Try reinstalling the Drivers included with Flashtool.. might Fix the Problem
go to flashtool drives and install fastboot drivers
are you flashing the img from fastboot folder?

Don´t forget to unable unknown sources and USB debug.
If don´t work try to change USB connection on your phone from MTP to MSC or vice-versa.

thats when you are using root toolkits, which is not what op is using.

I'm really new for rooting and I found a tutorial on how to root neo v easily and it said to root it after turning off my phone.(the blue led notification).so how to change usb mode?
To get blue LED, switch off your phone, remove any cable. Press and hold the Menu button and insert the cable while holding the Menu button.
I suppose, for Flashtool method, you need the green LED. Do the same while holding the back button.
EDIT: I am sorry, you need the blue LED only

.62 Is not root-able u might need to Downgrade to .42 or Upgrade to .562 (ICS) version if u want to root Easily,,
However .62 is Rootable but Not VIA Flashtool,,,

It depends on what firmware you will put in your mobile. One thing you can do, just go to the search at the top right. search how to root your mobile. it's very easy to search it.
Good luck!

If you are trying to update to .62 via the Sony PC Companion or OTA update using your phone, it will fail as the bootloader is unlocked and there is no update support for those with unlocked bootloader.

Try out different ROMs

Hey buddy, since you've got your phone rooted, why don't you try out some awesome ROMs for your phone? They are quite simple to install and Neo V has quite a few modders . I'm not a big fan of Sony's stock ROM with all their bloatware anyway
Have fun

Noob rooting - Wt19i

Hey guys. Im having trouble rooting my wt19i Live Walkman Android.
Noob question, but i cant find any other place to ask - could someone point me to a useful thread, or a new method
I have attempted the DOOMLORD method, but the zip files always fail (from all 3 locations ive downloaded them from). The Eroot method doesn't pick up my device. And the Flashtool method cant work out the drivers.
Any ideas would be great!
THanks

Both of these were hopeful. it seems i have a problem with my zip tools. but im using 3 different tools (winzip, zip and IZArc)..... All have either 'CRC header" problems or 'CRC failed - File is Broken'.
Any ideas?
Im soo sorry for being the biggest n00b. but none of the other websites point out what this issue is! The FAQ's on these zip tools are not proving anything. FYI, the file it always has a problem with is the runme.bat
Use my pack, just disable antivirus
For what do you need zipping tools? To unpack?
Try downloading the files again and extract them using 7zip (maybe reinstall it) and try it again

No it's not. You should be able to root without unlocking the bootloader
Try installing PC Companion or SUS and Flashtool (drivers) again for the drivers and try all methods like mentioned in my guide, eroot or cydia impactor

Try installing pdanet
Try installing pdanet software on your pc and your phone as well,it will provide you with necessary ADB drivers for your phone :good: and then try to use flashtool. pdanet is basically a thethrng software for android install it to use flashtool.
1. Install .exe file on your windows pc and .apk on your phone.
2. Then Go in the drive where you have installed the flashtool, go to drivers and install x10 mini drivers.
Now flash the kernel Your phone is rooted :laugh: ,
You need to unlock your bootloader first do this.

Root a X10mini in 12.2016

Hello, i got a nice Sony Xperia X10 mini with Android 2.1 update 1 and want to update to any Android 4.4. So i choose the PureSlim R4 for Robyn with the Pure GoogleApps for my phone.
But i cant work with FlashTool 0.9.22.3 i cant root my phone. I got the errormessag: ERROR - Illegal key size or default parameters. With SuperUser and SuperSU both the same result. How to install a new flash then? Do i need an older version of FlashTool? All tutorials are with links for flashtool in GitHub. But this links are broken.
Thanks for every hint to get a newer rom to my phone. USB Debugging is activated of course.

If you are not very experienced with the whole rooting thing then probably your best bet would be to flash the skymelon kernel,it should be the simplest way is to get there as it install's supersu and root's all in one flash,
This is the latest version of twrp and a supersu boot img i have for sony m4 e2303 to get you started.
To download it CLICK HERE
For skymelon follow the instruction's at this page.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/development/kernel-sky-melon-t3532944?nocache=1
You might find some of the following download's will help you out i have found them to be handy to have on my laptop just in case needed.
Download this file to sort out your adb and S1 driver's (it's for window's)
CLICK HERE
Install onto your computer then this program will install all the needed drivers for you hastel free.
For minimal Adb and Fastboot for windows CLICK HERE.
And for the skymelon Kernel CLICK HERE.
You should'nt need much more than that but let me know how you get on.
goodluck :highfive:

Question Need help with unlock the bootloader

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader on android 12 UI 3.0 version C.12 region RU?
Yes, It is possible. Go to developer mode→Oem unlock. Then download app named BugJaegar on your other Android device and connect bot device with eachother with cable and tada you unlock it from that app.
Here's the recommended video guide:

the fact is that my device is not a global version and there is a risk of getting a non-working phone if you use the wrong instructions
Ok. It's fine

Did you have the same os version and RU location? And can you tell me please how did you install magisk?
Integralnik said:

It's not really dubious, it just uses Android and BugJaeger instead of PC and ADB. Thing is you have to install DeepTesting app that allows access to bootloader, and it can only be installed on Android 11. So you have to downgrade to Android 11 first, and there's no rollback package for RU currently.
