Hello, i wanted to root my device so i used the Toolkit.
After i unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP i wanted to update it to Android 7.0. I decided to use the OTA update and reinstalled the stock recovery and closed the bootloader again. After closing the bootlader the phone won't start anymore. The bootscreen appears for 1sec and the a white light appears. That's all!
I already tried to wipe all data nothing is helping. If i'm in recovery i can't even use "Install from internal storage"
Pls help!

Hey everyone, I installed recovery on my phone and it worked fine but after doing so I tried to install a ROM. This ended up with my phone being bricked and so I flashed the original FTF file and now it works fine again. I rooted the phone after this and installed recovery and it said it installed properly with no errors. I then tried to boot my phone in to recovery by pressing either volume key when the green led shows up with the sony splash screen but nothing happens. I've tried it loads of times using both up and down volume keys but it does not go to recovery anymore. Any help?

sorry but what recovery are you using
TWRP/CWM I've tried both of them neither of them boot up the phone just boots up as normal even if I press the volume keys. I've installed the CWM for locked bootloader now though and it still wont work, that being the case my phone is a locked bootloader.
what device are you using and which recovery?
i rmb ZL has issues with CWM recovery like this.
Z, havent encounter any yet.
If you cant boot into recovery then try installing it again.

have you got superuser/super su installed and working ? when flashing recovery supersu asks for ADB approval
Well it would be an Xperia Z being in this category of the forum? But Ive tried re-installing and removing completely and installing again. Each time it seems to install correctly but even if the green led comes on at start up it wont boot in to the recovery mode
I even tried using XZRecovery to install it on the phone itself but that didnt let me boot in either

Yeah sorry for not answering previously I do have it installed but as I said, I gave XZRecovery su permissions and it installed TWRP recovery then I rebooted but this didnt work either. I just tried Recovery Reboot from play store and it just gives my phone a normal reboot

Okay try installing this one dont know of anyone which this hasnt work for, before go into supersu and look at app's, has ADB got a green or red hash
I tried that one before and it didn't work. Just checked my superuser and it seems it doesn't even have ADB listed, just some rooted apps I've used. I tried setting it to always allow in preferences but that didn't change anything.

do this
1-flash "another" ftf file
2-repair it with sony update service
3-go to settings > backup and reset > factory data reset (internal wipe)
4-root
5-install CWM
do not try to restore your previous rom or whatever. especially when youre jumping from one rom to another.
Start fresh.
This will probably work but I used the unbranded ftf file on a clean install so im not sure how much differentit'll be

I tried to do this but when I connect my phone to a pc nothing comes up, no pop-up, nothing on the phone, it doesnt even charge. It does charge however when I put it in a plug socket.. I think this could have something to do with it in the first place, my problem still isnt resolved what else can I do?
Are you stuck at step 1?
Try the newest flashtool (I think people are having issues with it, but worth a try) or the v4 flashtool.
And try another ftf file, don't use the same one that you used, or trying to use.

If I do that, then i go to recovery, so what's next? i do factory reset and i go again to "no command" again, or im i doing it wrong?
hmm, try wiping cache and do a factory reset in the recovery menu. I got it right when I tried that few hours ago when my phone got bricked from OTA update

Hey bro, but when i apply "wipe cache partition" it restart again and it did not say "wipe cache partition complete" or something like that, just restart again, and then i do a factory and it says "complete" but when i manually restart , the same again, what else can i do?
Ok . some of your files seem to be corrupt . since your boot loader is unlocked , you Dont have to worry a lot. Do you have the stock 4.4.4 file with you ? If you do, flash that .
What I meant is , downgrade to a proper 4.4.4 KitKat .
Go completely stock, even the stock recovery and then try an OTA update to lollipop
how

Hi Guys,
I was trying to update my Z1(C903) to Lollipop, but weirdly I wasn't able to boot into my recovery to install the pre-rooted rom. Every time i tried to enter into recovery, the phone would just vibrate and then proceed to boot the OS(I have dual recovery installed). I tried to reinstall the recovery but to no avail so I tried to flash stock FTF (14.4.A.0.157) but the process was struck at "flashing data" for a long time and I idiotically unplugged the phone after couple of hours!! And now my phone boots and i see the sony logo and next screen says "Software update failed. Connect your phone to computer and try again" And I'm unable to flash any FTF and the process still gets stuck at "flashing data".
Help me out guys as I badly need my phone for work!! Thank you!

you definitely can't enter recovery now, cause that partition would have been wiped now. try flashing again.
My phone model is gt-i8190t and its rooted via kingroot. I wanted to install twrp recovery to install cyanogen rom.Before that i went to nandroid to create a backup and at the middle of the process it says it stopped working so i clised it. Then i used ez unlock to unlock bootloader which it said successful. So i went to rom manager and pressed the button called reboot into twrp recovery. Then the phone got switched off and never turned on again. Not even the charging icon shows up. Tried removing the battery for a while that didnt work.
Please guyz i really need your help. Thanks alot.

I have the same problem .... a forgot about the phone and then one day it turned on ,now its on a boot loop showing only the Samsung logo and I can only go in to download mode..... where it shows a movi write card 2 error message
This is my backup phone so I don't care for the data that is on it and just want it working again. It was rooted before and I needed it unrooted in order to download an app that was blocked by root detection. I tried uninstalling the root using Super SU in its settings, when I restarted my phone it just freezes at the AT&T white screen.
I'm still able to go into the boot recovery menu, I tried putting on the I537UCUCOC7 (5.0.1) firmware found here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2629093). I downloaded it, extracted the zip, and renamed the file "update.zip" and put the file on a microSD then in the recovery boot menu I went to install from external and selected the update.zip. It sorta kinda looked like it accepted it but I get a red error message about the sideloader and I'm still stuck at the white screen when it boots.
What else can I do from here?
P.S. I already tried wiping the cache and data/factory restore options and that didnt work.
Is there anything else that can be done?
I restored my phone to 4.4.2. How can I install 5.0.1? When I search for software updates it says theres nothing available even though I know it can go to 5.0.1 cause thats what I had before it bricked.
Please share how did you restore when I only able to boot into recovery and clearing cache and factory reset does not help. Phone just stack on boot loop
