hey guys . im still waiting ...
Try using a different usb port on your laptop or a different usb cable. Sometimes flashing may fail due to damaged usb port or cable. Also try using the usb cable that sony bundled with your phone (I used LG cable and didnt work for me). If that doesnt work, it seems that your battery is dead.

Try locking your bootloader first (If it possible through fastboot). Looking at the errors the flashtool is giving, it seems like the flashing stops because bootloader is unlocked. Even if you read flashtool thread, it says bootloader should be locked (as far as I remember, havent visited the thread since a long time)

Okay the problem is getting worse. Have you tried to unlock your bootloader again? If not, please try so. I have a final option for you to decide.

Please understand my posts correctly. Are you currently on an unlocked bootloader? Or if you can confirm it is locked, do you manage to be able to unlock the bootloader through the Flashtool?

I can't really help if I don't know the current state of your bootloader
Your last option here is to retry flashing a stock ROM FTF onto your phone. I hope it will work. [Choose your desired stock ROM based on your XSP model here]

My intention or objective right now is to have you successfully boot up your phone and restore it without relying on flashtool so much.
Since you said your bootloader is unlocked, you'll now left to flash DoomLord's advanced kernel that will give you recovery access.
Because my understanding is limited, based on your posts earlier, it seemed you indeed tried to flash a kernel via fastboot but your phone died. Based on multiple logs, there are also multiple errors that seemed to be involving hardware. And due to that kind of advanced log error I must apologise and tell you that I am now unable to help you.
Your log listed so many errors, it even unable to detect the model number of your phone, nor the current state of your bootloader (on newer posts).
If you wish to try my last suggestion, do said so. Otherwise, I have to back myself out of this since it is not my expertise.
I am very sorry

i know that situation is sucks i know and thank you for helping me to this step and i'm so much own you.
but last question i found a post for fastboot unbricked my type of phone but i dont undrestand small part of it and maybe it's help others
boot.img -The main kernel and initrd
recovery.img -A 'backup' kernel, initrd, and OS 4 sysm recovery/maintanance
sytem.img -The main OS
userdata.img -User data and settings
splash.img -Has Boot image. can be splash1 as well.
cache.img -Temp storage
...there can be similar partition names depends on your device type.... but basically these 6 partitions constitute a ROM. Copy all of (6) files to .android folder. (Henceforth, we can use this recovery.img as stock recovery for your device.)
"As your device is bricked/corrupted, we need to erase all old Partitions and flash (rewrite) new partitions that we have extracted from Update zip and placed in .android."
(1) Lets erase all partitions first (one by one)using: fastboot erase <partition>
Quote
C:\.android>fastboot erase system
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot erase recovery
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot erase boot
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot erase userdata
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot erase splash
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot erase cache
Successful
(2) Continuing with Flashing new partions using the Images copied in .android:
Command: fastboot flash <partition> <partition_name.img>
Quote
C:\.android>fastboot flash boot boot.img
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot flash system system.img here people gen. get stuck
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot flash splash splash.img
Successful
C:\.android>fastboot reboot
If all successful, Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the Factory State. Cheers !!!
...If you are Unable to flash 'system.img' successfully...
Reason: Your device is not allowing to format and rewrite 'system' partition manually. If your device is Rooted then probably such failure will never occur.
Let's overcome this Issue as well...Try Following...
First, Understand current State of Device...
We Wiped out old partitions and Flashed new partitions except :-\ system :-\ So No System on your Device at present.
What we will do now..
We will now wipe all partitions again
We will then flash only recovery.img saved in .android folder
We will use update.zip saved in .android folder to Flash it using SD Card.
We will copy update.zip on SD Card (using adb). If you can do it manually using a card reader skip step-II in below process.
Step-I: Wiping 'partitions' and Flashing 'recovery.img':Let's wipe all partitions again:
Quote
C:\.android>fastboot -w
C:\.android>fastboot reboot-bootloader
C:\.android>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
C:\.android>reboot
Step-II: Copy update.zip on SDCARD
Quote
C:\.android>adb push update.zip /data/sdcard
(Let the process complete. It will take damm much more time !!!)
Once you get 'Successful' message..your update.zip is on your SDCARD. If this is tidious then get a Card reader and copy Update.zip to SD Card directly and replace in Device.
Step-III: As you can't manage to see what is happening on screen(No Display) hence Don't do mistakes here, read carefully and follow exactly:
1.Reboot Device into Recovery Mode:
On cmd type:
Quote
C:\.android>adb reboot recovery
2.Now Press 'Volume(-)' button ONCE. (Once means 'once only'-if you did mistake here repeat the Step-III)
3.Press 'Power' Button TWICEand Leave you Device for some 10 Minutes time.
If phone don't get alive in 10 Minutes Repeat Step-III again.
You may not able to see but Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the Factory State. Cheers !!!
Explaining Last Step:
We used simple logic in last procedure/ Its nothing but updating using Recovery Mode. Always remember Custom Recovery of Micromax A56/57 has following options: (May be diferent for other devics)
1. Reboot device
2. Apply Update.Zip from SDCARD
3. Wipe userdata on device/Factory Update
4. Wipe Cache on Device
As the default curser in recovery UI remains on Option-1 and we needed to choose Option-2.
Hence to select "Apply update for sdcard" we pressed 'Vol(-)' ONCE and then to Confirm and execute that option Tapped 'POWER' button TWICE.
Hope this Guide helped you or ...will Help you to help others !!!

