What have you done before? Have you tried to install a custom rom? But that's no problem, first you've to reflash the firmware, by doing this:
Download flashtool (can be found in dev section)
Download the firmware .587 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24467321&postcount=1)
Install flashtool
Put the downloaded ftf file into the firmware folder of flashtool (C:\Flashtool\firmwares)
Then start flashtool, click at the flash button, choose the firmware, check "No final verification" and click on Ok
Follow the instructions
If the firmware have been successfully flashed, turn your phone on
Optional: Then you can root it again and install CWM if you want
When you've got a question, just post it :good:
can you please advice how do i update my firmware from .431 to .587?

Hello, I recently rooted my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S, everything was working fine.
So I decided to install a custom ROM ( Jelly Sandwich )
but after the installation, my device is stuck on the Sony logo, I can't even access flashmode to flash it back. Please help! Thank you.
I've got the exact same problem!
You are stuck in bootloop you either have to reflash the stock rom with flashtools or if you have open bootloader using fastboot install custom kernel.
I have never managed to get this room working on my phone without using custom kernel.
I no longer have this Rom but use pureness Rom on stock kernel without issues.

If anyone doesn't have a better idea, you will probably have to repair from PCC.

It wont detect it. Go to update and when it tells you no device detected, click repair. When it prepares the firmware and asks you to connect it, hold vol down while plugging it in. IIRC that's how I did it.
PS: it'll get wiped

i have exactly same problem but different xperia phone the thing is i havent back it up is there some way to back up before i try ur method because
i want all my app data and apps installed because i dont know what i had installed in the first place.
plz help i will really appreciate it
P.S. i have my whole life on there :crying:
In the last time the phone booted ADB was enabled, then you should be able to do the following adb commands while in the bootloop:
Code:
adb pull /data/app .\app
adb pull /data/data .\data
adb pull /sdcard .\sdcard
Then you flash it in repair mode through SUS or PC Companion, after that enable ADB and do the following commands, but make sure your working dir is the same used during adb pull, otherwise it'll fail:
Code:
adb push .\app /data/app
adb push .\data /data/data
adb push .\sdcard /sdcard
If ADB wasn't enabled, then you will need Flash Tool and a FTF file for Xperia M, choosing to flash only /system partition should make it work again with minimal data loss (any app/mod that modified the /system partition will be lost)

Thats probably because you are using the wrong boot image file of CWM. make sure you have the proper file i.e for the proper firmware and redo what you already know update and flash boot
Hi guys, please help, I have a simmilar problem.
I have (successfully) rooted my phone while leaving bootloader unlocked, but than I've realized that I have to unlock it in order to install CM11.
I have followed the instructions on SE folder and got the message that bootloader is successfully unlocked.
After that, the phone enters a bootloop every time I try to turn it on. Then, I've instaled CWM using flashtool and boot.img from CM11(kernel)?
Maybe the last one was bad idea, but I wanted to try to simply install new rom and see if it will help.
But I've stopped to ask for advice, is that the right thing to do or something else?
edit:
Because I've instaled CM11's boot.img(kernel) I don't know if I can simply use PC companion repair? And if I use PC companion what will happen with my root? And is it safe just to try to continue with installing CM11?

Do you fixed the bootloop after unlocking bootloader?
Or maybe you used an invalid cwm.

Don't update using pcc or ur phone will brick. Just download the 4.3 Ftf and flash via flashtool. Then flash cwm kernel for cm11 then flassh cm11 rom.
Or if u can access cwm of cm11 wipe data cache and flash cm11 rom.

If you use this method, you will lose your settings and personal apps and data.
you've been warned.
Download Flashtool, and the firmware(ftf). 15.5.a.1.5, its available on XDA.
Install Flashtool, run it. On first run it will download a list of devices from GitHub. Then install drivers from Flashtool/drivers folder. select Xperia M (nicki), flash, and fastboot drivers.
Run Flashtool again, select the lightening symbol on top. select flash mode.
Select the ftf file(firmware) downloaded.
It will prepare the files then will ask you to connect the device.
Press volume down button pressed and connect the device to PC.
It will install the frimware.

I don't know what caused the bootloop. Thanks for pcc info, **** I'd never say that would cause brick
Anyway, I've just flashed original rom again, than cwm for cm11 and cwm11. Now it's fine.

3) Download the .FTF file of your Phone. Google it u"ll find it in no time
4)Then open Flashtool and Connect your Phone in Flashmode Mode ( by holding Volume Down button ,check for ur phone )
5) Search for the .FTFfile u"ve downloaded , Do check Wipe cache and data checkboxes and then click Flash, plz wait for the Flashtool to detect and prepare your files for Flashing
That's it , Now your Phone will work like never before
Plz tell me if it worked or not coz it worked for me and i am sure it will work for u too. i use Sony Xperia M Dual C2004

Hi!
After installing xposed and Wifi Hack for the google play to work on reverse tethering. I used the update/install function on framework pannel. After it the phone simply rebooted itself and now it stops on the boot animation. On the middle of the screen there these color blury lines. PC doesn't recognize the phone. It will charge up the battery but system doesn't even see the phone. (I am using Win7 and a stock rom 4.1.2 JB)
Just reinstall stock firware via flashtool or via sony update service

Your phone is not breaked i think it's just a problem with the rom, you can reflash the current rom (wipe data & everything). If it's important to you to keep the current rom and if you have unlocked Bootloader and have Recovery, then go to the Recovery and flash Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip located in Internal SD root.

If you already unlocked Bootloader, you can flash a CWM integrated stock kernel from here and flash it via Flashtool or fastboot, then turn on the phon and when LED turns on press Vol+ side buttons to turn the LED blue, then select "Install from Zip" and select Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip . then reboot and thats it!

Flashtool doesn't have Xperia M in “Flashtool-drivers”
Bro in the flashtool driver installer just select the flashmode drivers and xperia p,xperia u drivers because you won't find xperia m drivers in that.

Hello Abrakader225,
the easiest way to fix this is to reflash the phone using Sony Update Service or you can use Flashtool to flash a firmware file.
You can find flashtool at this url:
http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
Simply install it and after that go to the drivers folder of Flashtool and install the Fastboot, Flashmode and device specific drivers. After you've done that, download this FTF file and put it in Flashtools firmware folder:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701246
Then open Flashtool and press the bolt, and then pick Flashmode and select the firmware file, then press flash and put your phone in Flashmode.
I hope that my answer helped you and I hope that you'll get your phone up and running soon, have a great day!

Actually it does, they are listed as "Common drivers Nicky board". It should be the 11th selection down.
if you install the latest flashtool, actually there is xperia m ss and xperia m dual driver:laugh:

You in locked or unlocked bootloader ? If you still locked you can try to flash with PC companion. But if you in unlocked bootloader you must know are your .ftf file that have you downloaded before isn't corrupt . I suggest to redownload that file and re flash again with flashtool using flashmode bro. But if you're .ftf file isn't corrupt just keep connection USB must stable for this flash bro, because if isn't Stable that can't make broke this flash from flashtool I guest so. Try it first ya:thumbup:
