Are you talking about a P500 or variant? If so, can you get the device in to fastboot mode?

Sorry, I'm not familiar with that device variant. Ok. I see it's a Korean model P500. Power off device. Here are some key combinations
Power + Volume Up + Home = Recovery ( hold all buttons until recovery appears )
Power + Volume Down + Back = Emergency Mode
Power + Volume Down + Home = Fastboot Mode
If number 1 works, wipe cache and dalvik cache again and then reboot. PC should detect device when connected.
If number 3 works, download Android Flash Recovery from my signature and use it to flash a recovery to the device. Complete instructions are in the download package.
Other than that, I dunno what to say.

Download Android Flash Recovery from my signature. It has known good drivers for LG Android devices in the USB folder. If you had drivers installed before this problem, then new drivers won't fix it either.

Phone will not switch on ...
Tried unlocking the boootloader following instructions from the Sony website,
after "sucessfully" unlocking the bootloader in flashboot mode the phone got stuck in a boot loop.
Eventually stopped the phone boot looping by pressing all the buttons at the same time, have now found out it is the two volume buttons and the power button, then the phone did not switch on at all, tried connecting and holding volume button etc, to USB but all that comes up in device manager is "unknown device" and the flash tool does not recognise it in any mode, found out that holding the power button down for five minutes reboots the phone. Then flashed with above firmware and ended up in another bootloop, holding the up volume and power button makes the phone vibrate once then three times, let go after one and then you can get into flashmode, this time I flashed the latest firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762296 and it worked.

D2305_18.0.A.1.30_Global Generic by Sai Arkar←This FTF file is most important
Help please?
Hi man, I need your help urgently... I tried flashing kernel image to my Xperia M2 D2303, but I got impatient as recovery mode wasn't coming on and I did in in fastboot mode instead. Now it's stuck on boot loop and the screen only flashes. I can't get it to connect to my computer either, my computer just doesn't recognize it anymore. So, I can't flash anything on to it to recover it now either, and I tried putting files into my SD card to restore from but those files won't show when I try to download from zip using Clockwork Mod. What should I do?
Update
I tried to flash a custom rom into it, but even though I remember turning USB debugging on, it seems it's off. And plus, the drivers link you gave don't include the Xperia m2 drivers.
It would not connect to Flash modehttp://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/2/9/8/5/4/7/8/NewPicture002.jpg?key=xzdzp41r6BQtbbijWRPtQA&ts=1414307092

Hi Guys,
So the story is that I was updating my Xperia Z3 (details below) from TWRP 2.8.6 to 'twrp-3.0.2-0-yuga' using the instructions androidnewsbox.com/2016/02/08/how-to-install-and-update-to-twrp-3-0-0 and after flashing the new TWRP the phone can no longer enter recovery mode and I get no other booting/loading screens.
I had 100% battery when I started the process.
It does still do the little vibrate thing when I hold down the power button but nothing happens after that.
When I plug it into the PC the LED flashes red, then green then goes off.
Reading the instructions twrp.me/devices/sonyxperiaz.html I did use the 'install' function not the 'recovery' function. Is that likely to be the mistake I made? If so is there any way to recover?
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Model: D6653
Previous TWRP: 2.8.6
Android version: 5.0.2
Software version: 23.1.A.0.726
Use flashtool to reflash a new system image (ftf). You're using stock so probably your kernel doesn't support FOTA-Kernel partition flashing.
Great to hear back from someone.
Unfortunately I don't think that I can just flash a new ftf using flashtool as I cant get into fastboot mode.
I have been working through the following online tutorial
engineerthink.com/blog/2015/11/how-to-unbrick-hard-bricked-android-phone/
I have installed the USB drivers on my PC from here
androidmtk.com/download-sony-xperia-usb-driver
And i can get the ftf file from here (mine is 1288-6090)
xpericheck.com/device/D6653
Unfortunately I am unable to put the phone into fastboot mode by holding down the power and down buttons. Nothing happens.
The tutorial above also tells me "If phone not going to Fastboot mode than connect it to PC by USB. Hold Volume Up and Power button until you get company logo or backlight."
This also does nothing and I get no backlight or company logo.
FYI if it helps about a year ago I rooted my phone using a tutorial very similar to this
oneandroid.gs/root-xperia-z3/
I will keep working on the problem and post any updates as they come up.

First hard shut down your phone by using combo, after that, download the ftf for your phone (1288-6090 is the customization, what you need is an ftf that its compatible with your phone model, download flash tools, install the drivers that come with it, and using xperifirm (Included in flashtools) you download the firmware) After you have all settled up, proceed to flash your phone, select firmware and then it'll ask you to connect your phone in flash mode not fastboot mode, you can do that by pressing vol up + power (press them and while pressing them connect the usb to the pc). Then the flashing process will start. You can find many tutorials around here in xda. Do not use external tutorials, go find stuff here. It's way more reliable as many are made just for your phone.
Hi and thanks again.
This gives me plenty to learn about and go forward with thanks heaps.
I will give this process a go later today but I have a few questions if you dont mind.

I am not familiar with any combo and without visual ques from the screen or LED I cant tell if it is off. I have a button that says 'off' near the sim card is that sufficient?

