okay.to start off,i've been following this guide here to unlock my bootloader(*i dint know about xda before,as i see xda guide are way easy-,- ). so everything went fine and yes my XL are "Bootloader unlock allowed". i have followed every single step on that site and at the last step where you need to put your unlock boot loader key,this is where i think i've may screwed it up. it doesn't show any successful note or anything so i thought it was done but then again i've checked my bootloader status and it still remain the same as "Bootloader unlock allowed" which it suppose to be "Bootloader unlock done".
Okay that wasn't the worst part. so as i have failed, i decide to google about this thing and found out this guide here. so i've followed it,right up until when i need to connect my phone through BLU. this PART where i go seriously INSANE. it just that nothing happen. i've managed to enter fastboot before with sony guide but this i just dont know whats wrong with it. so ive checked up about it's and notice its probably my driver problem. so i've found this here go through with it and yet failed again. -,-
OKAY THIS IS THE WORST PART. so as i've bumped at failure and decide to give up on this thing then i've notice that my phone cannot be charged when it is off. really bump about this. i know im a newbie and i know my place.but please anyone help me on this. i dont care about unlocking my bootloader anymore, i just want my normal phone back where i can charged it when its off.

Firstly I welcome you at xda forum. Keep your calm. It will be fixed.
Now then, firstly you need to install DRIVERS for your device.
Secondly you will need to FLASH FTF firmware using FLASHTOOL after downloading FTF.
Thirdly, you need to be patient as it will take a bit of time for you as you are new to all this.
Install drivers from :
HERE
Secondly download FTF firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502970
Download flashtool :
http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
Next thing you need to do is FLASH FTF to your phone.
You must paste your FTF file in your flashtool/firmwares/HERE
Next you need to turn off your phone and then hold volume DOWN key and at the same time connect your phone via USB cable to the PC.
Next , open flashtool and install FTF using the RIGHT file you put in the folder. Don't install file from Xperia x8 or something that is already present.
Flash..
You are good to go! Good Luck

but i think my driver are good,and flashtool can read my device when its on just that the problem is now,my phone cant be connected to pc when its off. so i cant flash anything atm.plus i cant charge it when it off.
i keep on thinking that maybe i've just softbricked my phone
thanks a bunch thou for your help. but i think theres nothing i can do here.i've give up.plus the phone are working fine anyway,just that i cant flash anything thou. which is sucks but i'll manage it thou,somehow
Did you press vol down for flashmod and vol up for fastboot?
Open flashtool, don't click on any button just push vol down and push usb cable, then you will see if flashtool recognize your phone or will ask for drivers.

yes,i have done that 1000x times,and still nothing seems to work.i've even waited almost 1/2 an hour as i think it maybe take some time to load up but then again...nothing
i think the main problem is why my phone cannot be charged when it was off. as it does fine when i first got it? this is the real question because i think if your phone cant recognized the usb input while it was off then how the hell it gonna be discovered into flashmode or even flashboot. this is whats bugging me.
p.s,yes i have tried to flash with other computer,and still got the same result.
Try install adb driver with flastool drivers..you can find it under drivers folder via flashtool
Your bootloader is not unlocked and you can give it to service without problems.Maybe usb is broken. Use it till phone shut down, go to service and tell them that it don't want to charge.

I know there are probably lots of threads about this, but I couldn't find one about E3 since it's a relatively new phone, but to point now
So I tried to update my Xperia E3 to it's latest firmware via the Sony pc companion(it was the only option) and during the update ,once it was downloaded it prompted to connect the phone through the USB cable, once done it began installing the update but when it was like at 80-85% it showed an error saying that internet connection isn't available and gave two options to either retry or cancel, now the internet was just working fine, I checked google, Youtube everything and it was working, but every time I hit retry it gave the same option ,so eventually I canceled the update,
Now the phone was switched off so I tried switching it on and it just froze at the sony boot logo screen, restarting with power button+volume up only restarts it to the same situation(stuck at logo screen), I did look up for a solution but couldn't find one that fit,
Of course I did switch it off using the off button at the back of phone(under the back cover), and I know about Sony Update service but that's no longer supported(it required the phone in off state), pc companion can't detect an off phone and when it does it starts phone to boot frozen screen and fails at detect step, another thing I found was a custom tool(possibly just SUS) that could flash a firmware in an off phone but however there is no firmware available for my version, since I live in India, so there's that , any help is appreciated,
A few things:
-The battery was at 91% when update started
-There was no root attempt etc made on phone, it was complete stock
-I did update the firmware once earlier but just from the phone it was a 2 mp update, no pc
-When I started this update there was already a 29 mb something update available without pc, and that's pretty much all, like I said any help is appreciated
Don't worry buddy, your phone doesn't die yet. Actually, PC Companion (PCC) has repair phone/tablet function.
Open PCC, click Start button in Support Zone, then continue to click Start button under Phone/Tablet Software Update and you will see "Repair your phone/tablet". Just follow its instruction. remember using the hard reset button under the back cover to turn off the device first and don't turn it on.
Anyway, what is your model? d22xx? i can't provide the firmware unless I know exactly the model.
It worked

