Connect phone when Flashtool asks, not before.
Also, questions must be posted in Q&A section, hence why Q&A is called Questions & Answers.

Sorry about that.
Tried to connect when flashtool asks, still got same error

Locked bootloader? Try PC Companion.
Unlocked bootloader? Try this - http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/flash-tool/how-to-download-and-install-the-flash-tool/

[Q] Xperia Play R800i could'nt start and the screen is black.

My Xperia Play R800i could'nt boot up after flashing the ice cream sandwich rom. So i downgraded it to 2.3.3 but i can't play the games i wanted so i decided to update it via the update function in the phone.The problem starts, while updating it suddenly turned off and could not start up, i just vibrate and nothing happens.When i press the power button it flashes green light once, not like the others flashes 3 times red light, so i think i not uncharged.When i flashes another rom, it will not reboot automaticly. The PC Companion also could not help.Pls help !!! I just bought it for 4 days!!:crying:
