Hello everyone. I've been searching the forums for two weeks now, and I haven't found the solution to my problem. I accidentally deleted all system apk's from an Xperia Arc, and now the phone gets stuck at boot loop. It shows the Sony logo, the Xperia logo and then restarts. Flashtool recognizes the phone, and when I try to install a recovery, it restarts. The phone is rooted, but recovery does not work. Hard reset does not work either, nor can I flash the kernel with flashtool. Sony PC companion recognizes the phone, but I can't get it into fastboot mode, pressing the back button while connecting the usb cable does not work. What can I do to get the phone working again?
Can you try to flash a FTF stock firmware first? If you have problems with fastboot you should try flashing a full ROM first.

Hi popthosegaskets
I did try to load a firmware with a ftf file. I follow all instructions carefuly, and when I get to the part where I have to connect the phone to the usb cable while pressing the back key, nothing happens. I have Windows 8.1, gordon gate drivers installed and FlashTool 0.9.13.0.
Did you install the latest Windows 8.1 update?

Thanks Diabblo, I will try this when I get home later. I must say that my computer recgonizes the phone, but I'll give it a try, I'm desperate and I want to find a solution to this.
Update is installed, and I cannot get into fastboot mode, nor can I enter recovery mode and the phone keeps restarting.

sorry can you give my a little rsume of your phone actualitty and before,
stock ? bootlader unlock ? recovery ? kernel ? rom ? firmwarre numbers ?
PC, 64 32 bits ?

If you can geet in recoverry try flash a custom rom (for locked or unlocked )
Last chance if pc and flashtool do not reconize you use a live cd ubuntu or somme other linux to get phone back a life.
Thanks

Windows 8.1 64Bits / Yes, I have tried Flashtool, I cannot get into recovery. The phone was in stock rom, I tried to install Clockwork recovery mode, but it didn't work. I then cleaned all system apks, thinking that it would erase the previos recovery and allow me to install a new one, so I could install a custom rom (Zelly Cream V3). The phone is rooted, but keeps restarting. Locked bootloader, I cannot give you firmware number, the phone does not boot into android.

Okay show how have you install/try cwm recovery the first time ?
Yes flashtool is not for get cwm is for flash stock ftf, you don't need cwm to is working.
copy ftf in good folder launch flashtool and Just follow the instructions.
I would suggest u to install Windows 7 and flash stock firmware ftf using flashtool. In Windows 8.1 fastboot & flashmode drivers are only working if u have usb 3.0 port in ur pc.

The problem is that the phone itself won't enter fasboot or flashmode. The led does not turn blue. I don't think it's a problem with my computer, but I'll try with another computer.

Hey guys
it's an OLD issue with my phone, some of you were able to help me before, and I hope it is the same CASE again.
I'm unable to update my Phone to correct the HEARTBLEED BUG!!
& Can't ROOT it!!
I think the problem is with the MASTER USB, whatever that is
because whenever I try to update it or root it, it says CAN'T OPEN Master USB!
I followed EVERY STEP available on the WORLD WIDE WEB , yet my phone is called a SMART PHONE !

First you must be with stock rom and stock recovery if you want to update the phone and the phon must be not rooted. Second when you go in bootloader first go in bootloader and then connect the phone to computer and you will not see this massage
Well, even when I go into the bootloader and connect my USB, NOTHING happens!
Please see the pic.

It looks like you need to unlock the bootloader and flash a recovery image. That's if Sony have created a recovery image for this phone. If not, then you can't.
Or you'll just have to wait for some developers to start working on this device. Hopefully we'll have root and recoveries soon...

Hi!
The Xperia phone doesn't have a stock recovery, it just isn't a bootable thing.
You could however install a custom recovery, completely up to you.
Cheers :good:

Hey there man, I can't unlock my bootloader since it is in bootloop and also I have trouble flashing stock rom on xa1 ultra device.. it says no matching loader found. it basically skips flashing the rom. I have downloaded the rom through xperifirm and installed right drivers..
why cant the flash tool recognize and find the loader? does the loader mean the bootloader of the phone? which I have no way to unlock?:crying:

I have the same problem, downloaded the rom through xperrfilm, but it doesnt recognize my .ftf
I flashed the wrong bootloader so fastboot does not work. I still have TWRP Working but anything I flash does not boot. I am looking for a full factory OTA that I can flash via TWRP so it will re-flash the proper bootloader and all the other factory images so I can un-brick it through fastboot. I have tried to flash many different update files but it gives an error 7 and says to be on 6.0.1 or 7.0 before installing it. Can someone please help me un-brick this or link a full OTA that I can flash via TWRP. I attached the bootloader.img so if anyone could make a flashable zip to flash the stock bootloader that would probably work.

If fastboot works then you're not hard bricked, most likes soft brick. I would suggest flashing magisks 14 after you flash the rom as dm-verity will check if your system is modified , dm-verity needs to be disabled

I already tried flashing magisk. Also I can boot into the bootloader but the computer does not see it in fastboot anymore (probably because I flashed the bootloader.img for the moto z play droid accidentally)

not exactly because twrp works. If I could flash fastboot images through TWRP I could un-brick it. If somebody could modify the stock rom's updater-script and remove the requirement to be running a stock rom then I could flash that and I would probably be unbricked.

Bootloader can not be flashed through twrp so you'll need to flash the bootloader through fastboot. If your device is not recognized when you plug it in your computer then you're hard bricked, if fastboot is not accessable then you're hard bricked

so you are sure that it is impossible to make a flashable zip of bootloader. Maybe it is just my computer I'll try booting of linux on usb and then see if fastboot can see it.

Have you tried using these albus (Z2 Play) blank flashes as mentioned here to repair your bootloader? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73402033&postcount=181
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73411048&postcount=206
These may hopefully get your device to the point where it's recognised in fastboot and you can then flash the stock ROM via fastboot.
