my problem is that I cannot get into flash mode with flashtool (USB debugging problems) and I have android v2.3.4 & Kernel 2.6.32.9, root acces, but bootloader is not unlocked.
from what I read I need stock firmware in order to install CMW. so what other possibilities do I have apart from flashtool?
EDIT: sorry wrong forum, move to general please. thanks!
edit²: solved, flashtool works now
May be you can try THIS to install CMW. But i'm not you will be able to flash roms with it without unlocking bootloader. Try at your own risk. I could install CMW on my ST15i but i needed it only to apply zipped UOT themes and it worked.
hi all, I am a beginner in android.
I was trying to flash a custom kernel and rom for my Mini pro by following the tutorial thread. I rooted my Mini pro and unlock the bootloader. Busybox and cwm-auto installer were also installed.
However, when I tried to install kernel by fastboot and result said the device is not rooted. I tried again with flashtool but result was just the same. I had already rooted my device several times and therefore I dont understand where the problem is.
Please help. Thanks for your answers first:victory:
Did you place your phone in fastboot mode(blue LED)?
Which way did you unlock your bootloader?
Rooting can't affect the kernel installation at all. Doesn't matter if you are rooted or not, it should work anyways.
For use flashtools to update kernel you must open your boot loader and flash it easy, kernel update no need to root your device. Because you try update in fastboot or flash mood .
I think your problem is other things example boot loader not opened or ...

Hello to all. I made unlocking the bootloader and installed ROOT permissions and flashed the kernel with the toolkit. Everything went correctly, when everything was ready to install the rom I did a cleaning device with the old OS and then later wanted to add the rom to install from the TWRP but now the pc will not let me enter the VIPER in SD and therefore not allow me to install any OS ... The pc I riconsce queindi the device and does not allow me to copy to sdcard the ROM!
How do I transfer the rom I have on my PC in my phone?
When I enter the TWRP. The computer tries to install the drivers but without success. Why is that?
I'm desperate ... Some help?
AW: Problemi installing ROM
Reinstall the drivers on your PC.
Then flash the stock recovery and relock the bootloader.
After that you use the RUU for your device to get totally back to stock.
Now you can start the process new....open your bootloader, flash custom recovery, get root and so on.....but don't clean your sd-card after you put the Rom on it

I just installed Sony stock .575. The phone has unlocked bootloader but no recovery. How do I get root?
I found these instructions but they're long and complicated http://techbeasts.com/root-xperia-z2-on-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-23-5-a-0-570-and-install-twrp/
first of all run this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3839417&d=1470917543 by extracting it and running install.bat for recovery and when the device boots into recovery flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3839418&d=1470917649 your device will now have root and recovery both. dont forget to enable usb debugging on phone

Thanks. I got impatient though and followed the long way which involved flashing kitkat, rooting, installing recovery, flashing lollipop then flashing marshmallow this way seems much simpler.
So, I kind of rooted my device using Kingo Root and it wasn't successful (I guess). So, in fastboot mode, I tried OEM unlock and it didn't work too; but anyway, I flashed TWRP recovery into my phone and through that I tried to install CM 13,14 custom ROMs which was completely unsuccessful. It doesn't allow me to install any ROM. And says that root privilege is lost. And now, all that I have access to is a phone stuck in bootloop and TWRP which doesn't allow me anything to do because apparently root access is lost. :crying:
I tried every method of flashing via YGDP tool and it is stuck at 'entering download mode'. I have installed different drivers over and again to fix as suggested by different threads but still, it's the same. [Windows 8.1] . And is there any other tool to flash this same stock ROM or better, can I get root access again in a bricked device and install a custom ROM any way?:fingers-crossed:
I also have access to ADB sideload via TWRP, so can I get stock ROM in .zip format. So far, I can only find it in .CPB format; maybe I can use .zip stock ROM via ADB sideload to flash it. Please help if any of this is possible.
*Apology for such a long question but I think you guys must know everything in order to provide me with a fix*
It's fixed.

Its fixed now, I assume it was because of the ROM file being downloaded through chrome in phone, I downloaded ROM and GApps in PC and flashed through TWRP and bam! Its back on:laugh:
TWRP - 2.4.4
ROM - Resurrection Remix 5.7.2
Thanks anyways!
