It's a bootloop, and try SEUS as suggested or the flashtool.

What should I flash? I flash again to original 4.0.2A.0.42 rom still got bootloop.... or I should use SEUS? I scare I brick my phone lol

SEUS won't work with a nootloader unlock phone.
Try to reflash .42 again and again with wiping data.

Bootloader is about to be unlocked

Yes I finally steped up and went through with unlocking the bootloader with jinx13. Its not yet done because im running windows 8 and my pc crashes but tomorrow i'll do it in another computer. But to the point!
I need advices on what not to do. The only problem is OTA and using PCC and Seus right? Any advice is appretiated!

When using test point via setools you cab still use pcc and seus and you will still keep drm,( think this was resolved after ics).
There are no issues with unlocked bootloader, you can only gain.
Just a point to remember that you can always relock bootloader with jinx13 if needed, as the server keeps records.

Just to clarify my previous post about the relock, if jinx13 does it then he can relock, if you use other company, then only they can relock. Hope this makes it more clearer.

U can use SEUS: ( http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/ ) or flashtool as you phone can't bootup so you can't use PC Companion as i know.But thees two other programs will work.SEUS is easier to use.Hope you'll get it fixed.
