It's a common problem in stock 2.3.7 Gingerbread. I had it too. Simply update to Android 4.0.4 (6.1.1.B.1.100) firmware using Flashtools and this problem will be solved.
Hit Thanks if I helped =D
@ABU JHL
Can you connect in fastboot mode?
Turn it off first then try.
Don't rush to update to ICS you might regret you did later.

Mass storage when it is off? Is yhat normal or feature of GB? Mine not showing on PC when it's off.
Try this, turn the phone off, press volume up and connect to the PC, then try the same with volume down. In one the lerd should turn blue and the other green, not sure which is which in xperia u.
It would be good if you download flashtool before you try this and open it while you try and copy and post the log in the window.
Also install drivers located in flashtool directory in "drivers", you need to install 3 drivers for XPU and flash and fasboot mode drivers at the bottom of the list.

Have you tried more than once, both modes?
What windows version you have?
And do not attempt to do anything with flashtool yet, just leave it open when you connect the device, log level info.

No no need to unlock bootloader, let me try something with my phone before I can tell you what you may try.

Please try the flash mode for more then a second.
We need to make sure it stay in this mode for about 45 seconds before it disconnets.
And fastboot should also stay on for more than just few seconds.

How do you mean lost everything?
Can you boot amd use the device now?
Upgrading to ICS is up to you.I don't have XU but from what I read in the forum it lags and has lots of problems, so if you are happy with your device I'd advise against upgrading.
As you know bootloader deletes all apps and contacts et.. Reset factory settings , and thanks for advice ! , I juwat want to root it , I downloaded a tft file from flashtool website , but idk what to do with it any help to root? MY build is .188 not .184

Maybe the root for 184 will work.
For some new versions of ICS downgrading the kernel to the version that is rooted make it possible to root newer versions, you can try that but make sure you have the original firmware and or kernel to revert to before you attenpt something like that, or rooting at all.

unlocking the bootloader doesn't wipe anything. I've unlocked 4 on different Xperia's and never lost apps and data

don't use flashtool for bootloader unlock.
download -
https://app.box.com/s/sxi55t3fci4iodx9oh8c
and follow the guide on here -
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
then make sure you have extract the fastboot usb file (you should have for unlock) go to the fastboot folder and put a boot.img in it. go back out a level and right click on the fastboot folder icon and choose open command window here.
then power the phone off.
hold volume up and connect to the pc.
type - fastboot devices
and it should reply something (can't remember what)
then type - fastboot flash boot boot.img
it should go through a quick little process and say completed in a few seconds?

[Guide][28-01-12]Xtra Noob guide to help you to get 62 rooted for Neo & V Locked Bl
Alright this is a guide for those that have firmware 62 that can not be rooted,
if you have updated with official SE programs,
i help you people to get 62 rooted !!
This is working for both, Neo And Neo V
and this is with kernel and Firmware !!
Important !!! >> OTA << is over the AIR and NOT with Pc Companion !!!
I Hope That You Peeps Understand This NOW !!
I Dont Tell It 10,000 TIMES !!
* OTA is with the phone itself so no cables, pc etc. NEEDED !! *
For OTA do this:
* Go to Settings
* Go to about phone
* Go to software update
* 1st Install Flashtool. File here:
http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
* If the new flashtool dont work for you, choose the older version of it !!
* Get the tft file here and choose for flashable 42
This is for Neo:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1258723
This is for Neo V:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19808360&postcount=3
* Then open de winzip file with win.rar or another program
and put the tft file into firmwares folder in the flashtool menu
(go to your computer then C driver and open flashtool en there you will see
firmwares folder so put the tft file there)
* Open flashtool(double click on the icon or shortcut you have make on you desktop
or go to your C driver and go to flashtool)
* Flashmode:
* Connect your device in flashmode,
* That is pressing the back button on you phone when it`s off
* Connect you usb cable
* wait till flashtool is done( phone reboots automatic)
* flash the file 42 with flashtool,
tick only wiping data & cache.
* turn you phone on
* set usb debugging on
* then go to flashool, advance, root and then
go to zergRush Exploit
* If the Root from flashtool dont work for you,
Use this from DooMlord:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320350
* your phone is rooted now and then do the OTA
to get firmware 62 and you done !!
* Last one to install CWM,
* Get the file here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?73xv18tht0e8zt4
these are the steps:
increase your screen timeout to 10 min !!
1. Extract the above files
2. Browse to the Folder
3.Enable USB Debugging on device
4.Connect your device using usb data cable
5. Run " install-cwm1.cmd" for Neo V
6.Follow on screen instruction

Can I install cwm after using superoneclick
(superoneclick used the zergRUSH exploit)
And if yes, when installing clockwork mod recovery, do i have to keep the sd card mounted or unmount it?
But if we flash ONLY .42 kernel (kernel.sin) will it works?
Because kernel is 6Mb file only and all process is way faster. ??

