Please help! Disconnect phone and try again?

Try this UK firmware: Baseband 64
https://rapidshare.com/files/698194045/R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1253-4437_.ftf
Works for me all the time! No errors and a good firmware
Also are you sure it's unlocked as in bootloader unlocked and not just rooted?
Go to the directory of flashtool and in drivers make sure Flashtool-drivers.exe is installed fully
Good luck

Bootloader is unlocked via Official SE page.
Finally managed to flash Enchanced .58 v2, but im trying to get back to stock .42 UK Generic.
When i try to load .ftf in flashtool, clicking at file in flashmode window. There are no files shown up at right side, drag&drop gives message : Flashing Aborted

Do u get any kinda error ...or it just freezes....???
try checking the notification light...if its still on or it goes off...
And have u tried any other firmware...?
try changing the kernel....perform a factory reset and clean all the cache ...and then try flashing again....

I have this issue usually reboot, change usb socket or close firewall help for me atleast.
I am going to write a noob friendly flashtool guide for XDA and my website soon.

[Q] Restoring Sony Xperia SL to Stock

Hey guy, i am afraid of unlocking the bootloader and installing CWM then using rooted ROMS and Kernals because i would like to revert back to fully stock as when i 1st got the device so i can install official OTA's when they are available. Is there anyway to revert back to stock recovery and relock the bootloader? I have tried to search this alot on XDA but nothing seems to help exactly. Can someone please provide instructions to get back to full stock?

forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794800 Here you will find how to relock bootloader. To get to stock you need to install via SEUS while recognizing your device as xperia S. later you can root it and edit build.prop file to recognize as SL.

Thanks so much! :good: but will this method remove CWM as well and get back to stock recovery?

maybe you have usb driver issues. please try on a different OS and make sure you have the fastboot drivers installed. also, does your phone have unlocked bootloader?

Stuck at Sony logo, can not switch off

Hi All,
I am new here & for these technical things also, but 1st of all I would like to appriciate all who made these difficult things look so easy.
Now my problem :
I have Xperia Arc, I flashed & rooted the device post that I was trying to install CM10. I also installed ClockWork Mod Ver 5.XXX.
I took backup & then I tried to install from SD card (CM10 Zip) but it gave me "Status7" error so I restored my backed up data & clicked on restart device...... from then now whenever I start the device it hangs on Sony logo, even I can not switcg it off, I have to take out battery to switch it off.
If memory serves me best I had Android 4.0.XX installed earlier.... Please suggest what to do to get my device up & running....
I again want to appriciate the people who pull out time to help others in such simpler ways ....

Boot into cwm wipe data,cache, (advanced )dalvic cache go to mounts storage format data, cache, system,next flash cm10 again.If that not work fastboot another JB kernel with cwm built in repeat above instructions.If all fails flash back to stock with a fft rom,hope that helps:fingers-crossed:

Because you have flashtool working you can either flash back to a stock rom with a ftf file found in arc forum.Or connect phone to flashtool let phone recognize phone might take two three minutes wait till flashtool says root access allowed.Then go to tools /reboot /recovery/reboot default version this should take you into cwm recovery then follow instructions in my first post.

As I told earlier also, I am very new for all this. I am not able to find a ftf file by which I can flash back. Please see if you can provide me with the exact link & the way how to do it through flosh tool. I know I am sounding dumb but actually this is my condition right now. Thanks in advance for all support

It seems to me you are already on .587
you might need to do the cache and dalvik
in general doing the back button should bring you to the menu
put back the battery of your phone and press the back button and see if that diplays the recovery mode from your tel from there delete cache and dalvik reboot it again wait a few minuteswhile booting and should come back to life

Looking at flashtool I thing you flashed Lti15 then tried to flash Lt18

Unhappy [Q] Flash tool error
Hi seen this before flashtool is saying you need the loader_unlocked.sin file you need to google it download it and place in flashtool/devices/mk16 folder in windows.Then flash again

Its somewhat a common problem with a flashtool. Do as tallman43 said and if this wont help then try to install an older version.

Easy one. Had the same issue. A littlr search in xda helepd me out
Open yor flachtool install folder.
Go to devices folder
Find R800 folder
Copy the unlocked_loader inside, to your MK16 folder.
Enjoy.
Ps. This worked for my arc. Try at ya own risk, but it should work
Sent from my LT15i using birds.

i had this proplem before
I had this problem before in my arc s all I do is go to C>>flashtool>>Firmwares and delete the ftf file I want to flash then go back and but it in the firmware folder and try it ll flash :fingers-crossed:
