I have been using my Xperia Z2 for over 2 years with no major issue. Today it suddenly started freezing, even on start up. After restarting the phone for 20+ times for the entire day, I have decided to run a factory reset, but after the reset my Xperia Z2 only load pass the start up Sony logo and Android logo screen and stuck in the blue wavy screen for like 5-10 min then reboot itself again until the blue wavy screen and restart again in an endless loop.
I did not flash any rom or recovery on my Xperia Z2, it is purely stock rom from Sony, with no root. Any one can please give me a hint on how to revive my Xperia Z2 again?

Use flashtool by androxyde and flash the latest .FTF of your region onto your Z2, afterwards it should be good to go.

I am new to this, but do I need to unlock my bootloader before I can flash the stock rom?
No, it should work right away. Be sure to install the right drivers, that's all.

Yes I simply flash the lastest firmware of my Z2 in my region and the phone us back to life once again! It took me a while since it's my first time flashing with a Sony phone but it's a pretty simple process.

Disconnect the phone, prepare the bundle for flashing on pc, press Vol- when prompt to reconnect your phone.
Or use v0.9.18.6

I rooted my xperia mini pro with zergrush method. I changed my screen density, my boot animation and font. My phone's been fine until now. I restored my stock boot animation and dpi. Rebooted and good. Then I changed my font back to normal and while rebooting it keeps stopping at the first 'sony ericsson' then went off again and continued going like this. I tried hard reset(power+back+menu) but could not. Is there any other way?

That one called boot loop,it's look like the font changing was the cause. If you have installed cwm recovery, make backup before playing with the system. Incase something goes wrong just restore from the backup.

Thanks a lot guys, see ya
I bought a couple of faulty phones off eBay with the hope of fixing them.
I have an Xperia Ray st18a that gets stuck on the Sony boot screen.
I can go into flash mode and tried updating. it appeared to go ok, no errors, but still stuck on boot logo.
I can't get into fastboot. The LED turns green and a battery icon appears on the screen for a moment. The only device that shows up in device manager at this point is a drive. I tried updating the driver to the one provided on the various fastboot threads here, but it says it's not for this device.
I suspect it's not getting into fastboot mode.
I've tried flashing stock roms using flashtool and they seem to flash ok, but still get stuck on boot logo.
Any ideas of what I can try?

But you are sure you installed drivers from flashtool folder -> drivers ? Cause normally it should work. Or the bootloader is locked and it's another problem...
To get fastboot working you must have sdk tools and here is the modified android_winusb file, that xperia devices are supported by fastboot. Maybe look there
Yea, done all that. It looks like this one has a locked bootloader and is SIM locked, so fastboot is disabled. So there's no way for me to get to fastboot as I can't get past the boot screen

Maybe you could try here Turning the brick into a smartphone.
But if it boots up until the screen appears it shouldn't b bricked...

I don't know excactly, but pc companion -> support zone -> I don't know. There is an option for repairing, don't know what it does, maybe give it a shot
But I think it'll just reinstall the stock rom again, cause you start with your phone plugged off and then you have to plug it in in flashmode, so I think it's like flashtool...
Just tried PC Companion. It updated the firmware no problem, but still getting stuck on boot screen

Sorry, I ended up selling the phone as it was bricked and unable to be revived.
I have the same problem. I'm a noob, so please bear with me =). I was able to root the st18. It came with a gingerbread. I wanted to try and upgrade it so I flashed ST18i_4.0.4_T.ftf, got stuck on the start screen. It showed the new Sony logo then the sony ericsson logo then loops. I can go to recovery, however I'm stuck (yes, noob me). I have another st18 - can I use it to fix the other? If any can direct me how to fix it, I will be eternally grateful. =)

Try a repair with SEUS or PC Companion first to get you back on stock. If the phone works like that, it may have been a problem with the ROM. Maybe a corrupted download or something like that.

If you made a backup before you flashed the custom ROM you can install xRecovery or CWM again and do an advanced restore and choose data to get your data back Making backups is always recommended ofcourse.

have you checked if fastboot and flashmode work ??? if they do try flashing because I think the part you changed have some kind of a serial code that the software installed doesn't recognize, and so fails to boot, so you have to flash a new ROM and reset the saved serials