Hello, my device is D2212 and I have similar problem.
I've rooted and unlocked bootloader using this method from XDA forum to root Xperia E3. However after unlocking bootloader and root my device my PC and my notebook doesn't recognize my device to transfer data or access data of cellphone. It keeps in charging mode.
Today it was really weird and lagging way too much so I tried to reset to factory setting. After that my device does not start android it keep stuck on blue screen right after display of Xperia and android.
I tried this method you suggested of PC Companion but it does not work since PC does not recognize my device anymore since rooting.
I need help here, please.
O just bought this device last week.
Thanks in advance.

ihad used that trick after whole day research , I can conclude S1tools does not support 2012 upgrade model, I received error as ID HASH IS NOT SUPPORTED,
however my bootloder is unlocked, and I hav unlocked code also, and also phone is rooted ,
Yes this could work for us as we still doesn't have the preloader dump.
AFAIK there is not unbricking way for now.
Somewhere I read that pc companion could work with Q9008. Also worth to try with emma.
I want working on this to finalize the unbricking guide but will not be soon as I need my device for the rom port. When done I will work on this unbricking.
Also it is not a kernel problem. Your flash replaced s1 bootloader with a wrong one.
Good luck a be patient

Sorry for confusing :s
I think, today, there is no way.
You can try with the official emma flash tool or pc companion but I really doubt.

Not related with TA backup for now. You change your bootloader with a wrong one.
It is almost like if you flash the wrong bios on your mother board. You can't flash it again until someone find an 'electronic' way.
Give a try with pc companion or emma.

Pc companion is not reconize the fevice actually i explain what i idid,
I was flashing d6616 by flash tool
Firstly i unlock bootloder by sony , through unlock code they email then i rooted the device by kingo root n then flash accidently i chosse d6646 rom instead of d6616 rom then during flashing flashtool gives error at kernal.sin and after that device goesoff

Thats was the whole senrio by which my device brick so after whole story i really disappointed to know that my device is just use for paper weight... :crying:

You own a d6616? It have unlockable bootloader :s
Send it to repair center. No other choice.
And yes it is confusing, it say bootloader unlock after the fastboot command but it is not true.
@blackhawk_LA made some posts about D6616. Maybe he could help you.
I just post here to announce you the bad new your device is hardly softbricked.

Tanks buddy I am watching your thread, and also let me know when done,
Hi, I decided to post it here because it seems that anything I post on Xperia Ion forum is not read, it is inactive.
I already searched everywhere and I'm loosing my hopes. I'm trying to revive an Xperia Ion and this is what I get:
When I plug the phone in the wall charger the red led turns on for some minutes and then turns off.
The same happens when I plug on PC, when the led turns off it is detected as "Somc flash device" in windows device manager and this shows in flashtool:
INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
Nothing changes if I plug in pc with volume + or - pressed, it don't goes into fastboot or flashmode.
I hope you could help me. Thanks
dude i have the same problem as yours i have a z3 d6643 and i made a mistake when downloading the kernal the device loads normal flash mode and flashtools working! power button + volume down runs twrp but it no longer starts at sony black screen someone please help!

Same problem with an XZ, someone has a solution?
sometime Win recognize the device as QUSB_BULK
Hi everyone, im trying to downgrade my android to nougat and otw bricked the device. Im using flashtool to do this and the bad part is I forgot to turn on usb debug before. I tried using Xperia companion to fix this but and error came out saying "failure to get device info" kinda like. So is there any other way i can do this.
My phone is SOV35 au model with unlock bootloader not allowed but i flashed it to G8231 to unlock the sim. Any insight would really help on this. Thank you
First charge the phone.
Keep it switched off.
Here are the links
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xzs/how-to/oreo-xperia-xzs-g8232customized-ru1308-t3732394
There is a single sim.variant in he link too. Use Flashtool to flash these.
Start flashtool. Select appropriate firmware.
Click start flashing and then when it prompts.
Plug the cable in phone first and then pressing volume down plug it into PC. Wait until you see the green light in phone.
This should work.
