Hey! I've been googling about 2 days now but there seems that nobody got the same problem as I'm facing.
SE st15i 4.0.2.A.0.62
I know that I need to unlock the bootloader to flash custom ROM. But I can neither unlock nor flash stock ROMs.
Need to know exactly which driver I should use to make unlocking/flashing possible?
The flashtool-drivers package dont work, even if i tried to install them all.
And as a youtube video showed me that I need to use "ADB drivers" but I can't use those drivers in flash mode, only fastboot mode.
I've tried
flashtool -> Gives me ERROR
DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su -> UNABLE to chmod, copy and install
Log when I try flashing.

The phone is allowed bootloade unlock
This means that your bootloader cant be unlocked, sir... You might have a simlock you could ask the operator to unlock the sim lock or you can try wotan server... But it doesn't works for everyone.. And even it does, I cant guarantee the fastboot to be enabled. But you can just root your device and flash stock based roms
Cheers,

try this http://xperiapalace.blogspot.in/2012/03/install-adb-drivers-for-all-phones.html
It still pops up as SEMC mass storage USB device.. And now I cant uninstall the drivers from the fastboot-drivers..
When connected in fastboot mode in devicemanager it shows as SEMC flash device, and in flashmode Sony fastboot interface.. Earlier yesterday I could connect the device in flashmode and it showed up as ADB device.. But thats gone now..
But, back to the tutorial, installing Android SDK and Java JDK doesnt seems to change anything. And I cant "double-click on “USB Driver package, revision..”." (quote) But Google USB drivers are installed.
And it seems that the Google USB drivers isnt for x64 since it complain about it..
I keep on trying to install from the flashtool, flashtool-drivers but through devicemanager I cant change the SEMC-driver to WinUSB or ggsemc. Even though driverinsstall-guide states that it installed WinUSB drivers. Still I cant use them with devicemanager ...
EDIT: It should not change anything if I change fastboot drivers but/and flashmode drivers cant be changed
Dont know if this is relevant, but in fastbootmode i see different Android devices (asus, google nexus, samsung and htc but not SE drivers) further down I see multiple Sony drivers, Sony sa0102 to Sony so0101.
In flashmode I cant change "SEMC flash device" driver.. Can this be the place where the problem reside?
Edit: If I untick "show compatible hardware" I find some different drivers from sony/sony ericsson, but non of which seems to be for the st15i

So you did the inevitable... you got a phone that's bricked.. fear not.. this happens to all of us.. consider it a "right of passage" when it comes to dealing with custom ROM's
Here at xda, help is never too far away (I was there once too)
I've tried to get you back to functioning latest Local 2.1 with recovery (xrecovery)
0) You'll lose all data with this method....
come to terms with that... not stuff on the sd card but data of your phone, sms'es, contacts, applications etc
1) Turn off your phone
Pull the battery and reinsert it if you have to...
2) Install Flashtool
go here and downlad flashtool
Install on your windows pc
Thank Androxyde and Bin4ry for this kickass tool
3) Download and flash stock 2.1
Go to this thread and download a 2.1 rom in your language of choice (Dont worry that it's not your local ROM)
4) Flash this rom using Flashtool
In the first link there is a how-to. follow it and flash the downloaded ROM from step 3
Once you have 2.1 on your phone,
5) Enable USB Debugging and Root
Use flashtool and root your phone using the simple button "Root" (I know!! what an awesome tool right!!?? )
Once rooted, disconnect the phone.
6) Get yourself a root file manager
Download a file manager capable of root access such as root explorer or solid explorer.
7) Access and edit the build.prop file
Open the file manager. U should get a superuser prompt to allow root access. Touch "Allow". Go to /system and mount the system as RW. there's a file there called build.prop. open it in a text editor. Find all instances of a number that looks like this 1238-9045 (this is my build number, yours will not be the same). Edit this number(all 3 instances) to look like your build number (Found on original box or behind the battery). Save the file and exit
8) Update via SEUS OR PC companion
Now connect your phone back. PC companion or SEUS will tell you there is a new update available. follow the instructions and you'll be running the latest 2.1 for your region and variant of the mini pro
9) [optional] Root and recovery
The new firmware installed by SEUS/PC companion is not rooted. If you need it, root again (same way as in step 5). once rooted, click "Ask root perms" on flashtool. Once root access is confirmed, install xrecovery from the menu.
Hope that helped!
Enjoy
Edit: if you get an error while opening flashtool saying "JVM could not be started because heap size bla bla bla..." Please try on another pc and maybe reinstall windows on urs

