After using flashtool to install new roms and kernals, I think I may have installed a rom that was not for my exact spec. So after flashing the rom, my phone does not allow me to use any touch screen keys, and I think has overwritten CWM. I have tried Sony Update through PC Companion and it told me that my phone could not be updated. What can I do ?
try to download stock/rooted rom for your device exactly and install it trough flashtool, maybe that will work
I have tried this now. Flashtool does install, but I cannot get past first screen after install. The touch keys stiil do not work.

well, read here and use that CWM recovery just flash it and enter recovery mode ( I mean you don't have a working rom but a recovery ) when in recovery try to navigate menus then use back sensor-button
if this is working is a good sign if not you have to replace touchscreen I suggest to perform this check before !
I tell you this because you just flashed a ROM ...are you sure it was made for your phone ?
if not it's possible to cause damage to your phone drivers usually are placed in boot.img -your kernel be careful when flashing a new kernel!
Right now my phone does not respond to the install CWm2file, is this the correct thing to do when you say "use that CWM recovery just flash it and enter recovery mode". I am really hoping this phone can be saved somehow.

Download this file, extract it and flash the ftf file inside it via flashtool (Make sure u tick wipe cache & wipe user data on the ftf selection page):
https://rapidshare.com/files/477812782/wt19i_stock_rom_0.62_with_root.zip
Its a rooted stock ROM for Live with walkman...Then download the attached file to get CWM...extract the files to a folder and do as directed in the notepad file (make sure u keep usb debugging and unknown sources on...use the install-cwm2 file..its the one for our phone)..
Now, you should be having a stock kernel, stock rom, with root and CWM...check ur touch keys now...
*IMPORTANT*And always remember...once you've rooted ur phone and unlocked the bootloader...never use PC companion OR OTA updates (on the phone) for updating..it'll brick ur phone..:crying: *IMPORTANT*
PS: Hope i could help..Hit thanks if i did!
PS2: this thread contains all the ROMs which are made for our phone..so before flashing a ROM..please make sure u check if its made for our phone...

firstly I hope you solve that problem because I don't like problems too
-is your bootloader unlocked can you see something on screen when starting
-what about last rom flashed
-can you flash any rom but made for your phone only
-don't use PC Companion at this time
Bootloader IS unlocked. When starting I get Sony Ericsson Start up, and then home screen. Volume works, On/off works. but no touchscreen at all. I can flash a rom using Flashtool, but when try and flash a kernal Flashtool does not let me use flashboot mode. It tell me that Device not connected. This happened before messing up my touchscreen, and I solved it by putting phone in different connection mode.
All this came about because I flashed '[GB rom] X-royal v14 only for lww' and rage kernal, and prob was not for my spec phone.
From this webpage: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650365
So phone has been off for two days now.
Has the problem been solved?

Does your CWM work?? i think the problem is that you're using stock kernel...because none of the other custom kernels show Sony Ericsson at startup...not even the ICS official sony stock kernel...Try flashing a different kernel...

Hi!I have a problem with my huawei vision.I wanted to install android 4.2.1 jelly bean from another phone and now my phone start and stuck at huawei logo....PC dont recognized him......No recovery No fastboot No nothing.....What should i do?:|
Someone help me?please?
You should never install ROMs or flash kernels which are made for another phone to your own phone. Each ROM is made specificaly for one device making it hardly possible to work properly on others.
If you have an unlocked bootloader then you could simply flash a kernel with CWM recovery and flash another supported ROM.
If you have a locked bootloader (also if you don't know what that is, then this is probably what you have) and if you haven't flashed any custom kernels (if you don't know what those are then you probably haven't) then your only hope is to find and flash the stock ROM back on it.
EDIT: If you're phone is the Huawei U8850 aka Vision then this is a stock ROM you can use:
https://mega.co.nz/#!hxIEDTrZ!ejEk1AC5f6S4aJ0iLx2rIkB0gMJIUMY5-_8iPDIZcfI
Probaly i have locked bootloader ....but how i unlock bootloader because my pc don recognized my phone nothing....
Download the U8850 Upgrade package from here. Unpack it and install SUT L3 and the USB drivers from the unpacked files. With SUT L3 you will flash this firmware which will enable CWM recovery on your device which you can access by pressing Vol- and Power button at the same time when you turn your phone on (you don't have to enter it after flashing this firmware I gave you because it should work fine).
First boot will take a while, but if it takes more than aprox. 15 minutes than something's wrong again.
EDIT: If everything goes fine and you want an ICS ROM than you can hop to this thread/tutorial. BUT DO THIS ONLY IF AND AFTER YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED AND BOOTED THE ABOVE FIRMWARE!
Dont work....Pc dont recognized him......
If SUT L3 is not detecting your phone when you connect it, neither turned off nor turned on, then I'm afraid you just bricked your phone.
Thank you! I finish problem:*!
Now ...i have a problem...when i want to install firmware .....error : task 2 of 2 ,download image fail error=device_not_configure
Glad to hear that! Just remember to never use ROMs which are not made specifically for your device!
Sent from my Xperia X10 using xda app-developers app
But ....with error?.....i cant install android:|.....error appear in sut l3..
Did you install the required USB drivers from the upgrade tools I gave you?
Sent from my Xperia X10 using xda app-developers app
Yes i install.....now boot recovery .....but i cant select anything..
Use the volume hard keys.
Sent from my Xperia X10 using xda app-developers app
i use.....but when i click on "install zip from sdcard" nothing
How?
U must first transfer a ROM in zip format to your SD card and then select it via recovery.
But I lost you there a little. Was the recovery there before or did you successfully install the firmware via SUT L3? Because if you have, than you should be able to boot the Gingerbread ROM from the firmware.

Hi CCVader,
I've got a similar problem with my Huawei Vision that I bought/bricked yesterday. I managed to download an image file to my phone that was rooted and allowed me to boot to cwm. From the CWM Recovery screen I installed jellybean.zip, but after restart the phone hangs on the red Huawei screen. Every minute or so the screen goes black then comes right back to the red logo. Is this the 'first boot' you are describing above? Shall I just leave it doing this for 15 mins?
Thanks.
James.

You can't just flash ROMs without the appropriate kernel istalled. U8850 comes with Gingerbread and with the GB kernel.
Flash this.

OK, I'll give that a go when I get home. The firmware you've linked me to - is this GB?
One thing that concerns me - the Software Update Tool detects my phone if I attach it while it is on CWM, but if I try to install the original image it keeps failing. Equally, trying to install a tested nb0 file from the stock recovery tool also now fails.
The little bit of home I have is that I can still get to CWM Recovery - as long as I can do this, does that mean there is a chance I can unbrick my phone?
Many thanks for the quick response.
Hi! Yesterday I tried to restore my Xperia J to .31 fw from Seraphic Season 7 because I got some problem with this ROM...
When I tried to restore, flashtool has stalled at "Flashing loader.sin finished" and no longer went on for half an hour so I unplugged the device and tried to turn it on but remained in bootloop... What can I do to restore my device? Can I unbrick it? :crying:

Had this same problems when I tried to go from a cyanogenmod rom to a newer custom rom. I've bricked it 5 or six times over the last few days trying to get CWM that works permanently like the one I had before 1st brick.
To unbrick mine I found I hadn't got the latest Flashtool [ver 0.9.18.4] this has BLU written beside the flash sign.
Plugged phone whilst in off state whilst holding down vol button for Flash mode
Hit BLU then I locked bootload then flashed ST26i_11.0.A.3.28_WE.ftf
the last time after locked bootload I used PC companion which gave me a Jelly Bean update.
But now I stuck as I can't find a permanent CWM.
This worked because I had ST26i_11.0.A.3.28_WE.ftf in my SD card. But it would seem from what I've encountered some ROMs ,kernals and other stuff people post don't like mixing together and having bootload locked you might be able to flash .ftf files or use PC companion to get phone back into a working state.

That is what worked for me. Once it needed doing twice [can't remember if it was the relock or the firmware flash] it came up with error message first time but second attempt it worked. Good idea to have the plastic back off phone for dropping out the battery if you get into a loop.
Once locked Sony PC Companion sees phone as well but will probably give you Jelly Bean software. [tick box repair phone]
I have an M2, I did, something to it which involved flashing something and unlocking the bootloader, It got bricked, and the only way i could recover it is with the tiny off button next to the Sim-Slot (Lifesaver, Thanks Sony) and putting it into that flash mode thing where the light goes blue, and Flashing a stock firmware, Or so I thought, It was customised, Also in the whole process I somehow Downgraded to Jelly Bean, and the Updater says that I have custom firmware, I have clockworkmod, But it didnt work properly and now i have no recovery menu at all also Miracast is broken, HSDP (Some sort of DRM thing) failed probably caused by one of these issues
So yeah does anyone have a Firmware for my device so that the Sony Updater will accept it? Don't care which android version, as long as It can be updated back up to KitKat and is UK GENERIC no customisations
All i wanted was to root my phone to get a WiFi password that I lost
Thanks

No the sony software picks up any device if the bootloader is unlocked. it will only re-flash the firmware if the bootloader is locked.
However you can use flash tool http://www.flashtool.net/index.php and it will do it for unlocked bootloaders.

Make sure the drivers are installed for your phone on you laptop/PC first.
once you have downloaded a Firmware for the M2 you put the firmware in the firmware folder of the flashtool directory then you select the thunderbolt icon. select flash mode and follow the instructions. Also it will say press the back button in the instructions instead you need to press vol down for flash mode or up for fastboot mode.
Once done you get a little window that shows and just select the firmware you want to flash and the way you go.
you can unlock and re-lock bootloaders with flashtool but I think you need to have unlocked it with flash tool to do that.

If you only need a functional KK 4.4.4 phone then choose Customized UK 18.3.1.C.1.13 in xperifirm, download it, wait for it to unpack the files.
Then you need to use flashtool, got to Tools->Bundles->Create to create a flashable .ftf file. Select all the files in the folder where you downloaded the rom, fill in the fields for version/branding/device and click create.
Lastly, you click the Lightning button in flashtool, select flashmode, select your newly created ftf.
When it asks to connect your phone, power off the phone, press&hold the VolDown button when inserting the usb cable, the led should blink briefly green once. The flashing should begin at that moment.

At the ftf selection window, under [Wipe:], uncheck [DATA]. That way, your data will not get erased and It might save you from reinstalling everything.... In theory
Try with DATA unchecked first, see if all is fine. If not then reflash the clean way, with DATA checked. Tell us here how it went.

Then, 2 possibilities come to mind, you either didnt download the latest version (18.3.1.C.1.13) or didnt select it correctly in flashtool. I hope you only unchecked DATA, not checked everything under Exclude
How much time did the flashing process take, it should be, maybe more than 5 minutes

Sorry about that.
And I think I screwed something up. (See files labeled "Screenshot")
I can't get anything to open. I tired to restart, doesn't help. Can't even clear cache because I can't get into settings.
Does it have anything to do with these apps? I tried to install them via installer, and that's when I started getting probelms...

and this one (see z3apks zip)
Now I can't even open installer anymore, access settings, the play store, etc. Pretty much everything that I need working in the phone.
Please help me. I bet it's a simple fix too. I just don't want to make it any worse
I can still uninstall via RootUninstaller etc, but I don't know if that is okay to do.
I don't have backup versions of those apps, and I have no idea which of the 4
were installed previously, and which are safe to uninstall. Guide me in the right direction?

Please help me. I bet it's a simple fix too. I just don't want to make it any worse
I can still uninstall via RootUninstaller etc, but I don't know if that is okay to do.
I don't have backup versions of those apps, and I have no idea which of the 4
were installed previously, and which are safe to uninstall. Guide me in the right direction?

Flash a ftf with flashtool or factory reset after do some backup.. Don't know what is causing this exactly easier to restart from scratch.

Okay. I have fixed everything.
I have flashed the firmware again.
I am fully rooted.
And I have NDR Utils but I have no idea how to use it.
Can you please tell me how to flash it? I do not know where to begin, and this is where I screwed up last time.
THIS is all I want.... Thank you :]
{note ROM MANAGER tells me that the D6603 is "not supported" or something. So I won't ever be able to install CWM?}

So you're on 4.4.4 rooted you have NDR utile so you already install XZDR with a pc ? Alright ? Don't need to use rom manager. D6603 is not "officially" supported.
You only don't know how to reboot into recovery ?
In NDR utils you can chose in which recovery you want to boot and reboot to recovery or power off the phone then press power, release it first led turn on and press many times vol - to twrp or vol + to cwm the led colour will change btw twrp or cwm is the same thing then flash select the file and reboot
For your files read the requierments you need also superusermod with Xposed and mod from serajr.. You need to flash appropriate Xposed in recevery then install serajr mod then activate superusermod in it to get fully fonctionnal recorder.
All this for just a recorder there's app for it on Google store.

I had the "auto call recorder" app installed from Xposed on my Xperia Z1. When I installed it on my Xperia Z3, it doesn't work anymore! So that's why I want to try this.
How do I know which recovery I want to boot into? I have NEVER used NDR before. How do I flash Xposed? I have it installed, but I don't think it is flashed? Is there a guide?
I am not familiar with any of this at all, so I just want to be very careful when doing all of this. Thank you.
What I don't understand is why you complicate your life just for THIS phone recorder .. For this you need to install XPOSED to have superusermod before (Xposed api 19 arm which is no more supported and don't know where download it)and it's only compatible with KitKat we are on Marshmallow now .. There a lot of phone recorder on the Google Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder
I'm trying to understand where you are ... you are on 4.4.4 rooted okay .. but have you already install the recovery XZDR or not ??? The recovery you need to go next
If yes
you only need to reboot into recovery the way I tell (Power then Vol - until colour led change) you then flash :
Xposed API 19 ARM (for KitKat) >> If you find this file
Reboot
Install Xposed app download module Serajr Xperia Xposed check superusermod reboot
Return in recovery flash your recorder reboot
it work
If No return on top of this thread and install XZDR then read If Yes
If I was you Install XZDR then flash prerooted Marshmallow (Or lollipop at least) and just install an autorecorder from Google Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder. Or Go install a Custom Rom for LckedBootloader maybe one already include a phone recorder on it
