Fastboot problem - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
i try rooting my z5c with this tutorial.
I'm stuck on 5.7 (Flash your patched Kernel to your phone with this command: fastboot flash boot kernel-patched.elf)
The Process always stops at " <waiting for device> "
fastboot devices has no output
flashtool output:
05/044/2016 20:44:55 - INFO - Starting phone detection
05/044/2016 20:44:59 - INFO - Device connected in fastboot mode

OS: Win10
Flashtool drivers installed: Fastboot, Flashmode, Xperia Z5c
I installed them skipping the untrusted driver signature warning, ohterwise it would have failed.
The devicemanagement says: Android Device > Sony Fastboot Interface
Would be nice if someone could help
Edit: It worked now but I have absolutely now idea why. I was away for a few hours and simply tried again. OS not rebooted and phone off during this time. Just turned it into fastboot mode again but i did this several times earlier without any effect.

Nice to see you solved, in my experience it's usually driver problems looking in Device Management.

[Q] FlashTool 0.8.6.0 Doesn't detect my xps

All -
I cant seem to post to the development forum due to my lack of post counts. So here's the issue.
My Xperia S doesnt boot. what I did was I tried to flash it with the recently released ICS. When trying to flash using flashtool 0.8.6.0, it says, Drivers need to be installed for connected device. I did install the drivers from the driver directory on that came with flashtool.
I did some digging and found out that my computer isnt recognizing a device on the device manager. it is called QHSUSB_DLOAD. I searched the internet for a driver for this qualcom device but it wont let me update the driver. it seems that it isn't compatible.
I'm on Win7. anyone else having this issue?
Here is the log from flashtool

Fixed!!
Thank God for Linux.
@m1st3r1: as previously stated on my OP, I did update and installed the drivers but it wasn't recognizing it. Using FlashTool for Linux fixed the problem.

So the phone is allready unlocked.
I have the Google Android ADB drivers installed.
But i can not kick the phone into fastboot via ADB.
Also i can not enter fastboot with any key while plugging the usb into the phone.
Any suggestions?
thx

are you sure you are entering fastboot mode in a proper way? power off the phone, hold vol down button and connect to pc, if the led turns blue you are in fastboot mode.
edit:
it seems you are trying this on x8 or similar phone, hold menu and connect the device
Think so......

Okay, there are 2 things:
1. This is xperia mini pro sk17i forum and not x10 mini pro, so better ask there
2. On our phone it's volume up to enter fastboot and please install all drivers for all devices/modes from flashtool folder -> drivers, too...

Reinstall all drivers. I heard pcc installs them all for you.

Maybe Install flashtool and install the drives that come with it?
I am not sure, but I think that is what is working for me.

Remove the drivers first, then reinstall Flashtool drivers, report back when you have done that.

I can't connect to my phone when in fastboot mode

When my phone is in fastboot mode (blue LED) FlashTool log prints message "INFO - Device connected in fastboot mode" but this is all what I can get. Nothing else works in this mode. FlashTool wants me to set device into fastboot mode but it is in this mode at the moment.
Open your phone at fastboot mode when it asks. I mean a window will open when you click the bolt, select fastboot and select the thing you wanna do. And do what it says.

Bootloader Unlock Issue

Hello everyone; I need your help and assistance.
I am having trouble unlocking the bootloader of a Sony Xperia M4 Aqua E2303 device; the Service Menu (*#*#7378423#*#*) reveals Rooting Status: Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes.
Device Details
Android version: 5.0
Build number: 26.1.A.3.111
I have downloaded and installed the corresponding driver from https://developer.sony.com/develop/drivers/, downloaded and installed the Google USB Driver (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb), and availed an unlock code from https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
From hereon, I downloaded and extracted the SDK Platform-Tools for Windows (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools), but utilising the code
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x<myunlockcode>
(referred from https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/how-to-unlock-bootloader/) only yielded within Command Prompt the message: fastboot: unknown option -i.
Since the above procedure did not yield the desired result, I attempted the alternative: Flashtool method, using the [Guides][Root][FlashTool][Drivers][Memory Problems][Unlock Bootloader] [TA Backup] (https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/guide-t3130092) as a reference guide. I downloaded and installed Flashtool 0.9.18.6, and the Flashtool Drivers; albeit the installation directory on my computer is set C:\Flashtool, inside C:\Users\<myusername>\.flashTool\registeredDevices, I created a folder titled mydevices, within it another folder having the device code as its title, and within the latter folder I created a text file titled ulcode, having the unlock code as data entry.
However, post flash mode and fastboot mode processes, Flashtool concludes ....INFO - FAILED (remote: Command not allowed). I have furnished the narrative of the Flashtool process' log below.

I await your valuable replies, correcting whatever mistake(s) I may have very likely committed.
Having done almost all of the important leg work, I overlooked the most fundamental dynamic: Enable OEM unlock within Developer options; I was unaware of the said feature due to lack of sustained experience with Sony Xperia devices!
:silly:
The bootloader has been successfully unlocked, subsequently, custom recovery (TWRP) was successfully flashed, and the device was successfully rooted.
:good:
