yes it can be fixed it, you just need to flash boot.img from latest cm12.zip just download it, if you already have it you just need to extract it with winrar and flash that kernel using flashtool in fastboot mode. first connect your phone in fastboot mode to your pc and open flashtool after that open the lightning icon and select fastboot mode, after that choose select kernel to flash and choose that boot.img from cm12. and wait it until finished. after that copy cm12.zip to your external storage and insert again your memory card to your phone and turn it on.
after sony logo is up hit vol up button until led is change from pink to blue and you will enter to cmrecovery. after that install cm12 file from that recovery after that do a wipe data and restart your device.
done
Have try

hmmm may be you should back to stock rom to boot up your phone, i think this will be resolved your problem. you need to download stock ftf rom for your device and try to flash with flashtool in flashmode mode and do a full wipe data and cache in flashtool option bro

Hello Guys, i have a huge problem.
I flashed kernel for Mango not for anzu. I mistakened the boot.img file and now my phone is stuck on boot screen.
Tried everything in forums and nothing works for me!
MY phone is rooted (or was, don't know what's now with the phone)
Was bootloader unlocked.
Everything was just fine, but wanted to get another Rom installed and did [Rom][WIP][JB4.2.2][Arc/S/Pro] Unofficial CM10.1 build 20130326, but installed the wrong boot.img
PC doesn't recognize my phone.
Can't get in CWM mode (
* My computer doesn't recognize the phone in fastboot mode (Entering by powering up and after pink led flash volume up)
In overall :
I got stuck black screen while booting, i guess 2nd boot screen
I get no logos, just black screen.
When adding USB and connecting to PC it shows just Green Led (it's fully charged)
Entering the Fastboot mode or CWM recovery mode (By powering up and after pink led flashes pushing volume up - it gives just a black screen and blue led (fastboot mode, i guess)
What could be the problem?
I've searched for answer about 2 days now, but no progress.
I'm desperate guys, HELP!

I know that with Flashtools in flashmode I can flash Frameworks i guess (.ftf files).
If there is another way to flash with flashmode, then please enlighten me

I want to have a ROM with .zip, but i'll try with .ftf firstly!

There is too many paragraphs!
How can I Change my Kernel, if I can't get in fastboot mode and in Recovery mode.
Only way I see is by flashmode option in Flashtools software.

Hi, I have the same problem and I followed your instructions but while the new firmware is installing from the sd card, the phone shut down.
It seems like it has no sufficient power to finish the operation. In fact I tried to plug the phone to charge the battery and that don't work...at least the led is not on (but I'm pretty sure it's not charging).
After that the only things I can do is to power on again and see the boot loop.
Any idea on how to solve?
Thanks.

Since you can actually enter the recovery i suggest that you go in manually and try to reset/wipe and see if it starts.

Ok then last thing that i can suggest before you send it in for repair is that you download a diferent firmware (diferent update.app file) and try to flash that. If it fails again then send it.

So I made a stupid mistake but know where. This is not my first time to flash roms and karnels, but don't know where did I go wrong...
So here goes the story:
I had Racing Bean for a while and then I decided to change so I wanted to try the new Kit Kat
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545367
First I went back to stock 0.587 (because I never did before) and then I forgot to install recoveryX.
After that I flashed the karnel (nAa karnel)
So now I can't go in to recovery to install the rom and wipe the system
I tried.
Volume Down
Volume Down + Home
Home + (Connecting the cable)
Volume Up + Connecting the cable
Maybe something more but can't remember
What should I do? Thanks in advance
ARC S (LT18i)
BTW: When the legacy logo loads a purple light blinks but nothing...
Well if you have flashed the kernel you should be able to boot to recovery... Turn on phone...as soon as logo comes keep pressing any button... The purple led will change to blue and it should take you to recovery...

Usually kernel is inside the Rom (zip file) when u download, u should go with that kernel for best compatibility.
copy the zip file to sdcard
extract the zip to get .img file, flash your device with that file.
enter the recovery and install the zip file u copied
wipe cache, data ...
install gapps if u want
wipe again
reboot

The problem is I can't enter the revovery mode, it's really strange..
The logo starts to load (vibrates) and the purple light blinks and it's gone, so now stuck again.....
Thank you all
Never had this case.... I will wait for a while because of the first boot but didn't have this problem before.....
BTW: I use the V. Down to go in recovery (CWM 5 installed before this!!)
EDIT:
1.1 (optional): If the device is not booting, reboot to bootloader again and run:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
Should I try this? One thing to check how do you go to bootloader on arc s (flashmod?)

remove batery after 10 seconds place it. now open flashtool and select correct firmware then flash. it shows preparing device. after 1 min it says to "connect phone in flash mode"
now only you have to connect your phone to pc it's important for bootloop devices.
press and hold volume down + connect usb

well make sure you install drivers for fast boot else it wont work
drivers are in flash tool folder C:\Flashtool\drivers in my case its here if you have used default settings look and install and select fastboot from list when installing
Download any ROM (Best is Cyongen or LiquidSmoooth)
Download a rom and boot your phone into fastboot mode and install .zip file.THAT'S IT :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:.Hit thanks button if I helped you
