Hi!
I have a Sony Xperia SP, and it was buggi and slow so i wanted to install cm12. After installing it said that i installed successfully bot the phone never booted again, so i reinstalled the custom sony rom. Something went wrong during reinstalling, and it aborted. Now the phone is stuck in a bootloop. At startup the sony logo appears, than the phone reboots. I think it's hardly bricked because:
-The phone is in bootloop.
-I cannot access recovery mode, because during rom reinstalling i lost my root privilege.
-Sony pc companion does not recognize my phone.
-When i try to flash the stock kernel on the phone, with flashtool (phone connected in flash mode), the phone always disconnects at Dumping TA partition 2.
-Cannot connect the phone in fastboot mode (not working with the right gutton combination).
-No software recognize my phone, just flashtool.
-ADB drivers didn"t work.
I tried everithing on win10, win7 and ubuntu 14.04 that i coud find on the internet.
Should i throw it down from a cliff, of you guys have any idea?
Try to flash your phone via flashtool v0.9.8.16
I can't beacuse flashing always aborts, as i wrote.
have you tried flashtool-0.9.18.6
New flashtool versions are different than old ones and do not work well at all, at least for me not
Good luck

Be sure to install drivers first and even test the flashmode before flashing anything if flashtool, to be sure that windows will not start to search windows update for drivers.
Oh GOD THANK YOU!!
It worked with flashtool 0.9.08.6 and now its working again.
Thanks agais!!! <3 :highfive:

Hi
You have to download towel root, to root 4.3, and install supersu to grant access. Then you have to install CWM. You can find instructions for that if your search how to root sony xperia sp. If your bootloader can be unlocked you can download and install the zip from cm site. If you can not unlock bootloader, you have to download and install something like ****UNOFFICIAL-lbhuashan.zip and thats gonna work. Cm11 and 12 works well on my device.
Good luck

DoomKernel hasn't been updated I think. Just flash the FTF again, and then flash the Alivanov's pre-rooted kernel with fastboot and then install CWM. You need unlocked bootloader though.

Get the Flashtool from here: http://androxyde.github.io/
Download a FTF from the Developer section which is for c5303 and of the version 245.
Then hit the lighting icon on Flashtool
Select Flashmode.
Select the FTF (which has to be in the firmwares directory of the Flashtool)
Let it prepare the files
Hold the volume down button and connect phone to PC
Hopefully it will get detected.
Then just follow instructions and let it complete everything.
Let me know what happens
Cheers.

what i normally do using philz recovery
1) wipe data ( complete wipe to install a new rom)
2) flash slimkat rom
3) flash slim gapps
4) as im having as c6902, i need to flash modules of c6902, hence, flash the modules provided in the monx thread in Xperia Z1 android development
5) flash superuser zip to gain root access later on
6) reboot

Hi,
I am using Xperia SP, C5302, with Android version: 4.3 and Firmware: 12.1.A.205. I want to install CyanogenMod 11 in my mobile.
Going though different tips and tricks, I was able to root my phone, as well as unlock the bootloader. However, I'm unable to install a custom recovery. It is advised everywhere not to proceed with installing any custom ROM without installing custom recovery.
Currently not able to install CWM recovery in my phone. Also when I tried to boot my phone into recovery, it is not working. Is it because there are no custom recovery installed?
If anyone can tell me how to install the custom recovery in my system, will be very helpful. I've tried installing ROM Manager from Play Store, but it is unable to recognize my device. Also Quick Boot app from Play Store is not able to boot into recovery mode. Also tried using Flashtool and fastboot, not working either. :crying:
Right now, I'm not able to proceed with installing CM11 ROM in my Xperia because I'm afraid I will not be able to boot into recovery mode and hence will not be able to complete the installation and ultimately end up with a bricked phone.
Any help will be greatly appreciated..!!

Thanks deathviper. Followed the instructions and got it installed. Also completed installing CM11 ROM in my Xperia. The link was very helpful. I also followed this link: http://www.teamandroid.com/2014/03/...11-xperia-sp-c5302-c5303-kitkat-custom-rom/2/ to install CM11 ROM in my Xperia SP.
Thanks again..!!

I've allways thought that a locked bootloader would break your boot to a non-stock kernel. I think I read it from doomlord.
Now I wonder if it only blocks fastboot...
Recently I saw a post about CM10.2 working on locked devices... Now you're saying the same, maybe it started working lately somehow...
Though... Sure you saw that work?
I'm about to relock my device and take my chances, should get to it
Update: You may not want to test something for the first time... This one is tested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2649923
It's a much longer way. To start with you must get root and CWM recovery on 4.1.2, only to get ROOT on 4.3.

instal stock rom ..
The phone should boot ok if you remove the sd card or take away the extra partition you made on it.
To get foldermount to work ok i think you need to install the fixed recovery, not sure wich one it was though.

Just install fresh stock from or else repair using Sony's pc companion.

install latest recovery buy NUT and flash reboot fix
---------- Post added at 05:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------
install latest recovery buy NUT and flash reboot fix zip through recovery mode
Only way to recover Bootloop is repair via Sony PC COmpanion or install ROM using flashtool.
I have run through this issue in past, and was able to recover using PC companion.
