I flashed the stock ftf in flashtool and restarted entire process. Does it reboot after phone loads up or during boot up? I think the new xposed update disables during safe mode(not sure what you installed) try that first and uninstall the module or xposed itself in safe mode if it fully boots up. go to power menu, long press restart and itll go to safe mode.

After installing installing xposed module if your phone goes into bootloop, boot into recovery, flash Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip automatically created by Xposed and located in the internal memory. Then reinstall Xposed and enable modules one by one to find out the bad one

If think for you the best solution is to try a clean install, you will loose everything from the internal memory : download and flash one of these firmware thru flashtool --> Wipe everything

i had tried this earlier but couldnt get flashtool to actually flash the ftf, it just kept saying preparing
restarted and retried several times but never worked
could it be the versoin of flashtool that im using?
Use latest version of Flashtool 0.9.16.0! Uninstall previous version before installing the lastest and if you are on WIN8 follow this too : How to install drivers on Windows 8
Plus it can take up to 5minutes for flashtool to prepare the files, depending on the hd speed.
so i reinstalled the 757.ftf using flashtool
worked like a charm on 9.16
i was running 9.10
so thanks everyone i appreciate it!

Q) Xperia S l26i rooted,unlocked bootloader. Now stuck in bootloop. Please HELP

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to install custom recovery in my Sony Xperia S L26ii , So rooted it a week ago. It is rooted for sure., I installed titanium backup and backed up everything. Yesterday I did unlock my bootloader so that I can install a custom recovery and custom rom. I followed the procedure of official way of unlocking bootloader by getting the key and unlocked it using fastboot command.
Till This everything works fine.I could boot into my device.
I flashed Twrp recovery adb fastboot. After this I wanted to backup my Stock rom. While I try to perform backup i got an error "unable to mount data" and it was unsucessfull.
I tried to reboot the system and shocked that it is stuck in boot loop now. I am seeing the word "Sony " and again it is rebooting,
I tried whatever I can by browsing internet. It seems I cannot use pc companion since I unlocked bootloader and installed custom recovery.
i tried to download tft file from somewhere and tried to flash through flashtools and got an error "ERROR - Processing of loader.sin finished with errors."
Dont know what to do. Any help would be highly appreciated. All I could access is TWRP recovery . currently I powered off the phone.
Please help me in the right direction.
Regards,
Suresh

It is the "ftf" file, not "tft". Try Flashing the stock ftf file immediately again after You get the error, it will work. You get the error first time.

Thank you bro for replying and correcting me. Yes ftf file. I am downloading stock ftf from XDA forum (thanks for the member) and Will try to flash it (by pressing volume down and connecting usb cable to it) and will let you know.
Im just wondering , yesterday when I saw the phone in bootloop , I paniked and try to perform factory reset couple of times . Though it did not help in anyway. Will it disable usb debugging? If so is there any way we can reenable it from recovery or any other way?

Nah it won't affect You while flashing the ftf file. You can always flash the ftf file using flashtool by fastboot, no matter what.

Bro, You are great. That worked. It did revoked my root and locked bootloader though. But that is fine. I could do root and unlock the bootloader again..
A quick question. It all happened when I flashed TWRP recovery in this phone using this link (http://techglen.com/2014/02/12/install-twrp-custom-recovery-on-xperia-s-lt26i-nozomi/2/). I have already flashed TWRP in another HTC but it never caused this issue.
Is there any issue in installing TWRP in xperia sl ?
Should I use only CWM recovery?
If i can use Twrp , is there any good way/post or steps you recommend.?
Many Thanks again:good:

Weird. It should not lock Your bootloader, since locking bootloader has different procedure. Anyways, TWRP works fine with Xperia SL. Even My phone is a SL and I always use twrp. Which version where You using of twrp? Use this version. And flash it using the command by connecting Your phone in fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot flash boot openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-LT26i.img

Bro. I flashed this recovery and now after reboot phone is going to recovery only. I manually tried to reboot it to bootloader and it is getting to TWRP recovery only. I tried to flash a Kitkat rom which was in my internal memory as zip file it failed with error " error executing updater binary in zip" did google search on it and got to know to overcome this error I had to be on TWRP 2.8.0.1 but we are already in that code, I dont know why I was still getting that error.
So I used the ftf file again to flash . I followed the forum "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28305266&postcount=3" to get the ftf file. I could see there are ftf for ginger bread and ICS , but I could only flash Ginger bread since I am getting error when I flash ICS ftf. not sure why.
Now having stock Ginger Bread rom rooted and bootloader unlocked.
I am happy that you brought me this far. It Would be great if you could guide me to proceed further to install any custom recovery and any custom rom of Jelly bean and higher. :good:
- Suresh
I also wanted to try something before you come online . so flashed the custom recovery which you have provided and flashed cyanogenmod 9 latest nightly and current status is
Rooted, bootloader unlocked, installed custom recovery(TWRP){with your wonderful assistance} , flashed cyanogenmod 9 nightly(ICS)
All I need now is a jelly bean rom or KITKAT rom (preferable )

My Bad, that procedure installs a Kernel, and since it was not compatible with the ROM You were using, it only booted to the twrp. Copy the file to Your internal sdcard and use these following commands on Terminal Emulator app from playstore:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/fotakernel.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
where fotakernel.img is the name of Your .img file.
It was weird that You go that error while flashing a Kitkat ROM. Which ROM were You trying to flash? If You wan to flash a Kitkat ROM, then follow the procedure here, no matter which Android version You are on, no need to do anything else.

