My z5 compact don't start after installing TWRP - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I tried this morning to install a custom ROM for my sony xperia z5 compact. Unfortunately, it remains crashing on the "Sony" screen
I unlocked the bootloader via the official link https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/. Until then no worries, everything worked well.
Then I wanted to install a TWRP recovery via this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/twrp-3-1-0-z5-z5c-z5p-t3571050
I was able to flash it without worries but when restarting, TWRP asked me if I wanted to install the app, I put OK and from there, impossible to start my phone. "always stuck on Sony screen".
this is my config : E5823 / 32.4.A.1.54
I want just to start my phone. Is there possible to put a stock version? thanks
This is very urgent to resolve it unfortunately
Thanks for your help

you can close this subject, problem solved. Thanks

Wanna share how you fixed it?

Yes sure,
I flashed my recovery with the TWRP 3.1.1 posted before with the command "fastboot flash recovery {name_of_file.bin}" and I did a flash of the boot with the good version of boot with the commande "fastboot flash boot {name_of_file.bin}.
I founded the good boot at this address for my version : https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/32-4-1-54-coming-t3685995

Change of custom kernel and installation of new recovery

Hi xda!
I have a Z5C and i was tired of sonys laggy version of Android so I decided to install zombie kernel with twrp as backup.
The kernel works brilliant but I can only boot to recovery with help from fastboot. I would like to be able to boot to recovery directly from my phone without the use of fastboot/PC..
I also have a z4 tablet with Androplus kernel with twrp recovery.. And I am able to boot directly from the tablet to recovery.
So I decided to install Androplus and twrp for my z5c. I tried to install twrp through twrp and it looked like it was installed... However still not able to boot to recovery without fastboot. Then I tried to install with fastboot and I got an error - picture attached.
When I look under "about phone" the phone tells me that I'm still using the old zombiekernel??
How do I get Androplus kernel and working twrp installed on my z5c?
Thanks in advance

To boot to recovery in the z5c you gotta pudg the volume up while booting over and over until you see the notification LED go red-yellow-orange
Once you're in recovery you could restore your old kernal if you made s bsckup
I know... But that is not working. The only way i can get it to boot is with fastboot. What to do?

Try flash tool to push anew kernel maybe.I've never done it but from what j have read, download your firmware from xperia firmware and use flash tool to only flash kernel.
You need to use fastboot to flash the boot.img to the phone and then do the same for recovery.img. It will then work with androplus kernel and twrp.
Thats my setup currently.

Sorry to resurect this old thread. Can you or anyone provide a boot.img or how to go about creating one? I am in same situation (stuck at boot screen) and only have access to fastboot. Thanks.
For which version of rom? I can give you 32.0.A.200 boot.img and twrp recovery.
Are you sure you're clicking volume up when booting? It doesn't work when you hold the volume up button down.
If y'all go to the twrp thread there is a modified boot.IMG that allows booting to recovery now.

Sony z2 can't access twrp or any kind of recovery mode that was installed

Hello,
I have a sony z2 D6503 android 6.0.1 (flash the 6.0.1 so i can force it to update) bootloader unlocked and previusly install xzdualrecovery (for the 6.0.1 force update),
now the after i year from when i install the 6.0.1 i didn't need to access recovery mode, until 1 week ago when i wanted to flash with resurrection remix 7.1.2 nougat, so i try first to access to twrp by hardware button, nothing happen (neither the led notification light turn pink so i can't access to recovery).
Then i try to flash again twrp or any different recovery from adb, and i try again either from adb and manually to access to recovery, and nothing again.
So i install kingroot, root the phone and use quick boot or other app so i can access to recovery from them, and nothing again.
So after that i factory reset the phone (to 6.0.1 because is the only available on my phone since the time that i flash it) and did again evey single step that i mention before.
I read every thread, post forum for everything, adb problem , bootloader, twrp, recovery and other but neither of them help.
In the end i was force to open a thread here so maybe you can help me.
Phone info: SONY Z2 D6503 android 6.0.1 build: 23.5.A.0.570

