in cmd try "fastboot devices" you should see your device, if not ,install drivers and try again it should work
Thats what happens when i type fastboot devices

Typical causes of that:
Not having the fastboot.exe in the folder you are working in on the PC.
or
Not in bootloader mode on the phone.

fastboot.exe is in the folder i`m sure .. but i run the phone in fastboot mode .. what is bootloader mode ?
Ohhh...is this on the D5503? Sony Xperia Z Compact? You sure you're in fastboot and not flashmode? What color is the LED? If you go into your device manager, does it show your device with or without an exclamation mark? Might have some helpful info here:

I think you might have to unlock the bootloader before regular fastboot commands work.

Ok, so what are you trying to do in fastboot?
Also, try this command to see if it works:
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version

trying to flash a kernel
It seems like the bootloader is not unlocked then. You won't be able to install a kernel without doing that first.

NNow dial *#*#7378423#*#* and navigate to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status
Now look for Bootloader Unlock Allowed
If Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes, then you may proceed
i tried that and it said yes :\
Ok, good deal. That means you can go through the steps to unlock the bootloader, not that it is already unlocked. Refer to the guide I posted and it has what other steps you need to do to proceed.

yes it reboots showing blue LED when i hold volume up while i connect the usb .. still the same problem :\
Try replacing the normal fastboot command with this:
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce
Just to clarify - You signed up @ Sony's dev site and they emailed you the key to input in the commands to unlock the bootloader?

Hi. I unlocked my phone and had it running on Android Revolution HD 9.0. After updating to Android Revolution HD 10.0 my phone keeps rebooting.
Hboot version is 1.44.0000. If there is any other info needed let me know and I will try to provide it.
yes more info. cant you get into bootloader?

Yes I can. But I can't enter into recovery. As soon as I do the phone tries to boot into clockwork mod and reboots again.
you can either get the all in one toolkit or if your familiar with fastboot and adb use "fastboot erase cache"

I can't use the all in one toolkit because the phone is not on USB debugging mode.

Hello,
Since my tf201 was getting really slowly I was thinking of putting a custom rom on it, since those are faster(?) than the stock rom. I found out that androwook is a pretty decent custom rom so I wanted to install it, only 1 problem. I have 0 knowledge of this 'Rooting, flashing, fastbooting..." The instructions on how to install it is useless to me. I managed to unblock it by using the asus tool, but thats as far as I got. I have absolutely no idea what to do now, is there any guide on this forum for noobs instead of experts of how to root and install custom roms?
Thanks
Have you read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26595658&postcount=1? If you come back with specific questions I'm sure you will get help

Be sure you are at the last stock jb rom, and then
0. Backup your data, and make a factory reset
1. Unlock device by executing the unlock app for TFP with WiFi on
2. Install TWRP
3. Install Hairy Recovery & Upgrade Bootloader
4. Install Hairybean 2.2
For step1 and step2, here is the ref
http://goo.gl/oROU2
After installing TWRP, power off your TFP and power on with volumn down until you see a menu showing RCK, volume up to enter TWRP
Follow the instruction of HB after you boot into TWRP(step3 and step4)

Thanks for the info, but I'm stil stuck.. I got the blob file and the fastboot.exe in the same folder, I open the command thingy on that folder, I copy this line in the command "fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob" and then it says it is not recognized as a command, programma or hatch file.. I'm starting to think this rooting stuff is nothing for me haha

Did yo navigate to the fastboot folder? For example, if your folder "fastboot" is at the root of C:
Then you have to navigate to C:\fastboot first. --> cd c:\fastboot

Yes.. Still won't work, I think ill just let my tablet as it as. I did the factory reset and it runs a whole lot faster now, only problem is that I only used my tablet to watch tv (My operator has a app named tv overal to watch tv on your tablet/phone) Problem is it wont work anymore because it has detected that I rooted my tablet, so now I've reached absolutely nothing, no custom rom and my only app I use frequently doenst work anymore... God I should have never started this haha

Maybe you can try to boot into fastboot mode and connect TFP to your PC, in the command windows type "fastboot reboot"
Check whether if your TFP reboot

If you don't rename it. Then the command should be look like this "fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf201-JB.blob"
Now you can flash the rom you like and enjoy it

Hi everyone,
So after deciding whether to do it or not, i finally unlocked my BL yesterday. At least when i dial the secret number and look at BL info, it says "UNLOCK".
But I've been trying to flash cwm and rooting but it seems my device is not being recognised in cmd.
And i am having difficulties to install fastboot drivers again because my device is not showing up at all in device manager.
If you could kindly list some simple instructions on how to flash cwm and rooting on unlocked BL (Before you ask, yes i went through all the guides with no avail) or help me to install flashboot drivers properly, it would be appreciated.
Thank you and good day.
EDIT 1: I can boot in fastboot mode, But when i do adb devices, driver installation fails and thus the command for flashing cwm says "waiting for device" and never flashes.
EDIT 2: From what i have searched from previous posts , i need to wait 30mins, I will do that and report.... Hopefully it will work
If you can boot into fastboot then do fastboot devices, adb devices are commands in adb mode, not fastboot mode, instead of flashing through adb use fastboot flash , hope I help!

Sorry,
I actually did what u said.
But when i type the command (in cmd) : C:\Android>fastboot devices ---> The command is accepted and there is a driver installation which fails.
Even then i continued and typed : C:\Android>fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-p760.img
But with the second command, it simply says "waiting for device" in the command window, but nothing happens.
