I Recently bought a Xperia L C2105.
and then i'm trying to Root my xperia and unlocking the bootloader. And Successful without any problem.
when i'm trying to install Vengeance Kernel, my phone got bootloop. whereas i'm doing it with i'ts instruction.
and then i remove my battery and reboot. and it succedd. i have no booloop.
Then suddenly, when i'm getting messages from my friend, it says I have insufficient space on internal memory, so i can't receive message.
And then i turned off my phone, and Reboot. And i got mini heart attack. my APPS IS MISSING. ALL MY APPS IS ERASED !. AND IT RETURNS INTO STOCK. SIMILAR TO THE FIRST TIME I TURNED ON MY PHONE.
And then i'm trying to clear dalvik cache and cache partition ( WTF am i doing !!?!? ). And i'm trying to mount SD CARD,SYSTEM, AND EXTERNAL SD CARD. But when i mount my /Data. IT FAILED !
And my phone got kinda factory-reseted everytime i reboot my phone.
So, Does anyone can help me ?
Is it my internal memory got Corrupted ?

Hello everyone,
Well, this is my first post, but I've learned alot from this site, and I love it. I wanted to ask a couple questions so I decided to register. My phone is a Sony Xperia E single sim with 11.3.A.2.13 on it. I've had it for 2 months and it turned out to be running very slow. So I decided to try to root it, and I failed... I tried everything, from using SRSroot, to flashing to 11.3.A.0.47 and root it with Framaroot and then flash back to 11.3.A.2.13. Nothing worked, so I decided in a desperate move to unlock the bootloader of my phone, I saw lots of posts, which said that there was no harm in it, and if you were facing a bootloop after the unlocking you could easily flash the phone in Flashmode with Flashtool. So I unlocked my bootloader with the BLU button in Flashtool, and after that I was facing a bootloop... Now, I didn't panick, because I just flashed the 11.3.A.2.13.ftf which I downloaded, and... It didn't work! Flashtool got stuck at ''Flashing data'' at 90 %. I still didn't panick, and I downloaded both 11.3.A.0.47.ftf file and 11.3.A.2.23.ftf file, but the same thing happened. So I used different USB-ports, but Flashtool got stuck again! Now I got a bit scary, but I didn't freak out, I downloaded a relock-bootloader file for the single sim, and flashed it! And it worked! I tried to flash another .ftf file, and again it got stuck... So I used Sony Update Service, which completed downloading, but got stuck at 0% with the installing, after 5 minutes it said: ''install failed, please check if your phone is fully charged''. And I do think it was fully charged, because I charged my phone all night, but there was one option left: repair the phone with PC Companion, and then flash a .ftf file. But my PC companion has no repair buttons! I know it should be there, but it isn't! So here I am, desperate, and willing to do everything to fix my phone! I have 3 questions:
1. Is there anything left to do, which I can try?
2. If I send my phone to Sony, will they know I tried to modify my software? Because flashing the relock-bootloader file did work. And before they fix my phone they have to flash it, and I think that if they do that, there is no way left to see it had the bootloader unlocked, but please correct me if I'm wrong! Isn't it possible to make up a lie, like: I tried to update my phone with PC Companion, and during the installation, it got stuck, and my phone ended up in a bootloop?
3. If Sony does know that my bootloader was unlocked, what will it cost me to let them fix it?
But please, answer question one first, because that's always free
1.Be patience... try flashing again, leave your phone for 10~15 minutes if doesn't work... Try on another computer (friend's) . It should work.
2.as you said that bootloader relock.ftf successfully flashed and root didn't work,I don't think theres any proof left to know that you try to modify your phone's software ,so you can make a lie
3. I didn't know that.
Thanks
Thanks
Hello gagu.436425,
Indeed I left my computer on flashing for almost 2 hours, no result. But as you said(and I read on another site) tomorrow I will try it on my friends gaming PC with Windows 7... I myself have a ****ty laptop from 5 years ago with Windows XP
So I'll try this, and I'm pretty sure this will work, because there was a person with a E having the exact problem on another site, and he fixed it on the pc of his dad. But my phone got stuck in a bootloop a week ago, so I started to panick, and posted on XDA! For the next problem I will keep searching a bit longer!
Thank you for your great tip! And you were the first that responded after 30 views, so I appreciate it very much!
Kind regards,
MatsPunt

Hello,
Unfortunately the flashing didn't work, on my friend's PC it also didn't work!!! What can I do? I'm getting real desperate!!!
Which version of flashtool are you using.....?
Its recommended to use latest version...
Try this..
Charge the phone..
Pull out battery
After a few minutes put it back in...DO NOT POWER IT ON OR PRESS POWER BUTTON
Now prepare for flashing and then when it asks to connect..then, only then press vol down and connect..
Hope this works...
And just make sure your biotloader us still locked.,,if it isn't,just flash a different kernel via fastboot
Hello,
Thank you very much for your great replies! First of all: I am using the latest version of Flashtool! 0.9.11.0 is the latest version, or isn't it? If not, I will download the newest version!
mathewsj114: I will try your great tip in the evening, because I don't have much time now! But I will start charging now! So, later on I will post the results, and maybe( if it didn't work) a screenshot of my Flashtool during the flashing. Perhaps that will help you to help me . But first I'm going to try what you said.
Kind regards,
MatsPunt
OMG, a potatoe!
Hello mathewsj114,
Well, I charged my phone fully(something like 5 hours), and I followed your other instructions, but unfortunately... No result. Flashtool still gets stuck at 90%!
But a friend of mine is willing to help me out and I will give him my phone today. He will try to fix it,
Kind regards,
MatsPunt
If all else fails like flashing stock ROm for Xperia E the only way to get your phone back is to return it to Sony in hopes of them replacing it

Hello guys,
So, yeah I recovered my phone+ I finally found a way to root it with: http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/ !!!!
It was very easy, just download it and run the .exe. After rooting you have to manually install Superuser/SuperSU.
Have a nice day,
From a very happy person
I just installed a font installer app. When I just installed a new font, the app ask for reboot. I rebooted my phone and it starts normally. But after 4 or 5 times I installed the others font and rebooted again and again, at the last time I rebooted, my phone stuck at the boot animation. Even 30 minutes it doesn't past the boot animation. How to fix it?
My phone is Sony Xperia L C2105 running Android 4.1.2 (15.0.A.2.17), rooted, bootloader is still locked.
I don't want to flash my phone because it will erase my data. I have some important contact and messages that I didn't have the backup yet.
I need help, it's really important for me.
Sorry for my bad English.
I will appreciate your suggestions.
Thank you.
Which app did you use? You know, the same thing happened with my brother's Xperia M.

My brother used MyFont app..installing any font would cause a reboot for him. So, he uninstalled the app when somehow his phone started after successive retries... try remove your battery and somehow start your phone and remove that app!
Btw, he rooted via Framaroot! What about you?

how many times he tried? And how long is needed for the battery to be removed?

But, I have found a solution for this problem.
The solution is to flash the device without wiping user data and cache (don't tick anything under the Wipe option). I just tried it and it was successful.
Now, my phone is back and I don't lose any app and my data.
But, once again, thank you
Hi!
Does someone know how I can restore my .semc-fullbackup backup from Z to Z3?
This is the only backup that I have (all my apps data, sms, mms....) and with the new backup & restore app I can't restore it.
I didn't have the xperia Z anymore so I can't use another backup tool to restore :crying:
Thanks a lot for your help.
Schlew
same! like seriously no way to restore it.
@schlew
now the only way is to use pc companion to backup the message, than restore back using pc companion.

Cool! Let's wait for the root method for locked bootloader!!!!
What do you means with "must be from 4.4.4". Does it means the backup must be from 4.4.4?
My backup is from 4.4.2 version of Xperia Z .
Isn't it possible to make an apk that will be installed like a normal app???
