I'm a complete noob, all i ever did was flashing a ROM, so please don't shoot me...
So i started by reflashing 2.3.3 stock firmware. I downloaded flashtool and installed it on my pc (0.7.1.0). I rooted the phone and installed xRecovery. So now i wanted to unlock my bootloader to flash FeraLab 17.
I installed the s1 tool to check if my phone is good to be unlocked, and it says it's fine. And now i go back to flashtool to start the unlocking: plugins> bootloader unlock> run.
So all is fine till i get to this point. When i unplug my phone and power it off and then press the back button and plug it back in it says the following:

I have the same problem KingRafox. And i've tried several method including the link posted above.
Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!
flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)
start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button
now wait until flashtool recognizes your x10 (if flashtool doesn't do anything, check third post please! thx)
close flashtool and then press any button in the cmd window that the unlocking process starts (please close flashtool, instead the bl unlock cmd and flashtool are constantly killing and restarting adb!!) <--- failed!!
after unlocking is finish you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade
now power on phone to check if the phone is starting after the unlock (if you are using a custom kernel yet with the bypass method and get stuck in a bootloop enter xrecovery and clear dalvik-cache, then your phone should boot up again fine)
power off phone and flash dooms ck v05-fs with flashtool
now flash the wifi modules for dooms ck with recovery. (atm the update.zips are for xrec, but for sure please always check dooms kernel-thread if there is anything changed)
power on phone again and if everything is right, read the line under that one
WOOOHOOO!!! Here you are with unlocked bootloader, custom kernel directly loaded AND without reflashing any rom, means you have kept your current installation
If you aren't seeing the se logo at turning on phone, but directly the custom kernel logo, you were succesfully. If you want to enter xrecovery you have to spam the back button now if the xperia logo appears instead of the se logo.

I've followed these instruction but it failed when running the unlock file (qsd8250_semc.cmd). It says that it failed to get root access or something. (I'll post the log later on).
I also flashed to stock 2.1, downgrade the kernel and tried using x10 Bootloader Unlock Tool (with the big "Unlock Bootloader" button). But failed.
If anyone have any other methods or any suggestion, i'm all open.
Thanks for replying.
Guys,
I've finally unlocked my bootloader using "The proper method".
The mistake (i think) was, I was on generic 2.3.3 when I use this method.
I flashed back to generic 2.1 and ran the unlock tool. When finished I check back with S1tool, my device show "r" and not "R" Yeaa...
Note that, I failed to unlock my bootloader when I was on 2.1 and 2.3.3 using latest Flashtool.
Thanks guys.
Guys,
I encountered the same situation when I using the least version of Flashtool (0.7.1.0), it always display - WARN - Cancelled
So I roll back to use Flashtool (v0.6.8.0) then plugins> bootloader unlock> run, it works
i'm using FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec, flash without any error. Try find it. .
Guys
Make sure your SEMC SIM LOCK status supported by doom kernel (forgot about status lock or unlock cause I tried only 1 times and get lucky)
from my expirence.. some many devices will be locked for the networks and it will give you EMERGENCY CALL and you OUT OF LUCK!

What the hell, I'm still having the same "disconnect" problem as in the original post.
Let me ask you all if I'm missing something here:
1) I have a new, Vodafone-locked X10 mini Pro.
2) I downloaded Flashtool latest
3) I used it to root the phone (ok, it worked)
4) I use the Plugin menu, then Unlock Bootloader, then you know the rest.
Am i missing something here?
Should I change kernel or install a recovery first?
If only every device was as easy as the SGS's...
Thanks guys
try this

Thanks DJ.
I've managed to Unlock the bootloader still yesterday, i don't know why or how, but it worked.
The difference from my previous post is that I started the process with the phone already in flash mode, then reboot, then flash mode again, and then the Flashtool did everything (even saying Bootloader: UNROOTABLE)
My difficulty after that was to flash CWM. It's funny but that next step is not explained anywhere.
Are these the correct procedures?
Stock Phone > Flashtool:Root > Flashtool:Unlock Bootloader > CWM (???) > Flash Image > Flashtool:Kernel
It's strange why:
1) There is no CWM to flash from Flashtool
2) The kernel cannot be flashed from CWM
CWM recovery is built in to kernels like doomlords v6 multi recovery or FXP kernel. You will have to flash a CWM based kernel to get CWM recovery
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
There should be an install recovery button in ft which allows u to install cwm or xrecovery

Or flashing KCernel v3, got CWM recovery and Xrecovery in one.

First, use SEUS update companion to clear problems.
Then turn on usb debugging, unknown sources and enable connection to pc in MSC.
Connect phone, let it recognize, then turn it off, hold back button while connecting to to phone and the LED should go green.
Make sure you have the drivers installed too.
Tnx man will give it try

Root your phone and unlock your bootloader is not the same thing.
If you have root your phone,that doesnt mean you have unlock your Bootloader.
Root is what in your file system.while Bootloader related with the kernel.
For users with Locked Bootloader usually Root Phone and install REcovery(CWM).
For users with unlock BL...didnt need to root phone and didnt install CWM.Kernel is pre-rooted and built-in CWM.
Thank you very much. The problem is that i try to unlock the bootloader and it did not work .i also try to root it but it did not work too. So now i don't know what to do cuz if i unplug the phone from charge then if goes of cuz of the O% problem
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
So try unlock your BL first...either with official or unofficial way.
Why have 0% problem?this problem exist from old kernel...the latest kernel didnt have this problem.
Tnx man ,I have manage to get root now. But still can't install kernel. Cuz in flashtool when i boot to fastboot mode via adb, then when i click on select kernel to flash . I get error massage that this action can only be done in fastboot mode. Mean while the phone is connected in fastboot mode.

Hey dude come on there is not a big issue.. If it says phone will reboot it won't you have to reboot manually..
Whent it says disconnected and again connected. Means the flashtool finished the process device will disconnect and reconect for another process..
When ever you try to flash anything from flashtool always do one process and disconect the phone and again make flashtool ready for another process then connect your phone.. You have to understand how to use flashtool first

I'm sorry, but this is another problem.What do you mean with "Hard restart" I restarted the phone already but always stuck in Sony logo and I installed all drivers before. Before this happened everything worked with the Flashtool and the Firmwares/Kernels I downloaded.

Custom kernels are only for unlocked bootloader. I though you were on unlocked bootloader buddy.
Also, when you try to install a firmware via flashtool uncheck the option "final verification".

This can be because sometimes flashtool asks me to install drivers and when I'm installing them then there is the error. I Can't enter fastboot because I ha ve a locked BL.
In your pc go to c/flashtool/drivers n install that exe.. And if you're mobile just stays on sony logo then let it stay there for sometime.. May be some error with TA partition

If there isn't an other way to solve it, then I'll have to unlock it but is it possible when I can't use my phone?

Yes it is possible without having to start up your phone, and yes i read thread but take note on what i was refering to in detail i said MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL and not {{MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_Global}}}. Either way just unlock your bootloader seeing as how u cant turn it on to get the imei their is another way with flashtool.
1) download and install latest Flashtool (Flashtool Version 0.9.11.0)
2) Start Flashtool and click on BLU button on the top its right next to the lightning rod
3) turn off your phone (Hold power button and volume up make sure it vibrates twice), connect phone to PC in flashmode(hold down volume down while connecting it to pc)
4) click on get unlock key button, it will switch you to Sony Mobile website, here complete all boxes
5) copy IMEI form Flashtool to Sony Mobile site, than you will get unlock code to your mailbox
6) copy unlock key to Flashtool window and than click unlock
7) connect phone in fastbootmode ( holding volume up while connecting it to pc)
8) wait to unlock finish.
you should now have unlocked bootloader. Then retry flashing the .54 i also say just flash .54_KERNEL and NOT .54_Global.

I know you are not the only that had it. Could be bad FW file or drivers issue.
Have you flashed this file before?
What Windows version are you using?

Flashtool64(.exe) for 64-bit windows or Flashtool(.exe) for 32-bit windows.

Turn it off first, press power + volume up untill you feel 3 vibrations, then you can enter flash mode.

Hey guys,
first of all i need to state that i am an asshole. i used to flash kernels and stuff when i had LG optimus one, and i just assumed that flashing xperia p is almost the same. oh, i didn't know about bootloader. so, everything mentioned is totally my fault and i can't blame anyone but myself.
the situation is as follows: i install root, cwm, and then i flash sliding_xp kernel and MoonBreaker ROM just like manual says.
then, of course, my phone won't start - only vibration and nothing more.
OK, i google, and i find out that i need to flash stock kernel to save the phone.
OK, i install flashtool, and:
06/057/2013 23:57:27 - INFO - Device disconnected
06/057/2013 23:57:35 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode
06/057/2013 23:57:37 - INFO - Device disconnected
so i, like, have only two second to flash. i tried to do it and failed.
my PC runs win8 x64 and has no USB 2.0 ports, only 3.0.
i can't charge as well as it also disconnects after a couple of seconds. battery before flashing was about 60%.
any suggestions what can i do? i tend to try another PC, but i don't have any now.
@sciezka
Have you flashed with your PC before?
Jave you installed drivers from flashtool (specifically the 2 at the bottom of the list, fastboot & flasj mode)?
Try installing them following the steps in this post.if it doesn't work see the first post in that thread.

actually i failed even to do repairs with PC Companion with similiar symptomes (green/purple light goes off after a couple of seconds), but i did this with another PC. that's why i tend to do it again.
btw, but DooMLoRD easy rooting toolkit worked fine on my PC, but i guess it uses different drivers.
i also tried to do steps from that post you mentioned, but x64 restricted this modification. all i get is error message.

The rooting toolkit use adb device.
What you got error for the command lines or driver installation?
You need to run command line as administrator.

Don't even bother to flash untill you install the drivers and make sure flashmode stay on for ~45 seconds.
Did you install the drivers again in non safe boot ?
Is there a disable driver signing option in windows 8 boot menu? you can try that as well.

yup, i did. and i don't get any drivers errors here like i did on the other 2 PCs running win7 x64 i tried.
so, it's all just about drivers?

Likely.
Device is shut off with force shutdown?
EDIT: do you mean with windows 7 in safe mode? Win7 don't have safe boot option.

it flashed via CWM like normal, one after another, and i rebooted after i was done with CWM menu.
but it didn't boot after.
i didn't get much time on XP because those are not my laptops, my rommates only lend me in for a couple of minutes to try quickly. i didn't went so deep like i did with my PC.

I meant force shut down, hold power + volume up for about 10-15 seconds untill you feel 3 vibrations, then try flash mode and fastboot mode.
Don't flash anything just leave flashtool open to see if they are on for more than few seconds.

It's difficult to tell a boot loop that ends before the logo come on from driver problem, but worth checking the device is off.

actually while your advice was great, it appears that the other thing i did made the difference since after i reverted it i couldn't connect anymore.
my laptop has only usb 3.0 ports, but you can fix the way they work (i'm not a specialist, but i say what i understood).
in BIOS you cand find USB settings. there you need to switch off xhci and switch on ehci. that allows to connect like i need. maybe this could be helpful for someone else.
