Sony Official Flash Tool - Recovering from soft brick

I have 6833 and have flashed custom rom and wanted to revert back to stock but the falsh tool and the FTFs provided in the below thread kept failing and was stuck in a boot loop mode. http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z-ultra/development/ftf-depository-sony-firmware-releases-t2829387

I kept googling and stumbled upon the below official Sony flashtool and to my surprise the tool worked amazingly smooth and restored the phone to factory settings. It gave an option of Kitkat or Lollipop update and I chose Kitkat just to make sure it is reset as it was. The download comes with instructions and is very simple. hope this helps. You don't need to put phone in download mode or anything, just connect the phone to your pc while it is turned off and the tool will automatically recognize the phone and will reset.

BTW: The flashtool in the above link is awesome as well it worked several times when I had to return to stock after flashing roms etc. It worked at least 20 times before failing to reset (tried several different FTFs) which resulted in searching for an alternative and ran into the sony tool otherwise the falshtool above is awesome as well.

Hope this helps.

3. download a newer flashtool.

Hello.

I have sony Xperia Z Ultra 6883. I had it from 2014. In the summer of 2022 i ran into problem. I Cannot boot the phone. The last thing i saw i think was an andorid robot on its back or side. The phone has power and i can recharge it to 100%. I can get it to attempt to load up by using the Power button and volume up key. The Sony logo shows up but the phone never fully boots, it then just goes blank blackish screen. But not totally black dead. I have tried reinstalling a stock sony rom using Flashtool to revieve phone. I got drivers installed using advanced startup to aloow undigitally signed drivers. but i cant manage to get the stock rom installed. My attempt to install stock rom fails. I have pasted below the log file from flashtool when i try and install the rom. What am i doing wrong. Please help save phone.

Is there a way to activate WCDMA only on ROM "Super Jelly Bean 6" ?

Thanks.

BTW:

I would ask in the Thread for this Image (Development Forum), but because of the stupid rule (newbie) of this Website I'm not allowed.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheHaso:
Ye, activate widget toggle 2g/3g.

Scroll down to network mode and enable 2g/3g only

Now use the toggle to set 3g only

Ps. 2g = gsm. 3g=wcdma
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McBane87:
Which Widget do you mean.

All Widgets I can find on Store are leading only to the networks menu.

And in this network menu I'm not able to activate 3g-only. There is ni menu-point for this.

Only the point "2g-only" is there.

On original ROM at this point was that option....
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheHaso:
Yes, i ment the widgets is settings-system-notification drawer

[About XDA developers] eagleeyetom:
Because you have asked for the best and most stable ROM and this is a no no question on XDA.
[About XDA developers] Dom182:
It's not true!!! I know I can't do it... I've never asked about the best rom or more stable rom! I've just asked for an advice about a stable that no need to unlock bootloader! Never "the best or most"...please could I have my topic back? I need it...
[About XDA developers] Dom182:
I don't remember well the title, if it's "stable" you can change it...I need the names of the ROMs...please!

[About XDA developers] doctor_droid:
Buddy every rom has its pros (n cons...:p)

Read the first post in every rom thread u have for ur device.. then decide which ones suits u best...

That aint difficult right?

And why u want a list of roms when u already have them arranged in development section?
[About XDA developers] eagleeyetom:
I wasn't the one who deleted your thread. Also asking for stable(ish) ROM is a bad idea. Feel free to visit the development section where you can find tons of ROMs ready to flash. It's really not that difficult, try it :)

P.S. Also you can't access your thread, because it's deleted.
[About XDA developers] Dom182:
Reading the first post of each ROM, you find in each one: "Best and smoothest ROM ever!"...so how can you choose it just reading first post?!
[About XDA developers] Dom182:
I know, with my smartphone I do it and I like do it! But that topic was for my girlfriend's phone and I've underlined that just because of this I can't try ROMs, so I ask the forum for an help...I wanted be sure to flash a light rom without the need of having change, nothing more! Anyway thank for your attention
[About XDA developers] Deadly:
exactly! dont read first posts.. read posts after 2 pages and read until around 20 pages if you want to be sure that its fine.. and if its a old thread, read last 20 pages to know its current rom status.. usually it will give you a vague idea on how it is.. or search term "bugs" and you will see all kind of posts reporting various bugs.. read around 4-6 posts after each bug report to find solution for it if you have same issue..
[About XDA developers] doctor_droid:
Read the features ..not the tag lines..
[About XDA developers] Dom182:
You know better than me that only flashing and testing a ROM you can see if is good or not...not reading what people write in the features... Anyway I learned the lesson! Thanks
[About XDA developers] doctor_droid:
mate what others will tell u is their point of preference... :) if I like cm I will ask u to choose cm.. if u ask someone else.. he will say to go for stock based rom...

In a nut shell ..

If u want speed smooth ui (poor battery no fm radio) go for cm

If u want stable rom plus fm radio plus stock look .. go for a stock based rom

Hi guys!

About 2 weeks ago I started learning about Android app development and decided to share with you what I have learned, from where and in which sequence. I will paste here my plan of learning by steps so you can follow it too.

Do you know good guide, book, tutorial or etc.? Post it here, probably I will add it in guide.

Note:

So this is our goal(what we need to learn or do):

1. Java (key moments)

2. XML

3. SQLite

4. JDBC

5. Android

Step 1: Java

Step 2: XML

I think the problem is, that you were on stock rom and put some mods on the internal sd card. Now you updated to cm 10.1 and you are able to find the old mods on your sd card in your recovery, but if you transfer new ones you cannot see them in recovery. (am I right?)

probably the recovery has the wrong sd card location, so you have to change it. (cm roms have another sd card mount)

This might sound dumb but I hated custom 4.2 ROM's so I wanted to go back to 2.3.6 as it is fast. I had JW4 in my PC and I installed it with repartition and it installed but bootlooped even after I factory reset and cleared cache. I got JW6 later and installed but it bootlooped too.

I first tried with repartition and then without repartition on both firmwares but no help. :crying:

Hello everyone,

I just rooted my phone yesterday. And now my battery is drining very fast ..before rooting its 1% in 6-7 min ......now it is draining 1% in 3-4 min. Can any one help me plzz
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Just rooting the phone is unlikely to do this, have a look at what else you installed recently.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] koniakki:
Before rooting the draining was around 1% every 6-7 minutes? Thats doesnt seem right. Something was wrong before the root.

1% every 6-7minutes equals to around 10hours battery life. Although it depends on the usage, I still think that is something was wrong already.

Don't forget Li-ion batteries like in our Mega, need to be above their 0% charge(3.3Volts) at ALL times. Do a full discarge(100%-0%-100%) once a month.

So try to keep the phone above 20-30% all times and recharge to 80-90% when possible. :good:
