urgent: please help to flash boot.img file to my xperia m - Sony Xperia M

there is no option to flash boot.img file in flashtool

Connect your phone to flashtool, make sure that connection is in Mass Storage. Click the Flash button and select fastboot mode, Now a new Window popups, click 'Reboot to adb mode', check log in flashtool, now your mobile indicator led is in blue color. Next, click on 'Reboot to fastboot mode', check log and then click on 'Flash Kernel' and direct it to select the boot.img before that make sure You select the file type as *.img in the new window, by default it was *.sin. Thats all.

[Q] Arc S, fastboot stuck at " sending 'boot' "

Hi,
I have wanted to try CM10 for some time, and unlocked my Arc S for the first time today. I followed the guides at freexperiaproject, so it seems that I was able to unlock the bootloader successfully. After it was unlocked I rebooted and all my user data was reset (as expected).
I downloaded "FXP150-cm-10-20121208-UNOFFICIAL-anzu" from rapidgator and "gapps-jb-20121011-signed" wich I found at the cyanogenmod wiki. I put both the zip files in the root of my SD card. When I try running "fastboot flash boot boot.img" it says "sending 'boot' <5616 KB>...", but nothing more happens. I let it stay for several minutes and I have to push Control+C to abort it. I also extracted "boot.img" to the platform-tools folder under android-sdk.
In the SDK Manager I have installed "Android SDK Tools", "Android SDK Platform-tools" and "Google USB Driver".
Am I doing something wrong? Is there anything more I should do before running fastboot? Sorry if I have missed a basic step here.

First, copy the file .img to the fastboot folder, if the file system.img means you have to run the command with the command: fastboot> fastboot flash system system.img, if the file userdata.img means that the command should be fastboot> fastboot flash userdata userdata.img .if the file xxxxboot.img mean form the command fastboot> fastboot flash boot xxxxboot.img
Iam using google translate.so,I hope I helped you and I hope you understand

The file from the zip file is called "boot.img". I have copied it to the fastboot folder, and I am running "fastboot flash boot boot.img", as the "how to-" says.
Reinstall drivers

did you make the phone enter fastboot mode?
you should run "fastboot devices" to see.
Thanks for the replies!
I tried on a different computer this morning, and here it worked immediately. Not sure what was wrong on the other one, because I installed the same SDK packages and USB driver. Installing ROM at the moment.
[Edit]: Everything seems to be working fine. Very happy with CM10 at the moment

but when I try to connect it in flashboot mode & In flashtool Press "Reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB) ,
It show error that "This action needs a connected device in ADB mode"
what I have to do to flash boot.img ?

device is connected in flashmode , I also attached blue noti. LED pic which on when connect...
How I connect device & flash boot.img ???
Can I flash that kernel directly by clicking "select kernel to flash" ?
& Why it is showing ADB error when I click "reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB) ??
In advance thank you...

i dont like flashing kernel by flashtool, as far i done several 2011 devices the best method allways was over adb:good: & it pretty easy.
download android sdk & open the exe. leave all like it is (only may make sure google usb drivers are checked) & press on install.
after install place the boot.img here: ...\sdk\platform-tools
2. connect device into fastboot mode (blue led)
3.click in a empty space in the folder. now HOLD SHIFT & right click, choose ''open command line window here'' (<-- or sth like that sorry my setup is german)
4. enter 'fastboot devices' --> your device should be recognized as a bunch of numbers.
5. flash kernel by entering ''fastboot flash boot boot.img'' it tells you all done.
6. ''fastboot reboot''
7. enjoy new kernel

Hi,
I am trying to install this rom legacy xperia 4.2.2 But I am stuck at flashing kernel
The tool is flashtool as you can see in picture
http://www.uppic.org/share-AA2F_520F170B.html
When I click select kernel to flash, it doesnt do anything and the red text says error...
Don't use flashtool, try using fastboot.exe instead.
Place the kernel in the same directory as fastboot.exe, press shift and right click on the directory and click "open command window here"
Then type they following into cmd:
fastboot devices
Confirm you see at least one device there, it will appear as a jumbled set of numbers and letters followed by the word fastboot. That will be your device.
After that, type this into cmd:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
If done correctly, it will say boot.img sent or something, it will definitely show some kind of success.
You can disconnect your phone now, boot it up and press vol down when you see a blue flash. This will bring you into CWM recovery.
From there, select install zip -> choose from SD card -> ROM zip
Flash it and reboot, you should have CM10.1 running on your phone now.
P.S this should be in Q&A section instead of general.

