No problem
Just install Flashtools V 0.9.18.5
And install Your Drivers
And Do flash Your Rom
No need usb Debugging
Are You Can Flash Stock ROM?

Unless you've messed up the TA partition, our phones are pretty hard to brick. If you hold vol_up then plug in USB to your PC, it should boot into flash mode with a blue LED. That means you can use Flashtool to flash an FTF file to the phone, effectively factory program it.

Installing ClockworkMod Recovery

Hi,
I'm on the process of installing ClockWorkMod Recovery, stupid of me i forgot to enable USB Debugging option on my phone. Now I'm stuck on Command Prompt saying...
C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash boot recovery-nozomi.img
< waiting for device >
It has been sitting for more than 5 minutes as I am typing now. Should I disconnect the USB cord? Would this action brick my phone?
Sorry for my stupidity!

Hi soulhackereborn!
Sorry for the late reply! Sorry the forum prevented me from posting the URL as I am just a new user here.
"To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding!"
Anyway the tutorial says (copy&paste):
Use the computer for downloading the CWM file from here.
Then, on the same computer download fastboot from here.
Extract fastboot on C:\ drive.
Then, copy the downloaded “ecovery-nozomi.img” file to the Fastboot folder from your computer.
Now you must connect the phone in fastboot mode with the computer.
In order to do so you must plug the USB cord to the PC, then on your phone press and hold the Volume Up button and while doing this connect the USB cable to your Xperia S.
Up next, on the PC click on “Start -> Accessories -> on Command prompt right click -> Run as administrator”.
The command prompt window will now be displayed.
Now, enter the following commands (press enter after each one): “cd c:\Fastboot” and “fastboot flash boot recovery-nozomi.img”.
CWM will now be flashed.
In the end the “finished / OKAY” message should be displayed.
In command prompt enter “fastboot reboot”.
Your handset should now reboot into ClockworkMod recovery.
Remove the USB cord and disconnect the Xperia S from the computer.

everything seems to be good in the tutorial though..
But what is it a kernel, rom or an CWM image file ???
if still it says waiting for device then here's a couple things you should check :-
1) Fastboot ie; S1 Boot driver installed or no
2) Switch off phone and connect it to the PC via usb holding Volume + button (this is fastboot mode)
3) Check does your device remain in fastboot mode or no i mean purple led light glows stays on continuously or no until u execute the command, if not reinstall the driver and try again
4) If everything well till now try flashing with the given commands without the quotes ie; fastboot flash boot recovery-nozomi.img

1. I dont know how to check, it should be installed as i unlock the bootloader yesterday. I actually manually updated it on Device Manager.
2. I understand this.
3. On my case, it's a blue LED lit steadily after doing step 2. I am using Sony Xperia S.
4. Yes, i flashed them without the quotes.

Try rebooting both your PC and phone... This is a small thing but always helps and one more thing after switching off the phone n before connecting it in fastboot mode let der be a gap of alteat a min or two
Is this tutorial on xda or some other forum if on xda then try messaging me the link or tel me forum sub forum topic and title
Usually <waiting for device> can show up when you don't have proper drivers installed. Double check them if you haven't done so.

Dude as far as I know there is no need to check/ tick USB debugging for fastboot... It's just for flashtool..
Try re -installing the drivers again manually or let windows search over internet...
Finally, i made it! thanks to both of you!
fastboot.exe seems to be corrupted!
Problem solved!
Just last one question, now that i have CWM recovery on my phone, is it already rooted? sorry i am beginner...

Thanks!
I'm currently downloading Cyanogenmod ver 9.1. Hopefully it works! Thank you so much buddy! You have been very helpful! If I get problems on flashing CM9.1, i'll contact you , hehe
One of the reminders on isntalling CM9 is:
Make sure that your Xperia S is already running a rooted firmware, and that it has the ClockworkMod Recovery properly installed.
How do I know I have a rooted firmware? Do I still need to flash FTF file?
By the way, I am getting a boot loop from CWM recovery, I cant go to the homescreen, no option to turn off! It only reboots the CWM.
(Still downloading CM9 as of the moment)

[Sony Xperia U] Reboot loop, cannot flash.

Hi, I tried to install a custom JB rom on my Sony Xperia U but now I'm in a reboot loop when i connect my device to the computer it connects and disconnects all the time cannot even flash please help thanks.
Are you connecting it off, then holding Vol - to trigger fastboot on USB? Don't do it when it's bootlooping.
Check the following things:
1 you have unlocked bootloader.
2 you have Xperia u fastboot and flashing drivers properly installed.
Reinstall drivers if you aren't sure whether they're properly installed or not
3 you said you're getting bootloop so your device isn't bricked..
4 take out the battery and insert again and press volume down button for flashmode and flash stock ics
5 flash boot.img from kernel zip file in FASTBOOT MODE.. If you're not sure how to do that there's a guide available in forum.. Search for it
6 then reboot to recovery, do wipes, then flash the Rom...
7 reboot twice
8 second reboot takes 10 mins don't freak out its normal
9 enjoy

the command for fastboot is
fastboot flash boot boot.img
the boot.img file must be in same folder as fastboot
there are two methods :
i recommend second method..
1. using command prompt
procedure - download adb and fastboot drivers.. extract them anywhere in pc.. copy the boot.img file to that extracted folder (i cant find the thread which contains the link for the drivers but u can definitely get it by google-ing it)
press and hold shift and right click..
select open command window here
switch off your phone
hold vol up key on ur phone and connect it to pc.. (blue led will come up)
then pass the command in command prompt as - fastboot flash boot boot.img
or
2 using flashtool
open flashtool
switch off your phone
hold vol up key on ur phone and connect it to pc.. u'll see in the flashtool that - device connected in fastboot mode
then clickon flash button and select fastboot
click on select kernel to flash and select boot.img which u extracted from kernel file..
Do these steps quickly.. fastboot mode automatically shuts down after 15-20 seconds and ur phone will start charging itself..
after flashing jb kernel reboot in recovery and then follow next steps
Enjoyy
reboot loop
im in a bootloop with a phantom kernel and i didnt place the rom in the phone storage, the telephone is rebooting again and again. i can acces to the CWM but i don't know how i can transplant the rom now :crying: thanks

Thanks a lot , its done , just bit USB port issue , CWM is installed now I am trying to do insertcoin rom on this one. Will let you know how it goes ...
Great!
Im getting the same error message.
It also wont let me unlock the bootloader on the HTC website. Is the anyway you can help me out -- Child's Play-- It says an error after i submit my token i have no clue and its very important to that i get root lol if you know what i mean . All my drivers are updated everything is correct. Could it possibly be because i downloaded a command prompt , only because my windows xp doesnt pop up with a command line option when i shift+right click. PLEASE i really need help im so frustrated and i dont give up lol. thanks guys
Make sure you copy only the code, not the empty space. Token doesn't like the empty space

HARD BRICKED ! Redmi note 3 (sd)

HELP ! HELP ! HELP !
hard bricked by flashing a miui rom from twrp without deleting the emmc file :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
i can only go to fastboot , no recovery , miui logo for 3 seconds
please someone help me !!! :crying::crying:
will the test point work ?
Edit :-
Thank you all , i managed to unbtick using test point .!!
I know enough to tell you that I'd you can get fastboot yo work, its not bricked. Honestly I don't own the device. I own lg g3. And it might be different for this device but you can try pushing recovery from fasyboot mode using your PC. You might wanna google how to tbh and ask around ppl with similar device if possible. Pushing through fastboot/adb is most common so pushing recovery will format recovery partition and install/push new one. That will get you working recovery. (I hope). Happy flashing.
In fastboot check if bootloader is locked by running the device info command... It is not locked you have hopes... Use fastboot to flash fastboot rom package with modified emmc file and modded image...
Its locked
Only way is to do test point method or take it to a service center

"BUT DONT FLASH MIUI ROM USING TWRP IF YOU UNLOCKED THE BOOTLOADER UNOFFICIALY"
If bootloader is unlocked officially then can we flash any MIUI recovery ROM using TWRP without need of modifying Recovery ROM (deleting bootloader file , patch boot.img) ? can we switch to any MIUI ROM then easily ?

Oh Lol , have asked many people but none of them are sure about this .. but i have asked from mi chat they said once bootloader is unlocked you can't lock it back by flashing MIUI roms as it's security feature . SO we can say unofficial method is problem if you like to switch to between ROM's but official one will not create any problems ..still not sure though have to ask who have done through Official method.

The solution:
1. Press and hold VolUp+VolDown+Power (all 3 buttons) at the same time.
2. The MI logo will appear for some time, and then disappear, don't release the buttons.
3. The MI logo will then appear briefly, and then disappear. Now release all 3 buttons.
4. Connect the phone to PC, and then proceed to use MiFlash as usual.

4- Reboot and the rom will boot successfully without any bootloop.
I wish that i had helped you.

I'm searching a way to recover my forever-looping phone. I had the Android M, got the horribel ideia of using kingroot via PC and now the phone does not go to the OS. I've tried everything, I´m gonna try installing all drivers again (windows 10). Anyway, What can I do since I dont have recovery mode ?
Plus, when I try to flash a fresh rom, I get this;

Ok bro. just come down we can solve it by two ways:
The first one by unlocking your bootloader then install recovery then flash a new rom through recovery.
The second way is to keep the bootloader locked and recover your phone by using flashtool and any ftf for xperia z2
So which way from the two ways you want to solve your phone by it?

The phone now iwont even loop. It's stucked in the SONY logo. -_-
Hi thanks, I found the way, now what I need is how to root, I've tried with dual recovery, but send me error, and what I managed to do it is with kingroot, then with dual recovery and only then is installed or I have done something wrong? thanks again

If the bootloader unlocked so you can easily flash recovery by using fastboot commands by using these steps:
1- download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot from this link: https://mega.nz/#!7942XJjI!9gurv7k3PVVFT8VViDbkg_sUiRTiDPeArhwjXsG XB9c
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- 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)

9- when the phone reboot and the sony logo appear keep pressing the volume up and down until the twrp recovery opens
10- That is it.. you can from it wipe data, system, cache, dalivk cache and flash any rom you want

If the bootloader unlocked so you can easily flash recovery by using fastboot commands by using these steps:
1- download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot from this link: https://mega.nz/#!7942XJjI!9gurv7k3PVVFT8VViDbkg_sUiRTiDPeArhwjXsG XB9c
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- 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)
6- 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.
7- In the command window write this command exactly: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img

Try to make hard reset by press and hold volume up button and press and hold the power button too until the mobile vibrates 3 times then wait for 10 seconds and try to power on the phone again normally and tell me if the sony logo has
OR wait
I knew the solution and i will write it now

No no bro, you can enter recovery in marshmallow but instead of keep pressing on volume up as in lollipop to enter the recovery, in marshmallow you have to keep pressing on volume down to enter the recovery when you reboot your phone and the sony logo appears
So try and tell me
