(Q) Having flash issues (doesnt go into flashboot) - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My Z is running on stock .350, rooted and running XZDualrecovery and locked bootloader. I'm trying to flash the new .235 firmware but I have no luck at all using whatever methods. When I use flashtool, an error appears like this:
22/027/2013 15:27:22 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode

22/027/2013 15:27:22 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted
22/027/2013 15:27:23 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode
When I use PC companion, to the step when it told me to power off the phone and holding the volume down key while reconnecting to the PC, nothing happen when I did as it told me to.
Also I notice when I dont run any program at all, and then power off my phone and holding the volume down key while reconnecting, there is a sound on my PC that notify a connecting device, but doesnt show anything at all (window 8). And the led of the phone started with red and blinked into green then disappear completely after just half a second. I dont know what happen, it seems like my phone cant go to flashboot mode. Please help me, I just want to upgrade to a newer firmware with root access and nothing else. Thanks

Have you got the correct drivers installed, have you followed the correct way in @shadowboy23 tutorial also there is a link in my sig on how to (shadows way is thought windows, mine is through dos)
Also try another ftf file maybe a bad creator/download
Edit: Please don't panic post, just read there is a lot of advise out there. Your not the first person to have problems and won't be the last but we all try to help each other

repair phone with SEUS http://sony-ericsson-update-service.en.uptodown.com/
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
when getting sony ericsson logo try pressing back button a few times so you will get into Xrecovery/CWM mode. from there you can flash any ROM you want with the condition of having it on your SD card.

I used PCC. It worked for me. I didnt need SEUS.
Prefer PCC

SEUS is da best.

You want to flash the baseband on LOCKED boot loader?
That will never work.
Since it seems your boot loader is still locked you only need to flash the Stock ROM.
EDIT: By the way, that's also the root of your problem.
MiniCM7 requires you to...
- Unlock the boot loader (ONLY if your phone is SAFE for doing so!!!)
- Flash nAa's kernel
- Flash MiniCM7
But then, why the hell do I repeat again what's actually written in the OP post of MiniCM7 and you failed to read?

Why are you trying to flash x10 kernel on x8?
ouch, damn, I did not notice that.
That is Very Good ....
Is there anything to do with that?
You must install on your pc Gordon's gate flash driver and after reebot your pc.Then pcc and flashtool will recognize it.
nope Gordon's gate flash driver do not work either.
Everything was working fine, until I accidently flashed X10 kernel.
Now, It not even react when I connect phone to PC.
I am worried that X10 kernel had sets some higger voltages , or something else what ruined some hardware.
does the phone not turn on or it just stays at se logo? If the phone wont turn on you have a dead boot and this must be repaired using Jtag.

nope. i have flashed X10 kernels sometimes.. it does nothing. a simple reflash works. if it does not detect them i reboot pc or reinstall drivers
Phone do not turn on.
I tried restarting PC, and reinstaling drivers, but I think that shoud not be problem, when I worked before.

I just get my phone X8 from repair service, where they repair it with JTAG and load new original ROM (Firmware).
And If I indentify phone in S1Tool I get NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK certificate.
But before repair SIMLOCK was recognized. And manufactured date on phone is 11W11.
Can I proceed with Bootunlock ? Or is there anything to do to get again simlock certificate recognized?
There is a screen from S1Tool

Help! Xperia TL wont boot....

Hey guys..ive just started messing around with new roms. I installed an xperia t rom (.140) on my tl, which was working fine. I then flashed CM 10.1, hit reboot in CWM, and now my phone wont turn on. When i press the power button it vibrates and the green LED flashes one quick flash, but thats it. Ive tried holding power and volume down key and it does the same thing. I plugged it into my pc and the pc doesn't find the phone. On the phone however, the green led light is on, a constant glow. Its not fully charged, probably around 60%. How can i fix this?! i can't get the phone to boot at all...i do ahve CWM backup but i cant get into recovery...help please???
Also, i just found that if i hold the power button and the volume up button the phone vibrates ones, pauses, then vibrates three times. Could this mean anything?
It means you have not read the op for cm roms.
Just repair your phone using pc companion and then if your want to install a custom Rom with a non stock kernel you must unlock your boot loader first

