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.
Press thnx if I helped.

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.

Sure~
i was following the step that found in XDA

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2154310
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~

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------
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??

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.

hello greg, hows the z1, hope you enjoy it
thanks for your many many support to all questions here, hope it wasnt that frustrated when people not tried out what you suggested :silly:
to sash89: you unlocked bootloader, and flashed an cm img kernel? that let me comes to another question. you flashed that kernel above a stock rom, or you flashed CM ROM also?

Yes, it does help if people try things you suggest.

yes, open up a command window where you have adb and fastboot installed on your PC.
If you do not have them installed then download and install this

By definition a hard brick is not recoverable.
OK, try this.
Code:
adb devices
and tell me what that says.
Also, download and install flashtool from the first thread in the dev section. Open the driver folder from the installation path and run drivers.exe. Choose flashmode, fastboot and TX drivers.
Then run flashtool and attach the phone, disconnect and try attaching in flashmode, disconnect and try to attach in fastboot. Then copy and paste the output from flashtool here.
One final thing, try to attach again in flashmode but this time do this.
Press and hold volume up, attach USB cable, keep pressing volume up and now press the power button. Hold both buttons for 10 seconds or until the green LED comes on. Tell me what happens.

Your warrenty is void because you unlocked the bootloader.

when you put charger in, is it loading the battery the usual way like it did before you broke your handy?
also you not answered one of my previous posts, you flashed the CM kernel without flashing any CM rom. you on stock sony rom or on cm when mistake happens?

Well I explain you my problem.
Since I installed last saturday the last 4.3 ROM thanks to Doomlord, I noticed my phone doesn´t charge while in power off, it just doesn´t respond to the cable charger, I tried with several cables, wall chargers, via PC,... with no result, also looking for a solution I also noticed it doesn´t also respond to comands with volume buttons so it can not boot to flashmode and fastboot using the normal way.
booting to flashmode or Flashmode is not an issue as I found a way of doing it actually a couple of them, I will explain them just in case somebody is in a similar problem than me...
Via software Using flashtool (flash/fastboot) the aplication can force the phone to boot in fastboot via adb, using PCcompanion, (flash/repair) when it checks the phone after downlodaing the firmware it forces the phone to reboot in flashmode (in my case it doesn´t it just powers off and gets stucked but just pressing the power button it does, once booted in flashmode you can open flashtool and flash the desired ROM)
Via Hardware As I said it doesn´t respond when I plug in the cable but with the cable connected to the computer and pressing volume UP/down and power until it vibrates it will boot to flashmode or fastboot.
Now lets go back to my main problem...
I have being doing several things in order to solve it with no luck...
1º flash .278 kernel with recovery thanks to sj8023ld
2º Downgrade to .145 Xperiment custom ROM
3º Downgrade to .141 oficial using flashtool (result bootloader allowed: no" when it was unlocked before)
4º Flash again .141 with flashtool (bootloader again unlocked)
5º relock bootloader and flash with PCcompanion (flash/repair)
6ºFlash .145 oficial using Flashtool
7º Unlock bootloader, Root (easyrooting toolkit Doomlord) and CWM V9 by davidmarco.
Now I am again in 4.3 leaked with root and .278 kernel
After doing all this I couldn´t find a solution, Do you know guys if I can do anything else?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance

No, sorry, when powered on it is recognized as normal and on power off it is not detected at all
I have problems in my stock fw with charging while powered off. Does not at all, quite the inconvenience. However if you hold the power button my charge light comes on until my phone has enough juice to power up (well it doesn't have enough juice ever, but I quickly put into airplane mode till it charges a but more...)

Reinstall flashtool and the drivers and try it again.
Just for your information: SUS and PCC method won't work because the unlocked bootloader. You can just use EMMA and flashtool to repair your XZ now.

You were replying to a post that concerned Flashtool failing to flash, so by logic I assumed that your question concerned that only.

I don't think so because this happened to me long ago when I tried to unlock bootloader.But I did something to the driver to work adb properly and it worked.And now I forgot that method and couldn't find in google also.So I'm really in big trouble.I just don't know why when I want to flash the stock rom and flashtool show in popup to power off the phone and press vol down button and connect to computer using usb cable but vol button don't work or not give any signal to computer.So I can't flash the rom.
Go to sony official site and download drivers.. ZR drivers dont exist but you can use drivers for Z, install those on your computer and use the fastboot method again and you should be fine.. Your phone is only soft bricked.. Hard brick is when there are absolutely no life in the phone at all.. Use a boot.img you know will work and no need to flash stock ROM once you're in recovery.. Unless you want to of course.. Custom ROM will boot your phone just fine
Also take your battery out and re-insert to make sure your phone is properly off.. Flashtool should also work after that

Unless you want to of course.. Custom ROM will boot your phone just fine
Also take your battery out and re-insert to make sure your phone is properly off.. Flashtool should also work after that

ZR driver exist in Sony developer website and I installed the driver but I don't know why my computer not recognizing my phone.My phone can turn into fastboot mode(blue light on when pressing vol up and connecting cable to pc) but when I type command "adb devices" the listed device is empty I mean no adb fastboot device found.I'm just asking the drivers are not working beacuse of windos 10?Actually when after I use custom rom I couldn't connect my phone to pc.So any driver can fix this problem?I searched really hard on google but couldn't find any proper sloutions.

Windows 10 is a pain to install drivers into.. But use fastboot in flashtool instead of flasmode.. Should recognize your phone and flash the boot image from there

I know you are trying to help me but I tried everything and nothing is working.I installed driver from flashtool but still no clue why pc not recognizing my phone.My phone is like a live junk.My phone soft bricked many times and I could recover my phone with flashtool so I know what to do but this problem is way more confusing.I just need to know what is causing this issue.
You've managed to install the drivers inc the lagan drivers in flashtool and connected your phone in fastboot mode with flashtool running and flashtool still don't recognize your phone? I've done that loads of times even with no drivers installed and flashtool has been able to recognize the device in fastboot.. If that's the case, then I'm sorry I'm not able to help any further as flashtool has always been my failsafe when things have gone wrong.. Adb and fastboot are usually no help for me in Windows 10..

Flashtool is the best tool to recover soft bricked phone I know but this problem is way more complicated.
Thanks that you tried to help me.I hope I'll figure it out some time later.

My problem was created because local charger damaged my phone battery.So I couldn't turn on my device like yours.I replaced the battery and charger from Sony Center and now my phone is good as new.So Try to use other good battery(small or similer size that suites to your phone's battery pin)and see if your phone turns on without any issue.Then you can target the problem.
