THIS TUTORIAL IS ONLY FOR HARD BRICKED DEVICES.
HARD BRICK MEANS NO FLASHMODE AND NO FASTBOOT.

IF YOU HAVE WARRANTY,STOP READING THIS, GO THE SONY SERVICE AND PLAY STUPID.
AS AFTER OPENING YOUR DEVICE, YOUR WARRANTY IS 100% VOID.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE.
YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

Let's get started.
1. Download the package HERE
2. Install ggsetup-3.0.0.7.exe HERE
3. Open the back cover of your device.
4. Find the test point (See attachments).
5. Disconnect a battery, connect a usb cable.
6. Using the paper clip connect your test point with the GND. I used the metal shield in the middle of the motherboard.
7. Open the device manager, you should see SEMC Flash Device. If no, you did something wrong.
8. Disconnect your phone from computer.
9, Repeat the step 5.
10.Run the s1tool and select S1 EMERGENCY Mode for the phone type.
11. Press the flash button, and choose that file [ u downloaded] for your device.
12. Press testpoint ready and repeat the step 6.
13. Remove the testpoint and press READY, when program will ask you to do so.
14. If flash was successful, you may disconnect your phone from usb, connect your battery and try to boot.You may have to charge your battery.
15. Now you can flash your device normally using software.

Will try this. My Z has been dead for more than 2 weeks now.
Thanks for the guide and the files.
@touseefiqbal: Hi Bro. I don't have SEMC Flash device on device manager. Am I doing it wrongly? Help!
When connecting the usb cable to the computer, are you supposed to have a red LED? I didn't see any in mine. :'(

@touseefiqbal.
Thanks for the response. I am almost going to throw away my Z.
Yes, I took out the battery as instructed. Took me a while as it was really stuck to the board.
