Is my phone bricked?

[Starcanball]

A few days ago I tried to factory reset my phone but when I did it was in CWM and no matter what I did (flash new rom/recovery) it would go back into cwm. Then I got TWRP to install onto my phone through CWM. When I try to flash a ROM/Recovery on TWRP and I try to reboot it, it just goes back to TWRP and I cant get into my actual android because Im stuck in recovery. I do not have a nandroid back up either.

To me, sounds like you need Xionia or CoT recovery for recovery boot loop fix.

You need to use adb to flash recoveries. That will be done through a computer, not on the phone since you can't get to a terminal emulator. Instructions will be in the stickies.

Okay Ill install that, but what do I do with Xionia and/or COT?

They both have an option to fix recovery loops(has to do with a corrupted cache partition I think).

Okay how would I go about installing this?

Okay, to clarify you cannot get adb to setup and the flashable xionia I made you and COT didn't either. Is that correct? I am sorry, but I if that is the case, I think I am at the end of the advice I can offer. I do think you can fix this but with KDZ or KP500 and I have no experience with those as the rely on emergency mode, and I never had a need to use it.

I would try flashing the xionia package again, as well as COT (you did find cannibal open touch to try right?). I see no reason why they won't flash. Wipe cache and dalvik cache prior to each attempt (might be over kill but do it any way). Choose the install menu, navigate thru to the file you want to flash, then swipe to confirm flash.

After you flash, follow the reboot menu and choose recovery.

I have no cue what the problem is but this is what happens when I try to install COT through TWRP without adb
Updating partition details...
Installing '/Sdcard/COT-v2.0.2-ls
(Status 2)
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/COT-
Updating partition details...

Then it says failed. Is it because I didn't use adb?

It's off. Is that bad?

 

[Seditec]

No
It just means you don't have to flash signed zips

Oh, do you know what I would need to do to get my phone to get out of the recovery boot loop i'm in because of TWRP?
