U can reboot into fastboot mode using flashtool. After installing flashtool you have to find out an option calling "fastboot via adb".just click this option.and the phone automatically reboot into fastboot mode.but u have to install all usb driver for ur device.

My silly mistake when i wanna flash my first kernel was pressing my volume down button on my lww instead of volume up..
So if youre using lww, then volume up is for fastboot mode and volume down is for flashmode.

Hello.
I have recently bought a brand new Sony Xperia S. i got it all working when i unlocked its bootloader and rooted it.
now it gots into some kind of bootloop. it wont boot up. that means i cant get into its internal Sdcard. so i cant move any images to the phone so i can install it by recovery mode.. the only mode i can get into is the fastboot mode.
all i need to know is, can i somehow move a .zip file to my phone, when the only mode i can be in is Fastboot?
Flash doom recovery in fastboot then access the recovery and mount the usb to your pc and copy what you want.

Use it to reflash your firmware...
First power down with the hard power down button combo, and reflash using flashtool.
im a bit new to this, but i can flash kernels to my phone. but i cant get into recovery mode to install anything. im stuck in the boot loop. dont know what to do -.-'

Read the flashtool guide. It allows you to reflash any soft bricked device.

thanks foryour reply. i've got into the recovery mode. but i cant install any *.zip from my sdcard, because i cant mount the sd. so i cant move anything onto it so i can install it from the recovery mode.
any suggestion?

Download flashtool from the sticky thread and any FTF you like. Unplug your phone and switch it off completely. Then hold the volume up button and plug it back. Install flashmode-drivers.exe shipped with flashtool. Run flashtool, click the flash button, choose your ftf and wait. When it's done, reboot to your new firmware.

PROBLEM SOLVED!
Thanks to everyone who has helped me!
Hello everyone.
I am just trying to flash my Xperia Mini Pro to CM7.
But when I am trying to send the "boot.img" it seems to get stuck.
this is my sonsole output:
Code:
E:\Programme\AndroidSDK\platform-tools>.\fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (5272 KB)...
this already stayed for about 30min.
is it normal that it takes so long?
if not, what do I have to do to fix it?
Thanks,
McFarlane
It's just take around 2sec to flash.
Try flashing boot.img using flashtool

I followed the instructions of the wiki. Can I verify somehow that it is unlocked?
(I've just installed this flashtool. But how to flash with it? )
My guess is u havent unlock the bootloader yet.
Heres a good tool to do it the official way, which might void your warranty if u choose to do so.

I've used the program and it said, that the BL was already unlocked.
Open dialpad and type
*#*#7378423#*#*
Service info>configuration>rooting status.
What does it say there?

It says: "Bootloader unlocked: Yes"
Then u already have unlock bootloader. Try to reflash the kernel again.
Btw did u enter fastboot mode when u try to flash earlier?
Led should be blue in fastboot mode.

Yes, the LED was Blue When i connected it to my pc.
what do you mean by "reflash the kernel"?
i tried flashing the boot.img at least ten times and it got stuck every time.
Try with the bootloader unlock tool. It can flash kernel too.
just try flash it with an0nym0us_ said before
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560613

I did it as you described but after clicking on "Flash" the tool didn't show any reaction.
it just froze and stayed like this until now
USB Debugging is on.

reflash your stock rom with Xperia Flashtool and try again. You can also try a different usb cable or computer also is the fastboot driver installed ? take a look under device manager.

I installed the fastboot driver during the flashtool installation.
The Device Manager shows it as Android ADB Device.
Also, to flash the Xperia in Flashtools, it excpects from me to hold down the back button while plugging in the cable.
Which is not possible because it is a touch button. So noothing happens -.-
Its volume down button for flash mode, not back button :/

Volume down button works for flash mode. But it fails with errors:
08/041/2012 23:41:42 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
I never excpected this update to be so difficult...
I've updated my old G1 to CM once and it took me 1h with reformatting the SD card using a HEX editor -.-
What is this miniCM7?
According to the description it is available for X8, X10 and X10 mini pro. So it won't work on my device either?

flashtool support all 2011 device
check release note for detail
http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
I tried to follow the how to of the Cyanogenmod Wiki for my phone.
But flashing using their instructions doesn't work and anything the flashtool can do is not working either.
Its either failing or gets stuck without any response.
I am now downloading and trying the CM7 you have linked in your post.
Maybe this one will work...
Thats what I did now:
I downloaded the file you linked and extracted the boot.img
Then I connected my phone in Fastboot mode and tried to flash the kernel using the Flashtool - Fastboot Toolbox via the button "Select kernel to Flash".
Log output shows now: "09/016/2012 00:16:51 - INFO - Flashing selected kernel"
After that, nothing happens.
What do I do now?

Please ask a q in Q&A thread and use the search button.
By the way:
- you must have unlocked bootloader to get in fastboot mod and flash custom kernel.

Use flashtool. Download kernel, be sure download completely. Run flashtool, choose fastboot mode. Connect your phone in fastboot mode (turn off, when USB plug hold volume up, led blink blue) Select kernel to flash.

You should reflash using a new kernel! Or stock kernel!

Your screen doesn't work at all when you reboot? After flashing Advanced Stock ICS Kernel I had to access the recovery (when booting regularly the led will light blue, the notification bar will glow and the phone will buzz once, all at the same time, at that instant press volume up), and flash the kernel again but in zip format.
If the screen doesn't work I'd try flashing the kernel again and if the problem remains just re-flash a stock firmware with Flashtool and then flash the kernel again. Going in recovery to reflash ics15.zip after using fastboot will be necessary though.
Odd that you had to change the kernel name, flashing ics15.elf with fastboot worked for me.
thank god
Thank God you replied I'm almost scared to death.
I just plug in n now finally there's blue light n i can go into fastboot. T.T
I have to rename it cuz it doesn't work... so what do you type? do you download the fastboot?
Now what should i do? should try again? or redownload n reflash the advanced stock kernel or other kernel?
but the doomlord guide didn't say anything about booting into the recovery and reflash it or did i miss a step? cuz doomlord guide says type "fastboot reboot" thus is rebooting?
editk so i did reflash the advanced stock but after i type fastboot reboot it says rebooting... but it did nothing! not even a buzz

I think just make sure ur kernel is not corrupted then reflash! Do u know how to reflash! When it done u can unplug and turn it on normally!

ok i'm keeping calm and everything but can i flash using fastboot into stock? like all stock firmware n rom n kernel? is there a guide?
Alright Thanks God it works now! I was in despair... but i guess you cannot type the fastboot reboot.
So what i did is reflash after it says okay! unplug ...and just turn it on normally. sorry for panicking
is there any other way to get into flash mode or recovery..
because my vol - button broked
please is there any way tell me:crying:

I'm sorry but as far as I know it's not. No reboot option or anything and other keys are not working. I'm sorry
But you could flash a custom kernel, boot in cwm, flash the stock rom in cwm and boot it. You're stock then
Well flashmode won't be possible, but you could always reboot to recovery via adb.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Cheers,
AJ
Ya figured it out i Can Use walkman key to go to recovery.