To others why you say that neo is better, and why is it crash all the time if you try this if it is for neo v.
These are the right steps, so more simpler then this i cant make, i do these steps and get never an error, some doing some wrong things

Thanks for this, but is there a way to do this by unlocking the bootloader?
I have already tried unlocking the bootloader physically using the test point, but it didn't work - still says the BL is locked.
I have tried your way, and it works! But I want to install a custom ROM on my Xperia Neo, and every time I install a custom ROM using the CW-Install, it gets hung during boot up.
I should never have switched from HTC...

Which phone do you have main, this is for neo v, its so simple just follow the steps correctly and its done, not so hard to understand. Damn!
I have NEO and just NEo mt15i and im FIX it phone havent 0% of battery i use this GUIDE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312398
and work fine for me EXACLY this part
1. Read the full post, especially the FAQ. In case of doubt, you can use this guide to know how to do things:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1133650
2. Unlock booloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1034087
3. Grab the most recent kernel patch from this thread. The file is boot.img.xxx.7z for your phone (ARC / NEO). We call this the kernel patch, or only the patch.
4. You must be same firmware and patch version, so if you aren't firmware xxx, use flashtools to flash the correct firmware. and wipe the data if downgrading firmware version. You can find some recent stock firmwares in the [Firmwares (.FTF)] section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1304634
5. Use fastboot to flash boot.img contained in file boot.img.xxx.arc.7z (or boot.img.xxx.neo.7z for NEO users). Flash the .img file, not the .7z file .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1116970
6. Now you have a phone showing allways 85% battery capacity
7. Install most recent FuelGaugeFixV??.apk from this thread (Bazoocaze version).
8. For the first time, make sure the charger is plugged, and select "Start full charge" from the apk fix menu (use the menu button to show options). A full charge takes 3h00 ~ 3h40.
9. Now you have a fully charged phone, and apk fix updates battery % acordingly to phone usage.
10. See "Kernel issues" and "APK issues".
11. Press the tanks button on this thread, and optionally feel free to buy me some gift/beer/pizza/coffe.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/dona....php?u=4215483
12. Finish
From end of post im download boot.img.4.0.2.A.0.42.neo.7z cos i have soft 0.42 instal it by fast boot and work for me then install charger monitor and for now phone is charging to full

RAY or other xperias WITHOUT using PC Companion or Flashtool.
First, Download the executable here
Install on a Windows PC
Once installed, Update Service should start automatically. If not, find it in the Start menu.
Find the RAY from the list
It will ask you to connect your phone by taking out the battery, waiting 5 seconds before putting the battery back in again, then pressing and holding the Back button while inserting the MicroUSB cable into the RAY
Release the back button when told to do so
Update Service will download the latest ROM, then flash it to your phone
Unplug your phone, then turn it on and it is guaranteed to work if you follow the instructions step by step
I hope this helped, and if it worked for you, Thanks to NathanBookham.

Hello,
I tried rooting my phone with the instructions you've provided. They all goes well! But after the last step I start my phone it has all software that are included in the full Kernel... But Superuser app is missing and I cannot open any application that requires root access, they all say Device is not rooted. Any idea what could be going wrong?

Sorry I missed a step over there, since i mentioned kernel, i thought you would know..

U need to exclude System, baseband, Fota, TA
I'm pretty sure u did that step wrong.. Sorry to say but now u have to do the entire process again..
To help you with this, here's how the Flastool looks
HI,

Link2SD
Hello,
Does anyone here use Link2SD with their rooted xperia pro's (rooted with this guide
and with this built)? I'm asking because I have this phone and obviously followed
the above guide which worked perfectly btw but I'm getting weird problems with
Link2SD and I wondered if it might be a consequence of the kerneltrick applied here?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Usui218
Hey, if you already had a rooted phone with another kernel version, do you have to do all the rooting procedure again, or do you simply flash the new kernel?
Thanks

Hi XDA.
I've been searching and searching for the answer on XDA and other websites and can't quite find the answer i need.
I'm on GB 2.3.4.42 with root and CWM Recovery installed (with a few backups made on the SD Card with a locked bl)
I have checked my phone and I have a locked bootloader which cannot be unlocked (as far as i know?) And I was wondering if it is possible that flashing the stock ICS would work even if my bootloader is locked?
If I could also have a little help on how I would do this that would be fantastic.
Thank you again for taking your time to help me out. Such a noob lol.
Edit:
Added log when I try to flash:

Take care guys and thanks a lot for your help.

