Guys, I am in desperate need of help to resolve my issue.
I have a T-Mobile Sony Xperia Z3 (D6616). Last night I went to flash Existenz Y in XZ Dual Recovery and when I rebooted the phone does not respond to anything. The ONLY thing I can do is hold down volume down and power and it boots up in the Android recovery screen, but any executed command here the phone just turns itself off. If I put the phone to charge the red LED comes on and the phone just vibrates on and off continuously.
The problem I am having is that for whatever reason the FTF stock file is not showing up in Flash tool. I can't drag it into the flash tool window, and using Xperim in flash tool when I find my model and click on the file nothing happens.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything. I have the stock FTF on hand, as well as the XZ dual recover file, and the existenxz Y .zip file. I just can't for the life of me get flash tool to populate the FTF file in the window when I go to flash?
I have tried using PC companion to fix/repair the phone as well. I connect the phone and it recognizes it but when I click to fix it and the window pops up asking to connect your phone and hit ok, i hit ok and the window just flashes and stays in place. I do nopt know what to do anymore and been without my phone for a day now already. Just need to figure out why the FTF is not showing in flash tool.
Thanks
Edit: Phone was rooted with kingroot, then Supersu was installed to replace kingroot. Root was verified. I am aware that this doesn't unlock the boo tloader on this phone.
I was able to use Flash tool on my Macbook Pro. For whatever reason in windows it's not recognizing the drivers or the stock ROM. So I rooted the Phone again with kingroot, after installing stock ROM, then installed Supersu, then installed XZ Dualrecovery. Wiped the phone, and for the second time installed existenz Y on the phones internal memory. Selected it in recovery, installed it. When In went to reboot the phone it did the same thing again. Not sure why Exiztenz Y is not working for me........
Edit: I restored my Windows laptop to factory settings and re-installed flashtool and now it's working.

Recently I updated my Live w/ Walkman to the 4.1.B.4xx (I think is it), and it worked normally.
Today I tryed to update to the 4.1.b.587 (I think is it), but now it wont start. Just the green led flashes. I tryed with another batery, I've tryed to install a ROM via FlashTool, but nothing worked. I have already searched other posts, but nothing could help me.
What should I do? Should I reclaim the warranty?
PS: The problematic update was done with the PC Companion, so, I think the best way to proceeed is the warranty. But, I had rooted it on the 4.1.B.4xx... It could give me a problem?
Sorry for bothering. I solved the problem! Glad to the user "someguyfromhell" who created this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792
If you had unlocked bootloader and did OTA(Over the Air) update, then you probably ended up with a dead phone, aka brick. Don't worry, it is not completely bricked, still can be saved!
Download UnbrickingXperia2011.zip file from this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792).
Unpack the .zip file and place the .ftf file in Flashtool\firmwares folder.
Open Flashtool.
Get your phone to flashmode, make sure it is turned off, press down Volume DOWN button and connect USB cable.
In Flashtool, click the lightning button, pick Flashmode and choose the Xperia_2011_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file.
Let Flashtool finish.
Install stock firmware and kernel to your phone.
Remove USB cable from your phone and start your phone.

So I rooted my Xperie E C1505 and installed Chainfire3d , thinking nothing bad was going to come out of it, and when I installed some package on Chainfire3d, ignoring the warning, my phone is now stuck in Bootloop!
Just now, I unrooted my phone using KINGO Android ROOT, but this hasn't brought me anywhere I have Flashtool and I downloaded a 4.11 Xperia E firmware and it is in the "firmware" folder. I attempted to flash my ROM and it was going fine until it asked me to connect device in Flashmode. I installed Flashmode and Fastboot drivers and I connected my phone, but only the green LED came up on the phone and nothing happened
I have no clue now so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Open flashtool,select firmware.
Untick everything except wipe data.
Flash.[Will take some time]
A dialog box will pop up saying connect to flashmode.
Power off mobile.
Press the volume down button while connecting phone via usb.
Phone will get detected,and then a firmware shall be flashed.
[Have you installed adb drivers?]
I downloaded ADB-USB drivers but when I open it in WinRAR, it's a .inf file so I dont know what to do

Dude if you haven't unlocked your Sony Xperia Phone's bootloader you can repair your phone with Sony Update Service (SUS) software.
You just need to be in the working flashmode and else all work will be handled by that software.. from downloading the firmware of your phone to flashing it and then you will get your phone up to date working with the latest firmware.

