Do you have install SEUS? Maybe you need install drivers from seus...
Sent from my X10 using XDA App
First Install SESU then install flash tools
connect phone and let it install drivers automatically..
restart system, then install flash tools.
most important thing is you must keep USB debugging mode on in phone..
its in Setting->application->development....
if everything is done well, flash tool will work properly.....
if not then please check yor processess in taskmanager, you must have running adb.exe ........
thanks both very much for your help, where do i download the sues driver from?
Just install Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) from their web site and you will get the drivers that you need
Hi, I bricked my SE Xperia X10 Mini pro(u20i). I have root, recovery(CWM) and CyanoComb v1.4. When I rebooted phone, unlocked screen it shows errors about apps that they closed and than the phone rebooted. I can't do nothing, go to recovery is impossible. I tried flashtool but it's need to enable uknown sources an debugging but i can't go to system. SEUS didn't respond when i connect the phone with back button... HELP ME! Thanks
Edit: Now i see that the Flasher shows error after plugin phone in flash mode. HELP!
I looked into my magic glass bowl and saw that you did something and my future cards said you will have gotten some help. But not specifically.
I hope this disburdens yourself a bit.
Now after you cooled down and recognized that the information(s) you gave us is too unspecific you can go on to give more informations.
But first:
Doi you have the correct ftf file(s) for flashtool? Flashtool does not need to have anything enabled on your phone. Also SEUS should work. If not you bricked your phones hardware.
My guess is you did not correctly follow the instructions to use SEUS. Follow them step by step. They are well explained. Possibly you haven't the correct driver on your PC... But this did not tell me my glass bowl, this stupid thing. May you tell us what operating system you use? Maybe reinstalling SEUS will help. Do you have the actual VFewrson of SEUS? I guess SEUS is the better choice then flashtool for you. (both do the same but flashtool can flash other roms)
Good luck.
I have W7 and XP, i tried SEUS and Flashtool on both. I downloaded UK 2.1 ROM and than I did .ftf file. After i enter flash mode in Flashtool it say: Error Flashin Aborted, Now unplug your device and power it on, turn on Uknown sources and Debugging.
In SEUS, when it ask to turn in flash mode, I do it but SEUS didn't recognize my device.

@wOrHeR SvK: i had the same behaviour with Flashtool, so i powered off the device, powered on in flash mode and reflashed with FlashTool, after that it was flashed fine (don't follow the ending message to activate unknown sources and other crap, you don't need it... focus only at flash stage, that's what you need).
By the way Snoopo is right, flashing with SEUS (open application and search for "repair your phone" or something like that) does the job in every circumstance but hardware failure.
Good luck!
nothing... I turned on in flash mode and than click flash in Flashtool. Same problem... SEUS can't recognize... I Don't know why but before it was OK
tommorow i will go to my friend and try it at his PC
redownload the ftf file... did you possibly load a mini (u10) file instead a x10 mini pro (u20)?
did you use the right version of Flashtool? The one from Androxyde/Bin4ry [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746]?
Use SEUS to reinstall your ROM
yeah, tried 0.2.8 and 0.2.9.1. SEUS still not working...
Correct Flashfiles are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826455
And SEUS also should work. What are the error messages? Make sure your phone is really OFF, start SEUS choose "x10 mini pro" (NOT "mini pro" without "x10" - this is a coplete new model and not really released yet) and go through the process until it says you have to connect your phone and do it exaclty like it is explained: hold the back-button while you are connecting your phone hold it down as long as it is looking for your phone when it starts flashing you can release the button. there should be the green indicator LED showed while the restore is running.
The Flashtool ones you pasted look like the flashmode is started successfully but it is possibly a wrong flash file. So try the correct one(s) (rename the .rar file downloaded from page above into .ftf)
otherwise you really bricked your boot partition and can try if SE wants to rescue your phone or if it says that your warranty is void...
SEUS still nothing, tried everything... Flashtool: when i first turn phone on to flash mode and than click flash in flashtool, it say Start Flashing and than the Error but when it says the error the green led is off and the phone is going to start... any idea ?
also SEUS isn't showing any errors, just say that i have to connect phone in flash mode...
I can boot to system but in system it showing errors about apps thah must close.... That isn't bricked boot patriton i think.

Thanks for responses, frankly I don't know what happend to it, it came to me already broken, trying to flash but it won't enter it in msc mode (@ puppet13th: yes, I was reffering to mtp), and I don't know how to switch to msc because it doesn't boot. Thanks a lot for your help
Is there a way to switch it to msc with adb push or something? Anyone can help me?

Enter flashmode for flashtool
Hey....i don't think you need to switch it to MSC mode for flashing.... did you try to enter flashmode by holding "Volume down" button while inserting the USB cable into the phone ? Are you trying to flash it via Flashtool ( it is the easiest way ) ?

Yes, I tried to flash it with flashtool, but it won't recognize the phone, holding volume down while inserting usb, and the mini led light up orange, so... what else can I do? .. thanks
Did You switch the phone off before that?
Procedure is:
1) Switch off the phone (remove battery if needed)
2) Press "volume down" and hold
3) Put he USB cable in.
Do You see driver installation dialog running in windows? wait until it finishes.
4) Start the flashtool
5) Flash the ROM.
Yes, I did exactly the same, but it doesn't install the drivers
Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk
Then You need to install either Sony PC companion or form the Sony develeoper site the proper drivers.
Sony PC Companion You find here
Pc companion will install all the SE xperia drivers You need.

You have drivers in Flashtool folder under : \flashtool\drivers install them , and accept all of the installation requests by Windows . Or install official drivers from Sony or from Google's SDK source .

I did it like this: connect phone in fastboot mode, then i installed the drivers manually when this is not working plug out your phone install PDA net on your computer, connect your phone in fast boot mode and the program will install the drivers
Sorry for my bad english
when you plug in your usb while holding volume down key the led should be green not orange.
green led means the phone is in flashmode.

hi this not help ,any idea?
This may help you 90%... just try it
I also have bricked up my Xperia Neo V
I tried many tools but no one helped.....
Finally I got back my bricked phone back by doing following things....
download all the needed things you need to update phone with wotan X tool unlock, you will need
1. X_Unlock_Tool_Setup_Wotan
2. WotanClient
3. USBFlashDriver
you can get all these from wotan website.
also create an account on wotan website. NO NEED TO BUY ANY CREDITS
install all above mentioned tools.
then run X UNLOCK TOOL
then follow on screen instructions untill you get an error that you don't have sufficient credits.
NOTE THAT NOW YOUR PHONE HAS GOT A SIM LOCK CERTIFICATE FROM THIS TOOL. BUT THE POSITIVE ASPECT IS THAT YOU CAN NOW FLASH ANY ftf FILE USING FLASH TOOL. SIM LOCK WILL BE REMOVED AFTER THE WHOLE PROCESS.
now flash the desired firmware on your phone.
power up your phone
if it power ups successfully, then your phone will not detect your SIM card.
finally use S1 tool to remove SIM LOCK CERTIFICATE.
CLICK THANKS IF IT WORKS
BEST OF LUCK

I am using an Unlocked Bootloader Xperia Ray and it got bricked when I tried to flash in Cyanogen mod 7 for Xperia Ray...
Now I am trying to flash stock roms using Flashtool but it is requiring me to be in Flasmode which obviously I can't do it. I have done the steps but it wont recognize my phone.
I am also trying to figure how to flash a kernel but every kernel that I download comes in an *.img format but FLASH TOOLs require FTF file to flash the kernel.. how can I do it?

I'm trying to root my phone using a tutorial, so I have to flash .10 and .54 kernels.

Sony PC Companion installed.
Have a Sony Xperia Sola MT27i, Windows XP SP3 and the last version of Flashtool.

