Hi all!
I have 2 same phones, after microphones in my first Kagura died, I've bought another used XZ.
But I don't use stock ROMs and decided to flash Pie ROM.
Downgraded to 6.0, backed up TA partition, Flashed back 8.0.0. After that I've successfully unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP, last oem for Pie, and tried to flash my normal set of zip's - aosp, magisk ang gapps (these work normal on my first XZ).
But this combination didn't boot, asked a password and rebooted.
I've tried make full twrp-backup of my first XZ and restore it on the second.
The first try - I've restored everything but TA. Thought that they are not interchangeable, don't know. Tried to boot system - it was stuck on SONY logo.
Rebooted to TWRP and restored TA (thought that was needed to boot) - but after that I'm stuck only in flash mode, no even fastboot.
And if I try to flash any FTF, I get an error "Error processing *.sin".
Please, help me
As I told in telegram use Sony's Emma tool to fix it. It will detect your phone and attempt flash stock frimware.

Hi all,
Recently I updated my Nexus 5 from Lollipop to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (MMB29Q) - latest build.
everything stock works fine but, once I flash a customer recovery, in my case TWRP it stops working...I get either a startup loop or TWRP gets erased by stock recovery.
I tried various steps ...
flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 - rebooted to boot loader was able to get into TWRP but, once I reboot system, everything works but TWRP is gone/erased and replaced by stock recovery?
Flash TWRP 2.8.7.1, then flash latest TWRP 3.0, reboot to boot loader and can get into TWRP but once i reboot into system, I am stuck on the initial boot loop.
I have to start from scratch of flashing system and boot etc to get past the loop and it still replaces TWRP with stock recovery.
I can always get into Fastboot but when I go to recovery it seems its being replaced by stock recovery.
anyone experiencing this issue? thanks for your help.
I guess I am doing something stupid but, not sure what...and thanks for your help
If you give more detail on the steps you are taking it will be easier for someone to help. Also, have you tried doing a factory reset when it bootloops?
thanks for the response..here are the details..
I had Lollipop with TWRP 2.8.7.1
yesterday, I downloaded latest build from android site...extracted all files....booted into bootloader and flashed all files..
rebooted - Marshmallow works perfectly...offcourse it not rooted yet or its locedback due to this flash
Scenario:1
So downloaded TWRP 2.8.7.1 and flashed it as recovery, no errors nothing...i rebooted to bootloader and went to recovery to confirm TWRP is there
I rebooted the system - TWRP gives option to root which I said yes so its rooted. I reboot system, this goes into bootloop - I wait for say 5-10 min in this loop mode and I see that adb can recognize the device but nothing else....its stuck in loop
when I force shut down by holding power button for few sec - and go back bootloader/recovery - TWRP is still there
***note*** I did factory wipe in TWRP but that did not fix above condition.
Scenario2:
exact same steps but after I flashed twrp2.8.7.1, I rebooted bootloader and flashed twrp 3.0 as well confirmed twrp 3.0 is flashed and rebooted system - phone start normally no issues - when I restart to bootloader - no TWRP exists, its replaced by stock recovery
Scenario 2, I tried couple of other ways and still the same thing happens - twrp 3.0 get erased.
not sure what I am doing wrong but TWRP doesn't stick
since this is my active device - i flash system.img and boot.img to get the phone to working condition
thanks for your help

That did the trick.....thank you very much. I was using older version of supersu thinking it was latest.....I downloaded V2.65 and installed it and that fixed all my troubles..

Hi, help would really be appreciated (I'm extremely new to all of this)
I have a Sony Xperia X Compact. I unlocked my bootloader, then I wanted to get TWRP.
I flashed TWRP, and failed to get into recovery mode first time, the phone loaded as normal without issues. Once I got into TWRP it failed to create a backup, so I thought maybe it's to do with my memory space being too low - I rebooted via TWRP to take a look. This is where the bootloop began - I can't get past 'Sony'.
I have been searching for ages and trying to find the fix, and I've noticed in TWRP it tells me I have no OS. It appears I have wiped my phone entirely?
I can detect my phone with 'fastboot devices' but not 'adb devices'
Where should I go from now? Do i attempt to flash a ROM, or is there more to it? I have attempted to flash a ROM but it says it can't load the .img file.
Thank you
So I got a oneplus 6 bootloader unlocked, rooted, with twrp 3.2.3
Yesterday I accidently upgraded phone to android p (official update). And I was like no I want to go back to my previous android (official oxygen) so I tried to flash my old back up with twrp, but it was gone. So I tried to flash again twrp. again with the command flashboot boot twrp.img, but it didn’t work. My phone goes straight into QUALCOMM Crash Dump. when i only try to flash the twrp image. I googled for a few hours, tried an other image named boot_op6_ob3_twrp.img but also didn’t work. Can someone give me some tips to get twrp back again so I can flash my back up >.<! sorry for my bad English and thank you in advance!

To go back you will have to format. Search this part of the forum for Qualcomm crash dump and would will find a few threads with instructions,that is how a forum works. Imjustsaying
P.s also by reading slot you will also find out that restoring backups really doesn't work that great for this device yet....
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/tool-msmdownloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892 you can make the phone work again with this tool. It will reset EVERYTHING, even lock your bootloader, just in case something else got bad I would use it .

Hi All,
I've been trying to install TWRP, Root etc on my XZP since yesterday. I've done something wrong at some point, and now my phone will not boot at all.
I had no troubles unlocking bootloader, installing TWRP etc initially. I then tried to install a custom rom from these forums and that's where things spiraled downwards for me.
As part of that procedure, I needed to flash the latest sony firmware first. That went fine.
However, now TWRP is not able to decrypt storage, so I'm not able to flash anything else. Perhaps this is because I booted into the new sony firmware and forgot change the pattern/fingerprint to pin/fingerprint.
So I'm not able to unlock the storage via TWRP by entering a password.
I tried to reflash the same firmware again using newflasher. But the phone won't boot at all. It turns off immediately after the Unlocked bootloader warning. It's not going into a boot loop. Just turns off.
I then tried to flash the TWRP recovery image using adb fastboot command, and the flash seemed to execute properly, but I still can not boot into recovery.
Is it possible the main storage is still encrypted, so nothing can flash to it? Bricked? If so, how do I proceed?
I read something about reformatting partitions? But I'm not able to get into TWRP recovery menu to do this.
*EDIT: I reflashed trwp recovery image, and am not able to boot into recovery. I still can not unlock (unencrypt) the main storage though.
*2nd EDIT: I followed the instructions here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/how-to-fix-unable-to-mount-data-t3830897
I was then able to flash the stock ROM back onto my device, and I'm able to boot my phone up. I'll look at installing a custom ROM at a later date.

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
