[HELP] Can't enter flashmode/recovery mode/fastboot mode [e2306] [MM] {UB}

[merwinaleman]

Well, i've flashed the ftf file downloaded directly from xperifirm {E2306_26.3.A.0.131_R2C_Customized GEL_1294-3902}
-update-
some mysterious, magical stuff hapened and i entered fastbootmode
can boot recovery and boot.img from fastboot and now everything is fine
<3
thanks everyone

then, i've try to install root (following a tutorial for this device and this comp.) but i could not enter to FASTBOOT MODE
try using:
- (vol+) + (plug the phone)
-(power btn) + (vol+) + (plug the phone)
-(power btn) + (vol+) + (vol-) + (plug the device)
and the only thing that happened is: -Vibrate + sony logo ---> normal boot
----
Then i try to enter fastboot using the adb command {ADB REBOOT-BOOTLOADER}
but it just reboot normally (sony logo and then start normally)
[[ADB do recognize my device and all drivers were properly installed; but can't enter to fastboot mode]]
---
I've try to reflash my device again, but then i couldn't be able to enter to flashmode
{ with the device off; press vol- and then connect to usb}
after several attempts using - [(power btn) + (vol-)] i entered flashmode and reflash my device...
----
then i activate dev mode: [usb debuggin and OEM UNLOCK]
and try to get to fastboot mode, but the same results...
i got my device recognized by {ADB DEVICES}
but can't get fastboot
-----
Then the user who's helping me told me to reflash using this config
[in excludes section check all except AMSS_FSG, AMS_FS1, AMS_FS2,BOOT DELIVERY, KERNEL. Don't check anything else.]
But i can't get flashmode now... i try all the combinations, try in ubuntu 16, and windows 10... but nothing
the device starts normally nothing wrong.... except well, i can't enter any -mode- now...
any help?
Thanks

try enable usb debugging. go to setting, about phone, then scroll to build number. tap it repeadly till developer option appear on setting. set enable usb debugging there. and try flash it again.

Girlfriend tried to update her Sony Aqua M4 e2306...

she says that the boot loader was unlocked, and she installed the twrp update... and the root check came back rooted.... she powered off the phone and put it on a charger. ...

a few hours later she tried to restart it and only got the Sony Xperia screen then reboot loop.

I've spent 2 days reading everything that i can find and trying various solutions but most won't work because it won't stay connected long enough to use companion, adb, fastboot, bootloader, etc. When the devices is seen by pc it is only for a moment and comes up as a generic MTP device or a hard drive i can't open.
I can get the occasional green or blue lights and sometimes a generic battery symbol by powering off and pressing + or - with power, but never get a recovery or boot load screen... only alternating "sony Xperia" and darkness
also, Emily won't update.

I've tried multiple solutions using different versions of SDK, ADB, sony and xperia Companion, fastboot, bootloader, odin, pwm, and more on multiple machines from XP to Win10, but nothing seems to even make a dent!

I've removed the back and disconnected the battery for 2 hours and am currently trying to research a more physical hack/repair using riff jtag.

i see many people with "boot loop" issue , but no one seems to follow through and say how to get out if you don't have the option of booting to anything....

I have the same issue. I have an unlocked bootloader and booted with boot.img. everything was fine for a day or two, and when I started to factory reset my phone it is causing bootloop issues. sony logo and black screen. It never appears on my computer when connected to use adb. Any idea on how to fix this?

3. Enter Fastboot mode
4. Done
5. Jesus Bless You

I'm having the same issue.
Anoyone knows how to fix? Maybe is a problem of the cable?

PD: Tested with official cabled and turning Off OEM unlock and still the same.

also for me :´(

Not sure what your problem is exactly but it is most likely a problem with the cable or the s1 driver's(if your using window's?) one or the other ,
However i need to point out that you must have your OEM lock at the SWITCHED ON position(allow the device to be oem unlocked) or you will trip the frp at the next reboot and will have to reflash your firmware unnecessarily , so to sum up Oem unlock at the switched on position

the drivers are all installed correctly, I tried doing this with the OEM off and on and it did not work
none of the methods works, adb does normal boot
recovery reboot (and other apps) crash or boot normal too
volume (+) and power button only makes the phone vibrate (and sometimes the Sony logo appears)

 

[Hi7m3up]

I can't stress to you enough that Enable Oem need's to be on the "on position" so switch it on (allow the device to be oem unlocked)and leave it alone it's nothing to do with you not being able to get to fastboot. If you trip the frp on your phone you will not be pleased.
with that said with your phone switched on and USB DEBUGGING SWITCHED ON plug into your usb on computer open a command window and input the following command- adb reboot bootloader you will now see your blue light on the phone this means your sony is now ready for you to flash a custom recovery (assuming you have unlocked your bootloader ?)
