Firslty, wrong section.
Secondly, don't panic, just download a FTF file from post 2 of the very first thread in the Q & A section. then download and install flashtool from the very first thread in the dev section and use it to flash the FTF file to your phone.
PS, I must ask why you unlocked your bootloader?

Dun worry flash back ur stock Rom using ftf file

[Solved] Entering the recovery menu not working. Any suggestions?

Hi guys. I have a sony xperia t and i forgot my screen lock pin. i tried to find how to unlock it over the internet but none of the ways is working. If i connect it ot a computer and try to use the Sony PC Companion it says that the screen has to be unlocked. If i try to enter the recovery menu by holding the volume button and the power button it just vibrates 3 times and doesn't switch on at all. Any suggestions?
Thanks

enter recovery by turning off. Then turn on and only when you see the sony logo repeatedly press the volume up button.
What you are doing is the hard reset.
You could restore a backup you made before making the pin, of just do a factory reset. You will lose all your data, but you will be able to get into the phone.
Pressing once is sufficient, if done at the right time.
If on stock, while the sony logo is displayed, wait for the notification led to turn violet. When violet, press and hold volume-up. This will bring you to recovery.
To retain your data, provided you rooted, you could try to get your /data folder via ADB. Or make a backup (tar, not dup!), format the phone and then manually extract the contents of the .tar file and restore your data.
hi guys and thanks for the replies. i can't make it work. it's locked to 3 if that makes a difference. i start pressing the volume up button when the sony logo appears but the phone just boots normally and the led light doesnt even flash.

Have you rooted in the past?
Have you installed a recovery?
The phone does not come with a factory installed recovery.
Yes, it sounds like you have not installed recovery, in which case flashtool is your best bet, but you will wipe the phone if you flash an ftf.

doesn't the phone need to be with debugging mode switched on to use flashtool? i had a look at a few threads but all of them say that i have to have debugging on. i cant access my phone so that's a bit of a problem...
Yes it does...my only suggestion now is to take it back to the shop. If you forgot the unlock they must have a way of factory resetting the handset
EDIT, My mistake, the only thing you can do in flashtool with usb debugging off is flash stock FTF's
Well, the phone does come with a stock recovery that does miss out on all the great CWMR features but should offer wiping facilities. Every Android device does or should. Doesn't it?
For flashmode, usb debugging is not needed, as the phone boots into a state separated and independent of the OS and kernel.

xperia phones do not come with a built in recovery.
Flashtool does not require you to be in usb dubbing mode in order to flash.
right..i tried to flash it using the latest(i think) version of flashtool (0.9.9.0)..downloaded an ftf file and tried but i can't make it work. when it asks me to boot the phone it shows me the instructions for xperia x10, so i dont know whats the combination of buttons in order to boot it. help would be much appreciated. thanks
Read the instructions on Greg's q&a thread, all in one guide. It's easy to follow and there are numerous explanations on how to use flashtool.
Make sure you have placed an ftf in the firmware folder for flashtool and follow the instructions on Greg's guide.

Yes, the Q&A thread is a good read.
But with the latest flashtool you can drag and drop ftf files into the open window withoout having them in the firmware folder.
You get a picture of the x10 because flashtool was originally developed for the x10 but the instructions to enter flashmode are found in the q7a thread. Icould tell you here but that will mean you miss the opportunity to read the first 3 posts in that thread that have most (If not all) your questions answered.
i did it...thanks guys

[Q] Sony Xperia Z keeps restarting

Hey i rooted my xperia z a few days ago and all was well, i put beats audio pro app on it and it started going mental. I tried to uninstall it and since then its just constantly turns on and then restart. Ive tried doing the reset by holding power and volume up and waiting for 3 vibrates. I can get it into bootloader mode but dunno if i can reset/restore it. Does anybody have any ideas or know if i can reset through bootloader?
Cheers Sturtz
Sony Xperia Z help (SORTED)
Ok i got this problem sorted out and im just going to write up in case anybody else needs it.
Download the latest Flashtool ( found in OG android development forum)
Install the Flashtool drivers found in the drivers folder
Connect phone in Flash-mode (phone shut down, volume down + power)
Press the BLU button
Press the relock option
Put a stock .tft firmware in the Flashtool firmwares folder (this is required!!)
Flash the firmware (this is required!!)
Above info is from Aerys from this site so thank you
STOCK ROM thanks to Apollo89

I then used Sony PC Companion to repair
:laugh:
try to put it in bootloader through the abd comands hope wil work its happen to me before also
How did you use the flash tool and pc companion together?
Also why did you flash the Rom again, you might fix it if you clear the cache of apps?

I bricked my XZ :(

Please help guys. I tried flashing ROM using the instructions on the front page for locked bootloader and my phone froze on formatting /system, I restarted phone and it is just stuck on Sony. I have tried holding power and volume up it does nothing except restart the device. My PC won't recognise it to do any repairs. Any ideas?
Keep pressing vol up + power for 15 sec till the phone shutdown.
Use flashtool to flash a stock ftf firmware.

Ok thanks I have it turned off now. How do I flash with it off with flashtools?
Download flashtool from development section,and an ftf stock firmware.
Put the ftf file in flashtool/firmware folder.
Install xperia z drivers,you find it in flashtool/drivers
Click on flash,choose the ftf and wait the the pop up telling you to connect your phone by holding volume down and connecting the usb.

I don't know if there is an easier way cause i didn't tried the recovery available.
All you can do is doing all steps again and install the recovery than restore your backup.

firmware on my device so i entered the install from sdcard menu without even thinking much about it i located the .zip file and installed it and clicked reboot and then absolutley nothing but the boot vibration went off and the screen stays black and it is stuck here . so i used to old powr+ vol up for 3-15 secs and waited for the double vibration and still nothing happens .so im stuck.
sorry for the long post but i`m in a panic as this phone is fairly new about 1 month old and i had already rooted and unlocked boot loader on it so .i hope the info helps you to help me

Sounds to me like you haven't flashed the kernel required for 4.2.2 (I am presuming you were on a stock/custom Sony ROM before)
If you flash 4.2.2 you also need to flash the kernel specific to the ROM you've tried to flash using fastboot commands.
To do that you need to have the correct XZ drivers installed, and have adb/fastboot working

[Q] Xperia Z bootloop after installing display calibration software

So, I have rooted my Xperia Z, I do not have any recovery. I installed this white balance, too fix the screen contrast.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2190293
I used the second method, since I did not have a recovery. After installing, I restarted my phone and:
1. It showed the Sony Logo
2. Blank
3. Back to step 1.
I just want to delete a few files from the /system folder. Is it possible to access the phone system files? I do not really want to reset the phone.
Things I can do
1. Shut down the phone (Power + Volume Up Button)
2. Use Sony Update Service (After powering down, hold volume down button)
And that's all about it I found out. Currently, I am charging the phone, and it gave me this battery icon.
Please help me with this. Any help is appreciated.

Tutorial unbricking Xperia T JB

This is a tutorial on.how to unbrick your beloved Xperia T!
Should work on.TX, TL and V aswell, just make sure you search for the correct ftf file!
The ftf file in this tutorial are ONLY for the Xperia T lt30p.
So you've bricked your new device with a wrong kernel, Rom, baseband or however?!
Well don't panic!
Usually it should be real simple to unbrick, just follow these steps!
1. First you'll need to install flastool.
Drivers com within the download, all posted at the bottom:thumbup:
2. You'll need an ftf file to flash via flashtool. (here 9.1.A.0.489, you can update or flash a Rom after)
Install flashtool on your pc, install all drivers!
If your phone is turned on and in a bootloop, turn it off!
For those of you that can't turn it on, due to wrong kernel or such, don't worry, all is good!
Place the ftf file you've downloaded, into the firmware directory from flashtool.
On.Windows you'll find it under C:/flashtool
After that, hit the flash button (the top left corner with the flash symbol)
Follow the instructions.
When flashtool tells you to connect phone by holding the back button, you'll find you can't, because you don't have one.
Use the volume down key instead, you'll go Good with that!!!
If the green light goes on, from your notification led, you did everything correctly:thumbup:
Coose the ftf file you've added in flashtool and now you should be able to see things to mark and unmark.
You can now exclude or include things you want or don't want to be flashed like kernel, baseband, firmware, fota etc.
Remeber to check that wiping cache and dalvick cache are marked. It's always of advice to wipe them before flashing!
Now that you've checked all that, hit confirm/flash and let flashtool do its job!
When.flashtool has finished, it will inform you! You can now remove the cable and turn on your device:thumbup:
Remember, after the flash it will take a while till the phone fully boots up, it may even reboot 1 or 2 times during bootup, don't worry there!
Downloads:
Android Jelly Bean 9.1.A.0.489ftf. www.4shared.com/file/kfPSWBWg/AndroidGadgematiccom_Xperia_t_.html
Flashtool: androxyde.github.io
Don't forget to hit the thanks button
Cheers and have fun.with your T
I am not responsible for you bricking or damaging your device or your devices software! If you follow these steps correctly, nothing can go wrong!
Regards:thumbup:
