Yeah, no problem. Install flashtool in your PC and install all the drivers. Also install Sony PC Companion, it resolves some of your driver problems. Then Connect your phone to PC in flashmode( remove your battery, hold volume down button and connect to PC, LED will turn green ) and just flash your stock rom ftf file using flashtool, everything goes fine. You can download flashtool from here.

Have you unlocked your boot loader.
If yes then flash kernel from .62 firmware and then use any rooting method you want. Eg.unlock root

Hi,
The only way to get your phone's bootloader unlocked if the unlock status says no, is paying for it.
Now, you can't enter fastboot? That's because your bootloader isn't unlocked!
Hope I helped and a ha a nice day!

I believe there are a couple or ROM s out there for your J, that don't need an unlocked bootloader. Just search through the forum!

By unlocking the bootloader . Plus, you only need fastboot for flashing a kernel with recovery.

Will there be a problem if I flash D2305 - 18.0.A.1.30 on D2303, to be able to root with doomlord's root method?
I wouldn't try a different firmware on the D2303.
Just wait a bit as @DooMLoRD is working on a version for us on the D2303. Hopefully it'll be available in the next day or two.

system ui crash
I flashed m xperia m2 with the its default firmware XPERIA M2 D2303 Central Europe 18.0.C.1.13 .
Now when the phone starts it gives me : Unfortunate, System UI has stopped. and i cant do anything on it , it gives me that everytime.
Anyone had this problem and how can i solve it ?
I tried to flash to default rom several times but the error msg keeps appearing.
Any help is appreciated
Thanx
Will need a full reset. Do it from recovery (keep tapping volume down on the Sony boot up screen) be sure to back up all your data though as it will erase the phones internal memory.

Where did you get cwm for the D2303? The only one I know of that is out is for the D2305. Installing the D2305 cwm on the D2303 will cause you problems.

But all works,without Backup Restore.
We can hope in the Future.
recovery without backup restore. riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
The recovery is able to flash zip packages. I flashed a font and it worked perfectly!! The big question is if we will be able to flash a ported rom, lets say from G Flex for example.
