Try to flash in flashmode with Flashtool utility. It should work! I revived an Xperia S once with about the same problem (it even didn't charge properly anymore).

ok man, now you should unlock bootloader, its a nice shot, so if you have problems later, you can flash a ftf firmware or a custom firmware
sorry for the bad english :D

Send from LT22i Xperia P using xda premium
i would like to....but it will void my warranty......and if something happens to my phone i would not be able to send it back where i bought it.........but i will think about it.....

Thanks for the tip devilakos, I ran into the the exact same problem today with my girlfriends brand new phone! I thought i would have to take it back... thankfully SEUS flashed it just fine and it boots into ICS now.

Cheers
