My phone is not being detected by flash tool in flashmode. I even reinstalled it and i 've installed the flashtool drivers as well. Im running 4.0.4 and i wanted to root it. So thought of flashing 4.0.3 kernel, root it and then flash 4.0.4 kernel. But it is not detected.
Any thoughts pls?

Hello,
I rooted my mobile way back in b.1.10. Yesterday I flashed indian firmware of b.1.54 & somehow my mobile had no root permissions any more. But the bootloader is still unlocked as I've checked. I want root permissions & I've found out that rooting is only possible if I downgraded to b.1.10 firmware.
Now am unable to install flashmode drivers. It did not ask me for these drivers yesterday when I flashed b.1.54.
How do I install them? Whenever i prepare flashtool for b.1.10.ftf to flash & switch off, connect my mobile in flashmode, it stays in flashmode for 3 seconds & skips into regular mode & there's an error message in flashtool.
How to install flashmode drivers?
Please help
Thanks

I bricked my phone. I had my phone rooted and installed a modified rom based on .89 compilation. I wanted to change to one based on the 100, and after install it I lost install this kernel root. Then I tried to root the phone again but the flashtool did not recognize the phone. I was advised to do so through the Fasttool and I did. I installed the drivers for fastboot and then I did:
fastboot flash boot boot.img (boot.img was along with the rest of fastboot files). After "fastboot reboot" and the phone was shut down and no longer has reignited.
Now the only thing that appears is a green light turns off immediately and nothing else. The flashtool still do not acknowledge either the computer now.
Can you help?
Try to flash stock firmware again if flashtools doesn't recognize the phone try to restart your pc after install the driver. I have this problem before .and it still connect 2 flash mode. If that doesn't work try on another pc

It's an Xperia U. Now only the frontal red light comes on when I plug the computer. The LEDs do not light neither with vol + or vol -..
Take the battery out for a minute and try flash mode or fastboot mode again.
Do not just plig it to the PC before you do.
Please try this proven way to install fast boot and flash drivers

It's fixed. In a laptop with windos xp I tried to follow the last instructions of nosmaster but could not install fastboot drivers. Then I decided to install PC Companion to see if this installed the drivers from the phone directly and not only installed the drivers but updated the phone and finally returned to work.
Thanks to all
Good to hear its sorted
Did u stop force driver signing within windows 7 or 8

Hey guys, before i start i like to say that i searched the forum at least 2 hour and other sites as well. My problem is;
my phone (Xperia Neo V) got stuck in bootloop when i was refreshing the mails in gmail app and it asked me to refresh automatically and i said yes after i said res it got stuck.
I tried to enter the recovery with volume buttons and home key and tapping the screen it didn't work. My phone was rooted and i was using a custom 4.0.4 rom (Unfortunately i didnt remember the name of the rom since i was using it over a year with no problem).
I also tried flashtool and sus from sony website both of them didn't recognise my phone when i plugged in the computer. Even my computer doesn't recognize my phone at all.
So here i am helpless, seeking for a help?
Is fastboot or flashmode working? If fastboot working, flash any other custom ics kernel like suave and flash the rom again.. It has custom recovery.. If flashmode working, flash stock ftf using flashtool.. You will lose root but your phone will boot up for sure..

1)Just download the .ftf file
2)Install drivers from flashtool>drivers folder, during installation don't forget to tick flashboot option
3)move the .ftf file to firmware folder of flashtool
4)start flashtool and turn on mobile and connect with USB
5)click on bolt sign and go flash boot,disconnect mobile and connect in flshboot mode(holding back button put in USB)
6)it will flash it self, done... If I helped u please give me thanks :thumbup:

If you want fastboot -As long as it show blue led which is for fastboot then it's okay
If you want flashmode -As long as it show green led which is for flashmode then it's totally okay just proceed to the next steps ( flash ftf )
Blue for fastboot
Green for flashmode
try rebooting into fastboot via adb...
hello like the title said
i cant seem to enter flashmode. fastboot and recovery works fine tho
i was trying to install stock rom, xperia companion app and flashtool doesnt help
flashtool said something like usb debugging off, and 2011 devices bla bla (usb debugging IS NOT OFF its ON) tried 2 different version the 9.18 and 9.2
the green light did light up only like 1s then off then light up again then its gone for good
after that the phone connected to pc and recognized as somc flash device but not recognized by flashtool or xperia companion
first off all its not really a problem because i can still go to fastboot and recovery to flash ROM
but since i want to revert to stock rom (not modified,rooted or anything)
can someone guide me how to fix it? i tried 2 pc + a laptop, flashmode still not detected
Same problem
I'am with same a problema, u have a solution?
You have to wait for flashtool to ask you to connect your phone in flashmode and that is after you've loaded your firmware to flash
Your phone will only stay in flashmode (green led) whilst it is receiving data if it is not receiving data it will switch off after a few second's
