[Q] Probably Hard Brick

Orkeren · Jun 16, 2014

Hi all.
Somehow I managed to feel like a noob. So as follows:

Model: C5303
ROM: Stock
BL: Locked
TA partition: untouched

It bootloops and goes to the sony repairscreen
I can detect it with fastboot, but not write to (ie fastboot oem unlock hangs and doesn't give any error response)
I can detect it with flashtool in S1boot mode, but again cannot write to it. It hangs/fails when trying to write to it both from Androxyde's Flashtool and with SUS

I feel like there must be something very obvious that I'm missing, as I cannot see what I'm doing wrong.
Any ideas?

If you did OEM unlock did you use the key you got from Sony's website?

The code is fastboot OEM unlock 0xKEY

yes I did. I've unlocked quite a few phones by now.
What happens is, that it seems to accept the fastboot command and then hangs.
