you should try different firmware files as yours might be corrupted, try a43 firmware file and try to update from there on with locked bootloader, and after update use format data option in recovery.
also try calling your service center, they might be able to help
and if nothing works you can always go back to custom roms..

Hi,
As we all know unless we downgrade and stuff, or install custom recoveries (which require some hackeries) we can't root the latest firmware.
I came across this method: http://whiteboard.ping.se/Android/Rooting
It uses the original boot.img and edits it then using fastboot it flashes it with the su binaries and security turned off.
Would this work on our Xperia?
Thanks
Probably, but you'd need to unlock your bootloader...
That kind of defeats the purpose. I'm trying to not do that
I want to be able to install OTA updates and support.
You can alway relock back once rooted. By that, you can OTA update safely and keep rooting

Ok so if I follow that guide to get root, unlock bootloader, flash the new boot, and relock bootloader, I will be able to install OTA?
Won't that brick my device since I have a modified boot.img?
In order to relock the bootloader you must firdt change back to a stock kernel, otherwise you will brick the phone, wich luckily is recoverable...
Even if yo relock on custom kernel, you will also can enter in fastboot mode to flash stock one

So today I think I really messed up I will tell you the run down. I first put on twrp and then flashed a custom rom. After that the rom wasn't working properly so I tried to revert back to stock without a backup (I know I am dumb ). After reverting back to stock unsuccessfully I locked the bootloader not knowing that it wouldn't let me launch into the already installed custom software's so now I am stuck in download mode not able to unlock bootloader for some reason and not able to access the rom and the recovery. Any help would be very appreciated. Have I really bricked my phone?
can't you just run an RUU since your bootloader is relocked?
Hello I recently updated my Xperia x dual to. 238 after that I flashed custom kernel with root and ta partition fix and flashed twrp now I got notification for a new update I think it's something like. 344 so is there anyway I can flash the stock kernel and recovery back and relock the bootloader and continue updating my phone to the latest update? I know I will lose all the data after relocking my phone but I just want to update it without flashing the firmware from the beginning anyhelp will be much appreciated

Frankly there is no such need because if you relock your bootloader , the next update will void your rooting rights and every-time you will have to unlock anyways ! see this post!

Relocking bootloader is not recommended. It doesn't give consistent results. Sometimes people brick their devices. If you really want to relock, consider visiting your nearby service centre.
However I see no reason to relock the bootloader. Realme does provide warranty to unlocked phones and you can still install the latest updates with an unlocked bootloader.
thanks. But the reason behind relocking bootloader is to run payment apps like google pay. It doesn't run on unlocked bl :silly:

I don't think you are correct about that. I have used Google Pay earlier with cRDroid custom ROM using Magisk. Later I had reverted back to the stock ROM. I still use Google Pay and all other apps.
There is no app which doesn't run on the stock ROM due to an unlocked bootloader. Every payment app works. However, there can be issues with custom ROMs. So I don't think you need to relock the bootloader.
i followed https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-3-pro/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-t3938845 and flashed charlie decryption and lockscreen aint working..i flashed new rom zip through twrp bt didnt work...flashed stock recovery...and then flashed .ozip from there but shows installation failed....what to do m stuck in corona..cant go to service center plz help
Hi everyone, I've just got a G-900T running 5.1.1 yesterday. This phone is unlocked, but I am not sure what method did the former user use to unlock. I want to install another ROM (maybe 6.0.1 firmware or other custom ROM), but I am afraid that it will be carrier-locked again, can anyone confirm this for me? Thanks for the help.
To be locked again, you'll have to lock it from developer options, which is not available on AOSP ROMs, and hidden from Stock-based ones. You may consider yourself safe.
There are two types of locking - 1) carrier, and 2) Boot loader. To flash a custom ROM, the boot loader has to be unlocked. That would have been the case if it had a custom ROM installed when you bought it. But if it has a stock ROM, you will have to check the security lock level (About Device) to confirm that the security level is low enough to allow unlocking the boot loader. Otherwise, you may brick your phone.
