You can try using adb commands or Flashtool to boot into fastboot...

to enter fastboot in flashtool we have to press volume up key while connecting, but volume up key is not working in my phone.
so is there a way to install cm10 in flashmode itself

But you can't install a custom rom in flashmode. Try to reboot in fastboot mode using adb. Setup adb on your PC and reboot using adb or click in flashtool on "reboot in fastboot mode" when your phone is turned on

On some phones fastboot is disabled
But how did you unlock if fastboot would be disabled? And what happens if you connect your phone and in flashtool you select "reboot in fastboot mode" ?
I connect phone to flashtool and it reboot and don't happen nothing.

But i haven't got fastboot because i have branded phone.
What can I do about it?
If you unlocked your phone via testpoint method, then your bootloader should be unlocked and fastboot enabled.
Try connecting your phone in fastboot mode - Hold down Menu button, connect USB cable. If LED turns blue, your phone is in fastboot mode.
And no, kernels only via fastboot for our devices.

First of all thois not the thread to ask you should post in troubleshhoting n disussion thread....
If u want to instal cm10 u should flash the respective kernel
U can go into fastbbot by flashtool itself just cliick on fastbbot mode-->rebbot into fastbppt(via adb)
That's it ur phone will enter into fastboot

Connect your phone to the PC via USB-cable. Open a terminal window on your phone. Type in:
Code:
su
At the next prompt simply type:
Code:
reboot bootloader
Dance with joy as your phone goes black then lights up the blue LED. You are now in fastboot mode. You can now install a new kernel.
Code:
fastboot flash boot kernel.img

Could you get into fastboot mode?

I not get into fastboot mode!

in the system files the adb file exists but the fastboot file is missing !
Did you check usb debugging in developer options and oem unlock checked?

Volume down did nothing.
Volume up started a firmware update that is stuck at 0%. Had to remove the battery to reboot.

Just boot to TWRP and flash SuperSu zip. Wipe data if needed. You can't boot without root
If you are on the Sony logo bootloop, press "vol-" until next reboot. Don't plug USB to Pc when doing that or you will boot in flashmode.

Can you boot the device in flashmode? Are you sure that you used the good rootpack?

You probably have a problem with drivers, you don't need to enable debugging or unknown sources to flash in flashmode.

Don't be a troll, this phone is great but Flashtool IS the problem. You tried to ask the author of the soft? I think no!
You know that some Xperia C and M have similar problems?
:crying:I think the problem was from flashtool..too many user brick their xa ultra right now..
