Hello,
I got today the Xperia Z (c6603) on android 4.2.2. I got some issues rooting it from fastboot (soft bricked. I had to flash stock Jelly bean 4.1), but then I installed a working TWRP using XZ-lockeddualrecovery installer. (not using fastboot because at first time it bricked my device)
Now I installed CM12.1 latest stable release and I had another soft brick. (vibrates and then only black screen. Could not enter either recovery mode). I reinstalled stock 4.1 and I will try again flashing CM12.1 as soon as I have any clue how to avoid soft bricking it again.
Can anybody help me?

First, before even installing CM12.1, flash the boot.img. It's inside the CM12.1 zip file. Instructions at bottom here.
After you've done that your present bootloader will be incompatible with the present ROM (won't boot), but that's fine because you're instantly going into recovery, wipe data, cache, and flash CM12.1 then gapps one after another. Make sure those already are present on your device, or SD card, before you get here.
Now the ROM is guaranteed to boot.
However, it's not guaranteed that the modem will work appropriately, because 5.0.2 has officially come to the Xperia Z, and CM12.1 is incorporates latest SONY C6603 lollipop blobs, and I don't know whether it brings some modem firmware updates. In case you experience issues here's a central Europe .ftf you can flash with flashtool. You'll have to redo the entire process, but you'll know you have 100% CM12.1 compatibility. It's probably an unnecessary precaution, but just in case you can't make a phone call, give that a shot.
Good luck!
Really is wrong thread for this but you need to install lollipop from Sony (linked by guy you quoted) to get the correct baseband and NFC firmware etc. Your boot loader must be unlocked. Then fast boot should always work. Do you use Linux? You may need udev rules for your device in both adb and fast boot mode.Hi,
Okay I tried. Once I do "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and succeeds, then I cannot start device anymore.
Power button only vibrates, so no recovery too!
And last, if it helps, I have to unlock bootloader each time I try to flash boot.img. Otherwise it just says that this is not permitted.
I wonder if I should not try installing CM12.1 over Jelly bean 4.1, due to difference at partitions.
Does any of that help you understand what should I do?
Now I installed kit kat from sony, and I am waiting for help in order to retry.
Thanks

You are posting in a developer thread. There are multiple guides out there already. Just use one of them. It's here we post crash logs and patches, not how to install a ROM.Hi,
It did not work. I used C6603_10.6.A.0.454, original rom. Then fastboot flash boot boot.img from my linux.
sudo fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x*******************
...
OKAY [ 0.393s]
finished. total time: 0.393s
sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (10594 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.337s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 0.528s]
finished. total time: 0.865s
And as usual in my case soft bricked (phone only vibrates. No Sony logo at all). I now restore sony rom from flashmod.
Anyone can help me get CyanogenMod to my device?
Thanks
Did you unlocked the bootloader before doing this? If you dont: do unlock and then try again.Hi,

Anyone still experience the no sound in call bug?

Yeah, seems to happen after 1st call every boot. Have you tried any 5.1 custom Rom that doesn't have this bug?
Also @qsnc I can't seem to access the *#*# service menu, anyone else with this problem?
