Please help me, flashing my brothers x10 was soo easy with .ftf files, but I really dont know how to flash .img kernels or if my bootloader still locked

or should I wait until sony releases ICS update?
Rooting doesnt unlock the bootloader.. Is ur bootloader unlocked? how did u do it? SE has given official instructions on how to unlock the bootloader..
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
R u trying to flash this Kernel via the Flash tool software? I would suggest you to connect ur cell in the fastboot mode.
Switch it off and connect it to PC via USB by pressing the menu button (A blue LED will be seen)
U need to have working fastboot for that..
http://www.mediafire.com/?b2of5mpqi2bwczt
Extract this file and when u'll connect ur cell to PC as stated above, for the first time, it will ask for drivers... browse to the USB driver folder which is in the .rar file.
Once u r done with the unlocking bootloader, download the kernel img file and save it in the folder where fastboot.exe is.
Now open the command promt (if u r using windows 7, just press shift and do a right click, select open command prompt here from the menu) and go to the fastboot folder in the cmd. once u r on the path of fastboot. Enter following commands :
fastboot flash boot KernelFile.img (ur copied kernel file)
it will start flashing the kernel, once it is done, type following
fastboot reboot
Ur cell be restarted, when u'll c the kernel booting, keep pressing the volume button to go into the recovery mode..
I cant be held responsible if u damage ur device!!!
Hit thanks if I helped u..

I have got the same stuff (but on my xperia neo)
same exact problem.
The is nothing with bootloader or root, i guess
what my experience is, when i open with cmd in windows and type fastboot devices, i get none but in flashtool it recognised the device in fastboot.
Do you also have the same status as this ?

Seriously bro.. you're doing something wrong.. once install all the drivers and execute this command..

Put the unlock code in the command, enter it, while having phone in fastboot mode, and bootloader should get unlocked. That is only if you do have SIM-unlocked phone, that is no SIM-lock.

Rooting does not unlock your bootloader. They are not even related to each other!
There is a big difference between "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes" and "Bootloader unlocked: Yes". I think you understand the difference.
Unlock bootloader and then try to flash kernel again.

I was having the same problem and it was due locked bootloader
then i unlocked the bootloader and every thing goes fine
so, dudes, I had the same problem... beyond others
the situation is: YOUR BOOTLOADER LOOKS LIKE UNLOCKED,
BUT IT ISN'T!!
When you rooted your phone, the rooting method modificated this notification. But the true story is that you need to go to Sony website and claim your BOOTLOADER UNLOCK CODE.
Unless you do this, you'll never flash any thing on your smartphone.
Hugs and kisses!!
I cant flash everything on fastboot mode
i have usb enabled and bootloader unlocked latest
status: Bootloop, no recovery
only fastboot mode
help for a fix ... I bricked the tab
TRIED TO RETURN TO STOCK WITH FLASH ALL.BAT BUT ALL PARTITIONS END WITH UNKNOWN COMMAND

Are you using the latest FASTBOOT.exe?
Can you screenshot the CMD?
unknown commands usually indicate an error in the command not the execution of the command.

Good job
Hi there,
I have a problem i was try to root my phone.
Now i dont have access to ADB but only fastboot works.
If i start my phone it goes on fastboot mode, and if i try "fast boot twrp-3.3.0-0-daisy.img" i get the error "device unable to boot Error - mdtp image is corrupted"
Can some one help me out, if tried to download the image again but without success..
You don't need twrp for root?!
I guess you need to get a fast boot ROM and flash it. Don't relock the bootloader. Don't flash data. Just all the other partitions.
Maybe even just flash that partition. My phone has a and b. Should just need to flash the current one.

Sorry im a little bit noob, but how it works:
flastboot flash a?
fastboot flash mdtp_a mdtp.img
That file is in the images folder after you extract the fastboot ROM.
Hi,
while having 15 years of Linux experience, I've just dropped into the same issue on my first hour of Android exploration. Currently no OS is installed and the phone boots into fastboot. Booting into twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img failes also with "Error - mdtp image is corrupted".
I've flashed mdtp.img from V10.0.12.0.PDLMIXM as described, but still I get the same error when booting into twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img . Is there somewere a documentation, how to proceed in such a case?

No OS installed is maybe cause the last rom that you flashed was not flashed in the right slot or correctly flashed.
Also the fastboot command mentioned here is to flash mdtp in "a" slot but you have to see first which is your active slot and then install it on it.

I've searched more for the reason and once got the response: FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
So it sounds I have to recreate the partition table. I haven't found any fastboot command to request the current partition status.

I don´t think that exist a command to diagnose status of partitions but I´m sure that if you try to flash on an inactive slot then won´t work, ever an inactive slot will give you a fail.
Check your active slot by typing
Code:
fastboot getvar current-slot
and then flash it on the active slot using "mdtp_a" or "mdtp_b" but ONLY if the active slot is actually with all the system on it it´s mean that if you deleted all your system and any of both are actually with partitions running (no matter that with errors) then won´t work this way as you expect.
I have the same problem, what you have did to fix? please
Hi,

If your issue is related with mdtp partition then you should to install again this image through fastboot in both slots in order to can boot device again to recovery; use
Code:
fastboot flash mdtp_a mdtp.img
and
Code:
fastboot flash mdtp_b mdtp.img
(you will get the images from any of the full fastboot roms)
From there try again the steps recommended by OP in that thread to get that your device boots on LOS but this is other question concerning only to that thread
Thanks SubwayChamp,
Will try as advised and keep you updated.
I m going to look for the fastboot rom for my daisy.

dit it and when I

What next? Mi a2 Lite stuck at Fastboot - No recovery, no nothing! Help ?
Thanks for your help!
[EDIT]
realised I can
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-daisy-3.3.1-0-offain.img
and I can flash the twrp-installer-daisy-3.3.1-0-offain.zip
but if I want to reboot; it says
Code:
No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?
so I went on with flashing lineageos 16
but at the end of the flash, I get

Your recovery is missed now cause when you flashed LOS was overwritten and device can't boot to system cause some step failed in the process.
If you flashed successfully mdtp images now follow the steps to boot to recovery and then follow those indicated to install LOS.

Thanks; this is what I did:
from TWRP I rebooted to recovery
it took me straight to fastboot again
so I
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-daisy-3.3.1-0-offain.img
again and mounted system partition then I flashed LOS
and the process went fine this time but when I rebooted to the system
it's back to fastboot again!

This is exactly what I tried to tell you: your issue concerning to this thread was solved.
Now you have an issue regarding how to flash and boot to system attempting to install LOS. TWRP is perfectly capable to mount/remount or unmount partitions if needed, no need an action from the user, this is not the reason why you are not booting but the method and steps is discussed more properly in the same thread.
From here you can take one of hese three routes:
- To insist with trying to flash LOS.
- Flash other rom or a previous known working rom.
- Return completely to stock by flashing a full global rom.
Just I could recommend that for the future when you flash a stock rom take a backup of the most important partitions (without userdata) this could avoid that you need to use EDL anymore.
Hello guys:
One month ago i bought a Redmi note 8 pro, when it comes after a long time (almost 3 weeks) it comes with bootloader opened so i couldn use for example NFC pay. I looked for information to lock the bootloader i followed steps and bootloader was closed but phone was bricked too, so only can put smarthphone in fastboot or in recovery mode. I tried flash some roms by Fastboot using CMD in pc but appears this message
C:\adb>fastboot flash system system.img
target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed in locked state)
finished. total time: 0.004s
that was expected because bootloader is closed, but now i dont know if its posible to unlock bootloader and flash a new rom or beeing bootloader closed, flash a new rom for unbrick the phone.
To solve this problem I heard something abou autoriced xiaomi accounts and something about waiting seven days for unlock but i dont know nothing about it.
Thank you guys.
Have you tried the stock firmware and flash tool?

I have tried to flash with fastboot and with miflash pro, and it always fails, I imagine that the flash tool will do the same as miflash pro and it will also fail, I will try anyway.
Thank you.

I'm sorry for answering late, but I'm very busy with the current health situation.
What I have done is focus on unlocking the bootloader, and later will flash a new rom.
To unlock the device i have download "mi flash unlock tool"
Software recognice my phone
Click on "unlock">"unlock anyway">"unlock anyway"
Verifying device-ok
Unlocking-Fail
Couldn´t unlock
Please add your account in MIUI´s Settings > Developers option > Mi Unlock status
This way doesnt work.
I try by fastboot and cmd commands
Fastboot devices
Ok is connected and recognized
fastboot oem device-info
...
time 0.002s
Failed (remote: Unknown command)
fastboot oem unlock
...
time 18.455s
FAILED (Remote: GetVar Variable Not Found)
(Smartphone disconect and rebboy on recovery mode)
And well...I dont know what to do now.
It won't unlock because your device is already unlocked. You need to flash stock rom from custom recovery. Install custom recovery via adb. when you go back to stock rom device will be oem locked again. Also original account that was used to oem unlock device may be required that is why it might be failing.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...de-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-root-t3995919 (useful software here)
After flashing stock rom In fastboot try
Linux: adb fastboot-linux oem lock
OSX: adb fastboot-mac oem lock
Windows: adb fastboot-windows.exe oem lock
after flash stock rom using miflash and click clean all and lock , the flashing was successful then the phone was stuck on bootloader and now i cant even turn off the phone, the screen stay in fastboot..what should i do? please help me and tell me what to do step by step cz now the bootloader is locked..
Can you post the Miflash log?
Miflash/log folder, Txt file + or -25kb.
Use spoiler.
If you have a Chinese version (K40s)and you have locked the bootloader on a rom other than Chinese, it comes from that.

I'm not the OP.
With the bootloader unlock you can flash any version of stock rom, EEA, Global, etc, and lock the bootloader.
Except if you have a K40S or you have to let the bootloader unlock.

If you need to leave Fastboot mode, just press and keep a combination of the Power button + the Volume Down for about 10 seconds.
have you any Expierience with Fastboot and the Terminal? than i have Read that your Device has A/B Partitions!!! That means SLOT A has now your Flashed Firmware & SLOT B has the older StockROM!!! Normaly when a Partition is Broken it changes the SLOT Automaticly!!!! with Terminal and fastboot can you Interact with the Device via PC!!!! so that you can use this commands to become the Information witch SLOT is Active, and SET one of the Booth Partitions!!!!
Show Activ SLOT
fastboot getvar current-slot
SET a SLOT
fastboot set_active b
or
fastboot set_active a
Show Activ SLOT
fastboot getvar current-slot
Reboot the Device
fastboot reboot

not working...error:FAILED (remote: Erase is not allowed in Lock State)
OK, original Tools and Firmware cannot Flash in locked BL!! than you can Flash in Recovery or in EDL Mode!! you stuck at Fastboot Mode so you cant Flash via Recovery!!! or you use fastboot in Terminal and test the following commands!!!
Boot Recovery via fastboot
fastboot boot xxx/Images/recovery.img
or
Reboot Recovery
fastboot reboot recovery
or
Flash Boot/Recovery
fastboot flash boot xxx/Images/boot.img
fastboot flash recovery xxx/Images/recovery.img
fastboot reboot
when this not working you can use EDL-Mode!!!
Poco F4 test Point Reboot 9008 EDL - ROM-Provider
Poco F4 test point is typically a set of pins on the device's circuit board that can be shorted together in order to put the device into edl mod
romprovider.com
Than you can Flash it with QPST or QFiL Tool from Qualcomm!!! but i must look when i at home if the fastboot Firmware includes all needed Files!!! rawprogrammer0.xml patch0.xml firehosexxxx.mbn

Stop posting non-solutions.
Miflash unusable with the bootloader locked. (Yet noted on the OP).
Regarding your last post, the command syntax is wrong and it will not change anything.
For EDL mode, you don't know, it is not necessary to open the phone to enter EDL mode and anyway, it will not have permission to flash.
QPST or QFiL Tool from Qualcomm may work but not on this device (too recent) and Sahara is a very sensitive program and requires some experience to avoid errors such as:
ERROR: function: sahara_rx_data:277 Unable to read packet header. Only read 0 bytes.
ERROR: function: sahara_main:983 Sahara protocol error
ERROR: function: main:320 Uploading Image using Sahara protocol failed
Download Fail:Sahara Fail:QSaharaServer Fail process fail.

This is not the subject of the thread. (do some research).
If it is impossible to enter recovery or fastboot mode and if it is not a HW problem, the phone is in EDL Mode.
It will not appear on the PC unless you install the Qualcomm drivers and will be detected by Miflash (in Fastboot mode, no need to log in) on a com port (login mandatory), but you will not have permission to flash (requires a special account).
This permission is not needed on very old devices.
Until the OP has answered my questions, I could not provide him with a possible solution.
