Xperia Z c6603 4.4.2 advice needed - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I recently bought myself the xperia z to play with, I don't have a computer so couldn't root it how I'm used to doing it (I'm not new to rooting, custom roms and kernels etc)
So yeah, like a fool I updated it to 4.4.2 without thinking, and it's mega and I mean MEGA slow!
I wasn't to test roms and kernels on it, but for love nor money, it will not go into recovery mode, searched Google, tried all recommended ways but nothing, just boots up normal :annoying:
I've rooted it with towelroot, which was successful, installed SU and BusyBox etc. Tried using rom manager to get a recover installed but just says there isn't one available :-/
Also tried flashify but again, nothing, just crashes after a few mins of what I presume it is searching.
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong please? All help would be massively appreciated.

Maybe you are new to sony devices because these devices do not have a separate partition for recovery.
Try THIS for TWRP
AND
Is it really that slow compared to 4.2.2 ??

Oh do they not? Google has mislead me then. Yes I'm fairly new to sonys, owned a few but never before rooted etc.
And yes, it is ridiculously slow, I have to reboot it like every 30 mins since updating from 4.3.
Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated

Okay, so I read through all the info withing the link you gave me, from my understanding, I can't add a recovery as I don't have a computer to do so?
I've read on other sites that you can flash then manually through stock recovery, evidently not though :-/

You don't need a PC.
Just download XZRecovery.apk from the link I gave you and install it on your phone.
Open XZRecovery app on phone and then click 'install recovery '
Thats it. Done you have recovery.
Sony phones don't come with stock recovery at all.
And yes I just updated to 4.4.4, the phone just lags alot lot.

Tried that and it failed, also, my phone will not boot now, just keeps on vibrating, from experience I think its to do with the kernel, but no computer to fix it

[Q] Sony Xperia Z bricked after custom 4.3 Rom

Hi All,
Hoping for some advise and hopefully a fix. Been scouring these forums for 4 hours and cannot find a problem the same as mine or one that seems like it would fix.
I've always stuck to nexus phones in the past so the xperia z is new to me. picked it up this weekend but i've already had enough of sony's custom skin so thought i'd get a custom rom.
I updated to the latest software version using the pc suite and then used the xperia z root tool (v16).
After this i downloaded root checker and verified i was rooted
i then downloaded cwm recovery and installed
i then downloaded the 4.3 google edition rom for the xperia z, put it on the sd card and went into recovery, selected it from sd card. said it all installed ok so selected reboot...
after this it didnt come back on and just vibrates once when you press the power button. tried the hard reset thing where it vibrates 3 times but after this it does nothing.
it isnt recognised when plugged in to pc and the only sign of life that i can see is the light flashing red when plugged in as if charging.
Any ideas? never had something not switch on at all before.
Is your bootloader even unlocked?
4.3 roms and all other roms with non stock kernels cannot be flashed on a locked device.

Easy. Just repair with SUS
or
Download flashtool, and download the corresponding firmware you need (should be .ftf format) (i.e. if your a UK generic user download UK generic ROM) and flash the firmware.
fixed
Thanks guys. Flashtool got me back up and running.
Now, just because I'm obviously a complete tool does anyone know off the top of their head if it is actually possible to put the Google edition 4.3 on here after all of that or should I quit while I'm ahead???

It is an advanced build of 4.3 based on CM 10.2.
Remember to fastboot flash boot.img of kernel before flashing it form recovery.
If all that seems too complicated then i advice you don't attempt it right away, read around the XDA forum and familiarise yourself before attempting to brick your phone :silly:
Dude does your bootloader unlocked? If not maybe it cause u a soft brick. Try to flash the original ftf for xperia z use the latest flash tool then reflash it. Hope it helps you. Btw welcome to the SONY world ;p

Sony Xperia TX - CWM problems

Hello everyone,
Well, I have Sony Xperia TX for 2 days now. I've read on several forums that it supports JB 4.3. However, when I go to update it, it says my OS is up to date and I'm running ICS 4.0.4. Can't really understand that.
Other problem is whenever I try to install CWM it says it's installed and when I reboot my phone and try to enter it (consistently tapping volume down key) it just boots the phone normally, no cwm no nothing. I've tried multiple solutions and I'm still stuck at the start. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
Cheers!
Try updating usin Sony Update Service.
Already did, still says it's up to date.

