Using CM12 Lollipop ROM and Thunderzap 4.7 kernel. I want to return to stock ROM, so I tried flashing it via both Sony PC Companion repair and Flashtool. However, no matter whether I press Vol Up or Vol Down during the boot, it always enters Recovery. Any way I could access Flashmode? Or am I missing some step I should do before attempting to flash?
1st you have to read document about flashing properly. Read twice. You must not start phone after switch off it. Just start flashtool on PC. And you have to press volume down button and insert USB cable simultaneously. Don't switch on your phone. It will led your phone into flash mode. Green light will blink once in notification light area.

I have installed the ADB drivers correctly. dont know what to do next
When Flashtool asks to connect your device, be sure that you phone is powered off (for at least 30 seconds) then press Volume down and connect the USB cable. Release Volume button when Flashtool starts to work.

its a drivers issue u dont need the adb drivers but you need flashtool drivers so navigate to flashtool folder (c:/flashtool)
> open drives folder and install all drivers in case you want to flash another device .
if after installing the drivers still the same problem try another usb cable/port
press thanks if helped :good:

but still no luck
Hi guys, forgot my pattern password on xperia z3 D6603, tried to login with google account but it says - wrong id or password. My phone is not rooted, USB debugging off. I tried to run into Recovery mode( with volume down/up and power buttons - phone just turns on normally. Sony PC Companion doesn't work either. Any solutions for this?!
putting the phone into recovery mode via this method should work, it's odd it isn't for you:
>1. Turn off your Xperia Z3: press power key and select "power off" or press and hold power key for a few moments.
>2. Power on your device and when the LED notification lights turn on press several times Volume Up or Volume down buttons.
>3. At the end, your Xperia Z3 will be rebooted into recovery mode.
give it another try?
Edit: Derp actually tried it on mine and it doesn't work for me either. Currently pressing random buttons while starting it, maybe trial and error will yield results.

Think I got it:
>Power device off
>Press and hold only the down volume key
>press and hold the power button until the phone vibrates; release power button but continue to hold volume down key.
seems to work consistently on my Z3 (Tmobile variant though I doubt it would make a difference)

The code is not working on this model (Z3 D6603), I dont think that I can use flashtool since it does not reconise my phone. It says 'Device connected with USB debugging off'.

okay...
debugging is NOT necessary, the device must be switched off when using FlashTool...

hi everybody
after getting marshmallow I had encountered big problem with proximity sensor
so I decided to get back to lollipop
unfortunately I forgot to enable USB debugging mode and got into boot loop and Sony logo just out there
I tried every possible way on the internet
rooting , flashing without system.sin , flashing recovery , fast boot options
and finally I found one and problem is solved
1 - getting an older flash tool (like 0.9.18.5 worked for me )
2 - changing tft file and get another firmware
hope this help anyone and happy this problem had gone .
thanks xda members :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::good:

Red led light when chariging or connecting to PC (not blinking). I tried repluging battery and power+volup(voldown not working ;c) but it doesnt help,. Any ideas?
Phone reacting to "Reboot device into system" in flashtool.

Just so you know, If you were planning to flash stock ROM you have to boot into flash mode. To access flash mode you have to hold down the volume down button.

Solved. Phone was Soft-Bricked and problem: Low Battery level.
i am trying to flash TWRP - 2.8.7.0 recovery to my xperia m2 . i am successful and i can install custom ROM from TWRP recovery mode but flashmode( volume down key + power key) is not working any more, fastboot mode (volume up key + power key) is working correctly. please help me i want to install factory ROM that is provided by sony but i am stuck because of unable to turn on flashmode.
thank you
Just an idea but try this, open the sim card tray and use a pin to press the red button and after that wait for 1 minute at least and first hold the volume button down and then while holding it, hold the power button too for 5~ seconds iirc. Or wait upto a minute and see if it triggers.
Delete my post pls
Isn't that you need to hold volume - and connect to usb to get in flashmode?

already tried that, it will directly go to TWRP recovery menu by pressing volume down key and power button. By holding volume down key and connecting usb it will turn on flashmode but that did not happen any more.

yah but that option was not working after recovery flash and unable to turn on flashmode by pressing volume - key and connecting usb.
Does anyone know the solution to this? I'm stuck with a soft bricked xperia M2 D2303, bootloop and can't open recovery mode. Tried to connect to PC and run flashmode, but not working, I'm just getting a green blink, not the solid color for the LED.
It does run fastboot, but no flashboot. Any ideas?
PS: I have no idea what my IMEI is.

For the Flashmode, the green led has to blink one time. So that's normal.
And did you installed Flashmode drivers?
