Xperia M (C1904) not saving changes.

Xperia M (C1904) not saving changes. - Sony Xperia M

Good day,
I am unable to do a factory reset or flash my Xperia M.
I have unlocked the bootloader.
I tried to use the sony official tool to flash tool (EMMA) before and after unlocking bootloader - failed.
Tried to do a repair using PC Companion App - failed.
Tried to use the Androixdye flash tool - failed. ( It tells me to enable usb debugging via Dev. tools)
- I do that and shutdown the phone but it doesnt save it. I boot the phone back up and notice the setting is off again.
Issue: I tried the above only because the GAAPS on the phone keep crashing. (back to back error messages about google framework services , and many other google app crashes)
Even if i delete some messages(sms) and uninstall an application, and reboot the phone. The same messages and applications are in there again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and let me know if anything is required from my end.
ROM : Stock 4.3 from Sony, firmware - 15.4.A.1.9

[HELP]Boot animation stops, rebooting

Hey! I wanted to follow this Tutorial -> klick.
After i finished it, some of the Apps on my SD card didn't work anymore. I wanted to do a factory reset. The Problem is, i deleted some of the system apps, i even deleted the home.apk. I couldn't to anything without the home launcher, so i flashed a zip with launcher pro throu recovery. I downloaded root explorer and wanted to copy my backuped /system/app over to my phone, but i think this wasn't a good idea. The system crashed and just many many force closes came up. I closed everything, but the system still wanted to close, so i removed the battery...another bad idea. Now, if i want to turn on my Phone, the boot animation stops and the phone reboots and is doing the same.
I really hope anybody here can help me

It's called a bootloop, and from what you described caused it, it may be unfixable without flashing a fresh rom with flashtool.

Fine, but how can i do this? I've read that i habe to hold power when plugging it in while Flashtool is looking for an device, but the phone is just trying to boot normally
EDIT:
Ok, i have to push the back button... but if i want to Flash, i get this:
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - Now unplug the device and power it on
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - Then go to application settings
10/040/2012 06:40:20 - INFO - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
but i cant do this.

Found a solution! I installed the newest Firmware again with SEUS and everything is working. Thanks, XDA!

cant find any solution with 'media scanning"

hi2all
before post this thread i cheked all xda but anyone method did not help me
my problem is "scanning media files"
one day when i serfing inet my E975 has been rebooted
after load i got a first time boot start message
all data lost and phone ask me to set all setting from beginning
now i see alltime 'scanning media files'
I have tried the following: steps:
made hard resets - no effect
flashed using KDZ updater (E97510C_00, E97510a_00 E97510f_00) - no effect
used LGtool (selected recovery..inserted my IMEI and load) - no effect
and followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2010624
but problem haven't solved
always media scanning
cant try any ways like fleshing kernel, becose need fastboot mode
cant unlock fastboot, cos cant make root... anyone way to install root not work, cos no access to phone storage
someone told me i can try to do root with adb shell... but cant find how i can use this in my sutuation
I would be very thanksfull any help
i rly dont know what should i do next....

In the past I have a problem with media scanner message, always running in the background, although I had no problems about rebooting or soft-resets, it was only a message running in the background always. The way I solve it was to go into "almacenador de medios" (dont know in english, maybe something like "media store") in app manager, and then force stop, clean data and clean cache, reboot and after a first past again, all went ok. I suppose you continue with the message after reseting maybe because cache or dalvik cache is not clean.
Hope that help.

have you tried the lg pc suite?go to lg's site and download it and the connect your phone to pc in "pc suite" mode.then from there you can do an update or press the "emergency firmware recovery" under device menu.This will propably recover your phone.

already tried this
but problem havnt solved after "emergency firmware recover"

anyone knows how i can made root without access rights to sd card?
ways like "frameroot.apk" and via bat file "currentroot.bat" - not worked (all those methods need access to sd card)
or maybe there are any commands on ADB to reset or fix sd card?
i'm rly sad with my problem....

what is the model of your phone and ROM?
did You try go back to stock rom with LGMobile Support Tool?
I have same problem but it occurs when I flash to E97510D ROM (my phone is F180K):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246867
when I want to fix it, I make emergency firmware recovery in LGMobile Support Tool (and factory reset after this).

