Once you connect your phone via usb and while you are pressing volume up button, on windows go start-> right click on computer->devices manager. Now you should see your device. Right click and install drivers manually from the folder of the drivers you downloaded.
Notice that you have to be fast since and that maybe you will have to repeat this procedure several times since firsts times phone remains on fastboot for really few seconds.
You can also try another way. Download and install latest flashtool. After that go to Computer-> C:/-> Flashtool-> Drivers-> run Flashtool-drivers. Install the drivers for your device.

what you gotta do is this..
download http://www.mediafire.com/?lt8ghch95u5abgo
If you open it, there are 2 zip files.
1. open drivers.zip
2. extract it somewhere
3. open device manager (or whatever it's called in English windows)
4. connect your Xperia S in fastboot mode (volume up and plug in USB)
5. in less them 3 seconds, hit right button on S1(something device with exclamation mark)
6. select "update drivers"
7. select somewhere\x64\usbwin folder
8. hit ok.
at this time your Xperia S will be allready out of fastboot mode.
9. wait for windows to install drivers
10. wait another couple of seconds, and plug Xperia S in fastboot mode again

I did this a lot of times, but the pc says, windows could not find the drivers and immediately the phone restarts to charging mode =/
How can it be ??
Do 1 thing, keep your device manager opened, connect the phone in FASTBOOT mode and as soon as the Driver icon appears, update driver manually !! It's okay if the phones disconnects.. Once the drivers are installed, connect the phone again..

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49236873
Is there any way for this device to unlock bootloader without connecting to the pc?
I can access fastboot (the blue light) but my pc doesn't say anything nor the device show up in device manager when connected, Flashtool doesn't detect anything.
Is there a way to install ROM without connecting to the computer, only accessing fastboot?
Thank you.

No, that's not possible
I guess you should try reinstalling all drivers from flashtool for all devices, or try installing PC Companion or SEUS. If that's not working, open the windows device manager and uninstall/update the drivers for your phone when it's connected

Hi I have Xperia GO ST27i and I've tried to unlock bootloader with flashtool, and there says that I have not have drivers installed, but I do, I tried installing drivers for fastboot with android_winusb.inf and it showed me error that drivers are damaged or something like that. I've tryed unlocking bootloader with offical xperia unlocking guide (their website) and in the cmd it didn't detect my phone probably because of drivers S1Boot Fastboot.
I would realy appriciate any kind of help,

If you go into the installation folder for flashtool there is a folder called drivers which contains an .exe program, they have 99.9% of the drivers available for xperia devices, install the fastboot and flash drivers aswell as any others that correspond with your device, it would help if you looked up the chipset if in doubt.
Hopefully once you've installed these drivers then you should be ok, remember to switch your phone off and hold down the volume up button when putting in the usb cable in order to enter fastboot mode, the blue LED light should light up if it works.
Hi there,
I have a rooted xperia u with unlocked bootloader. I've tried to install the cm9 following a guide where the requirement of the installation was having an original Sony firmware installed on the device. I didn't saw that requirement, and I installed it with a custom rom on my phone. So after flashing the kernel I turned on my xperia...
Bricked.
It made only the vibration but no Sony logo appeared. So, I connected it in flashmode on my computer (with windowsXP) with green led working, but flashtool gived me the message that I must install the phone drivers (even if I had already installed them on my pc). I tryed to reinstall them but nothing canghed.
I also tried to connect the phone on a windows 7 pc always with flastool (and drivers installed) but in that case neither fastboot mode or flashmode, nor any vibration was working (pc doesn't detect it).
I tried to connect the phone with removed battery or also a reset with power and volume up buttons but nothing...
It's still like this, with fastboot mode or flashmode not working with any pc... :crying:
Is there anything that I can do?
Thanks in advance.
Head to Sony service centre

Sorry Cwikla, I didn't flashed the kernel, but the rom. I wrote it wrong.
Try getting into fastboot. Even without drivers, you might be able to do so. Bring up the fastboot menu in flashtool, then plug in your phone in fastboot. Quickly hit reboot into fastboot (via fastboot). Then flash another kernel and restore a nandroid backup(if you have one)

To go to flashmode on flashtool you need to put the firmware on the correct folder. Where have you placed the ftf file?
Do you have unlocked bootloader?
If not, then fastboot is not for you and have option to use Pc Companion to repair your software if the problem is in there.
Did you install flashmod drivers for your phone?
What happen if you connect your phone switched off with hold down the button volume - and connect in the same time usb cabel to the phone?
Did you see green light?

i didnt put it in a specific folder, at the moment its in the download folder.
but the ftf file is loading perfectly, the problem is when it says to connect the phn and doesnt detect it .
i connected the usb holding the vol down button and the red led turned into green, but the pc starts showing usb device not recognised.

no bootloader is locked.
it had the original stock firmware without any modification(not even rooted) before it went dead.
the same thing happens with pc companion it doesnt detect the phn.
and yes the green light turns on.
Like i say before. Don't wait Pc companion to recognise your phone.
Just turn off the phone, charge it good, after that connect with Companion WITHOUT turn on the phone or what you want and continue with the steps.
Doesnt flash mode work even with a locked bootloader?
Maybe you haven't installed USB drivers. Go to local disk C then flash tool and then open drivers and install the drivers for your device.
And then check flash boot again.

Flashmod is for device with locked bootloader and flash on stock files.
Fastboot is for device with unlocked bootloader and for flash on custom / different from stock files.
Fastboot will not do the work after the author has locked buuloader.
Better use Flashtool with flashmode or Sony Pc Companion or Xperia Comapnion, again with flashmod / green light.

and thats why fastboot drivers are working fine.
It is normal to not recognize the phone after not loaded operating system.
In the video I will share, will also see that there are unknown devices, but this is the menu models to indicate the program right model and proceed to download and install the software.
Just try it, if i understand you.
