hi XMD users.
I unlocked my XMD C2005 succesfully but when i booted it i got stucked on bootanimation. I tried to flash the 4.3 kernel with CWM and able to go to recovery but still unable to boot into system..
I performed it twice but i have no idea what is the reason behind. my phone is unlockable.
Thanks.
Try flashing the kernel from the stock FTF through Flashtool. If you don't have one, try requesting from other users.

i already flashed the stock CWM kernel for xperia m dual but its no good.. i can put it bring it back to 4.3 but my problem is i can't root it..i always stucked in boot animation everytime i unlocked my device..
any idea why is this happening?
What do you mean, stock CWM? What I meant was to flash the stock kernel, the one that came with your device.

i can do that, but my problem is i can't boot my device after unlocking. i already unlocked my bootloader.. any suggestion?
I just want to ask and know, how long will it takes to boot up after unlocking 4.3 or flashing a 4.3 image with CWM? Coz' when I first unlocked the device it's been more than 20mins and the device still on boot animation..
Any tips? Thanks...
No. All you have to do is to boot into flash mode.
It doesn't normally boot too long. It's just like rebooting the device.
IDK I had some problems too with bootloader unlocking and I found the fix: don't unlock with Sony site, but with flashtool.
AFAIR I relocked my bootloader and then I unlocked it with flashtool and it worked. It's thag button near the flash button.
If you unlocked your bootloader already , relock with TA partition (If you Made).Or just relock it with the latest version of flashtool. And boot into flash mode (Volume down btn press and hold) and flash a .ftf firmware.That's it ----> CHEERS .. if you still facing problems please report in the same thread with my name i.e @XDASenior

Just use flashtool to flash the rom again man, i think u should flash the stock rom firs
If it's ok, then flash your custom rom
I am running the official rom no problem it's not allowing me to flash any custom roms in the recovery mod. I cam reboot to recovery either by x-part or holding the menu key while it start.:crying:

You unlock your boot loader with the test point, not root. So please be clear about what you've actually done.

If you want to use a custom ROM then 9 times out of 10 you'll need to use a specific kernel, usually one that comes with CWM.
I know exactly how to flash custom rom, I am coming from MT4G the problem after you flash the rom the phone dosn't boot in recovery it just stay at sony logo, even when i try to boot in fastboot mod dosn't allow me only booting in recovery.

Try this....
1. Flash ur stock ICS firmware 4.1.B.431 ... 2. Don't let it upgrade to the latest firmware (in Canada I got N update that changed my firmware to 4.1.**.587 or something like that)
3. Then flash ur phone with the rootable firmware of xperia generic world version...
4. Flash the kernels for that firmware .. even the stock ICS would be OK..
5. Root the phone using Doomlords method of rooting... Its the best...!
6. At last reboot ur phone ..n violaaa...
U have a completely rooted phone ..!
P.s. make sure u see the log while u root ur phone . It may say rooted successly even if it had some errors... so make sure other are no errors..!
I had the same problem when I decided to unlock boot loader n root it for the first time ... so no worries my friend ...try this .. n it will work for sure.. !

I think you can't flash custom rom from flash tool it must be flashed from you sd card because it is a zip file. I tried to flash recovery mode you supplied the link with no go.
So u did root and installed cwm by the link I gave right ?
N it showed that .. installation complete.. ?
N now ..the problem is ..
that u cannot enter recovery mode
To flash a custom ROM ?
Am I right ?

Try flash ftf file via flash tool or Sony software.
Your explanation is very confusing. Please give detail on what have you did i.e. what version of OS you have before flashing existenz rom, do your boot loader locked or unlocked? etc...
Bootloader unlock my phone.
I installed the file Xperia ZL (C6502)_10.1.1.A.1.253_Generic US 1270-7577 R7A.TFT & Xperia ZL C6502_10.3.1.A.2.67_Generic US 1270-7584.tft

Your mistake is probably flashing the cyanogen kernel.

Do not install ROM eXistenZ for xperia ZL
Ok..first try locked your bootloader...
SEUS will not restore your phone if you Unlocked bootloader....
And if restoring the phone can't solve your problem, it was because you have experiencing a faulty battery...
You need to send to Sony service center for repair...
If you have warranty, first locked your bootloader then restore your phone with SEUS...

Hi Sparrow, I was trying to get my Z1C back onto a stock ROM and I managed to that with the Sony PC Companion. Then I tried to flash KK (from http://www.mediafire.com/download/g1mahcm5y8cax2q/D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic+UK-nosystem.ftf) with flashtool but now my Z1C is stuck in a boot loop. I tried to use the Sony PC Companion to get it back to stock but now it says "There is no software available for your phone/tablet."
Do you have any suggestions?

ta backup has nothing to do with relocking bootloader
it is used to save some features of sony
relocking has not been made yet
and why would u want to relock?

To use SUS, you must have a locked bootloader. For those who have an unlocked bootloader, just wait until someone uploads an FTF. FTFs can be flashed on unlocked bootloaders using Flashtool by Androxyde.

You can easily relock the bootloader in just two steps.
Flash only the kernel via flashtool and then relock the bootloader also via flashtool.
You can't go wrong if you've used flashtool before.

The process is quite simple but do it at your own risk..
Turn on your computer's internet..
Open flashtool and select flashmode..
Select the firmware, then exclude everything but kernel (Remember only kernel should be selected, exclude everything)..
Uncheck every option in wipe..
Flash the mobile, it should take just 4-5 seconds..
Don't restart yet, disconnect your mobile..
Open BLU option in flashtool..
Connect your mobile, a dialog box will open, just click on relock..
(Remember, don't turn off the internet connection untill the bootloader is locked)
Restart your phone, it'll still be rooted and you'll be able to get all official updates..
Only thing you'll lose is the cwm recovery..
