Help: Boot Loop - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Successfully unlock the bootloader on my W8 PC and tried to root the phone.
However, I get "waiting for device" after entering "fastboot flash boot Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img" at command prompt.
Thinking that the bootloader unlock was unsuccessful, I repeated the process again and tried the fastboot command again......and it still had the "waiting for device " messsage
I disconnected the phone from the PC and powered on the phone and now its boot-looping.
Please help.....

looks like you do not flashed the kernel so it is not booting
PS: Did you have a blue light during flashing ?

Still unable to solve problem.
ave downloaded Flashtool and the stock fw but before I start, just wanna confirm if I am doing the right thing by using Flashtool

Me Too....I'm trying to wait until it's battery is gone, have you try this method??

did you two guys resolve this bootloop? and out of interest did you use the "fastboot.exe" from the android sdk or somewhere else?

so i try to flash the remaining stock kernel and work
problem solve!~

Am still stuck with bootloop
I can get into fastboot but cant flash the ftf as well.
I tried Flashtool (not the beta for Z) and also downloaded the French firmware and Z ftf.
But I cant the the green LED on my Z when connected to the PC (My Z had no LED lights)
However, when I launched Flashtool, it was able to detect my phone.
I proceeded to flash with ftf but it stayed "Flashing...." for a very long time.

I downloaded Fastboot from one of links provided in XDA

Sounds like your pc isn't recognising the phone in fastboot mode. Did you install the drivers?

Looks like the drivers is likely the problem. But what drivers are you refering to?
The drivers from Android SDK, The Flashtool/Fastoot drivers or the Z drivers?
I have installed tboth he drivers from Android SDK with Google USB Rev 7 and from Fastboot and Flashtool drivers from Flash.
PC just cant detect phone at all

Thanks to those who responded to my thread.
Any small contribution from you is very much appreciated.
I finally got my set out of bootloop and working again.

softbrick/bootloop help
HI had the same issue, bootloop, anoying
what you have to do is this: use fastboot and typ, fasboot flash boot boot kernel
the kernel i used was Romaur. press start. after that you will enter recovery in youre phone and go to sideload.
now in sideload, typ adb sideload Romaur kernel, or any i think, just tested Romaur. press enter and after you done, you are not having issues with bootloop anymoore

[A] Solved the Seven Vibration Brick

\\\Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you mess this up & break your phone///
Checking Your Situation:
*Phone only boots to Fastboot
*Phone does/Doesn't charge
*Power button Seems useless
*Phone Turns on and only shows-
the X screen & Vibrates 7x's
*LED Only shows Green/ Orange
indication light
Things You'll Need:
*Wall Charger
*USB Cable
*Computer (duh)
*Battery (of course)
*FRG83 ROM file http://tinyurl.com/6bym3vg
*Android ADB Setup
*Fingers Crossed
(Tip: if you are using the same Sdcard when the phone messed up, reformat it or use a new one)
Step One:
Download FRG83 ROM file http://tinyurl.com/6bym3vg
and unzip the package into your AndroidSDK Tools Folder
Step Two:
Watch the battery trick video
http://youtu.be/2O5adV-jj64 (Thanks n1newbie)
Once you've analyzed the video enough
plug your phone (while it's off) to the wall
charger and while doing the wall trick !!Make
sure you hold down the Volume-Down Button!! so
you can boot into fastboot.
Step Three:
Once established fastboot, plug the phone
to your computer and let your computer discover the
device.
!!Make sure the device says Fastboot USB!!
Open Command Promt (CMD). If you already
know how to use Android ADB type these commands:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fastboot devices
!!Make Sure You Device ID Shows UP!!
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let the phone run everything through and you should
be one Froyo.
Step Four:
Power down your phone
Reboot into Recovery (to see if your phone is still rooted)
If you are able to get into recovery flash any ROM
you like and Enjoy your UnBricked Nexus One

hi lilj4321. thanx for the steps frnd

PS- sry if i am wrng. will the device boot into fastboot mode after the seven vibration brick happens
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
fixed the link!
no the phone will stay on the X screen until your battery dies
which is why you have to do the battery trick while holding the
volume-down button during the whole process.

will try this if seven vibration brick happens. but ill pray it shdnt happen
will be helpful for all if it is stickied :thumbup:
just my 2 cents ...
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
I hoped for something much more useful.
The method of reflashing to stock using fastboot commands has been posted on Nexus One Wiki for 2.5 years now.
And of course, it won't solve any overheating phone, and no "7-vibration brick".
Thanks for trying to help, but the post is kinda (very) useless.
Stuck in fastboot
My phone went into this rare phenomonen "7vibrations no boot"... its been 2weeks. Im not able to fix it till now.
Firstly , My phone doesnt respond in hboot screen when the sdcard is inserted. So for entering fastboot, I will take out sdcard and go to fastboot and then put my sdcard when the phone is connected to PC so that it doesnt turnoff when i pullout the battery. this i have been facing for quite long. cudnt fix it.
I tried exactly what you said.. but im stuck in the fastboot now.. im not able to flash anything using adb in fastboot.
im getting errors in fastboot.
when i typed 'fastboot flash system system.img"
it gives an error like "error: cannot load 'system.img' : unknown error"
did "fastboot erase" and it worked.
but flashing is not happening.

