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....
Edit* .

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.
how to open fastboot application? it keeps blinking.
Hi
when i power down my xperia s and keep the Volume Up button pressed and connect the USB cable to PC it's goes on FASTBOOT mode for just a 5 sec and then it Restart !!
it wont stay in fastboot mode and i cant install driver because of this problem !
any help and sorry for my bad English .
This is already being discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527159
You're not the only one.
By the way, I found a fix:
I ran the fastboot, etc, on a XP PC (or just a VM in my case). It worked like a charm. I installed the drivers, rebooted the VM and now I'm on a rooted and unlocked Xperia S.
it's work ...... thanks

Hi,
I just got my Sony Xperia S (on T-Mobile in the UK) and am having problems getting into fastboot mode. Unlike any of the reported issues I can find, I am not getting five seconds of fastboot before the system resets. In fact, I am not getting any fastboot at all. When I press volume up and plug the phone in via the USB cable, it does... nothing interesting. It simply goes straight to the Sony splash and then the charging screen.
I am on Windows 7, and can probably get access to a Vista machine for diagnostics, if it would help. XP may be a bit more tricky.
Anyone got any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help.

Try a different USB port maybe?
Did you turn on USB debugging on your S?

I've tried a few, but the USB port is definitely working - the phone is charging from it, just not entering fastboot mode.

Did you check if can be unlocked in the service menu. If your phone is branded they normally can't be unlocked and they will not enter fastboot at all.
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
That may be it. I can't get to the service menu thanks to an MMI error but if that's how it exhibits then it's plausible.
Is there any way around this? This phone is stuffed with bloat and I really want to get rid of it.

Hello I have an Xperia S, with bootloader locked and recently installed a ROOM in order to get the 6.A.1.2.55 with root.
Installed from a ZIP from recovery mode following this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2009672
Now when I try to do step 7 (flash kernel and Baseband) Using Flashtool, Im unable to enter to the mode; when the windows prompts me, I turn off the phone, press and hold Vol up connect the USB but nothing happens, only the Sony Logo and then the icon of charging battery, I also tried to turn off the phone while holding Power button + Vol up (at the same time) and get the 3 vibrations, but the same result when I connect, the logo and the charging animations/icon..( no LED of any color or anything)
Im using the latest Flashtool version (0.9.9.0) with the drivers intalled (even though Windows security constantly pestered me about not being able to identify the source and signture) on Windows 7 64 bits..
Thank you..
U can't use fastboot with locked bootloader
U need to unlock your bootloader first then u can flash kernels
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Yes, that I did know but the author of the ROOM doesn't have it unlocked either. Besides even if that, I'm still Unable to enter the mode, or is it because I uncheck "exclude kernel" that it doesn't enter the mode?

I am not sure how i managed to do this,does when i was trying to unlock my boot loader with the test point method using s1tool or when i press the Repair TA button on Octopus SE Suite.Since then i can not enter in flash mode on my wt19i.It just shows the Sony logo and starts charging.Before this i was able to flash it normally.I`ve tried every possible flashing tool but all of them are asking me to enter the flash mode manually. (Unplug cable, power off, press and hold Volume down key and insert the usb cable).Where could be the problem?I have read many treads but i couldn`t managed to find a solution.Please help.Thanks.
Have you installed the drivers provided in flashtool?
And install pc companion to get drivers, too!

Yes they are installed.Here is an image where i can see that the ADB drivers are installed.(Highlighted area).
I`ve tried this also.I know that i must hold only the volume down key wile inserting the cable.I`ve done this few times few weeks ago.But something is messed up and i think its when i was trying the testpoint method using the s1tool.Is there any option in s1tool for reseting the phone to its original state?
Come on guys, no one had this problem before?Is it software or hardware related?
Update...
Is it possible that somehow buy upgrading to 4.0.4, key combination for entering in flash mode is changed?

