Well I have the green LED but PC COmpanion doesn't find the phone. So how can it be found and completly wiped. I don't want to root or unlock!
I get a driver error in the windows configuration manager but I have adb installed for my Nexus One. In flashtool there is a drivers exe but here there is no tipo in it and when I try to install the other two fastboot and flashmode I think I get an error, too.
So how can I completly wipe that thing with the companion as mentioned here in the thread.

Can you download adb driver from adbdriver.com and check if the phone is detected (green check)?

OK. but then. I don'T know what my Firmware (or is it 11.0.a.4.25 which is nowhere in the flashtool thread to be found) is on the phone and also want to format and clear everything whats on it. All internal data (pictures etc.)

You can also use flashtool. Pick any firmware you want. But its easier using pc companion - repair. Just make sure the drivers are installed and the phone detected. The same also applies for flashtool.

switch off phone remove battery re insert battery then go in flashmode in flash tool select your xperia stock.ftf file ( Stock firmware ) then connect your device holding Volume down button until it recognises ur device

If the phone vibrates and shows 3 Green or Red LEDs it is hard bricked and sent it in to Sony for Repair

Sometimes that happens me but only remove the battery connect to pc ,insert the battery and the flash starts

Bootloop is normal after bootloader unlock, you need to flash the ftf rom there and then the FXP (kernel first) for example.

thanks for your answer, I already install flashtool drivers and since there, the phone in any mode says "USB device not recognized" before that I can put it in fastboot mode o just let it on and recognized like a storage device, now I'm searching gordons gate drivers I hope it works.

If gg gate drivers don't work try to go in fastboot mode and flash for example thunderzap kernel but before it put on your sd card a cm11 rom and flash it using recovery.

[Xperia J] Flash Mode + Fastboot = 'USB Device Not Recognized'

Hello Everyone, So i have a Sony Xperia J Unlocked Boot Loader + Custom MIUI Rom, I wanted to go back to stock rom, but when i use flashtool and place my device on flashmode a green LED indicates on my device like usual but on my pc screen it says ' USB Device not Recognized' so now i can't flash stock ftf, is there any other way to get to stock rom or any way to resolve this problem?
(I have a 64-Bit Windows 8.1 Laptop)

First select ftf that you want to flash on Flashtool, wait for pop-up window that tells to connect your phone than connect your phone. If you have drivers installed and disabled drivers verification it should work.
Good Luck

Thank you for your time & for looking into my case, However i've managed to solve the issue, It was due to a fault Data Sync Cable I simply used the one for my S4 and it worked as normal.
