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.

I bought the Tipo purely to load my Android app onto it for testing from Flash CS5. I'm getting the error:
ABD could not find an Android device to connect to.
I found some info that shows you how to set the Android drivers for it, but it isn't working...
My system is Win7, 64bit
- turned on USB debugging in developer options
- plug phone into usb port
- device manager shows yellow exclamation mark next to 'Android' under 'Other devices' (good)
- navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Android_Drivers\android_winusb.inf
- I get the error: Windows was unable to install your Android. Windows could not find driver software for your device.
Anyone know of a way around this?
Thanks for your time and help.
Did you install Sony PC Companion? Try installing it then try again.
Sent from my ST23i
Thank you for that.
I had been clicking on the PC Companion set up that popped up when I connected the phone, but I see now it wasn't installing. Downloaded it from Sony, installed it, then selected 'install' on the phone when it prompted me about PC Companion. Didn't have to install any drivers - PC Companion did it all.
It's all working sweet.
Thought I'd wasted $150 buying the phone!!!!
Cheers mate.

i think you can install tipo drivers by going into settings ->development and check 'debugging mode'. After, connect to pc via usb and drivers should start installing
Actually drivers come in the flashtool package. After installing open c/flashtool/drivers (I'd you installed here). Then install the last 2 options (flashnode and fastboot)
which option i have to select during flash '' flash mode or fastbootmode''

If you're flashing firmware, always 'flashmode'.
The name is pretty self-explanatory. Flashing > Flashmode.
is there any way to revive from hardbrick
Only a Sony engineer or someone who knows a real lot about electronics in such a mobile can fix hard brick. Hard brick means that hardware is probably broken.
But does your phone show any sights of life? Like does the led work when you plug in the charger. Then your phone is probably not hard bricked.

Maybe try to "force" to install driver trough the Device Manager in Windows. I have Win 7 64-bit and it just would't autoinstall my device in fastboot mode. I downloaded the driver, found my device in Device Manager and right clicked and choosed Update Driver. Then I choosed the folder where I had saved the downloaded driver
---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------
I have a Sony Xperia Tipo dual (ST21i2) Android smartphone which I tried to instal CyanogenMod 10 on. I managed to unlock the device in fastboot mode (according to instruction on Sony webside) and tried to flash it, but I think that I didn't place all the right files in the right folders for flashing because according to the instruction the device should reboot after flashing, but it didn't. I waited for 15-20 minutes and nothing happened so I disconnected the device from my PC. Now the when try to turn on the device the led flashes red 3 timed, then a short pause and then again 3 red flashes and so on it loops forever. So it seems that it is not completely dead yet. When I connect the device to my computer it is not recognized. In fact, Windows does not see it at all so I can not use Sony Flash Tool. Can anyone help my how to finish te installation of CM10 on my device? I have understood that you can force Xperia Tipo to install system form SDcard. If it is true how do I do that? Which files should be put on the card and how to force boot from the SDcard?

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.

Thanx, Before this issue with my Xperia L I was using PC companion and I guess this already installed drivers but now neither PC companion/SUS nor flash is detecting my phone. I am using windows 8 currently but I also tried on windows 7 to install the drivers but no luck. My friend suggested that I need a boot loader as all the data in my Xperia L has been washed out due to bad flashing. In my country no boot loader device available for Sony Xperia 2013 models. Any alternate solutions?
Bootloader..?!! I think you don't have any kernel in your phone currently that's why it isn't recognizing your phone by the PC.. Try using SUS on Windows 7..make sure your driver's are installed properly.. Either through SUS or Flashtool..
If your phone is Not Recognized by Flashtool that means you don't have Required Drivers Installed. Use the Below method to Solve this Problem.
Open the folder /Flashtool/drivers & Install "ggsetup-2.2.0.11".
If Still after the Above Process Flashtool doesn't Recognize your Phone. Use this Method.
Open the /Flashtool/driver folder & Extract the "XXX_ADB_Driver.zip" anywhere on your PC/Mac/Linux. [ This Zip corresponds to your Phone Model. ]
Now Open "Device Manager" on your PC/Mac/Linux & find the device which is with an Exclamation mark on it. [ Make sure your phone is Connected to the PC ]
Right Click on that Device & Choose Update Driver.
Choose to find the Driver Manually.
Now Browse to the Folder where to have Extracted your Phone Model Zip File.
This will Install the Required Drivers on your Computer.
After that Open Flashtool Again & Try to Recognize your Device.
If Still you see any problem reply back for further assistance..

Hi pervenkal, try varunpilankar steps, I too faced this issue while flashing my Xperia L for the first time, 7 months ago. But it is most probably driver issue, during that time I tried lots of drivers even the one given with flashtool, but finally drivers from ADT bundle helped me.

The red blinking light sounds like your battery is low, I read about someone who had do e this not long ago. Couldn't boot tinto recovery because they had insufficient charge. Charge your phone on mains power for an hour, and then try flashtool again. But make sure you wipe everything.

First, Which phone you have, c1905 is Xperia M
Second, Flashing Xperia M ftf to Xperia L is a guaranteed brick ==
i don't think it can be fixed without a complate nand rewrite. just a assumption

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