And you turn your phone off and after that you hold volume down and connect while holding volume down to pc and there's no green light? Is it orange or what happens?
EDIT:: Just found this thread, and there's same problem solved. But you will need the original WT19i_35850804005723_11-02-2012_20-51-48.TA file and I don't know where to download it. Maybe contact ramezzidane (in the thread) and ask him where he found the .ta file or if he could upload it for you, because it seams that Octopus SE Suite has overwritten some things like fastboot mode etc. Hope it'll help you

When i get the prompt from flash tool i:
Unplug the phone
Turn off
hold down the volume - key
plug the usb cable to the phone
No color light at this point
On the phone appears the Sony logo
i hear a sound like new device plugged on the pc (No driver installation window on the taskbar)
The light goes orange and battery icon appears on the screen showing that is charging
That`s all.
Is there any method other than with Octopus Suite for rewriting TA?

So your bootloader is unlocked or locked at the moment? You say you were trying, but is it or not?

No.My bootloader is locked.
dude it may be driver problem
do one thing
go to device manager in windows 7
in bottom most u see "universal serial bus controllers"
expand the menu and uninstall all usb drivers(option in right click)
restart ur pc and now try to connect again
Have you tested your volume down key on Android? Maybe it doesnt work since you tried to unlock your phone...
In addition, i would try in another computer, installing drivers from the beginning.

You could try to flash the content of the ftf manually, but that's dangerous, cause if it doesn't work your device is bricked and you can't enter flashmode anymore to flash stock firmware.
And you can't repair via pc companion, cause you can't enter flashmode to flash the firmware again and you can't repair using sony update service, cause it's the same?
If you're sure it isn't a driver problem (install flashtool drivers and pc companion and restart pc) it should be only solved with flashing the ta, but that can only be done in flashmode and you can't enter it, right?
So is your device rooted, then unroot (if possible) and bring it to service center. They should repair it, but I can't promise. Tell them (cause flashing with flashtool voids warranty), that you had a problem and you wanted to repair using pc companion and you couldn't because you can't enter flashmode. That's the only method I think, except from writing the ta again. But don't know if they would repair it for free or if they can solve the problem...
Maybe we can find another solution for your problem
My phone was network locked few hours ago. I was trying the test point method again and now its locked totally.It is not accepting any sim cards.I read a post here on the forum where the guy was explaining this procedure so at the end he managed to fix the flashmode.But as he stated the phone will remain network locked.For that he mentioned the setool method for network unlocking.For me went bad.Now my phone is network locked and the key combination still doesn`t work.So now can you give me the cheapest way to unlock my phone first and then go back to my first problem.Is there any chance to get it unlocked by the IMEI number?All of the keys on the phone are working very well but i still can`t enter in flash mode.I tried flashing on another computer with fresh windows installation but it`s same.It`s not driver related i am sure.Ether is wrong key combination or is that TA thing.Thanks to all of you guys for your efforts, but i must find a way to fix these problems.
Update...
Ok Guys.I`ve take the phone to a local repair service and they`ve managed to fully unlock it.It cost me 10 eur for that.Now on the bootloader status in the service menu says "Yes" instead earlier when it was "No".But i still have the Flashmode problem.I hold the Vol - key while plugin in the cable and the phone just starts charging with a orange light indicator.Where could be the problem i really don`t understand?Any idea?
I think the problem is the ta. Octopus may have overwritten some functions like flashmode. But I don't know exactly if it works to rewrite ta...
And what should i do next now?The newest i've noticed is that my GPS is not working anymore.I think that it's the ICS version but i am not able to reflash it.Comon is there no one that had this problem?
Sent from my WT19i using xda app-developers app
The guy from the mobile repair store told me that when i was doing the test point method i`ve broken something in the JBS or JVS.I didn`t understand him very well.And he told me that he somehow managed to unlock my phone but about the flashing problem he said that i will never may flash the phone again.Is this ok or?
Hello everyone ,
I think I have just bricked my nexus 9 , it started when I installed the dirty unicorn rom, but without thinking I did not perform a factory reset before in recovery and now my nexus 9 will not boot at all. When I hold the power button the google logo appears for a couple of seconds and turns off quickly. I also tried fasboot , and I eventually got it to appear but it turned off after 1-2 seconds. I then tried to use nexus root toolkit to flash the factory image, but since I cant acces fastboot it wont find my device. Am I out of options, or is there something else I can do , or should I send it in for repair. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Update:
anyone please help , edit:: I tried everything I could to turn on the nexus 9 and when I plugged in the nexus 9 to the wall and held power + up button , it turns on and says Fastboot AC, however whenever I select fastboot it shows it for a second and turns off. I tried plugging it into the wall and Fastboot AC but when I unplug it to my computer it just turns off and from there I cant do anything and it does not turn on at all.
Is there perhaps someway I can flash the bootloader without the screen on or anything like the nexus root utility that fixes bricked bootloaders?
Did you flash the custom rom via twrp? Do you still have the twrp recovery?
If yes try to boot into twrp recovery and connect to your pc.
Yes, I did flash the custom rom in twrp , however I cannot boot into twrp recovery or even into fastboot or the bootloader. My nexus 9 will not even turn on unless is connected to the wall outlet and then when I press the power + volume button it shows Fastboot ac however when I select the bootloader or anything else it just turns off. When I connected it to my pc, my nexus 9 does not turn on at all and is not even recongnized
Can you find a pc with a USB charging port or a hub with a charging port? A USB charging port will be able to deliver 2A along with the USB connection. You may also find a USB3 port may also deliver sufficient power - the official spec says 900mA but I think that is the minimum requirement.
I tried using 3 different pc's , one with a usb charging port , and the nexus 9 was still not able to turn on, even when holding power + volume up or any other configuration. I tried different usb cables and still no luck. Is there someway that I can access it without fastboot or adb? I know on the nexus 7 forum, there is one click factory restore dead or alive , but I dont think there is anything like that for the nexus 9.

All you need is fastboot. From there you should be able to flash boot.img and system.img
commands are....
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Then I would run fastboot format userdata
Of course you need to get these image files from the factory image site here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Ahhh, Ok. Thats what I was getting at.
You may have to RMA the device. Tell them nothing of root and ROM and just give the function failures you discussed here.

I dont think I can RMA the device becuase I purchased the nexus 9 from an ebay seller and I contacted him and he said returns are only valid for two weeks and I have already had the device for other two months now. Should I just sell it or can I somehow return the device to google even though I did not buy it through the play store?
Just for reference , here is a picture of the nexus 9 in fastboot ac connected to the wall charger
http://imgur.com/coUY7qS
If I select hboot it turns off ,and if I try to plug it into a PC it just quickly shuts down and will not turn back on
I would still try to RMA back to HTC.
The most they can say is No.
Ok thanks for you help , I will try to contact HTC for a RMA
Edit: I just called HTC and described my situation and they said they would not be able to return it or RMA the device because it was bought from an ebay seller and they are not responsible. Is there anything else I can do?

try rebooting by pressing volume Up and power together until the phone vibrates.plug the smartphone into a USB connected PC and press the volume up if the LED lights blue try entering the "fastboot devices" command if it is detected unplug and connect again while press the volume down if the LED lights green do flashing
I pray that your device can be used again

No response while i press power button or any other key combination (also can't enter fastboot/ flash mode). But while I connect to PC with xperia flashtool, the Xperia Logo appear and then a repair sign and then show charging battery. Flashtool show phone is connected with USB debugging disabled.
Please answer me if my phone is recoverable or not and what should i do.
Thanks

Do you have unlocked BL? Have you tried to fix it using pc companion or not?
EDIT There is something called Newflasher. I have used it few times but I don't know if it works with locked bootloader and disabled developer mode because I have a TA backup and unlocked BL. You have to ask on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...gress-newflasher-xperia-command-line-t3619426 and try to do it by yourself. It may get work.

Appreciate your suggestion. I tried PC companion but it can't detect my phone. I've never tried to unlocked BL.
I'll tried with Newflasher as you said.
EDIT: The newflasher can't help. I think the main problem for my phone is that all buttons are not functioning. May be I accidentally did something in developer mode of my phone before it got crashed. (when i connect to charger, screen shows Xperia logo , then a triangular repair sign and finally a green charging battery).

It is hard to diagnose through the internet but we can try to eliminate next causes. So, you can't flash due to turned off USB Debugging or because you cannot enter flash mode? It is important because if you have hardware issue with buttons fixing it may be a solution. I have disassembled my XZ1 and I know that buttons replacement is quite easy for people with some experience and they cost about 5-10$ or 4.5-9.5 euro depending on region. Have you tried safe mode? The most important is that your phone is not dead at all, so there still is a hope.
