Required files:

FlashtoolDownload link

Firmwares — Download the “.ftf” firmware file for your phone. Below are the links:

Android 2.3.4    [4.0.2.A.0.62]

[warning] The methods and procedures discussed here are considered risky and you should not attempt anything if you don’t know completely what it is. Do this only if you’re capable of getting your phone back right on your own. If any damage occurs to you or your device, we won’t be held liable. You only will be responsible — you’ve been warned. Okay![/warning]

Video instructions:

Instructions:

  1. Switch off your phone and put it aside.
  2. Extract the “FlashTool_x.x.x.x.exe” file on your PC (you can just double click on it to extract)
  3. Few files and folders will be extracted — the two which we’ll be using are the ‘drivers‘ folder and the ‘firmwares‘ folder.
  4. Inside the ‘drivers‘ folder there’s a file named “ggsetup-2.2.0.10.exe”, double click on this file to install the proper driver on your PC.
  5. Now copy the “.ftf” firmware file that you downloaded for your phone, and paste it inside the “firmwares” folder.
  6. Double click the “X10FlashTool.exe” file.
  7. Once the program opens — click on the “Flash” button.
  8. You’ll see the firmware that you copied in Step 5 loaded on the screen — click “Ok”!
  9. Now it should ask you to connect your phone to the PC. So first plug the USB cable to PC, then pick up your phone and hold the “Back” key (key at the bottom left on your Arc), and then connect the USB cable to your phone. Remember you’ve to hold the “Back” key while connecting the USB cable to phone.
  10. Once the phone gets connected — Flashtool will automatically start the flashing process.
  11. Keep an eye on the Flashtool’s screen.
  12. And once the process gets finished, disconnect your phone from PC and switch it ON.
  13. Don’t freak if it takes longer to boot (that’s normal)  as the phone has to build the cache again after flashing.

Enjoy!

Many thanks to the XDA Developer community for firmwares.

      I think you should choose the Global firmware..

      To confirm, do the following:Go to Settings → About phone → and check if your baseband version is this → 7X30A-AAABQMAZM-1290_21-22.
      If yes, then definitely go for the the Global firmware.

      Open the “drivers” folder after you extract flashtool. There’ll be a setup file in there to install the drivers.

      This is for Xperia Arc only, so I hope you tried it on an Arc only.

      Anyway, you should try again because normally it doesn’t happen. And make sure your USB cable isn’t loose.

      Yes, I do have an Xperia Arc. I’ve tried several times, first two times it  stopt after flashing fona1 and now it starts with flashing loader and than stops after flashing adsp. This is what it shows:

      This is really strange, try updating your phone through the ‘Sony Ericsson PC Companion’ software. It may help.

      Remember PC Companion software might not be able to update your phone if your phone’s boot loader is unlocked, so you’ll have to re-lock the boot loader to get PC Companion to work on your phone.

      BTW, I’d suggest you to not play with your phone anymore and take it to Sony Ericsson service center.

      Hey wait. It might be possible that your firmware file is corrupted. I think you should download the firmware again. I’m providing you a different download link below, it’s a ‘.rar’ file so you’ll have to extract the file first to get the ‘.ftf’ firmware file that will be used with flashtool, alright.

      So below is the download link:

      http://download.theandroidsoul.com/file/LT15i_4.0.1.A.0.283_Generic-Global.rar

      While you can use any program to extract ‘.rar’ file, I’d recommend you to use ‘7-zip’. It’s free and works perfect.

      Hey wait. It might be possible that your firmware file is corrupted. I think you should download the firmware again. I’m providing you a different download link below, it’s a ‘.rar’ file so you’ll have to extract the file first to get the ‘.ftf’ firmware file that will be used with flashtool, alright.

      So below is the download link:

      Thank you, i’m going to try this, I did unlocked the bootloader indeed. So it won’t update through PC companion. When my phone lives again, i’ll never try anything anymore haha. I’ll let you know if it worked 😉

      Try using the version of Flashtool that I’ve provided in this post. Also re-install the drivers, if it helps.

      And I’ve written a guide on how to re-lock the boot loader also, so try re-locking and then try updating through PC Companion. Search this site for “re-lock Xperia Arc boot loader” to find the guide.

      I did, first tried to flash tje firmware again. This didn’t work and after that i re-locked the bootloaders, which worked (!) But now PC Companion says the same as before, with unlocked bootloaders. Isn’t there something like a total reset? I don’t necessarily need a rooted phone, I just want one that works 🙁

      This is for Xperia Arc only, so I hope you tried it on an Arc only.

      Anyway, you should try again because normally it doesn’t happen. And make sure your USB cable isn’t loose.

        Yes, I do have an Xperia Arc. I’ve tried several times, first two times it  stopt after flashing fona1 and now it starts with flashing loader and than stops after flashing adsp. This is what it shows:

        1. Shivam Avatar

          This is really strange, try updating your phone through the ‘Sony Ericsson PC Companion’ software. It may help.

          Remember PC Companion software might not be able to update your phone if your phone’s boot loader is unlocked, so you’ll have to re-lock the boot loader to get PC Companion to work on your phone.

          BTW, I’d suggest you to not play with your phone anymore and take it to Sony Ericsson service center.

      I think you’re pressing the wrong key, press the ‘back’ key when you connect to flashtool. It will work.

      The blue light appears when you press the ‘Menu’ key and it gets the phone in bootloader mode, which we don’t want when working with flashtool.

      So press the ‘Back’ key 🙂

    hey my xperia play was working fine after i rooted and flashed to us 2.3.3 generic fw so i can get the 2.3.4 update which worked fine until, like an idiot, i did factory data reset. after that the home button doesn’t work, can’t recieve incoming calls, when I hold down the power button i only get two options (power off and screenshot). I fixed this problem before but i can’t remember. PPPPPPPPPLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSS hellp

    I successfully rooted my xperia arc. Suddenly the phone come out with the upgrade “Build number 4.0.2.A.0.42” and I just upgrade it. But after I upgrade it and restart my phone, it does not on anymore. So what should I do?

    While flashing the flash tool says Bootloader status : NOT_ROOTABLE followed by WARNING that simlock.ta file is ignored. I have a Sony ericsson arco IS11S tied to AU KDDI Japan. Does it mean the sim lock cant be removed?
