I am not able to put my xperia m in flashmode using the flashtool. I tried turning off phone and then holding volume down and inserting the USB cable but nothing happens, there is no led flashing when i do that. Also my phone is not charging while connected to pc when its turned off.
I have every driver installed and i am using the lastest version of flashtool.
Dude you need to hold Vol + button to enter in fastboot.
I have tried both volume up and vol down nothing happens.

Does your phone charge through your charger when it is switched off?
when you connect your phone to pc in normal mode then does it detects??
No my phone doesn't charge with the charger when its turned off. And my pc detects my phone when connected normally.

If it's a soft brick, you can repair from PCC or flash using flashtool.

Lets just analyze your problem:
You launched flashtool and started a flash session.And then a window appeared in flashtool saying that you have to connect your phone in flashmode. You pressed Volume+ and connected your phone.
I want to know what happened next,
Did the window telling you to connect the device in flashmode close down automatically?
Was a pop-pup shown in your pc telling you to choose your phone model?
If these didnt happen, what else did?
I can help you certainly if you can answer these questions.
How do i unbrick my phone? I can't take it to center because i have rooted and unlocked bootloader.

If it's a hard brick we can do nothing about it.

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.

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.

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.

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,

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.

I had just successfully rooted my xperia play r800i and was installing CWM. After the installation was successful, I unplugged the phone as Flashtools said but it won't start. Now it's not even being detected by Flashtools. It is being detected by my laptop only with the beep sound and nothing else.
Also my battery was around 20% while I was flashing so maybe that had something to do with it.

try fastboot....see if the led turns blue..[power + vol up for fastboot]
if it turns blue...its not hard brick...flash kernel..then flash rom
How did you flash it? If you were using PC Companion or SUS, I believe the warranty may cover that.
Otherwise, let's see...
According to Google search, the Qualcomm CPU has a built-in USB download mode, which is the "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" that you see. When the device fails to boot it will enter this mode.
Perhaps try to enter flashmode?
Pull out the battery and wait for about a minute or so.
Insert the battery, close the back cover, then hold Volume Down key.
Insert USB cable and wait for the PC to detect it.
If the PC detects it, then flash (again)!
If the PC does not detect it or it detects as "QDLoader" again, perhaps try to pull out the battery and wait longer...
If it keeps entering "QDLoader" then your phone is really hard-bricked. It may still be possible to reflash, but we don't have the drivers and files, so just send it back to warranty, whatever.
* Just by the way, I think you can also enter the "QDLoader" mode by pressing Power + Vol Up + Vol Dn?

* Just by the way, I think you can also enter the "QDLoader" mode by pressing Power + Vol Up + Vol Dn?

Hi I got a similar case :/ I was partitioning my sd card with Aparted but as soon as I turned off my Xperia M to reboot it it got bricked and hasn't been working since. Cant get it to into flashboot mode or flashmode to flash the original firmware. No lights or buttons are working although when I connect it to my pc it detects it in usb but not as the phone itself. Is there anyway at all I can fix this. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
For everyone with the brick situation, do you have a locked bootloader?
I know one user said they tried the volume down+insert USB cable into the computer, you did try this with PC Companion ready to repair the software?
Sony Update Service restores the bootloader on locked bootloader phones, true? If the stock bootloader is corrupt somehow, SUS could repair it.

I am having the same issues as well, but with my Xperia V. It doesn't come up at all. It only shows the green LED when I try to fastboot or try flash mode. Please help me to resolve. I can't stand the wait for waranty to resolve. How can I still flash custom ROM?

ansebovi, thanks so much. You can't imagine how much I've trouble seeking help. My phone is now up, with the stock ROM. Can I flash a custom ROM with Flashtool?

Root > Unlock your Bootloader > Flash Custom ROM from flashtool or from CWM recovery mode
This qdloader is how Sony load the phone with software in the first place. Qualcomm's version of flashmode. Afaik only OEM have access to the software for this.

Guys, i need help too!!!! :'(
I tried to swap my internal and my external memory by using the mothod on a video on youtube called "how to swap xperia m /dual on 4.3".
And here's what happened after I rebooted: My xperia M is stuck on the boot screen (it goes till the multicoloured wave), and then it starts up again and again and again!!!! Also, I can't get my phone to connect in flash mode when I connect it to my pc so as to install the official ftf file I've downloaded, becase when I try to connect it with my pc, the phone's led just turns up red, then green (for just some seconds), and then goes back to the booting screen!!!! I have an Xperia M single sim, rooted, with a locked bootloader!! PLEASE HELP ME, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ANYMORE!!!!! :'(
