I just followed the steps provided here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1973017
But while rooting the cmd prompt just kept saying..."waiting for device"
I just closed it and tried to redo the process but none of the software is identifying my phone. My neo L just blinks with the red led but I can see the "portable device" icon in my computer.
But Initially I had made it to MSC and usb debugging ...Now can I get back my phone to normal

please help me
For flashing ftf files you must connect your phone in flash mode. When it is in flash mode the green led will light.
Enable USB debugging and set the phone to msc mode when connecting with USB. Also enable unknown sources.
Look here at point three for more http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792
fastboot mode: connect your phone to your computer while the phone its off and you are holding the volume up key without releasing it the notification led should turn on blue
flash mode: connect your phone to your computer while the phone its off and you are holding the volume down key without releasing it the notification led should turn on green

Guys, I tried rooting my XU thru flashtool, but so far I havent had success.
OK, here's what I do, correct me if I'm wrong.
- First of all turn on debugging mode in phone and also tick non-market apps.
- flashtool recognises my phone after connecting. Select the Padlock icon and choose superuser.
- flashtool begins process of rooting, but I dont get the ROOTME in backup and restore.
P.S I'm on stock ICS.
Here's log file from flashtool.

My phone was already rooted using flashtool using 0.2.9.1 GB-ready and had unlocked bootloader. However on updating flashtool, the app tells me that my phone isn't rooted and doesn't have an unlocked bl as well.

Can anybody tell me the solution for this? I had xrecovery installed previously, I tried using SuperOneClick 2.3.3. Funny thing is that I can root my phone(shell root as well) and then start Flashtool 0.9.9 which will detect my phone as rooted(!).. but I can't install CWM recovery.. everytime I do so I get a process done message but if I go into Tools->Reboot->Recover->Specific Recovery all I get is a blank screen.
Now if I restart my phone after getting it rooted from superoneclick, it gets unrooted automatically! This is getting very confusing.. Can somebody help me please?
OP sorry, I have no answers, but I have the same/similar problem.
I figure if I add my information to the information you have provided we may collectively invite some comment to stair us in the direction to an answer.
OP, hope that's OK with you.
Just one thing OP, have you installed the Flashtool 0.9.9 Windows update/bug fix (assuming you're using windows)??

I used a 'World' GB 2.3.3 ftf see above.
I have also installed GB using Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) which provides the same base OS.
[Root XPERIA X10i using FlashTool 0.9.9]
I have rooted the device using ZergRush exploit from Flashtools 0.9.9 with update patch FlashTool-windows-0.9.9update1.zip
To do this, I started the phone and enabled debug and unknown source.
With the phone still up and running and Flashtool 0.9.9 also running, I plugged in the USB cable.
I select the "My X10" option -> root -> Force ZergRush and the process then rooted the phone and the phone rebooted with root access, no problems there.

I can also install CWM recovery this way too.
After I have gained root access I have the phone up and running and again plug the USB cable in.
I select recovery mode option in Flashtool 0.9.9 and I'm requested to power down my phone and reconnect.
This then installs a recovery mode, either CWM or xRecovery depending on which one I select.
Again, this is all good and I can boot into either xRecovery or CWM recovery depending on which is installed.
I have installed and used other versions of Flashtool, however the outcomes always seems to be the same.
If I attempt to install a CM9/CM10 ftf I get the following error message:

At the moment I have just given up until I have some good leads to renew my CM9/CM10 install efforts.
At the moment I have GB 2.3.3 rooted with ZergRush exploit.
xRecovery installed
DooMLoRD DooMkernel V6 install with overclocked CPU of 1152MHz
The phone is up and running, rooted and has a modified Kernel which I recovered via xRecovery backup restore.
So, I have a working GB 2.3.3 phone with root access....but I want more...
My phone seems to be a one trick pony and I don't seem to be able to install CM9/CM10 with the information I have to hand.
Any thoughts I why I'd be getting the "SIN header verification failed" message????

Don't 'freak out' when you see "Bootloader status : UNROOTABLE" scroll across the screen. My heart sunk when I saw that, but I let the first phase of the process complete and then connect the phone to the USB cable after the phone had re-booted with Flashtool 0.8.6 (in my case) still running and the process completed. In my case I got my phone back unlocked and still rooted. All good.
I'm pretty sure my bootloader was not locked when I started out a year or so ago, but I can't be absolutely sure; so somehow it's seems to have become locked during that time. Maybe because I was just recovering the same build each time I never installed anything else to check.
Like the OP, I originally rooted my phone by using 0.2.9.1 GB-ready using a convoluted process compared to todays one click root process.
Now when I flash a ftf file in Flashtool it runs through without any errors.
I was then able to go on and install [CM10] v4 (Torch) by: scritch007 without any problems.
Hope some of this information can help others.
My downloaded Flashtool has a virus. So I use the 0.9.0.0 version and it works ok.
I had the same issue too with v 0.9.9.0. for rooting I use v 0.6.8.0
