Anyone tried flashing P or S roms on U?
Are there so major diffs that it would not work?
Thx
P on U might work, S on U is a sure soft brick.
Tried P on U?
Please don't do that . It's not worth bricking your phone!!

It's almost impossible to brick your phone so you can flash almost anything on it, if you know what you are doing. Simply overwriting system and data is fine, may get a soft brick bit that's easy fixed.
Just don't flash an FTF not meant for your device, the bootloaders are different and that will brick your phone.

I think someone should try P on U but excluding baseband and maybe kernel,partition table also.
Also Think it should wirk cause ist Same hardware, almost. Yeah Kernel should be U specific.
Anyone a hero out there and give it a try?
Thx
We are talking about xperia p ics right? Ics will not work on a gingerbread kernel...

Don't!
Ahem... the camera is different, as well as the screen size and resolution. The bootloader is different as well... it's a brick waiting to happen.

The screen won't be a problem, Android is designed to adapt to different screen sizes and the DPI class is the same. The camera, though different, seems to be powered by the same driver.
I've tried it already. All without success.
Flashing only system and data causes a bootloop. This is one option to be explored yet, since I did not wiped anything. A boot loop is a good sign. Flashing full Ftf causes a soft brick. Anyway, it's always possible to get in flash mode again with a little patience.
Can anyone confirm that the boot loaders are different? I think I've read something that gave me the idea that they were the same, but I'm not sure... Wanted a crazy tester? Here am I. Locked boot loader, by the way...

I recently flashed a CM9 based rom on my Xperia Sola,but after flashing its touchscreen stopped working,don't know why?I tried flashing .54 ftf via flashtool,it installed perfectly but it didn't make touchscreen respond.Then i tried it repairing through SUS but to no avail.Does anybody here know what would've gone wrong because i haven't flashed any custom kernel on it(yep locked bootloader) and i don't think that a rom can damage hardware(i know 'cause i have been porting CM9 based roms on my sola and they worked perfectly without any flaw).Is it the calibration problem or something?Don't know what should i do now.....
(Don't know why i went with Sony even when i knew deep in my heart that i would regret:silly

Yes the different device ftf may cause touchscreen fault due to driver mismatching/wrong kernel,but i was using Sola's ftf so that is ruled out.Although you are right that something different is corrupting the screen 'cause Xperia Mini had the same problem that was related to some rom flashing.
Or may be,the flashtool doesn't format all the partitions of the phone and there are some hardware files still lurking somewhere in the one of the partition thats causing the problem,but its just my guess.
I thought that only wrong kernel can cause hardware failure,didn't knew that a simple rom flash can do this,so lesson learnt:silly:

Hello!
I have the same problem with my Xperia Go. I flashed the wrong firmware (for Xperia sola) and then the touchscreen did not work. It's possible to use flashmode and fastbootmode and to lock and unlock the bootloader.
So i tried a lot of kernels, firmware etc. and the method above - but nothing work.
Can You help me!!

Try the method given above...i.e install gingerbread firmware via flashtool,switch on your phone...run it for sometime,the touchscreen should work at this point.If yes,you can reflash stock ICS on your phone.Thats it.You can download GB firmware for Go from HERE.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your help, but it does not work. I tried GB .62 and .84 with flashtool ver 6.x and 9.x with locked and unlocked bootloader. The touchscreen keeps black only the buttons responds (vibrate by pressing) a short time.
I think it's time for service center

By 'touchscreen keeps black' you mean that there is no display,that there may be some hardware fault,You should take it to the sevice center.

Does the touchscreen fault occured after flashing a rom/mod or after a physical damage?
If it is related to some physical damage,the solution won't work and you have to send it to service center.

Hi all,
I have an Xperia ray on GB 2.3.4 and have a major problem with the screen. Most of the times when booting up the phone, the screen is blank/black but the backlight seems to be working and I can still interact with the display i.e. slide unlocking the phone and can hear the sound as well.
From time to time, the phone works as normal but this issue is there as soon as I decide to shutdown/restart the phone.
Help will be appreciated.

Oh man. I got this issue too on my good ol' Ray. I think it happened because I dropped it. I also lost the blue led on the home button arc, now instead of white it turns on yellow :/
Anyway, has anyone gotten his replaced\fixed after getting this problem? I had the bootloader unlocked with the wire method (s1tool or whatever it was called), then I relocked it after I hard bricked it once sometime last year, I hope they don't notice it and replace mine under warranty.

