Hi,
using x8 ( 11W07 ),

- Unlock bootloader, success
- Flashtool; success
- Wipe data, etc, dalkiv
- Install ROM & Gapps...

Everything goes smoothly except currently stuck on the 'android' logo loading screen.

Yeah, this is a soft brick.
Use Flashtool to unbrick your phone.
Maybe u flashed wrong kernel. Try again.
Have you formatted /system, /data and /cache in recovery before installation?
If not, go to recovery -> mounts and storage, format /system, /data and /cache and then install the ROM and GApps.

You don't need to be go to recovery to use flashtool.
Install PCC.
Download and install flashtool and install drivers in the drivers folder.
Download stock rom, place it in firmwares folder.
Run flashtool and follow the instructions there.

Try to revert to stock rom and kernel
Refer to this thread
i always have this problem (stauck on kernel logo) when i flash the rom: i just remove the battery for 10s and then reboot . :good::good:
The OP's problem is that you can't go directly from stock kernel to JB.
First you must flash another custom kernel.. Try alfsV08a CM7 or GDX.
Using it you may format your phone correctly.
Then only may you install the JB kernel then rom.

well i read the forums but i didnt discover the same problem as me ...so again is the stock x8 rom not supposed to work after i flash the kenrel or am i doing something wrong?(ican get to cwm).MOreover,do i have to load the custom rom file first,then flash the kernel,then flash the loaded rom?
dude, flash nAa v10. after you flash it, the kernel logo will appear followed by the battery sign.
press power button, the phone will boot and the kernel logo will appear.
you will be sent do CWM Menu.
if you have a compatible ROM for nAa kernel, do a full wipe and reboot and see if the ROM boots successfully.
if you dont have a compatible ROM, do a full wipe, install CM 2.1.8 and then reboot.
U have to unlock bootloader first before flashing kernel,
this is the step (with stock kernel and rom installed and root) :
- unlock bootloader
- flash kernel
- enter cwm
- wipe data
- install custom rom
- wipe data again
- restart system
and ur good to go

You cant load stock rom with a custom kernel. Just flash GingerDx Rom and you should be fine. Flash the kernel first using the flash tool, then flash the rom using CWM and then turn on the phone

Here is a newbie guide to unlock the bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436924&page=2
After you unlocked BL you can flash the kernel with flashtool (with the latest one)
-Don't forget to copy you're rom to SDcard!
When the nAa logo appears hit the back button and you're in cmw menu.
full wipe->instal custom rom-> reboot your phone !
first flash your kernel and then install custom rom...
As it says above, I just installed GingerZaraki on my X8 and now it's stuck in a bootloop on the Alfs-8 kernel logo screen. I've tried reinstalling Zaraki from the CWM recovery menu to no avail.
You didn't follow the instructions!
Here:
Instructions :
1. Download the ROM
2. Place in in your SD Card
3. Flash alfs v08a/v09a for CM7 (v08a recommended)
4. Reboot into CWM, full wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and wipe battery stats
5. Flash the ROM
6. Reboot and enjoy

I just tried again by following the instructions, still the same problem. I even tried flashing the kernel again using flashtool. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
I've got alfs 8a installed.
Help!
Remove SD card on first boot then after it's completely booted, insert the SD... Reboot... It works.

Yes, just tried everything again, still stuck on boot loop. It get's to the kernel screen and stops, then after a while the green LED blinks and it restarts and then it carries on with the same thing again and again.
EDIT: Haven't tried formatting /system yet, will try it now.
EDIT 2: That hasn't worked either.

the same for me...tryed to install v08 -> bootloop, tryed to install v06 -> bootloop, reflashed kernel -> bootloop, flashed nAa-14 and v06 -> booted, but laggy/stuck in setup-wizard, flashed alfs 08a ->bootloop...
so i've gone back to GDX...
I think I've found the solution here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1345902&page=3
So I hope it'll work now.
Woohoooo!!! I was finally able to install GingerZaraki after trying from scratch. I had to install stock ROM again, 015 baseband again, CWM recovery using X8 toolbox, alfs v8a kernel and then GingerZaraki, making sure to follow the instructions in the ROM's thread carefully. Thanks to everyone for their help.

sounds like a kernel issue.
Code:
Locked bootloader
1. Root with Bin4ry's method(*)
2. install CWM for locked bootloaders.(*)
3. Go to recovery, wipe cache & dalvik-cache
4. Flash ROM
5. Flash kernel .140 (if you haven't already)
6. Reboot.
7. When CWM asks "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?", answer "No".
8. Enjoy
(*) skip these steps if you're already on a custom ROM with CWM recovery or unlocked bootlader.
Are you sure you did all these?

This one..., im just connecting xperia t with usb debugg ,and via PC click install.bat ,something wrong?
That should be fine.
Next try this.
Flash it again, but this time goto
mouts and storage and make sure you mount system first, then flash it...
EDIT:
Just a thought, after flashing the rom are you wiping system as well as dalvik and cache...if so then D'OH, don't wipe system, that deletes the rom you just installed
after flashing rom? i dont wipe anything , just before flashing
ok

You cant install custom kernels but you should be able to install stock based roms.
Are you trying to install a kernel? If so then dont.
Repair in pccompanion, root, install cmw recovery and flash rom.
It should work, if not try a different rom that is stock based

I have got EMMA but its not avaible for me...
Of coyrse you cant use emma. If you read the instructions its for unlocked bootloaders.
In order to get flashtool just look in the dev section for it.
To decide if a rom is stock based, read the op of the roms thread, it will say what it is based on there.
You should be able to flash my rom if you follow the instructions properly

Hi!
I just got a Xperia Z from a friend who try to install CM 10.1.
Apparently the bootloader is unlocked, CWM installed. And after the installation of CM, the device does not boot. Sony logo appears after a press on the start button and it turns down instantly.
What did I already try:
- Flash of two official roms with flashtool. The process stops after the progression bar is one fourth filled but nothing tells that the processus failed. But same issue always here, does not boot.
- Re-locked the bootloader with BLU (flashtool) to restore the phone with using Sony updater service : I have an error : "No loader found on this device".
Need your help please
Have you made a factory reset and cache delete before flashing CM? I make this mistake often but with flashtool I can always install back the stock rom.

I'm pretty sure he did a wipe data and wipe cache before the installation.
Flashtool does not repair my phone after a flash of the stock rom, do not know why..
What can I do ?

I guess that you have flashed a custom kernel and tried to make a normal boot ...Xperia ZR won't boot normaly when you flash a custom kernel!!Just enter to recovery mode,flash root files,and then flash the stock kernel and the device will boot normaly
