Boot stuck at Running colors on the word "XPERIA" :( - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

I did the factory reset normally on via the setting menus. Then the phone restarted normally and stuck at at the XPERIA screen with changing colors for hours.
Did a force restart and the same thing happens. If I boot holding volume up and power at the first vibration it says 'Your device is corrupt. It can’t be trusted and may not work properly.' and boot into a screen with three dots (apparently a corrupted software).
Xperia Companion wouldn't help as it says "locked screen" when both power off and on.
I tried to fastboot via adb to factory reset again hoping things will get better. But the device is not detected despite installing the driver a million time.
I can't think of any other options. PLEASE HELP

[Q] LG V905 tablet - password problem

I just bought an LG V905 tablet used but there is a password on it.
I can't get it to do a factory reset.
I tried holding the volume button ( both up and down ) with the reset button.
when i use the up volume button i get a screen that says "entering lg mdp mode"
and "DO NOT POWER DOWN" downloading now..."
i left it over night like that and it still was at the same screen in the morning.
when i try it with the down volumne it get
"Starting fastboot usb download protocol" anf the LG logo and it sits there.
can anybody tell me how to reset this tablet ?
Thanks In Advance

I'm in the same boat.
I had a force close happen while installing a 3d wallpaper apk that rendered my touch screen insensitive to touch. This virtually bricks my device as I cannot unlock the screen during start up. Everything else works as I can hear notifications and watch it connect to my wifi network.
I've tried flashing stock images for the lg-909 (system.img, bootloader.bin, flashboot.img) and this did not work on my LG-905. It would get stuck in a continuous boot loop in the t-mobile animations.
My LG-905 is a Rogers device so the stock images are now obviously different than the T-Mobile's.
I need fresh images for the LG-905. If anyone has rooted their device using the instructions for the LG-909 they will have one of these back-up images available. I would ask someone help me out by making this available to me. Mine has been corrupted and is unusable.
Other than this, perhaps someone can help me restore my screen sensitivity by some other means as I have access to the file system using ADB, APX and sometimes fastboot (when it works).

[Q] Unmodified Z3 Won't Boot

I have not rooted or modded my Z3 (T-Mobile) in any way. Today I turn on the screen and get a bunch of android error pop-ups like "Google services not responding". I don't remember the exact message. So I try to reboot the phone. I see the initial Sony Xperia boot screen then the screen goes black. The phone will not boot. I can get into recovery but safe mode doesn't work. Factory reset didn't solve the issue either. I can not connect over USB (including in the Sony PC Companion).
I figure I have a busted device, but does anyone know of a solution?
Xperia phones do not come with am accesable recovery, so if you can enter recovery it must be modified in some way....
Also if you have a recovery, just restore a backup, it flash an update.zip

I bought it new and have not modified it. Holding Vol Down + Power goes to a very basic "System Recovery". The only options are Power Up, Safe Mode, Factory Reset and Power down. I took it to T-Mobile today and they were unable to get it to boot. Going to contact Sony now.

Thanks dude i'll read that for sure
Unfortunately i have no access to fastboot that's why even DC Phoenix cannot do anything...
fastboot ... conect phone to PC. If the phone its on or off dosend matter.
After conecting to PC hold volume - and power buton (first volume- !) .... and wait a while ... it may reboot severel times. befor enter fastboot.
After enter fastboot try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/honor-8-hard-bricket-how-to-restore-t3739551
I pray to access this damn fastboot mode dude but i've tried everything and i cannot get into it even when i disconnect/reconnect the battery
My opinion is that the phone tries to reboot in order to reset itself but smthg prevent it from rebooting correctly, a friend told me the boot is damaged/corrupted
Go to one of those high street repair shops. They fixed mine for 80 pounds.
The tech tried with his Huawei flashing box but he couldn't detect the phone...
Did your device got unbriked?
No i bought one with the screen broken and i swapped thé motherboards, but the other is still bricked

Pixel Stuck in Bootloop, ADB Unauthorized, Bootloader Unlocked

Hello, I recently came on a pixel phone to build and use lineageOS on. Upon rebuilding, I believe I performed adb sync wrong the device and damaged system. After that, my adb keys became unauthorized and I am unable to access the bootloader menu(I press power and volume, but phone boots into Bootloop). I tried the steps to get to bootloader menu, but the phone doesn't power completely off, and when I press the power button it gives me the launch screen saying press power to pause/continue boot, not allowing me to go into bootloader
My bootloop goes like this: Bootloader integrity screen(bootloader unlocked, cannot be verified) --> Google loading screen --> Android recovery. This shows 2 options with the message, "Can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device". The two options are to try again or data reset.
I press try again, and the same bootloop ensues, sometimes getting to lineage loading logo, but then back to the same recovery error regardless. If I press the buttons(power and vol up), to go into recovery, it just shows an android with a warning sign above it, giving a message saying "Error!" on the bottom. My adb on the computer shows as unauthorized, so I don't know how I can fix this. Google has said the warranty is expired and cannot do anything to help. Ideas to fix? Thanks for help in advance!
Use power and volume down (not up) to go into Fastboot mode. Then flash the stock images

I tried that, but whenever I press any button, the phone is never turning completely off unless it dies. Even after that, it goes to the screen showing the secure boot integrity(Press power to continue/stop boot)
How can I completely shut off the device and restart it? And if system is messed up, will that leave my bootloader intact(I'm assuming so as boot is a different partition?)

Does holding down the power button for 5-10 seconds turn it off? Or if you do that does it appear to turn off and then restart?
If that fails to turn it off, try just holding power and volume down for 5 seconds, and if the screen flashes (goes off and then on) let go of the power button but keep holding volume down and hopefully it goes into Fastboot.
That should work unless you have a dodgy power or volume button. The bootloader is completely separate to the boot partition, and the fact that it's doing anything at all suggests that it's still functioning.
Only other option I can think of is trying ADB commands when it's in recovery mode, e.g. adb reboot bootloader. However, if you have the stock recovery, that may not work.

Thank You!!! It didn't work in the bootloop, so I had to let the phone drain its battery and shut itself off, then I was able to enter the bootloader and reinstall lineage. Thanks so much!

Is ur bootloader unlocked? If so, use twrp to perform a full wipe and install from twrp as well. Of you can't access trwp, and are in a bootloop, do the same thing I did: let the phone lose all it's battery, so it's outta the loop, connect the phone to a charger, then hold power and volume down. This should get you into bootloader mode where you can then use fastboot to flash twrp.

Unable to boot, enter flash mode or enable USB debugging after 'succesful' flash

I use this forums a lot for info but in this case i can't find any leads of whee to go with this, so wondering if someone can chip in some ideas?
I flashed a ROM via flashtool but wasn't happy with it, so i thought i'd just go back to stock and so used flash tool AKA emma to flash one of the options given there.
First attempt to flash it said "flash failed" or something like that and had the "flashing failed, connect to computer" note in the phone when booting it. (I'm sort of making up the terms, not that much into the tech ). Anyway, i tried flashing the same FW again and this time it went through really quick being 'completed' in a few seconds.
Now when i try to boot it gets stuck in the 'Sony' logo. Can go into Fastboot but no Flash Mode (nothing happens using the vol down key), and USB debugging seems to be off now as well.
Emma only works in Flashmode so can't do anything with that. Flashtool doesn't offer anything useful in Fastboot and Xperia Companion recognises the phone when in Fastboot but asks that i unlock the screen and enter MTP...
Any help of where i can go with this?
Thanks
P.s. While keeping buttons pressed randomly it went once into flash mode, but trying to flash a ROM with flashtool it got stuck at "reding device data" and i haven't been able to enter the mode again. Is there an alternative key press combination that i stumbled on by chance? I think i just kept vol up and power held for a while and let go at a random number of phone vibrations
Just tried: Flashed twrp via fastboot and then rebooted into recovery. Same thing. It still opens to Sony splash screen and stays there
Ok, i'm kind of talking to myself here, but mild success and something that might help someone.
Managed to get back in flash mode. Don't know if it's a fluke, unique to this phone, or how it's actually meant to work, but the sequence is:
From the freezed up splash screen, and the USB connected, press and keep pressed power+vol up (hard restart/shutdown)
You get a single vibration, if you let go here it restarts. Keep pressing
You get a triple vibration, if you let go here it shuts down. Keep pressing
You get a single vibration, if you let go here it starts in fastboot. Keep pressing
You get a second single vibration, if you let go here it starts in flash mode.
Possibly a fluke but don't want to have to try again!
Anyway, i managed to flash the last working firmware and it's all good, yet this is the unwanted one. So issue is i still need to downgrade the phone to 7.1.1
