It's not working hanging in the start up the black windows !!
Have you unlocked your bootloader? You should go to wontanserver.com and restore your stock rom. Its free and just have to register an email address and download their client software.

Hi guys
Wondering if any of you can help me
I have recently bricked my R800I from installing rooted firmware then the system ran an update since will not boot, I can't access fastboot as no blue light will show up only green as it is charging.
Phone only vibrates when the power button is pressed and SE pc companion will not fix the phone as it states the software is 'modified'
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated
This is the method I used and it worked perfectly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090
Flash the firmware back to 2.3.2 with Flash Tool, root it and then do an OTA update. I'm running R800i 2.3.3 rooted with zero problems.
Edit: Updating the firmware with PC Companion is bad news if you're rooted. Stick to the OTA method. I've just removed PC Companion altogether so I don't update accidentally.
No good after flashing it, it still will not boot even though i get..

Dousan....Your my hero :')
hello guys pls help me , before flashing i forgot to check usb debugging and my connectivity was in MTP , when flashing it said please check usb debbuging , and u was in MTP mode bla bla , i dnt remmber what it said .. and i plug off usb cable and my xperia play bricked T.T..
As fas as I know - you dont have to be in Mass storage mode, or have USB debugging on - to flash firmwares.
You simply use flashtool, push ftf file you want to it with phone connectet via USB (care which mode or debugging on/off), and do as you are told -> let flashtool prepare, phone off, cable off, hit and hold back button on play, and plug in usb cable... flashing of the ftf should then start and work.
Get a Stock Rom version (they are on xda just search) and flash again, your phone should work fine again
realy , hmm so why my play bricked after flashing , oh get a stock rom , you mean 2.3.4 , im at 2.3.3 when i flashing , can i just flast to 2.3.4 to fix my bricked play ? sory my english is very bad
Nono ...
Can't really tell you why your phone "bricked" (it is not really bricked) maybe you chose a wrong firmware... when you have r800x, go with r800x firmware, if you have r800i, use that firmware
Stock rom is available in 2.3.4 : 2.3.3 : 2.3.2 ..... you choose, what you want.

I msged you. The drivers are in your flashtool folder and then go to ... drivers
sashake it said i need driver , what driver bro? what does it mean?

Go into the flashtool folder and open up the drivers folder and install what is there. That's all I know.

Please help! Disconnect phone and try again?
Try this UK firmware: Baseband 64
https://rapidshare.com/files/698194045/R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1253-4437_.ftf
Works for me all the time! No errors and a good firmware
Also are you sure it's unlocked as in bootloader unlocked and not just rooted?
Go to the directory of flashtool and in drivers make sure Flashtool-drivers.exe is installed fully
Good luck
Bootloader is unlocked via Official SE page.
Finally managed to flash Enchanced .58 v2, but im trying to get back to stock .42 UK Generic.
When i try to load .ftf in flashtool, clicking at file in flashmode window. There are no files shown up at right side, drag&drop gives message : Flashing Aborted
Do u get any kinda error ...or it just freezes....???
try checking the notification light...if its still on or it goes off...
And have u tried any other firmware...?
try changing the kernel....perform a factory reset and clean all the cache ...and then try flashing again....
I have this issue usually reboot, change usb socket or close firewall help for me atleast.
I am going to write a noob friendly flashtool guide for XDA and my website soon.

Hello all, I am requesting help with my Xperia Play.
It was not working smoothly, so I decided to install a custom ROM. I installed the ICS beta and then attempted to install xDark ICS but it has failed.
Pretty sure its R800i, bought unlocked in the UK
I cannot see anything on screen when I turn the device on
When the power button is pressed it vibrates slightly
I can put it in recovery mode (Holding Back and plugging USB) -light appears green
I can put it in fastboot mode (Holding Search and plugging USB) -light appears blue
When I try to flash any .ftf files with Flashtool it either comes up with an error or stays on "retrieving device information"
I cannot work out how to repair with PC Companion
When I select the .ftf file, no files appear in the firmware content. (I have tried various firmware files but any more would be appreciated)

Yeah I know how but I cant access the recovery menu.
Anyway, I resolved the issue by flashing the latest stock (.62) .ftf file from here and it seemed to work. Thanks

Your bootloader should be unlocked to use flashtool. Are u in stock ROM ?

Wrong. You do not need unlocked bootloader for Flashtool.
To OP: Download again the FTF file, seems like file is corrupted.

I agree with @bejunk
the latest version of flashtool have bugs, i also face the same issue like yours but after trying to do the same for 2-3 time solves the problem.
also the drag & drop support is also removed from latest flashtool.
The older version were great with no bug.