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you can not flash the boot loader with the boot loader being locked (the uppercase "R").
Since it seems the genuine loader is present you better look for a FTF bundle without the loader and kernel to flash back the stock ROM.
And it seems like he didnt root his phone.You should root your phone and unlock bootloader first if its not too late..

Nope, since all of this happens in flash mode the state of the ROM (rooted, non-rooted, crashed, ...) isn't even of any greater importance. The only thing that's important is that the boot loader environment still works (for running flash mode).
I think the "UNROOTABLE" error Flashtool gives comes from the circumstance that the partition where the loader and kernel is stored can't be rooted due to the boot loader being locked.
Unpacking the FTF and correctly re-bundling without the boot loader / kernel parts should actually work to have a plain ROM-only FTF restoration file.
Same goes for the X8 - there are some FTF's WITH the boot loader (aka "baseband") parts and there's at least one where it's just the ROM.
Happened to me once on an X10. Wouldn't even show the Sony Ericsson logo. Constantly vibrated. I thought I had bricked it.
I tried flashing the baseband again & it came back to life.
Dear all,
I've had my XZ for 3 days.
I first unlocked the bootloader, using sony's website and instructions found here.
I then installed twrp [APP/RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.3.0 for lockled bootloaders installer.
I was able to flash [ROM] 15/03- RomAur v1.3.2 [ 1.A.1.350 ] [ C6603 ] [ APM - 18 TOGGLES ] [ONLINE] afte making a backup.
The phone worked great for 2 days.
Later, I decided to flash DooMKernel {JB}(v02)[20130310] and [RECOVERY] CWM-Based Recovery 6.0.2.8 for Xperia Z (Stock Kernel) [20130303].
I was able to boot, but my phone started bootlooping. Couldn't get it stable anymore.
I decided to try flashing CM10.1 and then later go back to stock.
I never was able to flash CM as I wasn't able to access my sdcard from fastboot and adb wasn't working on CWM.
I also fooled around with fastboot trying to flash stock boot (thinking the kernel had my phone going into bootloops).
After playing aroung with the phone, I must have let it go into critical battery state (i'm guessing).
Suddely, the red led started blinking and then the phone went dead.
Now, when I plug the phone, I get a stable red led, but the phone won't boot anymore.
I had vabrations on power pressing earlier. Now not even that..
The phone just sits there, waiting for the end of the world to happen.
I'm devastated. First time I brick a device (well it sure seems that way)..
Now, I can only hope someone has an idea.. Given what I've done with the phone, I think a can calmly say my warrenty is voided. So sony's support isn't much of a solution..
Thanks for your help.
EDIT:
I tried flastool. Can't get any greed led, but the phone is detected in flash mode.
Now, flastool is stuck on : 20/036/2013 09:36:44 - INFO - Reading device information.

I charged the phone for hours. Don't think charging it any more would help... But thank you.
Does anyone know if flashing stock FW with flashtool repairs boot and/or bootloader?
Thanks
EDIT:
WOW!
I don't really know how it happened (I think I pressed both volume buttons to enter flash mode with my phone) and it started flashing eventually.... Know it just booted up again.
I'm so relieved.....
Thanks anyway..
Hello everone,
I really need any advice i can get. I tried so much to make my Xperia SP C5303 work again...
This is the situation
- I doesn't boot at all into the System or Kernel.
- when i connect the charger or connect it to the PC it will show a red LED for about 5 minutes and then go into Flashmode (Green LED).
- after a few minutes it shows a red LED again, then Flashmode again etc.. It keeps doing this for days.. Even after didn't charge it for months...
- at this moment my bootloader is locked
So I often tried to flash a new firmware because i obviously can access the flashmode.
And it starts the flashing but every time it aborts about 34 into flashing system.
It works to flash everything except system... I excluded System (and TA) and it flashes everything. Then i excluded everything except System and it always aborts about 34 into the process of flashing System.
I tried with different ftf files and different versions of Flashtool... Still the same...
I tried Emma and it didn't work.
I relocked the bootloader (the device bricked while using MIUI just from one day to the other without me doing anything special) and tried Sony Update Service (SUS)... But it just says the device is up to date
I am soooo stuck with this problem
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has any idea how to recover my device then i am more than happy to try it
Just a step by step instruction how you would try to recover the device can help i will try it
Thank you all very much!

did you try reverting to 4.1.2? tried check / uncheck options like reset customization, partition image, TA partition etc while flashing.
guess you might have lost DRM keys. did u backup those?

Custom ROMs break offline charging on the SP. Seems like your phone battery is at 0% gets enough charge to start booting then runs out of battery before you can flash anything. I had this but was able to flash a new kernel, charge a bit more, flash the offline fix and then power down the phone using the button under the cover until it vibrates three times. Left it to charge for half an hour and then I could repair my phone by flashing a full ROM.

Thank you for the replies.
What is strange is that flashing everything except system works and takes longer than just flashing System. But while flashing system it always aborts...
So i am able to flash the kernel without problems but it still does show the same behaviour... And why does it then always automatically go into Flashmode?
But I will look for the offline charging fix and try it.
As for the post before: I tried every combination of options.. It is always the same.
And tried nearly everything mentioned in the Thread you posted as I found that thread too.
And I have a TA Backup but I think first I need to revive the phone before that is usefull. Or should i do anything with the TA Backup now?
Thanks again for all replies and i appreciate any further suggestions as I am still trying to get it working but slowly giving up

Flash a kernel with a recovery, boot into CWM, see if the phone charges in CWM? If it does, wait for it to charge for an hour then flash a new rom.
I don't know why it goes into flash mode, but it did the same for me when I had low battery. To explain I was on a custom ROM that I let go to 0%, but also vol button boot recovery didn't work on this rom (latest CM10.2). So as soon as I put it on to charge the led went red for a while and then it would boot. At first it would boot up to my lock screen, but the battery was at 0% so a shutting down message would instantly appear, even though a charger was connected.
It would then instantly reboot, but generally it wouldn't make it past the booting splash screen, because the charge was so low. It might do this one or two more times before going dead (charging red led). I left it overnight in the hope it would boot connected to the charger but it didn't happen.
I too knew I had no more than 45 seconds to do anything in flash/fastboot before the phone would power down - so I charged for a bit, as soon as it booted, I hard powered down and went into fastboot, flashed a kernel with CWM (Doomlord's I think), booted into CWM, navigated to the offline fix, flashed it, shut down and hoped it wouldn't boot again...the battery splash screen was very welcome.
Hello,
the advice with the broken offline charging was helping a bit
So because I can only access flashmode (not fastboot) (and am on locked bootloader now) I needed a kernel in the form of *.ftf.
I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682412 and flashed the C5303_12.1.A.0.266_C1-FW Kernel in Flashtool.
That indeed helped to charge more. That means that it stayed with a red Led for a long time but did not show anything on the screen. After charging it more I was able to flash the complete Xperia SP (C5303)_12.0.A.2.254_Generic_DE.with_loader.sin without errors.
I was already soo sure it was fixed but the same problems are there again...
-->No offline charging. (or at least this flashmode bootloop)
And right after flashing with some battery left I tried to turn it on again. And it showed the problem that I experienced the last time it was still working months ago. But I just now remembered that I had this problem because it was moths ago...
--> It shows nothing on the screen
That means that there is a very slight backlight illumination but nothing ever on the screen (also no bootlogo etc)
And when i was still on MIUI, shortly before I bricked it by trying to repair that problem, it had the problem too. The Rom was still working normally but it never showed anything on the screen. I could for example feel the vibration when I unlocked the screen so the rom, touch etc was working but nothing on the screen.
And now it shows some similar behavior. But nothing like a working system. (for example the pc doesn't recognise any device, what it should if it would have started the system) Just one vibration when trying to turn it on (that is more than it did before) and a slight illumination of the screen.
And now that the battery if empty again it is back to the flashmode bootloop...
So thank you for the tips but I am still stuck.
Because the system should now be intact I tried Sony Update Service and the repair option of sony pc companion but it still does say that the device is up to date / no software available.
I could try to flash the other kernel and charge it again, unlock the bootloader and flash Doomlordskernel. But does anybody have any idea, why there I still doesn't work and what could cause the screen problem?
Thank you all so much
Raffi
Update: I am again charging it with the 266 kernel and sometimes there is a white line on the most left side of the display from top to bottom...
Has anyone any idea what to do to get the display working again ?
Okay I flashed the .266 Rom and the screen problem is still there. But I got the idea to try out the MHL Adapter I have. And connected to my Screen it actually shows the display :0 So the Rom is at least booting now although the phone is still unusuable...
But there is a test that pops up every 2 seconds saying : "FACTORY STARTUP SERVICE - Please wait for on-screen POWER OFF button".
What can I do to get rid of this?
So maybe the screen is really broken? Bit it keeps displaying a white line... But nothing else... Or might it be a problems with the software that controls the display?
Thank you

