I used factory reset and locking and relocking the bootloader but nothing helps.
So..is there any way for me to downgrade?

How do I flash a 4.1.2 rom that requires 12.0.A.2.254 ?
I'm kind of a begginer with the flashing and everything.

wat exactly you want to know? the software to flash? or ROM's supported?
If software than you can use flashtool to flash your stuff and if supported ROM's than i'll suggest you to go for ExistenZ ROM v1 which is based on 12.0.A.2.254, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2478019

did you already search for a solution for your Problem on XDA and google? sorry for being a prick, but I would guess you haven't...
It seems thet you can still get into flashmode. try to flash a stock kernel via fastboot flash boot boot.img. find the advanced stock kernel that fits your ROM in the Advanced stock kernel thread in original android development.
also try flashing a rom with fastboot mode.

Have you tried using the official Sony 'EMMA' restore service for unlocked bootloaders?
Worth a try.

I'm from brazil but i downgraded mine to .254 using a central european firmware and then upgraded again to .201 through pc companion. Now i wanted to flash this brazilian one to see if it solves a network issue that's been happening.
Bootloader locked.
used to have root access on .254
any suggestions?
Thanks!!

Flashtool works with your .254. Its only the .201 that is coming up with "verifaction issues".
Could be "download" issue. Re-download the ftf and try again.

Yes, follow the instructions in the thread I pointed out to you. You will not be able to boot system as you have a custom kernel with a stock system.
The next instruction I gave in that thread was to boot to recovery and flash the update.zip. Do that to install the correct system for that kernel.
Also, when you unlocked the bootloader there was no need to root the phone, just install the custom kernel and a custom rom was enough..

Put it on your external SD card using a cardreader
if you cannot do that, flash a stock FTF using flashtool and then put it on your sdcard and then flash the boot.img again

That's not an error, you are doing it wrong.
Leave the phone turned off and disconnected
Select the FTF file to flash and only connect in flashmode when prompted to do so

You need to flash a full FTF, look in the mega collection thread for one
The one you flashed does not have a system on it, hence you cannot boot into the system

That should work. Try a different FTF file. Anyone will do as long as its for your device. (C6902 I presume)
Any of these three should work

FTF files cannot be prerooted.
What we are trying to do is get the update.zip onto your sdcard. If you do not have a card reader then we need to get you to boot into the system first so you can transfer it via USB cable.
Please flash a full FTF and boot into the system

[Q] Flashtool can't flash boot-delivery.xml

There is one module in all stock firmwares, named "boot-delivery.xml".
When I try to flash FW with this module - flashtool bringing me an error. Log will be down below.
If I will exclude this file, FW will flash normally, without any errors.
Flashtool gathering info from the phone when flashing boot-delivery.xml. There it is.
Code:
Phone boot version : S1_Boot_Lagan_1.0_2
Also, flashtool is checking boot version of the .xml file, I assume. There it is for the file.
Code:
Boot delivery version : S1_Boot_Lagan_1.1.1_1
So, the question is: Can I update phone boot to version 1.1.1_1 from 1.0_2?
It is needed to flash the whole firmware, without excluding any files.
There is flashtool log:

Thanks, and sorry for my weird English =3

Are you using the latest version of Flashtool? Flashing of the boot bundle is only possible in newer versions (0.9.13 and newer), I believe.
If you are, then I have no idea. You could ask in the Flashtool thread.
Also, your English is just fine.

I'm using Flashtool 0.9.18.2
Every launch flashtool is checking for updates, with no errors.

You should ask in the Flashtool thread then. Androxyde does respond to questions in there.

Still have't found the answer. Don't know what to do.

Tried updating Flashtool?
Try using a different FTF or creating your own with Flashtool. Guide here.
Sent from my C6603

Flashtool's latest version. Tried to create FTF files. First time, dowloaded by XperiFirm, second - by Flashtool. Didn't helped. I see that the problem is in the boot-delivery.xml, which expects newer version of "Boot Lagan", whatever it is. And I see that without flashing boot-delivery.xml, Flashtool isn't updating that boot_lagan.

I don't know what to suggest then. Try a different USB cable/port or even a different PC.
I've flashed FTFs to my device many times with Flashtool and never encountered that error. It's very strange.
Edit - Also, what device do you have? It's odd that it says it's unknown in the Flashtool logs.

By the way, I have another C6603. Flashtool flashing it wothout any problems. Two C6603's...
But on second phone boot lagan ver is 1.1.1.1, which is needed to the boot-delivery.

Okay, flashed .230 firmware, wanted PCC to update FW to .283. Nope. I'm still having newest firmware... What the...

Just exclude "bootbundle" from flashing. When you choosing files to flash, there is some checkboxes. Find "BOOTBUNDLE", and choose it.
This way phone is flashing normally.

Hello.
I have the same problem ... someone to fix it ???

Looks like the only way - is to exclude bootbundle from flashing.
Nothing bad happens.
