Hello,
As per title, I flashed a LuPuS-RAY-ICS-STOCK for Xperia Ray on my SE Live with walkman so now my phone cannot boot(red light indicator). Flashtool unable to detect my device now. Is there another method to fix this? Please assist.

Did you try flashing some other kernel or else flash stock Rom with kernel.sin if your phone gets recognized in flashmode....best of luck...

Take out battery, wait 15 seconds, insert battery again, hold volume up, while holding volume up connect the mobile to pc. Launch flashtool and it should detect your device. Now flash another kernel

[Q] Bricked mini pro, event cant flash with flashtool

I tried to flash nAa kernel(unlocked bootloader successfully before) with flashtool and flastool said it succeed. When i reboot my phone it comes up with nAa kernel screen and reboots again. It goes into an infinite loop within rebooting phone, only showing nAa kernel splash screen, nothing more and reboot. I can reach to cwm recovery. I flashed the latest MiniCM7-2.2.0 custom rom and wiped user data/cache. Same problem remained.
I decided to go back the original stock kernel and rom via flashtool. You know the rest; you select the stock files then press ok then it says "oh, ungplug usb, power off, hold back button and plug in usb again". I did this steps several times but flashtool cant recognize my phone. Not even a blink. The weird thing is, when i power off my phone and plugin usb(not doing the holding back button thing) the green light is on(it is not offline charging i know it) same as it goes into flashmode. I tried flashtool again with hope but couldnt recognized phone again. Even S1 tool cant recognize my phone. It seems completly lost!
I tried hopelessly with Pc Companion and get the same result. I found a post about "Gordons Gate Driver" but couldnt get any result with that. No tool can recognize my phone in flashmode, in normal mode(talking about the infinite rebooting state, not even a blink from flashtool).
Im out of ideas, even out of google . Is there someone to provide me with new idea? Or is there something im missing? Please help.
Thank you for reading my adventure hope someone helps.

You did not mention the model of your phone.
Always mention the model when posting.
In 2011 devices:
Press Volume DOWN key for flashmode(for flashing firmware via flashtool)
Press Volume UP key for fastboot mode(for flashing kernel)

I did mention that it is a mini pro in the title. Is there any other model info other than "mini pro", i dont know? I only know that it is a x10 mini pro.
I only know about back button thing, now trying the volume down key. Thanks for the tips.

Nope, it didnt work too. I will give another shot, i guess.
--------------------
Edit: Nothing happens. When i plug my phone with holding button(back, volume up or down) green led turns on. But flashtool(or others) says nothing. By the way, computer cant detect my phone too.

Phone is bricked in flashtool stuck on flashing loader

Hi,
I have the SE X10i, one day i tried to power it on and it showed the 3 flash red light, so i charge the battery and then tried to power on the phone.
The phone vibrate once and nothing going up, the screen stay black, no light at the keys.
I tried to install new rom via SERUS, it fails.
tried install via flashtool and it stuck on flashing loader.
As i understand from the flashtool the phone can get into flashmode.(back key and insert the usb cable).
Any help please how to wake up this phone alive.
Thanks.

In flashtool select the Rom you want to flash
Remove battery
Insert USB cable
When software asks you to press back, hold back while putting battery back in, should go straight to flash mode and flash

I suppose the phone is off now?
If so try: download stock ROM and put it in flashtool/firmware, start flashtool, choose the stock rom with wipe data, vol - and put USB in so you can enter flashtool mode and flash official ROM.

I've tried connecting sola to PC but it seems like flashtool can't detect it. Is there other way to connect it to PC so flashtool can detect the device? I already downloaded stock firmware
Still no luck
1) Hold power + vol up until you feel the phone vibrates 3 times.
Quickly hold power down, and shove the USB wire in.
It should detect your phone in flashboot now.
2) Alternatively, after the phone vibrates 3 times, keep a hold on vol up to get it into fastboot. Then flash the correct kernel for the rom you have.
Note that ICS, GB and CM roms all use a different kernel. Make sure you have the right one.
3) Lastly, if your phone's bootloader is still locked, you can just repair using SUS.

Sk17i Stuck at Sony Ericsson Logo

Hi I'm BrianXYap New to XDA. So I recently just rooted my Sk17i but didn't unlock boot loader. I was trying to install cm10 on my Sk17i.It obviously failed so I gave up. (Using CWM) when I clicked reboot system, I was stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo . I tried to Go to the recovery mode or any other modes but they don't work. Can You DEV's Help me? also when I plug it in to my computer it doesn't charge for some reason. there is also no LED notification light, is it because of the failed Flash caused all these things to happen? Help!
Flash stock ftf Rom via flashtool.
And cm10 needs unlocked boot loader to flash it's custom kernel.

Flashtool method
Download the correct firmware file for your phone at the bottom of the post.
Make sure Flashtool is installed.
Place downloaded firmware file(.ftf format) in Flashtool\firmwares(by default C:\Program Files\Flashtool) folder.
Start Flashtool.
Click the lightning button and choose Flashmode.
Firmware should appear there, if you have it in correct folder. Choose it.
Turn off your phone, connect USB cable to computer, then press Volume Down button and connect USB cable to your phone.
Flashtool should detect your phone and starts flashing. Follow the instructions.
When it says „Flashing completed“, unplug your phone and turn it on.

What volume combination and stuck at the logo mean? You do flashing firmware via flashtool with device off.
It said connect USB cable and then power + vol - .I did it but nothing happened. It's still at the logo. I installed an official firmware once and a blue led indicator showed up. Now it doesn't .
Be sure that the phone is off then plug the usb cabl and hold volum down key in the same time and your in flash mod then open flashtool and see videos on youtube on how to flash ftf files using flashtool and that should be over

do you really want a cm10 rom? then unlock your bootloader (but be mindful that you may lose your warrant and bad things might happen to your phone) here's the tut http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1879750
after you unlock your bootloader
flash your kernel through flashtool
then install cm10 rom
but if you want to go back to your stock rom
you need flashtool and obviously your stock rom (ftf file)
click the lightning-like button then choose flashmode
select the rom then you'll be prompted to connect your phone
hold the power button and volume down button at the same time until the led light is blue.
wait to complete and your back to your original rom
i hope it helped you