Maybe your motherboard is giving up

no... every time I go back to stock ROM, its working fine

Help, my ZL is dead

Hello, im from chile. My english is very bad so tell you the version of someone else having my problem, but with Xperia ZL.
Hi my Sony Xperia ZL is stuck in a bootloop and there seems to be no way to fix it.
Context:
Firmware: Generic 1270-7584 10.3.1.A.2.67 R2B.
"" The phone was working perfectly. I needed to use Google Maps as a GPS (voice guidance mode) and there seemed to be no problem. After 5-6 minutes the phone restarted. I assumed it was nothing so started Google Maps and voice guidance again. By the moment I was arriving to my destination the phone started bootlooping.
Here's what I tried: Reset button, PC Companion, SUS, Flashtool.
- Reset button: worked once, after a few minutes the bootloop started again and the reset button doesn't fix it anymore.
- Sony PC Companion: The "repair" option does it's job, meaning that it seems to complete the update flawlessly. When I turn on the phone it starts booting but when Android starts to load I get the "Process System is not responding" message.
There's not much I can do before the phone restarts. Once it restarts it enters in Bootloop again loosing functionality on every startup. By the third or fourth startup the only thing the phone loads is the Unlock homescreen.
- Flashtool for xperia (Emma): Useless. There's nothing for my phone version there.
- Flashtool: Seems to flash the selected ftf but the bootloop is still there with the same "Process system is not responding" message. ""
In my case, the phone died after using whatsapp... but is the same
someone help me please :crying:

[NEED HELP] TWRP backup of nova 2? Android not starting.

I messed up my nova 2 i think. However I got TWRP from cofface, which is working fine. However I am not able to get my phone back working.
I tried this thread with the image supplied there. But no luck. Maybe I am doing it wrong.
I tried to update with sd card update as stated here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nova-2/help/help-restore-stock-recovery-t3741034
But phone boots in Huawei eRecovery and when I select "Download latest version and recovery", connect to Wifi, the process fails
"Getting package info from server" -> "Getting package info failed".
Any help on how to get my phone back to life / install stock rom / install alt os is very much appreciated. I am not that experienced yet to track errors in my process. :cyclops:

Q: Sony Xperia M5 (E5603) and 30.2.A.2.1 update - lost charging.

Hello
First to mention - Sony Xperia M5 phone is bootloader locked.
Battery changed 3 months ago.
Software - Stock.
Latest build: 0.9.25.0
Current build : Version 0.9.23.1 built on 11-01-2017 15:12:00
Have not yet updated Flashtool, due 0.9.23.1 was suggested for downgrade by some portugese forum and video tutorial i watched.
Update was announced and i had it always on auto update - i saw message on phone while it was charging (battery was 80% or so...
It did performed update, booted up - but charging liht went red. first at glance everything seemed OK and working, but when i started to download some taken pics from phone, there was no connection with comp. Ok , i did went for BT and uploaded pics to comp.
Later i started to investigate , bo matter i did , changing cables , chargers -- no go , still red light.
I tried repair thru Xperia Companion - installs software 30.2.A.2.1-R2E - New stup and all the stuff but no change.
Is it possible - update did crash something in charging cable module inside the phone - there is some kind of chip on that cable?
So im considering downgrade, S1 fastboot driver installed (blue light) , phone gets connected and flashmode driver (Green light) as well gets detected.
Bit of concern for me - due it can't detect phone in data mode (MTP or PTP) - is proceeding with flash "safe".
Flashtool is latest and 30.0.A.1.23_R1A software downloaded to comp.
Now next step would be creating FTF file.
Suggested by tutorials around - need remove (delete) file FWINFO.XML
Done.
Now looking in to update.xml file
There appears to be boot.zip file listed - which is not in extracted file folder , instead of it is folder boot
with serveral boot-related files.
Qestion is will the flashtool pick FCS file automatically and set right order or i have to apply it to folder where extracted files
are and include in ftf creation process?

Just plug your phone in and use the latest version of flashtool then use xperifirm to download the firmware for your exact device model and then it will give you instructions and it will ask if you want to use FSC script and click yes if you click no the flash will abort
