I had the same problem, try booting into recovery and clearing your davit cache
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] qtype:
booting up

I just installed the the 2.8.12 version

after rebooting I still had to go into the recovery and wipe dalvik cache and only then did I manage to boot up...

Is there any way around that???

Dear,

Im newbie, and I come with an xperia z2 5.0.2 with no root.

Can i just flash this pre-rooted firmware using flashtool?

Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] yuskhayru:
No cant. U need to flash it via recovery.

Sent from my D6503
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
But unfortunately you cant flash via recovery when you are unrooted. Try flashing .314 firmware with flashtool then root and install nuts recovery. After that you can flash this one. If you have issues read this thread.

Cheers

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] beni8978:
You can't upgrade via ota while you have custom recovery I think.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kralcak:
so if I load original recovery I should be able to update ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] beni8978:
Yes,with locked bootloader and stock recovery

Actually, it didn't work, I tried just now.

I have locked bootloader and reverted to stock recovery and it didn't work, still says could not verify.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
You have to install via custom recovery from .314
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] MegaMedo:
Wait, you mean that I flash stock from .314 , then root it, then update to lolipop and then update to the latest patch, and after all of that I install custom recovery ??

Screw this man, I will wait to 5.1 and flash new rom, but can anyone tell me how to get rid of system update notification ??
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
No....you downgrade to 314 then root and install latest nut recovery and THEN you install this one and patch. As simple as that.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] MegaMedo:
Actually that is exactly what I did, but my phone is D6502, so maybe that might be the problem.

I flashed the zip mentioned on the first page. And now i am not able to turn off my phone.

Is anyone else facing the same issue.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
Try the following :

Oben the Lid which hieß the simcard and push the tiny Red Button Insider for three seconds.

If that dont work try Holding Power and vol+

Then Boot to recovery and wipe Cache and dalvik or download Existenz First and then make a systemwipe and a clean Installation

Then reboot

How long were you stuck at the 'SONY' welcome screen?

it's been a few minutes for me now and I think I may have done something wrong!

I was on a pre-rooted STOCK rom and then applied the update through TWRP 2.8.2.0...

it said something about /system not being able to do something but was too quick on the trigger and I just prested Reboot...

so now I'm not going further than the 'SONY' screen

any suggestions?

no, there is no recovery, so you cant flash it.. you need to install it manually, moving the files to the correct location and set the permssion.. you can do that with root explorer, is easy enough.. :good:

Could not find anything thats ready made for the S Pen and didn't quite like the G2 solution sooo...here it goes:

Get yourself a Lamy Safari, I had a couple of those at hand, they can be found pretty cheap, take out the nib and the ink feed, it comes out from the front. If you're not going to use it again, pull it out with pliers, so much easier. Drill, from the back side, the inside rib that holds the ink feed with a 7mm drill (thats 9/32 approx. but 1/4 inch will do). From the front side, there is a small piece inside of the ink feed holder that makes sure the ink feed system slides in one-way, got to get rid of that. I used a 6mm (15/64") drill from the front, wiggled it a little, that did it.

The great thing is that the inside of the back part of the LAMY case has some ribs that the S Pen slides right into and those ribs hold it in place and prevent the S Pen from twisting, they hold pretty tightly too.

Here are some pictures, it feels really good for those who are wondering:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/wacom-b...bled-tablets-black/8282053.p?id=1218868675100

the Lamy on amazon http://www.amazon.com/Lamy-Safari-Fountain-Pen-Charcoal/dp/B0002T401Y is $20.98, so I guess its better than paying $40.00 for the bamboo, but with the bamboo, if you got a good deal, you have the side button. Now I have 2 pens, the one included, and the bamboo, so its kind of nice when I need someone else to draw on the screen along with me

dont worry for your lollipop. even i have the same frustration on lollipop. so i contacted the xperia customer service . they said that lollipop for xperia z3 n z3c has been released officially in india and in around or less than a week, xperia z2 (d6502) is going to get the taste of lollipop.

so dont try any other methods and ruin for mobile. :) :D