Try with Sony Mobile Update Serivice before (normal update), full factory restore. Why using flashtool to update?
If with flashtool:
Try again, re download firmware .587 from THIS (why previous .431 if you are flashing?)full charge, disable antivirus or firewall.
Select all wipes, no excludes, check "no final verification".
Enable usb debug on the phone and then shut it off. Connect it (when power off connect it while long pressing "back button") to the pc following flashtool points.
BTW are you really saying that you couldn't find any answer to "Can I update to ICS still I am with locked bootloader?" Maybe you didn't search too much, beacuse it is quite known by all that locked bootloader means that you can flash only original signed Sony firmware.
In fact you had not to worry about bootloader, if you didn't know anything about it and you didn't touch it :good:
So, in final, do you know what are you doing, before messing up something?

Just use seus..just follow the step..

Thanks for your help so far guys, I do know what I'm doing generally but when I go to flash now i've encountered another problem:
When I put debug on, put it into msc and then reboot the phone ready for flash I get this error and the whole thing aborts. This happens with Sony Companion (when I tried the .62 update) and SUS - which meant i couldn't get past the 3rd page :C
Any idea what the problem is?

Does this happen with other usb devices..or only with the phone???
If it happens with all devices..then restart pc..happened to me once..restarting solved it..
If its only with the phone..then reinstall ADB DRIVERS.. Goto Flashtool >drivers and click on Flashtool-drivers.exe
Just try again It will work

Apreicate your help.
When I go to reinstall the Drivers I forgot to mention this and didn't really think anything of it, I get this error:
The phone also doesn't appear in my driver manager either =/
The error I get:
Also showing my phone connected to my pc:
I have absolutely no clue where to go from here :c
+Xperia > Connect > MSC
+Developer Options > USB Debugging on
+Security > Unknown Resources
+Install Drivers : Flashmode // ADB Neo drivers
+Make Sony PC Companion recognize your phone.After it recognizes..close it.
+If your system is 32 bit , open flashtool.exe if it is 64 bit , open flashtool64.exe .
+Sometimes windows install drivers for your phone.Wait until it finish.
+And don't forget.Don't open Flashtool - doom or other root / boot stuffs together.ADB servers will be out of date.So just open flashtool.
+If you have a antivurs, close it.
+If there is another program which can delete files automatically..you should close it too!
+Be fast when you are trying to make phone enter flashmode.Don't wait much.
+When you try to install drivers, installer will open.And it will ask you for your permission.Just accept all of them.
Don't forget wipe data / cache..and be sure that .ftf is right.
I hope you will make it
Is that Windows8??....then the best option would be to use a Win7 pc..but if u dont have one rite now..
In your device manager..goto Sony saXXXX..update ADB interface driver software..if that doesnt work then..
uninstall driver..disconnect usb..unselect USB debuggin..reselect it and plug in the usb..let windows install drivers..
Thanks so much guys for your help!
I've just changed from the USB2.0 port to a 3.0 and the S1Boot driver suddenly installed and now flashing! I'll edit this when its finished flashing!

hmm..it should say flashing finished almost instantaneously..at this point..
Did u follow the steps mentioned in my guide perfectly??? wipe data, cache, apps log before flashing??
If you look at the middle you Will see "not rootable", so probably you've done something wrong.
Why did you use S1 driver?
Anyway uninstall flashtool, then open update service and follow it to the end. This should make you connect the phone in flashmode and the driver Will be installed automatically if connected to the net.
...and you Will install ics.
Again use flashtool only if Update Service is not helping you in order to get what you want.

Sorry I couldn't reply sooner, been busy.
Anyways, I stopped the flash while it was in progress which "bricked" it. So I used SEUS to restore it and then used your instructions to reflash it again. Worked flawlessly the second time! Thank you so much everyone for your help! :good:

I've tried FlashTool But when it says that i've to connet my phone holding the back button , nothing happens , sometimes after connected for some seconds the green light flashes and the sony logo appears but after some minutes all go down .
