Turn phone off. Press and hold volume down key and plug in the cable. After flashtool recognized your device in flashmode (5sec) you can release the volume key

Thank u Safixs but when I press the vol down button and connect the cable the red light blinks one time then the flashtool says ( INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode) and the problem is that I cannot boot my phone to change the MTP settings?

I cannot press back button because as i said before my phone cannot boot at all when I connect it through USB or wall charger it shown only red light.

Flashtool needs usb debugging enabled, if I remember correctly. And fastboot seems to need a special usb mode. I you can't boot to change those values maybe a repair in PC companion will help.
Xperia ZL, 4.2.2 Stock (.67), rooted
let me describe what I did :
1. open back cover.
2. unplug Power cable.
3. plug USB cable.
4. fun flash tool on PC.
5. Hold Vol down and connect USB cable.
6. it did flash my phone.
But now my phone stuck on Flash mode. I did Vol up and connect USB cable but it did'nt help at all it get me to blue light ??
the flashtool ask me to turn off my phone and press home button and connect the USB cable?? I don't have Home button coz my phone is not booted!!!!
Any suggestions to boot on normal mode not flash mode.

try the above solution and see if it works ..repair via pc companion
It's the same its boot in the flash mode as you can see below:
INFO - Device connected in flash mode
but when I use BLU its that i have to press the home button?? I cannot run the home button
That's crazy.
First: flashtool don't want home, it want the back button
Second: zl don't have back button when it's off, it's the volume down key
Third: you don't have a friend who had knowledge about flashing Android's? You are on the best way to kill your zl, when it's not killed right now

I've tried to flash "LT15_LT18_70_Baseband.ftf" on Arc phone using flashtool 8.0.0 x64, flashtoox64.exe.
I pressed flash button and check flashmod and OK, select "LT15_LT18_70_Baseband.ftf" and selected all sins and ok. Then I got usb connection guide screen and I plugged usb in arc as described at usb connection guide screen.
But the "usb connection guide screen" didn't disappear and I got these logs at flashtool application.
Please connect your device into flashmode.
- Device connected in fastboot mode
INFO - List of connected devices (Device Id) :
INFO - - USB\VID_0FCE&PID_0DDE\CB5A1FWGV2&ZLP Driver installed : true
INFO - List of ADB devices :

INFO - List of fastboot devices :
INFO - - none
INFO - Device disconnected
And I tried usb connection with "flash.exe", then I got this attached picture, and still the "usb connection guide screen" didn't disappear as shown in the attached picture.
Please let me know how to connect my arc phone into flashmode.
Thanks in advance.
Have you put it in flash mode? I.e. Turn off the phone hold the menu button then connect the USB?

Press and hold.
Yes, I pressed and holding "Back" button I plugged usb.
But still flashtool shows "INFO - Device connected in fastboot mode".
Phone should be in Mass Storage Mode (MSC) and you need to switch off your phone. Press and hold Back when flashtool tells you to do so, plug in the USB and release Back only when instructed.
xtacy!/ Yes, I checked MSC, and pressed and hold "Back" button when the guide picture appear.
I also tried at safe with networking, but same result.
" INFO - Device connected in fastboot mode "
This log was loaded.
Try using Media Transfer mode.. To be honest, i never used MSC mode in my lifetime while flashing with FT and has always been in MT mode..
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
Same here. I've never really used MSC mode. I prefer MTP. But the instructions say to use the former. Oh well.

gire.prasad/ Thanks.
I changed twice, then it works.
If it tells you you're on Fastboot mode, then it's not the correct key you're holding. If it needs flashmode, your led should turn green, if it turns blue, it's on Fastboot mode.
You can try this by powering off your phone and trying holding down keys until the green led is on. (Dunno which one is for Arc, I have a Pro).

I think your phone hard bricked !
In this situation if you couldn't reset your phone by holding power+volume up till it 3 times vibrate , try power+volume down when you connected to pc sometimes it reset your phone.
try power+volume up when you plugged in wall charger till 3 times vibrate ( in some situations it happens after 30 second you hold both.
If none on this reset your phone , its only way that you send it to repare service of sony to re write your bootloader by JTAG box. I had the same problem when I install an improper kernel and I search all of net and try all thing I found but after 2 week I can't solve the problem and only way to back your phone to work is, re writing your bootloader by JTAG box
Anybody can help? maybe trim area problem??
that happened to me once. I removed the battery, connected the wall charger, and then put the battery back. It was the last thing I tried and it worked.
(Yes, I had to open the phone, so I don't have warranty)

1-Download first Android SDK
2- Open device manager in windows
3- Connect usb cable to your phone pushing vol up button
4- Device manager will show you fastboot device for 2-3 sec (before the phone goes to charge mode). Right click on fastboot device and install drivers from C:\Android\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
4) Reconnect usb cable pushing volup button

Download flashtool and when you have downloaded flashtool install the drivers in the flashtool folder and download a ftf file for your phone and put it in flashtool folder then firmwares then open flashtool and press the flash icon then press flashmode and select your ftf file then press flash then follow the instructions.

