[Q] Brick problem, maybe? - Sony Xperia L

Hi. I got some problems with my Xperia L C2104 today. Few days ago, it just display Entel logo and get freeze from there. After that, I try to restore it with Sony PC Companion, but it throws an error in "Updating Screen" (I choosed repair cel/table, etc etc), something about internet connection or something else. Then, I read a lot about flashing, fastboot, flashboot and everything on this forum, and I try many solutions exposed here and none works for me . My situation is the following; I can enter in fastboot, the blue light turns on and my PC recognize it, but some solutions, like use command window, throws me an error like "FAILED: Commando not allowed". This message appairs when I try:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
etc
Includes, fastboot reboot, for instance.
My PC doesnt recognize my phone in "flash boot", the green lights turn on but nothing happens .
Can I do something else? I wanna discard some reasons about this problem, but I need some help.
This is my first post, and my english isn't so good., sorry.
Please help me !

Entel logo is my operator, like Vodafone, for example. Few days ago, my phone get that logo, after "Sony" screen and then get freeze. I want to wake up my phone, I cant access it. About the ROM, it was using the stock rom. I dont think that is a driver problem, before all of this, Sony PC Companion could recognize my phone when I was trying to "repair" with it. But actually, Flash Tool doesn't recognize my phone in flash boot, but it does in fastboot. Well, I tried to flash a kernel with Flash Tool in fast boot mode, but I received the same message (FAILED: Command not allowed), reading and reading I imagine that my phone doesn't allow to unlock the bootloader. In addition, I try to unlock it officially (Sony's tutorial using IMEI, etc) but I received the same message (FAILED: Command not allowed). I read that if a phone can't access to the fast boot, it means that it not allow bootloader unlocking. How can I explain, so, that I received Command not allowed every time?
Just right now, I think that my phone loses its battery level, so when I connect it to the computer, I listen the Windows sounds (when u connect a new hardware) but nothing happens, I cant find my device in the device manager neither. Then, the initial red light turns on green light and i listen the sound that indicates a device disconnecting . In addition, my phone doesnt recharge its battery right now.
So, some ideas now?
Thanks.

Thanks for ur answer. Anyway, I can't go to the dialer, 'cause I can access to the phone. In addition, I check fastboot and flashboot when I install the flash tool. I just know that ftf is an extension for ROMs, but flashtool just admite it when I try to flash en flash boot, but, I CANT ACCESS TO THE FLASH BOOT ! So I try to flash some boot.img in fast boot mode, but I get that ****id message (FAILED: Command not allowed).
Thanks.

I tried to install the drivers again in another computer, but the situation is the same. I installed ADK Manager, and select all recommended drivers for android devices. When I try to put my phone in flash mode (vol -) my PC sounds and I get a red light. After 30 sec aprox, the red light turns on green, and W7 sounds like a hardware disconnect. After that, Sony PC Companion and Flash tool dont recognize the flash mode that Im trying, and well, same situation.
Thanks for ur ideas. I dont know what to do XD

Do this and restart your pc
Used latest flashtool ver..
In flashtool folder there's drivers folder to install the driver
tick those for installing the phone driver(taoshan)
Sometimes usb's cable also can make it worst...so try play a bit..

I uninstall all USB drivers from Device Manager, and re-install all drivers that I need (I guess) + the drivers that u suggested me, but I get the same situation . Reading on internet, some people say that if I received the error "Device unplugged" on "Unidentified Device", probably it happens 'cause the device has not the enough energy to turn on. It can explain a lot of things, but certainly I dont know how to charge my phone. Connecting it to the energy doesn't work :C. Maybe I just have to leave it on Sony Technical Support, but well... I dont know what more to do
Sorry for this, and thanks for ur help

Scroll down and see troubleshooting it might help u
Than ur drivers are not installed correctly
If drivers are installed than u must got a name like adb interface/bridge etc.
If this does not work than
Same as I said in above post
This problem can be caused by ur pc try this on any other pc
And install fastboot drivers or even u can use different USB ports some time USB ports donot work properly
Thank you for your advice. I did it. Now I face a big problem and i am terrified. I tried install fxp 205 but i made a mistake and my tipo doesn't work. My pc can't recognize it, so i can't flash ftf via flashtool. Please if you can help me!

