[STOCK][FIRMWARE][ICS] Sony Xperia Go ST27i FTF Flashtool - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I have made a FTF file of the original ICS firmware.
It might come in handy in case you want to restore the phone's original ROM or save yourself from a phone brick , just flash it via Flashtool.
Tested myself and it works.
For the newbies: while flashing it via Flashtool you need to press VolDow and plug in the usb to enter flashmode (green led), the image shown in the process might confuse you...
Sorry, download no more available.

Yes, I managed flashing krachlatte's kernel. Remember to unlock the bootloader.

If you have ICS (and Backup & Restore Application) in your device, you can root without unlocking the bootloader. Just go here.

[Guide] *Updated* Better explanation to unlock you bootloader.

Tip: if the flashtool not regonize your phone, use pc companion to install the SEMC Usb Driver
to let flashtool regonizing your phone.
howto do: use pc companion, do what it says,
if it says: you have already the new update, press recover, he install the SEMC Usb Driver,
then press cancel.
Now you have the Semc Usb Driver installed on your Pc/Laptop.
Updated with the new kernel from DooMlord.
read this carefully:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087
i do this:
1: Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!
2: flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
then do this and download this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256430
if it no respond just wait, i must have his superuser action regonize
then do this:
3: after unlocking is finish you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade
4: 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 X10_2.3.3_DooMKernel-v06-FS-BootManager-v1.4.ftf
with flashtool
now reboot your phone and go to XRecovery and install the zipfile: x10_gb_DooMKernel-v05a-FS_wifi modules
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
Doom his files:
Flash this with flashtool: http://www.multiupload.com/ISV5FMZHJ0
install this with xrecovery: http://www.multiupload.com/XMB0OO8PWH
i do it like this and it works !
Important !! If you are using the Unlocking Bootloader tool, just wait, do nothing,
He must get his acces to superuser, look at the letters/numbers in the tool
[*] >> run ADB in tools as administrator of x10 bootloader dont work, after that it works !
press hard but safely the Thanks button !!
succes !!!
p.s. i help a friend yeeyon1990 and myself and maybe more.
Its working !!
Thanks to:

This is just a rehash of the guide in the sticky in this section by lukas
It is not an easier method, using flashtool 0.4.2.0 is the currently the easiest method.

You can't run a gingerbread rom with the stock kernel! Thats why you stick on the stock kernel logo (sony ericcson). Read the first post of the rom you flashed carefully. Isn't there something like you need costum kernel, unlock bootloader first...
What Rom did you Flash?
I hope you did a Backup in recovery ?
Did you follow the install instructions? Full wipe... Tell us a bit more, so we ca help you

SEUS is the Sony Ericsson Update Service. As the name says, it updates your phone and repairs if necessary.
If you are trying to flash a new ROM, you have to unlock bootloader first, install custom kernel and then flash the new ROM. Look for the tutorials, they should help.

You need to unlock the Bootloader. Then you can flash a Costum Kernel. Use The flashtool, it's a Genius "one big Button Tool" from Bin4ry and Androxyde Thank and Donate to them. Read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10881307. Its a "How to Guide". The Flashtool you can get here: http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool I hope this helps. Happy modding
U20i/nAaCM7+Kernel/XDAPremium
Before flashing a custom kernel, be sure you meet the requirements to do so. I mean, sometimes you need a specific baseband version in order for the kernel to work properly

No it is the Homepage of the Flashtool. 100% real . But lets start from the beginning and please be more specific! Did you repair your Phone with SE Companion? Or are you trying to Flash over and over again? When you have a bootloop the Flashtool can't reconize your Phone

hm.. but update service will give him .62 not .42, right? or are you thinking on making prerooted image? hm now i got idea
@ prazadx: are you willing to do clean flash with pc companion or sony update service, then we'll instruct you how to make .62 .ftf, but it will be around 150MB after you zip it, wich you would need to upload..
then if your phone is sim-lock free your fastboot should be open, and it should accept prerooted .img.
even if your bootloader is locked i think it only matter for kernels.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong
its here mate
Just flash this with flashtool (extract using winzip or eqivalent first to get the ftf), root using flashtool, update OTR, install cmw and you are fine.

I'm gonna perform this flashing with flashtool. all i need is to downgrade my current firmware to .42, so that i can root my device. also this is a sim lock free device with a locked bootloader.
is there any other way to root without downgrading??
also, thanks mate..
There are another way to root but you need to unlock your bootloader, sorry I cant put links,but if you search right here in this Forum "unlock bootloader" you would see the options to do that.
Definitly this way is the only you have without unlockink bl. Thats all the peoplo say because I cant flash .42 on mine....flashtool stop always before 100% I will format pc...i dont know what other thing can be.
Any suggestion??

Hi,dude.
I think you haven't done enough search here on XDA,though there are really too many information to absorb all at once.
There is a great guy,akshay13071990,posting a Guide and I truly recommend you to take a look.:good:
As for rooting your phone on firmware .62,you have to flash back to firmware .42 or .56,and root it ,then update to .62 again.
It's kind of vexing.But if you want to have a rooted phone on .62(Gingerbread),that's it.
Or if you haven't unlocked your bootloader,maybe you could update to Sony's official ICS via PCC.
Good luck.
---------- Post added at 11:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------
Sorry I forgot to mention that if you have unlocked the bootloader,do not update your phone via official ways such as PCC or OTA.
Because it may brick your phone.

If you flash firmware, you loose all data, except sdcard. If you're just rooting though, you loose no data.

That's why you need to read the guide. It is explained there -.-
anyway:
Flashing firmwares with flashtool:
Install FlashTool.
Go to your flashtool folder, and place the .ftf file in the folder "firmwares".
Turn off your phone.
Now open flashtool.exe> click the thunder icon> select flashmode> adsp.sin should be selected> click ok. Wait till it asks you to connect the phone.
When it does, hold down the -DOWN- volume button while connecting, to enter flashmode (the LED should turn green).
The flashing will commence.
After that, disconnect and turn on your phone.
I believe Flashtool allows you to root the phone without having to unlock your bootloader or flash a separate kernel.
I used this topic to root, it is a little quicker :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701357

no fuzzing, it's ok

For full features you'll need root. But I think it'll still work without root, though limited.
When rooting, you don't loose data.

To use flashtool, first download the firmware you want, then check usb debugging in your cellphone (settings/development options). Now turn off the cellphone, then open flashtool.exe, put flash and select the firmware you want to flash (with termination ftf) now there will be an advice in the computer screen sayin to conect the phone, conect it by pressing the volume down button until a green light is showed at the notification light part in the cellphone then flashtool will begin to flash the phone and wait it to finish the process. That all I hope it help you, sorry fot my bad english.

Why not just roll a factory reset and update the phone via the PC Companion? Should be able to get rid of the crap in the phone as well.
