Boot loop after flashing CWM recovery



Hi guys!

I flashed DooMLoRD's CWM-Based Recovery 6.0.4.6 Touch Recovery so I could get CM 11 on my z1c. Once I flashed the boot image, I booted my phone normally and went into the recovery menu to make sure things were working, which they were. After confirming I got a prompt saying that I didn't have root access and was asked if I wanted to root my phone, once I accepted the prompt things broke.

My phone is now in a boot loop which doesn't make it past the Sony logo, going into the recovery will give me the recovery screen with only the CWM logo and a black background and no options, then turn off and reboot again after a couple of seconds. I tried re-flashing the boot image and since that didn't work I tried with the ftf file as well (14.2.A.1.114) and got an error.

I was rooted before flashing CWM and had bl unlocked as well, USB debugging (of course) was also enabled and when I connect to flashtool now it says that its no longer active which I think is causing the above error but idk.

What I can still do is connect my phone in either flash or fastboot mode, but I have no recovery or access to android OS.

Any help would really be appreciated as I'm out of ideas on what to do, if you need more info I will try to provide as much as I can!

Thanks for any help in advance!
