Sony Xperia J (ST26i) possibly bricked. Urgent help needed. - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Hi,
I had been trying to fix the touchscreen calibration problem on my sister's Xperia J (TIM branded) by flashing another ROM/Firmware.
I flashed "st26i_11.2.A.0.31 Kernel By [email protected]_Central Europe.ftf" using flashtool by mistake before I installed Clockworkmod itself. I copied the Darkmoon AVD ROM (Ref : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2309415) to the external card . I booted into Clockworkmod and took a backup of the stock ROM, then as I checked to see if I could see the ROM in the "install zip from sdcard" option, I could not find it since it was reading the internal storage instead of the external sd card. Then I rebooted the phone to check if I could transfer the ROM to internal storage but now I am unable to boot up the phone and nothing happens. The screen remains blank (though the backlight is visible).
I need urgent help to fix this. Please help.
PS : Bootloader unlocked.
PPS : Probably wrong thread. Mods please move if needed

You got bootloop, simply there is no rom to boot, what is more kernels with CWM are from CM which is not compatible with stock rom. Try to flash 11.2.A.0.31.ftf clean using flashtool, there might be need to remove battery to avoid booting and again get bootloop.
P.S I did even worse thing when I starting to play with android (I've flashed kernel from Arc S)

I feel dumb. But I flashed the kernel.sin from http://www.4shared.com/folder/25Mb7Dws/Xperia_J.html and it booted normally.

i switch off my phone it takes longer time to switch off so i suddenly remove my battery and reinsert it and after i power on it so simply sony logo what can i do for that

Bootloop Galaxy S+ with any Firmware

Hi everyone,
my colleague has a Galaxy S+ on Stock rom and when he pulled out his phone of his pocket it was boot looping. The blue animation and the big white S is looping all the time.
He has no root or no rom or whatever modification made.
From my experience of my GS2 I first installed FeaMod Recovery and deleted the dalvic cache and fixed permissions --> no change.
I made a factory reset --> no change
I installed several firmwares KGS, KGP, KP4 --> no change
I have no idea if I am doing something wrong..
I flashed via Multi Downloader and when flashing was done or almost done the phone rebooted as multi downloader said in status menu and the white Samsung Logo appears.
What to do next?
Nothing happened and phone didnt start so I turned off the phone and restarted which resulted in boot loop as mentioned in the beginning.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any other idea what do do?
How could I format the internal sdcard?
Via the recovery it cannot be mounted for whatever reason.

How long do u wait? Phone should reboot after while up to 10minuts.
Maybe try on other computer? I had problems before on windows 7, then i tryied on XP and went smoothly....
mounting as usb storage does not work.
Any other possibility to format the internal sd card?
I waited several minutes and tried XP and Win7 with the same result.
When the phone reboots automatically when flashing, do I just have to wait?

It should restart once and show android come out of box, then restart again.
Second restart is taking bit longer at flashing "big S" at screen.
I flashed my sgs+ today twice because i tryied install custom roms.
Unfortunately if thats not help u probably only service can help u due to damaged partition. System or internal sd
Before u send phone to service, flash 2.3.4, unroot and bring back stock recovery.
Oh, try to flash it again without sim card and external sd
After flashing only the Samsung Logo shows and nothing else happens.
I was flashing without sim and sdcard all the time.
Btw, I managed to format the internal sd after reflashing the feamod recovery but still the same result.
He will now return the phone. I flashed a stock firmware, I now do have to see how to remove the feamod recovery.
thanks for your help anyway

Can you still get into recovery? If so use adb to push the ROM to the phone.
Why did you format everything and the SD card... That as you found out wipes everything out. Even if you had a backup on the device it would of wiped it. You should always keep a backup of the device and efs saved off the device to a PC.
Hold the power button for 20 seconds, that'll turn off the phone. Then boot into recovery and adb push a Rom to it. If you can't do that then fastboot flash the factory image
Sent from my Nexus 5
Thankyou guys for your comments~!
I finally figured out.
To fix this what i did was
1.to boot the phone , pressed volume volume down+power.
2.installed the CW recovery using adb.
3.went in to the CW recovery and selected "install zip from sideload".
4.installed CM 11 succesfully using adb.
5.done!!
Now everything looks good but
my sim card is not getting detected.
I doubt the radio software didnt install at all.
Please let me know if i need to install any other software or i am missing something here!!

Bootloop, formated /system

Hi.
I have a problem with my Sony Xperia Tipo. I have CM10 and I downloaded rom based on it. Everything went ok, but this rom needed storage fix. I've changed file that was needed for this in Root Explorer (because some people said that doing that in CWM isn't working), so I have done that. After that, when I wanted to restart the phone the phone restarted itself. After few restarts I've seen that my phone is bootlooped. I pasted rom zip on my micro SD card with computer and a reader and I did factory reset and formated /system. After this I've seen that CWM can't read the external_sd, probably because of some problems with this before. I want to send this file through ADB, but I haven't unlocked USB debugging yet. What should I do? I have CWM, now useless ADB, unlocked bootloader and formated system ;_; Sorry for my english.
I'd say flash an FTF, or flash the CM10 ZIP again. You should be good.
Thanks Flashed ftf with flashtool and it is working right now.
//EDIT
Don't close mod.
Phone still don't see external SD. What should I do?
//EDIT 2
All right, restarted the phone and now it see a ext SD.

CWM Boot Loop

Earlier today I was trying to Root my Sony Xperia M2, I unlocked bootloader (althought it reset my device?), and then I flashed my Xperia into CWM. I then realised I didn't put the ZIP package I needed onto my SD card so I tried to exit the recovery, it didn't allow me and this is when the bootloop started.
I wiped everything, Cache & Factory reset, meaning I probably don't have an OS, I've tried to use 3 different ZIPs and like 30 different tutorials to get out of this..
Everytime I use a ZIP file it, the CWM recovery mode, and normal recovery mode, says E:\ Cannot find Key (After it looks for a key folder in the ZIP). I'm sorry for being a n00b, but I really need help
If any of you guys could help, I would really appreciate. What I think I need is, is a ZIP file that I can actually install, but you guys are the Experts. Thanks.
Fixed
I fixed the problem, but now it's a different model number than what it originally was.

Got my S7500 stuck in boot, please help

Hi guys!!! It's been years since I was last here, I suddenly decided to upgrade my GT S7500 to custom firmware but I have a problem.
While I was at work today, I decided to play with my phone, to make recovery through ClockWorkMod, since I was goin to flash a custom FW through CWM later at home.
My GTS7500 is running a semi-custom ROM, I have changed it years ago and cant remember the exact changes but it's almost same as the vanilla ROM, with minor bugfixes.
I haven't booted CWM in years so I can't remember doing anything or having any problems in the past.
So I unlocked my phone and clicked the CWM Mod icon, the app starter and then I selected to 'Boot into CWM"
My phone rebooted and I am now into CWM.
I haven't done anything, but I am stuck in the recovery.
I screwed around holding some buttons and stuff, and I managed to get to ODIN (as far as I remember this is the screen to flash firmware through USB) but this didn't help me.
I tried removing the battery for hours and it didn't help.
I have my ROM backup on my microSD flash card, from 2012.
What should I do?
Should I select "Restore Boot" from the CWM recovery?
Or should I attempt to flash the new custom ROM straight ahead?
The screen says: CWM-Based Recovery v5.0.2.8
Thanx in advance!
HI guys a quick update: I managed to mount the storage of the phone and microSD to my PC through USB from withing the CWM recovery menu, I am backing up all the data on my laptop.
I found a file called 'exitrecovery.zip' on my microSD card, may be this is the fix I need? May be I got the same problem years ago when I reflashed the stock FW but I cant remember? Thanx again for all suggestions!
PS: I only managed to 'mount' the micro SD card from within CWM Recovery, for some reason I cant mount the internal phone storage, which is bad since I need to recover my contacts and phone numbers!
FIXED IT!!!
Seems like the CWM Recovery was not installed properly!!!
I installed this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359572
Through my current CWM recovery and now it seems to be working fine!!!
Thanx to this DEV!!!
PLEASE RECOMMEND ME A GOOD ROM!!!! WITH LESS BLOATWARE AND FASTER EXPERIENCE!!!
TOGO FLASH PEGASUS or ACECPLUS or INSPIRATION???
Which one is best?
Which aps to install?
Thanx in advance for all reading this!
