Have you unlocked your boot loader?
If so you just needed to flash the .zip in recovery.

My phone won't reboot after flashing a .tft file

Hello guys
First of all I wanna tell that I am a newbie
Let's start with the begining:
I have unlocked my bootloader yesterday , and I have installed CMW - using tutorials founded on google. my phone it's not rooted
the firmware version (android 4.3) that was intalled after I've unlocked the bootloader has an issue, it doesn't work the wi-fi
So I decided to update the version to the last available on Sony, but it won't let me update it because my phone has the bootloader unlocked
After that I tried to relock my bootloader using a tutorial founded on google
The problem is that after flashing Xperia_SP_Relock_Bootloader.tft file in Flashboot program, the phone didn't reboot automaticaly . So I tried to reboot it myself with the "Boot into system device" option. The phone was disconnected but it won't rebooted. I also tried to turn it on but no way.
Here is the entire log from Flashboot :

This should help you

And oh it's clearly written there that you should not use ftf to relock your bootloader :-o.
Just follow the instructions there.

Try to flash kernel using command prompt(Minimal adb and fastboot software is recomennded)

I'm sure that saved your phone as flashing a custom kernel without unlocking the bootloader will brick your device. Please read a bit, backup your TA-Partition and unlock your bootloader if you want to flash any custom kernel or aosp based rom.

Porblems Unlocking Bootloader

So I have unlocked my bootloader with the Flashtool
At least thats what Flashtool tells me, everytime I am trying to flash the Recovery i am getting an error, all instructions tell me to use "boot.img" but i am always pointed to some DooMxxxxxxxx.img I tried renaming that one to boot.img biut no luck. (am I just using the wrong image?)
Also when trying to use Sonys Method (command line) to unlock the bootloader(after relocking with Flashtool) I get an error message:
Code:

FAILED (remote: Command did not succeed)

Xperia SP- Bricked After Trying To Flash CM12.1?

Did I brick it?
So my sweet old SP seems kinda in between the kinds of bricks I find on this forum, so before giving elaborate background stories, this is the condition my phone is in after attempting to flash CM12.1 (first time doing such things which was probably what went wrong):
Without power cable, turning device on gives one short buzz, volume up + power button the same and a blue flash volume down a green flash. Thats all they do, black screen and no signs of life afterwards.
Now with power cable connected to my PC and powering up while holding one of the volume buttons it is recognised on the PC (unknown device in the device manager). I downloaded FlashTool, which whined about drivers but those couldn't install for some reason, so I unpacked the installer and manually installed what I thought were the correct drivers.
Now FlashTool sees the device connected in FlashMode (curiously disconects and reconnects every minute) or Fast Bootmode (whatever those mean, I'm a noob and yeah I hate myself) but I cant actually flash anything.
Is there hope? Or did I screw up?
Thank you very much for even reading my pathetic plea.

Have you tried using PC Companion to restore your phone? Maybe your phone doesn't have enough charge, that might be what's preventing Flashtool from working properly.

I'll try it, but when I started flashing I had 100% and last time I (could) check it was still around 90%.
UPDATE: Charging makes green led burn, also I find it strange that PC companion didn't recognise the phone as being a phone either
