Hello bro. There is a well known conflict in windows 7(and up) driver installation. If you have xp, then everything will work like a charm.
To clarify...
Fastboot : blue led. Volume up+device connect via usb.
Flashmode : green led. Volume down+device connect via usb.
Meanwhile I'll give you a link on how to install drivers in windows 7.

I'm trying to unlock the boot loader of my Xperia U. But I'm having some troubles...
When I try to enter fastboot mode (pressing Vol Up + plugging the data cable in), I get a blue light (as supposed to) and on the Device Manager appears "S1Boot Fastboot", but my device doesn't stay on fastboot mode...
The blue light turns off and the "S1Boot Fastboot" device on the Device Manager disappears... This happens after 3 seconds after I plug the data cable in... and the phone enters in charging mode...
Is this a hardware problem? Or am I doing something wrong?
Driver on windows isn't installed correctly. Point it to the drivers directory.

How can I point to something that is not there (on device manager)?
Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.
Try re-installing the drivers after removing them and restarting your PC.
- If possible try to connect to a different system altogether so as to confirm if this error is not specific to your system.
Cheers !

That doesn't always work. Plug the phone in in fast boot mode. Should pop up New driver

First, I'm sorry for the wrong section, cooleagle. Will be more careful next time.
I already have flashtool installed, and I already installed the drivers within it. What left for me is try to connect to another computer.
For me seems to be a hardware problem at first, not a software.. but I will try your suggestions.
BTW, on flashboot mode it stays.
As soon as the s1boot pops up in device manager right click and select update drivers. Normally Windows automatically installed the drivers provided it is connected to internet
Tapatalked !
Fastboot driver is the android_winusb.inf file, right? I point to that, but Windows tells me it could not find the propper driver...
The thing is: no matter how fast I am on pointing to this driver, the device always vanish first on Device Manager... Is this normal?
Did the same for me when i tried the first time but i was able to update the drivers just before it disappeared. Also one thing that happens on my phone is if i keep the volume button pressed for long it reboots, if i leave the button as soon as the blue light comes up it stays.

i had the same problem back then
But that flashtool method saved my day
I've tried that method that you have to be fast to install the driver
But it never works
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
The flashtool method you mean going in C:\Flashtool\drivers and install the Flashtool-drivers.exe? I already did that... but still nothing...
And I release the vol up button soon too..

I was only selecting Xperia P, U drivers... But I didn't see that at the bottom is the Fastboot driver.
I hope this helps others! Btw, this information should be on the guides around...

i was quite ignorant when i did a full wipe of my xperia p.the only thing in my phone left was kernel,it boot until sony logo and i could not find solution to switch it off so as to enter flashboot mode.....then i found how to resart(power off ) device that battery cannot be removed. just hold the switch off button and volume + until the phone vibrate 3 times. then you could enter flashboot/flashmode by holding the volume + / or vol - while connecting the usb....i still had problem where error appear during flashing and phone resarting....i install gordon gate flash driver on my pc....and the key for a sucessful flashing of my device was when i was flashing for 1 second i notice that a screen appear on flashtoll asking to enter flashboot mode again it so i quickly removed usd cable hold the power off and volume + button until 3 vibration and hold the vol + button while connecting the usd cable it work.
to resume you must install ggf driver and have to enter flashboot twice during flashing
Well, I've been trying to install a custom ROM on my Xperia Sola, but it won't go into fastboot
Tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26875204&postcount=4
I've managed to install usb drivers on my phone using this, but it still won't go into fastboot
Any help?
Edit:
Just to be clear... blue LED is fastboot right?
cause its always purple, then when I try to activate fastboot it goes blue for half a second, then goes purple again

Try different USB port and make sure driver is installed.
Install the PC Companion, then connect the phone and let the phone install the drivers needed (When the pop up appears on the phone, select ok).
See if that works. This phone has a problem with Windows 7.
Otherwise, if you have a windows XP phone, you can get into fastboo there.
My experience - if your phone is "Bootloader Unlock Allowed = No", then you cannot access fastboot mode, only Flash mode. That's my experience from XU
same problem with xperia go

Please follow the instructions :
1.Turn off the phone
[Do not connect it to the computer]
2.Open flashtool and select flashmode
3.Select the firmware and click flash.
4.Connect your phone when the screen shows the prompt with the diagrams
[By pressing volume down ,don't release the button]
5.If everything goes well the flashing will proceed.
The sequence of steps is important.I softbricked my friend's XU by following the wrong sequence(Stuck at Bootlogo and led flashes once when you try to connect in flash or fastboot mode).Following the correct sequence unbricked it....

How did you try to enter flashmode?
Install all drivers from flashtool>drivers for all modes/devices. Then you take out the battery of your phone and reinsert it. Now press and hold volume down and connect the usb. Don't power the phone on, just press volume down and connect. The green led should light up and you are in flashmode
Then you can flash the stock rom using flashtool :good:

Try on another pc...
Or
Reinstall windows ...connect phone to windows and patiently wait for drivers to be installed using windows update service via internet...
After that put device in flash/green LED mode ,then patiently wait for flash mode drivers to be installed ...
Use flashtool or update service to go back to stock ROM
This is a windows issue so the thumb rule is "reboot windows,try on another windows,reinstall windows.."

if u get into fastboot the only open flashtool select ur flash stuff, it will tell u turn off phone , do this than connect it via flashmode (green led, flashtool should be flashin -..)
