hello,
I recently flashed 5.1.1 ROM but soon realised that,it has no play store,no gapps.
OpenGapps didn't install either.
So i wanted to flash my old 4.3 ROM from flash tool.,but when i flash it phone turns on in between flashing.
How to fix it,and install 4.3 ROM.
Also if guys can give me a link to pure stock rom(no mods),in a zip file so that i can flash it via cwm,that will work too.
Thanks.

Since you have access to recovery, just flash the zip from here to get the pure unmodified stock ROM.
and if you still wanna flash a 5.1 ROM,
Flash this via fastboot mode on Flashtool,
You'll get access to TWRP,
From there, flash the ROM,
then Tangerine (if you don't want Tangerine, then flash zip from here to get only TWRP recovery)
then GApps.
One more thing..after i install any 4.3 rom,i get stuck in bootloop,but 5.1 installs perfectly and runs.
Why 4.3 is not installing.

I think its because of the recovery. Recovery for JB and Lollipop are quite different. So you have to flash stock ftf before trying any 4.3 ROM.
But bootloader is unlocked,and have flashed doomkernal v3.
What should i do?

Hi,
So I've got .266 based UB, on 4.4.2 Vanir stock kernel
Interested in updating to a 4.4.3 rom but got a bootloop trying to flash CM11+gapps through TWRP.
I think it's down to one of these issues:
- Do I have to update to latest firmware via ftf flash? (.201/205)
- Do I need to flash a certain kernel/boot.img before flashing the rom?
- Do I need to use a certain compatible recovery/version?
Any help with this would be much appreciated. Thanks
Just flash via fastboot kernel that works with vanir and then enter recovery - wipe everything and install from SD. Should work
Hi People,
I'm new here and I do have a problem over, as the title says, my Xperia Z (C6603) won't boot up anymore.
Yesterday I unlocked my bootloader, I also rooted my phone and installed Cyanogenmod 12 afterwards using TWRP, this was working perfect and stable.
Today I found out my phone wasn't rooted at all after I installed Cyanogenmod 12. So I wanted to start over again using this way (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/guide-how-to-root-10-5-1-0-283-t2872873).
So what I've basically done, I installed Xperiaz_10.5.A.0.230_kernel_only.ftf over the CM12 mod, after this my phone doesn't want to boot anymore, getting stuck at the the 'Sony' logo.
Tried to do TWRP -> Factory reset, but it didn't work.
Should I install a full .zip stock rom again instead of the FTF file to restore my old rom?
Kind regards,
xChillz
My root guide and the files provided there are for rooting the 2 stock roms in the thread title only.
You cannot flash a stock kernel onto a custom rom. This is why your device isn't booting.
You can get your device booting in a couple of ways:
1. Extract the boot.img from the Cyanogenmod rom zip and flash it using fastboot. This should allow you to boot into your CM12 rom again.
2. Flash a stock FTF. This will bring your phone back to complete stock. How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format

Thanks for the quick reply!
Could you tell me where I can get a 10.5.A.0.230 stock FTF or can I just Google it?
xChillz.
Thanks bro,
Installed the 10.5.A.0.230 stock FTF, then I installed CM12 and it works!

hello guys
I have the c6602, and running 4.4.4
I've just unlocked the bootloader and rooted my XZ
I want to install one of the new lollipop ROM's so i need a kernel that has a recovery mod to flash the ROM
the one i found is Doomlord's kernel [.230], but as i know [.230] doesn't work with 4.4.4, if it's just used to get the recovery into the device and be able to flash a ROM, what would be the next step after installing the ROM?
should flash a newer kernel? or it is automatically installed [integrated] in the ROM's zip file?
thnx
The new kernel is integrated in the zip file and will replace the current one when you flash the rom. You will also get the recovery that comes with it.
Im on cm11, and i want to downgrade to stock. I tried flash the stock rom flashable zip. It boot up but i get NokiaVariantManager has stopped and i cant do anything. It stuck at loading screen(after choose language).
So how can i fix it....please help... I dont have pc
Always make a twrp back up befor flashing a new rom.
Use any stock based custom rom for example, mine.
After that, use Nokia Care Suite and refurbish.

You can Flash the Stock based Roms Like NokDroid or Lollipop Mod Beta our Rom made by Symbuzzer..
so, i installed this rom
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga.../stock-nougat-7-0-downgrade-binary-3-t3863914
and my twrp got wiped from my phone and now i want to install it again but i can't
i have read the whole thread searching for a solution but it doesn't have one, but in that thread is mentioned that this rom doesn't let you flash twrp
so, there's a custom rom that i can install with odin only? or i'm screwed?
Sir, the rom you downloaded is stock rom. So if you flashed the rom the trwp will be dissapear.
Reflashing twrp might be help.

You Flashed stock ROM therefore it should replace custom recovery with Stock..
Since you are on stock, you might be able to get official updates thru OTA.
You can flash Twrp similarly as you did before
