[HALP] Can't boot into cwm recovery lt30at

Tried reinstalling it using the batch file and I still can't get into cwm. It just sits at the Sony logo until the end of time but the os loads just fine. Any tips? If not, what directory is cwm installed in so I can see what's going on? Thanks!

If you unlocked, then it's unlocked... Why don't you try looking in your service menu as well..

then flash the correct kernel in fastboot.
Or repair using pccompanion
Or flash a stock ftf in flashtool.
This is not advanced stuff...always try these things first if you think you cannot bring the phone back to life.

[Q] Stuck infintie boot loop of Teamwin

Hello in need of some serious help my xperia z was rooted but with locked bootloader i tried to flash a app thru Teamwin it sent me into a boot loop so now all the phone does is flash team win then turn off and on it has a solid purple light any help will be appreciated and i will make a donation thru paypal for anyone that can help!!

Seems can be fixed very easy:
Either fire up PCC and choose repair phone.
Else download Flashtool, disable force driver signing and install the following drivers from Flashtool:
- Xperia Z
- Fastboot
- Flash mode
Then download a ftf with stock firmware, and Flash it using Flashtool.
Et voilá, your phone is back with the livings.
If you can't find a ftf, just ask me, i'll upload mine tomorrow.

While phone is in usb bootloader mode, type in cmd "fastboot erase Cache" and it should return to normal.
Btw: have you flashed anything that would make this happen? Like kernal or mods?

I ended up doing it thru Sony companion didn't want to but the flash tool would get stuck on installing and never prompt for flash mode im rooted again but woth the locked bootloader as I dont want to lose bravia this all happened because I tried to install a sound mod that sent the device into a boot loop and when I tried to restore in teamwin thats when things got worse and phone would power on and then off

Read the op on how to install whatever mod you want to flash and make sure it's a flashable zip through recovery. The sound mod might have done it if you didn't install it right. I don't think you need a flash tool to flash the mod and you could have done it through your phone's recovery.

[Q] Flahing a 4.4 rom no root

How to flash a 4.4 rom without the use of rooting and only using unlocked boot loader. I don't want to downgrade my device and I don't want root at this stage just want to run a 4.4 rom that is very similar to the current sony stuff, I am happy to do a clean install if necessary. I am sorry if this has been asked before, I could not find this doing a search before posting.
Please don't spam this posts about what is best and worst only want something very simple and easy to install and not something in development as when kk is available for my device I will be flashing that.
Thank you in advance

Easy, download latest Cyanogen Mod. Zip, extract the boot.img from the zip (this is the kernel) and pit zip on your phone/sd card
Open a Fastboot Cmd prompt on your pc, type "Fastboot flash boot boot.img" then after its that's done type "Fastboot reboot"
When the led turns on press vol up to enter recovery and wipe data/factory reset (you need to going from stock to Cm/AOSP, flash the Cyanogen mod zip, reboot and enjoy.
Find the all things you need to know thread from doomlord for more info on setting up and using fastboot

Also rereading your thread, all the 4.4 roms are based on AOSP so your desire for them to be like current Sony offerings just isn't gonna happen. The closest thing to 4.4 Sony is eXistenZ v 6.6 in the android development section. It has alot of the features and apps from the Xperia Z2 4.4 ported over though it is actually a 4.3 rom. It's the closest you can get to Sony 4.4 until an official kitkat update drops

Is the second rom easy to flash or is root required?

since you have unlocked bootloader already, could you explain why you want to do it without root?
I am pretty sure your phone needs root access to be able to replace the system files.
The only 4.4 you can flash is cyanogenmod, which is different to sony one.
if you want something similar to sony 4.4, you can flash existenz rom, it is still based on 4.3, but functions very similarly to 4.4 from the Z2.

You cannot flash a 4.4 rom and not have root - the custom kernel required for the role s have root access inbuilt. So no, you don't need to root your phone yourself, flashing the kernel from the rom via your unlocked boatloader will automatically root it.

No it wont root device even if kernel is insecure and all
We need su binary and app to administer it
And that can be done from recoveries

I have tried to enter recovery mode in the past but have not managed to do so, with the z is there a particular way to do it? The phone just boots up as normal when I try

Have you actually flashed a custom recovery? If so, the thread for the recovery will tell you how to enter it. You usually press one of the volume keys when the phone is booting.

What I am referring to is the boot options menu, I know how to flash my phone if for eg I was to flash a standard ftf

I'm not sure you do know. I assume your previous device was a Motorola. Xperia devices don't have a boot options menu.
If you want to enter recovery mode, you need to actually flash a custom recovery first.
