Just boot to TWRP and flash SuperSu zip. Wipe data if needed. You can't boot without root
If you are on the Sony logo bootloop, press "vol-" until next reboot. Don't plug USB to Pc when doing that or you will boot in flashmode.

Can you boot the device in flashmode? Are you sure that you used the good rootpack?

You probably have a problem with drivers, you don't need to enable debugging or unknown sources to flash in flashmode.

Don't be a troll, this phone is great but Flashtool IS the problem. You tried to ask the author of the soft? I think no!
You know that some Xperia C and M have similar problems?

:crying:I think the problem was from flashtool..too many user brick their xa ultra right now..

[Q] How to flash recovery without USB debugging mode activated on a bricked Nexus S?

Hi,
I had flashed the NexusXperia ROM on my Nexus S just recently. After trying it out I restored the stock ICS 4.0.4....
For some reason the phone keeps on showing the HD bootscreen continously without starting up....
I thought of clearing the dalvik and re-installing via restore however now that it's not got any recovery neither is it being detected on my pc....
I remember deactivating the USB debugging mode and probably this could be the reason it's not being detected....
Is there a way to flash recovery without debugging mode switched ON or is there a way to simply switch ON the USB debugging mode from bootloader screen....
ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED ON THIS....
I have tried on windows 7 as well as on Ubuntu....but the device is not detected....thanks in advance.....
- DarKmentoR
On the Nexus S, holding Volume Up while turning on the power will load the bootloader and from there you should be able to use fastboot to install a custom recovery using fastboot. You should not need USB debugging enabled for this to work.

Just keeps on waiting for the device....adb not able to detect the device too
The phone is in the bootloader mode and fastboot doesn't detect it? Sounds like it is completely broken then, your only option may be the UnBrickable Mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566475
Ok...i can see a "FASTBOOT MODE" written in red when i switch on using Vol+ & Power....
Which mode is it ? Fastboot or Download....?

Fastboot is the mode you need to be in for fastboot.exe to detect the phone. Put it into that mode and try to flash the recovery with fastboot.exe using the command you posted above.
I have HUAWEI P smart. I am searching for a firmware for flash my phone.

[Q] XZU Bootlooping NO Recovery LOCKED Bootloader

Hey guys,
I just experimented with some sound libraries and so on...
now my device is bricked.
I don't get into recovery (pink led, not turning on), flashtool does not allow me to reflash the stock-rom, and fastboot-flashing also doesn't work, because my bootloader is locked.
Is there any possibility to unlock the bootloader from outside, without having the stock-rom running?
Or any other possibility to get this thing working again?
Would be really happy, if someone has an idea
Thanks

Flashtool (EMMA) says, my bootloader is locked -> I have to unlock it but thats not possible without a running system. for flashtool I just pressed vol down and put the cable in like it is described everywhere.
for fastboot I did the same, but vol up. Then the LED turns blue, but I can't even reboot it via fastboot command.
USB-Debugging is also deactivated, so I don't know how to access the phone.
EDIT: just tried again: reboot over fastboot works, but erasing or formatting is not allowed. Flashing not possible because there is not enough space it says
EDIT II: ok, just got the bootloader unlocked via fastboot. now trying to get the stock system on to enable usb debugging and flash custom rom then
EDIT III: just solved it. how? 1. Unlock bootloader via fastboot 2. let EMMA do a service 3. enjoy again

Need help with bricked Redmi Note 3 Pro (Kenzo/Snapdragon)

Dear Community,
I got my Note 3 Pro Snapdragon Version today and I tried unlocking the bootloader, installing root and TWRP.
Unfortunately after I installed TWRP, WiFi didnt work anymore so I wanted to go back to where I was before.
i tried flashing the GlobalRom with the MiFlash Tool but somehow I'm now stuck with a bootloop.
The phone starts up and shows the MI Logo but doesnt go on. I tried booting TWRP temporarily via fastboot commands so that I can try to flash flashable zip files
but it doesnt let me execute "fastboot boot xyz.img" anymore because my device is locked.
I would really love to hear any solutions or ideas. I dont want any root or something anymore. If someone has an idea Im very happy!!!
thanks a lot in advance and tell me if you need any more infos

1. keep vol + and vol - pressed while connecting USB to enter adb mode
2. check if phone is connected with "adb devices" in command line, if phone shows up, enter "adb reboot edl"
3. now you can flash via MiFlash

First of all, HUGE thanks for your fast answer!
Unfortunately I couldnt get this to work. Since I am stuck at the Logog screen here is what I tried:
Pressing both volume buttons while Logo Screen and plugging USB.
Pressing both colume buttons while fastboot screen is up.
These two didnt enter adb mode, I guess because of the bootloop I'm in
I also tried antering recovery mode with volume up + power button. Pressing both volume buttons didnt help either but when I am in recovery like that it shows my device in adb as "sideload" device.
Maybe that helps ? Can you give further advice or am I doomed?
My idea would be: Is it possible to reflash the device completely only usinf fastboot? The only thing I seem to be able to enter is fastboot...
Is there a way from fastboot to "working phone" ?
or maybe through the "adb sideload" state?
thanks a lot in advance!
Paul
EDIT
tried installing via "adb sideload xyz.zip" command but after shortly showing a status bar on phone screen it aborted and said "Total xfer: 0.00x" on PC screen .
Also: I read "adb reboot edl" brings you to download mode so you can flash something. Tried it but the phone just rebooted the normal system, so it stuck on Logo again...
search miui forum for unbrick, there is 2 or 3 method without opening your device

I Had The Same Issue Brother ! There are only 2 Things which you can do now .
1. Test Point Method to enter EDL
2.Give it to Service Center . I Gave Mine to Service Center ,They Fixed it in 30 mins or less and it was free

Can I do the test point thing myself or is it risky?
What kind of service center? A general mobile phone repair shop or a Xiaomi special one?

I've been facing the same (or a similar?) problem about a week ago but managed to get out. Knowing me for having a head like a sieve I made some notes, sadly quite rudimentary
Did you try to flash with MiFlash after "adb reboot edl"? If I remember rightly after "adb reboot edl" you got the logo like booting another way, but the light is blinking red. Then I could flash via MiFlash.
I'm quite sure that if you get a "reboot" after entering "adb reboot edl", your phone will be in edl mode.
I will try that this evening when I am at home again and report. Thanks

Unfortunately this doesnt work. Phone reboots and shows MI Logo but red light doesnt blink and MiFlash doesnt recognize any devices.
Do you have another idea? :/
How did you unlock the bootloader, via official permission or that unofficial hack?

Only options you have right now are:
1) using test points method which is a but cumbersome and voids warranty if you care about that.
2) go to a xiaomi service center of you have any nearby.
It is hard bricked.
So there is absolutely no option to unlock bootlader via adb sideload or fastboot ?

Apparently, no! Whenever using unofficial methods, read precautions carefully and you missed all as I can see. Wait if someone can help you out.

That sounds nice and easy. I already applied for official unlock.
But: do you know if u can use the official unlock now? I can only access fastboot and adb sideload mode. Is it possible to activate official unlock from there? Or do I need a working ROM rather?
I would have thought that official unlock doesn't work from fastboot /adb sideload...

I have the same problem. I made the same mistakes as shisaya24. I have followed every procedure for unbricking and nothing works. I even applied for an unlock code and got it from Xiomi. I used their mi-unlock app which requires fastboot (pwr/vol-) but it gets to 50% and bombs out. It states it can't verify the phone. Can anyone please help me??

cannot detect device after rebooting bootloader via adb reboot bootloader

Need help i cant detect devices after going in fastboot bootloader via adb reboot bootloader, after that cant detect device , i have tried every thing installing adb driver again and updating usb drivers , need help to root phone. its stuck at oppo pass fastboot verify ok ... something like that...please help
Install realme flash tool and jnstall driver
If you see "oppo pass fastboot verify ok" it means you are in fastboot
To reboot back to os press powerbutton+vol. Up
To unloack bootloader:
1.i assume you tried fastboot devices command and you get nothing or <waiting for any device >error. If so open device manager(windows) and check for any unknown devices or android device showing a pop-up error near its icon.
If so you have a driver issue. Mine didn't go away even after updating windows 10 drivers (I had to install windows 7 to unlock it !)

thank you for your help my bootloader wasn't unlock it is now thanks a lot
It appears your device's bootloader is locked. Try:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
If that doesn't help, search for a guide on how to unlock bootloader for your specific brand.
It also looks like don't really know what you are doing. Make sure you are following trusted guide. If no, I'll be happy to help.

well i did installed custom roms few time but i dont know much, i did unlock bootloader now the problem is i do install custom recovery twrp and it do installed and rom manager shows that custom recovery is installed but pressing volume down + power button just shows fastboot logo and it restart my phone, and with command "
adb reboot bootloader" i am able to boot into fastboot mood and when i go to recovery from their it open stock recovery instead of twrp
Stolen from my guide:
7. Go into fastboot mode
8. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
9. fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
10. fastboot reboot recovery
12. Sometimes recovery doesn't want to stick as a permanent one. To test it, hold the power button and select "Reboot to recovery". If you reboot to TWRP, you can move on, but if you reboot to stock one, flash recovery using fastboot again and from recovery flash recovery again (sounds crazy, right?). I won't give you instructions on this, research it yourself. Make sure guide you will find is for your device and your recovery.
