Using flashtool is fine, but its limited to you have the correct firmware you want to flash. This person may want the firmware from their region, not the generic world or whatever they may have.
Greetings all, I wanted to root my Xperia Neo whose bootloader was unlocked. I flashed it with .42 firmware using flashtool and then rooted it with DoomLord toolkit, uninstalled all bloatwares using titnium backup and then relocked my bootloader. At the end I tried update to .62 over OTA but it fails Update center downloads the firmware properly but when it fails to install on my Neo. What should I do? please help
Thanks in advance..

just download a .62 ftf and flash it.. dont bother about the OTA..
nicks25:
Flash version .42
Root via Doomlord's method
KEEP THE PHONE SW UNTOUCHED!
Make OTA update to version .62
Now you can remove bloatware.

and after that unlock your BL and root it by flashing superuser.zip trough CWM.
@CZMagic thanks buddy, it worked. and before I read my answers here on this forum, I had already done the process said by u.
The mistake I was doing was that I altered .42 firmware by removing bloatwares first and then I was doing OTA update for .62 firmware.
that's wrong way.
So if somebody facing the same problem, kindly do the following,
1> flash .42 firmware ( latest flashtool version might not read this firmware, so I used some old version v6.x.x )
2>Then do Rooting by DooMLord method
3>Re-lock the bootloader
4>update firmware to .62 over the OTA
5>install titanium backup from market which is free or get root explorer from 4shared freely
6> Uninstall the bloatware, All done!
P.S: Hit the thanks button

flashing .62 FW with flashtool loses the root access duh, but OTA doesn't. That's why OTA is recommended..
Hi people
It's simple, i need the stock 1.6 for X10 mini E10i in ftf format to flash it through flashtool, i tried with SEUS to get the stock but it says i already have the latest version and it doesn't give the option to install stock version anyway, so i need to do a downgrade, i've looked in xda, htc mania and many other pages that appeared in google but there is not 1.6 ftf version available only broken links, so if someone still have it please update it. I can't use the smartphone cause it keeps looping in the bootloader i can just flash with flashtool but even though i tried with nAa kernels to flash custom roms it still loop in boobloader.
I really need that stock rom to downgrade
Please help
Thanks
Not sure that will do you any good. If you're stuck in a bootloop with both your original firmware and with custom firmware your phone probably is broken somehow.
But, the easiest way to get to the repair option in SEUS is to disconnect your phone and choose update. It can't find your phone so it will give you a repair option. Just follow the instructions from there.
Failing that: Here is a 2.1 firmware for flashtool.
Nevermind, i fixed it already, just tried a couple more times with nAn 14 and flashing my latest backup. Besides i had the 2.1 in ftf and flashed it but didn't work, that's why i needed 1.6, so the update option could be available.
But thanks anyway
