Hello, i have an xperia z c6606 rooted 10.3.1.E.0.191 firmware 4.2.2 jellybean and my company is tmobile.
its the water resistant xperia phone so i cannot open the phone, its just abunch of slots on the sides. i dont have a micro sd card but it supports it (if a sd card can help my problem) o and my bootloader is locked
so thats all the information i know about the phone. heres my problem.
i used the "Font Installer ★ Root ★" application from the google play store.
i tried to install dark wedding font and it asked me to restart. after i did i just get the loop reboot where it shows the sony logo then xperia logo then redoes the boot again. im pretty sure it ruined my font folder and made it so i cant start but im not sure on what to do to try to fix it. im new to android and used the kingo one click root so i dont have exact insider knowledge on what to do.
i searched google for answer but either they are outdated (links dont work) or they mention other things in which i cannot figure out what to do.
i have a flash tool from d-h.st/Kb8 (thats a url)
and downloaded a stock rom from forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2511188
the rom is a ftf file and i have no clue what to do with it :3
If anyone could help it will be much appreciated.
(my computer runs ubuntu 12.4/windows 8 incase my computer is needed)
p.s. yes flashtool and rom is on my computer. blah
i just half ashed what i was doing a yolo'ed it and used the flash tool and tried to flash the rom onto my phone while in flash mode. it put the rom on and removed all my stuff which i dont mind. i just have to make sure my phone is fully functional. if not. ill edit this post.
Yup all fixed. sorry for wasting room on the forum. i really was lost. but i yolo'ed and BOOM yolo is the key to all lifes problems.

please tell me you installed xrecovery. if so then boot into xrecovery and restore a backup
option 2use pc companion to restore.
hi, i had x recovery installed on my x8 which was rooted, i had upgraded to froyo bread but was having issues with the camera, so i dowloaded a new rom, and tried xrecover to install the new rom. but kept getting md5 checksum errors.
i have just downloaded flashtools to try and re write the firmwear, but it wont see my phone.
its stuck at the sony erricson boot screen, and the flash tool is reporting the phone has usb de bugging turned off, so i guess it wont let me re flash the firmwear
ok. got pc companion trying to update the phone, fingers crossed
I think this might help you...
can you boot into recovery again??

Thank you
hello again, thank you for your help. my phone is now opperational again.
i used pc companion to re write a copy of the original firmwear, and everything is now working fine, just as it was when i purchased it new. phew.
cant thank you guys enough.
i was actually trying to change my os when this happened. from froyo to gingerbread. the version i downloaded used md7?? (i am new to all this and dont fully understand) but my phone was looking for md5, something like that.
got the fun job of rooting it again now lol.
what is the best android version for the x8 that still alows for the use of the camera?

