Hi I have Xperia GO ST27i and I've tried to unlock bootloader with flashtool, and there says that I have not have drivers installed, but I do, I tried installing drivers for fastboot with android_winusb.inf and it showed me error that drivers are damaged or something like that. I've tryed unlocking bootloader with offical xperia unlocking guide (their website) and in the cmd it didn't detect my phone probably because of drivers S1Boot Fastboot.
I would realy appriciate any kind of help,

If you go into the installation folder for flashtool there is a folder called drivers which contains an .exe program, they have 99.9% of the drivers available for xperia devices, install the fastboot and flash drivers aswell as any others that correspond with your device, it would help if you looked up the chipset if in doubt.
Hopefully once you've installed these drivers then you should be ok, remember to switch your phone off and hold down the volume up button when putting in the usb cable in order to enter fastboot mode, the blue LED light should light up if it works.

Try to install the drivers that are in the /drivers folder where you installed flashtool, otherwise install Sony Update Service or PC Companion to get the proper drivers for your phone. Fastboot is not supported on the U20, so choose flashmode for anything you want to do.

Yes i did these things. i plug device to pc , everything workss good , i get run bootloader -> i must unplug the device -> press back and plug in. After that log writes 'cancelled' no drivers atd. :/
Recently, i tried unlocking bootloader for my xperia sola 6.1.1.b.1.54 and i had a big problem which i saw many users had i.e. installing the fastboot drivers. I tried everything, from trying to install the drivers from device manager to flashtool but everytime my sola got disconnected n plugged into charging. i simply run the Flashtool-drivers.exe in the flashtool dir, checked xperia sola, flashmode drivers, fastboot drivers and ignored all the prompts and copied 'android_winusb.inf' from 'usb_driver' to "C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Temp\fastboot" and BAM !! It worked
You can get the usb_driver and flashboot files just pm
hope this helps

Once you connect your phone via usb and while you are pressing volume up button, on windows go start-> right click on computer->devices manager. Now you should see your device. Right click and install drivers manually from the folder of the drivers you downloaded.
Notice that you have to be fast since and that maybe you will have to repeat this procedure several times since firsts times phone remains on fastboot for really few seconds.
You can also try another way. Download and install latest flashtool. After that go to Computer-> C:/-> Flashtool-> Drivers-> run Flashtool-drivers. Install the drivers for your device.

Thank u DaRk-L0rD. Its working fine :good:
Xperia MINI ST15i
I have exhausted every method I can find. Fastboot seems to be broken. Fastboot and Flashtool both do not detect the device when it shows BlueLED(fastboot). PC Companion doesn't detect at all.
Flash Mode seems to be working. It seemed like it was flashing, progress bar and everything. When it was done it said for FLASHTOOL, the phone has to have usb debugging and unknown sources checked. Being that I am bricked, there is no proper system installed .
In FLASHTOOL & EMMA unlock bootloader doesn't work. I got the code for it to do in FASTBOOT or keypad but neither are accessible.
I believe I flashed a recovery for the wrong xperia model =/
Are there any other potential solutions?
Hello, trying to custom ROM my Z3CT. My bootloader should be unlockable (verified on sony webpage), but I am unable to connect tablet in fastboot mode. I have installed USB drivers via device manager, I have also downloaded platform tools. I turn on my device holding VOLUME UP+POWER and plug in USB cable. Device now shows in my PC devices as "S1 Service". It seems like there aren´t any drivers, so I tried to download USB drivers with android_winusb file. But it won´t update. When I run command "fastboot devices" nothing returns. How can I make my tablet talk to the PC? I am sure bootloader is unlockable.
Same situation here. Did you find any solutions?

Same problem here too. I do get the blue LED light, but still no response.
I think you have got not all necessary drivers installed. One way to get them is installing Flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/
Boot Z3TC up and connect it via USB. Then start Flashtool. If ADB-connection is enabled in Z3TC developer settings, Flashtool will recognize your Z3TC.
Then start c:\flashtools\drivers\Flashtool-drivers.exe - this should have been downloaded meanwhile by flashtool. Before this, you should disconnect Z3TC.
Install all drivers Flashtool-drivers.exe will offer. You will need to disable UAC to do this. Driver will stay installed after reboot and enabled UAC again.
Then Z3TC will be recognized by fastboot.

Thanks for this step by step manual. I can follow the process for the first part. Volume down and start unlocking the bootloader, but then one needs to unplug the device and press volume up and from this point on nothing happens. Tried several times and sometimes after the red led the blue one lights up, but still the process doesn't continue. (Drivers are all installed)
Any suggestions?
Are you trying to unlock the bootloader with flashtool? Please describe what you are doing there...