Yes that one, If you press it enough (about 5-10 secs) the phone will shutdown and It wont try to restart. This is what you need first.
h3llcat said:

No, only when connecting the phone to start flashing the system software, you will see a green light in the notification led that will then shut off and flashing process will start.

This is a great almost-up-to-date guide http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/03/1...peria-lollipop-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool/
XperiFirm is included in flashtools now so you don't have to download it, but to get your firmware you have to do the same steps but opening xperifirm from inside flashtool.
You can download flashtool here http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
Seems to be a success!
Thanks heaps for all your great assistance.
Did you get the Z3 D6653 going again?
Hi H3llcat,
Jumping through some hoops with the D6653 myself... did you get it to boot up? Not sure how far you went with it, if still an issue charge it back up and let's try a couple of things; I realize it'll just be sitting there all dumb and dark like, but do it anyway. So let us know.

Have you got issues yourself?
Hi guys,
So today i tried to install TWRP on my Galaxy S8+ with odin
after reboot it asked for somekind of reset so i did but TWRP wasnt installed.
I tried it again but before it rebooted i checked if TWRP got installed and still no TWRP
so i flashed it again without booting in to the phone.
Phone reboots.. well actually NOT.
its not booting up and keeps showing me the Samsung Galaxy S8+ text with powered by Android below.
So now i tried to flash the stock firmware again but odin keeps saying FAIL (DeviceInfo).
i only can get into download mode, recovery mode buttons doesnt work.
also tried it with Smartswitch & Kies but after downloading the firmware it wont recognize my phone.
Please someone help? i really dont know what to do anymore...
You can download Samsung Smart Switch and choose the emergency software recovery option. You'll loose everything on the phone but it sounds
as if you're already there.
It will ask for your phone serial and exact model no., then it will download the latest release and install.
Usually will work from the screen your on, but if a prob., boot into download mode.

What device model do you have?
I assume its a 955F or FD?
Please dont tell me you have a U version.
sent from my Note FE, S8 plus, S7 edge or S6
1. Download earlier firmware AQF7
2. Hold power, volume down and bixby button for download mode
3. Open Odin on your PC
4. Add the AQF7 BL and only this
5. Hit start and straight after this hold the 3 buttons in again power, volume down and bixby (this should fail at first and bring you straight back into download mode)
6. Now back on Odin spam the start button this time (this should flash the BL and have you sorted again)

This - you probably have the newer AQG5 bootloader, which TWRP doesn't support yet.
So follow the instructions above, flash back to the previous bootloader, the you'll be able to flash TWRP ok.

I had the same issue once before. What the fail device info. I think I fixed it by using the most recent update (I think). And messing around with csc files. All this was done half assed in desperation. Then went back to the unlocked firmware and stopped messing with it. Yes Smart switch didn't do crap. Use updato.com to obtain your firmwares

After rooting my smartphone, I turned it off and on again, and it booted up infinitely. I was embarrassed and touched this and that, then went to wipe->advanced wipe menu and accidentally changed the system file. After that, my smartphone doesn't work at all. I'm posting this because I wanted to know how to turn on this smartphone, so I hope someone who knows about this part will reply.
(OEM seems to have turned off as the OS disappeared when I judged it.)
So can you boot into anything? Try all button combinations possible.
Or it is just black screen without a single text no matter how ?

Now all of a sudden, a lightning bolt icon appears on the black screen, which appears to be charging.
Do not unplug your phone. Press and hold the Power key and the Volume down key simultaneously for more than 7 seconds. As soon as the screen goes black hold down Volume Down + Volume Up for a few moments.

The power button and the volume bottom button were pressed at the same time and pressed for 7 seconds or more. The smartphone was turned off. Since I used TWRP in this state, I have been routed using the powerward button and the power button to move the powerward button and the power button for a long time to move the BACKUP entry, and the system image is displayed, but the system is displayed as 0 MB. And if you try to reboot, the NO OS Installed error will be opened and you want to install the TWRP app, and Failed to Mount / System (No Such Devices) Error appears. Now this is the symptoms of my smartphone.

First, I asked you to go to download mode. How do I have since that? (OEM seems to be forcibly turned off when the OS itself is gone. I turned on the routing before.)
You are in twrp now, but shows system as 0mb?

No. With OEM locked, even if your phone is locked as tight as bill gates's wallet, you can still boot into download mode. However You can only flash stock ROM in that case. This is the definition of OEM lock: you can flash, but cannot flash anything except stock rom.
You must not be meaning OEM lock.

Although I am looking for information on the Internet, it seems that a program called Odin is necessary for Samsung phones. The internet says that you can upload the genuine firmware, but is there any other way to upload this genuine firmware other than using Odin? And what should I do if my smartphone is not recognized?

1. Then request phone's Stock ROM directly from Samsung.
2. As you were already told flashing a phone's Stock ROM doesn't require phone's bootloader is unlocked.
You reported you have flashed TWRP successfully: this means your phone's bootloader got successfully unlocked.
Take note that TWRP is used to flash Custom ROMs.
Stock rom: www.samfw.com
For odin and usb drivers just search

Odin doesn't seem to recognize my phone. Since the USB driver is a Samsung phone, I downloaded and installed the Samsung integrated USB driver. Yet it is not recognized. Download mode is now in the state.
