Well, that is charm of Alphas... In My case, no problem at all. Sim work. After revert to original Sony's firmware with twrp backup, everything same.... Space as before flash.
Quick question, how did You revert it back? Twrp backup and restore or what?

Yes TWRP Backup/Restore. I have on Internal storage photos, music etc, maybe about 5Gb. Myabe they are still there, I see all folders which I have there before installing Android 7, but all are empty.

I installed it and it ran perfect but when I tried to go back to stock rom with AndroPlus kernel my phone won't boot any kernel except when I flash the stock one using flash tool. it will only vibrate once when the power button is pressed then nothing (No led or Sony logo). and now when I try to flash this rom again, booting recovery via flash tool gives error "dtb not found".

Basically I can't run any custom kernel or modified system, I can only run a flashed ftf.

Any help?
