Xperia Arc S problem after rooting

Hello there, I have rooted my Arc S with this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884958&highlight=wont+boot
After rebooting it stocked on Sony logo, now I can do anything more, It turn on it selfs, I cant shut down. The pc doesnt recognize it so cant flash other one which works...
Is there any other solution please help me. After couples of times trying to connect with PC, I have took of the battery and then none signal from the phone (Before it start it self). But when I try to turn it to recovery mode or connect with pc again the same problem, vibrate and stocked on Sony Logo.
Please anyone help. Will pay for it.

Just re flash some firmware through PC? I assume you've tried flash tool and that you're not using something else? Short if that there is also a Sony recovery program you could try...

Use Flashtool to recover.
ROMs are not for rooting, my friend. You also need to have custom kernel (for some of the ROMs), if you wish to install custom firmware/ROM.

You can use SEUS to flash the latest firmware to your phone provided you did not unlock bootloader. You can relock the bootloader if you have unlocked it earlier though...

It works
I have flashed with the official from sony, and now it works. I will wait for some ultimate update to add that rom

Locked or unlocked boot loader?
Give jjs hybrid a shot.

Now I have official software from xperia, and dont know which rom to add
Can someone give me advice for that, I want something that have Jelly Bean mods and etc.
Also Links to which kernel to flash and how to I know to work with flashtool as I do it before.
Thanks

LG G2 boot loop after editing build.prop What to do?

guys I changed my dpi with this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi&hl=en
textdroider dpi now i am in a boot loop
my phone is rooted but i dont have any custom recovery installed on it.
I took a backup on my sdcard of that build.prop and i guess the app gets one also but is there a way I can change the faulty one?
As I said I only had stock recovery is it possible to adb with that? Or is my only chance is to flash stock rom again
as it is described on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
if so which rom should I download I live in Australia and got and Australian stock phone. Should I download d802 Asia?
Thanks for all the help I would really appreciate if I can save it without losing my data but if thats the only way what can I do.

I hope you have a custom ROM or the ROM you have already flashed. Just make a flashable zip with the build.prop placed in /system/ .
flash it through recovery and you are back again..

Or just flash your Rom again. Should fix the issue

Guys I am a complete newbie. Can you please explain it more to me.
I am currently downloading the .kdz file via this software
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073827
also i did found this http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2186883&p=6&#r106
so i am pretty sure I am downloading the right rom right now because the software pickup the same name.
So am I right about flashing my phone by following the steps on the topic I mentioned in my first post?
Is this what you mean by flashing trought recovery because that dude says download mode.
BTW I cant flash trought lg's utility I dont know if its related or not but windows cant install CDC driver.
Also when I flash the rom am I going to lose my data.
Thanks for your answers guys really appericate it.

Just adb the build.prop...
No, download mode it's a form of diagnostic mode, recovery doesn't matter.
You will lose everything. Read and learn, test and perform, only you can make yourself not a noob.

How can I adb the build.prop ?
I can only go into LG G2 Stock recovery mode and download mode. There is no custom recovery installed so I cant open debugging and adb doesnt recognize the device.
Am i doing something wrong? and believe me I have been reading for hours

I can't explain it much further, your gonna have to search forums. There was a recent thread on this with koushs driver and some lines to force recognize. I don't remember were or what.

I bootlooped changing my dpi as well. I was stock rooted with no custom recovery. I followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471370&highlight=unbrick and was able to get my phone to work again. FYI, it may install the latest firmware for your phone, even if it's not OTA yet, and ioroot might not support it yet if it does. I have a d801 and it installed the latest firmware, although it wasn't OTA yet. Hope this helps.

Ahh mate it would probably helped because my support tool couldnt recognize my device as d802 but instead l02e or l20e sth like that with united driver but I reckon those are the drivers I was looking for unfortunately I dont have the phone anymore.
I turned the phone back to the warranty today not giving any explanation to try my luck. they may just do this same procedure and just flash stock rom on the service and send it back to me or they might just say this is rooted its out of warranty either case I will let them deal with it if they say this is out of warranty I will ask them to fix it and I am willing to pay if they quote me something reasonable if they dont I will try this.
Thank you very much for your answer.

If they say rooted and stuff and outa warranty! Just get it back home.. I will help you via teamviewer!

Thank you heaps man how nice of you. I would let you guys know how it goes. Its only soft bricked so i think technical support would be able to flash the stock firmware on it but I hope they wont decide to give me hard time. If they do i am planning to play the fool
I will definitely pm you if I get it back unfixed. Thank you for the offer.

Guys I just wanted to give you update on the matter. Today I called the repair centre and they told me they have fixed the phone and send it back yesterday so I should be able to get it in couple of days maybe this friday or next week monday something like that. They didnt say anything about root or warranty or stuff like that. When I get the phone back what can I do prevent this from happening again? Do I need to flash a custom recovery on the phone? What is the risk of doing that? Or should I just root the phone and not mess with the system files ever again
Thanks heaps for all your inputs.

Got the phone today they changed the motherboard. I am not sure if it is a good thing or a bad thing :/ On the good side it is fixed for good on the flipside the phone has been opened now so thats not so good. I have checked the body coudlnt find too many stracthes or sth like that they did a clean job but still.
Anyway that was the last update.

[Q] Why I bricked my phone with LG Flash tool?

I have LG G2 D802 32GB. When I bought it, there was Android 4.4.2 KitKat installed.
Then I rooted it using ioroot25 and installed custom recovery using AutoRec.
I flashed CloudyG3 v1.2 rom by @Cloudyfa using TWRP.
It was working really good except the VOIP calls, thus I wanted to revert back to stock.
I found this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
I tried to flash it using some Europe Open KDZ from this page: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G2%2FStock%2F
The flashing started and stucked at I think 4%. I rebooted the phone and it appeared as qhsusb_dload.
I can't remember if I clicked on Normal or CFE flash. But I think it was normal.
I tried to unbrick it with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
After that I got only LG logo and no recovery, no fastboot, no download mode, no qhsusb_dload mode, no nothing.
Now I got board replacement. The board have rooted Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean installed.
As I want to have CloudyG3 installed. I tried to do that by installing custom recovery and then flashing the CloudyG3 rom and KitKat baseband. But I think I have a battery drain issue, as Cludyfa already said. I also tried with flashing the Cust and Persist partitions from the KitKat KDZ, but my battery didn't got any better.
The question is, why I bricked my phone with LG flash tool? What should I do to make sure that this won't happen again?
I made backup of entire phone nand (mmcblk0). Should I DD it if I get the bulk mode (qhsusb_dload) again?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

@mss1988 if the phone is stuck at 4% just let it still for some time cause the program could might be bugged or some other error, just leave the phone on dont restart it cause the phone has first removed the stuff and didnt copied the bootloader etc yet.
If you get qhsusb_dload mode then I suggest to use the unbrick guide and also Pick the right files for your phone. You can DD your backup to your phone but using the unbrick guide seems safer to me.
Also check when you can use that qhsusb dload that all files are copied good.
Tip to prevent brick after root and custom recovery: Flash an stock rom through recovery or an stock rom which got modified under the hood.

That something like ????? Was probably in some asian language which your pc couldnt read. Some pc's makes boxes from it some ?. I cant tell you what that ???? Means since they have no meaning without any real symbols from some language of asia (I dont know where the dev comes from)
If it was stuck at 4% you could ask it on the thread of the lg flashtool since the dev of it and or other users may know the problem.

The best option for you main RoM and the latest version of the software were spflashtool.
You have these flash through your tablet and very comfortable and a problem with the update here.

I also have Lenovo A328 (rooted, some system apps deleted) System update popped up and after install "Optimizing 1 of 70 apps" stays for ever. I did a factory reset and tried flashing ROM for my model but does not let me finish. SDK ADB doesn't give me access to files also.
I can't even install new recovery. Now i'm stuck.
Nothing in this forum can help till now. Even after going to phone repair service twice.

I may be able to help if you answer the following:
Did the problem start with flashing stock ROM, or did you flash to try to fix existing problem? If preexisting, did it occur with normal use, or while doing any modding?
Did you possibly delete any critical partitions using sp flash tool? Eg, did you use format function?
Nb. I monitor the main TB3-850F threads where you previously posted, but won't know you've replied here unless you mention me or reply using my handle in quote. PW

Hello I actually found out that the device had a corrupt nand/emmc and I can't fix it. So I basicly party it out, sold the parts and threw the rest in the trash
