Hello,
I own an Xperia Z C6603 and i was running the latest oficially available firmware before
i m quite new to all the stuff regarding flashing/rooting/unlocking etc
so today i decided to give it a shot.
now my phone is in a state that i cant use it any more.
Basically what i wanted to do is install this [BeanStalk-4.4015] custom rom. Now its stuck on the loadscreen forever.
I started with rooting the device following the description in one of the posts i found here (flashing the previous kernel with flashtool then rooting it and flashing the original latest kernel again) which worked out very well.
After that i unlocked the bootloader following another guide here in forums which went ok without any problems aswell.
As it seemed like it reset all my settings after unlocking the bootloader i reenabled the developer mode to set the USB debugging and security options for unofficial software aswell.
All went fine and i was preparing to install the custom rom so i put the zip file on my sd card entered the recovery mode and flashed the rom zip file.
It seemed all ok and the phone was restarting and its stuck in the boot screen ever since that. I tried to get it back in order by trying out various stuff i could find here on forums.
when i tried to reset the delvik cache initially i did not see any error messages or anything so i assumed that its done correctly also cleared the other caches which were listed. I was getting a bunch of errors but i assumed its because the folders could be empty as it seemed like the phone was completely reset after the bootloader unlock.
I could not get anywhere with the CWM recovery mode so i flashed MOEW kernel through flashtool. The meow kernel was mentioned in the post regarding the custom rom as viable and it included TWRP recovery so i wanted to give it a try.
First exactly the same happened when i tried to boot it normally... Stuck...
So after that i tried to mess around with the TWRP recovery which seemed a bit more complicated than CWM.
First that came to my eye was that i could not enable all the partitions (system was constantly disabled) i managed to enable it after hitting the fix permissions button a bunch of times also i started to get some error messages while trying to reset dalvik cache but none of this changed the main problem at all.
Also i m unable to access the SD card from my computer for some reason even if i enable USB teathering in CWM or TWRP.
any suggestions how to get the phone back to work ?

Hello,
i managed to unbrick the phone using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458530
however i tried to redo all the steps following the guide to install the beanstalk rom and noticed that i m getting an error about updater package when i try to execute the installation from TWRP any ideas ?
would you suggest trying another 4.4 based rom ?
Hello again,
ok so i gave up on the beanstalk 4.4 rom and decided to try my luck with pac rom mtayabkk suggested
so now the problem is not as big as it was.
Able to get the rom to run however i m unable to import my contacts/sms/call log using titan backup
The restore seems to work but after that i m getting com.android phone has stopped error everywhere i go on my phone (the contacts/etc are actually restored in this process tho and work fine apart from the errors)
i did restore a bunch of other settings together with the contacts aswell which i found as safe to back up in a guide i found
so can you give me an advice how to properly restore this to the newest pac man rom and avoiding various errors after that ?
ps
i moved all my media to sd card so it does not concern me the only thing i cant seem to be able to move over apart from contacts/sms/call log are the APN settings which is bothering me a bit aswell as i can not receive the configuration messages from carrier but i found them on the internet and i will add them manually
trying to restore the stock backup from PC companion right now to export them again as i lost the backup in process of trying to deal with the error i was getting
would you suggest trying again with titan backup or any other tools ?
Hi, today after my phone suddenly died without reason, and then my phone just looping on splash screen ( SAMSUNG GALAXY S-III Mini GT-I8190 ). Before I start this thread, I already google it, and I found this and this maybe so many out there with almost same case and zero solution.
Yeah, Stock Recovery and Download Mode still accessable and I already tried:
Wipe Data/Cache on recovery
Flash Stock Firmware using odin, With/without PIT.
Flash Param
Try different odin version.
Flash bunch of different version custom recovery, TWRP and CWM.
Flash CM11 Maclaw using odin.
But my phone still same, nothing changes, even I already flash custom rom, and my Stock Recovery still there.
Flashing with no error, but I have error log in Download Mode, movi_write_card status:2 with red font.
I can't flash anything with that. This is hardware problem? eMMC? If anyone have suggestion would be appreciate, thanks.
Sorry for my english.

Yup my baseband also became unknown after flashing custom rom through twrp but I downloaded the firmware and flashed it through fastboot but it was still not working so I read somewhere to remove the Sim before flashing and it worked you should try it too

First of all, I am an Argentine using the google translator.
Hello, good evening, I urgently need help to solve the following problem:
I have a moto g5s plus, xt18000, with android 8, to which I apply a custom rom HAVOC-OS-v3.5 TEN [10.0] - [SANDERS]). As God commands, backup the EFS folder with TWRP and apply the ROM.
The rom worked wonderfully, but it had no mobile network. Yes IMEI.
Perform the restore from TWRP, but it remained the same, without network, but with IMEI.
I went back to a stock 8 to see if I got the signal back. In addition to not recovering it, I LOST THE IMEI and BASEBAND.
Install a stock 7 and nothing. In all (in 8 and 7) install twrp and restore, but without it working.
And just in case I googled EVERYTHING, in ALL languages.
It gives me a lot of anger because I have the blessed backup of the EFS folder and it does not work for ANYTHING.
I know there are many posts on this topic but in none I found a solution, or guide.
Can somebody help me?
Thank you.
EDIT: In fastboot I Have my ORIGINAL IMEI. But in android is 0.
Hi maurorisuenio, i had the same issue flashing evo x rom on my wife phone. I spent almost 1 day to solve the problem, i'll try to give you my step to step guide, it worked for me.
- from custom rom flash back to stock rom, i used RETEU version 8.1 (i don't know what's the south america stock rom), on xda is full of thread "how to flash stock rom"
- flash custom recovery 'cause when you flash stock rom it repleace custom recovery with original one.
- now restore your EFS backup
- boot the phone, you should get back your IMEI but still no network signal
- flash the custom rom you want wiping system/data/cache just to have a clean install
-reboot your phone.
As i said it worked for me, hope it's ok for you as well.
Download the latest stock firmware and flash it in fastboot mode and remove sim before flashing and after phone boots insert sim, you will get your signal and imei back
