plz help!! I'm trying to enter recovery mode but it doesn't go in that mode, it simply restarts.
I have tried:
1) doing manually (pressing power button than volume up or down button several times.
2) Trying to Enter Recovery Mode with ADB
3) Trying to Enter Recovery Mode with QuickBoot App
I have rooted my device(Xperia Z2 - D6503). I actually downgraded from 23.0.1.A.0.167 to 17.1.A.2.55(Australia - Vodafone - 1282-1393) using flash and then rooted.
I also unlocked its bootloader.
Is it normal NOT GETTING SYSTEM UPDATES??
Is there any way to go back to its original sony default ROM(i.e. back to 23.0.1.A.0.167 - NOT CUSTOM ROM)
Hi,
Here is a dedicated help thread in your device section that you can ask for help in,
> Sony Xperia Z2 > Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [INFO] ALL You Need To Know About Owning A Xperia Z2
I would read the first few posts first, answers may already be there.
Good luck!

my phn got bricked
which thankfully i got it back..
but after that i am trying to enter into recovery mode it does not opens
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
On many devices, that is the stock recovery, and to get in its some button combo. You can probably flash a custom recovery, if that's what you had before. Either way, Here is where to ask for help with your device....

Hi
I've been using this sony phone xperia ion.
I want to install kitkat in my phone so i've got this link>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682782
Which requires twrp/cwm recovery mode so i followed this link>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634375
I've unlocked my bootloader, rooted it and aslo installed busy box.
But in the second thread it is written that to enter twrp recovery reboot the phone and press volume up button and blue lead will appear, leadind to twrp recovery screen. And for cwm hold volume button down and the red led will appear.
But the problem is when i reboot and hold volume button up the blue led flashes only for like 2 seconds and sony boot screen following xperia logo appears and my phone carries only restart command rather than directing to twrp recovery mode.
For cwm, when i hold volume button down, nothing happens and as usual my phone only gets restart.
How can i flash this cyanogen mod 11 kitkat if i cant flash it when twrp or cwm commands never appears during reboot?
N.B. - I am not any kind of developer. I just google and implement the ideas and shown path.
Thanks.
Hi,
Asking in the recovery link you posted is what you should do.
We're just here to help members navigate the site, not for support.
Thank you for understanding!
I don't know what to do now. Any help from anyone assisting to flash this kitkat would've been nice. And I'm trying twrp as well as cwm recovery but got no clues at all. seems like I can't flash it in my ion.

As I suggested, ask in the recovery thread. I'm sure you'll find help.

If those threads aren't helpful, then asking the experts who own your device for help here would be best,
Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion > Xperia S, Acro S, Ion Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD][XPERIA S, ACRO S & ION]Ask any question. NOOB friendly
And the worst part is, volume up button for twrp and down button for cwm never directs me to any mode screen.

My friend... Ask where I pointed you. ?
Thread closed. Thank you.
My device is C6903 (14.4.a.0.108) bought from the Philippines. It's already rooted and has an unlocked bootloader.
The problem is when I installed this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699803 it now wouldn't boot it just shows the Sony logo and after 2 minutes or so it just blacked out. but when i tap the screen on a dark room the screen shows the black background without the sony logo and after a moment it darkened again like its in lock screen (Its really hard to describe).
I flashed it using fastboot. with this command
/ fastboot flash boot boot.img / and after I input this command
/ fastboot reboot /.
Its still charging and it shows the battery icon when charging on an off state. It can still be recognized by fastboot when i connected it to the computer.
Ive already hard reset it using the button on the sim card slot and the other method the power button and the volume up. It didn't really helped. help me guys Im new in this flashing methods. What should I do?
Hi,
Did you read the requirements at the beginning of post number 1? Did you meet those requirements? The best place to ask about this is in the kernel thread you linked in your post. If that doesn't help you, you can ask for help here....

Any future questions can be asked in the above section also.
Good luck!

thanks for replying. I have managed to get out of the situation but now I'm facing another one. My phone is now on boot loop. I tried using flashtool but it wouldn't work. While on flashboot doing its job, my phone would just boot up and go again on a boot loop. flashtool log would just say device disconnected.
I think I found a way to do another trick using fastboot but I don't have a custom recovery installed. Is there any way that I can install CWM or any tools like it using only fastboot? I've been looking for it the whole time but I can't find one. I'm new to this thing by the way. Thanks again!
I've found one. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Template:Recovery_install_fastboot
Can i flash this Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.7.154-BETA.flashable.zip (if its possible ) instead of the .img that was mentioned on the site. I can't find a recovery.img for my device.
Again, please ask in your device section linked above.
Thanks!
Thank you. Thread closed.
Hi,
I have just by a Sony Ericson Xperia arc S. I have wanted to install a custom rom. But when I was in unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com I have cheked if my device is bootable (using *#*#7378423#*#* and checking Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status). And my Bootloader unlock allowed says No.
How can I do to force the Bootloader to Yes ?
Information : My device is unsimlocking.
Thank you !
Hi,
Here is a similar thread that has many ideas and other links,
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc > Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > Unlocking bootloader on Xperia Arc S
Good luck!
Thank you for your reply,
I have already test this link before create this help post. I can see that in different posts :
"I'm pretty sure that if you are not allowed to unlock it, there is no way to unlock it."
"If the light above the USB port on your phone doesn’t turn blue when you connect your phone using the USB cable to your PC while holding the “MENU” button (on Xperia Arc. For Xperia Play – “SEARCH” button), then it means that you cannot connect to fastboot, and hence you cannot unlock the boot loader."
And it's what append for me. So I think it's not possible ?
I would ask about it in the thread I linked. ?
So my phone is bricked also cannot go to fastboot/flashmode mode and when i charge my phone it shows a red led then turns off then shows Sony XPERIA boot then turns off then led comes back on, then i take the usb cable out and try to turn it off it flashes red led 3 times (which says it can't turn on) my phone isn't rooted and i can't go to recovery mode.
Last time it was on USB Debugging was enabled but once flashtool said it has it disabled, and i have a firmware to flash on my phone but it doesn't work because the phone is not detected (also when plugged in my laptop i can't access storage a.k.a my laptop can't detect it.)
And when my phone WAS working when i pressed the recovery keys to go to recovery mode and it didn't work
Also i was searching for more than 1 or 2 weeks looking for something that would fix my phone.
And I tried to root my phone with the tutorial on THIS SITE and this is what happened.
So someone please help me.
