I don't know much about rooting but hear me out. I rooted my device successfully and was using it for a month or two. Decided to change the ROM which stopped letting me go into recovery mode. Whenever I tried to go into recovery mode on my device, it would just start it up normally. I thought maybe if I flash a new 'img' to the device it would fix it. So I used flashify and used a Clockwordmod recovery img which I downloaded on the internet. That's when the issue occurred. It Flashify came up with a sign saying it needs a reboot so obviously I rebooted it but now it doesn't turn on, it gets suck of the white HTC screen and does absolutely nothing! Help me out?

Can you get into fastboot by holding down vol- and pwr?
Can you give me the exact link of the cwm image you flashed?
To what partition did you flash the cwm image?

I can go into fastboot but lets say I try to do something like reboot the device, it would just reboot but freeze at the loading screen. If I try to open recovery mode, It freezes on a HTC screen which says Entering recovery and nothing happens even after a long time!
Here is my device in fastboot
Not sure which img it was but I googled something along the lines of clockworkmod img download. I don't mind resetting the whole phone if there is a way to do that? and thanks for your interest!

Here is my story. I've been at this for three hours including searching XDA and other sites. Can't get any options to work.
I was trying to gain S-OFF. I installed a custom recovery (TWRP) and in doing so I could not see any files to flash the new rom... I tried flash CWM, it ended up booting to the CWM text at the bottom left with the version number, and then booting to the plain white (with htc one logo) screen and sitting there and not booting into anything else. Just sits there. Every recovery I flash through fastboot (which is my ONLY option into the phone it seems) does not boot up, the device just restarts to that annoying HTC logo screen.
I was able to get ONE recovery of twrp working and it boots up into it and displays all the options, HOWEVER, it cannot mount... Nothing will mount via twrp.
What can I do?
Screenshot of twrp attached

Flash twrp 2.6.3.3. Then run the fastboot erase cache. You should be able to get into recovery then. Any partitions that won't mount you will have to wipe in recovery. Then you can either adb sideload or adb push a Rom to your phone in recovery

That worked! You just fixed my phone! :laugh:
You sir are an :angel:
I had just about given up hope Awesome, learned something, too!
Looks like all TWRP features seem to work even install zip or flash rom.
Any ideas on the S-OFF? I can't seem to get it I tried Revone and Firewater. I have 1.56 HBOOT none of the options I''ve looked have worked.
Good to hear. What message do you get with firewater? If you get the whelp this sucks message only sunshine will work. Which will cost you $25
Please help, I Need your help!!!!!!!
I made a sh*t thing, I went to recovery mod (phil'z touch), I deleted /system, /boot and then I clicked on reboot recovery and guess what, the phone doesn't let go either in recovery nor bootloader mode!!! I don't know what to do, the phone is not either recognized by the pc!!!!!!!
Please I really don't know how to proceed further!!!

how do I put it in flash mode!? sorry but I'm really confused because it boots, but it stays stuck on "sony" screen!!!
With phone off, press volume down and connect usb cable connected to pc (drivers should be previously installed), when the led change color, release volume button. Done, you're in flash mode, now just flash tft (do it fast before your battery runs out)

Your phone has fastboot and FLASH modes.
Put it in FLASH mode (volume down) and the hit the lighting icon and flash a new firmware.
Don't worry, Sony phones are (almost) unbrickeable, just don't run out of battery.

So, first attempt was unsuccessfully because I tried to NOT wipe the user's /data and I got a bootloop in the end.. I'm newly trying to flash the firmware with all the wipes ticked... I'll let you know, thanks in advance for your support
edit: the phone booted up this time, and now it works!!
I know many users like myself got fed up of the white bright screen that comes up when we boot up the phone or when we charge the phone.
So I created this logo.bin
Which has a Avengers Boot Logo which is not a bright and it also has dark battery low indication when the phone is switched off.
THIS OBVIOUSLY REQUIRES ROOT.
You wont lose any data by doing this. This is very safe but if your device goes haywire I am not responsible for it in anyway. But yeah it is safe.
Note - Your device might take longer time to boot the FIRST TIME AFTER YOU FLASH THIS so don't panic.

}
Step to Flash the Logo:-
1. Download the logo.zip
2. Boot the phone into fastboot mode or reboot into bootloader.
3. Extract the logo.bin in logo.zip file and put it into the folder which has the adb file.
4. Press shift and right-click and click on "Open Command Window here".
5. Connect your phone to the computer via USB and type,
'fastboot flash logo logo.bin'
6. Wait for the program to flash the file and "OKAY" will be displayed in the command window.
And also I got the Marvel & DC theme boot animation from this thread:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/bootanimation-android-5-0-l-boot-t2814467
This has many QuadHD Resolution boot animations which we can use in our phone.
Download : https://mega.nz/#!T1RFiIrb!MJ2BnsGFTiA7vB_5rWtzXrEAfA5f8hBRY47ceRi8ufQ
Steps for boot animation :
1. Download the bootanimation.zip
2. Put the zip in /system/media and replace the original zip.
3. Change the permission to -rw-r-r-
4. Done.
I'll be trying this as soon as I get home. I think the new boot animation is neat, but don't care for having bright unlocked boot message, and then another bright boot animation.

Looks like the CM recovery.. You have a chance of making CM work if you put whatever it is you are trying to flash into your internal storage and not to sdcard..
Please give some more info on what you are trying to do?

No brother.. in fastboot (not flashtool) use this command: fastboot flash system system.img
Press enter
and when it's done sending the system img, use this command: fastboot reboot
press enter
Your phone should now reboot..
Can you please tell me where you downloaded the ROM from bro? I'll have a look
i use fastboot this is what it said
UPDATE: my volume down button is broken, i flashed boot.img from cm12, go to recovery and install cm12

so flash CM12.1, RR, Validus, Slim, a bunch of ports and RR/CM13 bro.. Stable as are most if not all the ROM's here in the ZR section..
no way all time same results
when it power on there all many horizontal lines on the screen, i tryed to flash bootloader but no succes
Phone stuck rebooting over and over
Power+Vol down > doesn't show fastboot
Power+Vol up > doesn't show recovery (was twrp)
can't turn off the phone, had to wait like 8 hours because I thought maybe I could reach fastboot mode after it runs out of battery, once I plug it in the pc, it continues to loop even if I don't press the power button
I had a custom rom (PixelPlusUI) but i'm not sure that a part of the problem.
I don't care about the data, I just want to be able to reach fastboot so I can install stock rom or be able to do anything.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: This video helped me fix it:
Yep I also got hard bricked by Pixelplusui I also wrote a text guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ricked-redmi-note-9-merlin-hard-brick.4347025

I managed to recover my phone and install stock miui rom, but couldn't get twrp recovery to work again.
I installed it a couple times (along with the vbmeta thingy) but it never worked and always booted into system, did you get it to work after you unbricked your phone?

Didn't touch it since then, you probably would have to downgrade your firmware before installing twrp

That's not firmware, look here https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/merlin/ but they are all the latest versions so idk, maybe the ROM also contains firmware? i guess, I think I read that somewhere on xda threads about downgrading
I just realized, by flashing the stock fastboot rom, the bootloader gets locked again, that's why the TWRP wont install, you have to unlock the bootloader again
