The LT28h never came with GB if I remember correctly. You might be able to flash the .111 GB firmware (exclude baseband) then follow the rooting procedure and flash to the LT28h ICS ftf (you can include the baseband if you want) and see if that works for you. Theoretically it should work as long as there is no issues flashing the LT28i firmware onto a LT28h

i had similar errors couple times, and im not sure if im going crazy, but it looked like i was holding volume down for short time, like i was releasing it to fast, and next time when i was holding it for a bit longer everything was ok

this will appear only if your cell phone's boot loader is locked...
unlock the bootloader and simlock will be turned off and your flashing will continue.
also right click on the flashing software and run as administrator after unlocking the boot loader.
regards

Um no bootloader lock has nothing to do with flashtools when flashing a stock ftf. You can flash with a locked bootloader all you want if you are flashing a stock firmware ftf.
