Method 3: my least favorite method. It didn’t work for me, but perhaps it will for you. Just try. We will be using the Sony PC Companion software… If you haven’t already installed it, do it from here: http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/

Make sure that your phone is powered off!

1. Disregard any instructions to connect the phone until you complete step 9

2. In the welcome screen you will see the different modules available for you including the "support zone" option. Click on "Start" below it.

3. On the next page Click on "Start" under "Phone/Tablet Software update"

At this point if you get an error stating that "unable to install update components" or "server is bussy" Please proceed to step 12. If you not see that error then continue with step 4.

4. The program will show a window saying "Could not find phone/tablet". Click on the option below that reads: "Repair my phone/tablet" the program will issue you a warning on the content that you will lose during the update

5. Choose the option to continue.

6. The program will issue a final message warning you of possible data lost during the update. Click on the checkmark and then on "Next/Continue".

7. After that, the program will download the necessary information (5 to 6 minutes) and it will present you with a list of phones.

8. Choose the Phone from the list then click on "next" then you will see a new section telling you how to connect the phone. (don't connect it yet)

At this point the phone must be off and disconnected from the PC.

9. Connect the cable to the PC not to the phone, then wile pressing and holding the volume down button, connect the cable to the phone and keep holding the volume button until the program says "the update of your phone has started..." (in some cases a message of "Installing drivers" will appear before the message of "the update of your phone has started..." is shown.)

10. If you failed to follow the steps correctly the phone will turn on and it will request that you "Proceed with the following steps, slide down the notification bar", If this happens disconnect the phone from the cable, turn it off and repeat from step 9).

11. If the phone is connected properly, PC Companion will proceed with the update ( It will tell you to let go of the back key) then wait for the update to finish and follow instructions on screen to disconnect the unit.

This tutorial doesn’t belong to me. It is fully copied from here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperi...ctions-using-Pc-Companion-Windows/td-p/249946

I do not own any rights, I just want to share to make it easier to use. Full credits go to Francis ;).

These methods should have helped you! If not, don’t hesitate to ask!

Hard bricked users, I can’t help you, sorry :(. If this doesn’t work, I am sorry.

Allright! That's it!

Just a few requests

1. If you seek help, don't quote the whole original post(OP). Please!

2. Don't make useless posts! If you want to thank me, press that button. If not, that's fine too. I don't mind.

3. Be polite and try to be as clear as possible in english. I know some of you don't speak it very well, but please, try your best!

Have a nice day, and I hope this helps!

for Androxyde’s mighty Flashtool to flash a stock .ftf. METHOD,

is there risk of bricking your phone????///

mine is currently in bootloop now... its in there since I was trying to unlock bootloader ..cmd says its successfully done but as I plugged it out its not starting since then - only bootloop
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Deleted member 5439257:
No. Flashtool will only fix the bootloop, not cause a new one.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
IMP- About drivers automatically getting installed (fastboot & flashmode drivers have to be manually installed)

1)works on Win7, Win8 not on XP

2)you must be connected to the internet for automatic driver install (& also it must be enabled in settings somewhere[if you get "serching for drivers" its enabled])

3)Win8 not reliable as windows 7 so......... 7 recommended

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

if you got bootloop you did it correctly .....flash stock ftf after that, you are ready
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Nikhil_android:
it worked

I used the first method (as that was the only option available for me) and it indeed solve the problem of bootloop.

here is what happened exactly:

I used Windows 7 32 bit pc as guide asks to avoid w8 -8.1.

followed steps exactly as said in guide but after connecting the phone (xperai E dual c 1605) there was error and flashing process was aborted but meanwhile some driver got installed. Its strange because I remember that I had installed all necessary driver (had connected my phone quite few times on this pc and had connected phone by vol down and connect to pc to get green light way as well ) and had also installed driver through flashtool as said in steps in tutorial..

anyway I rebooted my pc because I thought that would complete driver installation process and tried again but it did not worked and again some driver got installed but then this time instead of rebooting I tried again immediately and it worked this time.

So if u get error and instead some driver get installed just try again and most probably it will work

tip : use right click Run as admin on any exe file

PS : quote: . In the huge list, scroll down to the bottom and tick the ‘’flashmode’’ and ‘’fastboot’’ drivers. in latest flashtool version those options are right at top :o:silly:

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

I have flashed it and everything is fine but now I am not sure whether my bootloader is locked or unlocked .. I searched but there is no definate way to tell .. in xperia Z forum some asked to flash a kernel and if you get error it means its bootloader is locked (though I am not sure if it will harm phone and again cause bootloop or not :rolleyes: ( off cou2rse I wont flash xperia Z kernel on xperia E dual ))
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
type *#*#7378423#*#* in dialer (only on stock rom/ftf)

go to Service info > Configuration >

If "Bootloader unlock allowed" says "yes" its still locked

or

If Bootloader Unlocked says "yes" SUCCESS!!

or

If "Bootloader Unlock Status" says "yes" SUCCESS!!

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Deleted member 5439257:
This forum exists to help you, but we can't do that with this information!

Please answer this questions:

-Can you get into flashmode? Phone off, USB in computer then hold volume down button while inserting USB in phone. A green LED will show.

-When you start the phone, does it vibrate?

-Is there a red LED blinking when you start the phone?

-What have you done with your phone that it became bricked like this?

That should give us the information we need.'

MDL Bootloaders

Running custom GPE KitKat ROM.

Latest TWRP Recovery

Here's what happened.

Decided to try out Beanstalk kitkat. Installed fine, but ran into signal issues when I loaded up the FMLD modem. Had the same issues when switching back to MK2 modem.

before using beanstalk, decided to try out Philz touch CWM. Didn't really like it, I made a backup of my GPE ROM and went ahead and installed beanstalk then installed TWRP. Hit some issues with the ROM and decided to go back to GPE. Had to switch back to CWM to restore the GPE ROM.

Once it restored, I reinstalled TWRP. Went to boot to recovery and get the unauthorized software warning.

I can still boot into the ROM, and can boot to DL mode. I cannot boot or install TWRP. Seeing that I contact flash any Zip files I cannot even install CWM. Is there any way to fix this short of flashing back to stock MDL with Odin? I am stuck. Read for about 2 hours... Can't find any answers specific to this issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ted77usa:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
Just a thought. Are you sure the custom recovery you are trying to install is LOKI'd?. You can try to install OUDHS CWM via terminal commands.

I'm not sure if this has anything to do with your issue or not, but I read that people were having issues with certain versions of PhilZ CWM and the LOKI feature. They claim part of the issue involves corrupt backups that will not re-flash properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Never tried it, but could you dd the recovery image, possibly twrp.

dd if=/system/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

Do this at your own risk as I'm not that familiar with dd commands
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
Never had issues installing it before.

AFAIK, the recovery does not need to be loki'd the ROM does. The reason I say this is because I have never had any issues with older or newer versions of TWRP and because there are recoveries that Auto Loki a ROM that is being installed.

If it does need to be, then it should be loki'd because I am doing exactly the same thing to install it. The version is the same as before I changed to CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
I will attempt these ideas.