Can't update twrp? Or find a cwm download for an Xperia z3 tablet compact Wi-fi

Ok so Let me go through the whole story. I wanted to root my Xperia z3 tablet compact SPG611 and I was being a bit of a noob so I opened the bootloader and I was so eager so I get on to rooting as I did it before on my Xperia z3 but on that I dropped it and it broke sooo... but yeah I went to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3...ment/advanced-stock-kernel-twrp-root-t2959720 and flashed this onto my tablet. But I had 2 problems I was in a boot loop but I was able to go to recovery and the twrp is at v2.7.1.0 so my clever self decided to wipe everything, I mean everything off of the tablet and I didn't back up. This meant that I had no os installed and I can't download a custom rom because there is always a problem, mainly cannot execute updater-binary when I flash paranoid. Also when I flash a newer version of twrp through fast boot it says finished okay but doesn't update on my tablet.
So I'm basically asking has anyone either got a way of updating twrp or a download for another recovery and has anyone got either a stock rom or a custom rom that they dowloaded on a Xperia z3 tablet compact SPG611 that actually worked.
Sorry for the long issue but can someone please help it would be the most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I always embed both twrp, SuperSU and Xposed Framework inside the kernel with the Rootkernel script. The only downside is that you have to use this procedure when updating Xposed and SuperSU.
After you created the patched kernel, just flash the kernel with fastboot. After that you have twrp (and SuperSU and Xposed if you included those).

I really need help

Hi, today I was more than seven hours on PCr and tried this....unsuccessfully... I'm really desperate
I have:
-Xperia Z2 (D6503)
-Android 6.0.1
-newest firmware 23.5.A.1.291
-UNlocked bootloader
I am trying to install root, twrp recovery and custom ROM ( specifically this ROM ). But i cannot enter to the recovery mode...
Official twrp-3.0.2-0 succesfully flashed in fastboot but when i try command "fastboot reboot recovery" the mobile only load android and turns on normally... the combination hardware buttons also do not work.
The next question is, What is a kernel ? I have successfully installed this kernel .... Could this be the reason why I can't load the recover mode?
Please help me, I don't know what to do anymore :crying: all I want is root and custom rom
EDIT: okay, i successfully root phone and finally i have access to recovery mode (TWRP 3.0.2-0) by THIS TUTORIAL now i need help with installing the custom ROM step-by-step because if I turn something wrong and phone will be bricked again, I guess I'll kill myself xD so What is next step for install custom ROM please ? Can I just download THIS, install the zip in TWRP and that´s all ???
Yup you can install it by recovery steps:

before you do this you should backup all your important data
1-wipe data factory reset
2- wipe cache
3- install zip rom
4- download google apps and install it by recovery it should be a zip file
5-repot system and enjoy
the recovery is like twrp or cwm it's not a kernel
there is 2 type of kernel :
1-kernel itself
2-kernel with merged recovery
about the kernel and recovery, there is deference the kernel is very important for system to work it connects between the hardware and the software and every operating system has its own kernel but here in android they sometimes merge kernel with recovery but when you flash-kernel or recovery every one replace each other be careful and know that, don't worry you won't brick something in the near future when you will install custom ROMs you will notice that.
if you need any help you can ask me

Z5 Campact can't boot and flash

I bought a SONY Z5Campact docomo mod (SO-02H) and used the qUnlockTool to change Bootloader unlock allowed "NO" to "YES" , then i started the FLASHING
at first , I flashed the TWRP 3.6.0 from XDA and the last released version of LineageOS from official website for flash , and boot the phone
NOW , THE TROUBLE HAPPENED , It can't boot now !!! however time goes , boot animation is LOOPING
in FLASHTOOL , I can't flash any ROM whichever I choosed the SO-02H or E5802 or E5823
Also I tried the Sony official flash tool "EMMA" , now it shows my phone is not SO-02H , it changed to the E5823 !!!
It says I can make a reset for this phone and downloaded the matched factory reset stock ROM to flash ,
BUT!!!!
it always got a failed result
Now I can't flash this phone with any flash tool (Flash Tool , newflasher , EMMA) and can't boot , How can I get the RESET/FLASH/REPAIR of this phone
anyone knows?

Perform a bootloader relock using flashtool,
Why not flash the stock rom?
In any case, the custom rom does not work properly on the so-02h.
Maybe you will continue to use android 6.
The stock rom is not comfortabal to use for me. so i thought if i flash a custom ROMs, it will be more battery saving and smoothly
I had flashed every phone that i bought since i start using android phone with Android 2.3, if without flash a magisk/super/xposed and greenify, the Chinese apps will **** your RAM and memory
Now i can flash recovery by fastboot command and flash any rom by TWRP, even i can boot to bootanimation, but just can't boot to system and flash with flashtool/newflasher.etc.

I think that the global ftf can be flashed with Docomo Xperia up to about Z4.
