My Xperia S bricked. What can I do now? - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi,
I was on official JB .200 and my phone was not rooted and bootloader locked. I want to downgrade to ICS but now it seems got stuck at Sony and Xperia logo, keep rebooting.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997030
I followed the guide in this link and used the LT26i_6.1.A.2.55_SG Generic (1257-6921).ftf from the link http://ni.0a0.in/files/3432_kznsa/LT26i_6.1.A.2.55_SG Generic (1257-6921).zip and flashed without wipe user data. All procedure seems fine without problem, no error reported. I'm on win7 64bit and used FlashTool64.
Now Sony PC Companion can't detect my phone again. Flashtool keep reports Device disconnected and Device connected with USB debugging off..... can't flash it again via flashtool.
What can I do now? Send it back to Sony?
P.S. Problem solved.... mod please close this thread.

I followed this guide and manage to get in green led and allowed to flash with flashtool again. This time I flash the LT26i_6.1.A.2.55_SG Generic (1257-6921).ftf with user data wipe and the phone now boot up successfully. Gonna unlock BL and root/recovery and flash JB .200/.211 later.

Missed to enable USB debugging, bricked?

http://popofibo.com/pop/upgrade-sony-xperia-from-ics-to-jelly-bean-android/
Was following this guide for my girlfriends Xperia Pro, im a bit tired (And stupid?) so I forgot to enable usb debugging, and now I'm stuck on the DoomLord’s Rooting Toolkit step beacuse it cant connect without the USB debugging mode turned on.
Can I somehow revert or turn on USB debuging without being able to get into the phone?

The Flashtool, Updating, Unbricking & De-Branding:
PLEASE NOTE:
If you have Un-Locked your Bootloader DO NOT UPDATE Over The Air (O.T.A) or YOU WILL BRICK your Device. If you have Bricked then see THIS thread with how to Restore your Phone.

The Flashtool is simply what it says on the tin, it's a tool that flashes Firmware to your device in a similar manner as SEUS or PC Companion does except the Flashtool requires .ftf files which can be downloaded from your devices General or Development forum. This is generally the preferred method for Repairing your Phone if SEUS or PC Companion aren't an option or you just prefer not to use them. You can also use the Flashtool to flash a Generic .ftf to your device which will remove any Operator Branding from your device.
This video by BlueChipJ explains the process of using the Flashtool...
...or you can use (specific Phones only) the Official Sony Flash Tool. See maxio1998's thread for more info - [TOOL]Official Sony Flash Tool | Unlocked Devices

please help me..........i felling very low:crying::crying:
I think you can keep your bootloader unlocked.
Just download an official ROM FTF file for your phone and flash it using Androxyde's FlashTool. It should debrick your phone. Then, you can repeat your experiments with custom ROMs.

i have tried using it but no change..

HELP!!! Boot Loop - Update Error

Don`t pass of this! And Sony Companion do it the same, error! FlashTool nothing, can`t into recovery. Sorry For My Bad English...
Here, try this. It saved my device from being bricked.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/tool/flash-tool-for-xperia-devices/
Download a working genuine sony FTF and try again.
Reboot in fastboot and flash it.
I forgot to mention that you must have installed adb and fastboot drivers. Google them.
Flashtool driver pack i think it was.
Install them. If you have problems, disable driver signature verification. There is info on the internet.
After that, try again with the clean FTF.
Emma FlashTool no read it, it need bootloader unlocked. Already tried with many FTF but I have "loader" error
Screw the emma flashtool. It is useless.
Try with sony flashtool.
There is a bit of difference.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
Get it from here.
There is info on how to use.
He already said that FlashTool isn't working for him. So I thought he unlocked his bootloader, which is why I posted EMMA.

so you unrooted and flash with flashtool,and the effect is not booting up?Is there any LED light when you try to turn the phone up???The problem flashing with Xperia Companion or PC Companion is that the phone has to be booted up.
EDIT:I saw somewhere here on xda forum that xperia companion might work if your bootloader is still locked.

Your device is on bootloop. You have to flash stock firmware to get it working normally. For that, using xperifirm, download ftf file for your device and then flash it using flashtool. Make sure you install device drivers right in your pc. The only problem of doing above procedure is you'll lose your data.
If you're not concerned about data, just follow procedure written above.
If you are concerned about data, then install cwm recovery and backup your data first and then flash ftf file.
I thought the same.....
After unlocking bootloader,the data partition is erased so no point of backing up haha..
I did it successfully yesterday.. Thanks though
TA partition gone though :'(
