Help I accidentally flashed a wrong kernel to my xperia SOLA MT27i. It won't turn on now and PC can't detect it either.

Please advise.
I suppose the phone is off now?

If so try: download stock ROM and put it in flashtool/firmware, start flashtool, choose the stock rom with wipe data, vol - and put USB in so you can enter flashtool mode and flash official ROM.

I've tried connecting sola to PC but it seems like flashtool can't detect it. Is there other way to connect it to PC so flashtool can detect the device? I already downloaded stock firmware

1) Hold power + vol up until you feel the phone vibrates 3 times.

Quickly hold power down, and shove the USB wire in.

It should detect your phone in flashboot now.

2) Alternatively, after the phone vibrates 3 times, keep a hold on vol up to get it into fastboot. Then flash the correct kernel for the rom you have.

Note that ICS, GB and CM roms all use a different kernel. Make sure you have the right one.

3) Lastly, if your phone's bootloader is still locked, you can just repair using SUS.
