I wiped data/cache and formatted /system to install the CM 12 nightly. When I tried flashing it, it said it was for all the D66xx models, but wouldn't install because my device is "leo." I then tried to restart the phone, but missed the chance to enter recovery. Now the phone is stuck in the Sony screen and I can't turn the phone off at all. Holding the power button for over 30 seconds is not working. I am just letting the phone sit until the battery dies to try entering recovery again, but that might take a very long time. What can I do? Do you have any suggestions?
EDIT: All I needed to do was to hold power + vol up for 2 seconds and the phone turned off.
And just an FYI, there is a hard reset button inside where the sim tray is

Press the off button?
Hold power + volume up until it vibrate, then do your button combo to get into flashmode.
Hello,
I am currently using Xperia Z3 D6603 running on MM 6.0.1 .
I tried to install twrp recovery through adb and it showed that the result was ok.
But as soon as I turn on the phone there is no vibration or LED light up, it goes straight to Sony logo and then boots up.
I tried holding the volume down button while pressing the power button.
The result is a black screen. The black screen comes and goes away then come backs again.
USB Debugging was on while flashing recovery.
What can or should I do now????
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?
