Hi, I read the 'existing users' installation instructions on the Sspeed ICS rom and installed the rom without installing the ics rom and kernel (I was tired). When booting, I go in a bootloop with the doomkernel screen. I can access recovery fine.
When holding vol+ and connecting to PC the phone goes back into it's bootloop and does not boot into fastboot.
When holding vol- and connecting to PC the phone flashes the green led and then boots into bootloop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Press Vol up + power button for 15 sec till you get 3 vibrations,then use flashtools to flash stock firmware.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I have tried this before. When it gets to the screen saying connect your phone, when I hold Vol- and plug in it flashes green and then boots to doomlord screen, then loops.
Did you tried to flash the stock kernel with fastboot?
Try to install the drivers from flashtools folder.

Ive installed the xperia s, flashmode and fastboot drivers from the folder. Will fastboot work if the blue led does not come on?

No fastboot wont work if the blue led is not showing.
Did you tried to repair via pcc or sus?

Forgot to mention the phone has an unlocked bootloader so don't think that will work. Is that correct?

I know but gingerbread or ics??
If you don't know just flash any firmware with flashtools.
First you need to hold vol up + power for 15 second to turn off your phone.

Download a firmware from here and use flashtools.

Doom kernels are for GB not ICS that's why you have boot loop.

If you was on the latest sony firmware that mean ics,any region no problem but if you can find your own region would be better.

Download the ftf file and put inside flashtool firmwares folder anf flash it.
First turn off the phone( vol up+ power for 15 sec till you have 3 vibrations).
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
First turn off the phone and then plug the usb and flash?
Turn off,press on flash and wait for the pop up that tells you to connect the phone and now press vol down and connect the usb.

There is high chances of a system file being corrupted. Use flashtool to flash ftf fw. Then install any pre rooted kernel through command prompt using fastboot method.

I'm using Xperia u ST25i and had installed cwm recently. Then I unrooted and restored to factory settings due to wifi problem. And when i was trying to root again i was unable to as after restore the usb debugging mode got switched off and after re-enabling it and self restarting it it didnt get rooted. I tried to repair by reinstaling phone software via PC Companion but nothing happens after pressing volume down and plugging usb chord. Bootloader is locked. I have searched forums for removing cwm but unable to find answer. Please help!

So I installed this ROM and tried to update my CWM using this. After I flashed the zip I rebooted my phone and now it won't start. I tried Power + Vol Up but the phone won't respond. I also tried charging, connecting to PC and trying to get into flash mode or fastboot mode but still no response. Help please? :/
@nycdream you realised you flashed an optimus 4x recovery? OP said you must fastboot the kernel inside the rom zip. Ok so you checked that you have proper drivers?

You realy shouldn't flash the zip, fastboot would probably give you an error.
The zip wites to /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 which I don't know what it is for but probably shouldn't be touched.
fastboot had probably give you error

I would think so, not without special equipment and Sony's "bios".
I don't think they can repair such damage at service centers, though you can ask.
