Hi, I just installed the latest Paranoid Android ROM into my Xperia S.. During the unlock of the boot loader the device was recognized by my PC in fastboot mode, so I had no problem unlocking it. Not even flashing the recovery (TWRP) and the boot.img file gave me any problem..
Now if I try in any way to boot into recovery, my phone gets into fastboot mode instead of recovery mode. Also, my PC can't recognize the device anymore.. If I connect the phone in fastboot mode into the PC, the PC says that there are no driver installed.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreciated..

Hey guys,I was trying to install cwm on my xperia m(c1904) i unlocked the bootloader and and the phone rebooted and the device started successfully,then I tried to install cwm by this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2480556 on the 7th setp it said Execute:
Code:
fastboot flash boot combined-xperia-m-boot.img
I tried that by DOS but it failed
I opened flashtools and opened fastboot mode and selected "select system to flash" and gave the location of that cwm img file,it got stuck at 0% so I unplugged and rebooted my phone and now it's only showing the SONY logo,I can't boot into recovery and when I connect my phone to flash mode the green LED turns on for only 1 second,flashtool does recognizes the phone but when I try to flash the stock firmware it starts flashing it but nothing happens and it shows 0%
I even tried PC companion for recovery but says"modified system detected,cannot repair"
the phone is able to boot into fastboot mode with the blue LED on
ok i unricked it ,reinstalled latest flash tool and flashed stock firmware,now can some1 explain me how do i flash cwm ?
What OS that your use?
In Windows 8 you need to disable driver enforcement before you can install flashtool driver properly

you can use kernel flasher for that. or if you have fastboot then
1. enable USB debugging and connect phone to pc.
2. execute the following commands
"adb reboot-bootloader"
"fastboot flash boot <recovery img name>
"fastboot reboot"
this solved the problem,thanks :good:

Can someone help me to unbrick my cell phones asap

So I was running a custom ROM for a while and decided to switch back to the stock ROM. After doing that, I flashed the stock recovery so that I could install the OTA update from version 4.28.502.2 to version 6.20.502.5. During installation, the phone got stuck in a bootloop, so I wiped the cache and tried to start it again. After that didn't work, I factory reset it (in the bootloader, and then in recovery after it didn't work), and it still doesn't work. ADB and fastboot doesn't detect my device even though I had USB debugging on before I tried to update it (I'm guessing that the factory reset disabled that?). I can access the bootloader and recovery, and my phone has an unlocked bootloader with S-On. I have the AT&T HTC One M8 if that helps. Can someone help me please?
Hi,
Can you go to boot loader and then connect your phone into your computer after that you flash the recovery like TWRP, wipe all the data and reflash your rom, you can find it on XDA. After that you have to find the correct recovery for your device (see the website of Mike1987), find the correct recovery for your device and then flash the stock recovery and it have to work. Waiting for your news.
Have a nice day

I'm saying that my computer doesn't recognize my phone, and that's why I can't flash a custom recovery like TWRP
Have you got the right drivers installed, have you tired another hub ? Is your battery fully charged ?

Yes, I have the right drivers installed. Yes, I have tried a different USB port. Yes, my battery is fully charged.
Try to uninstall the drivers and download the HTC drivers, fastboot and adb from Internet and try again. Do you have another PC? Because one time i have got the same problem than you and when i take another PC it's worked.

The drivers fail to install everytime, and I've tried on three different PCs
Your problem is not the phone cause it detected by the PC but the drivers failed to detect you HTC. Can you say if you boot your phone in the boot loader, the phone show you if is in boot loader connected by usb or not?

adb won't work on bootloader/fastboot mode. Only fastboot does.
When on fastboot, type command fastboot devices, do you get your device serial no. ?
On bootloader/fastboot, what is x the OS-x.xx.502.x now ?

Seems like your main issue was not properly using fastboot mode for fastboot, and realizing that adb doesn't work in bootloader mode? That, and having the proper firmware and RUU files.
I have installed both ADB and Fastboot with all the drivers on both a windows computer as well as a Mac just to be sure it wasn't me. I recently followed the guide to unlocking the bootloader to the vzn note 4 and on download mode I am showing developer. All is well aside from when I need to flash the TWRP recover, I tried flashing through Odin and it states complete and the phone reboots. When rebooting to recover, stock android recovery opens. I would like to know if flashing through Fastboot would work being that it is unlocked. If so the only issue is, ADB is working find but Fastboot will not detect the phone at all when it is put in download mode. Any ideas?
So basically what happened is that i flash a bad rom on my htc a5dwg. I could boot into TWRP 2.8.7.0 and flashed roms through ADB sideload but all gave me some error and were not flashing. So i flashed TWRP 3.1.1 img. Now i cant Access recovery, nor power and vol down button take me to HBOOT or Fastboot mode. Cant reboot to rom. Stuck at boot screen with HTC logo and the unlocked bootloader warning. I connected my phone to laptop and it does show up in device manager as MTP USB device but i cant use fastboot or ADB commands as it does not show up in the Fastboot ADB device options, Some help would be highly appreciated.
i am having the same problem have you found any way out yet?
Previously I was using Ressurection Remix treble rom which is based on android 9 pie. I went to TWRP and wiped the OS. Then I tried to install a new rom called Dot OS. But it showed error 7. So I flashed Vendortofactory zip within twrp and without rebooting again into TWRP I flashed a new TWRP image within TWRP by selecting Recovery mode. After that I cant boot into TWRP and as already my OS is gone I also cannot boot into any system. Moreover my device is not getting detected in my PC. I cannot install TWRP by writing commands in cmd, while the phone is in fastboot mode as the device is not getting detected in my pc. Really it is urgent. I will be glad if someone helps me. Thanks in advance.
What is the present booted state of your device? Are you in twrp, or bootloader. Most of the time you can keep on pressing the power button. When it boots into a message about unlocked bootloader, press volume button to select recovery and it will boot into twrp
You should be able to boot in fastboot mode without recovery nor os, maybe your drivers are not working on windows? Try different usb ports, check if the display says "bootloader" or something. If nothing works try the usb shunt, this device is literally 'unbrickable' if it's working properly.
Watch this video(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DexLELi04XY) and then you will be able to detect your phone in your pc in qcom 9008 mode , then use qfil to flash ZUI firmware ,there are plenty of tutorials on the internet for that ,then follow the proper procedure mentioned in DotOs thread for flashing the new rom .
Hope it helped .
If you don't want to flash the firmware and all long process just follow the following steps
Enter in to the boot loader make sure you installed all the drivers in to pc then open cmd windows in adb fastboot folder and enters the following cmd into the cmd
Fastboot -i 0x2b4c devices this will detect your device
After that enter
Fastboot -i0x2b4c flash recovery recovery name.img
And boom you are good to go flash the rom of your choice and enjoy
For this process you need following files
Adb and fastboot devices
Drivers of zuk z2
Latest recovery and place revovery image file into the adb and fastboot folder if you are confused about anything pm me i am not the expert but i faced simillar problem and solved by this method

This assumes u have upgraded bootloader to 4.4 kernal.
U can still boot into twrp.. When the phone is booting up press vol up key and select recovery.. From there boot into twrp. There select f2v or v2f .. Then flash twrp which u want to flash.. Reboot to recovery.. U will get promp no os installed.. Ignore and reboot to recovery . Then again d9 f2v or v2f depending on what rom to install.. Again reboot to recovery... Then flash rom of ur choice.
This procedure is needed when changing from vendor to factory and vice versa.
