Before i unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone without problem, when the update 4.3 was arriving i decided to relock the bootloader and flash a jelly bean firmware for update it by pc companion. Now i decided to unlock again to install omnirom, i flashed 4.1.2 firmware and then i tried to unlock bootlader but when the process is finished and i turned on the phone it doesn't boot, the animation is blocked and the phone will restart. So i flashed again 4.1.2 firmware, it turned on and in the service info --> configuration the phone said that the bootlader is unlocked, at this point i tried to root but i received lines of "impossible" on the terminal, i was be able to do all this one month ago but now i can't understand where is the problem. Someone have any idea??
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

Now it says bootloader unlocked allowed: yes because when i saw that the root didn't work i relocked the bootlader and flashed a 4.3 ftf file, it's the first time that the phone does this thing

You have to check on flashtool to wipe everything for a factory reset. In your case I would flash a stock rom, unlock the bootloader via flashtool and then install a custom rom

And this is what i did, i flashed a jelly bean stock rom then i unlocked the bootlader but when i turned on the phone it didn't boot, so i flashed again a stock rom and it said that the bootloader is unlocked so i proceeded with the root but i had error messages

How do you try to root? Do you want to install a custom rom? If you want to install a custom rom do the following:
1. flash the kernel from the custom rom
2. boot into that kernel and flash the custom rom zip file
3. wipe cache and dalvik
4. flash supersu zip file
If you want to stay stock but with root and are on 4.3:
1. flash the kernel of a custom rom
2. boot into that kernel and flash supersu zip file
3.reflash the stock kernel (excule everything else)

Yes i want to install a custom rom, i tried to root the phone using doomlord easy rooting toolkit to intall later the cwm, i know that if i do like you say i can install custom rom more fast, in less passages, but before i did this passages for root the phone and it worked but now after i unlock bootloader the phone doesn't start and i must flash again a stock rom with flashtool to make it work again, i know that then if i see in the phone i have the same the bootloader unlock but this isn't normal and after this new problem also the root doesnt' work
I hope that you can understand what i mean also if my english is bad
Yes maybe i can stay on 4.3 stock rom but to flash a custom kernel i must unlock the bootloader and we arrive at the same point of before, i'm not sure that the unlock works well

So on 4.1.2 easy rooting doesn't work? Umm, are you sure you're following it step by step? (If I remember correctly there are 2 ways, one for locked and one for unlocked bootloader, you have to use the one for unlocked bootloader)

No there is only one method for both and yes i followed the instructions step by step infact before relocking the bootlader and flash the stock rom i had the omnirom on the phone. It's not normal that when i unlock the bootloader the phone doesn't boot or i'm wrong?? Infact from when i have this problem i also have problem with root

but after rebooting system.. sony logo comes and then black screen stuck up. same occurs in every rom ..

Maybe you messed up in the install step...
Try to reflash your phone...

You cannot use Flashtool to unlock the bootloader of the Sony Xperia SP. Go to here: http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/
Since it is not unlocked please read this too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354721

Hi,
Would like to know if we have TWRP Recovery for Xperia SP Huashan (C5303) with Unlocked Bootloader.
Thank you.
You can get it yes look for the recovery threads in the development section for kernels with it built in (UL BL only) or theres a version for LBL.
Dude, search function...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2649923
Also works on ULB
Or flash a kernel which has TWRP recovery installed. Eg. Doomkernel v13

Hi Dude,
Have you tried that yourself on Unlocked Bootloader?
Cause the last time i tried that, it didn't work.
It's just black screen whenever i enter into recovery.

A few months back I tried it (on ULB) and it worked.
Anyway, if you have unlocked your bootloader, simply flashboot a kernel which has TWRP included.
Both Doomlord and Williams have it. Depending on the ROM you're on, download one of these.

Well, I think that tells you what you need to do. I have soft bricked my m8 quite a bit, but have been able to atleast get to the bootloader and then get to recovery. If you need stock firmware to flash I am sure you can find it here.
