Bootloader needs to be unlocked to run a custom kernel, just the fact the phone is [sim] unlocked is not enough.
I was going to suggest to flash the doomkernel from the GPe thread, if you had unlocked the bootloader and backed up the TA

Yes the GPe kernel should boot the rom on a c6833. I'm not sure why the rom wont boot on the stock kernel.

pls help
now i finally knew why my phone is dead. i installed custom rom withour unlocking bootloader.
I want to go back to stock firmware but my volume down rocker is broken so i cannot turn my device into flashmode,
please help me what to do cos i am noob:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Hit the power button and vol up together and wait until the device vibrates 3 times. Doing it you will force it to shutdown completely. Now go ahead and get into flash mode.

I cant think of a way to get a non booted ZU into flashmode
I do have one thought on how to fix this - flash a system partition dump in fastboot, It will take me a little time to make this for you
Edit:
I have to charge the c6802 up as it is flat then flash a FTF and extract the files and test, all while the wife if using the PC (she has 5 days left untill she has finished a double degree, and a separate research project on the go - I may not get the PC for a few hours)
It looks like fastboot won't open a full 2.3 GB system dump, so there goes that idea
Do you have any warranty on the device? if so the steps below will void you warranty - if you haven't already. It will also wipe all data and the DRM keys
Have you flashed any kernel/boot.img? if so then do the last steps (5, 6 & 7) as well to get on a kernel compatible with the GPe ROM
You will need the fastboot drivers installed (should be installed with flashtool) and you will need adb/fastboot (should be in the flashtool folder)
Get your unlock code from Sony's dev site, you will need the IMEI # in the tag in the sim bay
Open a command line in the flashtool folder that has adb and fastboot .exe files
Enter this command:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock <unlock_code_from_sony>
Download either scrubber's kernel or DooMLoRD's GPe kernel
Flash boot.img with (if not called boot.img change command below to match):
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Thank you guys for your help and i am really sorry for flooding and spamming the entire zu thread.
This is my first time to root (sony way) and own a sony mobile, i was a samsung user before and ive never experienced this kind of horrible situation in flashing roms. I just bought my phone 7 months a go and i was so worried. If my Volume (-) rocker wasnt broken i wouldnt experience this nightmare, but i was hoping maybe someone knows how to turn the phone into flashmode without pressing the volume(-), unfortunately nobody knows.
I brought my mobile to sony service center and i hope they can fix it as i told them my software broke down and i need them to flash to stock firmware.
Edit:
i just saw my first post and it say fastboot mode! LOL sorry again.
i have no problem with the fastboot mode. I was stucked at FLASHMODE!
volume (-) is broken!
please help me i cant root my device sony xperia z2( D6503 ) and i cant boot into recovery mode
i tried many methods to root my device and i cant do this any one can help me and i cant boot into recovery
i flashed new stock room with flash tools now i have a lollipop 23.1.A.0.690
i have attached a photo of my problem
sorry for bad english
1) Completely and utterly wrong section, this is Original Development. This is a question, it belongs in the Q&A.
2) You cannot use current root exploits to root lollipop. You either have to downgrade to kitkat, root that, flash locked bootloader recovery, and then install a pre-rooted ROM through recovery. Or you can unlock your bootloader, flash a custom kernel with Recovery, flash the SU zip in recovery and then you're good to go. Be warned that you WILL void your warranty if you unlock your bootloader, you will also lose your DRM keys and some functions (although lost functions are debatable). The first method (downgrade) is preferable.

You have to flash a custom kernel what has a recovery in. For example, AndroPlus v50+. And you do realise that now you have voided your warranty and lost your DRM keys? I did explain that in my other post.

If your drm-keys are intact, your bootloader probably isn't unlocked.
You may check if you go to caller app, push *#*#7378423#*#*-service info-configuration. what is written under rooting status?

Well my friend, then you should be good to go download kernel with recovery.
unpack kernel zip and find the boot.img
Use flashtool, connect your device in fastboot mode.
under flash symbol, select fastboot mode. Then choose: select kernel to flash.
select boot.img wich you just unpacked.... done

You can use an app called "root check" to verify root.

You should probably use a kernel for 690 firmware if you are on lollipop rom. andopluskernel works great. also with twrp. use v50 or higher.

That's probably b'coz it still isn't flashed.
Install MiPc suit and connect once with USB debugging on so that all the drivers do get installed correctly then
When using adb first type adb devices and look for your device to be sure that the device is connected correctly.
Which Twrp are you trying to flash?

It's completely depended on the ROM. Some of 'em relock bootloader, other don't (same for OTA updates).
ok thanks for your help i have successfully unlocked bootloader and install twrp as well rooted thank you
Tested only in Xperia M4 Aqua E2303 with firmware 26.3.A.1.33.
Root/ SuperSU 2.78
1. download this boot.img: http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/smp1HMAj/file.html
2. Copy into the adb folder.
3. Boot into fastboot mode, then type in adb shell:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img
TWRP v3.0.2.0
1. Download this recovery.img:http://www82.zippyshare.com/v/xHcjnORE/file.html
Credits toiSpecialist
2. Copy into the adb folder.
3. Boot into fastboot mode, then type in adb shell:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Unplug and rboot your device.
Now you have ROOT with SuperSU 2.78 with TWRP Recovery
P.S: you need UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER
I modded and repacked my "boot.img" file using this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/development/root-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605

Hello,
To boot into recovery mode :
1) Power off your phone
2) Power on your phone using power button + volume down button at the same time, until you see the "SONY" logo.
Then release both and wait until recovery loads.

Thanks!
sorry for my english
Hi,
thanks for the work, i unlock my phone and then i flash boot.img -> a can get access to root.
i'v installed TWRP, but i think it's too many options for me, reflash boot.img.
Jarix, for root, you only need to flash boot.img

Please, boot for e2306? Thanks
