Xperia L - problems entering flash mode - Sony Xperia L

Hello,
I've flashed my Xperia L once or twice some time ago, now I just wanted to try out some of the new goodies, not just stay on the cursed 4.2.2. I have it all set up correctly software-wise, yet whenever I run Flashtool (version 9.19.8( and try to Volume-Down connect my phone, it get's problematic. Yeah, the phone does connect in flash mode, yet after a couple dozen seconds it simply disconnects as if I had manually unplugged it. Phone restarts and gets connected to PC the standard-way.
Now, is it that Flashtool automatically cuts off the connection after some time, or my cable or socket(s) are faulty? I thought it had something to do with having moved cable a tiny bit and connection being lost but now, I have tried again, ensuring no movement will be involved and it just disconnected again. I did also check all my laptop's USB ports, also bought a USB HUB and checked it. Did check two different cables, one for some Nokia, I think, no results.
Here's flashtool log.

First of all, you should check this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70833785&postcount=304
There, I've said that you should just use older versions of flashtool for XL, like v0.9.18.4 !
If it doesn't solve your problem, then you should flash the ROM , right after you connect the phone to pc, as fast as you can!
And note that if it disconnects again, do nothing, just unplug the phone and wait untill the progress bar is completed and rom is prepared for flashing, then it again asks to connect the phone, and you connect it and wait untill it Finnishes
It happened for me too, and with this method, I've flashed the ROM successfully!

Can't use Flashtool.

Hello. I'm new at this great forum. Excuse my english, I'm from Spain. Several days trying to solve my problem, reading at google, forums, etc. This is the matter:
I bought recently an Xperia ray, bootloader blocked, updated to 4............62 Then, I realised that this firmware cannot be rooted. So I`ve downloaded previous firmwares, 042 and 058 and tried to flash via flashtool so as to revert my 062 firmware to those 042 or 058. but there is no way to flash. I start flashing with the phone switched off and ge this message:
05/009/2012 14:09:30 - INFO - <- This level is successfully initialized
05/009/2012 14:09:31 - INFO - Flashtool Version 0.6.6 built on 2012-01-08 19:34:23

However, I previously put USB debugging on, for sure.
Then, I tried conecting USB cable with the phone switched on, and get this message:

After that, no further actions, and no flash done. I dont know what else i can do. Help, please. I also tried using different usb ports, with no result.
Thanks in advance.
Problem solved.

[Q] Flashtool error

I'm on Windows 8.1 x64, installed all drivers correctly, and when I connect my device with flashtool I receive this error:
23/052/2014 13:52:39 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging on
23/052/2014 13:52:39 - ERROR - Cannot identify your device.
So Flashtool says me to select a device from the list. When I select the Xperia L, he shows that:
23/052/2014 13:52:56 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
23/052/2014 13:52:56 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode

I can reboot my phone with Flashtool, install busybox, etc.
But when I try to flash a firmware, it says me to install the driver and the flash fails.
How to solve this?
Have you installed fastboot and flashmode driver

Sony Xperia E3 D2203 Brick

Hi!
Some days ago my phone's battery has just died, I was charging it all night, but when I tried to turn it on it started to Bootloop. Then I was trying to flash the original sony system, but the Sony Flashtool program needs to have USB Debugging to be on. On my phone it wasn's turned on, so Im stock at this point, I cant flesh the thing on my E3. I would really appreciate If you would help me if you can.
So the main question is: how can I solve the problem about USB Debugging if the phone is softbricked?

21/039/2016 13:39:03 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
I was trying to connect my phone in flash mode, but it failed because of not having USB Debugging on. Is there any way to enable USB Debugging if the phone is softbricked?

[HELP] My Xperia XZ is connected in Flash mode but does nothing after that

Hello, long story short, I'm trying to downgrade from Android 8.0 to Android 6.1.1 so I can back up my DRM keys, this is where I got and it's not doing anything more, should I wait or what ?

@QattosOrion , From your logs it seems you are not connecting the phone properly. completely power off your phone and when flashtool asks to plug the phone keep pressing vol-down and plug the cable, don't touch the pwr button, flashing should start automatically.
