[Q] Dead Xperia Z - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

have a C6603, unlocked bootloader, installed Romaur v8 Rom, and Doom Kernel
while working something on my phone ( downloading some apps from playstore ) it suddenly reboot, it happened in a row like 5 last night, then after that, the unit aint turning on
tried flashing kernel tru fastboot, it failed
when i connect it to flashtool, its always connected to flashmode
tried to flash stock via flashtool it failed ...
( ERR_SEVERITY="MINOR";ERR_CODE="0026";ERR_DYNAMIC="Write TA failed."; )
can get into flashboot and fastboot, but always failing
Notes:
1.when i charge it a Red light keep blinking in normal speed
2.if i power it on, it will just vibrate and aint turning on
3.if i connect it to pc it will enter flashmode fo couple of seconds ( though without pressing volume down button )
Question:
Fastboot commands works fine ( though it always failed to wipe and flash ) is there a way to reboot into flashboot using fastboot?

no one wants to help :'(

Try keeping it on charge for at least an hour on stock charger that will give you at least 50% battery then try flashing a different ftf file with wipe data unticked
As you are unlocked bootloader then pull the boot.img out of dooms zip and flash it in flashtool (Click on lighting bolt/fastboot / select kernel to flash) that will reload your kernel
Or copy boot.img to adb directory and then load up adb and type fastboot flash boot boot.img

i charge it for 5 hours ( i sleep first cuz aint got any sleep )
i tried the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" using doomkernel, and doom's advance stock kernel with recovery, and both failed
i tried flashing in fastboot using Flashtool still failed, it said something like "bootloader cant be unlocked"

Have you tried to flashboot stock kernel and stock rom wiping everything? And do you have updated drivers for xperia z?

If you keep the volume UP button pressed and connect the USB. (Do not press power)

Download and flash a generic FTF file from your region, using flashtool.
Check the topic: [NOOBS GUIDE] Create your own stock firmware FTF & Flashtool flashing guide[+ pics]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2188129
Check the part: Stage 4 = Flashing FTF.
That is after downloading a generic FTF file from your region, and installing the correct fastboot drivers.
This post belongs in Xperia Z General instead of Xperia Z Android Development, and should be stickied.
Very useful information by xl VipeR lx.
Kind regards, Stefan.
AW: Xperia Z unresponsive - possible bricked
Overkill. Either run a "repair" operation on PC Companion or reflash your phone with SUS, Sony Update Service. No point in flashing a FTF which doesn't originally belong to the phone.
@OP I'm guessing you haven't unlocked the bootloader which is probably why flashing CM bricked your phone. Relax... Xperias are very hard to brick, as schaggo said just repair with SUS and you should be fine. In future if you have any doubts just drop me a PM
Sounds to me like the reason you couldn't get CM to work is because you didn't actually flash the kernel like you are supposed to the first time. I assume this because all you say is you got cm10 and flashed it and it didn't work.
You are supposed to (for the first time flashing CM10):
1) download the .zip
2) extract boot.img from the zip
3) flash that boot.img in fastboot (put it in your fastboot folder, open cmd and use the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" then "fastboot reboot"
4) boot into recovery
5) now flash the .zip of cm10 as per normal.
6) enjoy the cyan goodness
My issue I am facing now is returning to my original stock firmware. Restoring the backup doesn't work, nor does getting the boot.img out of the backup folder and fastboot flash that. Well it all flashes and restore, but it won't boot. It's easy enough to get back to cm from there though:silly:

They updated this software,now we cannot repair the phone if you have unlocked bootloader.
All he can do now is using flashtool or emma(not working for me either).

Yup I did the process 2 days ago, but this problem only occurs when you have an unlocked BootLoader. If you don't you can just use Sony's updating tool. I unlocked the BL and used FlashToon instead.

Ok, so it was a stock JB build. Bootloader unlocked is good. Safestrap on an unlocked boot loader is not. Safestrap is only necessary for locked bootloaders. It most likely isn't compatible with newer ROMs. While it may give you access to recovery, it is only used when the bootloader is locked. 4.1.2 on a cm build is cm10. Cm11 is 4.4 to 4.4.4. Sbf and a regular ROM are different and flashed in different ways. We do not have a 4.4 sbf. You need to flash a sbf, not a ROM, via RSD.

[Q] My Xperia SP(c5302) is not turning on

Hi,
I was trying to install a custom rom as instructed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735975
I used Philz recovery. Unfortunately i wiped the whole system and my rom installation failed
Now my phone is not turning on (it only shows Sony screen)
I've been pressing all the button combinations (power + volume up; power + volume down; power + vol up + vol down), and nothing happens, no vibration, only Red LED blinking when pressing power button whatsoever.
The only "vital" sign it gives is the Red LED when you plug it on the charger or on the USB on the PC.
Is my phone dead permanently ? Is there any way to recover my phone?
Any help, suggestion, thought from personal experience is appreciated!
Relax brother... First open your backcover and do a hard reset by pressing the hars reset button.. after that if you have unlocked your bootloader then connect your phone with fastboot ummm i guesss vol up and plug the cable at the same time.. when its connected it shows a blue led.. Flash the kernel for Xperia sp containing recoveries by choosing boot.img file from your pc.. Turn on it go into recovery and flash your rom... Bt if you havmt unlocked your bootloader then you have to flash ftf for xperia sp . 207 Okay and ya for ftf flashing just do a hard reset and plug in to pc using vol down and plug in at the same time

Thanks for quick reply bro
I have unlocked the bootloader. I don't know how to use fastboot
can you explain it to me please
Edit:
I tried vol up and plug the cable at the same time. At first it shows a blue led. But then it again only shows red led and sony screen Is my phone dead?
what should i do ?
Let for phone charge for some time... I guess it wont get charge if there is no os in your phone... Hmm umm okay you have to do it quick..
Open flashtool from menu go in fastboot there would be a option for flash kernel.. and place kernel on ur pc where you can locate it easily... .. U can flash any custom kernel.. which have recoveries built in... Just do it quick when you connect your phone... in fastboot mode give a try
When i connect the charger it shows red led but the screen remains same(sony screen). And when i remove the charger the screen and light remains the same. Shouldn't it turned off ?
Actually im not familiar with flashtool and fastboot can you elaborate the process please
Nothing's working Actually I think my phone doesn't have any OS currently. Because i cleaned the whole system
what should i do?
Do not drain your battery!! Switchoff your phone using the hard reset button when it vibrates 3 times.. Okay don't switchon it..
Yea ur phone dont have any os right now!
1)open flashtool you see menu button in the left and up... Select fastboot then a window popup select kernel( boot.img file) whatever any custom rom you have open it witj winrar and do extract boot.img or you can download it from here
https://mega.co.nz/#!PQRglRgY!kLntG3tvJp3TcVqfKtawBTV4Rwa5v8-mtLLQU-ifwOU
Download it and extract the boot.img file
Before selecting kernel(boot.img) connect your phone like you did bbefore blue right appear then select the kernel and flash it immediately!
Thanks for the help bro
I extracted cm-11-20150223-NIGHTLY-huashan ROM. Will its boot.img work ?
And i don't have any idea about flashtool can you please tell me how to install and use it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-sp/general there is guide how to use flashtoll
by a dev follow it bro and there are many thread which will be very helpful for you!!
Okay, i'm following the thread
Can you tell me if my boot.img will work or not ?
I extracted it from cm-11-20150223-NIGHTLY-huashan ROM.
Yes it will work!! But in case it wont wrk i suggest you to download doomkernel
Or willam's kernel or the link i gave u... But im sure that it will wrk... Just download yhe flashtool install it and drivers also.. it wud be in the default location somewhere in windows local disk install xperia sp drivers fastboot drivera and flashboot drivers... and then follow the guide... Or the steps i told you already
I installed flashtool.
But it can not find my device when i connect it
What's the problem ?
Is there any video tutorial solution for my problem? I am not very good at android so it's kind of hard for me to follow the instructions
I solved the earlier problem.
But now when i'm trying to flash the device it says that the device must be rooted.
As far as i'm concerned i rooted my mobile. What changed now ??
what can i do in this situation? please help
These are the log when i tried to flash my Xperia SP

you unbricked your device ??
and you have unlocked bootloader as far i know ?? you can flash any custom kernel and for the root do you have towelroot app(tr.apk) .. its a one step rooting method !! do a google search ... and if you have recoveries installed then why dont you flash kernel in recoveries ??
Yes. I used towelroot app.
and I installed recovery. But now i can't go to the recovery menu
when i push power button it only shows sony screen. Nothing happens after that screen remains the same what can i do ?
Hey jangid,
I think my phone is still locked, although i thought i unlocked bootloader
Actually I did these http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735975 steps before my phone goes dead.
Today when I tried to flash with "Emma Flash tool" and it says that my device is locked
Here is the screenshot :
what should i do now ?
you are using emma flashtool ??? .. if your bootloader is locked then you cant flash kernels ... and dont use emma flashtool its complicated to use ...
argggg .. just download 12.1.A.1.207 ftf file for xperia sp it would be arnd 800mb .. and flash it with flashtool (in flashboot vol down while plugging )after flashing it your phone will work again !!! ... to ..
I tried to flash as you instructed with C5302_12.1.A.1.205_India.ftf
But it showed error after some processing
Here is the error : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3182578&stc=1&d=1424825034
And sadly now my hard reset button is not working maybe. Because it doesn't vibrate like before
I'm going crazy bro Is there any way out ? Tell me if i can get my phone back ?
Tell me about the condition of your phone... Does your phone getting on??
If yes does it have recoveries??? .. wait from the screenshots.. Did u able to connect your phone in flashboot?? ( Green led)
Currently my phone screen is completely black no matter what i do
when i press the power button red light blinks. nothing happens to the screen.
if i try to do a hard reset it doesn't work i mean in previous it vibrated 3 times, but now it doesn't do that
my phone is not getting on and i don't think it has recoveries. Actually i think my phone totally blank(no OS, no nothing), because as far as i remember i wiped the whole system during custom rom installation
i was able to connect it in flashboot mode(green light). But when i tried to flash my device it showed this error after some processing -

can you guess my phone's condition?

[HELP] Did i killed my SP?!

Friends, i think i did something really wrong..
I have this sony sp for a long time broken, but i fixed the screen and give it a chance to come back to life.. But i dont like the OLD android, and tried to install OREO on it... i remember it has already unlocked bootloader. So i installed twrp using adb commands, and could get into the TWRP ... so i just did a wipe system, cache ... bla bla bla..... but it was on stock rom... never flashed any rom on it before... so.... the rom didnt installed fine... got error
but the big big problem, i cant get into fastboot mode or flashmode... everytime i got into one of those, i got onlu for a few seconds and got a sony logo and cant do anything....
i tried to install the drivers again using flashtools drivers, and the driver wont install... i am on Windows 10 and dont know what to do ( i can install other drivers like sony z1 it Works fine)
tried to install it from device manager (my computer, add legacy hardware)
nothing seems to work... what i wanted to do is... get into flashmode, to install the stock ftf on it .... but it get only for 10 seconds, after that, sony logo and stuck...
heeelp me guys
are you sure it's battery is not very low?
Omg, just install flashmode drivers
did you keep pressing buttons after succesfully put your device into fastboot or flash mode?
Thanks for answering me :
1 - When i started to try to flash the rom, it was at 90% of battery
2 - I noticed that i was having problem to put it in fastboot mode and flashmode , somehow i could install TWRP using ADB commands.
3 - My phone was already getting recognized by xperia companion
4- when i got the problem try to flash ftf back but i am getting a loop, device disconnected and in flash mode... just blinking
5- TRY TO INSTALL Flashtool drivers in flashtool folder, but , when i choose, FLASHMODE and FASTBOOT MODE, and choose the "VISKIAN BOARD" that says the chipset for XPERIA SP i got this :

so now you can flash kernel .elf via fasboot, williams kernel has TWRP (AFAIK) so you can flash any ROM zip

extract .zip to get .elf, and read the kernel FAQ to know more about recovery buttons, I have quite forgotten, it's very old kernel

ONE MORE QUESTION , GUYS
Any ideas why Windows 10 wont install fastboot and flash mode for the viskian driver? I have a Xperia Z1 and i installed it normally... i have fastboot and flashmode for xperia z1... but Even now, with my xperia sp working
getting recognized by xperia companion.... When i turn off the phone, power up + usb cable... it turns the blue light on, for like, 5 seconds, and i got the sony logo and starts to charge my device....
i really wanted to solve this problem, because, to use Windows 7 i have to use an old Hard Drive of mine here....
