I'm a complete noob, all i ever did was flashing a ROM, so please don't shoot me...
So i started by reflashing 2.3.3 stock firmware. I downloaded flashtool and installed it on my pc (0.7.1.0). I rooted the phone and installed xRecovery. So now i wanted to unlock my bootloader to flash FeraLab 17.
I installed the s1 tool to check if my phone is good to be unlocked, and it says it's fine. And now i go back to flashtool to start the unlocking: plugins> bootloader unlock> run.
So all is fine till i get to this point. When i unplug my phone and power it off and then press the back button and plug it back in it says the following:

I have the same problem KingRafox. And i've tried several method including the link posted above.
Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!
flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)
start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button
now wait until flashtool recognizes your x10 (if flashtool doesn't do anything, check third post please! thx)
close flashtool and then press any button in the cmd window that the unlocking process starts (please close flashtool, instead the bl unlock cmd and flashtool are constantly killing and restarting adb!!) <--- failed!!
after unlocking is finish you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade
now power on phone to check if the phone is starting after the unlock (if you are using a custom kernel yet with the bypass method and get stuck in a bootloop enter xrecovery and clear dalvik-cache, then your phone should boot up again fine)
power off phone and flash dooms ck v05-fs with flashtool
now flash the wifi modules for dooms ck with recovery. (atm the update.zips are for xrec, but for sure please always check dooms kernel-thread if there is anything changed)
power on phone again and if everything is right, read the line under that one
WOOOHOOO!!! Here you are with unlocked bootloader, custom kernel directly loaded AND without reflashing any rom, means you have kept your current installation
If you aren't seeing the se logo at turning on phone, but directly the custom kernel logo, you were succesfully. If you want to enter xrecovery you have to spam the back button now if the xperia logo appears instead of the se logo.

I've followed these instruction but it failed when running the unlock file (qsd8250_semc.cmd). It says that it failed to get root access or something. (I'll post the log later on).
I also flashed to stock 2.1, downgrade the kernel and tried using x10 Bootloader Unlock Tool (with the big "Unlock Bootloader" button). But failed.
If anyone have any other methods or any suggestion, i'm all open.
Thanks for replying.
Guys,
I've finally unlocked my bootloader using "The proper method".
The mistake (i think) was, I was on generic 2.3.3 when I use this method.
I flashed back to generic 2.1 and ran the unlock tool. When finished I check back with S1tool, my device show "r" and not "R" Yeaa...
Note that, I failed to unlock my bootloader when I was on 2.1 and 2.3.3 using latest Flashtool.
Thanks guys.
Guys,
I encountered the same situation when I using the least version of Flashtool (0.7.1.0), it always display - WARN - Cancelled
So I roll back to use Flashtool (v0.6.8.0) then plugins> bootloader unlock> run, it works
i'm using FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec, flash without any error. Try find it. .
Guys
Make sure your SEMC SIM LOCK status supported by doom kernel (forgot about status lock or unlock cause I tried only 1 times and get lucky)
from my expirence.. some many devices will be locked for the networks and it will give you EMERGENCY CALL and you OUT OF LUCK!

What the hell, I'm still having the same "disconnect" problem as in the original post.
Let me ask you all if I'm missing something here:
1) I have a new, Vodafone-locked X10 mini Pro.
2) I downloaded Flashtool latest
3) I used it to root the phone (ok, it worked)
4) I use the Plugin menu, then Unlock Bootloader, then you know the rest.
Am i missing something here?
Should I change kernel or install a recovery first?
If only every device was as easy as the SGS's...

Thanks DJ.
I've managed to Unlock the bootloader still yesterday, i don't know why or how, but it worked.
The difference from my previous post is that I started the process with the phone already in flash mode, then reboot, then flash mode again, and then the Flashtool did everything (even saying Bootloader: UNROOTABLE)
My difficulty after that was to flash CWM. It's funny but that next step is not explained anywhere.
Are these the correct procedures?
Stock Phone > Flashtool:Root > Flashtool:Unlock Bootloader > CWM (???) > Flash Image > Flashtool:Kernel
It's strange why:
1) There is no CWM to flash from Flashtool
2) The kernel cannot be flashed from CWM
CWM recovery is built in to kernels like doomlords v6 multi recovery or FXP kernel. You will have to flash a CWM based kernel to get CWM recovery

you mean you cannot access the x-recovery right..?? try the tool in my signature n install the CWM recovery from it.. After installing CWM recovery with the tool reboot your phone.. press the back button when sony ericsson logo comes and your done.. you can now flash Custom ROM's with CWM recovery..
Also, double check which baseband you have. It should end in x015 (x being the rest of the number). If not then you'll need to flash to the correct version. My minipro wouldnt enter xrecovery/cwm until it had been flashed to it, like you the backbutton did nothing and I couldnt find a solution for a few days.
My phone came shipped with android 1.6 and previous baseband. If you look around the forum for basebands you should be able to find it. Flash with flashtool.

Having the problem it iscoolbutton.ocx, tried the fix and still the sameproblem. My baseband ends in 15. When I run the Flashtool it gives this message:

I found the solution for my problem, I hope it helps somebody else.
steps:
1. download Flashtool-0.5.0.0beta (ask me if you want a link)
2. download s1tools (version doesn't matter)
3. install flashtool, and restart your computer (don't install gordon's gate yet0
4. plug in your turned on x10 mini(it needs to be in usb debug mode as well)
5. wait for flashtool to recognize it
6. on the menu click on plugins,unlock boot loader(or something similar),run
7.you will get some response like this:
Root Access Allowed
INFO - Searching Xperia....
ERROR - Please plug you device in flash mode
you will get it multiple times, even a popup window indicating how to put your phone in flash mode.
8. unplug your phone and turn it off
9. now go to the directory where you installed falsh tool,drivers folder, and install gg(gg setupxxxx.exe)
10. now connect your device in flash mode(turned off, connect to pc while you hold the back button)
11. your phone will restart a couple times, just wait.
12. in my case the process ended when it rebooted in recovery mode(i had cwm recovery put in already),I manually rebooted, and voila !!!
BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED !!!!
13. run s1 tool and double check, you know, the cap letter and stuff, it shouldn't be cap anymore

As I'm a noob. I have no idea whether to flash the fxp 123 with our without bootloader. Anyhow.. as my question says.. I can't do ether.
odd,
i actually did the exact same thing and its fine here.
this is what your trying to do yes ?(below)
•flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
•disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)
•start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button

•now flash the wifi modules for dooms ck with recovery. (atm the update.zips are for xrec, but for sure please always check dooms kernel-thread if there is anything changed)
•power on phone again and if everything is right, read the line under that one
•WOOOHOOO!!! Here you are with unlocked bootloader, custom kernel directly loaded AND without reflashing any rom, means you have kept your current installation
a.have you tried checking the S1Tool to see if you can unlock ive seen people saying its just not an option.
b. what are you choosing to flash ? i actually selected kernel straight away on the downgrade part
maybe use the s1tool and post that so people can respond to that
No. It says I only have to flash the X10_V1_BLRelock.ftf, if I'm going to a custom ROM afterwards.
Have I misunderstood?
i guess its me misunderstanding
could you like me the thread where you got the file from or your guide
if your unlocking your bootloader i find it odd that the file says BL''RELOCK''
anyways this is the guide i followed and worked like a charm.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087&highlight=blrelock
the first post has the guide and my files were called the following
qsd8250 (zip file wich held the qsd8250_semc.bat)
wich allowed me to unlock the bootloader (this file had nothing to do with flashtool)
only used flastool for 2 things.
1) downgrade kernel
2) after qsd8250 was done unlocking bootloader to upgrade kernel to doomkernels V6 for UL bootloaders (was my choice of kernel)
That was the guide I used too.
"If you aren't keeping your current device configuration (because of flashing another rom after unlocking bootloader or anything else) the simplest way to unlock is to flash stock 2.3.3 rom, root it and use the bl unlock plugin from latest flashtool"
So i took the flash thing named bl_something..
---
As it seems that was wrong, can you give me a quick tutorial, as I didn't quit understand your way. and this one mention and easy way to do it if you'r going to change ROM at once.
tutorial read beyond the big text http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087
basicly it says this.
1) get the files you need
semc bat is for x10i and x10a. But only if you haven't tried any simunlocking
the bl unlock file from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1253277 - thanks to the_laser
Kernel up/downgrade for flashtool from here: - thanks to azuzu im using FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec
and a custom kernel for Unlocked bootloaders (since your unlocking it )
i used doomkernels v6 for UL BL
Wifi modules for kernel if needed mine had it built in
and then the guide tells you to do this
Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!
•flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
(i opened flashtool selected flash and then selected 'kernel downgrade' and in the other tab i skipped the 'loader' and selected 'kernel')
•disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)
(it asks you to do this and so i did)
1) turn off phone
2)unplug phone
3)hold back button
4)stil while holding back button plug phone in
5) flashtool takes over and you can let go
•start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button
(when its done open the qsd8250 file wich you unzip(ped) and start the qsd8250_semc.cmd)
•now wait until flashtool recognizes your x10 (if flashtool doesn't do anything, check third post please! thx)
•close flashtool and then press any button in the cmd window that the unlocking process starts (please close flashtool, instead the bl unlock cmd and flashtool are constantly killing and restarting adb!!)
•after unlocking is finished you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade
(same deal as the downgrade)
•now power on phone to check if the phone is starting after the unlock (if you are using a custom kernel yet with the bypass method and get stuck in a bootloop enter xrecovery and clear dalvik-cache, then your phone should boot up again fine)
•power off phone and flash the kernel you downloaded with flashtool
(the one you picked as said i used doomkernels v6 for UL BL)
•now flash the wifi modules if its needed with xrecovery. NOT FLASHTOOL!!!!
•power on phone again and if everything is right, read the line under that one
If you aren't seeing the se logo at turning on phone, but directly the custom kernel logo, you were succesfully. If you want to enter xrecovery you have to spam the back button now if the xperia logo appears instead of the se logo.
and thats it

