1)Make sure you bootloader are unlocked.
2) Make sure that the kernel match the software, You have to have an AOSP kernel for a AOSP build, for that you will need to read the instuction that are provided by a particular developer, Usually kernel are provided and it can be recognised by .sin ; .img you may need to flash it first using flashtool then boot to recovery and flash the rest of the system. You may provide better description of the build that your are using , for the better help. I suspect that you have not unlocked the boot-loader

Xperia Z (Telstra AUS) stuck in bootloop but can access TWRP

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.

Flash the stock 4.4.4 via flashtool
Root and install dual recovery
Boot to TWRP
Go to wipe >> advanced wipe and select dalvik cache and cache and system and data
Install the ROM and GAPPS like any zip
Reboot system
Boot to CWM (PAC man has CWM not TWRP)
Wipe dalvik and cache
Install the Meow kernel
Done

Help, CM 11 Nightly BOOTLOOP on Xperia SP

I was on stock firmware (no root), i unlocked bootloader (but im not shure if i done it correctly, ithink that this is the problem), i downloaded and extracted boot.img and flash it via command prompt, installed zip file from sd card (cm-11-20140915-NIGHTLY-huashan) and now im stuck at cyanogenmod bootloop animation, i tried it several older version nightlys, same thing, ANY HELP PLEASE? And yes i tried factory data and wipe cache, no luck...
and yes i tried factory data and wipe cache, no luck...
I followed this guide here:
wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_huashan
Use the Edit/Delete button in the right down corner, no multi-post
Have u tried flash again Stock one? just to be sure ur BL is unlocked..... but I'm pretty sure it is due to bootloop in CM logo, not kernel one, what about CM11 from FXP for UBL?
yes my BL is unlocked, when i enter flashtool/BLU it said Relock, thats mean that is unlocked, right? Idont know to flash stock rom and where to find, and what do you mean with "CM11 from FXP for UBL", i downloaded cm11 from offical cite, from here https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=huashan&type=nightly
tried to flash another rom, the same thing happens!
Flash an FTF file using Flashtool...
Flashed stock rom (ftf), then repeat the procedure for CM11 installation and it worked, thanx for help !

Hello, I have seen, it is the first time you are installing a rom. So please be careful!
You must read exactly the Instruktions from the OP.
Hello,
2. Reboot to recovery(only TWRP/CWM Touch/PhilZ is supported)
Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2649923
CWR you have used does not work for flashing the rom :angel:
Btw, when you are flashing a rom for the first time, and you have less experience with roms you should to consider, if you take another rom. For the rom you choosed is still in Beta status!
Take a stable or nightly rom. Anyway you have at least to install CWR from the above Link.
Good luck!

I used an old version of CWM maybe thats why :crying:
YES!! I have the ones you recommended installed already!, :laugh:
So can i just install the latest nighly ??? (for me instaling is doing the installation from the recovery is the same as flashing?)
Im in stock rom so can't really understand about the kernel, if I install the nightly or these one, have the kernel included?, or do i have to install the kernel? (and how??? these step is done with flashtool right?)

Yes hou have had the wrong CWM. Herewith you can install (Flash=same) every rom you want (build for LOCKED BOOTLOADER)! Forget it with the kernel. On locked bootloader you cannot install any other kernel. The kernel you need for a rom is included in the rom!
And again: When you flash a new rom - read the instructions from the OP :fingers-crossed:
Cheers.

Problem Flashing Offcial Firmware

Hi, Dear xda members
Last week i soft bricked my Sony Xperia Z c6603
After flashing modified kernel, i lost everything
I couldn't reach recovery even couldn't flash one with fastboot(as my device was not recognized)
I tried flashing offcial firmware through flashtool. It succeeded flashing
But After reboot i had bootloob and the ROM didn't boot
Finally I had a solution to get my phone fixed. Here's what i did:
*Reboot to FlashMode
*In flashtool I flashed TWRP Recovery in FlashMode
Now all custom ROMs are working but when I flash an official and other ROM's based on official, I'm having bootloops
Tried to wait. NO result
Could you help me with it?
P.S the modified kernel was made by this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ot-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605/
When i softbricked my phone I tried to fix it according to this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...rick-sony-xperia-z-c6602-c6603-c6606-t3215134

I have several problems too including not being able to run stock anymore. (endless black screen after experia logo). I tried flashtool (latest stock via xperifirm), Sony's flashtool. Companion didn't even want to flash (UEGetPhoneInfoMissingInfo), and left me wondering wether something is corrupt.
I've been running CM's for a while now and was wondering why NFC was not working. Not sure if it needs an updated firmware or what.
Other problem I've seen is that "fastboot flash recovery" always gives an error. "fastboot flash boot" works (this is how I install TWRP).
Can I try zeroing mmcblk0 or would that brick it? (does it really need to have a TA partition to accept boot connection? How does Sony init it anyways?)
I think I have a mmcblk0 backup from after unlocking (DRM lost though) but perhaps that will give me a somewhat clean situation again. Or perhaps I can compare it.
Edit: dd-ed my old mmc backup and now Xperia Companion didn't give an error anymore, did a factory reset, and after a long wait of the blue waving animation, I got it to work.
Even NFC firmware update started after rooting and deleting /data/ucf folder.
Now I want to go back to Nougat xD
