Xperia S -> Xperia-S_Relock_bootloader.ftf
-_- That's why i wanna to search for help..
Do you have flashtool? If not, download it, install drivers and open it. After that presso "BLU" button, connect the device in flashmode (vol-- and connect phone) , finally follow the instructions to relock bootloader

So why didn't you ask this question in the Relock thread instead of creating a new one? If you did that, you might have read the final page there and see that nowadays the relock ftf is included with Flashtool. It's also the reason why Flashtool is so enormous (119MB isn't a normal size for a tool like that), because it's packed with relocking ftf's and drivers.
So get Flashtool (here: http://www.flashtool.net/download.php). And follow the previous comment, should work out.
Ok...final question... Which cwm should i use for lock bootloader?? .96 stock firmware..

Well what order is everything done in? For instance, my R800i is 2.3.3. Do I unlock the bootloader (how?) then upgrade the FW to 2.3.4 and then root?
Is that correct?
Try this

http://adfoc.us/423185576886 using this method from doomlord worked great for me where everything else didn't.
Have a Xperia Play and have been trying to root for the past week now!
I have used at least 7 different programs but none of them work.
Im afraid the problem is i cant get into fastboot mode and my blue light wont turn on.
If thats the problem is there a way to fix it?
And if its not what is the problem and can i fix it?

Wait if you are just rooting you don't need to do that. What model is your phone?
Check if your bootloader isn't locked and you have unlock it first.
Rooting methods like Zerg rush not working on 2.3.4 software.

Thanks, but i havent figured out exactly what my bootloader is.
I have the Xperia PLAY R800x and gingerbread 2.3.3.
I just tried Flashtool and that didnt work either because my phone wont go into

Ok only thing is i need proper instructions cause the videos for that are messed up and old.
I also need a link for the previos firmware.
But last time i triedd i could only go into flashmode.
Screw that i think i might not have been able to do either.
I need good instructions

What I would do is flash back but at first check if your fastboot is actually not working.
Turn off the device and check it, take out the battery and put it back in then hold search button and plug in usb if you have a blue light then fastboot is ok.
You also need Android ADB drivers which you need to have the Android SDK to get them or if you have flashtool there is a drivers folder which is the simplest method to install ADB bridge.
Then using flashtool (if it worked) flashed the DoomLord Kernel, if it says you have no permission to do so then you need to unlock your bootloader.

ZergRush worked for me on the 2.3.4 but I've a GSM model so it might be different.

Ok I will most defenetly install the adb drivers once I know where to get them. How do I know if I have the android sdk?
I have the flashtool but when I downloaded it it came with 3 programs and no folders.
Can you give me the link to the folders or to the flashtool that has the folders with it when you install it?
I also need the link to the doom kernel which I might have and instructions on how to flash it.

You should first download flashtool. Then use flashtool to flash the verizon firmware. I will provide a link. Then enter flashmode by turning your phone off completely. Hold the back button, and plug the usb in the computer and then into the phone while still holding the back button. A green light should appear on the top. Then flash the firmware and there. Then use superoneclick to root

Luckily you have flashtool so you do not need the Android Sdk. There should be a drivers folder in your flashtool and an executable inside that will install like a normal program. This contains all the drivers you will ever need.
On every time it installs one it will prompt you to install or not install jusf click install and you will be asked this about 20 times for each driver.

If I remember correctly, the xperia play 4g was R800at and not R800x. Well anyway you have to download the firmware for your phone. Then place it in the firmware folder inside the flashtool folder. This should be the correct firmware for your phone. http://www.mediafire.com/?qqvtl484nlz3gq0 just place the ftf in the firmware folder. Start flashtool, click flash, then choose flashmode. Select the firmware.There should be instructions on how to plug in your phone and there it should flash.

Alternatively, you could flash official firmwares. This is the Latest ICS Firmware.
If i'm not wrong, you will need to install Android SDK and Flashtool.
After you installed Flashtool, locate the installation directory and install the drivers. Follow the video below for the flashing part
Hi you can check sony forums there a couple of threads about flashing stock ics in your arc

Don't complicate your life even more. The guy above told you already. Use Flashtool, and flash official ROM (.ftf format). It doesn't get any easier that this really.
0. Before anything, install PC Companion, or Sony Update Service, for the drivers sake.
1. Install Flashtool.
http://androxyde.github.com/
2. Download official ICS ROM.
https://hotfile.com/dl/167361348/43349db/LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf.html
3. Move downloaded ROM into C:\Flashtool\firmwares folder.
4. Run Flashtool, click flash button, choose flashmode, click OK, leave everything defaultly checked. After few seconds it will ask you to connect your phone in flash mode.
5. Turn off your phone (charged above 50%) and connect it to your PC with back button pressed (flash mode).
6. Flashtool will recognise your phone and start flashing process. You can release back button as soon as the flashing process starts.
7. Wait untill the flashing is complete, disconnect your phone, and turn it on.
That's it.
i just wanted a link for a rom thats all .. thank you

Yes it will definitely erase everything
Even your root will be lost
Just simply flash the ftf file in flashmode using flastool
I would recommend to go for the update if root is not that important for you
Becoz the phone is now hell lot smooth and fast :thumbup:
