Hey all, I've been messing around with my Sony Z3 Compact (D503) and I think I broke something when I forcedfully tried to install a ROM. My problem is this, I have no system to boot to and fastboot mode dosen't work (it boots to recovery instead). Just to be clear, my drivers for ADB and fastboot are installed and working fine.
When I try to install a zip file from TWRP, i get the error message "Failed to mount '/system' (invalig argument)
When I try to boot to fastboot mode to install a new image through fastboot, I simply get back to recovery mode (TWRP).
Being curious to see if there is anything in /system or if the permissions there are broken, I used adb shell to enter /system and it shows as empty. using "ls -la" inside /system yiels the following results:
I have also tried to sideload a ZIP-file to my device, which yielded in another error
My gut tells me that the bash or shell commands are broken, and therefore it dosen't execute the install script properly (and perhaps also explains the garbled shell-prompt). Another possible case is that the installed TWRP version is errornous and need to be replaced (and how is that possible without fastboot...).
Would appriciate to get some help to get it up and running!
