First: Could you please sort out the post you made.
From what i can understand you wanted to root your device (with DoomLords Exploit tool) and this has failed?
Second: If you accidently messed up your device. You can use this guide to (try) fix it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2476938
And third: If you have restored your device I recommend you to use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2476220

HI Everyone.
My Xperia X8 is bricked as i have tried to install custom roms in my phone. Now it is stucked at the Sony Ericsson Logo screen and is not going any further.
I have tried to flash the phone using Flash Tool but it failed. After connecting it in flash mode, Flash Tool says to check the USB Debugging mode from within phone which is not possible as it is not working.
I have also tried Sony PC Companion to repair my phone but at the time of update it says that no new update is available for my phone.
I have also tried using Sony Update Service but it also failed.
What should i do now?
Since retyping is troublesome ...
Have a look at this post I wrote up in this thread
Edit: Follow the instructions carefully. As you can read in the thread the restore worked (and I resurrected mine from the same point where yours is stuck).
The "Flash Tool says to check the USB Debugging mode from within phone" can't come up if the phone is connected in "Download mode" (keeping the back button pressed while connecting the USB cable to the computer). The crucial part is that the phone is TURNED OFF at the step where you press the back button, and that you KEEP the button pressed until Flashtool starts to flash.
And install gordon gate's usb drivers

Hi,
Just got my new ZR and it came with 10.3.1.A.0.244
I need to root, so I can restore my app's data from my old phone (Xperia SOLA) via Titanium.
I started by following this thread and doing as advised:
- install USB drivers (Z, A, fastboot and flashmode)
- change USB mode to MSC
- activate debug over USB
- install Flashtool (upgrade in my case)
- restart phone in flash mode
- use flashtool to flash XperiaZ_C660X_KernelOnly_10.3.A.0.423_Generic_NL.ftf
- flashtool says it succeeds, to remove cable and start phone
That's where it gets stuck! The phone doesn't wake up. I remove the battery, press the power button for a couple of seconds and it vibrates and ... nothing else. If I hook the phone into FlashTool, it says the phone is in flash mode.
I've tried flashing the XperiaZ_C660X_KernelOnly_10.3.1.A.0.244_BE.ftf, but nothing works.
I bring the phone back alive by using SUS, but I'm back where I started. I've done this 3 times, and redownloaded the FTF 2 times.
What am I doing wrong? I'm still on locked bootloader. The phone has less than 24 hours... hasn't seen water yet :cyclops:
Wanted to test a couple of things, before voiding my warranty!!
If anyone has any ideas/sugestions, I'd love to hear them!

Dude, XZR is C550X, you're flashing C660X which is XZ's kernel...
Follow the instruction here for root in 4.1.2 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2384590
If you're on 4.2, you can try follow here but it seems still buggy -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387008
Hi,
I see now where I got mislead... (n00b)
As I see it, no valid method to get root on 4.2!
Can I flash 4.1.2 on my locked bootloader? And where do I find the correct ROM image for my C5503?
Thanks again!

Found it! It was hiding behind a spoiler box in the 4.2 thread
Hajah, the C5503 n00b
try
try using doomlord rooting kit download it and connect your phone to your computer install driver if you want start doomlord press any key to continue it will automaticaly restart when it has finished
Yes, you can flash any firmware without unlocking your bootloader.
You can get all 4.1 and 4.2 stock ROM from different region in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2384512
You can try to root your 4.2 using the method, some reported to be successful.
did it work
did it work dude cause it works on all devices:fingers-crossed:
tam Esument
is there a quick and easy method to check if the bootloader is unlocked or not?
See this post.
hello guys i rooted my xperia z using fastboot tool and i had a problem with it ,when i connect it with the flash tool it connect but the usb debugging is off !!!!!!! , i turn it on but it doesn't work ! , when i try to put the stock framware 4.4.2 .it stops it 0%!!, i used root checker and i found that i doesn't have a proper root access.:crying:i had a backup with sony pc companion but it didn't help , ,also i try SuberSU it tills me that 'ther is no su binary installed and supersu can't install it !! please help me i don't know any thing about root
At first you should check towelroot thread. Its simplest way to get root.
But the flashtool should start from the beginning. close flashtool program, install drivers from \flashtool\drivers. kill all processes that use adb.exe (all instances of adb.exe, pc compagnion in task manager) and start over.
I suggest you check what condition is the usb cable. Once cheap cable was fault of brick my xperia S.
PS. You do not need to have enabled debugging for flashing.
Hey everyone,
I'm afraid that I may have nerfed my phone and I'm hoping someone can help me.
I was trying to root my phone so that I could attempt to fix the bad microphone volume issue. I tried following some directions I found on digitalendpoint dot zendesk dot com. I'm not allowed to post the actaul url.
I got all the way to the end of step 5, but when I issued the "fastboot reboot" command my phone restarted but once it displays the Sony / Xperia logos for a few moments it reboots, and continues this cycle indefinitely. :crying:
I can get my phone back in to fastboot, and when I enter fastboot devices I see my phone listed. However, adb cannot see the device.
Is there any hope???

