hi,
any help is hugely appreciated.
I wiped my phone in recovery with the option to wipe for new custom rom, this worked fine. when i went to install custom rom it failed and then turned itself off. now the phone just gets stuck at the Sony logo. the only way i can turn it off is via the red button in the sim slot.
I am unable to connect to the computer at all, no fastboot. I'm also unable to boot into recovery to restore.
Please help. Hope i haven't ****ed it up beyond fixing
Thanks
Flash a stock ftf with flashtool (in flashmode). You should definitely get into flashmode and fastboot, otherwise there is a problem with your computer.
Funny, I didn't even know there was a red button Holding Volume Up + Power for a few seconds always worked for me, no matter in which state the phone was.
Hi all,
I've exactely the same problem !!!
My phone stuck to Sony logo, and not reconyze on my 3 PC.... before that, usb connexion work fine on all PC, but now.... nothing
I've just POWER + and VOL+ (its power off the phone), i've no led color light
I've try flashboot, but not detect my phone
i've try to install :
flashtool-0.9.16.1-windows (not detected)
Flashtool-drivers-1.5-20140318 (my computer doesnt not see my phone)

I'm lost... I need your help XDA members ! just U can help me
PS : the red button is in the SIM slot, but i think is same POWER + (VOL+).... its power off the phone
Because you're doing it wrong. Vol+ enters fastboot mode, you have to press Vol- to enter flashmode. Then use Flashtool to restore the firmware.

Hello everyone.
I need help.
I would like to root my G3. Or downgrade to 4.4.2. Or flash another ROM.
I can;t do any of these because my phone gets stuck in Fastboot mode when I try to get into Download mode.
I did a hard reset, and I am trying the simultaneous vol down + power key for many times now. but it just won;t go into Download mode. The "Dowlnoad" symbol show up for a fraction of a second and then it goes to a black screen with very small letters, I can read "Fastboot", and then it's frozen. The only way out is to remove the battery.
My G3 is an unblocked version running 5.0, Kernel 3.4.0.
Build Number LRX21R.A1432346132 and Software version is V20h-GLOBAL-YT
Model number is LG-D855, 32 GB. Wi-Fi MAC Address and Bluetooth address are blank.
I live in Honduras, Central America
Does anyone know what the problem is? Can it be fixed?
Thanks!
I thought Download Mode was accessed by holding down the volume up button, then plugging in the microUSB cable to the phone. This w/ the phone powered off, and the USB side of the cable already plugged into the computer. Holding down the power and volume down buttons at the same time is for performing a hard reset or entering Recovery Mode.
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry, that's what I meant, vol up, not down.

Download a kdz for your version and extract it, flash the laf partition while in fastboot mode
Code:
fastboot flash laf laf.img
Have you tried with a different cable? I had the same problem, but when I tried with a cable different than the original, everything worked fine.

Hello,
I think I bricked my phone
I wanted to upgrade from 4.4.2 to Lollipop http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/stock-14-6-1-236-customized-lollipop-5-t3264557
And before that I did a factory reset and format data (I got some issues on my phone and wanted to get rid of them).
Now I can not enter TWRP, I can not enter any thing. At the time beeing, after many restarts my red button is broken, I switch it off by "Power/Vol+". When I connect USB or push Power it starts and showing "SONY"-Logo, and that's it.
I can not enter flash-mode by swith off, hold Vol- and connect USB :crying:
What can I do to revive my Z1c?
Thanks for advices

Yes, I have, but can not enter my phone/don't know how to enter.
I tried switch off (by Power and Vol+), holding Vol- (the same with Vol+) and plug in USB - it starts by showing red light for 2 sec than "SONY", and than stps - no vibration, no light, only steady "SONY"
cmd shows: D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot recovery
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot recovery
error: device not found
D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot bootloader

Phhu, hopefully I do something wrong?!

Power off by holding power and volume up, just wait until it turns off. When it's totally shut off, just hold volume up while plugging in cable and don't let go of volume until you see blue led. Then you're in fastboot mode. If you have drivers installed, it's very easy to get into recovery from there. Report back.
If everything fails...
Install Flashtool on your PC, install the necessary drivers (flashtool helps you with that), download the current firmware in .ftf format and apply it with Flashtool to your phone.
No worries, we all were at your point sometime but you can always recover
Thanks for your hints, folks!
I'll try them tomorrow and give feedback than.
Happened to me once.. Accidentally wiped my data..
Only thing I managed to do is reinstall kk via flashtool
Xperia Z1 Compact .386 rooted
...nothing works.
I have almost everything installed: adb.exe (800kb from 25.07.2013), fastboot.exe (157kb from 25.07.2013), Flashtool (Version 0.9.14.0 built on 12-02-2014 22:45:00), Xperia Companion (Vers. 1.1.24.0), Z1 Compact drivers (device manager says: Sony sa0109 ADB Interface Driver Vers. 2.0.10.30018 from 13.05.2013).
Nothing can connect my Win10-PC via USB3.0 to my phone, it always starts (when I connect it to USB by holding wether Vol+ or Vol-) with red (...pink?) light for about 4sec, followed by showing "SONY" - end of anything.
I'm desperate :crying:
Do you get the green led light when connected in flash mode (vol down when connecting)?
Xperia Z1 Compact LP .386 rooted
No, only red light, than "SONY" without any vibration...
May it be, that usb-debugging was off, whenn I did format data?