Do not connect your phone then press the flash icon then select your ftf file then press flash and it will say preparing files for flashing you should then get a message showing up and press back while plugging in phone

Debugging mode have nothing with your problem. It only means that you didn't entered in flashmode.
I think you have problem with flex cable, maybe you should reopen your Play and check flex cable again.
Try to hold search when plugining in phone, flashtool should report that you are in fastboot mode. If flashtool again report error (that "debugging not on") it means that maybe your keyboard is not working. Or flex. Or both.
But make sure you also try different usb cable and/or different usb port on motherboard (mainly back ports, sometime front ports can be jirky for unknown reason)

just to be clear to put it into fast boot mode i have attempeted the following
remove battery, wait 5 seconds, reinsert battery, hold search and power simltaniously, nothing
remove battery, wait 5 seconds, reinsert battery, press power until vibration while holding search, nothing
remove battery, hold search, reinsert battery still holding search, hold power button while still holding search, nothing
remove battery, wait 5 seconds, reinsert battery, hold search, insert usb, begins charging... no blue light
it shows no sign of charging after i "turn it on" the light goes out but i know that the front plate, i.e screen,menu buttons is not completely unresponsive as if i hold the return button when i insert the usb it recognizes it different as i was trying to flash it earlyer and it is required in the updating process, please help
it seems if i leave it plugged in via usb it will randomly disconnect and reconnect from the computer and yes pc companion will say that the device is detected every time. its almost as if it is stuck in an invisible and very fast bootloop as it disconnects and reconnects at about 5 second intervals, this only happens after it has been "turned on"
it also appears that the battery drains very rapidly as after only a few minuets of removing battery holding power ect. it will no longer "turn on" and no light will turn on through a usb socket but when plugged into the wall after a short pause it shows the amber charging light. could this be a battery problem? con the xperia play normally boot off wall power without a battery? if so then it is the devices problem as mine cannot but if it cant normally then maybe its the battery, i have a new one ordered and will arive soon and i will keep you posted.

if its not clear it is acting extremely erratically with no clear logic but a few things are constant. no boot. no fastboot mode, charging light, pc companion recognizes it. have tried to be as detailed as possible so that someone may be able to pinpoint my problem.

If u use flashtool u can restore ur phone without unlocked bootloader because Flashmode doesn't require unlocked bootloader

my xperia play r800i wont boot, it show signs of charging e.g blinking red light, red light, amber light, green light but wont boot, when i remove the battery and re insert it it will vibrate and then nothing, not even the backlight turns on just a black screen, i cannot get it to go into fastboot mode strangely so i am unable to unlock the bootloader and therefore unable to flash it back to stock, if some-one could point me to a video guide on how to get it to go to fastboot mode. with the pc companion tool it first saw it as "null" device but after updating it to latest firmware through it it reconises it as an r800 xperia play yet i am unable to browse files at all on it. i have also re updated it through update service but again nothing. this phone is out of warranty so that isn't an option. if anyone could help it would be awesome.

nothing, thats the strange thing, i just put it on charge one day and then... poof, dead
I've got the exact same issue, but i know how you could get into flashmode or fastboot mode.
Pull the battery out and insert the usb cable (when connected to the Pc of course) and put the usb cable in the phone while holding either back or the search button. Nownit should be in the sepected mode

If your bootloader is unlocked, use this method, BUT BE SURE to carrefully READ the steps, ESPECIALLY the steps "when to connect cable to phone"

Does your flashmode stop after a little bit of time? It does on mine, that's really strange

Try to get into fastboot mode with that method i told you above. Then try to unlock your bootloader.
Pull battery out -> insert usb cable first in computer -> connect it to the Play while holding the search button -> put the battery in while still holding the search button -> then you can release the button and you should be in fastboot mode.
That's at least how it worked for me. I then flashed new software. Mine can boot to the kernel where it then shows an image and shuts down. No matter what kernel/rom I am trying.
