Installing "boot.img" through ADB (CMD) vs Flashtool - Sony Xperia M4 Aqua

Hi, i'm getting a confusion regarding installing "boot.img" on our Xperia M4. Does anyone know if installing "boot.img" through ADB wil be the same as installing "boot.img" through flashtool.. if no, can someone explain the process of ADB in the comments.. thank you..
I didn't get the chance to encounter installing thorugh ADB because my last rooted phone (live with walkman) doesn't need ADB to install kernel and custom rom.. I just used flashtool to flash kernel (boot.img) ..
i really appreciate any comments and help you'll gonna give..

[Q] XP cant install custom rom per cwm because of bootloop

Hi,
i have my XP rooted per 1 click from Bin4ry , bootloader unlocked, busybox app installed.
I tried to get CWM on the XP with the command promt und kernel.elf
I works and i can enter cwm. Unforntunaly the phone then gets into bootloop and i have to flash the original rom per flashtool to get the xperia P working again.
What am i doing wrong? I would like to install the Manav miui rom but i is impossible to me. When i get into cwm and try to flash the zip there i seems to work. Unfortunally the XP is after reboot stuck in bootloop.
What iam doing wrong?
It would be great if someone could help me. Maybe i missed a tutorial.
Thanks a lot.
Regards David

CWM recovery is included in kernel [in Xperia devices], so if you want a cwm, just flash a custom kernel (through flashtool).
consider that the kernel must be compatible with your ROM
If I can remember well there was a script written in shell to install CWM from Linux, just open the terminal and change to the directory where CWM files are and type:
Code:
sudo su
source install.sh
BTW, wrong section

It's simply. You must flash boot.img or kernel.elf.
First install fastboot (on Ubuntu 13.10)
sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot.
Second move boot.img or kernel.elf in home.
Open terminal:
sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img (or kernel.elf).
It's the best way
Maybe he has locked bootloader

thanks guys...
but flashing boot.img from a custom rom using flashtool is more convinient for me...
thanks to you all...

Which tutorial are you following to do this?
and Which Kernel?
+ Did you unlocked Bootloader & Root your device? (and all process was successful)
+ When you boot ur device can adb recognize ur device? (Dev Option > USB debuggin)

[Z2 HELP]Get my Z2 back to life

Ok, I did something stupid, I accidently installed a recovery in my boot section, via the TWRP app.
So the Z2 won't boot.
I have flashtool, adb and fastboot working.
Flashtool isnt working properly somehow, because I cannot download and flash a ftf file I downloaded.
I was on this ROM when I did the stupid thing.
I've tried a lot, but cannot seem to get anything running.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Connect phone in fast boot mode
Install correct adb drivers
Flash any correct ftf for your device
@Thieuke
Thanks MJ999
I got the flashtool working. Flashed a flashable .575 ftf and it boots now.
Thanks for participating!
