Bootloader went from yes to no - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Some weird thing happened on my phone
When I bought it the bootloader could be unlocked and it was unlocked for some time
But when I flashed the stock fw via flashtool the state went from yes to no
Even when I restored the TA backp which I made before I unlocked the bootloader did not change the state from no to yes
Did anyone encounter something like this?

Have you tried flashing custom kernel ?
If custom kernel boots, it is just a bug

[ROM][4.4.x][OFFICIAL & NIGHTLIES][MOTO_MSM8960] MoKee OpenSource Project

I was on the 9.30 OTA and installed the KK ota via @SamuriHL method.... I rooted and unlocked the bootloader.
Next I installed CWM for KK and tried installing Mokee @Ryuinferno. Now I am in a bootloop. What could have gone wrong?

Nope didnt work. Should I have downgraded to JB and done this? I am not sure about that though as the ROM is KK

The ROM is KK but it was not designed for the latest boot loader version, I think. The only custom rom that will work with the most recent OTA boot loader are dhacker's test builds
You have to either downgrade the boot loader, use one of the test builds or revert to stock system.

i did something very similiar. from what i understand (which isnt muchLOL). but Dhacker29 told me that once you upgrade you have to use the new kitkat bootloader. and the new bootloader only works with roms that have upgraded kernels 3.5 or higher(i think) so right at this momoent there are next to no roms but you can either use stock and modify it yourself or you can give Dhackers test build which isnt bad it has a few bugs but all the hardware works so far and my RAZR HD is playing games it couldnt touch before at all. here give this a try( oh turn off touch sounds to get rid of that anoying popping/cracking sound) i started this thread after having the same issues LMAO in it u will find links to the test rom . hope this helps

[Q] Flash Customised Firmware on Carrier Device

I'm still confused about this. Can we do what the title says? Been searching it for a while and I can't find any answers because probably no one asked this. Thanks
Yes you can. Without root you can flash FTF,s. With root & recovery you can flash sony stock based roms. With unlocked bootloader you can flash custom kernels

Ah thanks. Always thought there would be a conflict when flashing a generic firmware on a carrier phone.

Help updating my rooted device.

This is what is installed on my device: TWRP 3.0.2-3 / android 6.01 (I THINK it's a bit modified rom) / SM-G930FD
I rooted asap I bought it few years ago, I want to update to the latest Nougat version 7.0.0 (I think the 7.1.2 is not officially released, right?)
All I need is stock (slightly modified is also ok) + root and don't mind formatting it to start from the scratch.
What are my options and/or what should I do? Thanks for reading!
Flash the latest stock ROM with Odin, then root.

Thanks for the reply.
Can't the TWRP do the same thing? If I flash using the Odin, will I lose the TWRP?
You need to use Odin to flash a stock ROM which will cause you to lose root and twrp.

Could you tell me which ones should I use? What do you think about the smartswtich?

I recommend matching the ROM to the original carrier.

It's an international unlocked version, does it have a "carrier"? How do I find it? I'm located in Japan and imported this phone.
You can install the Samsung Phone Info app from the Play Store to find out the csc and match that to the ROM.

Question Flashing ROM with Lock Bootloader

Hi I’m complete newbie , earlier I experience bootloop then I saw a blog that if I wipe data using stock recovery the problem will be solve but its not. So is there a chance that I can flash stock ROM with lock bootloader? Thanks in advance if someone will answer.
Yes it's called stock rom so you can flash with locked bootloader
But if is a custom rom you can't

How can I flash stock rom with lock bootloader sir ? what tool should I use ? TIA sir
Xiaomi flash tool
You can't flash anything with locked bootloader, not even stock rom.
if your bootloader is locked you can't do anything. After you setup a phone you must turn on usb debugging for future purposes like your problem right now.
