Once u have the ftf file and flashtool
Install flashtool in any drive lets say c drive
Go to c / flashtool / firmware
In the firmware folder place ftf file
Now go to c / flashtool / driver
And install driver for xperia sola
Now open flashtool
( make sure ur device is off and not connected to ur pc)
Click on thunder icon
Select flashmode
Select ftf file
Check on exclude ta
Also check no final verification
Now click flash
Flashtool will ask u to Connect phone
Now pick up ur SWITCHED OFF phone, press the VOLUME DOWN button... Keep the volume down button pressed.. And connect the usb to ur phone
Flashing will start ( once flashing starts leave the volume down button) and let it finish
it is still witched off........ i just tried once......... Please help........

Is flashing is over???
If yes
Then try to start ur device

Xperia U bootloop ST25i
Hello everyone, I was trying to root my phone and followed the method using flashtool and kernel.
for someone reason flash didn't finish and I start getting boot loop.
I looked everywhere and can't find solution, I read this thread and looks I can get my answer here.
I tried above what you guys suggested but still no luck.
I am getting this error View attachment 2535917
Look forward to quick replies and thanks in advance
Solution!!
I tried on other laptop, turn off the antivirus and firewall to let the windows update the driver.
After you need to wait till the window pop up on flash tool instructing to switch off the phone.
Make sure the phone is off for 30seconds and thn hold the volume button down and switch on the phone,.
you will see the flash tool working and you are done
same error

Hey mate, I have tried it but didn't work for me.. can you suggest me something else??
I installed JB unofficial and got bootloop
took me two hours to install s1boot download driver which i believe sony sa102 ADB interface please tell me if its wrong.
Now i am getting the same error when i am trying to flash the stock ICS
Error - Error in process header 1 Incorrect function
Any help will be highly appreciated
Solution/Reason:
this time i added the flash mood and fastboot drivers on the same laptop.
I connect the phone and while it was updating i flashed.. I don't know if it was jus luck or the driver had some issues.
Anyways I am glad that people take serious parts in this community and share the information and their experience,,...

Hello all,
Please help my x10 mini pro is bricked after I flash gingerdx v21 . .how do i fix it. .seus doesn't work , my phone stucks in bootloop sony ericsson text . ..any suggestions? Please?
Thank you
Sent from my GT-S5360 using XDA
To use SEUS properly, you have to run the program, wait until it prompts you to connect the phone then turn the phone off, wait 30 seconds then connect the phone while holding down the back button. The LED will light up green and SEUS will move onto the next step. My PC is a bit old and will only recognise the phone after a few tries but it does eventually. The PC at work does it first time.
SEUS will check the software on your phone and then say that you already have the latest software available. Instruct it to put the software back on anyway then sit back and wait. When it's done, your phone will be as good as new.
You will lose the contents of the phone's internal memory, but not the stuff on the sdcard. But you followed the instructions when installing your rom and backed up first anyway, right?
This is what's known as a soft brick, when the phone doesn't get past the kernel logo (the Sony Ericsson text). It's a pain but it's easily fixed.
Check that you're following the above steps and, if it's still not working, let us know!

Hello ticklefish,
Yes i've done the steps above, .also with pccompanion to repair it. .it doesn't recognize too. .i already brick it at first, then i fixed it with seus, .i tried to install the gingerdx v21 . .
I'll give you a brief background why i brick my phone, . .I install the v21 ,then i reboot it after then, .all the stuffs really work great! ,i've done factory reset full wipe in clockworkmod. .the problem occurs when i rebooted, i've waited a couple of minutes then it stuck in the bootloop "sony ericsson text". .any other suggestion? I also tried x++ but i fail. .how do i fix my phone?

Being allowed and actually being unlocked are two different things...since it's allowed, go unlock it then try to root. It should work then.
Head over to the dev section and read the directions, enjoy!

Hello Everyone This is my first post on any forum ever, and I can only imagine i'm probably dong it all wrong. I know this is someone else's thread but i wasn't sure if I could start another thread with content matter so close to other threads already on here. I'll try and keep this simple. Fancied a go at rooting my xperia s recently, having previously successfully rooted a galaxy s2 I thought i'd have a go with my Sony. I spent a good amount of time reading the many various guides on here and was fairly disheartened at how little I understood a single thing people were saying on the noobs guide! In the end I decided to go to youtube and search a guide out there. thanks to user inamghafoor i successfully unlocked the bootloader the problem came when it came to rooting my device. everything was fine except when it came to the section using the command prompt to load the .img file for the version build I used to ftf file while he was using a .img file. So now my phones bricked and despite lookng at every page on here regarding sorting this kind of thing out i dont have a clue what to do. The problem is simply dont understand ANY of it, i'm way way over my head. I know I need a .img file for build version 75 but I cant seem to find one that works in the formate have been shown by the guy I mentioned above on youtube. I've tried using the xperia flasher but that and all its guides mean absolutely nothing to me. Is there anything I can do (apart from not be so dumb) or should I just bin the phone and consider it a lesson hard learnt? Thanks so much to anyone that read this far. If i have gone about this whole posting stuff all wrong just let me know and i'll close my account immediately and stop bothering everyone.

Hello. Thankyou for your kind reply. unfortunately i have read these pages already. They just dont tell me what i need to know. I have unlocked the bootloader. I think this is a job for fonefunshop sadly. I just cannot relate anything thats being described in these pages to the problem i am having or at least how it happened. They call me ultra noob.

An Xperia can never brick! :good:
Just press volume up + power to reset.
Then go into flashmode (volume down + insert USB at the same time) and flash via flashtools Gingerbread ROM or whatever :angel:

Yeah i managed to figure out the 3 vibrate turn off thing. I tried setting up the flash thing but it says x10 so i went to get some 2012 bits for the lt26i and when i go to open them ready to flash there's nothing inside that the flashtool wants to open. Plus with the phone just rebooting every 3 seconds it never gets very far anyhow.
Phone rebooting every 3 seconds??

Download the latest flashtools and download any xperia S firmware from development section.
The firmware should be in ftf format.
Place it under /firmwares folder in flashtools,then open flahtools and click flash,ok,choose the firmware that you've download then ok.
Wait till a pop up that tells you to connect your phone,here press volume down and connect the usb cable.
A green led appear and the flashing start.
When the flashing finish,unplug the usb and turn on your phone,will take long time to boot first time.
Done...
PS:use flashtools.exe not flahtools64.exe to start flahtools software.

Hello every one
Thanks to all dev on XDA for hard work to make our lives better by making our phones better
This is actually the thread of developer SPAWK who let me continue it further
A bit thanks to him who showed such a spirit
Detailed procedure for resolving a soft brick
Prerequisites
1.latest flashtool

http://go.apeboys.org/dl/ST27i_6.1.1.B.1.54_CE.ftf
Xperia SOLA ICS ftf
http://d-h.st/432
Generic world version
3. windows pc or laptop , in windows xp u may need to have pc companion
and other phone drivers installed
4. Usb cable
5. patience nd a working brain download both the things
1. after downloading of flashtool install it in c
drive of ur pc
2. copy that ftf file (of ur phone model ONLY)
and and paste it in c\flashtool\ firmwares
( delete everything rest from that firmware
folder... it should have only ur pasted ftf file)
3. go to c/flashtool/drivers and install drivers
for ur xperia
Also install fastboot and flashtool drivers from same place
4. now here comes the main part
switch off ur phone and let it b disconnected
from pc
5. click on flashtool click on thunder
icon click on flashmode select The ftf file
click on exclude TA ( if it is present)
and click on NO FINAL VERIFICATION ( always
present)
6. click on start/flash flashtool will
show preparing files flashtool will now ask u to
connect ur phone
7. keep the phone off press
the volume down button ( keep it pressed, dun
leave it) and connect it to the usb
8. u will see
green led bar on ur xperia when it is
connected to usb and process of flashing will
start once start u can leave the volume down
button
9.let it complete to 100% flashtool
will now show " please disconnect and start ur
device " just disconnect it and start ur device
NOTE - when u try to flash first time using this procedure... It may be failed because when u connect device in flashmode/fastboot Windows installs drivers
DUN WORRY.. Just give it a second try
GOOD LUCK

Problem solved :good:
While updating some app on my sony xperia z ultra, my phone switched off & did not start at all. Now the phone has gone into a bootloop & I am not able to use it at all. I have already tried hard booting the same (power + vol up key & reset button) but all in vain. Please help.

I guess it was an android update not an app update. Not sure actually.

Sorry but these questions are way too technical for me to answer. I guess it was an android update not an app update. The phone switches on and I can see 'Xperia' mentioned then the wave photo comes up but after that the phone switches off & reboots itself.

in that case I would use PC companion (the Sony software on the PC) and do a Repair. I cant remember if that will wipe user data or not...

Further, I cant see 'repair' option in pc companion.
the next option is to download flashtool (normally the second link in google search) and flash a FTF

Instead of pc companion you can download and install the latest flashtool.. and then download the firmware for your phone.. and it will also not wipe your data.. it will only wipe the application data.. if you dont know where to download the firmware for your device you can ask me i will tell you.. good luck..
