Hey guys!
I just installed new ROM to my Xperia Arc. I installed Xperia Ice Pureness from that site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788701
When I reboot my device it stuck just on SONY logo. If I try to connect my phone to the computer, it doesn't recognize my phone .I can't get to the ClockWork mode and nothing at all. I really need help because I use my phone for working and develpoing but now is bricked .
I know there are many discussions about that on forum but I didn't find anything useful here because my computer doesn't recognize my phone like in other cases.

Reflash a stock ics Rom and try again remember to wipe data, system and cache and dalvik cache before you flash custom Rom

Flash a stock .ftf in flashtool. Re-root and refresh rom
Sent from my lt18 using xda premium
Have you tried installing a custom kernel? You should try ArcKnight kernel. It works good with stock based roms.
Just reflash ftf via flashtool and the soft brick will be gone.

Flashtool
Try flashing a stock firmware in Flashtool, good luck.
Now downloading the stock firmware using sony update service, will update about the situation when it is done

Update Service with an unlocked bootloader is a bad idea.
Try this.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/flash-tool/how-to-download-and-install-the-flash-tool/
Official flashtool to go back to stock rom.
And as the guy above told you, SEUS on unlocked bootloader is a bad thing.
Hi. I have same problem.
Just flashed FreeXperia rom and gapps. Phone wont to power up. Just geting blue led or green.
Any clue? My bootloader is locked.
tried to use official xperia update tool but it wont to recognise my phone (maybe i doing sth wrong :/)

No it's not. If you have root you can push cwm via adb.

I'm talking about Cyanogen Mod (CM) not CWM. Next time read carefully.

Try this..
Dude,
As the others have said you cannot install FXP CM10 on a device with a locked bootloader.
As such your device will not boot, your options are to either.
1) use flashtool to flash a stock rom - instuctions how to use flashtool can be found on the forum
2) use Sony update service to flash back to stock - This is the easier option, but all your data will be wiped.
Once the device will boot up, if you still want to use FXP roms then unlock the bootloader first, or try a rom for locked bootloaders.
Either of the above should work for you.

yea phone works again fine on the stock
At least you show others, do not flash custom ROM if it's only for unlocked bootloader.
If you have locked bootloader you can't flash custom kernel and you will stuck in bootloop.

There is no way to install CM, with a locked BL!
You are phone is probably soft bricked by now...
Take a look at this guide! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
It will help you
ok so tonight i decided to unlock my xperia play's bootloader i followed the guide on sony's website. and all went ok.
But after restarting it froze after the boot animation and won't fully boot. But if i press vol up or down the phone makes sounds as if its booted please help or my parents will kill me.:crying:
It also wont boot into recovery no matter what i press or do
Flash stock firmware with flashtool.
Or flash custom kernel and custom rom.

but cant you only use flashtool when the phone is on.
Also lupus is the kernel i want to flash.
is there a way to use flashtool with the phone off?
Also is lupus compatable with CM10
Hold down search button while plugging phone in you will get into fastboot mode then choose fastboot mode press select kernel to flash and select kernel and done. If you want to unbrick or return to stock download a ftf file for your phone and move it to flashtool folder then firmwares then go to flashtool then press flashmode then select ftf file then follow instructions and this should help

ok btw i tried pc companion restore and i got an error :\
Don't use pc companion use the flashtool method I said and if you are having errors with pc companion relock your bootloader ONLY WITH STOCK ROM and I prefer sony update service. pc companion take 30 min to update phone update service takes 5 min

i know unlocking the bootloader didnt cause sony companion to fail i deleted all the software in the "safe list" of bloatware to delete to get more space and one of them was update services.
Thats why i really want to install CM 10

When you unlock bootloader PC companion update don't work anymore. Forget about using it as repair software
As i said in first reply:
-power off your phone (removing battery will do the trick)
-hold back button and connect usb cable to Play
-flash stock frimware with flashtool (tutorial how to use it is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2054486
(read on if you want custom kernel/ROM)
-download ROM you want to use and place it in SD Card
-power off your phone
-hold search and connect usb cable to Play
-in flashtool, click on lighting icon, choose fastboot mode and select kernel you want to flash
-remove usb cable
-power on phone, and phone vibrate press volume down key (Volume down is for CWR, volume up is for TWRP recovery in lupus kernel, for doomlord kernel is back button)
-format system and data from recovery
-choose "install zip from sdcard" and choose ROM that you put in sc card
Keep in mind that kernel must match rom you are instaling. JB kernel for JB roms, ICS kernels for ics roms, GB kernel for GB roms
List of roms and firmwares you can find at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2184897
half sucsessful
ok so i used flashtool to install lupus cm9 kernal then i booted into recovery and installed the cm9 zip from cyanogenmod website

Last thing i installed cm10/freexperia sucessfully after a while of tweeking
hi everyone,
i have a sony xperia arc s lt18i with locked bootloader.
i rooted it through eRoot Software and installed CWM through X-Parts from Market.
Afterwards i copied 2 different Custom Roms on SD-Card and tried to install any of both after i did a full wipe/cache/davlik.
Both Custom Roms couldn't be installed through CWM - there was an error 7 after "installing package..." (which mean i might have used the wrong Custom Roms).
Now my phone is stuck at SONY logo. I could not find a way to enter recovery mode through hardware buttons.
Sony PC Companion is not able to detect the phone connected via USB to PC.
What can i do next? Any help is appreciated!
