Thank you for your kind help, but when I try to flash my device (again) I click BLU for pluging phone holding Vol Down and after when I connect it does not flash my device again it only gives me option for relock my device. What should I do?
I must say I finished rooting and flash first time which lead me to be stuck in Sony Logo window, then I tried to fix it by using the method mentioned on second Tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/help/xperia-e3-stuck-boot-screen-sony-logo-t2938585 which lead me to this issue stuck in CWM loop...

Dude BLU for bootloader unlocking and you wanna click On thunder icon and choose flashmode(off and holding volume down & connect)for flashing ftf and fastboot mode(off and Holding volume up while connect to pc) for Flashing Kernel image files

You can try flashing sony ftfs. Connect your phone in flash mode. Flash ftfs with flashtool. I think it'll format your internal storage. Make sure you've a backup of that.

Root will give you access to the phone's system files. It's required for most firmware tweaks and modifications, as well as by many apps on the play store. Root explorer is one of the many root browsers (file manager that can take advantage of the root access) available in the play store. Another one I'm using on my xperia u is root browser. Anyway, you can gain root access extremely easy on your phone. There are many ways, but since I guess you're new to that stuff, you should do it with a rooting toolkit. Since you have the 6.1.1.b.1.100 build, you first need to flash the kernel of the 6.1.1.b.1.10. After this you can use a rooting toolkit to root your device. After rooting, you'll need to flash the 6.1.1.b.1.100's kernel again. Then you can install a custom recovery, like the one you mentioned. For flashing the kernels you have to use the flashtool (search it on the net) and you can also search the net for a rooting toolkit compatible for your firmware. I don't remember what I had used on my xperia u, since it's now running a custom rom.

[Q] FlashTool: Downgrade not working

Hi all,
I'm trying to downgrade my stock Lollipop ROM (23.1.A.1.28) in order to root it afterwards. I'm using FlashTool 0.9.8.15 on Linux, and it seems to work correctly - but the downgrade fails
Here's the log output of FlashTool:

Opening that FileCommander coming with the ROM I get the info that there's 11.6 GB free on the phone and all 59,4 GB on the SD card. So - how's this??? And (more important): How to fix it?
Thanks for your kind help
Where have you stored the FTF?
Argh, the problem was so easy to solve - I just had to understand that error message - my hard drive simply got filled up when FlashTool tried to unpack the FTF :-/
Hi, I'm trying to do the same thing. I'm using flashtool 0.9.18.6 on windows 8 computer. I keep getting an error prompt stating "processing of loader.sin finished with errors."

I have to say that i cheched Unknown Sources and Debugging and i do all the steps.
Can anybody tell me what can i do?
Thank you
does flashtool pop up a message to you as soon as you plug it in for starting the flash process?
well, this little window message is about "script " to use... and you have to click YES... if you click No, you'd get that error or similar one...
what build numbers you were trying to flash?
i flashed Nordic Generic with no bloatware... except AVG anti-virus and those typical google apps (just disable them) so it's pretty much clean rom!
also go to devices same folder where firmware is stored... and go to XZ folder and check if you have all the required files... just screenshot all and send in here , and lets see how i can help you
Thank you for your answer. When i connect the phone flashtool doesn't pop up any window, just stay for 10 seconds, and for the first time i was tinking that is working but, after that i recive the error. On my phone i have android 7.0: 39.2.A.0.386.
I try with following software:
Xperia XZ_F8331_39.2.A.0.361_Nordic_Generic 7.0
Xperia XZ_F8331_39.2.A.0.374_Australia_Generic 7.0
Xperia XZ_F8331_39.0.A.3.30_Central Europe 1_Generic 6.0.1
and i revice the same results. I have to say that i install drivers from Flashool folder and its all good.
I even try from another computer and the same results... I have to say that i use Flashool for a long time. I flash Xperia X, Xperia Z3, Xperia Z1 and Xperia Z3 Tablet for many times and i had no problem...

