[Q] Xperia M: symlinks failed

[Q] Xperia M: symlinks failed - Sony Xperia M

I've been reading up on this problem for 2 days no without any solution. So you guys are my last hope.
I have a Xperia m (single) and installed the unofficial CyanogenMod 11 (beta 2) from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584956. Everything was working perfectly for more than a month, but 2 days ago my phone just switched off. When I switched it on, it was stuck on the Sony logo during boot. I left it for more than 5min, but nothing happened.
So I decided to upgrade to beta 3. Through CWM (6.0.4.7) I tried to upgrade it, but I got an error:
Code:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
symlink: some symlinks failed
E:Error in /storage/sdcard1/cm-11-20140217-UNOFFICIAL-c1905.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I tried installing the previous version (which worked perfectly a month ago), but I got the same error. I tried a clean installation (wiping everything, clearing cache, etc), but with the same error.
I tried everything that I found on the net. Using different ROMS, constantly unplugging the battery, trying to upgrade CWM (I think 6.0.4.7 is the newest version for Xperia M), but nothing works.
Any suggestions from the pros?

I've tried that multiple times, with beta 2 and beta 3, but the problem persists.

Here is a weird one that I didn't notice before:
Right after I flash boot.img and install the zip from recovery, the update installs and before it gives an error, the phone just restarts. When I try to install it again after the automatic restart, I get the symlink error.
So the problem may not even be the symlinks, but the fact that the phone restarts during the first installation right after flashing boot.img.

@goocreations Your phone booting or not?

Well, I can boot into recovery (CWM). But when I try to boot into my previously installed cyanogenmod, the boot process is stuck at the Sony logo. So the Sony logo just stays there for ever and never actually boots into android.

Try to flash your phone.

Flash to the original stock firmware? I'm busy downloading that and I'll let you know if that succeeds.

Yes! Flash stock firmware, of succeeds and then flash boot.img from CM11 beta 3,then install CM11 b3.

Flashing the stock firmware also give problems. I'm using Flashtool and this is the output:

look for another xperia m or ask on xda
in terminal try dumping the system. img dd if=/ dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by.name/system of=/ sdcard/system.img then use that in update.zip using package extract to system partition or fastboot flash system.img command

You may have faulty NAND memory. Check the thread about encryption problems.

[Q] HELP: Xperia M dual - "Type password to decrypt storage"

Dear Sirs
I am new to this forum and this is my first post.
I purchased sony Speria M Dual in Dec 2013.
In the month of march 2014, Phone developed a bug. One morning, when i switched on the phone after charging, phone is showing following message " Type password to decrypt storage". However, i had not set any password.
Then i took this phone to service center in Mumbai. After 15-20 days, they informed me that phone's mother board is locked and they have to change the motherboard to correct this error. And they also informed that changing mother board does not fall under WARRANTY. So they refused to solve the problem.
Phone is not rooted, Bootloader is locked. Phone is running on stock firmware...i think 4.1.2
I have tried flashing the phone thru PC companion ...but it says "update unsuccessful".
I have tried flashtool also...but again not successful.
Phone is not entering into Recovery mode.
I request you to help in resolving this problem
Regards
Kapil

Common problems disappear when flashing hh use flashtool.
Can you give me log in flashtool?
Sory for my engelish

That's nonsense! They're just basically going after the money. You don't have to replace the motherboard, that's rubbish. All you have to do is to download Flashtool by Androxyde, make sure that you have installed the proper drivers, download any FTF from the Android Development section that suits you, then flash it. If you need a more detailed explanation, then just reply...

Yes, please do post your log fron flashtool. what sony has said is a load of bullcrap, the warranty should cover it, your phone is faulty. Just for my own curiosity, do you have the adb drivers for your phone installed? And also which drivers did you install from the drivers folder in flashtool?

Plz look into it and let me know why i am not able to flash

Okay, from the log it shows it can't flash the kernel from the ftf. Download a 4.2.2 ftf (the one for your device, 4.1.2 is for the single SIM) or a 4.3 ftf for the dual SIM and try flashing them. Post the logs, preferably in text format rather than picture format, if you get more errors.

Ok, i think i know what you might be doing wrong. Just tell me, (1) do you first press flash and wait for it to tell you to connect your phone.(2) Or do you connect your phone in flashmode and then press flash.
Just tell me 1 or 2

Download the firmware what you are currently running (15.2.A.1.12) and then press the lightning bolt in flashtool. Then click flash mode and then select the 15.2.A.1.12 firmware. Click the checkbox next to kernel and then click flash.
It appears as though your device is going into a read only state once it tries to flash the kernel.

PS: As i try to launch it, after few seconds with normal SONY screen a wild bug appears ( photo included in post ) .
If someone has a solution please respond me as fast as you can I appreciate that a lot !

It seems like there's a problem with the kernel...

I think you have broken NAND memory, see thread about encryption problems.

I did a Data Format on TWRP of my phone running Archidroid (First version of the Lollipop release) and then Factory reset it. After that, TWRP didn't boot properly at all! This is what I get when trying to reflash stock ROM

Any help is most appreciated and I am in quite a desperate situation atm :C Thx.
More info: It won't reach the bootanimation, It's stuck at the SONY logo only.
Device can no longer do offline charging. When doing so, a green and then red flash of LED light comes on. What's happening?! D:
Flashmode is working with the LED turning on expectedly
I really hope this doesn't mean a bricked phone...
EDIT: Okay I found out the problem, I was using Flashtool that was not compatible with the Xperia M... Problem solved.

hello mate, i have the exact problem. Can you please give me the link to the correct/compatible version of the Flashtool? Thanks in advance.

Sony Xperia S Bootloop Issue

I have recently rooted my Sony Xperia S without any trouble. And also restarted the phone without any trouble. But after I installed a Unicode font using another app and given the super user permission to font folder. And after that I have restarted the phone and stuck in bootloop. I can see Sony logo and then Xperia logo and restarting repeatedly. I have some files to recover. But the device is not recognized by ADB.
So please help me to solve this issue.

Did You also flashed a recovery? If yes, You could try flashing a ROM. If not, flash stock FTF using Flashtool.

It seems You have not selected the correct ftf. You have selected the ftf to relock bootloader. Did You save ftf file to C:\Flashool\firmwares ?

No i've ftf in C:\Users\abc\.flashTool\firmwares location. i tried many versions of stock rom, from C:\flashtool\firmwares location i got same error.

You have the ftf in correct location, but doesn't flashtool ask You to select ftf before flashing? Else try this ftf, it worked fine for many users.

still the same problem... phone is in recovery mode and can't open it, i think.. maybe there is no cmw recovery instaled right now.

Recovery wouldn't matter now. Can You give Me the link of ftf You are trying to use? If You can download, I would recommend using ftf from here.

That is the one i used while trying to flash. In flashtool i have no option to wipe data when im trying to flash instead of this i can wipe userdata and app_log only... maybe something is wrong with my version of flashtool...