Repair it with SEUS or PC Companion.
Step A: leave your phone disconnected from your PC
Step B: Run SEUS/PC Companion, and select update
Step C: It doesn't recognise your phone because it's disconnected and give you a repair option
Step D: Select it, choose your model, it will download the firmware
Step Ea: You get a popup, Press the back-button on your phone while it's off and plug in the USB-Cable
Step Eb: If you can't turn off your phone, plug in the USB-cable and press home- and power-buttons at the same time, it will do a hard reboot and enter flashmode.
Step F: Wait till it's done...
everything past item 3 is pretty hard since we can't acces anything on phone(that's bricking a phone right) to enable usb debugging.
Good tutorial though for those who installed a custom rom and they want to revert to original plus root acces.
Any ideea how to force seus or flash to force flash?

cant flash using SEUS...its saying i have latest version but in reality the phone is already bricked by me and not having the original stock firmware... now it just keeps restart with sony erricson logo and turns off again and bootloop...cant root, cant flash... heard that there is some special modified usb that will make the bootloader enter download mode so that we can flash fresh firmware inside it?

You can always flash... post your model and if your bootloader is locked or unlocked ( since you're on SE kernel logo, i assume it's locked), and i can provide you with stock firmware (E10i or U20i) to flash with flashtool.

hi, i am u20i model...i accidentally locked the bootloader while having nna kernel i think, because flashing customised rom and kernel, my phone will enter bootloop, thats why i pressed Restore inside s1tool.exe, which got my bootloader locked....
and now that my bootloader is locked, and i cant root my phone without turning it on( the phone bricked cant turn on anymore) i cant unlock my bootloader to flash new kernels into it... please do provide stock firmware and rom for me... i can only flash stock kernel, but not the rom... after i flashed the stock u20i kernel, i dont know how to flash the original rom into my phone, since now my phone, didnt have the CWM or XRecover anymore, which can browse my SD card, and install the rom from .zip files....
flashing stock kernel no problem but did not know how to flash the stock rom

Download this, It's the complete SE 2.1 Firmware (Kernel and ROM), flashable with flashtool.
(It's about 213.5MB, although the site may display it's less in your download dialog, but it will keep downloading till it's all there)

Your tried to unlock your booloader and now dont turn on?
If your phones was manufacturated after 11w29, you got a hard brick.
I always use flashtool and I never had any problems before. But today I installed flashtool on my newly formatted pc (Windows 7 x64) and I always install flashtool on it and it works perfectly. But today i wanted to flash something with fastboot mode. so i installed all of the required drivers and my pc recognized the phone and showed me its connected in fastboot mode and even my flashtool recognized it, but here is the catch.. whenever i press on the "Bolt" i con and select fastboot mode , when i press "Ok" it doesn't do nothing and it doesn't take me to fastboot mode at all. It just stays that way and nothing happens, I've tried the x32Bit flashtool and the x64Bit flashtool and still having the same problem..so what can i do ? did i forget anything or is there anything wrong ?
Please tell me what should i do to get into fastboot mode on the flashtool ?

But today i wanted to flash something with fastboot mode. so i installed all of the required drivers and my pc recognized the phone and showed me its connected in fastboot mode and even my flashtool recognized it, but here is the catch.. whenever i press on the "Bolt" i con and select fastboot mode , when i press "Ok" it doesn't do nothing and it doesn't take me to fastboot mode at all. It just stays that way and nothing happens, I've tried the x32Bit flashtool and the x64Bit flashtool and still having the same problem..so what can i do ? did i forget anything or is there anything wrong ?
Please tell me what should i do to get into fastboot mode on the flashtool ?

Don't worry i know what I'm doing... I opened the x64 .exe and the x32 .exe too and had the same problem in both...i tried to run as administrator and nothing changed too...and I downloaded flashtool today morning from the official website so it's the newest version...that's really weird..

Hey, I have a problem
I just can't get my phone rooted. I did everything like in the instructions for .54 but it still won't install CWM or gives me Root access :/
Sometimes if I install root with restore after the reboot I get to the sim lock and it's broken. I mean like i can't type anything or i get a black screen with the SystemUI :/ But after flashing the MT27i_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.ftf then, everything works again except that it'S rooted ???
Could you help me please ? I have a Sola .54
Man, that's weird, I followed a video that makes you root the phone with the Bin4ry's restore method.
Did you hear about the pre-rooted ROM?

Can we have the link to rooting method you have followed?
First downgrade to the previous ics rom as .54 can't be rooted directly then use bin4ry's root with restore. Then your phone will be rooted.

hi guys.. i'm also trying to root my sola!!
i'm with .54 and i'm using flashtool to flash it to .10 ics!! but i'm stuck on flashtool, it keep saying:
"For flashtool, Unknown Sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings" and i guarantee that i've set those two settings
what i'm doing wrong??
just to ensure that i'm entering flash mode correctly.. we should use the vol- instead of back button like said in flashtool right?
thanks friends!!

USB debugging isn't needed for flashing.
Have you installed the drivers, for the fone + flash and fasboot?
What windows version you have?
Open flashtool, don't flash anything, just connect the phone in flash mode and post the log here.

To enter flash mode first switch off your phone, then hold the vol- button while connecting it to your pc via usb you should be able to see a green light. What is the usb mode you are using? MTP or MSC? To check that go to settings/xperia/USB connectivity.

No this isn't flashmode, shutdown your phone, and connect to the USB cable while holding volumedown button.
Did you install the drivers after installing flashtool (glashmode and fastboot at the bottom of the list of drivers installer)?

It's a kernel only file I assume and that's all you need for rooting, after rooting you flash kernel only of .54 and you're done.

Hi - I hope you are having a good day.
My stock non-rooted xperia sola is stuck in a boot loop.
I have been reading forums for days. Have tried flashtool and also cwm.
Phone is totally standard - not even USB debug is turned on - unless this is the default.
On power up I get xperia logo and then Sony logo and then loops again forever.
Flashtool connects via my xp laptop but then has an error trying to flash.
Cwm does not find my device.
Any help much appreciated. I'm quite techno but not with phones ( yet)
Rob

I have also tried the obvious power + vol up button for restart and shutdown.

What windows version do you have?
Post a log for connecting with flash mode without flashing anything, just open flashtool and connect in flash mode.
Make sure you are using USB 2.0 ports, USB 3 won't work.
Bootloader locked?
Tried to flash in fastboot mode with flashtool?
Other way you can flash it is with adb commands, check this.
You have to use the kernel that your zip file has, obviously. It's in an .iso format.

First of all, I know, but I send that link because it's the same way to flash another Android device, with adb commands, if flashtool doesn't work, it's worth to try something else like adb commands? Yeah.
And second, sorry, didn't knew.

Next time you should use Sony's updater if something like a bootloop happens, it's much easier than using flashtool and installing drivers.
Sony Update Service or you can use Sony PC Companion too. It has a repair function.

What should i do and in which order?
What exactly you are trying to say?
Unlocking your bootloader or Flashing a rom's FTF??
unlocking bootloader.
I suggest you to start everything from the beginning,
Get all required tools, like latest flashtool, Stock 2.3.3 ftf etc.,
Flash FTF, then root your phone, install recovery. Use flashtool to install your phones drivers and flash mode drivers. Let your PC detects your phone, then try to unlock BL using BL unlock plugin in flashtool.
Post the results.

tried to flash it but it seems like my phone never gets into flashmode. (nothing happens, the phone just restarts as normally) What can i do? I've tried to install recovery and rom manager manually, and then boot into recovery from rom manager but nothing happens.
Have you installed flash mode drivers bundled with flashtool in 'Drivers' folder of flashtool?
Are you holding back button while plugging USB to phone and saw a constant 'Green' LED on?
I am sure you are not doing it in correct way, As I suggest earlier, start every thing from beginning for a better result otherwise everything will be messed up!

made some progress but dont know what to do know.
updated with SEUS and got pass the loader.sin error.
but cant still get into flashmode or install recovery.
when i hit the recovery button it only says to be implemented and then nothing happens.
it was a constant green led light when i used SEUS but now when i try it only blinks for a second and then boots into mormal mode. also when im trying to boot into recovery with xrecovery or rom manager it doesnt work either.

A good news for you is that your phones bootloader is now unlocked.:thumbup:
What exactly are you trying to flash ATM?
Try these steps and post the results:
*First select the kernel you want to flash (go for FeraLab GB v20 kernel) in flashtool. You need to download Feralab GB v38 ROM too. Dont forget to check final verification checkbox after selecting kernel.
*let flashtool process all pre-requisite, don't connect your phone untill flashtool asks you to. It will show an animation on how to get into flash mode.
*Connect your phone in flash mode by holding back button while pluggung USB in.
*Let flashtool to do its magic. It will take a couple of secs, then disconnect.
*Turn on and try entering CWM by continously hitting back button.
If u see CWM menu, congrates and flash ROM zip, you had downloaded!

Ps: Thanks for all the help so far!
Look bro, I am damn sure your BL in now unlock, its showing 'Bootloader status: ROOTED'
Don't confuse everything with that recovery, you need to go ahead, step by steps :/
Have you tried flashing any custom kernel yet? if not! flash any of the custom kernel for Unlocked BL available on forum. I personally suggest FeraKernel v20.

Bro, I really can't help you as now I don't have any SE or Sony device from a long time. But its seems you are having drivers problem. For that I suggest you to roll back to Windows 7, as of now Windows 8 have lots of compatibility issues with different USB devices.
CHERRY NOTE: Start everything from zero, if you are following any guide on here. My personal experience, I never failed flashing any kernel on my last two Sony devices.
GOOD LUCK FLASHING :thumbup:
