So i was unlocking my bootloader, but i didnt downgrade down to 6.0(was at 7.1.1)cause the xperia companion just didnt want to install. then unlocked the bootloader and immediately installed the TWRP, which worked fine. Unfortunely, after selecting Reboot from TWRP, now it is stuck at SONY white screen. Cannot power it off and go to recovery or download mode. I know I know im a noob, but can anyone help? Do i need to wait until the battery dies to enter the download mode and flash a new rom?
Flashing a ROM on a dead battery will not work...
Searching this forum will!

Hi
I am in a pretty messed up situation, since am noob i cant post directly to the development forum.
1. I had installed stock ICS .54 using PC companion
2. I installed CWM recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948455
3. Installed Vision ROM v4
Everything was working fine till this point, after that I made a blunder. I wanted to try GB and downloaded GB-ROCKS rom from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2139840
4. I booted into CWM recovery and flashed the GB-ROCKS rom (yea, i did not go back to stock GB kernel :-/ )
5. Booted GB-ROCKS but it was showing problems so I again went to CWM recovery mode and flashed Vision ROM v4 again
6. Now, I got bootloop, its stuck at XPERIA logo
How to get out of this?
I tried the following
1. I have downloaded the stock ICS ftf and Flashtool (Bin4ry), tried going to flashmode by following steps mentioned in http://xperiadev.wordpress.com/guidelines-xperia/flashtool-fastboot/
The problem is, phone logins always to CWM recovery mode, and from my PC flashing is stuck at the pop-up window saying "unplug USB, power off, hold volume down key and connect USB". No progress.
Please help me fix this
was able to boot into flash mode and flash the stock kernel as given from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032226
I flashed ICS 6.1.1.B.1.10 ftf
but now, power up SONY logo comes up and then restarts.
CWM recovery is present even now, I tried installing from zip 'Vision ROM' again but did not help, it is still stuck at 'SONY' logo reboot
Any idea why this is happening?

The recovery you're booting to is not a custom recovery ,anyway I'll giude to installing I'll give some useful links.
First if all you need to unlock your bootloader go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/xperia-l-how-to-flash-tool-unlocking-t2337955
You may run in a bootloop (the phone stuck at bootanimation)
Just flash the stock ftf via flashtool .
Now go here and take the first method , it will guide how to install CM12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63769485&postcount=2
Remember that the first may take sometime so don't pullout the batterybattery.
Good luck:highfive:

Hi, I'm new to XDA. Sorry if I did something wrong already. But I have a problem, I tried installing a new boot animation to my moto e 1st gen (bootloader was unlocked, it was rooted too). Now whenever I turn the phone on, The WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED image shows up, but there is no boot animation. I cannot access anything, I can only go into recovery mode and CWM. I have tried factory reset using Recovery Mode (No success, just does WARNING boot loop again ) I have also tried factory reseting through CWM, till no success. I am giving up, I just recently bought this phone. NAY help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Can you tell us what firmware was your phone running? Also what recovery do you have on your phone?
If stock, you may try flashing stock firmware via fastboot.

Thanks for responding so quickly! But I fixed the problem a few minutes after posting this . But there is a new problem, I downgraded from Android 5.0.2 to Android 4.4.2. After doing this the phone worked perfectly. Then a few minutes later it installed a system update for 4.4.4 and now the phone is hard bricked. I can't access recovery mode, CWM, or even turn the phone on now. Before charging the phone, if I held the power button for a long time, the LED lit up and turned back off. Now there is no response from the phone at all no matter what I do.
Also, I had ClockWorkMod and stock recovery on my phone (Is stock recovery the one that shows up when you hold power+volume down? If so I had both CWM and stock) But now I can't access either recovery modes. If it at least went into stock recovery, I'd flash stock firmware, root it, install CWM, and flash a Lollipop zip. (I like Lollipop, I don't know why there are so many people that hate Lollipop )
Any help would be much appreciated. All i need now is a way to flash files without going into recovery mode on phone.
Hello,
I apologise for any mistakes as this is my first time posting here.
I recently changed the screen on my brothers OnePlus One. The installation went really smoothly and the phone displayed on startup.:good:
But for some reason now when ever it it starts up you get a 1+ logo and then it has the android man with the red triangle. It then puts you into recovery . My brother has never tried custom roms on his opo, so he has the stock recovery. I try to install some zips using the ADB sideload method but it gets about 80% done and then says that the signature verification failed even on roms downloaded from the official site. I think the phone would work if I could get TWRP installed and install the rom through there, but I can't get into fastboot mode. My brother has never been in fastboot so I don't know if you had to enable it in the OS first or something like that. If I press reboot bootloader in advance settings in the recovery it just restarts the phone back into recovery. I am not sure whether to try some type of brick fix method however it isn't hard bricked because it turns on and in soft bricked you have to use fastboot for every method that I've seen.
Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks!

Trying to flash custom ROM or just rooting on stock?
Press and hold volume up button it will take you to twrp you should have nandroid bsckup if u dont have then no worry try following flash twrp if you dont have then press power button it will show you same screen(device cant be trusted)from there choose reboot then reboot systen it will again show you same screen but immediately press power button it will boot. ifit dont try different combination sometimes it dont accept input(as i learnedfrom my experiance) if nothing works then i think wiping factory reset is only option and even reset dont work then reflash whole system using dload method
after battery got dischareged.
i charged it only 20%
phone turns on.
then i tried to install DLOAD method Update ---------------------------- it restarts and stuck again -------------------- then i let it discharged completely.
same thing happen if i try to install stock recovery or custom recovery
Also i cant boot into recovery

Boot into fastboot and check the status of your bootloader.
Or you can flash full stock via dload and then unlock bootloader, install twrpamd root.
I have given a guide in my signature for rooting on 6X.

I know the steps very well.
#######################
here is info
1. Bootloader is Unlocked.
2. NO info about Custom/stock recovery.
3. DLOAD APP method is not working.
I have Tried to unbrick phone with toolkit.
Now I can only boot into ERECOVERY (but it is getting error while trying to restore system)
