Hi everyone, so recently i had my xperia z soft bricked after installing TWRP recovery, then i got it hard bricked after pressing a wrong button at the CWM recovery advanced menue which i installed after TWRP failed to install the CM 14 Rom. There was no sign of life whatsoever.

Using the testpoint method i flashed APPSW c6602 firmware, the flashing worked, and the phone came back to life,the led LIT. And the sony logo followed by the charging screen pops up when i connect it to the charger. However it doesn't go into flashmode using hardware keys it just enters charging mode this was also the case before i bricked it). Im clueless as to how im going to install a software on it without the flashmode. any help would be greatly appreciated. Update: flashed 5.1.1 firmware using fastboot from blinkenlights.

Phone boots enters menu, then reboots.

Installed TWRP recovery using fastboot. Works well. Now downloading CM13 rom.

UPDATE: succeeded in installing cm13! rom is working like a charm.
