Hey!
I unlocked the bootloader from my xperia m. I used fastboot instructed on the cyanogenmod site. I'm done and haven't any problem but when i want to started the phone it's stucked in bootloop. What should i do?
After unlock bootloader you need to flash stock firmware using flashtool.

It always happens upon unlocking your boot loader. Don't panic download the .ftf file, flash it and wait
*blink*
It's normal problem, try to flash ftf file with Flashpoint and do a full wipe data from flashtool and after flash just wait it for first boot it will take a while, because you do a full wipe ok
if when flashed the ftf file how can i root the phone? maybe can you write it? if it is not a problem thanks

your phone is in lock bootloader or not? if in lock bootloader try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53565495&postcount=1, and if you on unlock bootloader you can install cwm recovery directly from fastboot mode and install supersu.zip from chainfire blog bro ok
Where can i check the bootloader status? Cause I unlocked the bootloader just i have a bootloop, you know.
Edit: I checked in Service Menu. Bootloader unlock: Yes. This would be?

After flashing stock rom using flashtool , you ll not get bootloop....
After that
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* . Then go to -> "Service Info" -> "Configuration". If there is:
Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes << this means that your Bootloader is Locked, but can be unlocked ..
If it shows
Bootloader Unlocked - Yes << this means that your bootloader is unlocked
Hope it helps

Then choose the downloaded custom recovery image file .. That's it..,

Everything is working, sometimes google play services will show that it has stopped working unfortunately.. But no major problem with this rom..

For some custom roms you need to flash kernels via fastboot and for this you need unlocked bootloader.
if bootloader it's locked use Google and search there is official way to unlock but you will lose warranty and drm.

Considering you already have flashtool and your desired kernel follow this :
1) Plug in your phone in fastboot mode [S-Off, hold menu key and plug in to PC]
2) Place you .img on your desktop
3) Open up flashtool, select fastboot mode and select flash kernel and select it from the desktop
4) Once kernel is flashed un plug your device restart it open up CWM and flash desired ROM.
Hopefully i helped you out

To install fastboot drivers you have to be very fast, 2 or 3 times practice is necessary. Going to device manger install your driver so quickly then you can get your phone at fastboot mode easily. You won't get time more than 3 to 4 seconds.....!
I think, you already have fastboot drives downloaded at your PC, thanks!
If the problem again remains, please update your flashtool...! This also may be an issue.

This is advanced stock kernel which has pre-loaded CWM recovery, when phone reboots you will get led to yellow then press volume + & you can use working recovery!
And then flash latest 6.2.B.1.96 FW..!
But if u want rooted 1.96, don't forget to follow this tutorial...!

Hi there,
Has anyone got a way out of this.....
I have a rooted C1905 that I have been playing around with. I want to try CM11 but boot loader unlock fails with a "FAILED (unknown status code)" report after I send my unlock code. I then thought I'd flash back to stock using S.U.S. but that fails too saying that I have a customized rom... which I don't!!! I seem to be stuck! is there anyway to force a stock flash?
Cheers
Have you checked if your bootloader can be unlocked? Go to the dialer, type *#*#7378423#*#* then go to Service info => Configuration. In rooting status, it should say "Bootloader unlock allowed: yes", otherwise it won't work. About your flashing problem, try connecting the phone directly in flash mode before opening SUS, by turning off your phone, holding Volume Down and plugging USB cable or by flashing a FTF file through Flash Tool...
It happened to me also ,check your IMEI CODE,you need to send first 14 digits of your IMEI,

Flashed an FTF of the latest but still can't unlock the bootloader. still get "unknown Error" and it wipes my apps.
Also can't use "repair my phone" on PCC as it says I have a Customised Rom, could this be due to me trying tools like flashgordon and debloat/deoxing flashing or routing? if so how can I get back to a stock state for a UK XM so I can start again?

Nope, but try this anyway.
1. Disconnect your phone and turn it off but keep the cable attached
2. Open PCC and go to Update
3. When it says no device found click the blue repair link
4. Choose Xperia M when asked to
5. Follow the instructions

Thnks in advnce!!
1) Unlock your bootloader, Google 'Sony unlock bootloader' for this.
2) Install a custom kernel with CWM built in, you will need flashtool for that.
That is the only way you can install CWM, it is not available for locked bootloaders.

Flash a ftf and start over, and confirm you've actually unlocked your BL. You clearly haven't read instructions properly either, so do that, rushing when you don't know what you're doing makes things worse.

Great!
As for your fastboot problem: After you installed flashtool, did you go into it's folder, then to the "drivers" folder, and install the fastboot driver from there? (it shows you a list of drivers available for install - I believe fastboot is near the bottom?) Note that if you're going to do this on Windows 8, you will need to disable Driver Signature Enforcement

Try flashing a kernel, make sure the Phone is connected to the computer and in fastboot mode before running any commands, reboot both if it still fails and/or try another USB port.

Great!
As for your fastboot problem: After you installed flashtool, did you go into it's folder, then to the "drivers" folder, and install the fastboot driver from there? (it shows you a list of drivers available for install - I believe fastboot is near the bottom?) Note that if you're going to do this on Windows 8, you will need to disable Driver Signature Enforcement

now i flashed " Z1c_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-114_v01.img " .. tried to reboot but it runs in reboot loop .. what is the solution for that ?
I'm with @XperienceD on this - it's time to pause and do some more reading and research.
That custom kernel you just flashed - what firmware is it based on? It's a good idea to make sure that kernel is compatible with the base system firmware that is currently on your phone.
