I just damaged my new XZ

First I unlocked bootloader with DoomLord method. Then did root. Then for same stupid reason I decided to relock it with flashtool for ZX beta2 and it didn't booted. It vibrates when i push the power button, but nothing appears on the display. Then I did the unlock and root procedure with fastboot on SDK and the phone responded to be connected and commands succeeded but nothing appeared on the display. Please anybody help. What I need to do? Fastboot seems to work. When i plug in to charge the red led does not stay on - it blinks

Can you flash a firmware with flashtools?
Do you have enough battery?

Close flashtool. Then download and install EMMA (official Flash Tool for Xperia devices) from Sony (https://www.google.ch/#hl=de&safe=o...le+emma+download&oq=sony+mobile+emma+download) and reflash your device with it.
Pay close attention to the instructions on the download page as you need to copy a couple files around before it works.
You need to boot to bootloader mode to flash. This achieved by totally turning off the device and holding VolDown only (not power) while connecting it to your pc.

Now I succeeded to connect phone to EMMA but it says locked phone. As I used relock option on Flashtool beta2 now how can i unlock it again? I tried DoomLord method and it gives me error write 'boot' failed. I did also the unlock process from Sony mobile provided and in the command window it says 'okay finished' but bootloader is stil locked

Excellent so far, helps narrowing down the problem.
EMMA only flashes unlocked devices, I figured you are unlocked so I recommended EMMA.
If you're locked, simply get Sony PC Companion and do a "repair" with it. Run PC Companion, boot up the phone, connect it, once PC Companion says connected click "Update firmware" or so. It should then say you're on latest firmware already and asks if you want to perform a "repair". Do so.
Just reread your post. Your device isn't booting, then of course the above doesn't work. You may try, I believe PCC also works with a device in flashmode.
However, you may also download SUS http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/ and try with that. Its the counterpart of EMMA for locked devices.
Shut down your device (hold VolUp and Power for about 15 seconds, the device should vibrate 3 times in a row). Start SUS, select XZ and when it tells you to, connect your device holding VolDown ONLY. It should then do it's thing.

The unlocking and rooting part is not that scary as long as you have no power outage
The problem here was the relocking of the bootloader, there is no known way for that, yet.

I got my phone back thanks to schaggo .
SUS preinstalled it which means that it had been properly locked with Flashtool beta2.
But then no way to unlock again as I tried both ways known here as EMMA asked me to do.
I've rooted my previous X10i and my chieneese tablet wm8650, installed custom ROMs many times
but when I saw the black screen on my brand new XZ I just freezed, couldn't make my brain working.
Now curious about the BE - is it lost with the first unlock or it's back now?
There were some demo videos and music which are gone now and maybe this means BE is no longer working.
I wonder if there's a way to port back BE as FeraVolt did for one of his ROMs

So is your phone locked now?

Yes, its lost with the initial unlocking of the bootloader. Maybe it will be ported, maybe not, no way to know at this time.
I still miss an information: yours is locked now, ok, but could it be unlocked again (unlock allowed:yes vs. unlockballowed:no)?

He already lost BE, DRM and stuff, why limit one self to the less convenient dealing with locked bootloader when an unlocked device offers more flexibility and ease of flashing?
Flashtool for Z beta 2, replace x10thingblah.jar (search flashtool thread), hit relock button, reflash stock with PC Companion/SUS/Flashtool, done.

I have rooting status : unknown
This was said to be a bug - already fixed I think
I haven't tried unlocking again because I'm not sure that yesterday's death of my phone is caused by the relocking
I'm gonna wait and stay on stock for a while to see if this phone works without any problems.
About the BE2 I really don't know what to think : I did some screenshot with XZ on/off and there's no difference.
Then did the same with X10i (FeraLab' s ROM with BE ported) and again didn't find a difference between all of the screenshots including XZ'

Maybe it doesn't work on your X10 either. On my Z, I can make out a difference, especially with the provided stock images, which are VERY colourful on purpose I suppose, to demonstrate the oversaturation of colours BE2 produces
But I may ask again:
1. you reflashed your phone with SUS or Flashtool
2. after the flash you did not root or try to unlock again
3. when checking now (fully stock) your unlock status is "unknown"?
I ask, because root with locked bootloaders also makes the status unknown.

ive got my phone stuck on the sony sign instaling a custom unlocked bootoader rom when my phone has locked boot loader any help atall
i had root and everything was working but after install it said to fix permissions when they were fixed i rebooted but its stuck on sony sign.
any help would be gratful.
do i need emma flash tool ? still waiting for the email so i can use it

I tried many ways, including restoring everyting with PCC, fully original stock without root, without unlock, but it still says "unknown".
Again, unlock with flashtool 2beta, OK says "unlocked yes". and relock again, "unknown", and unlock again, "yes", switching freely...
Whatever I do, BE2 is dead, forever.
Somehow there is only one thing for now, with the fake relock "unknown", PCC or US or even OTA can accept device updating or restoring.
So to get BE2 back or get "locked" status, we'd wait for devolpers to work out something.

The Japanese devoloper way of locked root will make the status "unlock not allowed", whether device locked or unloced, which is just false information, don't worry.

I think you have to unlock the Bootloader with adb.
If this wont work try to flash a other firmware.

try the fuse editing method, but it's likely your phone is permalocked by lg. they tend to do that when you send phone in for repairs.

Indeed, but if they did this to me I'd be demanding a new phone as they can't legally restrict you from unlocking the bootloader in the EU, especially once they put that option into the latest software versions.

people say i cant but then i find other places that have ways to do it then i spend days trying to do it (actully getting closer and closer) but then the end result is i have no rooted fone! Mainly because i cant complete the processes that there telling me to do. for example unlocking bootloader :/ WHAT A PAIN!!! and its still not done lol.
my phone details are....
Sony xperia Z1
Android Version (Now) 4.3 (Cuz i was told i was able to unlock bootloader on this version (Was i wrong!))
Build number: 14.2.A.0.290 (Same again,Been updated in my process of trying to root i think)
Dont no what else you guys need to help but them things come up often.
Please can someone just relive my stress and tell me if i can root or not, i would be very gratefull. if i can root then could someone also point me in the right direction to how to do this... simply step by step instructions (Pretending i have a new fone and a new laptop, needing to download EVERYTHING from fresh)

You can root your Xperia Z1. I don't see why you're struggling so much. You need to downgrade to .534 to root your phone.

Yes, you can root your phone with 4.3, without Unlock Bootlader.

Do i have to unlock my bootloader for any features on a rooted device? I only really want to root to get rid of those horrid bloatware apps, not really sure what else you can do with a rooted device yet but i want to learn. Last time i rooted a device was in the HTC Desire Z days haha.
Ive spent hours trying to follow Sonys instructions to unlock bootloader but it doesnt work so im hoping i dont need to.

No. You don't have to. Unlock Bootlader is needed only to flash Custom Roms with Custom Kernels. With Locked Bootlader you still can flash Custom Roms with Stock kernels and get Root.

Back again, still with no root or unlocked bootloader. Bootloader i can unlock but it wont let me because it says "Waiting for Device" all the time. ive followed the Sony guide to unlocking bootloader untill the bit it tells me to plug the device in fastboot mode. then it says the comp will want to install some drivers... point the computer to the Google File/USB_Driver,
1. my comp doesnt even ask me to install drivers when plugged in.
2. when i point the phone to that file through "Device Manager" it says there isnt any drivers there. im guessing this is the reason why im getting the "Waiting for device" problem.
Anymore ideas?

I think you should carefully read well all the tutorials because you getting confused.
If you do a Factory Reset you just reset your phone to how it was at the beginning and this will wipe all your data. (Apps, Data exc..)
Factory Reser have nothing to do with Bootloader or Root.
If you Unlock Bootlader, you will unlock permanently until you will not decide to re-lock it.
If you Root your phone you Root permanently. The only way to lose root is to flash a stock FTF not rooted.
Click many Thankx for my patience!

P10 not turning on after update!!!

Hello.
i have a Huawei P10. [VTR-L29 9.0.1.159(C185E3R1P9)]. I updated it using hisuite and firmware finder via erecovery 2 weeks ago, then recently i tried to check for updates in hisuite, an update is available, with the same build number(developer) with size of 880mb and i updated it, after completion of update, phone restarts, verify installation packages and proceed with update installing, after 99% phone restarts again and not turning on itself, i tried manually turning it on, not successful. so I tried plugging it in my computer, hisuite detects it, and system recovery is the only option. i tried but it failed, and should be taken to the service center.
What should I do?
-my phone was purchased abroad
-warranty expired a year ago
-i dont have the box of it and the imei infos.
If anyone can help me, please I need it. THANKS

Hope that bootyloader still working, else there's a chance for you to get another phone.
If I had to go thru what you have today... I would try to flash Emui 9 based RR or Los just to revived while enjoying the pure android interface.
If all else fails... Go back to basic maybe there is a thing or two that you've missed

You can try flash stock recovery & try to get it to flash the stock fw from it.

I don't see any articles on for unpaid versions to unlock the bootloader. The only safe & easy is thru dcunlocker.
Hav u tried boot to erecovery & see if it can recover that stock firmware??

I tried erecovery as you said but I failed to do so, the only hope I think is just the fastboot mode. also, I would like to ask if what option or how many credits should I get in DC Unlocker?

I spent roughly not more than 5usd for a code & that's about it. Nothing more... Now I'm happily unlocked that bootyloader :good:
I think the only ways is thru pc or with a small payment at the huawei service centre to get that firmware up and running again.

is this the only required credits to unlock bootloader? see attached photo
and after you pay for credits, you will get unlock code? and use that unlock code to unlock bootloader in fastboot mode?

Are you sure that you downloaded the unlock tool of 'Rog phone 3"?
If you did, then your phone or the way you do has a problem

I downloaded the bootloader unlock app on the website, and I touched 'unlock' and my phone rebooted.
I needed to select the language and storage was cleaned also.

Been posted NUMEROUS times guys. Your phone was unlocked, and relocked by the seller. Theres NO WAY to Unlock again. Get a refund, buy a proper phone.

Ok so I just upgraded to android 11 and want to unlock the bootloader but while doing it through the app it says failed to unlock the device why is that?
Also I have never unlocked my device before it's the first time I'm trying to do so..

Do a backup of your data you don't wanna loose and flash raw file with A10 available here in ROG3 section. Then your unlock tool will work. After you unlock you can update and restore data. Bootloader remains open until you lock it again with abd or app.
