If bootloader locked, flash using Sony Update Service.
If bootloader unlocked, try to flash again with flashtool or flash a kernel with CWM using fastboot and flash a ROM in CWM recovery.

Just a note, simlock.ta is ignored always and it has nothing to with phone's firmware. This is not the cause to your phone being bricked.
Emma tool by Sony

for unblocked bootloader use Emma flash tool from Sony
Hi,
I have a stock unrooted ZL.
When this update came out a couple of weeks ago, I tried to OTA but it kept on failing (always during the part after it restarts the phone and the green ROM flash bar starts to flash).
So I forgot about it for a week or 2, and stopped attempting to OTA.
Today, I wanted to try again, so I went inside my phone to the software update, and it said "Computer Required".
Thus, I've installed PCC (Sony PC Companion software) and attempted to update - the preparation phase completed successfully, but when the update phase started it shut down the phone to attempt the update, then I got an update failed error followed by a retry button on which I tried to click - it just gave me another "can't connect to server to download the software" error.
I finally stopped trying to click retry because it was not responding; PCC has gone back to it's main menu without giving me another chance to retry, now it does not recognize my phone, and the phone keeps restarting with the message "The software update failed. Make sure the phone is connected to the computer and try again".
I don't care if I need to reformat my phone using PCC, but how do I backup my internal storage? I just cannot lose what I have inside.
I would like to kindly request the best solution you could think of that could fix this without loosing my internal storage data.
Please help me
Which rom was on your phone before brick?? Stock 4.4.2? You can try to flash 4.4.2 stock firmware using flashtool but be sure to uncheck the three wipe on the right.
In this way your phone would start and you will can access to internal storage...make a backup of all your data and than flash new 4.4.4 stock firmware, and this time check all three wipe on flashtool... Good luck
Edit: of course if pcc has wiped all data during that failed operation your data are lost forever...

Thanks for your fast reply mate!
I have stock 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 I'm not sure actually (I have the last update prior to 10.5.A.0.283), where do I get the stock ROM which is customized to my country?
Also, If I already had stock version higher than 4.4.2? which version should I flash?
Thanks!!!

if you received ota update of .283 your phone would be on .230.
I don't think you are on a stock version higher than 4.4.2, your phone is bricked during update from .230 to .283, so you must restore 4.4.2 system.
which model do you have? C6502, C6503 or C6506? you can find all stock ftf browsing XDA ZL forum, here are some link:
[STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia ZL (C6503) 10.5.A.0.230 Generic DE
[STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia ZL (C6506) 10.5.A.0.230 Generic US
[STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia ZL (C6502/C6503) Android 4.4.4_10.5.1.A.0.283
anyone know how to fix or restore to stock rom? i think i have my phone bootloop, after updating i cant switch on the phone, no vibration when pressing the power button.
thanks

Thanks, I already found those, I was asking actually for different customization, but never mind - it's not important anyway.
I actually was not sure before you replied if I was on 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 so I tried to flash the .283 - it got past all flash phases except for system.sin which it got stuck in (more than 4 hours have passed with no progress), then I tried again and the same thing.
While trying the above, I read your reply, and then understood that I need to flash the .230 and not the .283. So I tried, and not it did not get past the kernel.sin flash phase (which one of the first files - please see the log below).
Now I don't understand how come for the .283 it did got past the kernel.sin, and reached up to system.sin (only system.sin and 3 more .sin files were left to flash when I tried to flash .283, so why when I tried to flash .230 as you see in the log below, I don't get past the kernel.sin?)

Update:
There's probably no problem - apparently it's just slow (14 minutes for kernel.sin), NOW it did reach system.sin, I'll update if it's still stuck but it seems to be very slow, is this normal?

Update:
There's probably no problem - apparently it's just slow (14 minutes for kernel.sin), NOW it did reach system.sin, I'll update if it's still stuck but it seems to be very slow, is this normal?

the stock FTF is about 960Mb so it's normal that takes more time but usually I flash my device in about 8min...
i don't know because in your case takes more time, let do it and check if your data are still here...

open flashtool, select flash, select the FTF from your hard drive and wait until it ask you to connect phone in flash mode,
then hold down VOL- button and connect phone to pc...if nothing happens probably the phone is hard bricked and in this case I don't know how you can resolve the problem...maybe battery issue

So something is definitely wrong here... should I try on a different computer?
It's still ongoing... maybe it's because the last flash attempts and initial PCC update gone wrong?

are you using latest flashtool?
be sure to close pcc during flashing and be sure that phone drivers pc are correct, use driver package inside flashtool folder.
which ftf are you flashing?

I'm already using the latest flashtool version 0.9.18.2. (Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde)'
Of course I made sure that PCC is no running. But it is installed so I'll have the drivers for my phone.
Also already installed the driver package inside flashtool drivers folder - I've installed only the Flashmode and Fastboot drivers.
I'm trying to flash the following:
[STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia ZL (C6503) 10.5.A.0.230 Generic DE
Filename: C6503_10.5.A.0.230_Generic DE.ftf
Bytesize: 1,008,463,406
I've also removed the Wipe APPSLOG and Wipe DATA checks so I wont lose any data (left the CACHE checked).
Thanks for your help mate. I really appreciate it.
Any idea?

Update:
I kept retrying, now the flashtool does not recognize the device after it perpares the flash files... the windows that says to connect the device just stays there, and there's a sound of usb connection and then disconnection, followed by the red light on my ZL turned on.
What shall I do now?

Maybe you are right, it is battery error. In flashtool dialog box, it always says phone disconnected.
Thanks for ur replies. I need to go to sony service center then

Maybe battery issue in your case too or your battery is discharge... Leave the phone connected to the power cord (at wall and not pc usb) for at least one hour and then retry...

When I try to charge the phone with my original charger and cable directly to the wall (and not pc), I get a bootloop with SONY logo and the following message:
The software update failed.
Make sure that your phone is connected to the computer and try again.
I'm not sure it is charging in this situation, is it?
Hi all
this is my first post hope it is in the right place ...
so i have a sony arc s device ... i used to have a custom rom on it ... however i wanted to restore the stock rom i have downloaded the files for bother GB and ICS ... when trying to install the ICS through the Flashtool i received an error so i extracted the files and tried to flash the system.sin file through fastboot and it comes with an error that the file has large size ... i tried using the -S argument but still no luck ... did anyone encounter any problems like this ?
and is it possible for someone to point me to a stable custom Rom that i might use ( Last one was very slow )
Note : i installed the GB Rom and it is working and didnt have any errors installing through the flashtool .
hope someone can help me
thanks in advance
Hi,

The recent Flashtool are not compatible with Xperia 2011 devices.

Are you sure you ICS rom is not corrupted ?
Check this : All Stock Firmwares for Xperia Arc S
Read this tutorial to help you : [TUTORIAL] HOW TO FLASH STOCK ROMs WITH FLASHTOOL
As @M0umou said, you will need to get an older version of Flashtool from here (Windows | Linux | Mac) and continue on. I've got a .ftf of the Arc S .587 on my Google Drive so in case you can't flash with yours just download it from here.
