If you are on cm10.1 you have an unlocked bootloader and PC Companion and SUS won't work anymore
You have to use flashtool, try it again with another ftf maybe or update flashtool. If there's still a problem, post the log to show us what's wrong

[Q] My phone is stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo!

Hi guys! I wasn't aware that my phone didnt have the bootloader locked, and i installed the latest KA ICS rom. Now my phone is stuck on the sony ericsson logo. What can i do to undo this?
I've installed CWM but its not of use, because its only acessible during the logo.
Oh, nevermind! I just recovered it using the pc companion

[HELP]Stock ROM

Hey XU guys!
I have an ST25i and I need a bit of help.
I am running an unknown ROM that I don't know how to fix. If any of you have...
-An Xperia U ST25i
-Rooted
-CWM installed
-Stock ROM and Kernel
Can you...
Go into CWM. Go into advanced. And do create firmware.zip and send it to me. I need it back to stock and PCC and Flashtool won't work.
Thanks!

If its all stock than sus should work, did you install all drivers? Did you connect phone properly to the pc? What is exactly your problem?

Hey
Well my problem is that I am running a ROM that is not stock
I would like to revert back to it so I may get OTA updates.
In Pcc it said my phone was already updated.
And I cannot install Flashtool. I tried to use it to root my XU and it never worked.
PS what is sus?
Thanks

Why don't you just go to settings/ about phone and see what you're running?

SUS is Sony Update Service download it and install, open choose your phone and click on update and then just follow instructions on screen of your PC

Yes but I now know what from it was. Its called Infinity Smooth Custom System ROM, and as it says in the title, it was only a system ROM, which didn't require a new boot.img to be fastboot flashed.

Is the bootloader unlocked? That may be why ota updates and pcc won't work

I could do that but I was looking up if there is a way I could relock the bootloader and restore it with PCC?
Sent from my ST25i
I think you can re lock. Not too sure how it works tho. There are definitely guides around tho!
If you're keeping the phone for yourself tho I'd keep it unlocked and just flash cm9. It'll be far faster and smoother than stock
Sent from my Android 4.2.1 Xperia S
Couple of things.
First of all thanks for all of your help.
Secondly, I am keeping it for myself, but I'm a tad concerned about installing a custom ROM and Kernel.
I have heard of CyanogenMod and apparently they offer a near stock experience. But as Flashtool is not working for me, if I fastboot flash the boot.img then would that mean I could never revert back to stock?
Sent from my ST25i using xda app-developers app
Yea you can always revert back to stock. But I promise you'll never want too. Lol. If you already have cwm then all you need to do is download the cm9 zip and flash in recovery (following instructions in the thread as to what to wipe)
As for flashtool, have you installed all the drivers from the drivers file?

[SOLVED]Xperia Neo Rooting Problems

Hello everyone
I have problem, which I didn't had before, I repaired my phone using SUS(Sony Update Service), flashed .562 Kernel, used DooMLord Toolkit for root, and after that when I try to flash back to .587 Kernel using Flashtool my phone wont go to Flashmode, nor Fastboot, this is not my first time to root my phone, I did this a lot of times, but now I have this problem, I'm using same files I used before, only newer version of Flashtool(0.9.10.1)
Any Solution?
I solved it by installing new ADB drivers for my Device and Flashtool
well since the only thing you changed is flashtool...try with the older version of flashtool..
Re: Xperia Neo Rooting Problems
Make sure you installed flashtool drivers correctly

I think that was the problem, probably something messed up when I installed the new flashtool, so I found installed new ADB drivers. Thanks

[Q] Xperia Sola stuck at Sony logo

My Xperia sola is currently stuck at the sony logo. This is because:
I installed the jellybean custom rom and forgot to make a backup. I didn't like the jellybean and wanted to return the phone back to its original state but I didn't have a backup of it.
So i flashed the kernels 6.1.1.B.1.54 and 6.1.1.B.1.10 thinking that then I could plug in my phone and repair it using Sony Pc companion and revert it back to its original state but it won't even appear in Sony Pc Companion because the phone keeps turning on and off.
What can be done?
If u hav a flashtool then just flash the stock ics ftf file and then u have your working phone!!
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium press thanks if helped!
You have unlocked the bootloader!! Sony pcc won't recognise you're device!! You need to lock you're bootloader to repair your mobile via pcc!! Just flash some ics ftf to have a working device!!

It says that I have modified software which cannot be updated
Okay I've locked the bootloader but before that I flashed the kernels again and whenever I open my phone it keeps restarting with the sony logo and I can't get into pcc to repair it. Is there another way to repair it when its in flash mode or something?:
Sorry I don't know how to help u

wich kernel did u flashed this usually happens when u have kernel/rom incompatibility
and if u use flashtool with ics ftf it should work...as not a noob said! maybe u did somthing wrong with this flash..
wich items are checked in flashtool when u flash ftf??? (kernel and rom ...those boxes)
I'm sure i have this problem with my xperia p... ROM/kernel incompatibility... how do i solve it...
Just use flastool. Download tft and flash it. You'll be ok.

1. DOWNLOAD STOCK ICS FTF
2. Flash it.
3. Done
This happens because your flashed a ICS KERNEL ON A JB rom.

Use flashtool and flash newest firmware for Your phone.
Unlock the bootloader, install CWM and flash a custom rom, the ICS update has a lot of bugs...
