Press and hold the volume up + power combination until you get 3 vibrations. Then try connecting your phone in flash mode and flash the latest firmware using Flashtool.

Can you please describe the problem in detail? If you're having driver problems, then go to the drivers directory in Flashtool's folder and open the driver installation exe file and install the drivers for xperia s.

Is your boot loader unlocked? If yes, then you should be able to connect your phone in fastboot and flash a custom kernel so that you can access cwm and flash a rom from your internal storage.
If your boot loader isn't unlocked, then download Sony's official software called Sony Update Service and do a re-install of the phone's software. Installing SUS should take care of all the driver problems too.

[Q] Xperia Arc (Lt15i) Problem

Hi, today i installed a custom rom, this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836993. I followed instructions described there, after installing and rebooting nothing happens except for sony logo. My pc doesn't even see the device after i plugged the usb cable. Can someone help me?
You are stuck in bootloader you either need to install kernel mentioned in thread or reflash the Rom either by using pccompanion or use flashtools and download the according ftf file found in general stickies.
You could ask in that thread where you got Rom from.

Problem fixed

My ZL bricked.. please help

it's been just two days since I got my new ZL
Cause: It happened when I changed 'build.prob' and saved via Root Explorer.
As soon as I saved the file, phone automatically rebooted and fell into boot loop.
I believe something is wrong with permission (for build.prob)
My ZL
does not have unlocked bootloader
thus , does not have recovery to fix permission.
ADM does not work since usb debugging was turned off
is rooted
is able to go into FASTBOOT but can't flash since it's not unlocked bootloader.
I believe it can be fixed by changing permission for 'build.prop' to 644
spent like 3 hours til 6 am here and no luck.
Is there is any method I can fix permission? recover or do factory reset?
I was following 'MUST DO' list for ZL. it happened when I tried to remove navibar.
Any comment will be appreciated.

worked for me the same way...heads up!
uncheck "data" when flashing...keeps your files.
your bootloader does not have to be unlocked to flash stock files...

The problem I had was the pc
I reinstalled ftf by laptop and flashtool worked nicely
Thanks everyone

Run into same problem. So volume down+usb to PC when flash?
Thanks
Install flashtool on your pc and there is a 'driver' folder under 'flashtool'
Install the driver file select xperia z and flashtool driver.
Then launch flashtool and flash ftf file.
It will tell you how to enter flashmode.

[Q] Unlock Bootlader Driver help!!!

I followed the unlock bootloader steps, in which I have to install the fastboot and usb driver.
But when I connected my phone via fastboot mode, it only connects as fastboot for 5 seconds or so, before reverting back to normal usb connection.
I can't the drivers also, even if I try to install it as soon as I connected it.
Any ideas on how I can solve this?
download flashtool. install. go to my computer - flashtool and install the drivers from there. sometimes they're just a pain to get working

I tried to install fastboot with flashtool, but it ended up as installation failed. Maybe its due to I'm using Windows 8?
could be. there's some guide somewhere about windows 8 because loads of people have had problems with it.

I did that before of to open the posts. the problem is that, the flash tools not is identifying like debugging on. the program shows this message "For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode", but i tried of every forms of connection usb, with debugging on, even so i didn't have success.
the smartphone is with rom CM11, with recovery clockworkmod and bootloader unlocked. The flashtools program, just identifies like debugging on, when my phone is connected . when i do try connect in flash mode, the program shows this messages "For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode" and " Device connected with USB debugging off".
i would of one original kernel, without recovery. if someone has. send me please.
