Did you install fastboot and fash mode driver from flashtool(at the bottom of the list)
Before you try to unlock or flash, just leave flashtoll open and connect in fastboot mode, if all is ok it will show in dlashtool window.
i think that is the worong!!! " install fastboot and fash mode driver from flashtool"
now all is fine!!! i'm unlocked
thank you very much

I tried pdanet to re-install my drivers but its about adb drivers not flashmode
I also tried SUS and now I'm almost sure that this problem comes from Drivers cuz SUS doesn't recognize my device when the green led is on and in device manager my phone is named SEMC flash device and here I also changed the driver manually to STE8500.inf from flashtool driver
and there is no good result till now :|
Drivers
Its all about the drivers. Install SUS, Gordons Gate Flash Drivers, The Flash drivers from flash tool and finally turn off the phone holding power button and volume up for 30 seconds and try flashing it again

Hi again
I do all things which might help updating drivers and so on
but no answer from phone
I thought that this might be because of boot problem
is there any way not use jtag or other ways of boot repair to do this job?
Hi all. I need help.. I've installed Doomkernl with ICS sotck firmware on the phone because I didn't read it was incompatible. Now it stuck at the boot screen and I can't do nothing. There is something I can do to repair it??
Flash only the kernel using flashtool, ics firmware
Tapatalked !
So I have to download the stock firmware and flash it? But I can do this when my phone is on and can't go in recovery mode? And also I cant install USB drivers..
Download and install flashtool. Then install drivers from the flashtool directory. Read the tutorial on how to use it
Tapatalked !
I did, I installed the driver with flashbot for xperia s but when i connect the device it tell me that can't install MTP USB driver. And I also need to turn off the phone but the power button doesn't work..
Hold the power and volume up button for 10 secs to power off. As for the drivers uninstall and reinstall flashtool and see if it works
Tapatalked !
Thanks for your help. I have installed an ics kernel in fastboot mode but when I rebooted I had black screen. So I have turned off the phone and connected in flashboot mode but it didn't install the driver. I reinstalled driver in the folder and tried to connect again but now the pc desn't recognize the device..
I tried again and this time it worked! The phone is restored. Thanks a lot for your help
As you've already got the answer to your query, I'm closing this thread.

Once you connect your phone via usb and while you are pressing volume up button, on windows go start-> right click on computer->devices manager. Now you should see your device. Right click and install drivers manually from the folder of the drivers you downloaded.
Notice that you have to be fast since and that maybe you will have to repeat this procedure several times since firsts times phone remains on fastboot for really few seconds.
You can also try another way. Download and install latest flashtool. After that go to Computer-> C:/-> Flashtool-> Drivers-> run Flashtool-drivers. Install the drivers for your device.

Hi all,
I can't flash the stock rom on my xperia p with flashtool. I followed all step of many guide of various web sites (much the same). I trying to flash LT22i_6.2.A.1.100_Generic World.ftf, but when i connected my device in flash mode, i waited a few second and flashtool output this:
26/059/2014 15:59:57 - INFO - (MainSWT.java:127) - Device disconnected
26/000/2014 16:00:08 - INFO - (MainSWT.java:139) - Device connected with USB debugging off
26/000/2014 16:00:08 - INFO - (MainSWT.java:140) - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
Why? My device was in debug on when i plugged it, and Flashtool recognized it!
What is MTP mode??
Some details:
- My device is Xperia P LT22i;
- I have installed xperia p drivers;
- It has custom rom and kernel of Kit Kat's android version;
- It has unlocked BL;
- I'm using windows 7.
Sorry for my english. I hope this post is clear.
Thank's in advance =D
Turn device off
To flash it you must turn off your device & connect in Flashmode
"Device connected with USB debugging off" YOUR DEVICE ON NOT OFF
ya he is right
yes to flash firmware u have to connect the Device in flashmode (connect the device while holding vol - button )
MTP mode is media transfer mode u can access internal and SD card section through it..
Yes, i got it
Yes, i have pressed volume down on device turned off and plugged it. It sparkle green led, as guide say. Flashtool indeed output this:
27/032/2014 13:32:22 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode
It was on debug on, going to settings - developer options and ticking USB Debugging (hoping i have it right!)

