Hello deer XDA Devs and Members...

Bought a Sony Xperia P from a Friend for a few Bucks...
Warranty is way off, so i wanted to install another ROM on it, which worked perfectly...
Had Phantom Kernel 1.1.0 B Power Saver Edition + JB MoonBreaker 3.5 ROM installed.
Then, dont ask me why, me and a friend wanted to install another ROM and so, went to bootloader and... well... formatted everything >,<
that would not have been the problem, if we hadn't also formatted the SD Card, where the ROMs were on...

Well, however, i read though several Posts, Threads, Forums, whatever i found and tried almost anything, but it didnt work...

My Data:

On Phone:
Phantom Kernel 1.1.0 B flashed through Fastboot

System:
Win 7 x64 Ultimate on Laptop
with Android SDK,
Flashtool 0.9.10.2beta6 Bin4ry
and all drivers v1.0.2 installed from Flashtool...

What i'm actually trying to do is to connect the Phone to Android SDK to use the ADB Push Command to get my ROM back on the Phone, BUT...
no matter what i do, Device is not recognized from ADB/System when in Bootloader.

I can set it to Fastboot mode and its recognized in Fastboot
can set it to flash mode and its recognized in Flashtool..
but neither ADB nor the System itself will recognize the Phone when booted to CWM (from Phantom Kernel... 6.0.2.8)

However, i also tried to flash it via Fastboot and latest 6.2.A.1.100 ROM/FW/Kernel...
Does not work, what ever i do

Flashtool the same...
I can set to Flashmode, choose the 6.2.A.1.100.ftf File and start, but it will only prepare files and then stuck... and then, the phone reboots to not existent system... so... not working either

My last option would be to get my Phone back to ADB for Push... but how, if W dont even recognize it when i connect it?


Hope you understand what i meant :p
And hope you can help me somehow...

I cant get further and am out of ideas >;<


thank you very much!

sorry, forgot to write..

yes, my phone is ulocked and yes, i can flash any kernel i want and as far as the kernel has CWM onboard i can boot it to CWM recovery..., but thats fairly all, cuz no matter which kernel i have on, it wont be recognized in system/adb >,<


and as i wrote, its not a driver problem... i have all drivers and they worked before system went lost... but as the phone is not detectable anymore, i cant do anything..

device-manager doesnt show anything when i connect the Phone in Bootloader-Mode / CWM recovery
In Fastboot, its detected as S1 Fastbood and i can use Fastboot to flash kernel, but not system
In Flashmode its detected as S1 Flash Download and i can use Flashtool... but as i wrote, flashtool doesnt work somehow

You said you updated with EMMA, have you flashed the ftf with flashtool before?
Post flashtool log.
Also, you may try to extract system.sin from the ftf (it's a zip file) and flash with fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash system system.sin
I haven't tried it myself but it may work

nope, i didnt use EMMA... it tells me it cant update software cuz alteres software was found.. same as sony update service and pc companion
i used flashtool with both, the packed ftf file, where my phone just stuck and disconnected/rebooted without finishing the process or even starting the flash,
and with the extracted sin file, where the same happens...

with fastboot and system.sin, it tells me, the size would be too big to transfer and stops the process again..
this is for the 6.2.A.1.100 ROM/Kernel..
I can flash anything but the system itself

older roms lead to the same error >,<
and altered roms dont have sin archives which i could flash with fastboot...

so i still would need ADB access to my Phone to be able to push any ROM on it..
or a Stock ROM older and smaller than 6.2.A.1.100 i can flash with fastboot... but which i didnt find..

You might want to test flashing from an XP machine, my W7 and W8 PCs wouldn't keep connection when trying to flash, Flashtool would just drop connection everytime. Used an XP PC from work and presto all was good.

It's worth the try if you have access to Win XP.

Try install drivers from flashtool again. Then just open flashtool try to connect in fastboot and see ehats appear in the window.
