[Solved] Bootloop after booloader unlock

Hi everyone!
So after unlocking my bootloader following Sony's guide, I restarted the phone but it got stuck in the bootanimation. The good news is that I had flashed CWM, the bad news is that the phone still gets stuck on the boot animation even With the Official CyanogenMod 11...
I really don't know what I must do and I can't find something concrete about my problem.
The bootloader can be unlocked, I've tested (with the code) before attempting anything. I have also the 4.3 update and followed a guide. I did flash the boot.img via fastboot. That's it. And the Xperia M I'm owning is a C1905.
I hope you people can help me, thanks in advance !

This happened to me the other day. Just reflash the 4.3 with flashtool, it will fix the bootloop. After that you can do whatever you want. Here is a link to download the stuff you need:

First of all use questions and troubleshooting section... I have to report the thread to be moved.

Second of all you do not have any problem.
The point is that you unlocked the bootloader while you have a rooted modified rom, right?
So after unlocking it do a factory reset, and due to modified system partition you are stuck on boot screen.
The solution is very simple, use flash tool and flash android 4.3 tft.
Then start your phone and make sure it boot up at least one time on stock firmware before starting with cm11 flash procedures.
Good-luck.

Ohh thank you ! I've downloaded the *.tft and flashed it back, after a long flashing process, it worked. What's not cool is that it took too ling to boot and all that time I was very very stressed xD !

Not really, I tried to unlock the bootloader with the stock ROM so I could root it, install CWM and install other ROMs, flasing back the *.tft fixed that, thanks for the advice ! Finally, I'm really sorry for posting in the wrong thread, I was a little bit stressed and struggling for help ^^' ...

Please Help Fix My Bricked Xperia Arc S

Hello geeks, please help me out wai, I was updating my xperia arc s via OTA and dumsor happened all I could do is watch my run out of battery and go off, when the light was in, I powered my phone on just to see it stuck in a boot loop with xperia on the screen that's all. I flashed it with xpreia flash tool using ICS 4.0.4 since that's the FW version it had before but still it remained in boot loop just as it was before, I then downgraded to gingerbread and still stick in boot loop.Hmmm am worried indeed can someone please help me out? maybe recommend a different software for the flashing cos I Google and all they recommend is the flashtool I had used before. Plsssss Help

Secure Boot Error

Hi guys,
I've clicked Device Test on the Hidden Menu and the phone went into ATT mode. However, it wont boot, saying Secure Boot Error, Boot Certification Verify 680 or 670 sometimes.
I have a custom ROM installed, and through the recovery I've already tried to flash my ROM again, but it is still not booting. How can I fix this?
Please help me!
Thank you

thank you for the reply but this is not really a fix for me since i don't have a backup of my data, there are things on my phone that i can't afford to lose yet, if there are other ways to try that would be great.
things i have tried so far:
re-flashing boot.img and aboot.img
flashing stock Marshmallow rom
also i read somewhere here that dirty flashing the kernel might fix this but i have no idea on how to do that.
any ideas?
