Did you try download stock ftf - run flashtool - choose the ftf, when ask for the phone ... push the off button for 5s (behind the phone next to sd slot), then put the phone in flash mode (vol. down) - connect your usb, phone should flash.

Every ZL/Z is meant to work in Flash Mode, just reset the phone by holding the OFF button on the back panel where the SD-card and SIM card are placed. Disconnect your phone from the computer, hold the OFF button until it vibrates THREE times (hold it for 3 seconds it vibrates twice (hard restart), hold for 5 it vibrates thrice(forced flashmode)) soon after plug in the phone into your computer (along with the proper drivers installed from Flashtool in (or wherever you installed it) C:/FlashTools/Drivers (these drivers are SOE-blah, ADB, and fast boot mainly located at the bottom.) Once you've accomplished this, head on over to the Android Development section download a FTF file and restore. If you wish to keep all your data try reinstalling RomAur with proper installation instructions, due to my lack of experience with that rom I cannot give you the best advice other than if you have CWM installed it's an option to constantly flash other roms/zips to possibly fix your scenario. Good luck!

I'll give you more details now, about my problem.

1.- My phone was OK (rooted and with CWM) running Hackit custom rom.
2.- I install RomAur, then on reboot the phone got stuck on sony logo (it means, sony logo, and then reboot, sony logo and then reboot, infinite loop). Pressing OFF button (back next to the SD) it restarts the phone but the infinite loop continues.
3.- I installed flashtool (drivers, etc)
4.- I run the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and plugin the usb cable at the same time it puts on yellow light (i dont know what mode it is). Infinite loops stops, phone is off and battery charging icon is displayed.
5.- On yellow light then i disconnect the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and reconnecting flashtool recognize it ("28/024/2013 20:24:13 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode"). No light on the phone. If i do the same but with VOL UP it runs fastboot (blue light).
6.-On flashmode, I press the flash device button (black beam icon), it ask for mode, i choose flashmode. Then i select the ftf. and flashtool displays
28/043/2013 20:43:29 - INFO - Preparing files for flashing
28/044/2013 20:44:07 - INFO - Device disconnected
And the infinite loop returns...

If i pressthe powe off button nothing happens, it vibrates only one time, every restart on the loop

HELP! and thanks for your answers

From your comments, get to your step 5. Meaning get your phone off. Run flashtool choose stock ftf when it asked for the phone. Holding Vol.Down plug in usb - this should reset your phone and get you going.