Connect your phone in fastboot mode first. For that, turn off your phone, connect USB cable to the PC, then hold down Menu button and connect USB cable to the phone. If blue LED lights up, phone is in fastboot mode. If not, try again.

So the easy way should be repairing your file-system of your system partition and reflashing your system partition.
1. go to twrp and select wipe -> advanced wipe -> select "system" and press the button "change or repair filesystem" -> "repair filesystem"
2. flash your system partition: download the fastboot rom you used before your system got broken from here
3. Extract rom and copy system.img to your fastboot folder
4. If you use windows 10: shift+right click somewhere in the white area of your fastboot folder "open power shell window here" - on windws 7 it will be open command prompt here...
5. flash system (windows 10 - for windows 7 copy code without ./)
Code:
./fastboot flash system system.img
Now your system shoud run again.
Alternatively you can download mi fash tool and flash your fastboot rom with flashtool - in the flashtool you can select the folder of your extracted fastboot rom and if your phone is in fastboot mode you can press "flash"
Important on the lower right corner you can select "clean all" ths will erase data, "save userdata" this will keep your data and "clean all and lock" this will erase data and relock your bootloader - last choice I wouldn´t recommend...

So the easy way should be repairing your file-system of your system partition and reflashing your system partition.
1. go to twrp and select wipe -> advanced wipe -> select "system" and press the button "change or repair filesystem" -> "repair filesystem"
2. flash your system partition: download the fastboot rom you used before your system got broken from here
3. Extract rom and copy system.img to your fastboot folder
4. If you use windows 10: shift+right click somewhere in the white area of your fastboot folder "open power shell window here" - on windws 7 it will be open command prompt here...
5. flash system (windows 10 - for windows 7 copy code without ./)
Code:
./fastboot flash system system.img
Now your system shoud run again.

First of all, thanks for taking the time.
so i had 9.6.4 stock oreo on the phone. then i updated. i have the folder for it. but even when i tried to flash "system.img" but there is some kind of error.
i have access to a windows 7 pc at work, so i could probably try it all again tomorrow, using ur steps here.
whatever happens i will update here. thanks again

one more thing, miflash gives error "cant find script" when i select "clean all" or "clean all and lock". so i think my only option will be to try adb or maybe you have the proper .bat file you could attach for me.
.bat files i have are in the "daisy_V9.6.11.0.ODLMIFF_8.1" folder i extracted

Download rom and right click "extract here" a folder will be created and this folder you need to select in miflash. In the folder you should see the .bat files and a folder "images"

You have to copy system.img to fastboot folder and right click somewhere to select "open command prompt here"
Then type
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Your phone has to be in fastboot mode...
i did exactly as you directed. but still nothing. i have attached the result of the cmd executions so far.

TWRP shows my current slot as B. i just took note of that. probably why all flash cmds arent working. Any ideas?

Ah, I see, yes, you did everything right. It's still a problem with your system partition...
Have you tried formatting your system partition via twrp? And have you done the repair of the partition, I suggested above?
If you can enter fastboot mode, that's good enough
In the fastboot mode, send this command 'fastboot oem edl' to enter the emergency download mode.
Then flash any of the firmware ROM in that mode.
The phone will automatically reboot when done.

Yes i did. thats on Slot A after i noticed which slot was active. so basically:
1. i switched to Slot A.
2. changed the file format type. den repaired and formatted it back to ext4.
3. as an after thought after trying adb and faile, i tried Miflash again.
4. dont kno how long it takes to flash. it started, wch was a surprise but its been on for...let me check...2530secs
how long is it expected to tAKE. its 5.46pm now and i have to shutdown soon

Okay, while in that mode
Connect your phone to laptop
Open miflash tool, your phone should appear as COM32 or so
Then flash in this mode selecting clean all.
You should be fine.

1. Exit edl by pressing pwr for more than 10 sec.
2. Make sure keymaster.img is in the folder "images" of your extracted fastboot image.
3. Go back to fastboot and enter
Code:
fastboot oem edl
The extracted folder with the images should look like image 1
4. Open MiFlash and select the folder daisy global image v9.x.x.x....
5. Now flash...

If you like pie, that´s the last one: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.0.3.0.P...e8d8d4a6d0.tgz
And the last oreo build: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.6.11.0.O...8028e3bf1c.tgz
Install winrar - if you don´t have and right click on the downloaded file: "extract here"
Now you should have the same file struckture as shown on image 1... Good luck!
