Driver Issue Flash Mode - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
Have a bit of a major problem with my Xperia SP right now and I am hoping someone can help. I originally was on Windows 8.1 and had some major issues with the system, among one of these when I tried to install Flashtool drivers from the included file, I had to go through all the resetting and reinstalling to get driver enforcement off however when the drivers installed I connected my device and it was fine.
Then I tried to put the phone in Flash Mode and everything was going downhill, basically I connected my phone as I had done a thousand times previously on windows 7 and the phone would go green for about 3 seconds then red light and go into charging mode. If this was done when requested from flashtool it would detect it was connected but I get an error with loader.sin as below....

02/049/2014 03:49:50 - INFO - You can now unplug and restart your phone
Now in normal circumstances this means your bootloader cannot be unlocked right? However my bootloader is unlocked.... and confirmed by service menu and also I have been using unlocked bootloader ROM's....
So anyway I eventually had enough of Windows 8 and went back to Windows 7 (separate partitions are a beautiful thing ) and tried again.... same process same result. The best bit is on both systems I cannot forcefully uninstall any phone drivers because i just get an endless loop of failures unless I do it before connecting the phone once to the computer. The way the phone reacts in flashtool is as if the phone is permentantly in Flash Mode however its not and still stays the same way until I reboot my computer.
I have tried factory resetting the phone, I have tried uninstalling drivers and reinstalling but nothing is working. I even tried a different cable just in case and nothing. This only affects flash mode or the entire phone once flash mode has been activated once and then it affects the entire system and wont allow me to restart normally without pressing the reset button on my case even if the phone isn't connected and I also cannot do anything with the drivers anymore at this point.
I am actually trying to relock my bootloader and go back to stock as I will be selling the phone later this week. I flashed a cut down stock ROM from XDA using recovery but now its flashed I no longer have recovery either since it was stock and I have no root privileges now xD
Ideally what I am aiming for is to relock bootloader through flashmode, then use sony tool to reinstall full official firmware. This issue also happens with Sony tool by the way.
Any Suggestions greatly appreciated!!!!

Also tried to reinstall all drivers and Sony tool as well, MTP driver installation failed but all others went ahead and I got this on Flashtool

Would you like to use a Linux version of Flashtool? I will guide you from the very Live USB booting, UDEV implementation, and lastly the flashing process
Though please note I am quite busy, so my replies will be quite slow.

There is a "Common drivers for Viskan board" in the drivers installer. I suggest for you to tick that.

It worked. I saw a lot of threads and nobody says to install this driver.
I don't understand why they didn't write to install this driver

Well I don't know either. But I managed to install it anyway. Been doing that since I was first tried to flash a downgrade on this device.
I notice that the installer said "Xperia SP" in the Viskan board details so since then I always tick it and recommending people to install it as well. Glad it worked out for you!

[Q] Why can't my Sony Xperia Z1 can't enter flashmode properly?

Hello everyone!
My C6903 (rooted, unlocked bootloader, cwm working, drivers properly installed on computer) is currently on a bootloop. It works in fastboot but it can't enter flashmode properly. During this process the led lighting on my device is not on green light its just dead but in fastboot its blue all the time. it show this log

after that my phone would just boot up and get stuck on a bootloop again.
Additional question. In flashtool there are 2 options when we hit the lightning button, the flashmode and the fastboot mode. Can i use the fastboot to flash the ftf file? If yes what are the safe steps?
Help please! Thanks!
Give more infor.
What did you do before this happend, what you wanted to do.
Check your usb cable to see if you have a loose pin.that can cause the device to get disconnected(from experience),just try to push in the usb cable when flashing
Fixed
I have fixed it guys! Thank you all!
I flashed cyanogenmod and then connected my device while its on, running flashtool. just choose your device on the options that pops up. and just wait.
INFO - Running installftkit as root thru sysrun
I was stuck on the log above for several minutes and i just disconnected my device.
i run flashtool again but first I clicked the lightning button then flashmode.
Choose your ftf file then flash it.
wait for the prompt from flashtool to connect your device.
connect your device (it should be off) while holding the volume down
the process should start smoothly now.

I recently rooted and flashed my compact. I also have Windows 8.1, and for the life of me, I couldn't get my files to flash using Windows 8.1. As soon as I switched to a different laptop using Windows 7, I had absolutely no problems.

Yeah, even after I disabled digital signature, I still couldn't get Flashtool to work properly on Windows 8.1.
I was still forced to use Windows 7.
Best of luck.
I'm facing "similar" issue while flashing latest stock Lollipop firmware for India.
I've reported an issue on Flashool github repo.
More details here: https://github.com/Androxyde/Flashtool/issues/22
Let's see.

Xperia SP Bricked?- won't turn on at all

Hi All,
My Sony Xperia SP was slow, so decided to root it using KingoROOT, which worked fine. Then I followed various tutorials from different sources to try and get CyanogenMod installed.
I followed every step, wiped the phone's original Operating System, and put the CM11 Huashan zip file in the SD card, but now it won't turn on at all. I have tried unsuccessfully various times this week, and have almost given up.
When I power on, I get a brief green light, then nothing. Not even the Sony logo- just blank screen.
I’m a newbie so don't know what happened exactly- maybe I didn't unlock Bootloader?
I'm not sure what went wrong, so links to the tutorials I used are below, (give you an idea of what might have happened):
I followed a YouTube video called Tutorial How to install CyanogenMod 11 M/Nightly build on Xperia SP, and various other tutorials, but except my phone didn't start
Anyone that can fix this is a genius, because I've tried so many times...
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

I Failed Flashing ROM with FlashTool

Hi all i tried to flash my XZ2 with flashtool and i downloaded the latest ROM from Xperifirm. I created FTF file from the ROM i downloaded by unchecking .TA files. I have unlocked bootloader with cmd (which means all the drivers must be installed properly). But it didnt show neither errors nor succeeding in flashing the ROM. When i exited flash boot mode, my phone still can be turned on normally.
In before, i softbricked my phone but managed to reflash it with EMMA, but not satisfied because it's android 8. Anyone please help me, what steps i missed here? Im super noob in this kind of stuff, so please explain it easily for me. Thank u!

I have solved the problem. So i need to install the driver from C:\Flashtool\drivers, ticked the flash boot and fast boot, include .TA files in the FTF file, and not plugging my phone in USB 3.0 slot. Hope this would be useful for anyone having the same problem as mine.
