I'm having some trouble at that step:
- Device: select your phone model, e.g. 'c2004' for Xperia M dual (see 'Settings' > 'About phone' > 'Model number').

I'm trying to create and FTF file on flashtool 0.9.24.4 but after decrypting files, bundle create don't load anything on device selectors name list. I already uninstalled and reinstalled flashtool and the issue persists... After double click on it, the device selector poupup that shows is all blank.

How can I fix it?

Any ideas are welcome!

- Branding: Ur region or global versions...eg:GENERIC IN,GLOBAL,etc

Move all files from 'folder list' to 'Firmware content' by selecting them and clicking the right arrow button.
Click 'Create'.

...

In this stage, my "folder list" box is empty. (I have 4 "FILE_..."s, and I hit Convert, but folder list remains empty.)
What can be done to solve this problem?

    C2004 is not available in device list whar to do ?
    Yes, it won't be available because sony has removed it from their server. The best you can do is search here if anyone has put up their ftf links and then Download and install it.