Be sure if ur phone is hardbricked sometimes it looks like but it is not
If hard bricked.......
Go to Sony service centre and there is also one thing I have heard about
"Jtag" it can unbrick many hard bricked phones at very low cost...
Go for it if it is available in ur country..
Better luck next time

[Q] How to flash stock rom/firmware on a bricked Xperia C?

After moded my xperia c to add bravia engine, I was stuck on boot animation. The phone was not in USB debugging mode since I was trying to mod it after a recent software update using sony pc companion. Tried flastool, SP Flashtool, SUS & Pc companion to repair it but everything just don't work. Is there any other way to repair it other than sending it to service centre?

Have you tried the "repair my phone/tablet" option on the pc companion? if not try it. it worked for me. turn-off your xperia c. make sure it's turned-off. open sony pc companion. connect your phone to your pc via usb. click on the start button on the support zone box/tab. click start on the phone/tablet software update. click the "repair my phone/tablet" link. the blue text with an underline. follow the onscreen instruction.
Try Sony Update Centre.. Just make sure your fastboot & flashboot drivers are properly

I had tried both of your suggestion but unfortunately it does not work for me. I end up sending it to Sony service centre yesterday. Finger crossed now and hope for the best.
just got my xperia c today from sony service centre. luckily they did not know I had rooted my phone and they did not charge me for repairing it. :victory:
sorry for being late
and i know op has got his phone repaired
but this is for the future usage
if any one who stuck at boot logo or any where and wants to reflash firware using sony tool
follow below steps
as our phone's batter is non removable its quite odd but once u understand its easy
first understand this
to use sony tool we have to connect our phone in flash mod to pc
and
and to do so remove back cover and connect your phone in any mod with pc via usb cable
and then press hardreset button
so that your phone will reboot and connect in charging mod
now remove data cable so your phone will turn off
now that your phone is turn off every thing is done
you just need to sony update tool open it and connect your phone in flash mod
and taadaa

i already tried on
1. Pc companion (error: no new update avialable for your phone),
2. EMMA (error: bootloader locked)
may be there is a chance for flashing with flashtool , where to get sony xperia c firmware (.ftf) file?
** may be one big chance is restore original build.prop with CWM using update.zip.
** my xperia came with "android recovery 3e " and its all time shows "installation aborted" with update.zip file........... so do u know how to install CWM with flash boot or any other way???

sorry for being late
and i know op has got his phone repaired
but this is for the future usage
if any one who stuck at boot logo or any where and wants to reflash firware using sony tool
follow below steps
as our phone's batter is non removable its quite odd but once u understand its easy
first understand this
to use sony tool we have to connect our phone in flash mod to pc
and
and to do so remove back cover and connect your phone in any mod with pc via usb cable
and then press hardreset button
so that your phone will reboot and connect in charging mod
now remove data cable so your phone will turn off
now that your phone is turn off every thing is done
you just need to sony update tool(not PC companion ) open it and connect your phone in flash mod
link to download http://software.sonymobile.com/update_service_setup
it will say your firmware is up to date
and there wod b option for re install or something like that find it and hit on that option

[Q] xperia z3 fastboot mode problem

I wanted to wipe user data , so I googled for that to make a hard reset from bootloader and I found some steps :
1) Turn Off handset .
2) Press Up volume and connect to the computer through USB .
My mobile led went blue , but the computer gave me "device not recognized " message .
so I pressed Power Button to exit this mode , The led went off but the mobile didn't responde.
the screen is black and the mobile not responding Since then .
When I connect it to the computer it recognize that a usb device is plugged but with the message " device not recognized"
Tried many things , like press down volume and connect , or down volume and power , down,up and power ... etc , and nothing works .
Can any one help please
Hey did you even install the fastboot driver for xperia z3?
yeah the one that called Emma .
and another one called (Flashtool) but still my windows can't recognize it .
windows 8.1 by the way .
u might need to install the driver provided by flashtools.
installing non certified drivers are bit tricky on win8 & later which u need to reboot in special mode.
or maybe pc companion include that driver.

