I Need Help Fixing Bootloop - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

So, I think I really screwed up. After I finally got my bootloader unlocked, (after some trouble) I tried using Kingroot with no luck. And me being the eager beaver that I am, I attempted installing TWRP in Flashtool with the "Select system to Flash" option. Now I'm stuck with a big fat "SONY" on a white background.
Whenever I tried installing TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery TWRP-3.0.2-4-kagura" I'm stuck with < waiting for device >. That's why I tried flashing through Flashtool.
I'm on F8331.
Any help would be much appreciated.
EDIT: I got TWRP working, and I'm able to boot into it. Now I'm guessing all I have to do is install SuperSU, and maybe flash a custom ROM?

Hi, are you tried with Flashtool with an Marshmallow firmware?, when I bricked my phone (F8332) the only solution was this.

First of all reflash you firmware using flashtool, reflash the twrp recovery that corresponds to your firmware then flash the supported androplus kernel for your firmware. After all the steps above access the recovery and try to flashing the latest supersu available. Your very welcome.

I ended up just flashing XplayZtation.

Can't Access TWRP Recovery

Hi guys, I flashed the latest factory image, then flashed the latest TWRP but can access it 1 out of 10 tries.. What am I doing wrong? Is it a faulty replacement phone? Never had this issue with my other nexus 5 (same recovery file but lollipop and not marshmallow) and now I have this problem.. Tried to riflashato the factory image 5 times, boot to recovery without installing but nothing changed.. Thanks in advance!
If you just just flashed TWRP, then booted into Android, then reboot into recovery.. Android will overwrite TWRP with the stock recovery.

This is not really a fix, since to use Flashify one needs to be rooted already.
What I did to work around this was reflash LMY48M. After reflashing that, fastboot correctly boots/flashes twrp.
I've read that the issue arises when trying to boot and/or flash twrp with MRA56K installed, AND the device is connected to USB.
Ok, i got some of problems here, i tryied to root my Nexus 5 with other Android 6 version, it was the first one launched after development version. Now i have MRA58K version.
Problem 1 : I have no stock recovery, i first rooted original version of Marshmallow with CWM and i soft bricked, so no backup, no factory images. Installed MRA58K and there is no stock recovery, thanks god i can use bootloader. I can install TWRP, but i want to install the old recovery, Tell me how to do it.
Problem 2: Actual version of Marshmallow ask me to install a patch, but when installing i got stuck in TWRP, it cant install it (yes, android was rooted, but i installed twrp before root, and the update were before it.)
Thanks.
You can flash a stock ROM using the flash-all file in a command prompt. This will install stock ROM with stock recovery. Make sure the phone has an unlocked bootloader and you should be fine.
Official OTA updates cannot be installed with a custom recovery.
I tryied 3 times to install OS with flash-all. All the problems start after i installed CWM and try to root the phone, but after that, i used a stock rom image that was different build than actually one.
I`m not sure yet who`s fault is.
Any ideas?
I don't recommend using CWM, only TWRP.
After you flash TWRP always boot into it, and since you're flashing a custom recovery I'm going to assume you don't care about OTA's, swipe to allow system to be mounted. TWRP will automatically patch the system to survive android trying to overwrite it. Reboot into TWRP a second time to be safe. TWRP should stick from now on until you flash over it or restore stock system partition.
Yes, now i have TWRP as recovery, but i want to replace it with stock recovery.
Problem is, when i upload stock recovery and try to boot in recovery mode, i got the green dead android with red triangle.
But after TWRP uploading and booting in recovery mode, TWRP is there..
I really don`t know what`s wrong.
Flash stock recovery, select recovery from the fastboot menu, hold the power button and press volume up button.

Need stock recovery from B119

Hi my phone came with 4.4.2 V100R001C00B119 and i tried some things and ended up with bricked device.
The only thing that is working is TWRP recovery, i tried lots of stuff even flashing full room over fastboot img by img but no luck.
Currently phone can go into fastboot and there i can flash TWRP, and thats it. Bootloader is unlocked. It just shows huawei logo and rebots and its like that for last 3h.
So from what i discovered i need to flash recovery that was originaly there when i took the phone to play with, but its just that it is impossibile to find this firmware out there.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Device won't boot, tried rayglobe, tried fastboot flash, no firmware downloads availa

