Flash official HTC RUU back on your phone

I have exactly the same problem...
I tried formatting the nand flash, seems to work.
(Vol down + enter + reset, then vol down)
(Note that you will loose all data on internal storage, too...)

Can't hard reset

I can't hard reset. All I have is a vodafone screen when I switch it on. Can I recover from this or is it a brick now.
Any advice.
thanks
Elaine

what exactly did u do
Did u try to flash your ROM ?
The set will not get bricked all of a sudden.
Remove the battery for a while and check it again

Put your device on bootloader and flash your device again (hardspl first, if you have not flash before) . Read the wiki to find your stock rom and how to flash if it is your first time.

thanks
I had not tried to do anything with my phone it just hung up after doing a soft reset because it had frozen up and the soft reset then froze also and then there was nothing.
I followed the advice suggested and my phone is now working.
thanks again
Elaine

Soft brick ??!!

hey guys,
I think my phone is bricked . I was trying to install a second rom with the help of Mithun's Rom Switcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425946) and when I tried to flash it it said no errors BUT when it shutdown the device didn't boot at all.
th thing that DON'T WORK is my display and my LED(it has to become purple before entering recovery), I already tried to connect the phone with flashtool doesn't see my device
the things THAT work are the LED(when I put in charger), hard reset with vibration(power + vol up 10sec) and hard shutdown with vibration(power + vol up 15sec)
please help me get any rom/recovery back
For the record I have a LTE version Xperia Z (C6603)

my communication with flashtool is restored(windows 8 driver reinstall resolved the communication) but I'm still unable to flash something.

Try SUS. You might lose everything but at least your phone will work.
Whoever said it can't rain all the time never went to England.

[Q] Cannot get Xperia SP into recovery.... Stuck on Sony Logo!

Hi there,
I'm still very new to this so I'm gonna try to describe this the best way that I can.
Basically I have a Xperia SP C5303 and I was getting frustrated of it being slow and keyboard failing to pop up - these are just a few of the issues I had with this phone. I had previously downloaded the 4.3 update for the phone. So basically I thought "let me try to update it to 4.4". So I google the update and put in on the SD card on the phone. So I enter recovery, and follow the instructions (wipe all user data) and then I go to install the "cm-11-20150412-NIGHTLY-huashan.zip" It then came up with an error saying it could not be installed. So i'm panicking here and did the mistake of restarting the phone. Now the phone is stuck on the Sony logo and I cannot get it into recovery no matter pressing the up and down volume button.
Can anyone please help me? I do not have a phone now and as a man I am not afraid to say it made me shed a tear or two a bit.... But anyways, if you can please help. Thank you you wonderful people.

Hello you managed to solve? or you still need help?

Hello my friend, I assume you´re on locked bootloader, right?
If it is so, you flashed the wrong Rom. Anyway, don´t panic - not a big problem.
When you have restarted your phone, you started it without any system. No wonder, that doesn´t work
Ok. let´s go:
First, you have to flash a new stock Rom. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311964
Second step - root it and install a recovery. Got to the thread of our Guru Doomlor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354704
read the steps carefully, so you can´t make any mistake!
Step three - on locked bootloader you can only flash a Rom for LBL!!!
If you want a CM11 Rom I recommend bagyusz´CM11 Rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735975
If you will follow all the steps you will have back an excellent CM11 Rom with much, much fun.
Goodl luck, reinipic.:fingers-crossed:

Hi, what do you mean with "tried all the steps"???
Did you flash a stock .ftf Rom with Flashtool?
It is nearly impossible to brick the XP.
Please give me more details, what you´ve done.

I've downloaded the .ftf file onto my laptop, but getting my phone to open the file is an issue because when i connect the SP onto the laptop, it switches on the phone but has been stuck on Sony logo for the past couple of hours. The Recovery_SP.zip and DooMLoRD are both not picking up the phone as plugged in on USB drivers.

ok. listen: give away the back cover of your phone - there ist down the RESET BUTTON! Press him for a few seconds, until the phone vibrates three times! Then ist is switched off.
Now you can start flashing

There is no hardbrick for xperia z , at least not in your situation.
Please try with an older firmware and keep in mind that for the phone to start the flash process you have less than a minute for the phone to be recognized by the pc before it restarts.
Good luck
