More details, please What soft were you running, what kernel were you flashing.
Notice that CWM is only for ICS!

Try flashing the stock rom, it worked for me!!!!!!
the same thing hapenned to me too

Okay so I seem to have soft bricked my Xperia J too
Only this time I can't seem to get into Flash mode or Recovery mode!
Holding/Pressing Vol+ doesn't bring up the blue LED and the phone doesn't vibrate at all.
Likewise for Vol+. Nothing happens and the phone remains stuck on the Sony boot logo.
Any idea what I could do? (USB isn't recognised on PC either so I can't connect that way.)
Edit: Okay scratch that, randomly button mashing Volume DOWN seemed to work for me. Only took about 50 or so reboots

Sony`s PC Companion can repair Boot Up problems after CWM install faild
Just watch this video on youtube and follow exactly the description on your PC Companion. Just search for this video on youtube "How to fix a (soft) bricked Sony Xperia Play( any Xperia )EASY METHOD, when stuck on the Sony logo"
Wanted to post the Link but it`s not allowed before posted at last ten contributions - sorry for that (XDA rules!)
This will fix all Xperia Models - it works so easy and pretty fast (about 20 minutes) and after that you have a phone just like brand new from the dealer with the latest software rolled out for your device in your country - sweet

Pls help me S1 fastboot prblm

First law you won't install a stock firmware on a rooted devices. We know that sony patches latest kernel.
Second law see first law and so on.
Hope you'll figure how to reflash the custom rom it should work. Hope you still have it.
Good luck bro

Look Men_in_black007 is 100% correct all you need is a firmware file of latest version
http://www.carbontesla.com/2014/07/ftf-download-11-3-2-33-firmware-update-xperia-e-c1505c1504-generic-uk/
Make sure you have phone charged atleast 50 %
now remove the battery of your phone, reinsert it after 5 sec.
Connect the usb chord to pc now HOLD THE VOLUME UP BUTTON IN PHONE AND THEN CONNECT TO PC.
a green LED will turn up.
In flashtool it will show device connected in flashmode
click on thunder icon.
select flashmode
select were is your ftf file,
keep all option as it is then click flash / ok.
after 2 min. you will see a popup connect your device in flashmode and flashing process will start.
after the flash is complete now you have stock android 4.1.1 jellybean
hit the thanks button if i helped !!!

I hard bricked my phone plZz help meee

I have an Sony xperia e3 d2212 running stock recovery n ROM 4.4.2 also stock
I rooted my phone using kingoroot.apk n switched to SuperSU using supersume pro.apk
I have no PC access so I still have a locked boot loader
Today I found a link to an app named EZ unlock.apk which said it could unlock my boot loader I installed hit unlocks asked me if I wanted to unlock my boot loader I hit yes n a msg saying boot loader unlocked piped up in seconds
Den I took cwm for my phone from XDA n tried updating my recovery using mobile unclemtk tools n wen I selected the recovery.IMG it got switched off n hasn't turned on yet led notification is also not working
I tried connecting to a PC it don't recognize my device
My mistake was the cwm was for Sony xperi e3 d2212 running stock 4.4.4
I flashd it on my 4.4.2 that must have caused the bricking plZz help me it isn't even booting in fastboot
Since my phone got bricks I'm pretty sure that app must have unlocks my boot loader other wise it would have booted normally as I tried flashing the same cwm b4 using the same tool
PlZz help me
Thanks in advance
Hope ugot a clear picture of my problem

First, everyone who wants to help you would appreciate some appropriate use of the English language. You don't have to be fluent or anything, at least just write properly.
Secondly, I would recommend trying first the Sony PC Companion to restore everything, if it doesn't work, try using the flashtool with XperiFirm to download the appropriate software and flash it. Here is guide on using XperiFirm

pc isnt recognising

Bricked Z5 - keeps restarting while flash

Hey there
i have some serious problem right here:
I somehow got stuck in a Sony bootloop after trying to flash a ZIP file with twrp. After that I tried desperately to wipe everything possible, so I somehow deleted the OS. However, Flashtool does still recognize the device and I can still enter twrp. Sadly, when I try to flash a stock rom via Flashtool the Z5 keeps restarting on is own thus interrupting the flashing. What is the problem? IM really desperate right now
Help pls
