So you install the latest flashtool version. Afterwards you download the gingerbread (or ics) ftf for your device. You install all drivers from flashtool installation folder> drivers. Now you launch flashtool, click on the flash, select flashmode and choose the ftf. Now turn phone off, hold volume up and while holding plug in pc. Don't turn phone on, just connect while holding volume down. Flashtool will automaticly flash the ftf.
Just restart and see what happens

How about flashing a custom kernel with cwm (flash again if you already have one) , remove memory card, don't try to boot into the Rom! Just boot into cwm wipe everything! (cache/dalvik/data/system/batterystats) literally wipe everything you could wipe . Then flash the generic firmware for your phone. I think that should do the trick.

my phone was sk17i with ICS and locked boot loader.. i rooted my phone and installed custom ROM given here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991371
but after installation it is showing a menu for selecting language..but am not able to select next option because my touch screen is not working.. i tried flashing with sk17i firm ware but showing same screen.. and i tried many times to enter into the cwm recovery mode .. but phone is getting started as usual without entering into recovery mode. I first entered into recovery mode with an option "automatically reboot and recovery" option in as software called x-part.. what should i do now.. please help me.. am in trouble..
Install cwm using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346190, then wipe everything (especially mounts/storage /system partition) and re-install. are you sure you made the correct choices in aroma installer? if touch is not working you probably installed the version for some other model or made wrong choice where it asks if bootloader is locked or unlocked.

LOCKED bootloader...please help.. how can i go back.. can't even enter into cwm
Reflash stock ftf firmware using flashtools, you will probably loose root after that and will have to repeat the rooting procedure. Then you can re-install the rom making the correct choices

Nah, unlocking bootloader is needless. Just use Sony Update Service / Flashtool to reflash the firmware. Then root and reinstall the ROM again.
i again installed GB Rom and rooted again and then again installed the HD custom ROM(the one i mentioned in above link) and selected se mini pro in aroma installer and even after installation SE logo is showing and then screen is black.. why it is like that???

You SHOULD have updated the kernel according the instructions in the ROM-threads, which you failed to do. Now I guess you've flashed the x10blrelock.ftf? In that case, your phone needs a JTAG.

okay, 1st, you need to get your phone alive again by flashing a stock rom. i suggest you follow this tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/general/how-to-resolve-softbrick-upgrade-to-ics-t2023135
The link to flash tool is dead i think, so you can download the latest flashtool here:
http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
follow Dr droid instructions word for word and you'll be fine. It saved my Sola last year, and it will save your XP.
Keep flashtool installed, because you can use it to unlock your bootloader. Just get the phone running first.
Good luck....
