ReplyHow and why did u install boot.img?? boot.img are custom kernels that can be flashed only on unlocked bootloaders , if you flash on locked bootloader your device will soft brick , use Sony Update Service or PC Companion to repair your phone. Or you can use Flashtool , download Flashtool and ftf fimrware file of your phone and flash using Flashtool.
