tft should be in C:\Users\******\.flashTool\firmwares, if using newest flashtool.
Location Location Location.
Make sure the firmware is in here C:\Users\NAME\.flashTool\firmwares. And not here C:\Flashtool. Just checking
Failing that use xperifirm to download the most recent firmware via flashtool and it will placed in correct location for you.

Okay, I have a big problem with my phone, I decided to redo the operating system to a new version/ROM because the one i was using on it before several issues where coming up with it, 1: I Couldn't connect to other providers even though i had phone unlocked. 2: Some default programs where having problems starting.
So When doing a kernel upgrade my phone did not respond kept staying for 2 hours on the "SE" logo, and would not budge, so i decided to remake it, after about 4 hours i was able to get a OS on it, but this OS was older and out of date, when trying to go back to xRecovery it did not want to come up, i downloaded a Reboot to Recovery APK, which informed me that My "xRecovery" was not installed, which is weird because it was installed before.
I been trying to get the Default root method to install xRecovery which every time i ran the "Flash tools" program, it would not allow me to install xRecovery.
If anyone can contact me on skype "mradziwilko" to help me out, or post here ill be here checking on forum every min.
Thanks
Anyone would love some help?

Hi buddy, Have you tried to use ftf file like zahdi5h, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212260 to update?
You have to have unlocked boot loader and you can drag and drop the ftf into flash tool. Make sure you tick no final verification in flashtool or you will get error.
If that don't work then I suggest starting over with fresh 2.3.3.
Go back to stock using Sony Ericsson Update Service (seus) Use google or search threads for program.
Then just re-do, unlock boot loader and install recovery again with flashtool.
Hopefully zahdi5h ftf file will get you out of trouble.

I downloaded this FTF File, when opening it with the latest Flash Tool, it does not Recognize it.
Is their a possability you can link me another FTF, i know CM9 worked, but because i dont have a boot loader i need a ftf to be flashed, i tried with the IMG file, but the flashtool.exe keeps saying <Waiting for Device> and does nothing.
Also to add more info :
My Phone I thought was originaly a Xperia X10a, which it bios it says its a Xperia X10i.

Hi mate is your boot loader unlocked? If not then unlock it with flashtool. Try Version 0.9.10.1 of flashtool. Work's for me.
Download from http://androxyde.github.io/index.html?1373179542000
And you can also drag and drop the FTF file into flash-tool. FTF contains Kernel and rom., tick the no final verification box on bottom right.

Yes, i did try that tool, problem is I cant find a FTF File that works, I did try that one the person message but the program doesn't recognize it as a valid FTF file, re-downloaded it 5 times now.
So I downloaded the firmware I want with XperiFirm (it's the newest stock firmware for my region - 3.111) aaand I don't really know how to flash it. XperiFirm just gave me a folder with a bunch of files and there is no .ftf file which I thought flashtool needed. Can anyone give me a quick "tutorial" on how to flash this to my device? Thanks EDIT: I started flashing but the process seems to be stuck at "Opening TA Partition 1" Should I just give it more time or try again?
U need to compile that folder in to a ftf file using flashtool. After that u can flash it. Tools/bundles/create thats where u can compile it. If u don't know how to proceed from that point just search from google "how to make ftf file with flashtool"

Hello, I had installed xzu dual recovery and then flashed cm 11 but the problem is after flashing cm 11 I lost my recovery and when I tried to reflash it it dosent get installed when I try to boot in recovery the screen gets stuck at sony logo,please help I do have a nandroid backup,I even tried to flash stock ftf via flashtool but installation gets aborted due to no reason please help I want to go back on stock
I got stuck with recovery also, the only easy option that helped we was flashing ftf in flashtool.
Make sure that firmware that you download with xperifirm is not unpacked immediatly. (dont tick the checkbox), unpack it later with flashtool and it wont give you errors

I suggest getting tft from xperifirm, and then unpack it with flashtool.
The newest flashtool by androxyde has all of this in one package.

Hey, I recently updated to marshmallow and managed to keep my root, but couldn't install a recovery. I saw I had the xzrecovery app and tried to install a recovery using that. It did it's thing and restarted the device, but it is stuck in bootloop, it keeps flashing the sony xperia logo and keeps trying again. I can't seem to shut down the device. Any help?
Edit: Got it to shutdown.
xzdualrecovery is not ready for marshmallow yet now you have to flash any ftf by flashtool

Yeah, should've done my research. I'm downloading my ftf using xperifirm and I installed flashtool. Any set of instructions I can follow?