ok go to that folder: C:\Users\yourcomputername\.flashTool\devices\F83XX
and you should have some script files exactly like in the attached picture below!
if you don't have that folder... try to uninstall Flashtool and start a fresh installation....
but if you have, you need to create a flash-script otherwise the flashing will not gonna succeed at all....
now, follow the steps carefully.... believe me, its so easy...
first off,
make sure flashtool isn't running (if so, close it)
we're going to select the ( F8331_39.2.A.0.361_R5C_Nordic Generic ) for flashing... it's good and it doesn't have bloatware...
(i flashed it in mine)
2- go to the folder "Devices" scroll down to F83XX... open it, and you will find some .fsc files
copy the name "F8331_39.2.A.0.361_R5C_Nordic Generic" (this is how i have it, if the name you have is different than mine, then use yours....
and then go to that script -> F8331_39.2.A.0.327.fsc then rename it and overwrite with the same one we copied (the one you will use for flashing)
then open flashtool for flashing... wait until the window pops up asking you to connect your phone for flashing... then put your phone..... a message will pop up notifying you about "a new script was detected and if you want to use it" click YES or OK.. and then wait, and hopefully it will continue the flashing process successfully...
Good luck and let me know how's everything went
it works. thank you so much.

Hello there
I had the same problem with my Xperia Z2, so I found your thread while searching for a solution. First "Bundle does not match device" and then "root: This bundle is not valid" .
I could just solve this (strange) issue, so here are some tips how I managed it:
I assume that you installed the newest version of flashtool (0.9.24.4)
- uninstall/remove flashtool (0.9.24.4)
- Download the previous release of flashtool (0.9.18.6) and install it click
- Install the drivers of your phone (directory of flashtool -> drivers)
- Launch flashtool -> Xperifirm -> Download the correct Firmware (again). Make sure that your home-directory of flashtool (default: C:\Users\xyz\.flashTool) is empty (at least no .ftf file may exist)
- Let flashtool create the .ftf File
- Flash the .ftf
At least this worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, you could try to use Sonys official developer Xperia Flashtool ("Emma"). This application saved me once or twice already from severe situations.
BUT WARNING: I'm not entirely sure anymore, but I think it erases your entire internal storage (incl. pictures, music, documents, some appdata, etc)
So if you can still get into TWRP, make a full backup of your personal data (with adb or simply drag'n'drop or whatever you like).
Usage is very simple and self-explanatory: Download -> install -> connect Phone -> install Firmware (downloads it automatically)
PS: I don't know why you're experiencing a bootloop and what ROM you're using, but this little idea came to my mind what you could try:
Wipe dalvik/cache and flash your boot.img again with fastboot
I used this little trick several times with success, but only with Custom ROMs (Ressurrection Remix, Lineage, Carbon). So I can't tell anything about Stock-ROMs.
I hope I could help you

Thank you so much for that answer. I spent hours trying to find a solution, but using an older version of the software would never have occurred to me. Thank you so much for that answer.

我的Z5P Dual E6883 閃光成 E6853之後無法復原 終於在0.9.18.6得到解決的方法 無法表達如此感謝
I can confirm that it works by using the older version of FlashTool, with an Xperia ZR :good: I also disabled the "verification" part as this posed some problems with reading from the device. I was able to install two different types of .ftf files (one at a time), and then reinstall recovery and LineageOS. My original problem was a bootloop, only showing the TWRP or Sony splash screen beforing screen going black again and rebooting.

Thank Youuu !!!! You made my day . I was stuck here for around an year . It never occurred to me to try an older release of flashtool. :good::good:
LOL! Newer is not always better haha. I just ran into this issue while trying to flash my Xperia Z2 back to stock. It was showing "Unknown" and complaining with "The bundle does not match the connected device" then refusing to flash. I thought it had to do with the LineageOS kernel it was running at the time, but no, flashing a stock-based kernel didn't fix that either.
Thanks for saving me from a headache!
