Try reinstalling the Drivers included with Flashtool.. might Fix the Problem
go to flashtool drives and install fastboot drivers
are you flashing the img from fastboot folder?

Don´t forget to unable unknown sources and USB debug.
If don´t work try to change USB connection on your phone from MTP to MSC or vice-versa.

thats when you are using root toolkits, which is not what op is using.

I'm really new for rooting and I found a tutorial on how to root neo v easily and it said to root it after turning off my phone.(the blue led notification).so how to change usb mode?
To get blue LED, switch off your phone, remove any cable. Press and hold the Menu button and insert the cable while holding the Menu button.
I suppose, for Flashtool method, you need the green LED. Do the same while holding the back button.
EDIT: I am sorry, you need the blue LED only

.62 Is not root-able u might need to Downgrade to .42 or Upgrade to .562 (ICS) version if u want to root Easily,,
However .62 is Rootable but Not VIA Flashtool,,,

It depends on what firmware you will put in your mobile. One thing you can do, just go to the search at the top right. search how to root your mobile. it's very easy to search it.
Good luck!

If you are trying to update to .62 via the Sony PC Companion or OTA update using your phone, it will fail as the bootloader is unlocked and there is no update support for those with unlocked bootloader.

Try out different ROMs

Hey buddy, since you've got your phone rooted, why don't you try out some awesome ROMs for your phone? They are quite simple to install and Neo V has quite a few modders . I'm not a big fan of Sony's stock ROM with all their bloatware anyway
Have fun

This still doesn't help on ppl who can't unlock it. Don't get me wrong, I just don't want to unlock it. I'm waiting for a solution like the X10 had (with "bypassing" a kernel and so. I still have a .apk file from Z which gives a recovery0.2 but that's not CWM ofc)
Does you tray CWM installer from Xperia S developement forum?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756346
I didn't try it because I'm not sure is it compatible with Xperia P devices...
I post a question in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841613 thread where I asked for CWM files. We can them easily past in wright directories as we have root rights now

I tried it, it does not work.
I have a SIM-locked phone, CWM would be essential.
Strange, I try to root my phone and stuck after step2.bat - phone not boot (stuck on fluid xperia screen)!

you can do a full wipe :
call *#*#7378423#*#*
Customisation Setting → reset customisation
or
fastboot.exe -w
or
use pc companion to repair device (this will also lead to full reset of the device)

You can do a full wipe by manual. There is an option to do that on Setting.

Rooting the phone is never safe, it avoids your warranty, if you are not sure about where you get adb driver from, I recommend not to root your phone. But if you want go with it http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/ download driver from here. Good luck with that.
