After I unlocked boot loder on my Xperia ZR (C5502) I download the CW11 rom, I flashed the boot.img from the CW11 zip.
Then i went to the Recovery, I Wiped Cath and Data, Installed the Rom, Gapps and after rebooting the rom logo keeps loading and loading for ever!
I tried the AOKP Rom and the Beanstalk but same problem there.
Help!

Hello everybody!
I used to have a working stock firmware 2.67 Android 4.2.2, but I decided to unlock my bootloader.
I did the operation twice and then I encountered bootloop issue.
I downloaded a stock firmware and flashed it using Androxyde Flashtool.
Oh god! The firmware FTF file was corrupted.
I AM sure that it was corrupted.
Next up, I booted my device but it won't let me inside: Just the SONY screen and a black screen and afterwards and it goes off.
Then I flashed CWM Recovery as a boot.img file. After that I entered (luckily!) the CWM recovery, Cleaned Cache and performed Hard reset and installed the CyanogenMod 10.2 Yuga Nightly (or sth like that) as a zip. It said that it had been successful.
Despite that, when I rebooted device through CWM, I got the CyanogenMod boot screen( a blue orbit moving around) and it shows that forever!
What is wrong with my smartphone?
How can I fix this thing without a fresh installation of the stock firmware?
And if you flash cm again without wipe data?
Do you tryed to flash only an other kernel?
Tipp: always do Backups before flashing new CFWs.
I unlocked my ZR's bootloader and tried installing these roms:
Carbon Rom
Beanstalk
LiquidSmooth
But after installing any of these, my phone wont boot completely.
It goes past the SONY screen and loads the animation of the rom that i flashed, the animation still goes on - it is not stuck.
This goes on for like half an hour and still does not go any further.
I will explain the steps i followed.
1. Unlocked bootloader
2. flashed the boot.img of the corresponding rom
3. booted to recovery -- vol up
4. Wipe data/ fac reset
5. wipe cache partition and Dalvik
6. installed the rom and rebooted
Is there anything else i am missing here ?

You have to boot the stock firmware first.
Flash a stock rom
Boot it properly
Turn off the phone
Flash the custom rom kernel using fastboot
Do your wipes
Install the custom rom zip
The phone should boot properly now

I followed your instructions.
I flashed a .310 rom first and rooted it.
then unlocked my bootloader -- i got a bootloop
I powered off the device and flashed the rom's kernel and wiped everything except external sdcard
booted to recovery and flashed the rom and rebooted.
I am getting the same issue.

Hey guys spent about 8 hours today attempting to root, unlock bootloader, install custom recovery (TWRP), install custom ROM (PAC ROM) and custom kernel (MEOW).
I got as far as installing TWRP but for whatever reason the OS got deleted while flashing it. So now I have no OS and its stuck in bootloop. All I can access is TWRP. How do I get it out of bootloop and reinstall the original Android 4.3 OS with Sony's bloatware? After I reinstall the original OS/ROM. I'll attempt to install PAC ROM and Meow and g-apps
How do I reinstall the original OS/ROM and get it out of bootloop?
How do I install PAC, MEOW and G-APPS?
Please provide links or instructions thank you.
Somebody please help me!

Same problem
Bump; same problem
Will post if I solve it
EDIT:
OK, to solve I simply copied the Cyanogenmod install .zip to my microSD card, mounted that while in TWRP, then installed it.
I then downloaded the mini Gapps package, installed that, and all was right as rain.
All of this meant that I didn't have to re-root, which was a pain for me on a mac, and I didn't have to go through too lengthy a process either.
Thanks for the info androidfreak70, but I didn't need it this time.

I was curious about installing custom roms so i decided to try. I successfully had rooted my phone and unlocked the bootloader and i just needed CWM recovery so that I could install CM11 custom rom. I didn't put the custom rom on my phone because I'd figure I would do it after installing CWM but after flashing CWM, I couldn't even go into my stock rom! I tried everything from formatting the cache to the data, I even have TWRP flashed as well but no luck there. I don't want to mess with my phone anymore because I am quite frankly, scared. So all I want to do is remove CWM and TWRP recovery, and flash my stock rom. Oh, and I tried to flash the stock rom with flashtool, that didn't work either
Thanks for the help!
UPDATE: I DOWNLOAD ALL THE DRIVERS FOR FLASHTOOL AND TRIED INSTALLING MY STOCK ROM THROUGH FLASH BOOT AND IT WORKED! SO FAR SO GOOD.
UPDATE 2: ITS WORKING. ALL I DID WAS LOCK MY BOOTLOADER WITH FLASHTOOL AND FLASHED THE STOCK ROM!
I think you could mount the usb storage from CWM, so you could copy the rom you wanted and install it? You could have saved a lot of hassle loool
Hi,
i want to flash any custom rom via recovery. I have unlocked c6903 with .108, i am using latest z1-lockeddualrecovery installed using towelroot method. Any flashing with twrp or philz cwm ends with success message, but when i reboot device it vibrate once only and stay with black screen. i tried to flash a lot of different roms, or just kernel only, for .108 (Z1_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-108_v05). Everything ends with black screen.
I am getting back with flashtool and ftf flash of original rom.
What i am doing bad??
Thanks a lot for reply.
that is recovery issue. choose another version of dualrecovery on NUT's site and reflash it.
not working
hi.. still not works..tried 2.8.15, 2.8.19, 2.8.20
i have rooted and installed recovery via installer, when rebooted to recovery, i wiped data/factory reset, then installed rom from zip, checked checksum and after reboot black screen. I tried to flash recovery after flashing rom but without change.