I've flashed 4.3 via Flashtool and it couldn't start at all. Just vibrates once and that's all. Now I can't start it at all lol. Why it doesn't support 4.3 when it's officially said it can. I'm going nuts over here!

4.4.2 reboot issues?

No matter which 4.4.2 I choose to install, I run into random reboots when the phone is locked. It never occurrs when the screen is awake. When it reboots it also refuses to go to recovery, unless it fully boots and then Restart it again. Is this a firmware issues? I got no clue what to do,

see if that does any good.also check if the xposed module is compatible with your firmware

yeah, I decided to do another fresh install. I changed my stock ftf, and also downloaded the ROM again. But my phone is still bugging, I've attached a system log, I don't know much about development so I'm not sure if it even has the answer in it.
I've noticed it only resets if the the phone is locked, so I let the app record the log and just waited for it to reboot again.

So far so good, system has been running for 24 hours [ new record for me ]
I had PM's @Rajeev for help. At first his instructions didnt work, then i realized my error.
So first, format phone from recovery [ complete wipe] and then install completely stock [ no root] 4.4.2
i used this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/ftf-10-5-0-230-c6602-c6603-journalist-t2759636
Once installed, use towelroot app to root. After root, install SuperSU from play store, and then install nut dual recovery.
next i flashed existenz, with NO WIPE. do not wipe using twrp or ready to install new rom using phils touch, just go ahead and flash the rom. So far no problems.
Once again thanks again to @Rajeev and @niaboc79
I have GEM, Serjar Xperia, and a couple of other xposed modules, and still no restart. will keep updated in case it happens.

have you run into any solutions? I've reverted back to 4.3 rom, and i got no problems

Help! Mine died too!

I think I have a battery problem.
A couple of days ago it just started bootlooping out of the blue. I can get into Recovery and reflashed ROM (beanstalk). Didn't help. I flashed stock (newest .283) in flashtool. It flashes ok but still will not boot past SONY screen.
After doing this several times here's what I see: It will boot fine and allow me to setup/install/update without problem, but *only* when connected via USB to my computer. The moment I unplug (even though battery reads 50% or 72% or 99%---I've done this many times now) it shuts off like you flip a switch either immediately or within 2 minutes of unplug. I reset (via power and vol up) and I get a SONY screen and then all goes dead again. Will not boot w/out USB plugged in.
Maybe a red herring, but it seems consistent now.
Any thoughts? No recent drops/water/new app install prior to problem that I'm aware.
Thanks--
Dave

How would PC Companion be any different than Flashtool? I thought both rebuild the partitions when flashing ftfs. I used Flashtool for the Stock flashes and TWRP for the Beanstalk flash. Again wiping everything each time.

PCC won't work with unlocked BL. But it's the same thing, PCC or Flashtool, so if you have the same problem after reflashing it via Flashtool it's probably a hardware problem. ( battery or mbo)

[Q] Xperia T Dead

Hey guys. I was trying to install Cm10 on my sister's xperia T. I rooted it, installed recovery, wiped everything but after I flashed CM and clicked reboot, the phone is dead. I can't turn it on, I can't enter recovery mode, the PC isn't recognising it. If I push the on/off button it vibrates once but then nothing and if I push at the same time power on and volume up, it vibrates three times but then again nothing.
I know I forgot to do something while installing the ROM but please any piece of help might be extremely useful as I ended up with a dead phone and nothing I can do.

Did you unlock the phone's bootloader? Because custom roms like cyanogenmod require an unlocked bootloader for xperia phones. Also, try using the flashtool to revive your phone. This sounds pretty much like a soft brick. If I'm right, it's 100% guarandeed you can bring the phone back to life.

Are there other errors above the ones seen there?
What ROM did you Flash? Maybe you could try with ones found here on XDA.
Also, when you start up the FlashMode process in Flashtools, is your phone already connected?

Yes it was a problem caused by the ROM I was trying to install. I found one with stock 4.0.4 and flashed it and finally it came back to life.
And in fact it is faster than when it was running 4.3.3

Guess what: if you don't like the 4.04, you can find official 4.3 firmware files in this site. There's a collection of these things. Just search for them.

Thanks for the tip. In fact I'll make another effort to install CM and this time I'll make sure to follow every step properly. But comparing the two editions, I think 4.0 is smoother than 4.3.
