Hey, i think i bricked my phone cause i accidently installed cdma kernel on gsm phone (doom kernel) it keeps turning on and shutting down every 5 sec so i can't get in in to fastboot please help ;(
use flashtool to flash a stock ftf
-- To help you out with what shaun said, you dont need fastboot to flash a ROM and a ROM will overwrite your kernel, for this instead of holding search for fastboot, plug in your phone holding the back button for recovery, LED should glow green, then you can use Flashtool to install the ROM for your own phone and you'll be all set.

Hello,
i installed MIUI 2.2.17 and it's great.
But Miui hasnt got the feature to reboot into the Bootloader.
So, is there are option to boot into bootloader without fastboot?
On my Desire HD i can press Volume down and start the phone, so it will instantly boot into bootloader.
But with my Xperia Play this doesnt work.
Please help me, i dont know how to flash another rom now
Flash another kernel, perhaps Doomkernel, and your CWM Recovery should be there again.

bootloader?
fastboot - search
flashmode - back
recovery - vol down/up or back.
to flash new rom stock ftf etc. u need to boot in to flashmode with the back button while usb is connected (dont turn phone on just press and hold back then plug usb in.)
If you want access to Fastboot, just plug the previously switched off phone to a USB port while holding Search.
Hi Xda users,
I was having old cm9 flashed about 4 months ago on my phone (r800i), and today I wanted to install new CM release and new kernel. I simply flash new CM9 kernel using flashtool fastboot mode like always, flashtool flashing was complete successfully, and after that I cant turn on my phone. No led , no fastboot mode, no flashmode, just 1 vibrate after pressing power button.
What can I do next ? any steps to do next please (

OK NVM after battery remove I was able to enter flash mode ana reflash phone
UPDATE: I was able to get into fastboot and flashmode. I am trying to flash back ftf file but it is stuck at 0%
When I hold the power button the phone will vibrate every 3 seconds (almost like a pulse).
I had a locked (and non-unlockable bootloader) so I was using this CWM for locked bootloaders. I made a back up and preceded with flashing rom. No my phone will not turn on, not even the backlight (I do however get the red notification light when it is charging).

becareful with CWM in my experiance CWM are not yet fully compatible with our xzl
your phone can still go to fastboot mode and flash mode
to go to fastboot plug usb cable and press vol up indication the light will be blue
and goto flash mode plug usb cable and press vol down indication random color light and then gone
try flash the ftf file by entring flash mode and use flashtool to flash i think it can help you,
you can find the ftf file on development section
hope it help

its more helpful if you show us your flashtool log,
and make sure to exclude the simlock.ta file in files selection when choosing ftf package
Was able to fix it using Sony Update Service. Didn't work the 1st time but when I tried it a second time it did. Apparently the battery wasn't charging.
brick

I have installed CyanogenMod 11 custom rom to my Xperia Arc S. After flashing boot.img through flashtool, device got shutdown. Till now everything was fine. But after this the tutorial said to start the phone and after the phone vibrates, start pressing the volume down button. I did the same. But after vibration, phone is not showing anything. It shows dim light on screen but its not showing either the logo nor its starting. The LED light on side turns to purple but nothing happens after that. I did this with every button but its not starting. Pls halp me out....
Thanks...

Tell more about this. How did you do it, what happened, what buttons did you press etc etc.
Yes. I have installed kernel for it via flashtool. Initially after doing this it was not going to recovery mode and also it was not getting connected to flashtool. But now it is getting connected to flashtool in fastboot mode. So tried to flashing with 10.2 version, it showing finished but again the same problem. Its not going to recovery mod.
as in, HOW did you flash the kernel exactly. Dont just say you used flashtool, how did you use it? What combination did you use to get into fastboot? Any errors in flashtool? How did you boot into recovery (I.e. which keys did you press) and does the LX kernel logo even appear on boot?

First check does that kernel has built in recovery...If nothing works,to get your phobe to work flash stock .ftf file with flashtool.
Do you have unlocked bootloader?
And try one more thing,when you turn on the phone start pressing volume down (-).)!

I think i have the same problem as OP.
I decided to try out LegacyXperia CM11 and installed it yesterday. It went well, but it is still kinda buggy so i decided to go back to besttt's Slim Bean. I copied rom files on SD card and went to flash kernel (darkanzuEOL). I flashed it through Flashtool like every other time and it went without errors so i proceeded to boot into recovery so i can flash the rom. This is where everything stopped working normally. After i power on the phone and press voldown to enter cwm it just gets stuck on cwm loading screen. If i dont try to get into recovery it just bootloops. I tried several kernels i have on my HDD and always the same result.
I'm downloading stock img to flash and see if that will help. will let you know what happens.
EDIT:
Stock img worked, now i'm back on slim. Only other thing i changed ( which i think is the cause) is i used original sony usb cabel instead of my Nexus 7's i used originaly
Hello, today I flashed Dstriker Rom and wanted to used rashr to flash an other kernel and accidentally I flashed the TWRP Recovery for the Marchmallow Roms. The result was a non booting phone.

What can I do??????????

edit: please operator delete this threat. I finally managed it by any way to get it done via fastboot and flash kernel again.
