Xperia neo v fast boot problem - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hi guys,
I want to upgrade my neo v to 4.1 and this is the first time i'm doing it (rooting etc.) i;ve made it up till boot loader , now here i get problem with the fast boot mode.I've checked the flash mode and disconnected cable and then fast boot mode , it doesn't reboot. Flash tool detected that it is in fast boot mode. Now i just can't detect where i've made mistake.

Sorry but I don't see what is the actual problem here?
What do you mean it doesn't reboot?

Ohk! then can you let me know what does it mean by restart in fastboot mode , we have to do that by pressing menu button ha ?

You have the flashtool running and your phone switched off and disconnected. You connect the phone to the PC (using the USB cable) while pressing the menu button. You will see the blue led on and the flashtool we'll tell you the phone is connected in fastboot mode

Ok, looks like we aren't getting anywhere..
Explain, with EXACT steps in each of this 3:
1) what you wanna do?
2) what are you doing?
3) what is happening?
Provide screenshoots if you need.

OK , then i'm doing this process all over again from the fist
i've made factory reset and do we need to place those files ( super jelly bean , g apps/ xtreme bean , ..etc) on to sd card directly or we need to extract and place them in a folder sort of thing ?

I've loaded those adb drives used all meathods to unlock bootloader everything is fine i tried via flash tool ...... i do get that till i enter that unlock code and after that it says restart in fast boot mode (i don't understand how to restart it in this mode) .... and then i tried via cmd, connected via fast boot mode ... everything done perfectly but it says <waiting for device> . I've rooted this thing , but i'm not able to unclock bootloader. And through that wires sort of thing, it's quite difficult coz i'm not familiar with phone hardware parts.

OK. let's go step by step.
1. You have already unlocked the bootloader?
Tap: *#*#7378423#*#*
Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status.
If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then the boootloader is not unlocked yet, but you can do it. Follow the guide step by step.
If it says No, then no way you cannot unlock. Do some search on XDA. I know other people faced the same problem, but don't know if they could solve it.
2. This the Sony webpage for unlocking: http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
It's the easiest way.
Note. On XDA you can find another method for unlocking, if status is YES.

Yes tried bro, but in CMD it says <waiting for device> , ive loaded all those adb driver etc.., do i need to unroot and do that thing ? or anyone outside does that ?

Can´t access bootloader, to install 2.3

Hi, i've tried two ways to unlock bootloader, by Flashtool and Xrecovery.
With flashtool I didn't get the message "Successfully applied unlock" but the phone rebooted anyway.
I triede pressing several times, the back button when the sonnyericson letters appear, tried always pressing and nothing.
Can anyone help me.
I can supply the flashtool log if necessary.
Thx
Anyone??? Do I have to do it all over again? What's the best way to re-do it?

you mean you cannot access the x-recovery right..?? try the tool in my signature n install the CWM recovery from it.. After installing CWM recovery with the tool reboot your phone.. press the back button when sony ericsson logo comes and your done.. you can now flash Custom ROM's with CWM recovery..
Also, double check which baseband you have. It should end in x015 (x being the rest of the number). If not then you'll need to flash to the correct version. My minipro wouldnt enter xrecovery/cwm until it had been flashed to it, like you the backbutton did nothing and I couldnt find a solution for a few days.
My phone came shipped with android 1.6 and previous baseband. If you look around the forum for basebands you should be able to find it. Flash with flashtool.

Having the problem it iscoolbutton.ocx, tried the fix and still the sameproblem. My baseband ends in 15. When I run the Flashtool it gives this message:

I found the solution for my problem, I hope it helps somebody else.
steps:
1. download Flashtool-0.5.0.0beta (ask me if you want a link)
2. download s1tools (version doesn't matter)
3. install flashtool, and restart your computer (don't install gordon's gate yet0
4. plug in your turned on x10 mini(it needs to be in usb debug mode as well)
5. wait for flashtool to recognize it
6. on the menu click on plugins,unlock boot loader(or something similar),run
7.you will get some response like this:
Root Access Allowed
INFO - Searching Xperia....
ERROR - Please plug you device in flash mode
you will get it multiple times, even a popup window indicating how to put your phone in flash mode.
8. unplug your phone and turn it off
9. now go to the directory where you installed falsh tool,drivers folder, and install gg(gg setupxxxx.exe)
10. now connect your device in flash mode(turned off, connect to pc while you hold the back button)
11. your phone will restart a couple times, just wait.
12. in my case the process ended when it rebooted in recovery mode(i had cwm recovery put in already),I manually rebooted, and voila !!!
BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED !!!!
13. run s1 tool and double check, you know, the cap letter and stuff, it shouldn't be cap anymore

[Q] [Noob] Bootloader unlocking via Flashtool not working

I'm a complete noob, all i ever did was flashing a ROM, so please don't shoot me...
So i started by reflashing 2.3.3 stock firmware. I downloaded flashtool and installed it on my pc (0.7.1.0). I rooted the phone and installed xRecovery. So now i wanted to unlock my bootloader to flash FeraLab 17.
I installed the s1 tool to check if my phone is good to be unlocked, and it says it's fine. And now i go back to flashtool to start the unlocking: plugins> bootloader unlock> run.
So all is fine till i get to this point. When i unplug my phone and power it off and then press the back button and plug it back in it says the following:

I have the same problem KingRafox. And i've tried several method including the link posted above.
Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!
flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool
disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)
start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button
now wait until flashtool recognizes your x10 (if flashtool doesn't do anything, check third post please! thx)
close flashtool and then press any button in the cmd window that the unlocking process starts (please close flashtool, instead the bl unlock cmd and flashtool are constantly killing and restarting adb!!) <--- failed!!
after unlocking is finish you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade
now power on phone to check if the phone is starting after the unlock (if you are using a custom kernel yet with the bypass method and get stuck in a bootloop enter xrecovery and clear dalvik-cache, then your phone should boot up again fine)
power off phone and flash dooms ck v05-fs with flashtool
now flash the wifi modules for dooms ck with recovery. (atm the update.zips are for xrec, but for sure please always check dooms kernel-thread if there is anything changed)
power on phone again and if everything is right, read the line under that one
WOOOHOOO!!! Here you are with unlocked bootloader, custom kernel directly loaded AND without reflashing any rom, means you have kept your current installation
If you aren't seeing the se logo at turning on phone, but directly the custom kernel logo, you were succesfully. If you want to enter xrecovery you have to spam the back button now if the xperia logo appears instead of the se logo.

I've followed these instruction but it failed when running the unlock file (qsd8250_semc.cmd). It says that it failed to get root access or something. (I'll post the log later on).
I also flashed to stock 2.1, downgrade the kernel and tried using x10 Bootloader Unlock Tool (with the big "Unlock Bootloader" button). But failed.
If anyone have any other methods or any suggestion, i'm all open.
Thanks for replying.
Guys,
I've finally unlocked my bootloader using "The proper method".
The mistake (i think) was, I was on generic 2.3.3 when I use this method.
I flashed back to generic 2.1 and ran the unlock tool. When finished I check back with S1tool, my device show "r" and not "R" Yeaa...
Note that, I failed to unlock my bootloader when I was on 2.1 and 2.3.3 using latest Flashtool.
Thanks guys.
Guys,
I encountered the same situation when I using the least version of Flashtool (0.7.1.0), it always display - WARN - Cancelled
So I roll back to use Flashtool (v0.6.8.0) then plugins> bootloader unlock> run, it works
i'm using FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec, flash without any error. Try find it. .
Guys
Make sure your SEMC SIM LOCK status supported by doom kernel (forgot about status lock or unlock cause I tried only 1 times and get lucky)
from my expirence.. some many devices will be locked for the networks and it will give you EMERGENCY CALL and you OUT OF LUCK!

What the hell, I'm still having the same "disconnect" problem as in the original post.
Let me ask you all if I'm missing something here:
1) I have a new, Vodafone-locked X10 mini Pro.
2) I downloaded Flashtool latest
3) I used it to root the phone (ok, it worked)
4) I use the Plugin menu, then Unlock Bootloader, then you know the rest.
Am i missing something here?
Should I change kernel or install a recovery first?
If only every device was as easy as the SGS's...
Thanks guys

Thanks DJ.
I've managed to Unlock the bootloader still yesterday, i don't know why or how, but it worked.
The difference from my previous post is that I started the process with the phone already in flash mode, then reboot, then flash mode again, and then the Flashtool did everything (even saying Bootloader: UNROOTABLE)
My difficulty after that was to flash CWM. It's funny but that next step is not explained anywhere.
Are these the correct procedures?
Stock Phone > Flashtool:Root > Flashtool:Unlock Bootloader > CWM (???) > Flash Image > Flashtool:Kernel
It's strange why:
1) There is no CWM to flash from Flashtool
2) The kernel cannot be flashed from CWM
CWM recovery is built in to kernels like doomlords v6 multi recovery or FXP kernel. You will have to flash a CWM based kernel to get CWM recovery

I have tried to enter flash mode and press RESTORE as it says. I receive a "NOTHING TO RESTORE" message...
Do you know why Flashtool does not show anyting in Plugin menu ?

Possibly bricked Xperia Sola (help please)

I just flashed this through CWM in an unlocked-bootloader sola (as the thread suggested) and then after i pressed reboot from the CWM menu the phone stopped responding to anything!
screen, adb, fastboot, nothing working...
The only responses i can get from it are:
phone vibrates once when i press power+vol up
red led turns on when i plug in the usb cable
It won't even enter adb or fastboot, so i cant think of a way to fix this
Flash mode seems to appear working but when i try to flash anything through FlashTool it wont flash anything with an empty error message.

i had that problem with my xperia go once. when i turned it on it would show the Sony logo, then the Xperia logo and restart...
when i tried to flash a new ics rom(the stock one) via flash tool it had the same error, but i figured out you need to have PC companion opened when using flashtool.(at least that worked for me)

The problem is, my phone doesn't turn its screen on.
I can't tell whats going on, if its on or not (im being guided by led colors).
And i tried having pc companion on while using flashtool which didn't help
My friend sorry to say but you should read that post clearly before installing that rom this rom is for unlocked bootloader only.
May you have not checked bl status whether it is properly unlocked or not.
Or try to unlock bl again from flash tool and try to flash from again.

First, use SEUS update companion to clear problems.
Then turn on usb debugging, unknown sources and enable connection to pc in MSC.
Connect phone, let it recognize, then turn it off, hold back button while connecting to to phone and the LED should go green.
Make sure you have the drivers installed too.
Tnx man will give it try

Root your phone and unlock your bootloader is not the same thing.
If you have root your phone,that doesnt mean you have unlock your Bootloader.
Root is what in your file system.while Bootloader related with the kernel.
For users with Locked Bootloader usually Root Phone and install REcovery(CWM).
For users with unlock BL...didnt need to root phone and didnt install CWM.Kernel is pre-rooted and built-in CWM.
Thank you very much. The problem is that i try to unlock the bootloader and it did not work .i also try to root it but it did not work too. So now i don't know what to do cuz if i unplug the phone from charge then if goes of cuz of the O% problem
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
So try unlock your BL first...either with official or unofficial way.
Why have 0% problem?this problem exist from old kernel...the latest kernel didnt have this problem.
Tnx man ,I have manage to get root now. But still can't install kernel. Cuz in flashtool when i boot to fastboot mode via adb, then when i click on select kernel to flash . I get error massage that this action can only be done in fastboot mode. Mean while the phone is connected in fastboot mode.

Hey dude come on there is not a big issue.. If it says phone will reboot it won't you have to reboot manually..
Whent it says disconnected and again connected. Means the flashtool finished the process device will disconnect and reconect for another process..
When ever you try to flash anything from flashtool always do one process and disconect the phone and again make flashtool ready for another process then connect your phone.. You have to understand how to use flashtool first

Yes..As suggested in the Procedure,
1.Powered off the device.
2.Powered in ON,Simultaneously Presseing Menu Button & Plugged USB Cable in and fast boot button kept pressed.
3.While Mobile is booting can see Blue LED Indicator flash once and Mobile completes to boot to safe mode as shown on the Home Screen.
Is it the right procedure or I am missing anything??
Follow the steps in this http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions you seem to be missing the win usb file...

May be issue with drivers
After connecting to computer in fastboot mode check the following. It is the 15th point in sony developer tutorial.
Enter fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version, and verify that you get a response back (for example "0.3"). This means your device is connected properly.
If you don't get "0.3" or may be "0.5" your drivers are not properly installed. That is the cause of "waiting for device"
