Fastboot mode is blue!
To enter fastboot mode press Volume up and plug in usb cable while the device is safely powered down (wait about 20 seconds after power it down).

If you are on new Windows version, you need to disable signature enforcement by pressing shift and restart tab which on top left windows icon and power icon continuously when pc restarted.
You'll see numbered features and press the disable signature enforcement and wait for pc to open.
After that, open flashtool which could download from xda and press install drivers from drivers tab on flashtool.
Choose the fastboot, flashtool and Sony Xperia Z5 Compact drivers and press install. Then your pc could know your sony.

Off-Topic: I'm searching for the flashtool-0.9.32.0-linux (or before), because the current flashtool-0.9.33.0-linux needs a libc.so.6 in version 2.3.2 that my Xubuntu 20.04. not offers. I'm on 2.3.1...

They publish their files also via torrent.
I have found this magnet link, which s working ( I downloaded the file )
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:4d683cf7674ac1da8401e5293735f0fec9acf3c6&dn=flashtool-0.9.32.0-linux.tar.xz
I've found the site using the query "exact name of the file" + "torrent" on duckduckgo, you can also find version 9.31.

Yes, I know. But until now I haven't found any older version.
Today I've been successful! But I had to go back to "flashtool-0.9.29.0-linux.tar.xz", because for every newer version my libc.so.6 is too old.

Then something is wrong with your device. But I'm just guessing...
