[Q] Flash Rom/ via fastboot //HELP, It's a matter of life and death. - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
I bricked my phone cause I completely wiped it and I can't access the recovery.
The only thing I can do is entering fastboot-mode, I already installed these "fastboot adb-drivers".
Now how do I flash a rom in these circumstances?? PLEASE HELP, MY Z3 IS ONLY A WEEK OLD AND I'M POOR MOD EDIT by @gregbradley Rule 2.1
Thanks

If you unlocked the boot then flash a custom kernel and then a rom in recovery
If not, you need to enter flashmode and flash a FTF using flashtool
And this will always work with a locked bootloader, download PCCompanion and choose update software, then click on the 'repair my phone.' options and follow the instructions
EDIT
It may be an idea to change your user name. Send a PM to @MikeChannon to do it

Don't worry about that, just follow the instructions. You have to attach it in flashmode not fastboot

Just update your ROM really. There is plenty of them out there. If you are rooted you are over half way there. Just flash and enjoy

If you are rooted unless someone else did it for you then flashing a ROM is a breeze. If you just wanna get updated to the latest build then follow the suggestion above. It has what looks like good step by step instructions for you to follow.

Please step by step list exactly what you did to get to this point.
e.g.
1. I booted into the bootloader by issuing ./adb reboot-bootloader
2. I unlocked by issuing ./fastboot oem-unlock [unlockcode]
etc., etc.
The information you have provided is not remotely close to enough to help you.
Flash hw_data and public zips for your build number in twrp.

Well if nothing worked and you haven't yet void your guaranty terms, you could search for Huawei customer care center / Huawei store. If you haven't tryed HiSuit or Odin you can still try those.

Yes definitely you need to unlock bootloader first, but as we know you can't end this process because of system crash.
You can contact over "HiCare(app)---->Local service hotline" what your further steps should be. Good luck.