In order to flash the kernels u need not have to enable usb debugging
So here what u should do
Switch off phone
Keep it aside
Select kernel.ftf to flash in flashtool
Flashtool will ask u to connect phone in flashmode
Just press the volume down button (phone should b pff) of ur phone pressed and attach to usb
Try to restart Flashtool with your device already plugged in with USB Debugging on.
Sometimes happen with me. I just restart Flashtool and it detects it.
Thank you both, but if I connect the phone while holding volume down button can recognize the device?

good evening, i need some helps about the flastool using usb debug....
last night i intended to flash my a690 using another firmware that is s319. my reason was about to upgrade it to ics.
then i follow the instructions for flashing a690 using flashtool. it was succeed, i turn on the phone.... so the problem appeared, my phone can't login, even bootloop just in blank screen.
then i decided to back it firmware to stock rooom using flastool again.....and this information of error appeared.
i tried almost 3 hours by using another firmware but it wasn't succeed. i thought the error appeared because of the usb debug didn't click it.
so if there is anyone knew about this issued, please help me what should i do??
the first mistake that i had made so far was using another firmware fo my lenovo.

Hi all, if anyone is having trouble flashing with flash tool because usb debugging isn't enabled error then do this procedure.......
1. Dowload latest flash tool 0.9.18.8 and also version 0.6.6
2. Try use the latest version first to Flash the tft rom. NOTE: remember the file it has error flashing e.g on my experia sp file system.sin was not able to Flash bcoz usb debugging error (enable usb debugging and unknown sources) ALL THE REST of the files flashed ok!
3.try flash again the rom but this time tick system.sin (or error file) in flashtool to exclude it from flashing. Make sure all other files are included. Also tick all wipe caches options and flash rom without system.sin (or error file).
4. Flash procedure will work. Now disconnect phone and leave it off without restarting it.
5. Uninstall flashtool latest version 0.9.18.8 and install flashtool 0.6.6 old version and open it to Flash the same rom BUT THIS TIME only select the system.sin file (or error file) to be flashed and rest excluded. Make sure all wipe options in flashtool are enabled and Flash! THE FLASH WILL WORK WITHOUT USB DEBUGGING ERROR and your phone will be fixed!
Press thanks if it helped!

from where i can download kernel.ftf
Hello Experts,
I was trying to upgrade my xperia u to jelly bean via cm10. This is my first attempt on this and i hope i have bricked it.
This is the current status of my phone:
Phone Not Booting ! When i press power button, only vibrates once and never boots up.
Followed few older threads on this and tried with flashtool, phone connects in flash mode but flashing any ftf never succeeds. Error flashing. aborted everytime.
The last step i did before the phone went dead was : fastboot flash boot boot.img with FXP236-cm-10-20130910-UNOFFICIAL-urushi build.
The phone is rooted/bootloader unlocked(followed the steps from sony site)/Clockwordmod installed
This is the page which tempted me to go for the upgrade : androidlegend's "Update Xperia U ST25i to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean via Cyanogenmod 10"
Please please help me on this.
Yo you flashed the wrong cm for your device. The one you flashed is meant for another device the one you flashed is for XPERIA RAY

Have you flashed the file you are trying to flash before on the same PC?
I suggest you start repair with PC Companion, then when download is finished and it ask to connect in flash mode built the formware FTF with flashtool, and see if that fails as well.

I asked specific question for a reason, so please answer it.
Also if you have used PC Companion with your phone before there is no need for it to recogniise it or even be connected to begin repair.
And Xperia U is definately showing in SUS but you cannot use it because it would not even begin downloading for unlocked bootloader.

Take out the baterry for few minutes and put it back in, open flashtool, and while it is open, hold the volume down key and connect to the USB cable. leave it connected for a minute, then copy the log and post it or save the log and attach the log file to your next post.
When you repaired with PC Companion did it ask you to power off the phone and connect it while holding the colume down ket?
Copy the next line: C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\13740270\blob_fs
Click the windows button, psate it and press enter, does a window open with 3-4 files beginning with "FILE_" near the top of the list?