EMMA is not non certified.
But the drivers can also be found on internet in a form of an .exe application.
I did installed the drivers in windows test mode , Still the same it can't recognize my phone .

ihad used that trick after whole day research , I can conclude S1tools does not support 2012 upgrade model, I received error as ID HASH IS NOT SUPPORTED,
however my bootloder is unlocked, and I hav unlocked code also, and also phone is rooted ,
Yes this could work for us as we still doesn't have the preloader dump.
AFAIK there is not unbricking way for now.
Somewhere I read that pc companion could work with Q9008. Also worth to try with emma.
I want working on this to finalize the unbricking guide but will not be soon as I need my device for the rom port. When done I will work on this unbricking.
Also it is not a kernel problem. Your flash replaced s1 bootloader with a wrong one.
Good luck a be patient

Sorry for confusing :s
I think, today, there is no way.
You can try with the official emma flash tool or pc companion but I really doubt.

Not related with TA backup for now. You change your bootloader with a wrong one.
It is almost like if you flash the wrong bios on your mother board. You can't flash it again until someone find an 'electronic' way.
Give a try with pc companion or emma.

Pc companion is not reconize the fevice actually i explain what i idid,
I was flashing d6616 by flash tool
Firstly i unlock bootloder by sony , through unlock code they email then i rooted the device by kingo root n then flash accidently i chosse d6646 rom instead of d6616 rom then during flashing flashtool gives error at kernal.sin and after that device goesoff
When i plug into the pc it reconize my device as SOMC Flash device andflash tool gives dubugging off
Thats was the whole senrio by which my device brick so after whole story i really disappointed to know that my device is just use for paper weight... :crying:
I downloaded the emma after install it desnot show any usb device
You own a d6616? It have unlockable bootloader :s
Send it to repair center. No other choice.
And yes it is confusing, it say bootloader unlock after the fastboot command but it is not true.
@blackhawk_LA made some posts about D6616. Maybe he could help you.
I just post here to announce you the bad new your device is hardly softbricked.

Tanks buddy I am watching your thread, and also let me know when done,
Hi, I decided to post it here because it seems that anything I post on Xperia Ion forum is not read, it is inactive.
I already searched everywhere and I'm loosing my hopes. I'm trying to revive an Xperia Ion and this is what I get:
When I plug the phone in the wall charger the red led turns on for some minutes and then turns off.
The same happens when I plug on PC, when the led turns off it is detected as "Somc flash device" in windows device manager and this shows in flashtool:
INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
Nothing changes if I plug in pc with volume + or - pressed, it don't goes into fastboot or flashmode.
I hope you could help me. Thanks
dude i have the same problem as yours i have a z3 d6643 and i made a mistake when downloading the kernal the device loads normal flash mode and flashtools working! power button + volume down runs twrp but it no longer starts at sony black screen someone please help!

Same problem with an XZ, someone has a solution?
sometime Win recognize the device as QUSB_BULK

Accidental wrong flash with Flashtool

Looks like I killed my Z5. The model is 6683 (Z5 dual), and I flashed with E6533 (Z3+ dual).
The phone is completely dead, cannot turn on, not vibrating on power button etc.
When I connect to my laptop, it says "unable to recognize USB device", in detail VID_0000&PID_0000.
But if I disconnect the battery, it recognized as "SOMC Flash device", VID_0FCE&PID_DDDE
Is it possible to resurrect it?
I hope if I can flash with correct bootloader in this state, it will enought to boot up and able to flash with the right firmware.

Are you able to connect it in flashmode and fastboot ?
With battery, no.
Without battery, my laptop recognize as "SOMC Flash device", but no tool can connect to it (like FlashTool).
(I think then different PID is the reason)

it seems to me that you are an advanced person in playing with your mobile, this kind of issues is beyond of my knowledge but I was replying to your thread hopefully someone here can help, I'm fearing that you have messed up with your mobile
Well, you could try to flash it from Ubuntu (NOT inside Windows 10 !) via FlashTool,
under windows there are limitations with different device IDs that separate drivers would be needed (and if only "wrong" ID is detected under Linux it doesn't really matter, since it's detected anyway),
perhaps under Linux operating systems you have more luck
Thank you for idea, but not working.
Finally I found an old SETool3 box , and successfully flashed with it without battery
Somehow it can fixed it.

wrong flash means wrong kernel!
you might be stuck on black screen when you frist switchon device! the device is running! but since its stuck on bootloops no interface is open!
press power and volume up button for 15+ seconds and let it JERK 3 times , this if force shutdown. the device should get connected now in flashmode
