Hi, i have a xperia neo v and i want to flash custom ROM on it. But the fastboot commands are not working on my neo v.
adb commands are working but when i execute fastboot devices command nothing is displayed.
How do i get my neo v in fastboot mode ???
Power off the phone -> press 'menu' button -> connect phone via USB cable to the computer. Now the notification LED should have blue color.

Device not recognized
Hi guys,
Flashed my neo a few times allready, now running fxp since june. I flashed some roms earlier, but since a few weeks, my device won't be recognized when I'm in fastboot mode. My computer says it's there, but adb devices doesnt show anything. When turned on, adb devices gives me 123456789ABCDEF as connected.
Anyone knows what the problem is here?
Dears,
I bought xperia s and i want to root it, the problem when I try to put the device into fastbood mode, the blue flash for about 5 seconds then it turned off and the charging logo will come.
also when I go to device manager it stay for 5 second then it will disapper and I can't do ant thing
my device is not lock and I didn't post this until I couldn't find any solution
I don't know if it can be done or there is somthing wrong with the device
I tried to change USB port and cables + I used another computer W7

thanks a lot , it works great
I'm trying to unlock the boot loader of my Xperia U. But I'm having some troubles...
When I try to enter fastboot mode (pressing Vol Up + plugging the data cable in), I get a blue light (as supposed to) and on the Device Manager appears "S1Boot Fastboot", but my device doesn't stay on fastboot mode...
The blue light turns off and the "S1Boot Fastboot" device on the Device Manager disappears... This happens after 3 seconds after I plug the data cable in... and the phone enters in charging mode...
Is this a hardware problem? Or am I doing something wrong?
Driver on windows isn't installed correctly. Point it to the drivers directory.

How can I point to something that is not there (on device manager)?
Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.
Try re-installing the drivers after removing them and restarting your PC.
- If possible try to connect to a different system altogether so as to confirm if this error is not specific to your system.
Cheers !

That doesn't always work. Plug the phone in in fast boot mode. Should pop up New driver

First, I'm sorry for the wrong section, cooleagle. Will be more careful next time.
I already have flashtool installed, and I already installed the drivers within it. What left for me is try to connect to another computer.
For me seems to be a hardware problem at first, not a software.. but I will try your suggestions.
BTW, on flashboot mode it stays.
As soon as the s1boot pops up in device manager right click and select update drivers. Normally Windows automatically installed the drivers provided it is connected to internet
Tapatalked !
Fastboot driver is the android_winusb.inf file, right? I point to that, but Windows tells me it could not find the propper driver...
The thing is: no matter how fast I am on pointing to this driver, the device always vanish first on Device Manager... Is this normal?
Did the same for me when i tried the first time but i was able to update the drivers just before it disappeared. Also one thing that happens on my phone is if i keep the volume button pressed for long it reboots, if i leave the button as soon as the blue light comes up it stays.

i had the same problem back then
But that flashtool method saved my day
I've tried that method that you have to be fast to install the driver
But it never works

The flashtool method you mean going in C:\Flashtool\drivers and install the Flashtool-drivers.exe? I already did that... but still nothing...
And I release the vol up button soon too..

WOW!!! It worked!!! Thanks a lot, man!!
I was only selecting Xperia P, U drivers... But I didn't see that at the bottom is the Fastboot driver.
I hope this helps others! Btw, this information should be on the guides around...
Its not in drivers u have right ones, u need to play in device manager and u have only 3 sec. to install that driver...

The flashtool method is the most painless way

i was quite ignorant when i did a full wipe of my xperia p.the only thing in my phone left was kernel,it boot until sony logo and i could not find solution to switch it off so as to enter flashboot mode.....then i found how to resart(power off ) device that battery cannot be removed. just hold the switch off button and volume + until the phone vibrate 3 times. then you could enter flashboot/flashmode by holding the volume + / or vol - while connecting the usb....i still had problem where error appear during flashing and phone resarting....i install gordon gate flash driver on my pc....and the key for a sucessful flashing of my device was when i was flashing for 1 second i notice that a screen appear on flashtoll asking to enter flashboot mode again it so i quickly removed usd cable hold the power off and volume + button until 3 vibration and hold the vol + button while connecting the usd cable it work.
to resume you must install ggf driver and have to enter flashboot twice during flashing

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...
