Did you install the cm kernel first? If you just flashed a nightly without the kernel, im pretty sure you would be where you are now.

boot.img is the kernel.
Last time I flashed cm (12) I fastboot flashed the cm boot.img, then fastboot flashed the xz recovery.img, rebooted to xz recovery then flashed the nightly.

Problem with Fastboot

Hey I've been trying to flash kernel via fastboot mode in flash tool but I'm facing a strange problem... Flashtool drivers have been installed properly so don't tell me to install drivers again... Flashmode works perfectly, I can flash ftf files but in fastboot it shows the error as shown in the pictures.... If anyone knows what could be the cause behind this, do let me know.... Thanks.

What is the version of android you have in D2203? 4.4.2 or 4.4.4?
If you can not send by FlashTool then you try to use adb.
Go to the folder FlashTool \ x10flasher_lib.
Copy the img file to that folder and then open a command window and you execute the following command: fastboot flash boot xxxxxxxxx.img

Now I'm stuck on 'waiting for device' BTW, I've installed this new build of AOSP and I'm just stuck on the boot animation... There's no recovery installed that's why I wanted to install this recovery from the AOSP zip package.

I also flash the latest version available for my D2203 (
AOSP_L_MR1_150504_flamingo) and the same happened to me.
After the Sony logo appears, the screen turns black and does nothing!
It's a bug not yet solved xD

Hey I was able to solve the problem.... I just restarted the computer... Then it detected fastboot mode too... And I flashed the latest AOSP build but it's still unstable... Camera isn't there and dull display. Rest all fine, wifi, network, bluetooth, wake up from lockscreen.
PS. in order to flash the AOSP rom, you need the new open device bootloader.... flash that first and then flash the AOSP rom and it'll boot up

Flash MIUI 6 version instead of 7.
Then try CM again.
But flashing MIUI should be done via Fastboot, so be sure to get the right version.

Do you guys flash the miui 6 room using fFASTBOOT? Refer this link for the tutorial LINK
Fastboot rom is different from recovery rom because it has all the necessary files to return your device to complete stock rom as it includes recovery img, modem files etc. Try to flash the 6.6.10.0 or 6.6.5.0. Good luck
k
okay i will try.....Thank you
looping problem
i was burning my midnights oil for haplessely flashing Cm12.1.... nothing was happening...
later found out that i was not using miui dev ROM. then downloaded both 5.1 as well as 6.6...
still stuck at languages section... GAPPS was not the correct one. downloaded arm64 5.1 stock... voila.... running smooth since yesterday....
thanks @dh.harald & @omerjerk
now ready to try CM13
When you want a clean install, use the fastboot one. It seems to be a non-system partition problem, thus try flashing fastboot rom and see its outcome
I am trying to flash cm12 with miui 7 but it gone into bootloop then i restore into stock by using twrp recovery it comes to normal. Then i tried flashing resurrection rom it hangs at language point then it again it goes into bootloop. Plz tell me how to flash ROM..??

Use MIUI 6.6.10.0 or 6.6.5.0 and then flash any desired ROM on top of it. Else you may face problems and bootloops.
Yea its working thx
First tried installing ROM, went to boot loop, since there is no 6.6 ver I installed 6.11 dev version. later I tried to install all the ROMs(nameless, AICP, CM13, Bean, Resurr..) None worked. Now back to miui 7. Damm slow & pissed..

XT1039 bootloop after flashing CM13

Hi,
XT1039: bootloader unlocked, rooted, stock rom 4.4.4
TO: nightly
Flashed 4118 bootloader, as detailed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto...tions-t2996087
It was successful.
Followed https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_peregrine
unlocked bootloader
installed cm-recovery from here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=peregrine
tried to flash cm, got a bootloader error,
followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59520890&postcount=233
Now using bootloader 411A
flashed cm-13.0-20160121-NIGHTLY-peregrine.zip
from here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=peregrine
now the phone is stuck at the boot screen.
So I flashed twrp recovery, successful and reflashed cm-13.0-20160121-NIGHTLY-peregrine.zip
I tried several different guides that included all sorts of cache deletion and format orders but the result is still the same
(I am not using an sdcard but only the internal storage.)
After rebooting, the phone is stuck on the Cyanogenmod boot icon (blinking cat face) since past half hour.
Please guide how to debug/recover.
fastboot and recovery are working
Thanks,
[edit:]
The cm-13.0-20160121-NIGHTLY-peregrine.zip was transferred by mounting the internal storage on the PC and copying it manually. Just in case this matters

Thanks for the reply, but the goal is to get cyanogenmod on my phone. How does the stock rom help me with that??
Just for testing, I have installed the stock rom to see if it works and it does. I now have a Motorola Android 5.1 on my phone. But thats not what I wanted.
Anyone having any idea how to make cyanogenmod work?

Just to restoring a kernel on it...after restoring one, go to TWRP, make your wipes and flash again your CM

WOW Thank you very much, its working
Maybe you can also explain to my why installing the custom rom mattered, since I wiped everything before installing cm again, I would assume there is nothing of the stock rom left on the device.

Not really able to explain...sometimes sh*t happens...
But this procedure works almost every time.
Surely due to your bootloader error after your first flash with CM recovery...something was broken...
Most important, now, it's working...Enjoy
I install cm but google play is not working and sallular data also not working.. Plz any one help me please..

ok, that other post made it seem like you were trying to flash that in Odin LoL anyways so, when you do all that and then reboot, it just goes black or does it bootloop?

yes, it just bootloop
Don't use no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip (you probably don't need it) .
Start all over. Flash the stock ROM with Odin, then flash TWRP, and then flash Magisk (via TWRP).