I don't think it's related..
Maybe you don't have the right drivers on pc?
Xperia Z1 Compact LP .386 rooted
The fastboot or flashmode mode should always work - regardless of what you did regarding ROMs or setting or wipe etc.
It is there to save your phone if you messed up.
It is strange that you cant enter these modes. Normally its really a driver issue and you PC does not recognize your phone.
But it seems that you have tried installing them already.
Just to make sure... Your phone charges normally when you plug it in right? So it cant be a broken cable or broken micro-USB connection on your phone?
Also make sure your phone is really shut down - try resetting it with the red button next to your SIM-card slot.
Your volume buttons were fine before right?

BINGO!!! ...the usb-cable, it's a pretty new one, but I know, the Z1c doesn't like every cable
Now I can enter Flashtools flash and fastboot mode.
I think I lost almost everything on my Z1c, even my TWRP, don't I?
What is now for noobs like me the best way to install this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/stock-14-6-1-236-customized-lollipop-5-t3264557

Thank you all for your input!
It was the usb-cable which did load my Z1c and in this case (no other data on the phone) light the purple LED and display the "SONY"-logo - but nothing else!
All the future problems are more on the software-side (my head) than on the hardware (the cable)...
Haha glad you sorted it out. I don't know why but I also have USB cables in my collection that just won't work with my Z1C... But now you know
If you need further help in restoring with flashtool you can also look up this thread for some helpful links : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2631291
Try to get your hands on a .108 firmware (I always keep one on my PC in case I f*** up ). They are easy to root with EasyRoot and from there you can flash dualrecovery. With TWRP you are good to access your backups or flash anything you want again.

Hi everyone. Just like in the title of my post. I've just bought a TP-LINK NEFFOS Y5L smartphone, and I started to looking information, how I can get root for this device. And I found it:
https://morfitronik.pl/android-root-smartfona-neffos-y5l-tp-link/
Sad that this site is`t online anymore, but u can find it on github or gitlab.
I've flash this recovery, and it's working fine. The next step to root was to download the zip package from the chainfire site (currently abandoned, but u may use magisk from xda) :
https://download.chainfire.eu/1021/SuperSU/SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip
Latest MAGISK:
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v16.0/Magisk-v16.0.zip
Well, I've done it. It's working, and I have root on Android 6.1.
Here it is :
View attachment recovery-neffos-y5l-tp-link-twrp.apk
u will have to change extention of file from *.apk to *.img due to xda registration of size file uploaded.
Tutorial how to do this:

Hello,
I am a bit new... It seems I can't use flashboot mode.
I have DL ADB, then when I key : /adb devices, I see my Y5L.
Then I try to relaunch my device by pressing the VOL + / Restart button => I reach a picture of android and 3 japanese (or chinese characters).
When I plug the device to my PC, it seems that nothing happen (like it was not recognised by the PC).
Du you have any idea?
Best regards
Hello. It is a very annoying thing, but also very simple to solve. If u see the broken robot when u trying to enter to recovery, u must push and hold power button and short press vol+. But if you want to go to recovery or fastboot mode, u don't have to power down your phone. Just go to cmd (or whatever) console and write:
" adb reboot recovery" to boot up you device in recovery mode or
"and reboot bootloader" to boot into fastboot mode
Seeia.
Greetings!
The custom TWRP link does not seem to work as it should be. Either that or I am missing something
Could you please re-upload the recovery file?
Thanks!
"edit: I found it"
Can someone write a tutorial please, it's the first time i try to root with TWRP and i don't understand if the bootloader method for emample is from the device or from the pc because i can enter to the official android device (Y5L ANDROID 6.0.1 ) recovery menu but when i choose to boot at bootloader the phone freeze at the logo. Thanks a lot for any help.

1. pressing the VOL up + Power button => reached a picture of android and 3 Chinese characters (means no command !)
2. pressing again the VOL up + Power button => then you will reached recovery mode.
I had seem this polish method but I get afraid because there is no method to recovery to original rom.
I hope to see a custom rom in next days.
thanks
Hi, I'm trying to install the custom bootloader but after running:
abd reboot bootloader
the phone gets stuck on the tp-link logo.
Trying with volume-up + power shows the broken android logo, from there, holding power + vol-up gets me to recovery but neither fastboot nor adb detect the device. Selecting the "reboot to bootloader" option there ends in the same lock on the tp-link logo.
(I did activate the "unlock bootloader" in developer options.)
Any ideas on how to proceed? thx in advance.

Yeah i also had this problem, open at the android menu your phone and make sure you have enable developer settings and USB Debugging, install Wondershare MobileGo at your pc ( you don't need to install the app at your phone) and connect your phone with the pc, wait to find the drivers at the charge usb selection and after that swap from your phone to all 4 settings of usb connections, mobilego will download 4 drivers total and after that it will read it.
I cant post a link but if you have Chrome to translate from polish to english there is a new simple tutorial, go at the first link at the op post and at the site click at the red text at the beginning next to "twrp" text and translate to english for guide.

Yup this changed since Android 11 so connect with a cable to a computer and try.
Thanks that worked!
Or just use a usb-c bud ...
