HI. I wanted to flash new firmware. But when using flashtool I cant get into download mode. PC freezes when pushing volume down button. There is info that found new device - SEMC Flash device but win doesnt install any driver and I have to restart PC. Simillar with using SUS. When SUS asks for plug phone with volume down button there is pop up window with SEMC flash device and PC doesnt respond. Any help? Windows xp sp3
My w7 pc didn't freeze, but my XT didn't turn into flash mode. I resolved pushing the on /off button with volume - still pushed after inserting the usb cable.

could I have lost this after a failed attempt at getting into flashmode? And how to get it back? PCC or flashtool doesn't see the phone. USB charge works in MSC mode but still PCC and flashtool cannot see the phone. I've hit the little red button but no change. So I can't see away of flashing or updating via PCC until this is resolved.

Try going into flashmode this way.
Hold volume down button, attach usb cable, keep volume down button pressed and then press and hold the power button until something happens (LED blink or vibrate) then let go of all buttons.
I had to do that on my Xperia T because getting into flashmode the normal way didn't work

Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't appear to make any difference but something I realised is that I might have been holding the volume - fir too long. Also the green LED indicating flashmode doesn't stay on just flashes briefly. Still I was able to get PCC to see the flashmode and 'repair' it but it has made no difference. In USB mode MTP the battery is not charging hen connected to a PC and is when connected in MSC mode. I realise it is not hugely important but it would be nice to have it working the way it as two days ago PCC doesn't recognise the phone nor Media Go; maybe it is pc driver issue though I have uninstalled and reinstalled the pcc software.
Install flashtool and run the drivers.exe from the driver folder in the instalation folder of flashtool. Choose flashmode and fastboot drivers

Thanks, tried this and it didn't make any difference. I have same software installed at work and all works no problem so the setup on my home laptop is obviously not quite right so will do a complete wipe as best I can of software and try again.
I recently flashed DooMKernel for my Xperia SP via fastboot. After that, I flashed the kernel (only kernel) of the stock 12.0.A.2.254 via flashmode. However, after that, both fastboot and flashmode are not working on my device. When I hold either the volume up/down button when I plug my phone into my computer, the notification light turns blue/green for a while before turning red for a while and booting normally. I have already installed the fastboot and flashmode drivers successfully and I recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 x64. What can I do to fix this?

The funny thing is that it actually does turn blue/green. That goes to show that it's working, it's just that after a certain time of being in that mode, if there are no detectable data transfers, it will restart.
Also, have you disabled driver signature verification and test signing on Windows 8?
This message was sent so that I'm slightly more useful
As CallMeVentus said it works but then reboots. If you're using flashtool you can first select the firmware to flash and when you start it will ask for you to plug your phone in flashmode. Do it and it should directly copy the files, so your phone will stay in the right mode.

CallMeVentus, I have already disabled driver signature enforcement in Windows 8.1 and have reinstalled the flashtool drivers three to four times already. When I plug the phone in fastboot or flashmode, Windows tells me "USB device not recognized". However, when I plug it in as MTP, it detects the device normally. I have used many different USB cables and the problem still persists. Does it have anything to do with my recent upgrade to Windows 8.1?

Are you sure that your battery is charged?
Try this: press and hold power and volume up button for 10 seconds and see does the phone vibrate.If vibrate flash again via flashtool.,he should works.

Battery was fully charged and I've tried that but phone does not response at all to flashtool. When plug in to PC, in device manager under USB controllers, it sees it as SOMC Flash Drive. I think the phone boot is dead.

Thanks for your help...The phone was flashed successfully with flash tool with flash file E6553_28.0.A.4.8. After flash done, phone was dead, cannot power on anymore. Now when I tried to flash it again, volume down, insert USB the flashtool show as: Device detected with USB debugging off. It doesn't go to flash mode anymore. I took the back cover off, remove battery connector flex cable and connect it back and try flashing many times but flashtool will not detect phone in flash mode..PC can detect phone because it makes connecting sound on PC but detects as what mode I don't know. In device manager, it doesn't show any device in com port but it shows SOMC Flash Device in USB controllers. I tried to press volume up + power but nothing happened. Once again thanks for your help.

As I understood, you tried to downgrade. Am I right? I heard that sometimes downgrading causes hard brick. I don't know how to fix it but only option is bringing service.

Hi,
I wanted to flash stock lollipop ROM on my QMobile Android one for some reason using sp flash tool but it's not working for me.
When I click the download button and then pull off the battery of my phone then connect the USB cable with PC and put the battery back in, it doesn't start downloading,,,I have both drivers installed in my PC (sp flash tool drivers) and (Google use drivers).
Can you guys tell me how to get this problem solved.. As far as I'm concerned the phone is not getting into download mode and I think that's the reading why it's not starts the flashing process...
Thanks in advance for helping..
Do in this way; 1) Disconnect usb cable from the phone end while other end remain connected to PC
2) pull off battery from the phone for atleast 20 seconds.
3) Switch on download software mode through sp flash tool
4) Insert battery in phone and then connect usb cable to phone. Also press volume up or volume down button of your mobile so that it is detected by PC
Hopefully it will work
Thanks for the reply but I have figured out the problem..
The issue is caused by incorrect drivers Mediatek preloader vcom drivers are missing from my system so I installed those drivers and it starts downloading immediately....:good:
