[Q] Sony Xperia Tipo ... Bricked?! Please Help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Phone info:
Sony Xperia Tipo ST21i
Rooted
LOCKED Bootloader
Custom Firmware and Custom Rom: Gimlo
Xposed Framework Installed
Problem:
After my last reboot, phone is stuck at 'SONY' bootlogo. I am able to boot to CWM Recovery. On removing battery, phone would switch on automatically sometimes. But the main problem,, the phone doesn't go past the 'SONY' logo.
Edit: The phone charges(shows red led and the charging icon) on connecting to pc via usb.
'Might Be' Causes:
Everything had been working fine upto yesterday. Yesterday i was cleaning up my phone so..something might have happened yesterday. So all the things i did in chronological order(besides daily routine):
Uninstalled apps- Meme Generator Free, Township
Installed- Wakelock Detector and ran it once
Uninstalled Script- TweakDrypt(using Terminal Emulator)
enabled Xposed module for Greenify(free version)
Reboot!
And the phone has been like this since yesterday.
I haven't flashed any rom or anything..and i don't think it is a hard brick either..So will i have to use the flashtool to flash the stock firmware and rom?( I would like an alternative to preserve my data please!)
Solutions Tried:
→Google searches...only found suggestions regarding flashtool to flash the device stock
→At first, i went to CWM and took a nand backup of 'current state' of the phone. Then, I cleared cache and wiped dalvik cache. Rebooted, still it is stuck.
→Did a soft reset, "Power+volume up" until i get 1 vibration..and then released it..no effect.
→I make weekly nand backups of my phone..so i tried restoring last week's backup. Even then it is stuck! I don't understand why would that happen...
Please help...If i have missed out to mention any detail, please do tell and i will send it.

[Q] bootloop after root?

i have just got an xperia s, and unlocked the bootloader through sony's site today. i then flashed the pre-rooted firmware, the correct one for my model, and am stuck in a bootloop. I have had android phones before, and always been able to get out of messes like this, but sony's system seems to be somewhat different from my previous Moto. can anyone tell me how to possibly fix this? many thanks
Flash another firmware with flashtools.

thanks, currently downloading the 73 version to test. I have an issue with flashtools though, and fastboot in general on my PC, the drivers do not seem to have installed, as when i try fastboot i get blue led for aprox. 5 seconds, then reboot into the bootloop. fastboot works fine on my mac though
Must install them manually. You open the device manager, right clicking on the S1boot, update drivers. Then shows you which folder is the drivers. and voila.
thanks, ive got it to boot again, and tried various roms, but keep having the same wierd issues. first, everytime i boot i have to go through the xperia setup completely from scratch again, as if the phone is brand new.
secondly, im using doomkernel v4a, and have installed the wifi modules as specified, but turning on wifi causes an instant crash and then reboot, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a short freeze
thirdly, somehow 'phone memory' is completely full, whatever i do. Internal memory, when the phone is completely empty, only shows as 25gb, but phone memory is totaly full, regardless of weather i clear app data/cache etc
any help would be greatly appreciated XD
hello,
you must flash doomkernel v1 or v1a , then after modules wifi for v1, before flashing v4a ,
(sorry for my bad english)

Q: WT19a random wifi disconnect and Custom ROM flashing problem

Hi!
I have 2 problems with my lww.
The first one is the wifi. It disconnects at random times even having the wifi config to always on and using the wifi high performance wigdet. I go then to the wifi list and i can't see my home network. I have to press scan a couple of times to make it appear again. Is there any fix for that?
I am using stock kernel (cant unlock booloader) and flashed 4.0.4 stock ROM.
The other problem is that i have tried like 4 or 5 different cusrom ROMs. All of them supporting locked bootloaders but they always get stuck at Sony logo at first boot or enter a bootloop. When they enter to the bootloop i get to cwm but i dont know what to do for fixing it. And when it gets stuck in the sony logo i cant even get to cwn and i am forced to connect again to flashtools and start all over again to have rooted ICS...
Any help would be very appreciated!!
PS: any other owner of lww notices a slight noise coming through speakers while playing quiet music through them?
Sorry for my english! I'm fron Chile

Before you flash the ROM you have to wipe data/factory, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik-cache. Additionally i do "Format /system," . If you not wipe you got the bootloop. Apart from that you need to use correct ROM and recommended kernel.
That wifi disconnecting issue i also face, but i can't identify what's the correct reason.
Oh. I forgot to tell that even formatting and cleaning dalvik, cache, system, etc. I get bootloop or stuck at sony logo. I double checked to install Real ICS for locked bootloaders but always stuck or bootloop.

Xperia Z2 stuck in bootloop with generic android / cyanogen runs without problems..

Hi, I have a strange problem with my Xerpia Z2..
After flashing a cyanogen mod to test it out.. it`s not possible for me to get a working generic Android system anymore.
The smartphone stuck in a caint of "bootloop" or, if it start android at last, it reboots after a short while automaticly.
The bootloop is like this:
Screen: Shows 10 sec. sony-logo -> than 2 sec. black screen -> than 5 sec. sony-logo -> than it starts from beginning..
The bootloop-lenght varied until it starts finally into android.. sometime it doesn`t come to that point, and it reboots for a very long period (until I get annoyed and shut it down)
I have trying the following things to solve that issue:
- Flashing several stockroms wirh flashtool (D6503_17.1.2.A.0.314_Generic DE.ftf / D6503_23.0.1.A.0.167_Customized DE.ftf)
- trying to reset the hole phone with the xperia "emma" tool
- trying to reset the hole phone with the pc companion software
.. in my opinion, the problem could be find in the bootloader/recovery.. I don`t think it`s a hardware issue, because cyanogen mod is still runs without problems. Maybe some cyanogen remains are still leftover in the bootloader, that don`t work with generic android versions.. that`s what I can imagine. (but i`m not an expert
I don`t get why flashing the phone doesn`t solve the issue., it almost seems that the flash process don`t touch the bootloader, to overwrite it with stock parameters (?) or does not fix that area which is responsible for that issue..
Phone status at this time:
Not root - not unlocked - no backup of TA - DRM Keys (The guy that I bought that phone from, saddly doesn`t do a backup /
Before you flash the stock rom, are you clearing the Dalvik cache?
Whenever I've been through instructions on flashing roms, that always seems to be a step, but I didn't see you mention doing that before flashing.

One year old LG L70 Dual Sim (D325f 0814) random system errors

Hi!
My girlfriend has an LG L70 Dual Sim (D325f 0814) phone. About one moth ago, the phone started suddenly restarting. After one restart this image showed in the screen. hZZZttZZZps://wwZZZw.dropZZZbox.com/s/teklp3uZZZpaz6f5mz/20170118_ZZZ194100.ZZZjpg?dl=0
I have never used other battery in the phone. (replace all triple ZZZ to nothing and you can have the correct link)
After that I tried a factory reset. But it did't helped. After the reset, the phone always shows me com.android.systemui has stopped error message. So i decide to install other room. I don't know, other ROM solve this problems, but I don't have any other idea. So Where can I find ROM for this phone? And how can I install it? I only need a working phone, i don't want android 5 or any costum things. The phone currently running Android 4.4.2 (kernel version 3.4.0+ build number KOT49I.A1464618841)
Please help!
Thanks.
Normally installing mods or messing with system causes this errors
Ultimate solution is reflash the ROM using stock ROM
You can download the ROM using google and flash it via stock recovery
This will solve your problems
Thanks for the answer The Hard Gamer. I install D32510F_00 firmware from csmgdl.lgmobile.com. The com.android.systemui message goes away. Now i wait for other system error messages.

Leagoo m8 pro random rebooting problem

hi tech gurus, am having problem with this device, the device details are:
name: leagoo m8 pro
Android version: 6.0
ram:2GB
ROM:16Gb
chip: Mt6737M
processor:armv7
SDK:23
HOW THE PROBLEM STARTED
on the night of the day I bought the phone I decided to root it because I wanted to change the font and of course use xposed modules, I successfully rooted the phone, changed font successfully with ifont, now the only left is to install xposed framework, so I read all the info at the xposed thread, to know more about my device I downloaded CPU z, and mobile uncle, which said my device arm version is just arm.
I down xposed flashable zip in the arm category, which is v87, and it's The latest their till now.
I flash the zip file, everything went successfully via twrp v3.1.1 then I clicked reboot, phone switched off came on and displayed the white leagoo text, it was stucked there for like 12mins I coudnt wait any longer, so I removed and inserted the battery booted into twrp and wiped the cache, data, system and davilk cache, nvram, and click reboot but twrp said no ROM installed.
Guys I have no other option thab to flash the stock ROM, which I did, am sure I did it the right way, I used
sp flash tool v5.1
leagoo freemos V3.06(downloaded from leagoo website)
after flashing it showed green good mark, I rebooted the phone, as soon as the setup screen appeared the phone rebooted again..... till it long enough to allow me finish the setup.
guys as am typing with the phone am still experiencing the rebooting problem.
sometimes it will just random reboot,
or music will crack and reboot especially when the screen is off.
I have tried every thing I could, such flashing custom recovery even flashing earlier official stock ROM of the phones all to no avail
pls tech gurus help me, I just bought this phone
the highest up time I ever got on this phone is just 9 hours
thanks
