Phone bricked , stuck in bootloop - Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I have this phone (european dual sim version) and tried to update it via Newflasher. Now the phone doesnt start anymore, it is stuck in bootloop, just says sony and then it says that my phone is corrupt and it will not boot. I dont have enough battery to repair it via Companion. Is there any way to avoid going to the Sony Service?
I should mention that I tried to flash firmware 58.0.A.22.21 Europe Customized EEA. What should I flash to get it to start? Any idea is welcome.
Thank you.

Try launching your phone into fastboot (plug in while holding volume up, wait for blue light)
Once in fastboot, try setting your active partition to partition a with the command below:
fastboot --set-active=a
The restart your phone and see if it loads.

Thank you for being patient, unfortunately the device seems mega fu..ed. I dont know what could have happened sooo important that messed it up like this. I used the correct file,I followed the instructions... It goes to fastboot and it is recongnized by the PC, but the command doesnt work, it gives the response from my previous reply.. It seems that I am doomed to go to the service and that is it. Thank you very much man!

If your fastboot is not working properly then I agree. But I've never seen a fastboot get corrupted. Can you run any fastboot commands at all?

For your information, I have been dealing with a bootloop the last few days. I have now just tried a new USB cable with a new USB port (not the official Sony cable) and have fixed my issues. Perhaps you could give that a try as well.

I used the "fastboot devices" command and it worked, it showed me serial number of the phone. So it seems to be connected. But it doesnt want to change the boot partition. .... As for the cable, I first used a very old usb to usb c cable. Then I used one from my iqos charger. Because my laptop doesnt have a usb C port. So you really think the cable could f..k up things while flashing?? Should I try and find another one in the house maybe and try again?

Your ADB might be out of date and not have the A/B partition fastboot commands. Try updating through instructions here:
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
I never thought a USB cable would be the issue either, but I tried a new USB port and quality cable and suddenly everything works fine.
Also confirm you're using newflasher to flash the correct firmware for your model. When I flashed the XQ-AS72 firmware on my XQ-AS52 I experienced bootloops like what you're experiencing.
If you still have issues, you can boot to recovery with these instructions and select "power off". You should be able to charge your phone to 80% to use the xperia companion app. https://www.mobilereset99.com/hard-reset-sony-xperia-1-ii/

Give your phone a charge and give the Xperia companion app a try.
If you use the included charger and cable, it will charge faster than it drains even if you leave it in bootloop. But you can also try powering down using recovery options.
Let me know if that works.

The issues is that I cannot enter the Recovery and see the options. So you are sayng that even if when I plug it in it keeps saying my phone is corrupt, it still charges?

It should charge. You should be able to hold volume down on boot (green light top corner, black screen will happen) and try an xperia companion app restore by following the repair options (select "My device is not detected by computer". It should be charging as it restores from your computer as well.

[q] twrp 2.5.0.0

Hello,
I followed Hasoon's all-in-one root toolkit and flashed the included TWRP 2.5.0.0 onto my AT&T HTC One X. Now I cannot do anything, whatever I do, it tells me "Unable to mount /cache". Could you please help me? I can't mount the sdcard to the computer either, so I am sort of stuck.
Thanks!

I was able to wipe it. However, it still gave all these same unable to mount /cache error messages. The data is gone though.
When I connect the mounted device to the computer it still doesn't recognize it.

Does the PC not recognize that anything is connected or does it detect that its plugged in but can't find the driver?
What rom is currently installed on the phone?

Currently I think it recognizes the phone as a media device (or similar, I forgot the name), not as a disk drive. I am on a Mac, and I have Android File Transfer installed, which then tells me that the device cannot be opened. On Windows it couldn't be opened either although it talked about a driver issue. I currently only have a Mac, but from Monday I could work on a Windows machine again.
The ROM currently being installed is the original AT&T provided ROM.
Thanks so much!

What version? IS it already installed on your phone? I'm trying to find out if you require MTP drivers or not. Latest version of sense/stock Roms require MTP driver to access the SD card.
In any case I wouldn't suggest using any version of TWRP above 2.3.3.1
So, I would download twrp 2.3.3.1 and check the md5
then fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
select recovery from bootloader then try to mount sdcard with twrp.

I see, this all sounds like I need to wait for a windows machine.
I am not sure what ROM version, unfortunately. I bought the phone in December from AT&T, and it all looks like it asks for MTP drivers. I will try this with a Windows machine and then get back to this post - thank you so very much for your help.

Yes, you would need mtp drivers for the latest software version. They are included with the latest HTC sync.

Alright, I have tried this with the latest HTC Sync manager: the MTP Drivers however won't install. I have tried with the One X+ of my Dad (which is also brand new, so probably requires the newest version also), and it installs fine and appears as a media device in the explorer. Mine however does not do anything, and driver installation says it fails to install the driver. I have tried manually installing the drivers, however, it seems to have to do with the phone because when I disconnect it suddenly Windows 7 is able to install those drivers, and as mentioned before it also works with a functional phone.
Next week I will be back at work and I have a Windows 8 machine there. I don't have high hopes that it works there, but since there seems to be an MTP driver issue with Win7, maybe there's a chance.
Is there anything else I could do?
Thanks!
PS: don't use your vacation time to root your phone...haha.

OK, so on Windows 8 I am able to install the driver, and it does not fail like in Win7, but I still can't access the mounted storage. The message of the device is:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
The process hosting the driver for this device has terminated.​
Is there anything else I can do, or should I rather get a new phone?

Are you rebooting to bootloader to do the fastboot commands? In bootloader it should say Fastboot in red. Then after a couple seconds that should change to Fastboot USB. I don't think fastboot needs the specific drivers to be on the PC like mounting the SD card requires.

Well, when I turn on the phone, all I get is the TWRP interface. Mounting from there doesn't do anything. I am not in fact in bootloader. Maybe I am doing something wrong here!!

You are definitely doing something wrong. fastboot commands only work within bootloader/fastboot and adb commands only work while the rom is loaded up or in sideload mode in TWRP. It's assumed you know this prior to rooting.

Turn off the phone. Then hold volume down and briefly press the power button. Don't let go of volume down until it gets to the boot loader screen. Wait for fast bot USB to display. Then you can try exad's fast boot commands.

It should change to FASTBOOT USB if you are plugged into a computer. If you connected to the computer after you got to bootloader mode, you might have to press volume up or down to get it to switch to FASTBOOT USB Maybe this is the root of your problem. Have you tried multiple USB cables? Is there any crud in the micro-USB port on your phone? It's a little odd that the micro-USB port would break in a manner that charging would still work but not data connections, but I'm starting to wonder if that isn't the case.

I have a phone that will not turn on and I can not do anything. Is there a way to completely reset the phone using only the pc from 0? Sorry for my bad english, i'm italian.

Have you tried accessing bootloader like this? Take out battery, sim card and memory card and then put battery only in, plug in usb 2 to computer and the micro usb to phone and then you should see the orange light come on and this will indicate that the phone is connected then open adb through android sdk and type adb reboot bootloader and tell me if it works

I'm sorry, I can not understand well the first three prerequisites unbrick project:
1) I downloaded the live CD of Linux that put at the end and it is an ISO file. I have to mount with Daemon Tools? And as for the automount disabled and without unity, are parameters that I decide to install?
2) Packages for devices that are at the end are divided into 32-bit and 64-bit. Are the bits of my operating system or the phone (if they have)?
excuse my ignorance.
3) What is RUU and where do I find the right one for my device?

In the manual it says to download the latest RUU for my device, then the second ones I've found I should be the third, 2 October 2012. But if there were others on that page are not there?
There are so many, I do not know where to go get:

yes you run the exe from pc
connect the device to pc in fastboot mode
edit: but you will be able to do that when you will gain access to the bootloader again

There is a slight problem, the first command that I write on the terminal,. / Brickdetect.sh, I should recognize the device bricked. Instead it is not found. How so? When I attack my phone to pc, QHSUSB_DLOAD appears in the device list, but marks it as not specified.

Thanks bro i will try tomorrow and will let you know
If u still face the problem toss a new battery and check it ....or grab a old Nokia battery or which ever battery fits positive and negative connection in the phone. If the phone turns on its your BATTERY...ORIGINAL G PRO 2 BATTERY COSTS AROUND 180$ DO NOT BUY CHINESE KNOCK OFF......INFORMATION IS MEDICINE :good:

Can't unlock bootloader after upgrade

Hi
My phone is international NXT-L29
I was on Ephemeral B180 rom but i decided to upgrade it to get emui 4.1
I flashed back stock b180 rom, and after I flashed stock b321 rom
ROM works great but i would like to get root and twrp back again, but everytime I try to go through fastboot i get this screen on picture.
I logged into my dc unlocker again and followed the procedures (manufacture mode, unlocking,...) and dc unloccker tool informs that the phone was unlocked...but no, when I do adb reboot bootloader i still get the same message on the picture.
I saw other suggestions here on XDA, i confirm oem unlock is activated on developer options...i made factory reset and then "vol+- power" (with or without phone connected to PC) but i dont't get any option to unlock bootloader. I always arrive to a menu saying that the phone is looking for upgrade and tries until 5% is reached... (if I keep waiting it does not fisplat error message, only waits and waits and after a while it reboots normally (i don't have any dload folder either on phone or sd card)
Any suggestion to solve this is highly appreciated
many thanks
Try to get ur unlock code from huawei website maybe this can help.
Did you run the bootloader unlock command with your unlock code again?

I retrived my code from DC Unlocker (it has an option to read bootload code) but the problem is thar when I get de Fastboot&Rescue Mode the phone does not react to any command i can type on PC
Can I replace the stock boot.img that comes inside the UPDATE.APP file byone decrypted boot image of same rom?
If that would be possible then flashing this "modified" UPDATE.APP would solve the problem?
Many Thanks

I don't see any kedacom usb device folder...
Check if the device isnfound by the computer. Restart in fastboot mode then on your computer type "fastboot devices" you should get a device and its serial. If you're not getting anything its a driver issue.

I did not try the command fastboot devices, but as per the new picture attached when I run adb devices the computer finds my phone
the problem is, then, when next i run 'adb reboot bootloader'...the device goes into fastboot&rescue mode and the device is not recognized by computer anymore

Open control panel when your phone is in this state (it's fastboot mode) and you should see the folder I talked about.
It seems drivers issue, i hate windows 10
Try different usb port,and try to remove the drivers and install them again.
Make sure no usb device connected to any other ports.

You were probably right because i recently changed PC and aeverytime w10 upgrades I pray...
Have the the same problem, but didn't find the solution. Try different laptops and different cables. Windows can't recognise my Mate 8 L29 after B320 update cause of the wrong descriptor.

Very hard brick OnePlus 8t

I unbricked my OP8t following this guide and decided that just a working phone is not enough for me (yes i so... stubborn)
I flash rom via twrp and got errors: "can't find system_root partition" and "can't find vendor partition".
i flash new twrp via sideload and reboot phone(DON'T DO IT!)
Now my pc can't see phone, but phone can charging.
I don't think anyone can help me... but it's worth a try

Hi, i can't start Qualcomm EDL mode, device does not connect to pc
so it doesn't work for me
Hi,
disconnect and turn off the phone. Start the msm tool and begin the process. Then Push VOL+and VOL- while you connect the phone to the PC. The upload process must be started. (I needed to use USB2 interface to work)
best regards,

I use cable from OP nord 2, usb 2.0 port
I dont know, but it was charging for about ten hours on original 65wt charge
I've found that at times getting MSM to work can be difficult. But I've always been able to, somehow, get it working.
There have also been occasions when I've had to reinstall the Qualcomm driver.
I don't have any specific suggestions for your, but I just wanted to share the notes I've made/collected regarding the tool (attached). They might give you some ideas of things to try.
Note: my PC is running Windows 11 and I'm using the original OP cable.
