while the phone is off connect it to pc, open Flashtool in fastboot mod. Flash a stock FW.
If that doesnt work open PC companion it should ask u to repair it if u follow istructions.
@deniel: It doesn't connect neither PC Companion or Flashtool. It doesn't enter in flashmode.

choose a FW
it will ask u to unplug the device and unplug it again holding the backbutton

:\ strange. if u try to turn it on what happens? and try with pc comapnion to open it an look for "repair" or "solve problems" cant really remember (with phone unplugged) then it will tell u what to do
Have you pressed the menu key while connecting phone to computer?
bricked phone have to be OFF(remove battery and put back if necesaary if it's stuck at sony screen), prepare flashtool ftf and follow onscreen instruction and the flashtool will revive the phone.
Or maybe you could show the error msg from flashtool.
you are really bold in trying the untested bootunlocker, this definitely is a hard brick. hope you get out of this one.

I tried with all.
Sorry for asking again: You started FlashTool (v0.9.8.0), clicked on the flash icon, selected "FlashMode", chose a firmware for your Arc S, activated "No final verification", clicked "OK", pressed the back button on the switched off phone WHILE plugging in the USB-Cable? No green LED - nothing? Did it work before?

Sorry if we repeat the same thing, but it must work like this: you hve the phone off and unplugged. You open flashtool, select the flash icon (flashtool), select the FW, and it tell u to plug the device to pc while holdin back button.
Sure u hold the the backbutton while pluggin in? and after have selected the FW ?
You've to select the firmware first before plugging it in.

Yeap. Is that I don't know how to restore my .TA file. I know what I changed but ... how????
Help me please??
LT18i
Locked Bootloader
Root access
Had CMW via Xtools, so when I replaced the rom that disapeared!
The problem is that I've forgot to run the 2nd part - device optimization, and now the touchscreen simply doesn't work...
Can't do nothing - USB Debugging is on by default (never forget that I can't touch the phone)
Can't upload another rom via flashtool, the only thing I'm able to do is change the kernel with the 1_lt18i_4.1.B.0.431_kernelDowngrade
If I try to put the uptodate kernel, flashtool stops on "Reading Device Information"
Already try to restore it with Pc companion, but no luck
USB device is detecting LT15 on windows!
This is a total mess, I'm lost, and I've googled and tryed dozens of things all day long.. I'm tyred, exhausted, and my 2 day old ARC S is bricked!!
Can someone point me a way out??
Remember:
- USB debbug of (have no access to activate it)
- CMW disapeared when installed this rom, so have no recovery menu
- Bootloader is locked
- Can't flash rom via flashtool
I'm devastated!!
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

Oh, dude flashtool just need your device driver and you have to press back button untill you connect your phone on your pc and it also shown on flashtool which is included in procedure of flashing through flashtool and one thing PC not need to recognized your device because flashtool is the only one method to recover bricked phone. that's it .. if you got confused then please search on google you will find the solution.

Dear bjchettri
I do appreciate all your efforts
I have to explain the situation just to make things more clear because it looks like you misunderstand me
when I connect my phone (in all modes "Bootloader, Fastboot, normal, recovery..etc) nothing happens on my pc
even in device manager (i'm using Microsoft windows) the system doesn't show any item for a new attached device or an item for an defined attached driver (which used to appear all modes)
the flashtool needs the system to find an attached device to communicate with (usually the attached device name looks like "android phone", SE android or something this (depends on ur phone brand, model)
now since my system doesn't find any device when I connect my mobile then the flashtool won't be able to communicate with my device (even if i tried to boot my device in all modes "bootloader, fastboot, normal, recovery) by holding specific buttons (menu or volumn down or back buttons)
and if you read my question you will see that i was asking if anyone knows any way to connect my phone using testpoints or something like this because i though maybe I can let my pc to recognize my phone using the testpoints method.
I'm not sure but if i could make my phone recognized by the pc then i will have like 10 ways to find the problem and fix it.

Ok so I've been trying to get flashtool to work with my xperia z1c but I can't get the phone to stay in flashmode. The green led lights briefly and flashtool detects a device in flashmode but after a short time it just drops out of flashmode and boots normally. I originally blamed windows 8.1 but have tried 2 windows 7 machines with the same results. Have tried the Sony z1c drivers package and the latest flashtool drivers - same result. I've searched on Google and found people with the same problem on different xperia devices but has anyone else had the same problem with their z1c? if so has anyone solved it?
Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app
So what is the problem? If the phone does not stay long enough in flashmode, try this:
Open flashtool
Click flash, and set up everything (firmware, wipe, etc.)
Now click on flash
After 30 seconds plug in your phone in flashmode.

Happened to me too. I just flashed it before it rebooted, once it starts flashing it wont reboot it'll finish the process. So no worries everything worked out fine.
Thanks for the responses. I'd previously tried to flash an ftf by putting the phone into flashmode first then pressing flash and it always rebooted before the files were prepared so assumed there was something wrong. If you prepare the files first then put the phone into flashmode then all is okay. Thanks again.

how do you boot into flashmode?
the right way is: turn off your device, open flashtools, choose flashmode, choose your ftf you want to flash and wait until finished,
push Vol- and hold it, then plug your device via usb to the computer, then flashtool does its job...

2. reboot your device
3. connect your device to PC (now it will be recognized)
4. shutdown your device
5. now the same as i mentioned in my previous post
