If you can boot into fastboot (blue light on usb connection) you may have a chance to load cyanogenmod to fix the partitions etc and then you could revert to stock 2.3.4

tried that. but i got it fixed, i just needed to relock my bootloader with a custom .ftf file and then just unlocked and all the steps again. and its all fine now

Turn off.
Hold back button.
Plug in USB cable.
You should see a green LED, that means you're in Flash Mode.

No.
Fastboot uses the same instructions but you hold in the SEARCH button to reveal a blue LED.

Since nobody has any idea how to help you just leaving your phone in charger for 24 or more hours sometimes that helps and might allow you flashing correct firmware.

Even my phone got bricked after flashing SSpeed kernel by krabappel. You can try charging it for more time until you get the SONY logo and your phone starts bootlooping or you get a green led. You can try doing, but I don't think that you will get anything except a red led. Also, try going into either download or fastboot mode once your phone is charged and try flashing the stock kernel. If you get into download mode(green led) then in flashtool tick all boxes which say exclude system, exclude baseband ... but leave exclude kernel ticked. If you get into fastboot, flash the attached stock kernel of XSL in fastboot. Use this command - fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot kernel.sin
It is the 100% stock kernel taken from Xperia SL LT26ii's stock .55 FTF. Good luck
Also, you have to extract kernel.zip to get the kernel.sin file as we can't upload .sin files directly on XDA.

It should be. Btw, SSpeed is also for .55fw just in case you didn't know so I don't think that it should be a problem. Once you flash the kernel, let the phone charge for some time then go ahead and flash the entire .55 fw with flashtool.

Just check if there is some kind of a ribbon attachment or something. If not then just remove the battery and put it back in. Or else disconnect and reconnect the ribbon cable.

Plug the phone in the wall charger. The phone battery will die then start to charge again. mine took about 2 full days before it showed red led. It all depends on how full ur battery was when it soft bricked tho..

Are you pressing it BEFORE you connect it ? You've got to press it before you connect it and keep pressing it until you connect it and green led appear. Because if you press it after you connected it, nothing will happen, phone will be just charging
