i cant get the device to boot into flashmode anymore.
there used to glow a green or blue led light when i connected the device in flash or fastboot mode.
at the current state all i can get is the red led on top to glow if i connect to charger or usb.
im willing to give the device away if someone wants to change for any working sony smartphone..

Remove the battery. ..wait for about a minute...then reinsert battery and boot into fastboot mode by pressing VOLUME UP key and plug in the usb

Just remove your battery hold down forminute and by pressing
(volume down + plug the usb cable)
U can see green led...and ofcourse flash tool log also said the device connected in flashboot mode...
Now select the firmware.ftf and start flashing.
Restart ur phone done..!
Enjoy.
If you are still problem let me know.

I bricked my phone
I bricked my xperia U as well... When i tried to power ON, it just vibrates and nothing happens, i dont even get the sony logo. When i get into flash boot mode it gets connected but after 30secs, the phone turns off again. Only fastboot mode stays on. How can i unbrick my phone??? Plz help. I made a mistake by flashing the custom jelly bean rom without flashing the kernel first.

Well no need to panic....
As ur saying ur device connects in fastboot mode just flash the kernel with CWM recovery (r d one u got iwth the zip in JB rom)..
den install JB from the zip (assuming zip present in sdcard)......
it will solve ............
By the way ur bootloader unlocked? or not?
Just fixed it.

I have an unlocked bootloader. I tried using fastboot to flash the kernel.elf file in the JB rom zip file but it failed. It said my device had to be rooted and all but my device was already rooted. I used the flashboot fix specified in the thread attached below. It worked and i flashed a stock rom just to be safe and get a working phone.

Thanks for the help though.

Wrond forum, it should be in Q&A. If you can enter flash mode flash with flash tool (find fw around this forum). Try changing the kernel to stock with adb command (not that tool you are using) fastboot flash boot (name of the kernel). Charge it for an hour and see what happens. Post the flash tool log here.

Flash the boot.img from the CM9.1 zip file (fastboot flash boot boot.img). Then reboot into recovery by holding the power and vol+ buttons until the phone vibrates 3 times, then boot (power button) and press vol+ when the button lights come on.
Then follow the instructions given before by DavidMKD.

as far as i know, if the phone turn on any led, is still alive, try using flashtool and the original .tft, go for it in the P Development Section, download the 6.1.B.0.544 (Generic Version) and try to flash it, it might work, but you need to know this, if you flash it, you can void the warranty of the operator and if you unlocked the bootloader sony can't repair it (warranty void too) (i remember this was in the ToS of the bootloader unlock web)
Good luck.

do this, plug in the charger and let it charge (about 3 hours) and try to turn it on, if its a kernel problem, at least the phone try to boot up or turn on the backlight and get freezed, it's a OS/Kernel problem, but the question is, did you flash the correct kernel on it? remember the codename for xperia p is NYPON, inside the flashtool folders are the fastboot.exe, try to flashing a advanced kernel (the one made by DoomLoRD) and check for the phone, if it boot up until the xperia logo, everything is ok.

First, don't panic.
i made the same mistake when i flashed the first kernel, i think i messed up everything and... i recovered my phone xD
flash this kernel and hope the best, the instructions are in the post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716966
first of all dont worry just know that when u press all the three buttons at the same time it reboots and when u still keep them pressed it shuts off completely
i have an xperia p and had the same problem
what u have to do is rlly simple
first unzip the kernel (boot.img) from the fxp144_cm9.1 zip file
now copy this file into the folder in android sdk/tools or platform-tools (basically any folder with the fastboot.exe )
hope u have installed fastboot drivers
now switch off ur fone completely
and then connect ur fone in fastboot mode by pressing the vol up key and connecting the usb
(hope it goes into fastboot mode)
run this command in cmd in the folder containing the fastboot.exe
fastboot flash boot boot.img
this flashes the kernel
using falshtools u can either flash the zip file or u can do it through recovery if its alread in ur sd card
do it twice bcoz the firs time it flashes the kernel
if none works switch of ur fone completely, press the vol down button and connect the usb
this puts the phone in flash mode and u can flash ftf files of stock roms
all the best
P.S all this will work if u have an unlocked bootloader by the method giiven on sony's official site

i thing my phone is discharged. cant turn it on.
and cant charge too
keep the phone charging, the led doen't matter as far as i know.
last option is going to a sony service or something like that.
i think you should try to remove battery first. i used this method to recover my p. i opened the back cover and removed the battery for a few minutes and then did nothing but connected it in fastboot and flashed the correct kernel.
to remove back cover you have to remove two screws at the both sides and two under the bar over the camera. just remove the top plastic cover and you will be able to access the screws. then just remove the battery connector for a few minutes reconnect it and try flashing kernel again. i wish it also work for you bro. good luck. :good:

If you haven't done it yet, pull out the battery, put it back in and try to get into bootloader or recovery. (the pulling out the battery part is important)
by the way, what exactly is happening when you try to boot? please describe step by step what is happening. And what do you mean by boot "into hboot"?
And how did you try to go back to stock? Did you even get into the stock rom. Didn't you just forgot to flash the boot.img when going back to stock?

3. hold power button + vol up, again just blank screen no boot.
4. when us connected led lights up, and PC detects as "unknown device found".

Is the blue led still on, or is it just stuck in boot loop, or both?
Try to turn it off, long press power | volume up button untill you feel 3 consecutive vibrations.

You have to install the drivers first in order to get your phone recognized. Try pressing Vol Up + Power to shut down the phone. Hold it for 10 seconds and then enter fastboot mode and flash using flashtool.

Your flash tool is able to detect your phone? Just open flash tool and then remove the battery of the phone ,reinsert it and hold your menu button while you connect to the PC. (you will see green LED glowing). It will turn on the flash mode and flash the stock ICS ftf file .. I think it should work.
