Try flashing another kernel via fastboot... or just flash stock kernel in the form of ftf, sir

I don't think it will work, because if it was kernel related, changing the kernel would fix it, right?

Wiping cache and dalvik cache didn't work and flashing stock kernel also didn't work, does this mean I have to go for the hard choice???
there always should be an alternative!!

I will flash a custom rom but sadly I'll lose all my data
You need to download stock rom ics or jb in .ftf file extension and flash it trough flashtool. It is 2 min of work. One min for prep and sec min for flash process. Your problem is rom not kernel...
You will this settings on see ya !!!
Yes installing this driver is a bugger had same issues as yourself on my xperia u
took some Patience i had to go right back to stock:crying:

hi, recently i have installed some MIUI rom on my neo v, and was working perfect. but i wanted to go back to the stock roms, but i had a problem, and it was that it would take about 2 hours for every percent (using flashtool) !!! so i tried changing kernels, and the problem presisted, until i dont know how, i removed the kernel, and i couldn't install one again cuz it said that for doing so, i need to root my phone.
so basically, i have a phone without kernel and rom! can anyone help me fix it?
You don't need to root your phone to flash kernels. Flash kernels using fastboot. Do you have a nandroid backup?
Flash a stock ftf, sounds like you might have relocked your bootloader

well im only trying to flash a stock ftf, but im having the problem i said before!
and i have tried to do it in locked and unlocked bootloader, but there was no difference!
how many pc programs are there that can flash a rom?
is there any that can flash MIUI or CM roms (i mean zip ones)?
Flashtool for flash firmware like FTF file or flash kernel.
Fastboot for flash kernel only.
CWM for flash ROM through SD Card.
If u want revert back to stock.u will need FTF file and the right one flashtool...tick no verification final.
Sorry for my English

Message about root, when flashing kernel, refer to locked/unlocked BL.

Let's start with flashing a Stock ftf. U have one already. Use flashtool and do all as instructed. Untick Final Verification. Even if it is 2 hours per percent, just let it run. Perhaps your PC is slow.
And don't worry about battery running out. Did you know that when using recovery, if you remove the battery while the phone is still plugged into the computer, it won't turn off? It should be the same when using flashtool. Don't worry about battery
Once done, boot up your phone to check everything is done. If this worked, PM me, and I'll guide you through a MIUI flash.
You're welcome
1 more thing. Redownload the ftf. Maybe it is buggy.
Hey bro.
Is it fixed? Please let us know
sorry for being late to response!
good news, i fixed it! I dont know why i didn't try it sooner, but i tried flashing it with another pc, and it worked!
now i want some good roms for it,preferably based on JB. what are the bests out there?
BTW, Jass, your theory about "infinite battery while connected to pc" didn't turned out to be true, and it made me buy a direct charger! so please do not do this at home, school or...
when flashing ftf roms check in log to see if it gets stuck in this message [Ending Flash Session] (cuz it wont continue flash anymore)
if yes
plug out the usb
restarst your computer
try different usb ports

Hello to everynoe. Neo v user, rooted but bricked phone... Had stock ics kernel rooted with f/w .587. Flashed UHD but changed mind and wanted to downgrade to gb, .62... The mistake? I flashed immediately the f/w, the ftf file... Of course it stuck at the file "system.[i can't remember]" for too long. After that flashed kernel .562 and tried to flash the same f/w but nothing. Now i downloaded .587 ftf, full... What should i do??? My phone stucks at sony logo...
I know i messed it up but,

If you mean connect it to flashtools and be recognized, yes. As try to flash ftf through flashmode.
Well why don't you just flash a stock ftf?

Well, i tried it too but it tells me "You have the latest version"... I ll try again. Does this program has more functions??? Isn't it just for repairing?
The tool is mainly for updating, but sometimes solves issues like yours.
And which version does it say you have?
Oh and can you use adb?

The strange is that it doesn't say any version, just phone model, and "You have the latest version"... I try to flash now gb ftf .62 and i will wait how long it takes... Even 45'! Patience. Nothing else i can do!
Yeah well try that for as long as it takes, I can't think of anything that would solve your issue right now
I upload 2 pic to see how s the situation and give some help... When i open it these 2 appear. Forst the logo. Then the other and closes by its own...
What can i do?????
Try flashing just the stock Kernel of your phone version..
Had the same problem three weeks ago, can't flash system.sin . As far as I know, there's no solution for you. Fortunately, I took the phone to a repair centre and my phone was fixed under warranty (bricked while updating with SUS).

Yes Todor, this is what i ve done many times in the past and what i tried yesterday and i m going to do it now too. It's just that for some reason yesterday it didn't flash system.sin FOR NOTHING after 25'! I ve unistalled flashtools now, cleaned up reg, and i ll set it up again as i ll update my java.
1 quest: is there ANY possibility that flashtools won't work with a well set up system and software???
Ok. Finally flashed succesfully! Just needed other computer because the one i used was TOOOOOO slow... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
This flashtool issue is becoming more and more common... The best thing to do when flashtool fails is to try in another y computer...

You can use that one if you are on unblocked bootloader.

If you was on jb and you flash a kernel for ics it won't boot.

You want to flash just the kernel or the Rom mate? You can't flash ics kernel on jb rom. You have to flash or ics or jb.
If you want to downgrade to ics, just flash the ftf file.

A good kernel, like any other software, is a kernel that works, if it doesn't it's not so good.
Have you followed the instructions how to install it, wiping dalvik cache or such?
EDIT: BTW do you have the ftf file for the formware you are using? The kernel is there you can flash it with flashtool no wipes and excluding all other packages.

As you can see by my signature I have Xperia P so I know nothing about Sola custom kernel.
I have tried many custom kernels for my phone and came to the conclusion it's not worth messing with, I am very happy with stock kernel.
