q] Xperia pro not enter flash(or fastboot) mode. LED blinks only...

Hi guys,
I have mk16i(xperia pro), and installed latest lx cm11 build. Then, I tried dark's kernel. But I wanted to revert to the stock kernel.
Now at that point, i couldn't enter the fastboot or flash mode anymore. The OS running w/o any problem. But i'm stuck with the dark's kernel(which is very battery unfriendly,10 hour standby)
When i try to connect the phone to PC while pressing menu(or back button) the LED blinks for miliseconds and the phone continues switching on normally (enter OS).
I know it is my fault to install nonstock kernel but I really need help. If anyone experienced this issue, it will be great to hear the advice.
Thanks in advance
Try taking out the battery for a few seconds, reinserting it, pressing the button for fastboot mode (I don't know which one you have to use for the xperia pro) and then you connect it to your PC while keeping the button pressed. This should work

Thanks for the reply.
I tried it many times. But no chance... The LED blinks then the phone goes into OS.
I tried to reboot fastboot via adb commands. Again same result. Directly goes to OS.
Flashtool also stucks at "Device will soon enter fastboot mode" nothing happens. Phone stays on...
Is it hw fault? I will be very disappointed if so I replaced its digitizer recently by paying too much money.) It was expensive when i bought it also... I cant stand buying a new phone these times... pff too many issues...
Sounds weird. I have made the experience that it sometimes helps to take the battery out, then keep pressing multiply and long the power button. Wait ~10 minutes. Insert the battery and try again!
Hopefully it helps!
Otherwise could maybe be kernel related. Try to flash another one (with recovery).

Thanks for the answers. Yes unlocked bootloader.
Since the device doesn't boot into "flash" mode also, i am not able to flash ftf through flashtool or any firmware via SEUS.
I had managed to enter fastboot mode once!
Happened with USB3.0 port via "adb reboot-bootloader" command.
Still, I am not getting into fastboot again...
I will inform you, thanks guys.
EDIT: I did it once again thru adb in recovery and flashed a stock kernel. Let me see the battery drain is due to kernel or some hw damage.
I am sure hw is damaged...
Ultimately solved...
After i am able to enter fastboot mode via some funny method described above, i erased system partition and flashed kernel.sin of the official .587 ftf file of Sony Xperia Pro.
Now the device is able to enter flash mode and fastboot mode via normal ways...
Thanks guys...
EDIT: I dont understand how is it related to kernel? I thought that bootloader files are damaged which i cannot correct them.
There are many .sin files in the stock .ftf which i cannot flash any of them without flash mode.(i was able to enter fastboot mode only)

Guys please help. I am very confused now: When i connect the phone to charger(AC) when the phone is OFF, the phone tries to enter flash mode!?! Led blinks green then the phone continues to open and offline charging animation comes as usual.
Sometimes the phone connects the charger in flash mode! But doesnt connect to usb in flash mode or fastboot mode. I know it is a bit confusing but that is the situation.

[Q] Xperia x2 bricking

Last night, i accidentally swiped to restore to an older ROM that i had. Not meaning to do this, and beginning to panic, i attempted to stop it, while it was still at 0%. I did this by holding the red button down. As i have now realised how stupid that was, i am wondering if there is any chance to fix it. It is now stuck on the Sony logo. Although i have seen many problems here, i cant find anyone that had the same problem as me. I was running the existenz ROM, and the ROM i was accidentally restoring to was the official ROM. Please help me

I had the exact same problem, I created a guide to help other people with this problem. Here it is. I can't post links yet but if you want to have a look, search for this on google ( oneplus : Xperia z2 bricked help!! ) It's the first link ( fourms Oneplus Net )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To get Sony's UI/ROM back:
Download and Install Flashtool from here.
Download a proper ( official ) ftf firmware for YOUR phone ( eg Sirius ).
Now copy the downloaded ftf firmware file to ( C:\Flashtool\firmwares )
Open the Flashtool and click on the little lightning rod and choose Flashmode.
Now a window will pop up and ask you to choose firmware for your device, Choose the one you downloaded and click flash.
--------Choosing a wrong one WILL further brick your device--------
Meanwhile, turn your phone completely off, To do this hold the Power button and the volume UP button until you feel your phone vibrate 3 times.
Flashtool will pop up saying you need to put your phone into flash/fastboot mode.
Now put it on fastboot/flash mode ( connect the usb to your computer and hold down the volume up button while plugging the other end to your phone. Your phone's LED should be blue at this stage.
The flashing process will start and once it's done, Flashtool will ask you to unplug the device and restart the phone.
The first boot takes 5-10 minutes.. CONGRATS YOU HAVE UN-BRICKED YOUR PHONE.
Now if you want to root your phone and install a custom recovery ( TWRP ), Download this package and extract it on your desktop
Make sure you have usb debugging turned on ( on your phone )
Navigate inside " to root" folder and run install.bat
Once thats done, to install recovery, navigate inside the " recovery folder " and run install.bat
Make sure to follow on-screen instructions. ( your computer and your phone )
Now you have Rooted sony ROM.

Thank you so much, as i have a mac, instructions had to be changed a little, but i was able to revert to a proper ROM again, and now have a fully functioning phone again. Thank you so much again.

No problem Always here to help.. if i can
Currently, I'm making a toolkit for all xperia z devices, just hoping it goes according to plan

Phone stuck on boot loop, can't recover.

I was trying to root my device with the help of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219. I'll admit right now that I have no experience in such manners and this is my first root.
Anyway, after successful flashing of device I unplugged it after closing Flash and turned it on only to find it in a constant loop where it just freezes at those waves and starts over. This is too early for the recovery mode option but I tried to press volume up or down repeatedly and the phone just ignores my attempts. PC can't read it normally but it sees it as a 'hidden' file under the name of Removable Device.
In a moment of panic I pressed the little emergency red button next to the charge port and to no avail , nothing changed or got worse, I don't think it can even if it tried. (I'm still worried this step might have ruined everything).
Please help!!

EDIT: Fixed. Sorry for wasting your time.
I have the same probleme ...can anyone help Us please? :'( :'( :'(
I hope that flashmode and fastboot work.
If so, turn the phone off. Prepare flashtool with an ftf (keep wipe data checked), press flash and then connect your phone in a flashmode.
Sent from Xperia Z2
Luckily not from an iPhone = Yesterdays technology at tomorrows prices
No need to be in panic
simply download and flash any ftf files for your device model number by using flashtool. Please read properly how to install and use flashtool
