And hold volume up and power until it vibrates 3 times to turn it off. Also how did you manage to make it boot loop?

Thanks for all the help guys. I ended up using this ftf http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028139
as to how it happened, I unlocked my bootloader and somehow managed to screw up the Wifi. In trying to restore it I used a 2.3 based ftf. I realize now that that was a bad idea

Fastboot.
you cant get stuck on fastboot if your phone is not connected to the PC or am i wrong ?!
flash a new firmware via flashtool you can download it in the Android development section
to get the phone to flashmode press volume down, hold it and connect it to the PC , flashtool will recognize it.
then click on the lighting on the upper left and choose flashmode, then choose the firmware you want to flash.

Read the guide before you began rooting?
But there should be a reboot menu in recovery.. Try that or else you might have flashed something wrong

I got it... You must have flashed a wrong kernel for your phone.
Are you on gb/ics?
Choose the right kernel for your os.
Then choose the appropriate kernel for the firmware. (it's like .452,.45,etc)
Now flash the kernel through command prompt using fastboot method.

You can Install a kernel in fastboot only!!
1. Shut down your phone
2. Hold the volume down key
3. Plug the USB cable and release the volume button
4. A blue LED should light
5. Flash the kernel.
6. Enter CWM and delete all the caches

Did you waited a bit? It takes few minutes the first time...
Update fastboot / flashtool to latest version.
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and tell us the rooting status under Service info---->Configuration

Download pc companion or sony update service, click in sus on your phone, reinstall/repair firmware (something like that) and then you just have to plug your phone in flashmode again. It will flash the firmware (guess it will wipe data) and it should be fine
I've got the same problem as you. just download firmware for your device (search in google), then flash via flashtool.

What Was the Previous Version Of Your Android before Upgrading It to .587 ?
This Problem is very Common Among Those use .58 of 2.3.4 on their LWW before Upgrading.Just Remove Your SD card and Completely Format It , You can Copy ur music and other personal files But DO NOT COPY files created My phone like android , data , .android_secure or something simply copy those are of ur personal Interest.
Then Flash The .ftf from the link given below and flash .58 firmware and root ur device (if u wish but if not leave the step no. 3 undone and u will not be rooted) then upgrade using ur phone To .62 as a system update from the update center (do not use PC).
after that u will get a clean .62 Firmware.
If u wish to install the ICS please install it via Offline mode as it provides u clean install and no problem (i am using it)

Hi ! I got a wt19i Locked bootloader, no root. One day started rebooting over and over again. I tried flashing ICS generic and the resets stopped but only if I plugged the cellphone with the 220v charger. I tried flashing with flashtool other TFT, GB 42,58, ics .. all of these ones:
WT19i_4.1.B.0.587_Generic
WT19i_4.1.B.0.431_Generic
Xperia_2011_Range_FreeXperia_ALL (this is supposed to unbrick anything)
WT19i_4.0.2.A.0.58_(1254-1868)
Now the cellphone wont go through the sony logo.. I tried flashing lot of tft with flashtool but nothing seems to work...
also tried SUS, PC companion but nothing works.. Light led still working, i can connect it in flash mode so i have a hope for now.. Can it be fixed?? Any help?? No idea of cmw because i never did that...
Thanks in advance!!

That's wrong. You can flash the stock rom ftf on a locked and an unlocked bootloader
Have you tried changing the battery? Maybe the reboots are power issues? Maybe try a battery you can borrow from a friend and reflash the stock rom
