So flash it with all firmware parts using s1tool. I don't know history of that phone so i can't help you more.

[shadowstream]

THANK YOU for this fantastic forum and for sharing with us.

I flashed my c5503 device wrongly and it got hard bricked, finally managed to reinstall boot using the testpoint method. YES, I can confirm that the testpoint is at the location illustrated on the picture(the one that worked for me is the right most one from the chip).

 

Flashed in EDL mode the included file in the first post 10_4_B_0_569.APP_SW_Dogo_GENERIC_1271_0110_S1_SW_LIVE_5CA3_PID1_0002_MMC.SIN_FILE_SET and it was successful.

 

 

Sorry for my noobish questions..

I want o flash the rest of the files but don't know where to find them, I have downloaded a stock ftf , extracted it and still don't see the files below.

 

Please help me understand where I can find these files?

 

1. APPSW, ?

 

2. FSP, ?

 

3. ELABEL. ? ( I have seen an Elabel .sin file in the tft, is this the correct one?)

 

Also, I wanted know how I can tell which regional ftf to flash e.g NCB, Russia etc... How can I tell which is the proper region for my phone?

 

EDIT: Here is some info from the log report of the flash:

Phone boot is fixed but now tried flashing with flashtool it gave me errors while flashing system.sin. (My phone won't accept flashing system.sin at all, I tried using many different flashtool versions and FTF files but same result.

 

I searched the internet high and low and can't find the files FSP and ELABEL (.SIN_FILE_SET files). I am willing to make the files from FTF but there is no proper tutorial about the file types of my phone, I saw your tutorial for the Z1 (C6903)ftf files here but the file structures are a little different.

 

If you have a link to the SIN_FILE_SET files that will the most appreciated.

 

or please show us how to make the files for our phone types.

 

Thanks.

You can search the web for sin_file_set firmware files or create them by yourself: https://sony.yt/topi...55-smartphones/. Just edit ftf file using for example winrar, remove from ftf package all files included in appsw, separate elabel.sin file and the rest of files compile in fsp.sin_file_set file

[shadowstream]

Thank you very much, managed to create the files and flash the firmware successfully. 

There were a few differences with the file names and some files were missing but eventually succeeded following the proper formats and file types.

So i suppose your phone is back to life?

 

 

There were a few differences with the file names and some files were missing

 

I know, different files in different firmware compilations, recently different layout so it's almost impossible to write one short tutorial for all firmware versions and all xperia devices.

[shadowstream]

Yes it's back to life   firmware installed propery, thankfully this one worked as expected. Your previous post pointed me in the right direction that I needed. Thanks again.

i have similar issue with my c5502
phone crashed suddenly and wont open anymore i was on custome rom so my BL was unlocked 
i wiped system and flashed the linageos rom again but still wont boot up i get starting sony logo then phone shuts down
i flashed with s1tool same issue
flashed with flashtool both firmwares 5.1.1 and 4.3 and still sony logo and shuts down any ideas ?!

[Jurij]

 

phone crashed suddenly and wont open anymore

 

That suggests hardware issue. I've used many Sony Ericsson / Sony Android phones since they were released and none of them has crashed suddenly. Maybe your phone has fallen or has been water damaged...

 

Best regards,
