Hello!
I got a XZ2 Compact and cant unlock the bootloader. It can be unlocked and ADB recognizes my phone when typing in "fastboot devices". I also installed the Google USB Drivers and the Xperia USB Drivers. Still when typing adb I get the list of devices attached and its empty.
Now after I got my unlock code I cannot use it, I always get:
FAILED (remote: 'Command did not succeed')
fastboot: error: Command failed
So anything that I can do?
I tried the Sony Flashtool, but the XZ2 is not in the list of the devices in the software database.
I see there is a driver update package, but its from 2014.
Nevertheless when I press on the lightning button and set Flashmode then I see Device X10 Version 1 Branding BLRelock. But this is then the wrong driver, because I X10 is the wrong device I imagine.
Of course its possible to download the USB Driver for XZ2. But then where do I paste them in the Flashtool and how do I choose them inside of Flashtool?

Can I still use this guide for installing fastboot? http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f8/adb-fastboot-for-rookies-18124/
This fastboot seems sophisticated to me and I haven't figured it out yet as of now. Thanks for the reply.
To use fastboot, the device bootloader should be unlocked, sony ericsson has a developer site offering unlock codes for free! Once unlocked you can apply fastboot commands just like adb commands with phone connected in fastboot mode(blue led light connected to pc) by connecting arc to PC holding menu key.
http://androidadvices.com/how-to-unlock-sony-ericsson-xperia-arc-bootloader/
To use fastboot commands be sure to download the android SDK and extra tools from the SDk package! probably directed as x:/program files/android/android-sdk/platform-tools/fastboot
Hello
When I try to install android.winusb.inf as the driver for my Android device in fastboot mode, it tells me the file is not compatible with my OS.
The android.winusb.inf is installed with the sdk manager when installing the google usb driver. I want to assign the drivers of fastboot to these because I want to unlock the boatloader of my device ( sony ericson xperia play r800i)
Where can I find the right file? ( one that is compatible) or are there other sollutions?
thanks in advance
Pazy!
1. Go to Sony's site and on the page where is tutorial for unlocking bootloader, there will be a link for fastboot driver
Or
2. Download and install Flashtool, go to installed folder, there should Be program named "flashtool-driver.exe". Run it and choose Xperia Play
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
I fixed it somehow, thanks anyway! I flashed the kernel, but now I'm unable to enter the twrp recovery mode

You haven't unlocked bootloader. Check the tutorials available on how to unlock.

Hey guys,
first of all I have to say im german, so my english isn't the best.
I tried ti root my Sony Xperia ZL with instructions for a Xperia Z. I try to translate these into english:
1 and 2 : blah blah, look if the Bootloader unlock is allowed
3-9 goto “unlockbootloaderdotsonymobiledotcom” and follow the steps to get your unlock code.
10 download Android SDK, install USB Driver
11 open cmd and use command: “fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version” to see the phone is connected properly
12 use command “fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY”
and now the important part:
13 Download "Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img” and “Z_DooMLoRD_insecure_FW-350.img” safe under platform-tools
14 open cmd and use command “fastboot flash boot Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img”
and now the next step should be disconnect the device from the PC and wait for the message on the screen: "restart the device in 10 seconds" and then hold the volume up + power button until it vibrates 3 times.
But no message appears, I can't start the phone and it is useless now
Fortunatly I managed to do a hard reboot and get the phone in the fastboot mode again so there might be hope.
I guess the problem is I used the file for Sony Xperia Z (“fastboot flash boot Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img”). So maybe I can just use the right file now.
I really need help guys, it would be so good if someone can help. I don't have the money to buy a new phone.

UPDATE: I tried some things and now my phone is in a bootloop. It shwos SONY and then it restarts.
Hey,
I have in hands xperia m but software is completely broken.
Xperia is unusable every application is crashing nonstop cant even access it through adb cause settings application is broken too. Whats worse I cant reset the phone cause even when I go to settings phone just wont react - every time when its reseted every single setting is also reseted. I had in my mind to install app from google play to reset phone but I cant get to it cause everything is crashin... Next problem - when I tried to flash it (unlock bootloader etc.) I got okay message that it went through problem is emma flashtool will still be saying that its locked. When I tried to use xperia software to repair it - wont go through either Ive been getting error message. I cant flash anything including recovery (When I try to flash new software I get cache.sin problem in flashtool). Cant even enter this code -*#*#7378423#*#* - when I do nothing happens...it just refreshes and no menu will pop up
I would appreciate any help, cause im stuck at dead point and I dont have any idea what to do now. Is it possible that somehow tmobile locked bootloader and I cant do anything with it ?
