If you created a backup which you should have, just restore it.

Try using flashtool to flash the original firmware.
Check if holding the vol - works.
If it does. Then you dont have to worry. Your device will be fine.

Try googling for the .ftf file for your Xperia Z. Then you can flash the firmware with flashtool & I think.u should do it before your battery is gone...
Cause after flashing ftf it takes almost 3-4 minutes to boot.
Press thnx if I helped.

i was following the step that found in XDA

the files you can download inside.BUT something you should be aware~
1.this two file (Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img and Z_DooMLoRD_insecure_FW-350.img)
should put it in the same of adb.exe file (c:\xxx\sdk\platform-tools\)
2.IF you don't know how to connect devices in fastboot mode in step 6 (following by the website i gave)
you should wait after flashing CF-Auto-root and reboot about once , plugin your usb and press VOLUME UP key TOGETHER
in that time ,you should see a blue led light on your devices.
I'd try that just disconnect and hard power off ,and plugin usb normally ,you will be fail to enter fastboot mode.
So my solution of solving boot loop after flashing CF-auto-root ,is PRESS and HOLD VOLUME UP key WHILE plugin your usb.
i did a big and long time reseach that teaching how to root xperia z ,all haven't point out that the method of entering fastboot mode
maybe they use another way to enter anyway my devices is running normal now and rooted
Hope these can help you :laugh: and
sorry of my bad english~

Thanks. I will try again later.
Anyway, I am running on Windows 8 and I'm not sure if it could be one of the issues I've faced.
I installed both the Flashtool abd Fastboot drivers and it was ok except for the Google driver which it said was not installed.
I checked the Adroid SDK by running the SDK pgm and it tells me I have Google Drivers (version 7) already installed.
So it should be ok, rite??

The problem I am having now is when in bootloader mode (Blue LED), I run fastboot and enter the command:
fastboot flash boot Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img
then it says <waiting for device> and just stops there.....
I cannot proceed further....

Tried but still cant detect my phone......it just stays at BLUE LED (volume up) and PC still cant detect phone.
When I pressed volume down, there is no light.
When I press the power button, it starts to boot-loop
Btw, which drivers are you using and where did you guys get your drivers from?
I am downloaded the Android SDK drivers with Google USB drivers Rev 7.

Device won't turn on

I have a big problem
After unlocking my device and flashing my device with "KA02.2 Xperia Z Revolution" everything seemed running smooth for on day i turned my phone on and off writing sms, ... then when i tried to start up in fastboot mode and pluged into the pc to flash doomlords kernel it suddenly was dead. No LED light and the phone won't even start up (to be precisely i dont no if its even turned on).
Could it be that i am just stuck in fastboot mode and just let the device run out of battery? or what could it be?
Thanks for any response in advance!

I do not understand what you mean by:
"Could it be that i am just stuck in fastboot mode and just let the device run out of battery? or what could it be?"
By reading this I get the idea the phone is now no longer turning off?
If so, try hold the VOL UP + Power button untill it turns off.
If that is not the problem, hold VOL UP and plug in the USB in the phone. (Do not press power)
Does the device enter fastboot mode now?
If so, does your PC recognize the device when connected in fastboot mode?
Kind regards, Stefan.

Had a similar problem
Bricked my Xperia Z when I tried to install ClockWork Recovery on it.
Had to use the flash tool http://androxyde.github.com/
and then find the appropriate firmware for my T-mobile version
And I was able to bring my phone back to life.
My phone was so bad to the point when I hit the power button, a red light would flash

[T] Don't switch on & no flashmode

Hi everybody,
First, i would apologize for my poor English, and I hope you'll understand me
Phone : Xperia SP // Paranoid Android // LBL
Computer : Drivers Flash/Fast installed // Flashtool installed // SEUS installed
For 10 days, I get a little problem, my XSP don't restart. In the morning, my phone was 100% loaded, and I plugged in a bad battery charger from ebay. After use it, I would like to lock the screen and black screen but back light doesn't switch off. I tried to unlock the screen but i couldn't. Then i pressed off button behind the case and i was expecting that the XSP restarts, but nothing.
I re-plugged it on my good battery charger and the LED stays off.
I let it for 10 days and today i re plugged it to wall battery charger and surprise! the LED switch on red. Then I tried to get it onto flashmode but when I plug XSP to the computer with volume - pressed, there's nothing happen.
Is anybody could help me? Pliiiiiiiiiz!

You should try the Minimal ADB and Fastboot. It's a really great tool if you don't wish to download the whole Android SDK.
Also see the FlashTool Xperia Driver Pack by @DooMLoRD. Downloading and choosing Fastboot and Flashmode Drivers while installing this driver pack will probably fix your problems. :highfive:
Press Thanks if I helped you
---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------
You should also go into the Device Manager and see if your device is listed there or if it is shown as an Unknown Device. If nothing is shown click Scan for hardware changes and see if something comes up! :fingers-crossed:

USB Debugging mode has nothing to do with Flashmode. We can go into flashmode even if there is no ROM installed. As USB Debugging is a setting which can be toggled inside the ROM I don't think it has any effect on Flashmode. So thats not your problem.
Have you tried the steps I mentioned above?

That is definitely because of a driver problem. Goto Device manager and then try connecting the phone. When you connect it there will be a new entry in the list of connected devices. Right click that and uninstall those drivers and try starting over.

If PC recognizes your phone, can you use that to boot into fastboot mode?
Either use adb command "adb reboot fastboot" in PC
Or press and hold VOLUME_UP button then connect your phone to PC via USB (should see blue LED)
