Hello!
Today I've played with my Xperia L too hard. I tried to change my android to cyanogenmod multiple times. (Again and again bootloop.)
It happened when I've done flashing from the recovery. Everything went smooth but then something came wrong,... Error.
I rebooted it and It stucked on SONY logo.
I used flashtool -> fastboot, flashmode, bootloader mode.
Unfortunately android and USB debugging are dead.
The only thing that still works is CWM recovery.
R.I.P. or not?
(My bootloader is unlocked.)
P.S. Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance.
You did not mention if you tried booting after a factory reset (clearing data and caches)

Of course I tried. System is not even loading up. Everything ends on SONY logo or CWM recovery.
I think that partitons are blank.
I got stock ROM on my HDD. I think i can convert .tft to .zip and then through another phone/adapter do the copy to sdcard.
Is it the same as flashing through the Flashtool?
Hmmm
I already tried to install .zip firmware but "Instalation aborted." after "Instaling update."
Solution?
Phone can't even charge the battery.

To upgrade to Cyanogenmod you need to have the latest sony update for your device. (4.2.2)
You also need to have the latest CWM on your device. For the newer updated roms ( Cyanogen,Carbon....)
And ofcourse you need to whipe everything before proceding..... factory reset,clean cashe and dalvik....
Try flashing it with Thunderzap...
Thunderzap 4.6 is designed for kitkat roms.
Works perfectly with flashing it and running on them.
Best of luck.
PS: I had the similar issue like yourself on start. I was stuck...
The thing is i flashed roms true custom kernels such as THUNDERZAP or PHANTOM...
Never worked true flashtool.
I only flashed custom kernel true flashtool and stock rom.
Yes.
Maybe you won't belive me, but I tried custom kernel sec before you posting.
It works now. And problem was my recovery. It died on symlinks.
And as u wrote I tried Thunder Kernel + Thunder Stock recovery.
Everything went smooth I installed Carbon without problems.
Anyway thanks and again sorry for my average english.

Hello everyone !! I´m new at the forum.
I have a TF300T that was working with the Surdu_petru´s ROM 10.4.2.13,
Today I decided to move to the latest ASUS firmware 10.6.1.8, first I flashed with fastboot the TWRP 2.4.4.0 and went fine.
Then I flashed the Official ASUS ROM, wipe cache and dalvik cache and did factory reset, after that I flashed with this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39084944&postcount=64 (Deodex US version).
When I rebooted everything was excellent but I noticed that I didn´t have root neither busybox installed, so I rebooted and tried to enter to TWRP, the TWRP gave me the issue that it couldn't mount partitions I flashed twice by fastboot and the same happened.
Obviously as a noob vv .. I took a dumb decision and I flashed to CWM Recovery, and well now I have a Tf300T that only boots to CWM recovery and doesn´t mount partitions, no Sdcard, no internal memory.
Every time it reboots, it goes to CWM , in there it let me use ADB (with a weird name:0123456789abcdef Recovery) and Fastboot (but it doesn´t flash things right, it seems that it gets freeze when I flash things).
And if I do a cool boot linux... Android boots and i´m able to work fine in the OS :/ ...
I have been reading for almost 8 hours, and I couldn´t fine a solution, please can somebody give me some help. I´m frustrated and really disappointed X_x
Thanks for taking the time for reading all my problem. Best Regards !!
AFAIK you have the same bricks as plenty others here, because of installing CWM (if I am right, it's not compatible with 4.2.1 yet), you had to flash TWRP recovery, which was created for 4.2.1 usage.
Anyway I am afraid that there is so far no solution for this problem, sorry to say that...

Thanks for the reply, any chance to flash TWRP again??? I have just enable usb debug but basically the same is going on in here.
CWM was working fine on my phone. But recently i tried to install fxp 220. But while flashing boot.img my phone got somewhat dead, in the sense, the phone would only vibrate when i press power button and nothing would happen. So i downloaded stock kernel and flashed. Now the phone is working fine. But cwm is not booting. So i re-installed it. Still not working. Please help. Thanks in advance!
Please for GOD sake reply...I'm waiting. Tell me what has happened. I want to correct it. Please tell me how can i get cwm to work on m y phone. I've performed a nandroid backup before this happened. So is there any way out. Please please do help me.
Have you rooted after installing stock rom? First flash stock or skip if you have done that already.
Then use unlockroot to root your fone.
Then find cwm from the android development section and install it.
Then turn off your fone.
Turn it on and press vol - repeatedly when you see Sony logo.

Try to flash stock firmware with androxyde flashtool
sent from XPERIA ST21i

Yep, i did follow everything properly.
BTW i fixed it after like hours of brain bursting.
I tried flashing it with stock kernel, but to no use. it never went into recovery mode. dunno y, but i flashed it with miui kernel, and the startingsony icon changed and then for that 2 sec timeframe, i got an opportunity to try and get into recovery, and it worked, pheeewwww :victory:
Still dunno what the issue was
Thanks
Hi, I'm new to flashing roms and after installing CWM 6.0.4.7 on my xt1032 and rooting whenever i try to flash a rom it gets stuck in the boot animation. I have tried CM 11 Carbon rom and paranoid android. I don't know if I'm using the wrong GAPPS or what. Please help.
Gapps are not the problem:the same thing was happening to me. The real problem is the bootloader: if you are on kitkat, you have to revert to stock jelly bean (4.3), install custom recovery (for JB), root and flash the custom rom you desire. That's the only way that worked for me.

I tried o revert to 4.3 but when flashing boot.img it said hab check failed for boot and now when i try to boot up it goes to the unlock booloader warning turns off and repeats. I can get back to fastboot but when i try to enter recovery it shows a broken android lying sideways. I think i bricked my phone. I really need help
Go back to Stock and start from Scratch.
As long as you can enter fastboot you should be fine.
I too have suffered with this problem, today i have done as above said, reflashed 4,3 but when i onstalled the cwm 4.3 version i still suffered the same problem, so i tried the cwm4.4 and hey presto, i now have cm11 on my phone, yee haaa

Try this,when you get to the broken android follow the instructions in the link below for "external reset" this will reset your phone.
https://motorola-global-portal.cust..._detail/a_id/97329/p/30,6720,9050/action/auth
if that fails just flash a stock 4.4 image with fastboot using one of the guides.

hello everyone
I have a question about PaulOBrien superboot root method (look in modaco forum the moto g root method 1).
I have a 16GB Moto G and updated to Kitkat via OTA.
yesterday I used the method 1 (superboot) on windows 7, to root my phone, and run it for the first time and ended on a black screen with green bars (supposedly normal). I power off the phone and turned on and load kitkat normally and noted that the phone was not rooted.
y tried the method for a second time and have the same results (ended on a black screen with green bars), but when kirkat launched, on the initial screen i saw a message "System UIDs Inconsistent. UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." and the system didn't respond.
I performed a factory reset via stock recobey and kitkat showed the same message but let me in the "i´m feeling lucky button" worked this time. there I noticed that my device was now rooted but non app was able to access the internal memory due to some r/w permissions as I think, because when I try to copy files to the phone via USB cable, I get have the same denial, even whit ADB push i get the same message of permissions denial.
I need a way to solve this because in this actual stage the phone works but the apps have like no access to the memory making them unusable,
for example i cannot take a picture, or download a file, for some reason all google apps not work or force close every time.
I need a way to upload a .img file to the phone in order to perform a recobery or to make a fresh install via fastboot, donn't know how to make the phone let me wrhite files on it. :crying:
(note: sorry for my bad English)

As long as you can enter the bootloader you haven't bricked anything!!! so don't you worry!
I have two questions: when did you download the stock rom, did you check the MD5 ??? Are you sure that it wasn't a bad download ?
Additionally: are you sure that you have downloaded the appropriate ROM? Did you try to flash any other ROM?

I am having the same issue. I got this xt1032 after it was OTA upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.2 and I downgraded it to KitKat 4.4.4 Stock. Now I'm also getting stuck on the boot animations on every Custom ROM I try to flash on it.
Does anyone know if having the bootloader upgraded due to the Lollipop update has anything to do with this? mine is at Ver. 41.18.
EDIT: I was finally able to flash after Formatting Data from Recovery. Keep in mind this will basically delete everything from the internal storage and you need to put everything back there manually. Always make sure you backup your info/apps/music/fotos before Formatting Data.
Hi everyone . I need help . I have an Xperia L with resolution remix rom and two days ago it just got restarted and ended in a bootloop . I tried to reflash but it was stuck at patching system unconditionally.
I even tried different recovery
Some times the recovery says that flashing finished
But when I reboot the phone it just stays at the sony logo. And when I check the size used in the system partition there is a lot of space left it means the ROM was not installed
All the recovery have this problem. Now I can't flash any zip ( the recovery just reads the update script and shows on the screen ) ? please someone help me
I have tried TWRP
PHILZ
CWM
Let me know if there is a cure for this
THANKS

Seems like partition issue. You're wiping all partitions properly before flashing new zip?

I have no idea what's happening with my phone
I did wipe everything except internal and external storage
The recovery is not copying any files to the sys partition
While flashing because of this the recovery just loads and loads for ever but still nothing happens
I'm trying to install cm 12.1 and the recovery is currently paused patching sys unconditionally
Can someone give me link to a good recovery
Except these ?. ?. ?
I have problem with TWRP , CWM , PHILZ

If nothing is working then I'd suggest to flash the stock ROM FTF and see if the device boots, if it does then just download latest TWRP and start flashing!

It's not booting . And because the cm 12 was stuck at patching sys unconditionally . I decided to install another rom and I found you're prime Xperia LP
. But sadly it was not booting even after a clean installation . It's stuck at the thunder zap logo ??
What to do now

Stock ROM not booting? Hmm..It is sounding more like a hardware issue to me or most probably messed up partition table. Btw you said stuck on thunderzap logo, why are you flashing thunderzap kernel? It is outdated, abandoned and not supported to latest releases anymore.

But I didn't flash thunder zap. I just installed the prime Xperia LP and when I restarted the phone that's when I saw the thunder zap logo
I thought you included it in the ROM
I didn't flash anything additionally
And sometime the recovery dose flash correctly n ROM dose boot but after some time it just hangs and restarts
Then it goes to bootloop almost every has this problem
I installed stryflix ultimate yesterday and the same problem happened to this ROM too. Then I tried to reflash but recovery problems again

Do one thing, download latest twrp from HERE and using the dd method listed there, flash that recovery. Boot to the new recovery and wipe everything (boot,system,data,cache and internal storage). Then download any of the latest ROM e.g. AICP or AOSP-CAF Nougat and flash that. Do these and let me know the result.

I have flashed a mm ROM and fortunately it booted up
And the phone is working. But I don't know for how long
Anyway I installed super user and when I type the commend it is saying
Unknown id: dd ???
Don't know what's the problem but I think that the resource file name was different or something else
Stryder i think that the problem for bootloop is the SIM ?or carrier? . All the rom i flash has RIL problem
And when I reboot my phone without SIM it doesn't stuck. But I can't use the phone without carrier
Is there any solution. And I still couldn't do anything about the dd commend.
Thanks
Some how the problem is solved ( i think )
I have flashed some other Roms and they are working fine and the recovery is working smoothly
