well I know...there is no answer over the google either...no one has this kind of problem
I will keep searching
Have you tried to directly flash a .kdz file? That should help, as your device came with 10a it should be a normal one and no developer.

I havent tried it yet...I will today when I come home...
I was researching a little...
how can I be sure that phone is not developer edition?
I got that phone for free from a cousine working in local lg office... he was saying that it's the final version...
there is a encription on the back of the model NOT FOR SALE...so that means it a developer edition, or not?
ofcourse, software is version v10a....
maybe it's not registred for sale so it wont update?
I found some tutorial, does someone know will that help and could I brick it this way? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861942

If you'll try the normal flash, you'll brick it almost for sure.
By that method you'll be able to flash it.
Pay attention to the tutorial before you start!

I did everything as in the tutorial...but I stopped at step 8...
I am using win 7, 64 bit edition and I connected to my laptop win xp 32 bit edition, I manage to install everything, but when I connect phone (vol up and usb cable) the computer never finds omap4430...when I look at device manager i get a new hardware for about 3 seconds and then everything dissapears...
I don't undestrand...
does it maybe has to be win 7 and 32 bit operational system or something else...
tnx anyway

I got the same Message when I tried to check for updates. On my phone the solution was to enable OTA in the hidden menu.
Hidden Menu
WLAN Test
OTA Setting
Enable
Restart phone

As far as I know, the flash method for developers phones must run in 32bit system.
About retail phones, just try to download the KDZ version you want to and flash it with the normal methode.
Good luck

Maybe even without sucess, when you flash by the "development way" (let's call it like that for now...), you overwrite the file system allowing to perform the normal flash after that.
Good for you.

noob question about rooting

hi. I read somewhere here about rooting using doomlord's method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2440375). my questions are:
1. will this method work for stock Xperia SP? Literally just out of the box, everything stock. running JB 4.1.2 v.254.
2. what are the chances of bricking my phone? i really want to root mine because i want custom ROMs on it but im really nervous because its my only phone, and this will be the first time ill do it.
thanks in advance. appreciate all your replies
1.-Yes, thats the method for .254: You need to flash .257 kernel first.
2.-Sony phones can't get "bricked"...99% of the times they only get a boot loop, which means your SP wont get past the Sony-Xperia logo. In this scenario you need to repair via Flashtool or Update Service. Flashtool is more effective for "bricked" phones.

I have done it 8 times, with no problems at all. At first one I have only offline charging bug, but when I repair software with PC Companion, than make root with this method again that solve the problem with offline charging.
But only root? When U first read than do - its unable to brick your phone.

First of all connect your phone in flashtool, select Devices -> Chek Drivers and check if you have ABD driver installed.
Have you enable USB Debugging? Phone have to be also connected in MSC mode.
And at last. Have you turn off Flashtool before running script??
So on. More questions ask better in "ROOTing" thread. Or at first read this thread from start to the end before aksing quiestions. Theres a lot of answers.
