what can i do ? ,please help me

Sorry dude...
For locked booltoaders...there r only 3 free options..
PCC
SUS
Flashtool
But you've tried all three so..If its under warranty, then goto the service center
Or try Wotan Server(paid)

Search mate...read the stickies.
You dont have to relock the bootloader...just download flashtool...ftf file of stock .62 firmware...install adb drivers and flash the ftf you downloaded via flashtool...everything is available in the development section.

Just find .ftf and flash it with falshtool, both are even in dev sections.
I already told you in another thread, read sticky threads, get to know with tools and after that go ahead with messing with your phone.
It's amazing how people don't know about flahstool, it's practically around every corner here..

I kinda doubt that, as link is broken. It can be easily fixed, but as it is it doesn't work.
And please don't shout, you do it in most of your posts

then do it again, it should work since you didn't use official way to unlock your BL, judging by your signature, right?

As you unlocked your bootloader via testpoint, Your bootloader is patched. So SUS or PCcompanion detect is as locked only, also your DRM data is preserved so you can use the Sony's track Id and PlayNow apps. Connect you phone Via SUS / PC-companion and Enjoy the Stock ICS ,587. :angel:
Please hit thanks if I helped you
Why posting a new thread if you dont search ??
Please use search and open your mind!

i also tried flashtool again but when i try to flash something it says that flashing aborted.. plz help guys as soon as possible :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Hi bro, why and how did you restore your bootloader? Seem lots of similar cases
Try to unlock again. And try to reflash Stock Rom with SEUS. You don't have to relock bootloader to flash Stock Rom, in what guide, which you follow, you read that?

Nope, donut HD can be flashed on locked/unlocked bootloader, u should know this.
The reason why i asked u how is : some users relock
their bootloader improperly, and it could brick the phone permanently.

That is bricked phone, so i ask u again :
How you restore your bootloader? detail pls!
Flash stock rom using flash tool. If you can't get flash mode in normal way try this. Take off battery, connect USB to phone, pc, hold back button, insert battery. Good luck.

I'm really glad to heared that bro .
To unlock and restore our bootloader we need to
refert to Stock Rom and Kernel ( Official stock),
This is really safe and eassiest way, btw we absolutely no need to restore our bootloader unless for warranty purpose.

i meant fastboot mode ^^
(1) Use PC Companion and do a repair.
(2) Download the relevant firmware file and use Flashtool to flash.
I will try this right now and I will report if it worked or not ^^

You need to provide a lot more information.
If you follow the OP I gave you in the earlier post, it works. Why are you using Fastboot??? You should be using Flashmode in Flashtool.
You need to ensure you have the correct PC drivers.
Again, assuming you have read and followed the suggested linked method, provide more info about your phone state.
And which method did not work? Us your bootloader unlocked?

How can I see if it is unlocked ^^ sorry im a noob+
Unlocking is an intentional act. If you have not done it before, then it's still locked.

oh okay. Is this really relevant? Because.. I dont know but I think, that the warranty void is damaged by doing so
It's relevant because if your bootloader is unlocked, then you need to use Sony Flash Tool to flash stock firmware.
So which method failed for you? And which step failed and what's the error? You need to give us more info so that we can help you.