Z1 compact install recovery mode after KingRoot root

Hi!
I try to root my Xperia Z1 compact to install Slow motion and 4k video.
I have android 5.1.1 and build 14.6.A.1.236.
I've successfully root with Kingroot but now, I have to enter in recovery mode (because all the tutorial I found give a .zip to install via recovery).
If I hold volume up or down (or just press several times) during boot, nothing append (just: my phone pass in "security mode" when I hold volume down...)
So I suppose I dont have any recovery mode installed.
But I absolutely don't know which method use to do that... Or if it's possible to install SlowMotion an 4k without use recovery mode?
Thanks for your help!

Best option with stock is NUT's dual recovery installer - http://nut.xperia-files.com/path/XZDualRecovery/XZDualRecovery_2.8.23 Download the file for Z1c, and run the bat file on your computer.

Strange - maybe incompatible recovery issue. Try one of the links here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65996596&postcount=6 Also, do you have updated Sony bootloader with real recovery, or are you using old recovery?
I tried both recoverys from yours links. On both same problem. As I said before, right now i cant even connect my phone to PC through flash mode or fastboot

I'm surprised that neither flash mode nor fastboot works anymore just because you flashed some recovery and boot imgs. Usually you have to do something more drastic to cause that. However, if you really can't getbinto flash mode or fastboot, and you can't boot anything, then that petty much eliminates your normal procedures. Possibly there's been hardware damage. Try Sony PC Companion, and choose repair phone option.

How did you get a rooted ftf? I think that might be the problem. Unless you mean a prf... Best way to root KK is just flash stock ROM and use doomlord rootkit.

If you want to be on 4.4, use Flashtool and flash a stock 4.4 ftf, then root with Doomlord. If you want to be on LP, use Emma, it will download and flash firmware for you.

When you flash with Flashtool, there is a box that says 'wipe'. Check the 'userdata' option.

Did you unlock bootloader? KK version 442 or 443? Add debugging enabled in settings? If all yes, I'm not sure why it wouldn't work. You could try different options, there are a few for KK - pimped kernel, Great devs kernel, and you could root with easy rootkit.
BTW - to restore your phone without flashing whole ROM again, check boxes under 'exclude' options for everything but kernel.

Do you have root access when you turn on the phone? Did you make sure USB debugging is enable in settings, and also check 'allow USB debugging' pop-up when you connect to computer? If yes to all, just restart computer and/or phone, and reconnect and try again. XZDR is solid. If you have root, it will work. BTW - is bootloader unlocked or locked?

Bootloader unlocked: Yes
Rooting status: "here is nothing" i guess not
i restared everything still not work but i guess its because i dont get the root acces thats my main problem when should i have got it ?
Another Idea: When i install the EasyRootTool v12.4 it ends with "creating vm <loljavasucks>" is that what it supposed to write when its finished? When i keep that Easyroot window open and start the dual recovery installation, the easyroot tells me "done, checking if device is rooted... error: its not"
So i guess the problem is that i still not rooted my device but i thought that is what i am actually trying to do with easyroot..?

Ok, try this - download this zip https://mega.nz/#!lh9i0AYI!iH3Vw5keSNo66CHvq3c6V9HMCWAWJ5FIYcZZ35U254g It contains 2 files, one is a kernel and one is a recovery. Also download supersu 246 zip from here https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip?retrieve_file=1 and put it on your phone somewhere. Then connect in fastboot mode and flash the 2 IMG files:
'fastboot flash boot [name of kernel file].img'
'fastboot flash recovery [name of recovery file].img'
Then unplug and power on. When you see colored led, press volume key and you should get into recovery. When in recovery, flash supersu zip. Then power off, and connect in flash mode. Open Flashtool and flash the stock kernel from your ftf. Reboot and you should be rooted.
Thanks that worked! And now i flash the 4.4 stockrom and after that a prerooted version?

You can flash whatever you want now. If you want stock 5.1, you can use Flashtool / Xperifirm to download ftf and flash, or use Emma. You will lose root, but you can get it back the same way you just did. If you want to root 5.1 that way, you can extract boot img from advanced kernel and download latest twrp img, and just fastboot those, and no need to reflash stock kernel afterwards.
Advanced kernel - https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...rnel-advanced-14-5-0-242-kernel-v1-0-t3096060
Twrp 3 for Z1c - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862711713
Alternately, you could flash a prf, or any custom ROM you want
