Flash via flashtool

Don't worry just put your phone into FlashMode (Install the driver first, there is a small app inside the installation folder in flashtools which can help It's inside a folder called drivers)
Then put a 5.1.1 or whatever FTF you want and flash it using flashtools (Put the downloaded file into where Flashtools can see it usually at documents and then .flashtools and then firmware or something

Thank you for ur reply, yes bootloader was unlocked and I was trying to install the custom rom but after restarting my xperia L never started again. Black dead...no logo just red LED blinking and I tried key combination but nothing. To repair through sus and flash tool it should be recognized by the pc. Its being recognized as unknown device by pc and did try to install driver manually but no luck. In both sus and flash tool I found message no phone attached.
Plz guide me.

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..
Hit Thanks if I helped you..

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

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

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.

Don't connect your phone until and unless sus asks you to do that... Select your device then it will tell you when and how to connect your device.
i think it's HARD BRICKED, no boot logo, no three times vibration when trying to force turn off (POWER + VOL UP button), only red static light when charging both from pc or charger.
And sometimes i heard a sound when plugging the phone to pc, it's like my PC is trying to recognize the phone but always fail, i also heard the sound when trying to flash it using flashtool, Wmshua Perfect Brush, SUS, or PC Companion.

tried flashing 7.0, XZ now bricked

Hey,
I tried flashing 7.0 using flashtool, I do have some successful previous experience with flashtool, but my phone now seems to be bricked.
Try booting the phone and I get software failed to update. I'm assuming it soft bricked.
Every time I plug it into the computer, it enters flash mode. So repairing vie xperia companion is a no go.
Any suggestions?
Cheers!
Flashtool is not 7.0 compatable yet. It should be soon.
If you want to repair with xperia companion or PCCompanion you need the phone in flashmode so that will work. Just go through the dialogues in companion to force a software repair.
Thank you.

To perform a software repair using a computer

On a Windows® computer, download the application from http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/xperia-companion/.

It would be nice to see the errors if you could upload them. Also, if your bootloader is unlocked PCCompanion or xperia companion will not work. You will need to use EMMA from Sony that works with unlocked bootloaders.
Is your bootloader still unlock ?
if yes you need to relock first then try repair again in companion, maybe fail at first time but it's will be sucsses, it's not bricked, just like me yesterday, and now i got locked bootloader on 7.0.
same problem.even the sony companion can't repair the phone. then i used flashtool to flash the previous version ftf and the phone is repaired. but still 6.0.1. by the way i didn't unlock the bootloader.
seens like the flashtool need an update too.

yes... exactly the same for me.. i need to reflash the central europe 1 ftf to make the phone work.... i try to flash the turkey 6.0.1 ftf to get the OTA 7.0 but not work... flashtool give me errors on "modem.sis" and "system.sis"..... or something like that.... but now its ok whit 6.0.1 .... i just wait now..... no rush for me
What about Xperia companion? it seems to be stuck with me as well. I go through all the steps and its stuck on "repairing your xperia device"
There's no real way to brick these devices unless you unlocked the bootloader. Just flash a 6.0 ROM and have it perform an OTA upgrade to 7.0. There's a Customized RU ftf floating around here.
I'm in 7.0, can I flash back to 6.0 ? Cuz 7.0 is currently incompatible with a game I used to play.

That's all you need to do... There is no onscreen flashmode GUI.
When flashtool prompts you to connect hold down the button and attach the cable.. it will happen automatically.
if you still have difficulties run drivers.exe from the flashtool folder and choose flashmode drivers.

Flash this and you get OTA 7.0 in a minute..
I did that to at first and got that message update failed.
After flash ru rom i still got al my settings and apps.
