I cant repair my phone using Pc Companion or Sony Update Service !! :crying:
It says: Your phone includes modified software can not be update
Download your country firmware and flash with flashtool, then reconnect to update service. It will work then.

Then you can't update using SEUS or PC Companion.
Download the firmware you want from one of the threads and flash it using Flashtool.
Or go the adb route.

million tnx !
try and connect using fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133650 , if you can then the bootloader is unlocked and you can't use the update service, you'll have to flash using flashtool/fastboot, they're in the same thread, but you can flash a pre-rooted img. if you can't connect to fastboot, you may have to root after every upgrade.

Google it, i remember saw it in one forum/blog out there when i lookin for .57 stock for my R800x
And the link is alive there

I suggest you .58 enhanced v2 over .62 bcoz it gives 420 mb data partition and easily rootable if you want to keep root.

Any one had such problem?

How are you connecting your phone? For Xperia S, to connect to EMMA your phone must be in fastboot or flash mode(can't remember which one). Have you tried connecting in these modes?
Edit:
That's an interesting picture.
