Phone bricked

Hey guys.. i think i have bricked my phone
I have the c6602 model and have a unlockable bootloader but left it locked. I have rooted it using goroh_kuns method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186368
then put CWM for locked bootloaders on it using this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187363
then flashed this stock based kernel ROM through CWM without wiping the old one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2175903
but now my phone starts up, and reboots automatically, resulting in a loop. I can not go into the CWM recovery anymore because you have to do it through pc everytime while your phone is on.
Personally i think its Superuser from the previous rom and SuperSU from the new rom mixing up and resulting in the loop boot
Can somebody help please..?

Did you try to enter to CWM recovery by pressing volume key while booting to see if the recovery is working
yes it does not work, the led becomes blue after holding power + volume up it vibrates thrice x 2 then i continue volume up and the led turns blue but nothing really happens, i think its the download mode?

If you have the blue led working this means that it has the fastboot mod working - press VOLUME UP + PLUG INTO PC(not power)
try to switch off the device then press the VOLUME DOWN button while connecting to pc = flash mod
If you have one of theese working you can always repair your device

while you turn on the phone and sony logo shows up.. press vol down few times until CWM recovery shows up
power on the phone and when the sony logo appears, start repeatedly tapping vol up key until you get a vibration alert.

Hey I am having a boot and boot recovery issue

I think I have a unique problem here. I tried to install the Holo Blur Rom using bootstrap. After I flashed it my bootup is looping and all attempts to get into Recovery mode are fail.
When I do the Power+Vol+ I get a screen with Android on it's back and the ! but nothing ever happens. I have also tried getting into the Bootstrap menu but that doesnt work either, it goes into boot up.
Do you think there is a way to save my phone still?
- Bootloader is unlocked
- Rooted
##EDIT##
I figured it out, I did not know you had to press Pwr+ Vol+ Vol- all at once. I thought it was just Pwr+ Vol+ only. Thanks!

With an unlocked bootloader, you should use CWM or Touch Recovery, nothing else as these custom roms need one or the other to install.

Hard brick z3 compact - flashtool does not work

hello all friends.
I have a hard brick in my Z3c ... rather than install a full rom, I installed an update to 135 MB, and had given full wipe the system the device simply does not care anymore.
FlashTool does not work, already tried everything and it will not.
Error of drivers but they are installed all the drivers ... ok.
I TWRP on the device but can not access it for flashing back up what I had done.
Simply do not have access into the Z3c ...
Some logical solution to this problem ??
Grateful to all the friends who can help.

Unlocked bootloader?
Is the front panel led still working?
Can't you see the Sony logo?
If you press power + volume. up for some seconds, does the phone vibrate?
Fastboot mode?

Nope, it's just a soft-brick
Press power + vol.up until it vibrates 3 times.
Then flash a stock firmware with Flashtool. Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/list-stock-firmwares-d5803-d5833-t2906706

I had that exact problem when installing Cyanogenmod a couple of days ago, realized there was no internal storage anymore so i flashed a pre root zip and got my files back.
I was using XZDR, I think it is just a problem with the latest twrp...

shut down your phone and press power + vol + buttons while restarting it will take into recovery.
If above doesnt work try power + vol - buttons
