Hello!
So, I've messed up. When I tried to install custom ROM with unlocked bootloader and TWRP on my phone I accidentally installed Xperia XZ1 compact version. After that my phone stopped booting, but I still had access to TWRP (without touch support, but mouse works). TWRP was saying that I don't have OS on the phone and it can't mount vendor directory. I've tried to restore OS using newflaser and the latest official ROM from XperiaFirm, after that TWRP stopped complaining that I don't have an OS and vendor directory fixed, but I cannot boot into OS and it still bootlooping. I'm scared to brick it forever and I need help to restore my phone.

Please use newflasher and xperifirm to install the ROM completely
Then also TWRP will disappear and your phone will run pure stock.
