my arc recently notice me can update software from mobilephone,but after updating I cannot turn on my arc.
when I switch the turn-on button,the phone will shake and LED light will flash,just like be locked by official.
what's happening?Can someone help me solve this problem?(P.S:my arc have been rooted before)
Is your bl unlocked?
excuse me,what 's the meaning of "bl"??
bl = Bootloader
can you get into flashmode ?
I have used the flashtool to root the official 2.3.2,but still cannot turn on the phone...

What you mean to say..."I have used the flashtool to root the official 2.3.2" when you "but still cannot turn on the phone..."
I'm sorry that I am HongKonger and hard to use english to have a conversation but I will try my best^^
I mean after I cannot turn on the arc, I have used "Flashtool"-a software of rooting,to root my arc be a official android 2.3.2 version. However I still cannot turn on my arc and still cannot work...
hard to read your english, however when your bootloader is not unlocked try the oficial SE ZEUS update program, if you have your bootloader unlocked take a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126358 a lot of people had this with unlocked bootloader to prevent this disable OTA in settings menu

I have more questions after reading this...but I try to answer something.
Flashtool cannot root your ARC at the moment. You can use GingerBreak to root 2.3.2 and not 2.3.3. You can use Flashtool to flash different region firmware (debranding)
If your phone cannot be turned on...how did you manage to root it?

Because flashtool can use despite I cannot turn on my arc.
Do you mean flashtool is not use for root?

No. The FlashTool does not root your phone.
Just flash your phone again.
Use PC Companion to repair or use Update Service to flash it again.
If you must use FlashTool, watch this:

Ups....messed up users.
But if bootloader is OPEN/UNLOCKED. Then use flashtool in development section..
This will do this job fine.
If bootloader is LOCKED/CLOSED, then use official update method..if 1st flash unsucsess...then reflash agent.
Error you getting if drivers or Java is not correctly installed.

I removed all the apps and stuff i did not need or want. I made no ackups of the stock rom or any of the apps. Then today i Hard reset it to find i have no lockscreen i dont here a sound when i recive a call ot text and my camera no longer works also usb is not recognised by the phone, so i can't get to mass storage mode meaning i CAN'T USE SEUS OR PCC!. I then went off today and tried to flash the ICS .ftf and I got errors.

Of course ..
but flashing Unofficial kernel won't let it boot " as I know .. "
I had this problem when I tried to relock my bl and my mobile died for 5 hours cuz It was on unofficial kernel , I wasn't able to unlock it again , and not able to fix by Update service or pc companion ..
until I found that I should have just flashed the official Rom , then I was able to re-unlock the boot loader ..
and play Hack mode and kill my mobile with Cutom Roms again ...
oh okay. Flashing now
i got another error. will post log now.

What did you do prior the issue started? Did you have any modifications? Custom ROM/kernel?
Safest solution - Reinstall phone firmware. Either with Flashtool or with Sony PC Companion. Flashtool guide can be found from my signature, the tutorial one.

it keep restarting
first sony logo is coming then xperia then the home screen and after a few seconds it restart itself doing the same thing again
i tried to flash the stock rom using flashtool but the flashing process stopped at the beginning i think it because the bootloader is locked
plz help me
thank u
note : sorry for my bad english
Wrong. You can still use Flashtool even with a locked bootloader. If you're new to this, I suggest you use the PC Companion to repair your phone since it is easier.

rooting Xperia T is realy easy :
there is no problem if you are on 18.1.A.1.14. it's explained in Google...
if you are on 18.1.a.1.21 :
Flash only the kernel 18.1.a.1.14 with Flashtool.
start the phone and connected it to PC (even if the phone is blocked on "updating apps")
Root the phone with RootKitXperia (last version is 20140719)
shutdown the phone
Flash only the kernel 18.1.a.1.21 with Flashtool.
start the phone
run SuperSu and accept upgrade.
in order to well connect the phone to PC you need to allow debbug USB, and to put the scard in MSC mode