And when are the bat file finished, it didn't give a clear message, so after a while i exited it.
the bat file auto exits when completed cant remember but it asks you to press any key again and when you do it auto closes
make sure thats done and make sure you do this while flashtool is closed
so close flashtool before pressing any key in de bat file
and i dont see an error in the flash tool info you posted ? how is it stuck ?
i dont know if it matters but i actually upgraded straight away to the kernel i wanted to use
so instead of doing the kernel upgrade delivered with flashtool i upgraded to doomkernels v6 ULBL
seems like your almost there
The upgrade didn't continue..
I'll try your method instead, as for the bat tool.. it's "stuck" at the *daemon started successfully*
ah yeah ok
its bat file first while flashtools turned of
then when it auto closed turn flashtool back on and upgrade
I don't think you understood my explanation
First I downgraded
then I started the bat
then I closed the flashtool
then I pressed "any key" in the bat
then it got stuck on *daemon started successfully*, and it still get stucks there.

I think you might be right.
First, after a while just having the bat file opened this pops up: "error: protocol fault (no status)". Whatever that means, and it get stuck at the deamon thing again.
however when I start flashtool while having the bat file open it starts killing the apb server because it is out of date.
now.. what is adb server and how do I update/Install it?
Also, when I get this apb server thing installed ( can anyone link? ), can I use FXP 123 to upgrade with?
edit:
I used another computer, as I was away from my main computer. I got no problem with the adb server there, other than windows defender, but I manage to allow it
now, back to the question above: Can I install FXP 123 as custom kernal? instead of upgrade?
Thats what i did but with doomkernels v6 and no pro lems here ... maybe just to be safe flash the upgrade first then your fx123 its how the guide told us to do it

Redo de wipes ... enter recovery if you can? Its the rom loadin not kernel is it?
Then full wipe
Wipe cache partition
And wipe dalvik cache or whatever its called
In xrecovery its in adv option i believe
Ive googled some more and dalviks cache alone might even be sufficient

To fully run adb u need to download java runtime environment and android SDK. The reason I think its adb is because it stops after saying starting daemon. This I think is adb starting

I just flashed this through CWM in an unlocked-bootloader sola (as the thread suggested) and then after i pressed reboot from the CWM menu the phone stopped responding to anything!
screen, adb, fastboot, nothing working...
The only responses i can get from it are:
phone vibrates once when i press power+vol up
red led turns on when i plug in the usb cable
It won't even enter adb or fastboot, so i cant think of a way to fix this
Flash mode seems to appear working but when i try to flash anything through FlashTool it wont flash anything with an empty error message.
check the device's id at the device drivers log --> FlashTool "check device drivers" log: http://pastebin.com/xfM2PHQw
FlashTool "trying to flash relock bootloader" log: http://pastebin.com/wJHrF7BG
PC Companion recognizes the device as "Sony / Sony Erickson device"
SEUS shows the message for unlocked bootloaders (the one that says it contains modified software or something similar)

i had that problem with my xperia go once. when i turned it on it would show the Sony logo, then the Xperia logo and restart...
when i tried to flash a new ics rom(the stock one) via flash tool it had the same error, but i figured out you need to have PC companion opened when using flashtool.(at least that worked for me)

The problem is, my phone doesn't turn its screen on.
I can't tell whats going on, if its on or not (im being guided by led colors).
And i tried having pc companion on while using flashtool which didn't help
My friend sorry to say but you should read that post clearly before installing that rom this rom is for unlocked bootloader only.
May you have not checked bl status whether it is properly unlocked or not.
Or try to unlock bl again from flash tool and try to flash from again.

First, use SEUS update companion to clear problems.
Then turn on usb debugging, unknown sources and enable connection to pc in MSC.
Connect phone, let it recognize, then turn it off, hold back button while connecting to to phone and the LED should go green.
Make sure you have the drivers installed too.
Tnx man will give it try

Root your phone and unlock your bootloader is not the same thing.
If you have root your phone,that doesnt mean you have unlock your Bootloader.
Root is what in your file system.while Bootloader related with the kernel.
For users with Locked Bootloader usually Root Phone and install REcovery(CWM).
For users with unlock BL...didnt need to root phone and didnt install CWM.Kernel is pre-rooted and built-in CWM.
Thank you very much. The problem is that i try to unlock the bootloader and it did not work .i also try to root it but it did not work too. So now i don't know what to do cuz if i unplug the phone from charge then if goes of cuz of the O% problem
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
So try unlock your BL first...either with official or unofficial way.
Why have 0% problem?this problem exist from old kernel...the latest kernel didnt have this problem.
Tnx man ,I have manage to get root now. But still can't install kernel. Cuz in flashtool when i boot to fastboot mode via adb, then when i click on select kernel to flash . I get error massage that this action can only be done in fastboot mode. Mean while the phone is connected in fastboot mode.

Hey dude come on there is not a big issue.. If it says phone will reboot it won't you have to reboot manually..
Whent it says disconnected and again connected. Means the flashtool finished the process device will disconnect and reconect for another process..
When ever you try to flash anything from flashtool always do one process and disconect the phone and again make flashtool ready for another process then connect your phone.. You have to understand how to use flashtool first

did you try to update the version of flashtoo to 0.9.11.0l?
Did you try to flash any custom kernel too?
How many threads will you open?? Try hard restart.. Check if all the drivers are installed n flash just official ftf..

I'm sorry, but this is another problem.What do you mean with "Hard restart" I restarted the phone already but always stuck in Sony logo and I installed all drivers before. Before this happened everything worked with the Flashtool and the Firmwares/Kernels I downloaded.

Custom kernels are only for unlocked bootloader. I though you were on unlocked bootloader buddy.
Also, when you try to install a firmware via flashtool uncheck the option "final verification".

This can be because sometimes flashtool asks me to install drivers and when I'm installing them then there is the error. I Can't enter fastboot because I ha ve a locked BL.
In your pc go to c/flashtool/drivers n install that exe.. And if you're mobile just stays on sony logo then let it stay there for sometime.. May be some error with TA partition

Yes it is possible without having to start up your phone, and yes i read thread but take note on what i was refering to in detail i said MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL and not {{MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_Global}}}. Either way just unlock your bootloader seeing as how u cant turn it on to get the imei their is another way with flashtool.
1) download and install latest Flashtool (Flashtool Version 0.9.11.0)
2) Start Flashtool and click on BLU button on the top its right next to the lightning rod
3) turn off your phone (Hold power button and volume up make sure it vibrates twice), connect phone to PC in flashmode(hold down volume down while connecting it to pc)
4) click on get unlock key button, it will switch you to Sony Mobile website, here complete all boxes
5) copy IMEI form Flashtool to Sony Mobile site, than you will get unlock code to your mailbox
6) copy unlock key to Flashtool window and than click unlock
7) connect phone in fastbootmode ( holding volume up while connecting it to pc)
8) wait to unlock finish.
you should now have unlocked bootloader. Then retry flashing the .54 i also say just flash .54_KERNEL and NOT .54_Global.
