[Q] ICS How to upgrade - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello guys,
I have a problem over here. I want very badly to install the ISC ftf file that is posted here in one of the treads but the problem is that my phone is rooted and Im unable to upgrade using the flashtool methode.
Maybe I'm mistaken the button that has to be pressed or something. When I press vol up is gets in fastboot mode and vol down is flash mode but after pressing that last the phone boots and can not get into the flash mode anymore.
Can someone give a hint?
Thanks in advance

Press power key +vol up+ vol down together until vibrate 3 times
If you want enter flash mode:turn off the phone then hold vol down button while inserting usb cable (make sure when you insert the usb cable while hold the vol down button) until light strange colour in led

I think the best is flash stock ftf file with flashtool!
i agree with Khalil last info;
prerequisites of using flashtool is the appropiate drivers and android adb connection parameter fullfilled and stock ftf file stored on you harddrive.. (i hope you have all of the above succesful) if not then search in XDA for the proper setup..
flash mode is using USB cable and mobile, mobile alone cannot go into flash mode...
sorry what are you trying to do ??? bit unclear with your theory of hard reset..
sorry for my explanation... actually yesterday onwards my phone is not turning on it's hanging on boot screen .. my friend says me do a factory reset or hard reset your phone your phone will be normal .. that's why i want to hard reset my phone. Here i saw some threads to do hard reset ... but they don't work. I know the method force shutdown and force restart .. my problem is stuck at boot screen any one know about hard reset please tell me how to do that .... thanks ...

buoy you will have to flash the ftf file using flashtool as mentioned by KHALIL................ It will install a fresh stock rom on your device...........
If:
-Bootloader is locked: Repair phone using SUS phone repair. Since you can get boot animation, getting into flashboot is not a problem.
-Bootloader is unlocked: Repair phone using flashtool. Flash any ICS stock ftf file using flashtool.
is flashing diiferent version can fix certain bug?
im running europe version ics on my sola.my problem is my battery %.ive done a lot of tutorials.but nothing happens.should i flash an indian version?

Hi, If your phone is hard bricked you can update the firmware through the flash tool.first you download the latest the firmware and put your phone into fastboot mode( press up+power) and connect the usb to the phone from your pc.and you can see the blue colour led blinks. then press the flash iconin the flash tool and select fastboot mode and flash the firmware.

Hi just want to say thanks for the Volume Up + Power, 'coz mine just freeze during the CWM Recovery when I pressed the "Choose Backup Format". By the way, what's the difference of "Backup" and "Choose Backup Format"?

Is the blue led still on, or is it just stuck in boot loop, or both?
Try to turn it off, long press power | volume up button untill you feel 3 consecutive vibrations.

You have to install the drivers first in order to get your phone recognized. Try pressing Vol Up + Power to shut down the phone. Hold it for 10 seconds and then enter fastboot mode and flash using flashtool.

SGP771 brick after unlocked and flashed 'boot.img' extracted from AndroPlusKernel v4

HELP: i had been going to flash MR by myself, but when i tried to unlock it and flashed the rooted 'boot.img' extracted from 'Z4T_SGP771_AndroPlusKernel_v4.zip', i don't get the 'supersu' on the desktop properly, after tried a few times, i did a factory reset, it now hangs on boot logo, there is no response to 'power' button long pressed down, looks it will power down until battery goes up, does anyone also experience this? how can i restore this?
The link i'm following:
cwm-twrp-android.net/download/sony-xperia-z4-tablet-lte/
it prevents me paste the outside link since this my first post, so i removed http prefix.
I solved it by myself, after pressing 'Volume Down' + 'Power', it reboots, and looks the factory reset did nothing, it's weird.
On the .260 firmware AndroPlusKernel v4 won't work. I had the same thing when I accidentally flashed v5. You'll need v10. Also, download this stuff from official sources, look in the AndroPlusKernel thread here on XDA.
So, get into fastboot in some way (I don't know how I got back into it, just hammered the volume rocker) and flash the correct v10 boot.img.

Hi,
to go in fastboot mode press and hold down volume up and connect to your Pc, the led become blue
To go in flash mode press and hold down volume down and connect to your pc, the led become yellow for a few seconds so you must be fast to enter the command in ADB

Thanks a lot for your comments, i have root it successfully, is there anyone made it to flash MarshMallow? i tried to update it with TWRY with officially binary SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_M_v01_2.zip, but it tells 'Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file', does anyone know how to survive this?
I also find a AOSP version 'AOSP_L_MR1_160113_karin.zip' from www.androidfilehost.com, but it only contains image file, i tried to flash them all, others(boot, userdata, recovery) are all ok, but it hangs at flashing 'system.img', i terminate it forcely after waiting for 20+ mins, the system boot up back to 5.0.2 after that.
If i use TWRP to install this zip, it tells the same error with the official binary, anyone know if this will work?

Bootloop with no working recovery

Hey there,
So I wanted to boot my phone to recovery (which i had installed some time ago) to make a backup, but the phone would just boot normally.
So i decided to install dual recovery from my pc. When it should ask me for root permission it didn't. I thought it's ok and rebooted anyway.
There is sony logo on the screen, then the screen goes black, the phone turns off and shows sony logo again.
I've dealt with bootloops a lot in the past, but How can i escape this loop if I don't have any working recovery?
Please, help me I'm really desperate :crying:

I thought about it too but I can't go into flash mode and make my pc detect my phone....
ah do u know how to get into flash mod!! press volume down botton and plug it with pc .. hope it works if no check if the z2 driver is really installed and flashtool drivers too .. hope u fix ur phone
Yeah I know... Everything installed it just won't do anything besides showing sony logo and restarting no matter what I do...
I think it tries to boot into recovery which isn't there
My phone was bootlooping the other day and holding the power button wouldn't turn it off. I found though that Holding Power + Vol Up for some reason gave it a few vibrates and powered it off.
When phone was off I could then hold down Vol Down and plug in for flash mode and reflashed the TFT. Good luck.

yes of course you have to turn the phone off before trying to start it in flash mode. the power plus Vol Up will power off the Phone after the vibrations. after that you need to keep pressing vol Down and connect it to PC flashtool