My Vivid got stuck on JoupunutBear screen!Help please!

Hi there,
I've been using my Vivid since it came out and been surfing rom to rom but haven't tried to get s-off.
I tried it today but unfortunately, there was an accident. While controlbear was running ( I haven't done the wire trick), my pc crashed and had to reboot. After that, my phone got stuck on JoupunutBear screen and I can't get it boot up again.
I tried to push recovery but cmd windows keep saying writing recovery and did not finish. I tried to oem lock, it said successfully locked but the second line said Failed (too many links). I put the stock rom as PH39IGM.zip on the sd card, the bootloader checked it twice but did not ask me to apply it.
That's every ways I know to save my phone's life but it did not help at all.
I think something can still be done while the bootloader is still accessible, right?
Please help me out! It's the first phone I bought my self!
Any help or idea would be appreciated!
Thank you all!

Start by reinstalling the drivers.
---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------
The reason you cant get to recovery is because the method you used (the only method) to root this phone overwrites the recovery partition in order to gain read/write access to the system partition. In order for you to get things going again you need to fastboot the system, and recovery partitions. If that doesn't work, you will have to flash completely back to stock.
i installed all the drivers once again and it stils not working, i am at the same. in de ADB console it recognizes the phone but only by the way that i said. i cant get in fastboot because when i type in the console ADB reboot bootloader it reboots into the fastboot but them it doesnt recognize the phone
there is no more ways for flash a new room? or something like that?

You are using the wrong command. adb doesnt work in fastboot mode. Once you are in bootloader mode you need to use fastboot commands. Type:

[Q] i really need help!!!

hi everyone
last week i flashed a KK rom, and i saw in recovery "can't access internal sorage" when i wanted to backup the rom. BUT i could download and flash other roms from the phone.plus, fastboot was not showing anymore "fastboot usb" but "fastboot ac" only, and my PC shows "unknown device" and doesnt see the phone.
i downloaded another rom, and to install it, i wiped data, cache, dalvik, and BY MISTAKE i wiped "internal storage".
and the result is.....: no rom inside the phone, i can't boot because i wiped system, i am still "fastboot ac", so i can't use adb commands....
i tried several cables, computers, tried to reinstall drivers etc....

i'm worried about something: i flashed a KK rom, that i downloaded in my htc one, and after i installed it and wanted to store the backup of the rom in twrp, it said "no storage available". when i came back home, my phone was not recognized by my pc, whereas it was before.
thats where it comes from i think.
i'm a heavy flasher since i had the nexus one!

pretty cold here too 13C (at night).... feels like close to 0~3 in most other countries for me

Deleted OS?

The other day I was using my phone and it started to die on me so I plugged it in to charge. I guess it was too low power, so when I plugged it in, it powered down and started charging via phone off. Later I come back to turn it on and it just gets stuck in bootloop. I haveTWRP installed so I cleared the dalvik cache and regular cache. That didn't work. So the next time I just did a factory restore, well after the restore I now have no files on my phone. No OS nothing.
When I plug the phone in via USB the computer chimes and lets me know something was plugged in but I don't get any other messages. If I plug my phone in while in recovery it shows the device with zero folders.
I am sure I can fix it from here, but while using WUGS Root Tool Kit my computer keeps telling me that no "FastBoot Devices" found. How do I fix that?
I would like to just flash an image if possible if someone can walk me through the process or any help would be great.

you wiped system, which wipes your rom off your phone. its a VERY easy fix.. just move whatever rom/gapps/supersu to your phone via twrp or adb, then flash it via twrp.

Also I installed a stock version of android off the factory images page and copied it over to my phone but TWRP cannot find the zip file?

Just any stock ROM, I downloaded one from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#fugu but it doesn't show up in TWRP.

to flash a factory image, you need to flaah it while in the bootloader, using fastboot. its not a zip.

a stock-like rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-rooted-deoxeded-fast-stable-t3252922

Honestly man, you are talking to someone who doesn't understand a lot about these things. I need detailed instruction on how to do this. I now don't have twrp installed. I tried to install CM13 and now its stuck in cyanogen recovery mode. This really sucks and need help on how to fix it. Also while in bootloader mode. It says FASTBOOT DEVICE NOT FOUND if it were found I would not be having this issue. I would have a stock rom installed and be on my way. Since it isn't able to find a FASTBOOT DEVICE that is why I am in this current situation.
NVM I figured it out. Had to install adb-setup-1.4.2.exe and now my phone is fixed and up and running.
