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

Flash any Stock B.1.54 or C.1.0 (use flashtool).
Let it boot properly.
Download eXperience.zip and transfer to internal memory.
Now flash Munjenis's CWM kernel
How to flash?
Download fastboot package and extract it.
Download Memory Tweak.zip and extract it.
Copy ftr file from memory tweak and Place ftr to fastboot folder.
While device is power OFF:
Volume Up + USB cable connected to PC -> FASTBOOT MODE (BLUE LED will light up)
Open Command Prompt (Shift+Right mouse button) in Fastboot Folder
Write this commend and hit enter fastboot flash boot ftr
Done
thanks for helps everybody, but my phone does'nt stay in flash mode, after 20-30 seconds of green light, disconnecting
so i can't use flashtool
i have solved all problems, thanks for everything

I am Having SE Xperia NEOV with Andriod 4.0.4 & Build Number 4.1.B.0.587 attached is SS. I am looking to Install Custom ROM so as in process of that had rooted the Mobile using E-Root Tool.
Now On Searching some FAQs looking to Unlock the Boot loader using official SE Process.I got Unlocking Key from Sony.
While doing its getting stuck at "Waiting for Device"...Need you guidance regarding this am I missing something.
1.I had tried Factory reset of Mobile even then its same scene.
2.The SDK package has been downloaded and also updated it to latest versions.
Guidance regarding this shall be very useful to me.

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"
