Bootlop with a purple light.If I hold the volume up button I can get into twrp. Hope with this info you can help me out.
Twrp has to be flashed in custom recovery or with the install script on Windows.
Now you have to flash your firmware with flashtool again and you have to root it again.

Somehow found my way around it. I flash a custom Kernel and miraculously brought my phone back to life.

Hi everyone, I'm having a weird issue since this morning and could not solve it yet, maybe someone can help me.
Basically I tried to dirty flash the new nightly of CM12.1 using TWRP 2.8.6.0 and it got stuck. After rebooting the device I could not get to twrp anymore (strangely) and then I tried to reflash it (two different versions) with no success.
With my device being in this state (without booting into OS and with no recovery access) I had to download the stock 5.0.2 for the XT1068 and flash it using fastboot. It can now boot up normally into stock ROM and restored the stock recovery, but now any custom recovery I flash it does not work. I had two different results on two versions of twrp:
2.8.5.0 - After flashing it and trying to access it the device shows the "unlocked bootloader" screen and then reboots itself and goes to the ROM without even getting into TWRP.
2.8.6.0 - After flashing it and trying to access it the device goes to the "unlocked bootloader" screen and freezes there. I have then to hold the power button for a long time (about 1,5 min) and then the device boots the stock ROM.
Anyone can give any idea of what I can do? I even tried to lock and unlock the bootloader again, flash CWM, flash TWRP and nothing. At least the device is booting, so it is not a urgency, but any help is appreciated!
----------------------------
I got it, a stupid reason for all issues I was having. The issue was with my router, that was set to use a internal firewall which was screwing up a lot of my downloads, and the ROM and TWRP files just got into this issue.
After reconfiguring my router everything worked out, which make me fell stupid for not thinking about this before hahaha, but at least it is fixed
Thanks for everyone who took a time to read this and sorry for any inconvenience!
Hey guys,
I may just have the most stupid thing I could possibly do. I've got a soft-rooted Xperia SP (TowelRoot) and opened CWM Recovery to try to install Cyanogenmod. It cited I had to 'format system' and I rebooted the phone thereafter. Now it's stuck on the Sony Logo and I can't get it into recovery anymore. Even by force-rebooting via the hardware button on the back I can reboot the phone, but it stucks at the sony logo.
Please help, I haven't got a clue..
Update: I can get into fastboot mode. However, my bootloader is still locked.

Click to expand...

when you wipe data the cmw is gone....best thing to do now is to flash stock ftf ROM via flashtool ...go here and panic
Well, I'm glad all android phones have a fast boot mode, which I was used to with my previous HTC One X. I Quickly fast boot flashed a new boot.img and I had CWM back on. Then I installed CyanogenMod and I was done. Pretty easy in fact.
Hey, I was recently using the Nexus Experience ROM and ran into issues with my mobile data not working. So, I decided to go back to 4.4.4 and using TWRP I ran a backup from August and it asked me if I wanted install superSU and I installed that and it rebooted and its stuck on Preparing device. its loops from the motorola boot screen to preparing device over and over. I think ive bricked the phone. any help on how I can fix this. thanks
Hi everyone, so recently i had my xperia z soft bricked after installing TWRP recovery, then i got it hard bricked after pressing a wrong button at the CWM recovery advanced menue which i installed after TWRP failed to install the CM 14 Rom. There was no sign of life whatsoever.
Using the testpoint method i flashed APPSW c6602 firmware, the flashing worked, and the phone came back to life,the led LIT. And the sony logo followed by the charging screen pops up when i connect it to the charger. However it doesn't go into flashmode using hardware keys it just enters charging mode this was also the case before i bricked it). Im clueless as to how im going to install a software on it without the flashmode. any help would be greatly appreciated. Update: flashed 5.1.1 firmware using fastboot from blinkenlights.
Phone boots enters menu, then reboots.
Installed TWRP recovery using fastboot. Works well. Now downloading CM13 rom.
UPDATE: succeeded in installing cm13! rom is working like a charm.
rebooting again in twrp recovery.

Can somebody please post a working link for build 222 (android 5.1.1) Indian genric I extremely need the firmware for my bricked c6602
hello
I've recently found my old Xperia e1 dual d2105 and say I want to try to root this phone
so I tried to follow this.
but for the unlocking bootloader part, I used the instructions on the Sony website and successfully unlocked it.
then I flashed Philz recovery (I don't know if this is the correct term flashing). then I entered the custom recovery and everything as far as know was good.
so then I wanted to root by the same tutorial but when I entered the SuperSu it didn't ask for the update instead it said that the Su binary is occupied.
so my stupid mind suggested instead of trying to solve the problem go to the magisk website and follow that instruction. so I went there and downloaded the zip file then reboot and went into custom recovery and installed it. but when I rebooted the sony logo came and then I was stuck (i think it is called a bootloop).
so I detached the battery to turn the phone off and tried to turn it on but the screen is stuck at the Sony logo and some times it turns himself off:silly:
so I searched on how to get out of a bootloop but I had to get in the recovery mode (or flash mode I think) but when I press power + vol down phone starts up and vibrates and the light turns green but then the light turns off and I'm stuck at the Sony logo:crying:
so if there is anyone who can help me get out of this situation please respond :crying::crying::crying:
also, I tried to go into recovery mode with ADB but I got error: device not found
I have downloaded and installed the USB driver.
You have to go to fastboot mode, then boot twrp and flash new rom