Flashtool?
- Grab it, enable USB-Debugging on your phone, connect it to the computer.
- Press "Ask root perm" and keep an eye at your phone - you need to confirm a superuser request.
*Achievement unlocked*
- Press the now unlocked "xRecovery" button to inject xRecovery
And remember that you can also root your phone from Flashtool.
PC Companion... Update Service... Hah!... Useless crap since we got Flashtool... Sony Ericsson doesn't release any more updates for the X8 anyway, so it's kinda useless as the Android drivers can be installed manually without the need to install PCC or SEUS.
So I got myself into really funny situation I'm stuck.
I worked with xperia mini pro everything was fine.
Now I got x8 well older one... And all i did was rooted it with flashtool.
Everything was working fine from that point with root rights like root uninstaller (I just tested didn't deleted anything).
And then I made "factory reset" Deletes everything from sd card and bla bla bla well you guys know what i mean.
After that I wanted to install kernel but it's not that easy. So I first read alot and did not do that. Since it would require bootloader unlock and thats pain with 11W29.
So just after factory rest somehow I bricked my phone...
But it's interesting brick... VERY INTERESTING.
It turns on, it has flash mode. I can update it via update setup and tried to do that.
Nothing helps all I get is :
phone loading normally, then there is no menu, not sony ericsson home, not go launcher, no settings available no nothing...
To explain my problem i will upload screenshot.
And I can't flash it now since it's not bootloader unlocked.
And I can't access anything from phone.
This is what you call hard brick?
Hard brick is when You can't turn on phone, so there isn't any way to install ROM again. In Your case it's strange soft brick, cause it looks like ther isn't any launcher If You can enter into flash mode than You should reinstall stock ROM and kernel using flashtool (with version 0.2.9.1 cause it's more stable with older devices, such as x8).
Its not bricked. / You can use android commander to push recovery.
It's stock already and I tried stock launcher via updatesetup of SE,
And I think i need bootloader unlock to flash it ? or I'm wrong.
And Later on i will try with older version of flashtools
thx for answers guys.
No, unlocked bootloader allows You to install custom kernels, but some ROMs works also with stock SE kernel, so You don't have to unlock bootloader to install custom ROM or back to stock ROM
So i'm back again on same problem....
I have a Question if you wanna flash phone from flashmode u don't have to have unknown sources and debugging turned on.
Since i can't do that...
My following actions :
I will try to install fresh win7 32bit, since now i'm on 64 and on this system i was working with mini pro xperia, so maybe that may be the case...
I'll try to flash it with older version of flashtools 0.2.9.1 I guess if i remember it right (but on this windows OS It gives me : Error Flashing. aborted)
And I installed flashtools drivers and everything i'm 100% sure of that.
What I tried :
I also tried flashing it from Linux / ubuntu . same as with windows i get :
Error flashing. Aborted.
PCC gives me error when i try to repair it.
Update Service Dose everything as normal but same problem remains I don't get launcher or something just that empty desktop
And I would love you guys if you would give me few links to stock firmware of
x8 11W29 / E15i
And if you have something else to suggest please help me ;D

Hello and thanks for your reply. I tried flashing my x8 with provded ftf file and the problem still remains the same. If it is any help i can normally increase volume, access emergency calls and keyboard and other things. But the screen remains blue. And i also remember that the thing which is supposed to appear here is the language setup, if there is any way to set up main language outside android system i guess that could help.
Again thanks for your reply and your time!

No luck with sus. Tell me more about flashtool, I don't know a lot about it.
you need to download flashtool. its here in the xperia forum or googling "xperia flashtool" should give you what you need. then you need an ftf file of the firmware for your phone. again you should be able to find it here. go to c:/flashtool/drivers (on your pc) to install the adb drivers for your phone. use flashtool (from power off holding volume - anf plugging in to usb) to flash the ftf for your phone (67 fw preferred) and if you used the right ftf file for your phone (shoot download a few so you can play Round) it should reset like brand new.

Answers to your questions:
I cannot boot my phone, no lights, no vibration etc.
My computer does recognize it as QHSUSB DLOAD
No, i cannot get access to fastboot/flashmode/recovery.
And no, i do not know why my phone ended up like it did. I was playing a game one time and it never booted again.
What I intend to do.
1. I'm going to try and boot from the sdcard.
2. If 1. fails i'm going to try and use QPST to get the phone going again.
3. If 1. and 2. fail, i'm bringing out the baseball bat. :laugh:
Unfortunately, I have the same problem So far I have not found any solution
this is Xperia ZR forum. ask moderator to move your question to proper section

Download flashtool (just Google it)
Install it and the drivers which are contained in installation directory. If you use Windows 7+ then additional steps are required to install drivers. Its very easy again Google it
Download ftf file for your Xperia Z1
Be sure to download correct version of ftf. Check the model number of z1 and download it
Its recommended to keep battery charge atleast 40%+.
Now open flash tool switch off your phone
Click on the lightning symbol on top left of your screen and select flash mode and click ok
Browse through and select downloaded ftf file and wait for a dialogue box with phones animation to appear it may take some time to extract ftf file so be patient.
Do as dilogue box says and done..!!
