Hi,

just do a Hard Reset and the original ROM will be installed again (called factory settings). How to perform a HR, see your manual of your device.

kindest regards, kuzibri
thanks for your reply,but I can't do a factory reset :(
The device won't bbot into recovery nor boot in...fastboot and flashmode are still working(the pc recognize the device in both mode)

Camera broke

have Unlocked my Sony Z3 Dual D6633 and rooted successfully, once I unlocked it, the camera stopped working, just show black, even the front camera
Have tried other apps, like Google camera but still the same
I understand that losing the DRM key could affect the camera quality but, it's now totally broken
IS there anyway to lock back the bootloader?

Can you boot your phone into flash mode and fastboot mode? If yes, then you ok to go.
Pc Companion will install the necessary drivers anyway.
Then just follow the video. I was in the same shoe... And now it's ok.

I was on a custom rom, yes you need internet to download pc Companion, and it uses internet when repair the device.
Took it into a shop and they couldn't fix it within the 2 hours so I'll have to ring this morning they said they needed to do a diagnostics test on it :confused: should be an easy fix

Have you tried to fix it via pc Companion? It would take no more than 20-25minutes(depend on you broadband speed)
