What do you mean several firmwares?
You had to flash the .ftf file for your device my friend.

I dont know if the problem is software related then this procedure will work
www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/ and if bootloader unlocked you can use other kernels which capable with your device first try sony updater and if problem will be same then try to unlock bootloader and flash other kernel to unlocking bootloader give a search on your device thread good luck

Try removing the battery for 30 minutes or more. Then reput the battery and flash the unbrick.ftf (link on attachments)
Then flash the stock firmware this via flashtool
Then flash the stock firmware again.

First Check your touchscreen work fine on GB if yes then its a s/w problem if not then maybe its h/w problem

Hmm... In the first post you said that you your bootloader is locked. Try the Sony PC Compnion and choose the first option, "repair your phone" or similar. If that doesn't help, then unlock your bootloader and flash a costum kernel with a rom. Here is a good an easy to use tool for unlocking your BL.

You need to flash a stock ftf after relocking. It shouldn't have booted if the relock worked. Try relocking again and keep the stock ftf ready

Please help me. I bricked my friends WT19i after trying to flash RealICS rc5.2... i don't know what to do now and how to get his handphone working again. I am stressed. His bootloader is locked. And i flashed CWM using X tool from Play Store. His phone is rooted. I downgraded his firmware from 0.62 to 0.58 using Flashtool, then rooted it, and OTA update back to 0.62 then installed CWM using X tool. Then i tried to flash the RealICS rom and his hp is stuck at Sony Ericsson logo. I cant even get into recovery mode. Please help me. Please please please.

Relax guy, you just need upgrade to ics stock rom, root, install cwm, or you can using extended kernel by expeacer, if you want to install real ics your kernel must ics kernel..
Sent from my Xperia Mini Pro using XDA
You can use krsh or stock kernel... Or you can flash his phone to compete stock... I think unlocking bootloader is not required for installing real ics unless you are flashing custom kernel.... Better not to void its warranty....

Man, just root your phone with local-prop method (look in my signature in the rooting guide, there's a link to a tutorial how to root ics, which is very easy)
When you are on ics, just get cwm and install real ics lite like explained in it's thread.
Don't unlock bootloader, it's not required! Unlocking bootloader voids warranty and you don't need to do it.
And you can't install a custom kernel on locked bootloader, so do it like I've written and just first install offical ics and after that flash real ics

Go to this nice tutorial, there's explained how to flash gingerbread stock rom and root ics, cause you must do it with local-prop/push-root-files method. Just do it like explained there.
After wards install cwm and flash real ics lite for locked bootloader, but check what has to be wiped/formatted (for example do a factory reset or wipe cache). Just look in the real ics thread

Xperia Sola MT27i update not functioning

I bought an Xperia Sola online recently, since the day i relieved it, i am trying to update it. I tried all methods possible and also the ones suggested by the Xperia care. When I checked online, it says my device should be running software version 6.1.1.B.*, i.e. ICS but by all methods tried, it says my device is up to date. Currently running gingerbread software version 6.0.B.3.814.
Please help. I do not want to root my device or run any custom ROM. I want to update to ICS Xperia.

Warranty maybe void only if you unlock bootloader or root.
So flashing ftf will not,I guess.

Bullsh*t. There IS CWM for GB (locked BL) , as I used it when I was on 2.3. As I remember you can use the one that is running on ICS. When I got near a PC, I'll provide you a link.
EDIT:
I've not even needed to sit to a PC
So here's a CWM that surely works on GB (locked BL):