you have to install the proper drivers...
if you are on Windows 8, it's a bit time-consuming, if not, that's easy...
BTW, if you come to the conclusion that you can't repair via PCC, then flash a stock ROM via Flashtools, that easier and the drivers can be found in the folder which you install Flashtools (mainly C:/flashtools)
download a stock ROM (the latest one) FTF, flash via Flashtools, and everything will be ok
BTW, you don't need to unlock bootloader since it's an official Sony firmware
wish you luck

flash a stock kernel or a stock FTF using flashtool
1) Do the power and volume up trick until it vibrates 3 times
2) Use flash tool and attach in flashmode (Make sure you have drivers installed)

Goto the installation folder of flashtool and look in the driver folder
run driver.exe
tick the options for TX, flashmode and fastboot
also, try connecting the phone to flashtool before selecting the ftf to flash, then disconnect, select the ftf and connect when prompted.
post the output from flashtool here again

Make sure you have done the power and volume + button until it has vibrated 3 times

I think you're not flashing the correct file, and that's why you are getting that error message in Flashtool:
Go to this thread and download a C6943 14.3.A.0.757 firmware and flash it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2469191
Honestly, I don't think it has anything to do with the software, since the phone doesn't even boot into OS. But you can always try flashing the firmware first. If it still doesn't work, you'll have to send it back to the store.

Maybe this one will do the job ...

[Q] Hard bricked?

Hi,
I had unlocked my bootloader a few months ago to root the phone. I had taken a backup of the TA partition.
Today I locked my bootloader, and restored the backup of the TA partition I had made.
It doesn't turn on anymore. When I plug it in to charge, the led keeps flashing red.
When I plug it into my computer, its detected in flashmode. Sony PC Companian recognizances the phone.
I have tried flashing the stock Sony ROM using the Flashtool, but i always get an error.

Have I hard bricked my phone?
My battery was 100% charged when restored the TA partition.
Thanks for any help.

I think so, it said the flash was successful. How can I check?
Did you have a original kernel on your phone then you locked the bootloader?

dial *#*#7378423#*#* on phone. service menu will open. go to service tests and scroll down to security.
there you will see 9 keys with key OK active written in bracket. if all keys are ok n active then relocking was successful otherwise not.
Also these keys are unique to each phone so you cant get those anywhere.

Yes I have. But I get errors:

Make sure the drivers are installed correctly and working.
Check the device manager so that you dont have the yellow exclamation mark on it.
If all is ok there, maybe the phone dont start into flashmode correctly.
Have tried to hold volume down while connecting the usb?

Check if the bootloader is actually locked; press the bootloader button in Flashtool, it'll say unlock if it's currently locked (as you know). Either way, try flashing just the kernel: a .img through fastboot if bootloader is still unlocked, or a kernel FTF from the forum if it's locked. Make sure the cable has no loose contact - unlikely that this is the culprit, but it doesn't hurt to be sure. From what I understand, messing up the TA partition would render your phone completely unbootable, fastboot/flashmode included, so it doesn't look like that's the case. However, this is the first time I'm seeing a device "not recognize" a command so...
To summarize: probably not hard-bricked, but no idea if it's fixable. Be prepared to visit the service center. This is all I could think of. Good luck.

So I took my phone to the Sony Service Center. They say that they'll fix it within 10 days, and the estimated cost is RS. 0; but they'll give me exact details tomorrow.
So how did it go, did they fix your phone free of charge?

Ok. I think it is advised on Flashtool page on xda that for all Z series phone, we should use version 9.13 because of some bootbundle files in the firmware. u can give it a try or buy new z2 or z3

It still doesn't work.
It gives the same errors.
Hello, can you fix your problem? Well, I have the same problem with my xperia ZR but I could flash my device by removing the battery then keeping pressing the "volume down" (until the end of the process) and connecting the USB, try and tell me how it went.