Hey,
I've got a serious problem with my Xperia U and I'm after twelve hours of trying to gifure it out, so I think I've passed more obvious solutions.
OK, so... I tried to unlock bootload (which I did) and root my phone via flashtool using some .tft file from xda. I think I've checked if this system is for mu phone and it was certainly for my soft version (6.1.1.B.10). So, I load this .tft file into flashtool, connect my phone as it tells me, the file uploads just fine, I plug out my phone, try to boot it and it doesn't respont. Since then I've tried to upload few .tft files (.10, .100, .54), to some of them my phone would respond at all (when booted it only vibrated), to some of them the phone would boot, but the touchscreen wouldn't work. In this case I'd have "POWER OFF" and "USE PHONE" on my screen and my side buttons would work (I could block my phone and take photos for example).
So, I've tried:
- flashing several times
- using official software from Sony (PC Companion and EMMA)
- using cmd to fastboot recovery.img - I failed to find recovery.img though.
Any suggestions?
I tried to put AOSP 5.1 from FXP in my phone, and my cellphone bricked. It wont turn on, it keeps the Sony Logo 2 seconds. It haven't connection with flashtool. Please Help me.
Hi. Can you give me more information what you did exactly step by step. So maybe i can help you. My E3 was bricked too. I found a solution. But i need more information.
Flash stock rom it'll unbrick it

Thank you answer back! I did exactly the following:
The model is my Xperia E3 D2212 dual sim.
- Unlocked the bootloader, :laugh:
- CWM installed a custom recovery, :laugh:
- I reinstalled the original rom, :laugh:
- I made a backup of the entire system using CWM.
And everything went super normal way, without complications.
The mistake was when he wanted to installing a custom ROM called "AOSP_L_MR1_150718_flamingo" because I found out later that he had not read that it was for ANOTHER XPERIA as follow the you tube tutorial . The ROM's for another Xperia, if I remember correctly.
After doing the installation process of the new AOSP ROM, the phone is less than a minute on the logo of SONY XPERIA down with, looped, can not enter the bootloader, and no longer recognizes the PC. I can not recognize it at FlashTool. I think that's all. :crying:
I greatly appreciate your attention.
I ended up editing this text in the google translator, then I'm sorry, if you are not very good.
Thank you

Could you help me? I can not make the pc recognize him ... He barely turns on and off since. The PC Companion software tells recognize it, but when you are installing the software says "it is not possible for this phone is changed." I can not scessar the bootloader does not give time and it shuts down.
Thanks, my error was with the fastboot driver and adb in flashtool. The Windows drivers wasn't been recognized, I've to install the drivers, all of they. After this, I Flashed the Stcok ROM, installed SuperSU and Restored the backup, everything works fine and fluid now. Thanks, anyway, for encouraging me.
I flashed my D2203 back to factory rom yesterday using Flashtool (flashtool.net/downloads.php) on Windows 7 PC.
How did I do it:
1) Install flashtool
2) Install Flashtool-drivers.exe from flashtool subfolder /drivers and select flashmode and fastboot drivers.
3) Run Flashtool and open XperiFirm (letters XF on logo)
4) Select Xperia E3 Flamingo -> proper D22** you have -> Market -> and select latest release below PayPal logo
5) Press "Download" and wait for download and unpacking
6) Switch off phone (if power on/off button does not respond then open back cover and push "OFF" by using pen)
7) Press and hold volume down button and connect phone to PC using original USB cable
8) Using Flashmode flash device
So i've broke my phone by editing build.prop ... i don't have any recovery, usb debugging AS I REMEMBER WAS ENABLED and my phone is just bootlooping connected on my laptop, it detects it but i can't access files, nor does adb find my phone, or pc companion or any other android file manager . My question is: CAN I FIX IT PLEASE? I've downloaded the original firmware and got out the build.prop the original one, but how can i place it in?!
EDIT: I think i found a fix, sony pc companion actually started to work now after i "entered recovery mode" after a few reboots trying to hold volume down there is no logo, black screen but the phone is like turned on, and it detected my phone and now i'm trying to install my software
If this is going to work, can somebody point out to me some recovery mod and a fast ROM?
