you can download this http://www.mediafire.com/?pjpi4p56m90fmka
intall xperia neo/v drivers then you can also find there fastboot and flashmode drivers..
install those three and i'm sure your problem will be ok
Hi @bluestricker_21
I have installed those drivers
Flash and fast boot drivers are installed using the exe downloaded from the link you have provided.
Restarted machine
Still not detecting the phone in fast boot mode.

If it is not detecting then the problem might be your cable
Or usb port..
I have also tried with other cables too.
Please help.

You can get into fastboot without flashtool if drivers are correctly installed.
Stupid question: Have you already unlocked your bootloader? If you haven't done any modding before (e.g. flashing custom ROM) you might haven't done it so. That can explain why your phone goes charging when you plug USB cable instead of fastboot mode. Try also some Linux live distributions. Some of them have adb and fastboot included.
I have done flashing and modding.
But right now I am not able to put the phone in fastboot mode
I am expecting some helpful comments instead of asking me to search for answers.
Because I have already searched for those, came here finally.
Please provide helpful comments to put the phone in fastboot.
I am not able to find the answer
How did you unlock your bootloader?? I mean by which method did you do it?

First, you didn't provide importrant information. Which ROM you currently have, which one you are trying to flash, have you tried to update firmware via OTA, because there are some situations where you can accidentaly relock your bootloader. I assume you didn't brick your phone earlier with FOTA, like in my case.
Next, when you try to connect into fastboot mode, try it without FlashTool and open device manager and watch if it responds when you try to connect phone with usb while holding menu key. Fastboot is a command line application which can work without FlashTool (which is a GUI frontend to fastboot).
Second, you didn't read my post thoroughly. I suggested you to try a Linux live distribution, e.g. ubuntu. Just boot it from CD or USB and when it is ready you can connect phone in fastboot mode, just hold a menu key and plug the usb cable and see if blue light goes on. It will probably not solve your problem on Windows, but will give us some answers.
I too am facing the same problem!
Im currently using CyanogenMod 10 with the same Kernel which was pre-installed on the Neo V when I bought it.
I wish to change the Kernel to Lupus as it is compatible with most of the ROMs. I tried flashing the kernel with Flashtools and Kernel Flasher but to no avail.
Kindly help!

I have the same problem. I want to get into fastboot mode but nothing happens. The computer only gives a sound of connection the device and that's it. No blue led when pressing home and connecting to the computer.
How can I flash the kernel?
I have adb drivers installed
When I normally have neo running then there's no problem in turning int Fastboot pressing a lighting in flashtool

Hello, I have Xperia neo - Vodafone and im having some troubles with fastboot mode.
I cannot put my phone on this mode:
I tried in windows, with some various drivers, none worked, i never got the blue light, always green.
I tried in linux, same result.
Is not a driver problem, i think, i can get fastboot working with htc desire pretty easy.
I have read some post and some people say some xperia neo cant put fastboot mode:
http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/which-phones
So i could flash with other ROMs my phone with some flash utily, my doubt is: If this program can flash with other rom my phone, how it works? this program uses a self terminal and run this commands??? how it does???
Any idea how to unblock my fastboot???
Thanks alot.
Ehhm, you know that you have to hold the LEFT! hardware button?
1. Battry out
2. Press the left button and hold it
3. Battery in
4. Plug USB Kabel in
5. Blue light turns on
what left hardware button?
you are asking if i am pressing menu button(which is the RIGHT one of the 3 buttons) to enable fast boot????
-Yes, i am pressing the menu button while connecting the phone to the computer, also tryed your steps with the battery.
Yeah, you must press the LEFT Button, not the RIGHT one!
Right Button = Recovery Menu
Home Button = nothing
Left Button = Fastboot Mode
LEFT button for flashtool (green LED)
RIGHT buttor for fastboot or ADB. (blue LED)
IF dont work try reinstall drivers, safemode PC, another Pc.

Tryied with some OS in the same pc, tryied with other mobile(htc desire) and worked , so i think inst a drivers problem. I think its more likely the fastboot its disabled or something.

I think they are the same drivers, anyways i reinstalled a few times, and in ubuntu doesnt need drivers(same for the htc desire)
Fastboot won't work here either
I'm not being able to fastboot either.
I successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted my Xperia Neo, as described in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194823
It had 2.3.3 when i ran that process. After that i already upgraded OTA and right now it has 2.3.4. The phone is still rooted.
Right now, no matter what i try i cannot boot into fastboot mode. I have tried several drivers, i have tried on windows and i have tried on linux. I even tried using Xperia Reboot app but the result was the same. It either boots regularly or it boots into "charging mode" and all i get is the green light.
Please advise.
Thank you in advance.
hmonteiro, just the problem i have.
I also have 2.3.4 rooted.
I think it comes blocked by default and we need to unblock the fastboot mode, dont know how....

What differents is ADB and FASTBOOT?
Sent from my MT15i using Tapatalk
After reading a few scattered posts, i'm starting to believe the reason it's not working is because my phone is network locked.
Does anyone know if it's possible to unlock the bootloader of a network locked Neo, after removing the network lock?
if u find something please say here hmonteiro!
Obrigado!!
In order to get fastboot working you need to remove the SIM lock first. I was able to do it with the service provided by Alejandrissimo
Although a but tricky to maintain the tespoint connected, it went smoothly and Alejandrissimo was there all the way.
I have not yet installed anything but i can confirm that the fastboot program now sees the device and i do get the blue light right after plugging the phone to the computer.
Hope it turns out ok for you too!
Thanks monteiro!!!!, will follow that way, will tell you if i get it working.
Try to use omnius, google it. Then you have both ready, sim unlock and bootloader.
For sure and for 15 euros.

Hey....i don't think you need to switch it to MSC mode for flashing.... did you try to enter flashmode by holding "Volume down" button while inserting the USB cable into the phone ? Are you trying to flash it via Flashtool ( it is the easiest way ) ?

Yes, I tried to flash it with flashtool, but it won't recognize the phone, holding volume down while inserting usb, and the mini led light up orange, so... what else can I do? .. thanks
Did You switch the phone off before that?
Procedure is:
1) Switch off the phone (remove battery if needed)
2) Press "volume down" and hold
3) Put he USB cable in.
Do You see driver installation dialog running in windows? wait until it finishes.
4) Start the flashtool
5) Flash the ROM.
Yes, I did exactly the same, but it doesn't install the drivers

Then You need to install either Sony PC companion or form the Sony develeoper site the proper drivers.
Sony PC Companion You find here
Pc companion will install all the SE xperia drivers You need.

You have drivers in Flashtool folder under : \flashtool\drivers install them , and accept all of the installation requests by Windows . Or install official drivers from Sony or from Google's SDK source .

I did it like this: connect phone in fastboot mode, then i installed the drivers manually when this is not working plug out your phone install PDA net on your computer, connect your phone in fast boot mode and the program will install the drivers
Sorry for my bad english
when you plug in your usb while holding volume down key the led should be green not orange.
green led means the phone is in flashmode.

hi this not help ,any idea?
This may help you 90%... just try it
I also have bricked up my Xperia Neo V
I tried many tools but no one helped.....
Finally I got back my bricked phone back by doing following things....
download all the needed things you need to update phone with wotan X tool unlock, you will need
1. X_Unlock_Tool_Setup_Wotan
2. WotanClient
3. USBFlashDriver
you can get all these from wotan website.
also create an account on wotan website. NO NEED TO BUY ANY CREDITS
install all above mentioned tools.
then run X UNLOCK TOOL
then follow on screen instructions untill you get an error that you don't have sufficient credits.
NOTE THAT NOW YOUR PHONE HAS GOT A SIM LOCK CERTIFICATE FROM THIS TOOL. BUT THE POSITIVE ASPECT IS THAT YOU CAN NOW FLASH ANY ftf FILE USING FLASH TOOL. SIM LOCK WILL BE REMOVED AFTER THE WHOLE PROCESS.
now flash the desired firmware on your phone.
power up your phone
if it power ups successfully, then your phone will not detect your SIM card.
finally use S1 tool to remove SIM LOCK CERTIFICATE.
CLICK THANKS IF IT WORKS
BEST OF LUCK

I am using an Unlocked Bootloader Xperia Ray and it got bricked when I tried to flash in Cyanogen mod 7 for Xperia Ray...
Now I am trying to flash stock roms using Flashtool but it is requiring me to be in Flasmode which obviously I can't do it. I have done the steps but it wont recognize my phone.
I am also trying to figure how to flash a kernel but every kernel that I download comes in an *.img format but FLASH TOOLs require FTF file to flash the kernel.. how can I do it?