But now here comes the problem. I unlocked the bootloader trough the sony's way/website then installed superuser from binary. en then i flashed by accident the wrong kernel, so now only the little red ligt glows up and that's it. im searching for a stock NL rom to fix it... but it also looks like i cant enter fastboot anymore the light turns up bleu but then after a few seconds the ligt goes back to red and the flash tool doenst recognize the phone anymore
so who knows wat to do now ? how to get fastboot/flashtool working again and the NL stock rom
many thanks in advance, because my wife isn't happy atm
i followed this vid for my S and her P
ww w. youtube.com/watch?v=TrP-IBuAeN0

Did the phone booted? If yes, then you have stock kernel. If your bootloader is locked, the use sony program to repair your phone. Ckick on update, it will probably tell you that it already has latest firmware. Click on repair and follow instructions... I dont think kernel override in this case is possible as flashtool flash the whole firmware.
One recomendation, always read the op for instructions and if its for locked or unlocked. But after this, you probably will
EDIT: if you are not sure, try to use flashtool once again. Do do same procedure as before.
ADVICE:if you want to use better kernel and roms, unlock your bootloader. Waiting till warranty end, your wife will not be happy anyway. This opens you a lot of possibilities and most important thing, her phone will fly for a long time. Im using stock rom and sliding kernel, awesome combination.

Thanks For the answer. Yes the phone boots but i see only the sony logo you always see. But not even the xperia logo That follows next.
Also the phone is unlocked with the sony unlock code and rooted with the patch from bin4ry.
But after a long evening trying to get the mod running, and after status 7 error after error i tought maybe its the clockworkmod. And i read the site 3 times but It appears i missed the part "for locked bootloaders only"
So yeah i won't make That mistake Again indeed
But i flashed several times the stock rom back but it stays on the sony logo and sadly that's it

kernel
Ok, get this kernel
http://rapidgator.net/file/76795117/kernel.zip.html
its from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029756
Hit thanks there...
Unzip and use the .54.
Switch phone off (power+volume up until 3 vibs...)
Open flashtool, click on that flash, select fastboot mode.
Now press and keep VOLUME UP and connect to the computer.
In flashtool press "Select Kernel to Flash".
A window will appear, choose the .54 you just downloaded and hit ok.
It takes about 2 seconds to flash the kernel, so no worries. Look into the main flashtool window, you'll see if the action wasd successfull.
Then disconnect and try to start, if nothing, then try to flash the stock firmware again.
Sweet thanks going to try This when in back at home. It looks very similar to wat iv'e done already. But iv'e used kernel B.599 or it was B.559.
So, ill Let you know if it worked

Yeah but this is about a Xperia P
so i guess that its better to don't try that. because they say DON'T use it other devices like Xperia U,P etc. only use for Sola.
so i hope u have another suggestion
edit f*cking retard i am sometimes :S the link for the P is in the description xD
im sorry for that !
edit 2
wel i tryed to flash the rom back. but it still stays on the sony logo and now i can only turn it of by hard pushing the pwr and vol up key and waiting for the 3 vibs to come. so its really strange i can flash roms and stuff but it stays on the sony logo

[ROOT][Including .54 and .75 update] Rooting Xperia P via Flashtool[only for ICS]
Sorry for confusion.
So for P...
Go to that thread. There are 3 kernels
Download them and try to flash in fastboot. Instructions in earlier post.
Or just simply try fix with pc companion. It use flashmode anyway (volume down and plug...)

Hello guys.
I'm new here, and i read this forum since i bought my Sony Xperia U, 2 weeks ago.
I got an ICS 4.0.4 on my xu, but i didn't like.
So i tried to get back to GB 2.3.7, by flash on flashmode.
The problem is, i downloaded the wrong GB version, for ST27i. My phone is ST25i.
The thing is, my touchscreen doesn't work anymore. I'm desperate.
I can't flash nothing again, because my usb debugging is off.
Anyone please help me!
I can't flash on flashmode. There is anyway to flash on fastboot mode, with usb debugging off? How?
Thank You!
K bro

Reinsert battery
Dun switch on

Dun switch on

Thank you ! Now i'm flashing my xperia u stock rom...then i'll flash the wrong, then the stock (st25i) again. Right?
I'll come back soon to make reports =)
Thank you very much again
This method didn't worked.
Can i try it again?
During the last flash, i couldn't flash the stock rom. So i removed the battery, then i got to flash it ..maybe didn't work because this?
To make things more clear.
I was with ICS 6.1.1.B.1.89
Then i tried to downgrade to GB, but with wrong ftf st27i_6.0.B.3.184. I couldn't even turn it on.
So, flashed another ftf ST25i_6.1.1.C.1.0_T-Mobile. Then my touchscreen get no response anymore.
Any idea?
Thank you.

Sorry..you mean it need root and adb?
A factory reset can help me?

Flash only a gb ftf. Or fast boot a kernel with cwm and wipe data, cache and dalvik and flash my Rom (nosh1t) that will recover your phone

Try what satya said
Nothing to loose
Sorry for late feedback guys.
I tried the other solution, but didn't worked.
I sent my phone to the shop, and they will give me another one brand new.
Thank you all for the help.
hmm

i also experienced that problem when i had that phone. the problem is that the digitizer was destroyed. went to shop and they repaired it for almost a month coz of the limited spec. they just replace my lcd with a new one but my imei is the same. so i think they will replace it haha.
Now i'm with brand new xperia u.
Just one advice guys. PAY ATENTION on the ftfs you'll flash! Be sure it's for ST25i, or you might have serious problems =/
Thank you all for the help!
