Thanks. I downloaded both files - App and FTF, launched FlashTool (Windows), i chose Flashmode, and linked to file FTF. Everything is all right, but after clicking OK the program displaying prompt "How to put phone in FastBoot mode" - of course my phone is already in this mode. What is the cause?
Greetings!

I had the same problem when i tried to flash something i ended up having the same problem. Phone keeps rebooting into recovery mode.
I also have the Sony Xperia S LT26i.
Flash the phone using fastboot using this command: "Fastboot flash boot kernel.sin".
For that you need the kernel file. I'm guessing that your kernel and my kernel are the same because we have the same phone. If you want the kernel file, email me then i will send you the files. Hope this helped

hi,
from the link,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_Guide_-_Android
i don't have custom recovery installed.
and i don't have a memory card.
what i need to do if i want to install odexed rom install.
does custom recovery installation involves rooting phone?
is it not possible to flash unrooted phones?
update:
i did
fastboot flash boot boot.img
from the boot.img file from odexed rom zip.
Is my warranty still intact?
what i did by flashing the boot partition?
boot.img is only 8 MB what is the other content present in the rom zip file and how its used?
thanks,

OK I'll spend some time here so you can understand. Warranty can be checked in most phones with locked bootloaders . ours is not locked. Bootloader locked means no change can be made unofficially by us.
The only way they can find warranty on our phone is if you use official root method.
For this purpose we have unofficial root method.
Now about partitions. /boot is the kernel. Its like drivers for your hardware.
/system is the os. It is either rooted or unrooted like in windows having admin account or normal account.
You can either use an OS which has already admin account by using a rooted ROM or you can use a limited unrooted ROM and then root it thereby making it an admin account.
Now recovery is a mini OS which will help you to recover your OS in case something is wrong. Stock recovery has limited options and allows only official updates. Custom recovery has more options and allows unofficial updates like our prerooted already admin OS/ROM.
Finally fast boot is like your Intel BIOS. Whatever happens as long as it is working you're saved. All other things like recovery, boot, system can be modified from here.
Now you flashed boot.img using fast boot and if you got a success message you're good. Use a recovery image in one of the xolo play threads and flash it using the instructions provided there.
This is required for you to install ROM.
Finally, don't worry about warranty. In case you ever need warranty, follow instructions in my ROM post about warranty. Where you can flash the ROM and recovery that came with the phone. So no worries and good luck.
Edit: for you, since you're so worried, simply install cwm recovery, then install stock odexed ROM, install build.prop.zip then reinstall stock recovery and you're like how u purchased the phone.

Before trying backup ta cuz if it brick you can restore from backup or brick ta mean hard brick device that only sony can fix.
This trick worked on Xperia e1 so maby work on E3 also.
Does this method works on Xperia E3 D2206/D2243??
Does this method work with Xperia E3 D2206/D2243 ?? @vinay What do you think?
I am telling this because around a half month ago, I get rooted in my phone (D2206 model) using D2203 boot img file. Thanks for all
@lexiyuri I believe you can flash lollypop aosp and use this method to root it.
I wanna tell you that D2212 root method work on d2202 cause it supports it's kernel. Now sony released 4.4.4 on d2202 and I,ve flashed d2202 FTF on my D2212 and it is working like charm.
And an FTF contains
Boot
System
Fotakernel
Userdata
And may more.
But aosp only contains userdata.img system.img boot.img and I bet it will work.
Cause in FTF we need all partition,s compatible but in aosp just 3 and if you see cycle of phone boot you only need one compatible and it is boot which is already compatible.

After flashing the second image to get root, yes you have root, but no CWM recovery anymore . . . . . . . . .

I tried OEM lock to start the process from beginning after fastboot mode showing many times for the process, its stuck in the 'waiting for device' in nexus toolkit and in device , the screen isnt moving from fastboot mode unless i manually start it. after starting manually the bootloader haven't re-locked.
I tried reinstalling my ABDdrivers in pc and did all the process again but nothing worked.
wonder whether the nand memory is fried ???
Do this.... Boot the phone in fastboot mode.... Connect to your PC and confirm with fastboot devices if the same is recognized ....
If it is.... Check the current status of the bootloader of it being unlocked or not.... If it is unlocked .... Just flash the stock image

So you can normally boot ? If you can, the nand memory is fine. Can you reflash stock bootloader using TWRP ? Can you try "adb reboot recovery" to see whether it boots to recovery or not ?

its not entering by flashing twrp.. even after flashing twrp , the phone stops on bootloader which it have to enter the twrp recovery .
i jus use nexus root toolkit
I DONT OWN THE PHONE ANYMORE AND I CANT HELP ANYONE ELSE ANYMORE, IM SORRY...DISCONTINUED!
So here we are:
Big thanks to Hovatek Enigma who was the first person ever to help me!
Also big thanks to AMD developers, Matrix guys very very friendly !! ( i ported lots of roms that they developed)
First:
1) Blu Studio M Hd is just a rebranded Gionee P5W, the stock gionee rom works fine without porting need via SP flashtools
2) blu Studio M Hd is on lollipop and Gionee is on Marshmallow, you can use gionee marshmallow on it!
Second:
To install Twrp on blu studio M Hd and gionee P5w you need to follow these steps:
1) Download and install minimal adb and its drivers:
( I dont own the video, if you have any questions please use search on xda forum, the process is very similar to all other mediatek devices)
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d04ZwTbstI4
2) Enable Developer mode and do enable "oem unlock" on it
3) with it enabled do insert usb cable and do open adb minimal and type: adb reboot bootloader ( it will reboot into fastboot mode)
4) Here you do type fastboot oem unlock , it will ask you on the phone if you do really want to unlock it, then say yes pressing vol up
5) Your phone is now unlocked, to check it please type fastboot getvar all and it will show unlocked yes
6) do type fastboot reboot and your phone will reboot and enter into bootloop ( this is normal, now remove the battery)
7) Please do download and open Sp flash tools and " download only" the stock rom! it will reinstall the system and now you ll be unlocked and ready to flash twrp and custom roms. ( Remember, to flash blu phones you have to plug in usb without battery and then when it starts you insert battery again)
8) You can find stock firmware here: http://firmwarefile.com/gionee-p5w You can use it on both phones.
9) If you re using blu studio M Hd you ill find out that after the flash it stands on boot animation for a long time, dont worry the first boot will take more than 10 minutes just wait it
10) Now that you re back into the system, do the same process with adb and do enter into bootloader mode by typing: adb reboot bootloader
11) Now you can just flash twrp, just copy twrp files into the minimal adb folder and type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
12) it will suceed, now you can just boot into twrp by typing fastboot boot recovery.img
Now you re ready to flash any custom rom you want! You can also install super SU after flashing custom roms !
Hope it helps ! You can download twrp here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/twrp-3-0-2-gionee-p5w-walton-primo-gh5-t3432166
Next post will be about custom roms !
But when the device boots in fast boot mode ,my pc failed to recognise it and thus the whole process stops by saying that
''Waiting for device"

I have solved the problem. You can flash any custom recovery without unlocking the bootloader.all you need to do is to download the stock ROM which is android lollipop and flash it using SP flash tools because marshmallow stock ROM does not root easily in my case. so when. You have flash android lollipop ROM you should root it with kingoroot app and then flash twrp recovery using rashr.then you can flash the twrp and custom ROM without unlocking the bootloader..
Hit thanks if it worked
It worked in mine case and I had flashed rr ROM easily (worked fine)
Thanks...

Where did you get the lollipop stock ROM for Gionee P5w
Can anyone please port any nougat rom for gionee p5w.
does flashing stock rom via sp flash tool lock the bootloader.