Hello Experts,
This was the best phone I ever owned. It has best in class features (camera, touch, perf ..n ofcourse cost etc.). After the eight month of mighty use i got notification from "SUS" that ICS is now available on your device. Tried Upgrading but in next hour it was showing me touch/hang issues. So reverted back to 2.3* GB.
After a month someone said try manual upgrade of 4.0 using SE flashtool. Tried and result was almost same just that this time it was random.
Again thought of going back to GB. It worked. Used Device for another month without issues. And one night suddenly it went dead. Thought that could be the case of out charge. Did Charge using USB Cable/Power cord method but result was same. It never booted after that.
One day thought of connecting my car charger then it shown "RED" LED indicator. searched on google, someone said battery issue. Tried replacing battery with same model phone which my friend owns. But Result was same.
Finally went to Sony Service Center (Pune, India). They said phone cannot be recovered. I asked them to replace whatever it takes Upto.
Since phone was brought up from import method i couldnt claim warranty.
Sorry for the long email, now question to the experts here
1.) Can this phone recovered? I tried SUS/Flashtool my phone is not getting detected.
2.) Is there any possibility that Motherboard/chips can be replaced to get this phone into functional state.
3.) Anything else can be suggested. (Except buying new phone . i already own Spice CSLMI410)

guess it was sorking anyway, it looks your kernel is fine, so check in flashtool if the device connects not in drivers list
if it doesnt connect, unpack ftf you can see some system,data and so on image files flash them via fastboot(unlock bootloader)
if when you press and hold the volume down button while pluging the usb cable in, green light just lights up, it means there is hope bro :good: I believe after that, you need to go to a folder named something like "x10_libraries" in the flashtool folder and need to find fastboot.exe. oh, at the same time, you should download a kernel suitable for you device which includes cwm recovery and copy that .img file to the same folder from the last sentence. then you should write(in cmd of course) "fastboot flash boot something.img". I believe it'll work, at least no harm to try and I guess this is the last possibility for your beloved xpeia...
Hi, people
I have a Neo V MT11i 4.1.B.0.587, it's rooted and BL Unlocked, i'm trying to flash a <kernel>.img file, but everytime i try to go into fastboot mode (pressing home button, pressing volume + button, entering through flashtool into fastboot...) the blue led appears for just a few seconds and then starts to charge the battery.
Can anyone help me?
Download and install flashtool, or download kernel flasher. I'm using flashtool which is really easy to use.
Switch the phone off.
In kernel flasher, follow the screen instructions.
In flashtool click the ray icon and select fastboot.
With the phone switched off, press menu button and connect it to the computer with the USB cable
On flashtool, you can check the status on the window.

Can you access your phone through adb from your computer?

To go to flashmode on flashtool you need to put the firmware on the correct folder. Where have you placed the ftf file?
Do you have unlocked bootloader?
If not, then fastboot is not for you and have option to use Pc Companion to repair your software if the problem is in there.
Did you install flashmod drivers for your phone?
What happen if you connect your phone switched off with hold down the button volume - and connect in the same time usb cabel to the phone?
Did you see green light?

but the ftf file is loading perfectly, the problem is when it says to connect the phn and doesnt detect it .
i connected the usb holding the vol down button and the red led turned into green, but the pc starts showing usb device not recognised.

Do you have unlocked bootloader?
If not, then fastboot is not for you and have option to use Pc Companion to repair your software if the problem is in there.
Did you install flashmod drivers for your phone?
What happen if you connect your phone switched off with hold down the button volume - and connect in the same time usb cabel to the phone?
Did you see green light?

no bootloader is locked.
it had the original stock firmware without any modification(not even rooted) before it went dead.
the same thing happens with pc companion it doesnt detect the phn.
and yes the green light turns on.
Like i say before. Don't wait Pc companion to recognise your phone.
Just turn off the phone, charge it good, after that connect with Companion WITHOUT turn on the phone or what you want and continue with the steps.
Doesnt flash mode work even with a locked bootloader?
Maybe you haven't installed USB drivers. Go to local disk C then flash tool and then open drivers and install the drivers for your device.
And then check flash boot again.

Flashmod is for device with locked bootloader and flash on stock files.
Fastboot is for device with unlocked bootloader and for flash on custom / different from stock files.
Fastboot will not do the work after the author has locked buuloader.
Better use Flashtool with flashmode or Sony Pc Companion or Xperia Comapnion, again with flashmod / green light.

Have you disabled driver verification in your advanced start up settings?

and thats why fastboot drivers are working fine.
It is normal to not recognize the phone after not loaded operating system.
In the video I will share, will also see that there are unknown devices, but this is the menu models to indicate the program right model and proceed to download and install the software.
Just try it, if i understand you.

i wanted to know whether battery>50% is important in this procedure, bcz i already tried this but bcz whenever i try to charge it it boots to the sony logo and gets stuck there and then i have to again reset it by pressing the power and volume down button.So i dont even know whether it charges or not?