I have an NXT-L29 (432). I've really loved this phone besides the headaches of modding. I've been doing this for years, am well acquainted with fastboot and ADB. I promised I've searched and read as much as I can, I keep getting dead ends.
I'll try to recount what I've done but I've tried so many things I'm probably a bit mixed up. Was using b180 and and Ephemeral Rom for months, decided to go to b321 for black pyramid. Trouble began. Tried dload method (button method wouldn't work,used dialer), it rebooted back to the custom rom. Went to recovery, still TWRP. Wiped, it booted into stock EMUI. Was still rooted, with kangtools somehow. Tried using supersu unroot, failed. Flashed stock recovery from bootloader hoping to update to nougat (gave up on b321), since then it won't boot and I can only get into bootloader and eRecovery. Tried downloading latest version and recovery, getting package fails. Tried reflashing TWRP in bootloader, shows success but brings me back to Erecovery. Tried rayglobe knife unbrick with extracted images from what I believe is my stock firmware. It completes, I press any key to reboot and get stuck on the 'your device is unlocked and can't be trusted' screen. I let it sit there overnight. Tried relocking bootloader but it can't because of root type. Tried manually flashing cust, boot, system, recovery, which is successful, yet I still get stuck at the 'your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted'. Tried using HRK tool but ADB isn't authorized? USB debugging was allowed before I got locked out. I'm stuck, don't know what else to do. I've thought to download another stock firmware but none of the links in the stock thread work anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
One thing that is really racking my brain, why does Erecovery remain after fastboot flashing twrp?
Somehow got back into twrp, flashed 7.0 files and now running nougat. Cannot get back to twrp for the life of me and it doesn't always boot but it's progress. This phone is crazy.
Hello.
I unbricked my phone few. Weeks ago. Now it's fully fonctionnal. But I still can't boot to TWRP. The only manner I found, it's using srktool to reboot in TWRP... The official manner start erecovery too.
hi friend,have you problem....

XZ Premium Dual Bricked Forever? PLEASE HELP!!

Got my new XZP yesterday, unlocked it fine. But Im a dumbass and WIPED THE WHOLE THING so there's No OS. No matter how many times I try to Wipe it and Flash TWRP it Won't boot into TWRP. It won't even give me a Sony Logo. It only gives me the "Your device is unlocked - Boot in 5 seconds " message and then Endlessly will do that. I can't boot into recovery. I need to know if there's a way to remedy this I'm desperate as hell cause I rooted my Xperia X just fine. I even used Newflasher to flash a new updated Stock ROM to it. Seemed to work fine, still wouldn't give me a Sony Logo or Boot into recovery.
PLEASE HELP!!! Edit: I re flashed just a system .sin and that allowed me to get back into TWRP. I still have no clue why flashing a ROM didn't work. But I have TWRP and an SD Card.

that is very very interesting... did you try flashtool and flash older android version?
Can you boot into Fastboot and flash a valid rom via newflasher?
It could be possible, that in fastboot the screen is still dark

Messed my honor 6x. Help me recover.

Update: I tried flashing TWRP by Askuccio through fastboot and I successfully did. Then I flashed PixyOS v2.4 and flashed it successfully then flashed Gapps and stock recovery then followed rest of the required steps and everything went smooth and right. Using PixyOs now. Great rom with great stability with Android P. ?
I was on Oreo on my 6x. I wanted to flash this pixyos rom on my Honor 6x. I unlocked the bootloader of my phone installed the Twrp successfully without any hassle. Now it was time to flash PixyOs and unfortunately I did not do any backup of any sort. The PixyOs Package showed some error when I tried to clean flash it. And here we go my phone had No Os now. I searched a lot and found this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/update-bln-l22c675-emui-5-x-x-to-emui-8-t3819317
I gave it a try step by step thinking about that it would work but after successfully following all the mentioned steps and flashing everything I got this "System failed" error when the device was booting. In other words it didn't work eventually.
I tried the dload method with the same update zip from the thread linked above but it failed too.
I tried erecovery to restore my device but it gave me "Getting package info failed".
I don't know what to do now. Please help me with this and help me restore my phone.
I had the same issue
i made something like this a month ago
only one temporary solution worked is flashing EliteRom via twrp and i got the phone working again but still can't flash a stock rom.

Can you boot to fastboot. What did the PC say when you ran the script. Try to flash TWRP if EMUI 5 and then press and hold Volume Up and Power to boot into it. If it works, good. If not then again boot to bootloader and try to flash TWRP of EMUI 8. Again try to boot into it. If it works, good. Anyway, once you're in TWRP don't let your phone turn off. Plug it in charging. Now go-to wipe, and format data

I'd suggest you to try PixyOs (With Askuccio TWRP). It's a great and fluid ROM. Only downside is it doesn't have Stock Emui camera and I didn't even try flashing it because I read somewhere that it causes the device to get stuck in bootloop.
