Phone with official rom , never isntalled CWM or any unofficial stuff. It boots ok to standard mode but not any other mode. I have tried in two different pcs with Windows XP and Windows 8. Phone doesn't even seem to try to boot in those modes, is not like the PC isn't detecting it.
I'm totally lost on how to recover the flashmode functionality to be able to unlck bootloader and install CM, any help will be welcome.

You must be doing something wrong.
Flashmode - turn the phone off, connect USB cable to PC, hold down Back button, connect USB cable to the phone. Green LED should light up, then phone is in flashmode.
Fastboot mode - turn the phone off, connect USB cable to PC, hold down Menu/Option button, connect USB cable to the phone. Blue LED should light up, then phone is in fastboot mode.
Nah, it didn't worked. I got it to still a recovery with X-parts app. Booted to the recovery, wiped everything, did a factory restore, since that moment it won't boot at all, Sony logo and it won't power off without taking off the battery. Of course, still won't enter flashmode or flashboot.

Did you install the drivers for it? If you want to use either flashtool or fastboot you need to install these programs along with the drivers. Also, ignore the prompt by Sony PC Companion when prompted. If you can boot into ROM, check that USB debugging is enabled.

Drivers installed, USB debugging enabled, tried on two diferent computers.
I have some experience not only in flashing roms but also in rom cooking, kernel compilation, etc... and after all day I couldn't get it to go to flashmode. My girlfriend -she is the owner of the phone- remembered me we already have problems being unabled to access flasmode when she bought the phone and wanted to update it with sony software, so I finally took it to the shop so they can send it to repair service.
Thanks guys for your prompt replies.
Hello,
I have accidently hard bricked my xperia play.
After i soft bricked it due to flashing a wrong rom i managed to fix it again but then the phone couldnt detect my sdcard.
So i tried to install a new rom again what then failed badly.
I tried to flash it with flashtools but it failed because i forgot to activate debugging so i just plugged my phone out and tried to start it but it somehow didnt work....
Now my computer only does a sound when i plug it in and flashtool nor my computer can detect my phone.
There neither is a led blinkin..
Is there anything i can do?

well i first flashed the wrong rom and had a soft brick
after that, i fixed it by flashing the stock rom
then, i again tried to flash a firmware with flashtools because my phone couldnt detect the sd-card and cwm somehow didnt work anymore.
while trying to flash the firmware i had to unplug my phone while flashing because i didnt activate debuggin, the flashing had already started tho.

is it same for fastboot mode ? (power off, hold search and plug in usb)
Try other usb port, or maybe different cable
reinstall drivers from flashtool folders
right-click on "my computer" , click "manage", click "device manager". Is there any item with yelow mark, someting called "adb" or "semcusb"?
What is your model? i,a,at or x? locked or unlocked bootloader?
Wich stock firmware did you tried to flash previously? .79?

hi,
im not sure if i did it right but it still didnt work
I did it like shown here http://i2.minus.com/i9RmZrmhz0sq4.jpg so I connected the pointed end to the TP and the other end of the cable with the micro-usb.
Oh shoot,
i just realized that i didnt erase the old cache and date when i tried to install the new rom after i installed the stock rom because i couldnt enter cwm.

Try PC Companion.
Or try to enter in flash mode from different computer
Basicly, all you need is to enter flash mode and flash stock ftf with flashtool.
Why you can't enter flash mode, i am unable to understand...

reinstall drivers from flashtool folder (most probably it's in c:\Program Files (x86)\Flashtool\drivers\ )
Connect your Play in flash mode (power off, hold back and plug in usb)
Look in device manager for anything with name sony, sony erricson, semc, adb, r800... Expand all items if you have too. Screenshot would help also
Check in other mods too (normal and fastboot mode)

But I spent hours now, to find a method to reanimate my phone. Still I didnt find a suitable semc package or sin_file_set to flash in s1tool.
In other thread I read a hint that maybe I destroyed my trim area. First of all I made a backup of trim area with backupTA program. The backup is a .zip file or .img file. Is there a possibility to restore my phone?

Hi there,
I believe I hard bricked my phone as well (screen stays black, phone vibrates once when keeping the power button pressed, cant get into recovery, volume down button pressed connecting via USB shows green red light flash).
However when connecting to the S1 tool Emma from Sony it detects the phone (see below screen shot) and says the bootloader wasn't unlocked. I am pretty sure I have done this. (It is my first attempt to install a custom ROM).
The S1tool in the description below seems not to recognize the device.
After ploughing through some threads and reading about opening the device looking for test points I thought your thread here seems to be more fit for purpose.
I used EasyRootTool and LockedDualRecovery. I also created a back up file with Backup-TA before bricking it. I got this on my other machine and can attach this if needed tomorrow.
Some help and guidance would be very much appreciated.

Another point: in flashtool you can also unlock and lock the bootloader BLU button). (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2440597) (http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/46-sony-xperia-z1-compact-d5503) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642081) (Type in phone *#*#7378423#*#* and go to Service Info => Configuration. If bootloader is unlocked it will say: "Bootloader unlocked: Yes". If it says something else like "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes", it means the bootloader is locked.). So you can check, if your bootloader is really unlocked

I dont believe, that your phone is ahrdbricked. It seems to be a soft brick: screen stays black, phone vibrates once when keeping the power button pressed, cant get into recovery, volume down button pressed connecting via USB shows green red light flash.
So, you can boot in flashmode. Use flashtool (latest version 9.18), its a powerful tool. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658952) (http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/09/0...allows-you-to-download-xperia-firmware-files/) (http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php) If you have installed flashtool, change to the flashtool folder (C:\flashtool), then drivers, execute the .exe and choose the drivers (fastboot, flashmode and for phone model), then run flashtool. In the links above you can see how to use it. Just boot your phone in flashmode (volume down and usb connecting, run flashtool, click the flash button, choose flashmode and choose a stock rom (which you must download before and copy as .ftf file in the folder firmware in flashtool folder, or type the button device, checkdevice updates, choose your device and download a appropriate stock rom ), then reboot, root yout device again with easyroottool or newroot, reboot in recovery and flash a custom rom. I think it should be possible.

Hi guys,
My C1905 stopped working yesterday. When I'am trying to turn it on by pressing power button, it vibrates once and screen remains black. I tried to repair it using PC Companion. I can't, when i'm entering flashmode, pressing Volume Down and then connecting device to PC, LED becomes green but PC can't recognize my phone. I'm trying this also using Flashtool. The same effect. Bootloader is locked, i've never modified my ROM. Fastboot is working.

At first make sure you have installed flashtool drivers.
remove the battery & wait for 1 min then insert. open flashtool selct flashmode select ftf file. wait it will ask you to connect your mobile to pc. Then Connect your mobile to pc while pressing the volume down button. thats all.

Alter connecting to PC, the light becomes red for about one second or less, then turns into green and stays that way, even if i disconnect my phone, light keeps staying green untill i remove bariery.
your device is not hard bricked. because it is vibrating & led is working. you can solve the problem by flashing ftf with flashtool. try again in another pc

Hi there,
I've done this numerous times and various machines.
Unfortunately my devices on/off button is broken and when the battery is low and the phone shuts down I need a PC to reboot the device by using "fastboot reboot."
Works on 4 different machines, except for my homebase PC. *Sigh* :crying:
In a command window fastboot responds with "waiting for device"..... Opening the Flashtool, it recognizes the device and tells me that it is in the fastboot mode. To my surprise there is no button in Flashtool that says reboot or a chance to issue commands to the phone...... so frustrating.
Any idea of how I can get this to work? Here is what I will not do: Re-Install Windows.
Here is what I tried: Re-Installing the driver numerous times, Flashtool recognizes the device.
How can that be? Makes no sense to me at all....
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks
James

Which driver install method do you use? I think Flash tool driver exe is best, and make sure to install fastboot, flash mode, and device specific, (Z1c is 'Rhine'). It's strange that Flash tool would recognize device in fastboot mode, but fastboot wouldn't...
Anyway, an alternative would be to mod system ui to include power button on navbar. Not hard to do. Let me know if you want to try.

Hi Levone,
yeah, I did exacly that. Use Flashtool and then install fastboot, flash mode and the Z1C Drivers..... funny it workes smooth under Windows 7 but not at all under Windows 10 (different partition). I had the hope it goes smooth in Win10 which would suffice for me..... although I'd like to have it running in my home OS Win7x64.
Ur UI looks nice, although I dunno what help it would provide me if the phone is down

Right - I just thought that if you at least gave yourself a reboot option while phone was up, you could avoid some of the power-downs. I guess you could do thebsame with an app...
Also, might be possible to re-map and make a different button power.

Is there a way to re-calibrate the battery so that it at least shows 20% of power and not 50% ?
Besides: How can I "avoid some of the power-downs" with a reboot?!
But. . . . . . . There are buttons in Flashtool to do what you want

What about the Fastboot Toolbox in Flashtool ?
Just in case you didn't notice 9 buttons you can push with a mouse to make your xperia do just about anything fastboot can do without ever having to touch a keyboard or a button.
