could you give some more info about what you did?
you say you unlocked bootloader,
did u install xrecovery? did u wipe user settings? did u return to factory default? wich rom did u install after unlocking?
you also should have at least read the next page:
[How-To] Safely test custom kernels / custom ROMs and get back to stock SE 2.3 ROM
after that you might want to try to fix your device by following the [Tutorial] Fix FOTA bricked (unlocked bootloader) Phones
after you have tried those steps let me know if it worked for you

It's never easy to really brick an arc than a galaxy tablet, had the mainboard replaced. flashtool really a very good tool to revive an arc.
Calm down then try this 1 by 1

Hi, Janto
For me, just flashing a custom rom it can't block u getting into cwm. It may stuck with the Kernel's logo/bootAnimation but should passes the CWM notification first.
If you could provide info(Name & version) of your kernel & rom, it would be better for us to help you bring your expensive device back to life:fingers-crossed:
My suggestion is:
1. Use Fastboot to flash a good kernel (Anyone from the development section), then CWM, thought you know how to do a flash again
2. If above step not works, download flashtool (The top thread in the development section) and a complete tft files, then do a flash using the flashtool, this should give you a brand new phone.
BTW: you r BL or not? search for X-parts if u r still locked.
Hello Guys
I saw this custom rom ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599906
so my question is if I installed this ICS custom rom
and I didn't like it can I back to the original firmware via flashtool ?
and does this custom room needs unlocked bootloader .
Thanks
If its an ICS you will need a kernel, so you will need an unlocked boot loader to flash the kernel, every time you see this rom requires this kernel, you will need an unlocked bootloader

Just use flashtool to flash the rom again man, i think u should flash the stock rom firs
If it's ok, then flash your custom rom
I am running the official rom no problem it's not allowing me to flash any custom roms in the recovery mod. I cam reboot to recovery either by x-part or holding the menu key while it start.:crying:

You unlock your boot loader with the test point, not root. So please be clear about what you've actually done.

If you want to use a custom ROM then 9 times out of 10 you'll need to use a specific kernel, usually one that comes with CWM.
I know exactly how to flash custom rom, I am coming from MT4G the problem after you flash the rom the phone dosn't boot in recovery it just stay at sony logo, even when i try to boot in fastboot mod dosn't allow me only booting in recovery.

Try this....
1. Flash ur stock ICS firmware 4.1.B.431 ... 2. Don't let it upgrade to the latest firmware (in Canada I got N update that changed my firmware to 4.1.**.587 or something like that)
3. Then flash ur phone with the rootable firmware of xperia generic world version...
4. Flash the kernels for that firmware .. even the stock ICS would be OK..
5. Root the phone using Doomlords method of rooting... Its the best...!
6. At last reboot ur phone ..n violaaa...
U have a completely rooted phone ..!
P.s. make sure u see the log while u root ur phone . It may say rooted successly even if it had some errors... so make sure other are no errors..!
I had the same problem when I decided to unlock boot loader n root it for the first time ... so no worries my friend ...try this .. n it will work for sure.. !

cheers..!!
did u hit the thanks button yet.?? :laugh::good:
I think you can't flash custom rom from flash tool it must be flashed from you sd card because it is a zip file. I tried to flash recovery mode you supplied the link with no go.
So u did root and installed cwm by the link I gave right ?
N it showed that .. installation complete.. ?
N now ..the problem is ..
that u cannot enter recovery mode
To flash a custom ROM ?
Am I right ?

Fastboot is for flashing kernel. You need unlocked bootloader for this process.
Flashmode is for flashing the stock rom.
If you had bootloop just flashing the stock rom again.

but after restarting the device after the flash, it vibrates once and then does nothing. I don't even see the SONY logo. The screen doesn't light up at all.
I was able to fix this by flashing the stock ROM from flashtool.
But did I do something wrong? Is there anyway which I can get the ROM working?
did it say flash successful?

Have you unlocked your bootloader first? If you have then try flashing the kernel from the rom seperately using fastboot. By the way are any other roms with custom kernels working or are they all giving same errors? By the way did you face any error while flashing?

Can you describe how exactly is it "Dead'? Is it not booting or even responding to hard reset (Pressing Vol Up + Power Buttons for 10-15 secs)? Are you able to get fastboot or adb access to your phone?

Xperia S and SL are same hardware, so what ever works on Xperia S works on Xperia SL, and given that there is Nougat ROM available, I wouldn't say that it is stuck. You should ask the developer of the Carbon ROM if You can upload a modified one.
