If you are on locked boot loader, repair with pc companion or SEUS. You'll all lose your data though.

I tried that but my phone is already cant carry out any function anymore,pc companion cant detect my phone at all.anyway,thx.

Then search in neo general section for flashtool and ftf files. You'll need to flash ftf using flash tool.

Could it be due to locked bootloader?
Also install the file in the flashtool\drivers folder to make sure it's not a driver issue

Agreed with senior. Drivers might not be installed properly, or flashing wrong files. Make sure X10 Brand name exists in flashtool alright.

Bootloader have two types: Locked Bootloader and Unlocked Bootloader. Normally Developers will provide 2 version of ROMs to be flashed. Safest flashing for Locked Bootloader is via Xrecovery, while Unlocked Bootloader is Flash FTF Kernel and recommended Recovery. You can check/identify your Bootloader Status and also Simlock Certificate (see whether Suitable to be unlocked bootloader) via S1tool by senior 9luka5
link for S1tool here For more tutorial, you can visit my signature links for PDf guides. Thank you. Cheers

Download the latest version of flashtool v0.9... I think u can unlock bootloader by going to "plugins" tab right next to help....it would show up only if your bootloader is locked... once you unlock then you can flash any kernel you want... remember to backup your existing ROM using recovery before you go around messing with phone

Before I can give you any link I have small question... is your phone rooted? And what version of android you r running ? And if its a custom ROM then what ROM are you using?
BTW you can't flash custom kernel without unlocking bootloader.. you need to unlock bootloader to flash kernel... kernels are usually ftf files you can download them and flash using flashtool.... different ROMs have different kernel so you need to read instructions on ROM thread you r interested in...

You have soft bricked your phone.. don't worry, download a ROM which you can use for locked bootloader and follow the steps and you should be good to go... to get into flash mode try this.... don't connect your phone but start Seus-> update software-> repair-> software will ask you to get into flash mode so turn off phone by removing battery, connect the phone without battery-> place the battery while holding the back button down and phone will get into flash mode and stock ROM will be flashed...

[Q] Hard reset from lock screen, forgot password!

Basically I lost this phone which at the time I thought somebody stole it but it appears it's been in my house so now I have the neo again and my S3 (woohoo?) Anyway, I cannot remember the password at all. I didn't know anything about android when I had this and I don't really know how to proceed about rewriting the firmware from the lock screen or what program Sony Ericsson uses on a computer.
I have looked on google and all that keeps popping up is about the ICS 4.0 update rolling out for it
Can anybody point me in the right direction to a guide or a program?
thanks all

Download pc companion or sony update service, click in sus on your phone, reinstall/repair firmware (something like that) and then you just have to plug your phone in flashmode again. It will flash the firmware (guess it will wipe data) and it should be fine
I've got the same problem as you. just download firmware for your device (search in google), then flash via flashtool.

What Was the Previous Version Of Your Android before Upgrading It to .587 ?
This Problem is very Common Among Those use .58 of 2.3.4 on their LWW before Upgrading.Just Remove Your SD card and Completely Format It , You can Copy ur music and other personal files But DO NOT COPY files created My phone like android , data , .android_secure or something simply copy those are of ur personal Interest.
Then Flash The .ftf from the link given below and flash .58 firmware and root ur device (if u wish but if not leave the step no. 3 undone and u will not be rooted) then upgrade using ur phone To .62 as a system update from the update center (do not use PC).
after that u will get a clean .62 Firmware.
If u wish to install the ICS please install it via Offline mode as it provides u clean install and no problem (i am using it)

Right you think its useless? Or that you cant flash a custom rom with flashtool?
Sent from my LT22i using xda app-developers app
It's not useless at all, but it's useless here. For a custom Rom you need to unlock boot loader which will definitely void warranty. Be safe man.
Sent from Xperia P, using tapatalk.
download an official jb firmware for your phone! download flashtool! enable usb debugging and connect your phone to the pc! Then choose the file you have downloaded and flash it!
You can also use SUS (Sony Update Service)......BTW did you use pcc to install it or downloaded it OTA.....

Try SUS/PCC like a lot here are saying. Hope your Internet connection is enough. God knows I tried via official methods but ended up downloading a generic ftf and flashing it.

Slight correction needed IMO: You need to unlock your BL only when your CUSTOM ROM needs a CUSTOM KERNEL.
He can try to repair phone with pcc or he can unlock bootloader and install STOCK or Custom Rom, who says that flashtool is only for custom roms , With unlocked boot loader he will void warranty.. yes.. a part that... he can lock the bootloader again..and I have not seen written anywhere in his topic question that he does not want to lose warranty... so mine it was just a suggestion... not an Obligation
Take care friend

anyways. My xperia P hasn't got any official update. and i am also waitng for official update rather than a manual update, I know the flashtool method is not a risky one but still you may get some problems in using jellybean. Becase the generic version and your S.I version would not be the same. my S.I = 1261-4989 ,
I have heard many bugs in jellybean, Album issue, white screen in contact and messaging, blutooth broblem, fast drain battery prob, slow charging, lagging, etc i wants to know, are these bugs are real or just a wrong imagination. Thanks
I havent seen any bugs so far for JB on xGO. And it performs quite nicely without having to edit build.prop or run init.d scripts. I'm using CE ftf.
Let's go, xGO! To the Jelly Cave!
JB stock, locked, and rooted.

My XU is simlocked with Orange - Poland and works great with any region ROM (sometimes GPS needs fixing). Have you tried ADB restore root method from Flashtool? For some reason bin4ry never works for me, but Flashtool one (isn't it the same script?) always works.
