I am not even able to boot into recovery mode!
I tried to run a repair on phone but each time i get update error. Phone still not switching on.

Does your phone have a locked or unlocked bootloader?

i haven't done anything to my phone since I received it, I didn't root it or anything so i assume it's locked!
ok so my phone is working now I tried everything all night long seriously nothing worked. Then I just gave up and went to sleep. I tried to repair it again in the morning after charging the phone all night long, and suddenly the repair was successful and my phone booted up Seems like the first update error drained all my battery power and it wasn't able to perform repair for that reason! But it's working now I'm on Lollipop and everything's working fine
Hello, my xperia Z C6603 screen isn’t turns on. The device isn’t rooted.
I disassemmbled the phone and I put the parts in a new frame. After reassembly, the phone worked fine with the new frame and screen and I used it about one week. Then I thought I flash a new lollipop firmware instead the kitkat because the lollipop wasn’t updateable yet in my firmware customization. So I flashed the newest lollipop 5.0.2. ( 10.6.A.0.454_1270-7298_R1E Central Europe1) stock firmware with the 0.9.18.6 flashtool and the things go badly.
The first boot was succesful but after the boot the screen went colorful and I saw nothing besides but if I pushed the volume up or down button I heard the volume sound. I turned of the phone by power on/off and volume up button and I tried to flash other firmwares. The flash methode is always succesful but the phone didn’t work. (I tried the 3 different android versions stock firmwares jb kitkat lollipop.) I used flashtool, emma and pc companion too with locked and unlocked bootloader.
I think the screen is work fine because sometimes after flash a firmware and I turn off the phone first the Sony boot logo is appear but after that nothing happen.
Is there anything else I can do, or is it hard-bricked?
Sorry for my bad English.
I heard you already unlocked your bootloader. How if you install any recovery and try boot onto it. If it success, try install any custom rom via recovery. Let me know the result.
I have my Xperia Z C6603 with Indian lollipop flashed. One day I told my sis to plug my phone to charger and I dont know what she doid, I think she pressed the power key and the phone rebooted. After a while when I checked my phone it had only black screen, no touch nothing was working. I force rebooted the phone and then it got stuck in boot loop. Then I had the Indian Kitkat firmware downloaded from here >>[FTF][4.4.4] Xperia Z (C6603) 10.5.1.A.0.283 Generic IN (India) - UPDATED<<. Flashing it that time gave me error because drivers were not installed, I installed drivers and then I flashed it, flashed successfully and then I started it, at the choice of Language, when I touched it, the screen went black smoothly and then nothing happened. I force rebooted it. Then I done a software repair from Sony's PC companion. I had lollipop then, it started and after powered by android logo, it went black smoothly and then nothing. Then I tried to flash the kitkat firmware again thinking that it might went bad that time. And now it again stuck in boot loop. At the language select, it went black smoothly and reboots. Please Help!!!

seems to be a hardware problem, maybe it got hit somehow... ?_?
So hello everybody, i've been scratching me head at this for a while now.
I have a sony xperia z whose micro-usb to usb port is broken and therefore my pc cannot recognize it.
Now, I am not sure if you've seen the phone but it comes with a secondary charger port kind of thing where it can charge through a dock, and thats what im using.
So i decided to root the phone using kingroot. I was following a guide that showed how to root any xperia device using kingroot and then replacing kingroot with superuser: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/general/root-xperia-running-lollipop-lb-ubl-t3123893
While updating the binaries it said installation failed and i tried looking at other guides. I stumbled upon this thread: https://androidmtk.com/replace-kinguser-with-supersu and followed it even after seeing the disclaimer thinking it would be alright. My dumbass thought everything would be fine and it was until it asked to reboot....
now i'm in a bootloop, with no way to connect it to my comp, and recovery mode not working for some reason (unless im doing it wrong, i dont know).
I believe the loop is a soft-brick (is that the term?) and it turns on shows the sony logo then says "powered by android" goes into the loading screen the stops, shuts off and repeats. I am on lollipop and desperately need help. I have a few school assignments due but can't get my mind off this lol.
ty for helping
Can you boot into recovery? Do you even have a recovery installed?
Flash new firmware use flashtool.. Now xperia z have MM rom..oh yeah
Sent from my C6603 using XDA-Developers mobile app
press and hold power and volume down for 10-12 secs till the phone vibrate 3 times.It will be switched off now.Flash a kernel with recovery included only if you have unlocked bootloader else use flashtool to flash stock firmware.
Hello guys,
I wanted to flash CWM on my Xperia SP. My phone is bootloader unlocked and rooted. When I wanted to flash CWM (by kernel.elf), my phone got stuck on sony logo (small logo). So I thought it was a good idea to flash back to stock (the one on this site C5303: http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/37-sony-xperia-sp-c5303). However, when I did that, an error occured in FlashTool and FlashTool aborted the operation. Now I'm stuck on the big Sony logo. When I connect my phone to the computer, it immediately goes into flash mode. Can somebody help me?
Kind regards,
Jelle