Without performing flash, open flashtool and connect in flash mode, see that it stays in flash mode for about 45 seconds, if not it may be driver issue.
Which window version you are using and have you installed flash mode driver that come with flashtool?

I'm using windows 7. I have installed xperia p drivers.
Talking of drivers, the first time i used drivers to unlock bootloader, i didn't use flashtool. Instead (following instructions in an android forum) i download a fastboot-driver folder containing Flashtool_drivers.exe and installed drivers from there and unlocked BL from command line (cmd). Later i download and installed flashtool (Version 0.9.10.2beta6). The procedure for installing drivers are the same. It might be this the problem?
I'm not very pratical with this element and terms. So be patient with me xD

instruction
1 ) Run label - Flashtool.exe ( After installing the label should appear on your desktop , but if it does not, look for a shortcut to the root directory of the installed program " C :/ ... / Flashtool")
2 ) After starting the program you will see the Flashtool window inside which will block with the lightning bolt (click )
3 ) In the resulting window, select Flashmode
4) In the resulting window , in the left center of the screen you will see the firmware which was previously thrown in " C :/ ... / Flashtool / firmwares", click on the firmware
5) On the right will "tick" do not click if you do not know what you are doing . "Wipe Data" means erase all that was in the phone. Remove or leave - you decide for yourself. However, we strongly recommend that when a different version of firmware OS erase everything .
6) We click "OK "
7 ) You will see a graphical user guide your actions , namely : Turn off your phone , hold Volume Down + Connect the USB cable to the computer and then to your phone. You did everything right if you turned green diode . In no case " run " line of the firmware not vyderayte USB cable! Do not get scared if you see a mistake sometimes in red font !
9. ) Wait reported successful firmware "Flashing finished"

Just open flashtool, do not click any icon, and connect in flash mode, see in the log if it get into flash mode and how long it says in flash mode untill it dissconnects.

You did not install flash and/or fastboot mode drivers too (though it seem you had if you unlocked bootloader)?
If you are on 64 bit windows you may try Flashtool.exe instead Flashtool64.exe.
Revealed(?)
@SonyFan23: Thanks for the guide. =)
I followed all steps carefully knowing terms and what it make me do. It's not the red font, but the red diode after the green one to worry me! -_-
@ChikeD: I try both Flashtool.exe and Flashtool64.exe. it seems they both work. In any case, i'm on 64 bit.
Yes, i unlock BL, so i had to install this drivers. But, after i connect my phone in flash mode as you told me, few seconds later flashtool show that the device is disconnected!
It seems that the problem is drivers.
What should i do? Unistall and install them again?

Hi there,
I have a rooted xperia u with unlocked bootloader. I've tried to install the cm9 following a guide where the requirement of the installation was having an original Sony firmware installed on the device. I didn't saw that requirement, and I installed it with a custom rom on my phone. So after flashing the kernel I turned on my xperia...
Bricked.
It made only the vibration but no Sony logo appeared. So, I connected it in flashmode on my computer (with windowsXP) with green led working, but flashtool gived me the message that I must install the phone drivers (even if I had already installed them on my pc). I tryed to reinstall them but nothing canghed.
I also tried to connect the phone on a windows 7 pc always with flastool (and drivers installed) but in that case neither fastboot mode or flashmode, nor any vibration was working (pc doesn't detect it).
I tried to connect the phone with removed battery or also a reset with power and volume up buttons but nothing...
It's still like this, with fastboot mode or flashmode not working with any pc... :crying:
Is there anything that I can do?
Thanks in advance.
Head to Sony service centre
Hit thnx

Sorry Cwikla, I didn't flashed the kernel, but the rom. I wrote it wrong.
Try getting into fastboot. Even without drivers, you might be able to do so. Bring up the fastboot menu in flashtool, then plug in your phone in fastboot. Quickly hit reboot into fastboot (via fastboot). Then flash another kernel and restore a nandroid backup(if you have one)