Do you have the correct drivers installed on the PC for your phone?
If the phone still fires up then you can fix it.
The easiest method is to install PC Companion and follow these instructions.
If you are determined to use a custom rom then you might want to read this post
I have the correct drivers. Unfortunately, I can't use PC Companion. I says that my phone has been modified (which is true) and refuses to flash the latest stock rom. However, I was able to restore my phone. I found that both Flashtool and Emma worked.

I flashed my Xperia SP with from Jellybeam to CM13 rom. I didn't create any backup, wiped clean everything including cache using twrp recovery. While the setup installed CM13 without any error but I downloaded the wrong gapps and the setup didn't accept those. So I chose to reboot the cell and since then it just stopped responding. Although it is showing the green led while plugged in via USB, it won't start in neither fastboot nor recovery mode.
I'm stuck here and have no idea what to do.
I tried installing PC companion, flashtools, SP flashtools, emma, everything. None of these detect my cell. I'm using Windows 10 (64 bit) and am at a dead end.
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE:
I managed to flash it with errors and now it's stuck in a SONY logo bootloop. Its starts, shows SONY logo for a while and then turns off again. Again it's not getting recognised by any flash tool, sony companion etc.
Help please.

Installed the driver and flashed it with a rom but it's still stuck on the SONY logo. One more thing, It's bootloader wasn't unlocked when I messed up at the beginning. What can I do to save my phone?

Whether I try to flash it or unlock, phone boots up before the process is completed. I'm completely stumped here.
Hi! Still have the problem? I faced the same two days ago when I tried to change the on on my SP. But finally I could save the Phone by searching a bit on the net. Pls tell me if matter is still on and I try to translate the steps to english.

Yes, still stuck there. Can't flash it because phone boots mid-process and flashing aborts. Please help me out here.

Hey!
Sad to hear, but maybe (I hope) this method will help you. Basically what you will get is an original Xperia SP with 4.1 android as it came from the factory.
You will need:
1. Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde" version 0.9.18.6. Don't know if newer version came or better. You can find it here in forums. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2489955
2. The basic ROM "12.0.A.2.254".
The method that helped me:
SP turned off. Cable not connected.
Start Sony Mobile Flasher (Flashtool) , give administrator rights.
Top left cornet click on the bolt and choose flashmode, then in firmware selector you can find and select the downloaded ROMs and kernels. Choose the official 4.1 (12.0.A.2.254). Click falsh so it starts to proceed.
Then a windows appears called "wait for flashmode".
Now. Grab your turned off SP press volume down and connect the usb to pc. Keep holding volume down button till flashtool starts to upload the system. (Hopefully it will be fast enough, and phone will not turn on. For me it was)
After flashtool is finished you will see:
09:50:53 - INFO - Flashing finished.
09:50:53 - INFO - Please unplug and start your phone
09:50:53 - INFO - For flashtool, Unknown Sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings
09:50:54 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode
Unplug and start the SP
If everything went as planned you have your phone back with stock 4.1 and 12.0.A.2.254 kernel.

Thanks a lot brother. At first it didn't work when I flashed it with the latest version of Flasher. Then I installed the exact version you mentioned (0.9.18.6) and phone didn't boot during the flashing and now it's back to normal with the default 4.1 stock.
Thanks a bunch, you're a life saver for me. :highfive:
