Z1 Compact on bootloop

Hello. I decided to update my Z1c to Lollipop, so I downloaded Sony Bridge for Mac and performed the update. However, I encountered "Error CM 100 contact support" or something similar to that. The phone now is in a continious bootloop, it boots, red light flashes, then the screen says "Sony Xperia", the screen shows black for about 10 seconds, shuts down and repeats continuously. I tried recovery mode but it wouldn't work and I can't go back into Bridge or perfom some sort of diagnostics because it keeps shutting down and booting up continuously. Please help me!

Remove the SIM card and the SD card, charge your phone for an hour and try again with either PCC or Bridge

Then you have to Flash your Device down again,. fw 108 or. 157 including the Kernels. But via Fastboot and Computer. Actually there is no solution for an D5503 with locked bootloader to Flash a New rerecovery, so u have to unlock your BL or you have to downgrade the Device, recommended on. 108 fw, following root ans rerecoveryinstalls and Flash manually a Lollipop ftf via Recovery. Thats how both will survive it Winking_Face