But after all what i did the warranty is gone for sure
It looks like this and touch is still working.
If I were you, I would simply wipe all and flash stock 4.3 (after locking BL). Everything back to factory.
If it works fine, there is nothing wrong with the phone.
if not - GO TO SONY SERVICE CENTER! You could be having a hardware problem and trying to solve via software.
My 2 cents.

The bootloader is already locked all the time and this is a complete Stock 4.3 (although Canadian and I am from Germany).
I never thought it would do anything again so this is already great progress
Nobody had this kind of screen problem before?
Assuming it is not hardware issues...also I assume that your phone worked when you bought it (before you start mucking around with it)
Try this:
take any ftf stock from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311964
.257 or .254 or .266 is fine. Don't reuse your existing stocks.
Flash it using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658952
Reboot.
Don't try to root it.
Let us know what happens...

I think you lucked out since you can't even flash...unless you have recovery and can install roms using it.
Sony centre is your best bet, sad to say...

So because I can only access flashmode (not fastboot) (and am on locked bootloader now) I needed a kernel in the form of *.ftf.
I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682412 and flashed the C5303_12.1.A.0.266_C1-FW Kernel in Flashtool.
That indeed helped to charge more. That means that it stayed with a red Led for a long time but did not show anything on the screen. After charging it more I was able to flash the complete Xperia SP (C5303)_12.0.A.2.254_Generic_DE.with_loader.sin without errors.
I was already soo sure it was fixed but the same problems are there again...
-->No offline charging. (or at least this flashmode bootloop)
And right after flashing with some battery left I tried to turn it on again. And it showed the problem that I experienced the last time it was still working months ago. But I just now remembered that I had this problem because it was moths ago...
--> It shows nothing on the screen
That means that there is a very slight backlight illumination but nothing ever on the screen (also no bootlogo etc)
And when i was still on MIUI, shortly before I bricked it by trying to repair that problem, it had the problem too. The Rom was still working normally but it never showed anything on the screen. I could for example feel the vibration when I unlocked the screen so the rom, touch etc was working but nothing on the screen.
And now it shows some similar behavior. But nothing like a working system. (for example the pc doesn't recognise any device, what it should if it would have started the system) Just one vibration when trying to turn it on (that is more than it did before) and a slight illumination of the screen.
And now that the battery if empty again it is back to the flashmode bootloop...
So thank you for the tips but I am still stuck.
Because the system should now be intact I tried Sony Update Service and the repair option of sony pc companion but it still does say that the device is up to date / no software available.
I could try to flash the other kernel and charge it again, unlock the bootloader and flash Doomlordskernel. But does anybody have any idea, why there I still doesn't work and what could cause the screen problem?
Thank you all so much

When you tried this - Because the system should now be intact I tried Sony Update Service and the repair option of sony pc companion but it still does say that the device is up to date / no software available. you don't need update. Instead use Repair or Reinstall option. If it fix the issue leave it stock so at least you can use it...
Thank you all. But I already tried the repair option in PC Companion but I will try it again when after I charged the phone to 100% to have some more time to play around.
And I still hope that it is software related but I am having less and less hope.
Because a new display is expensive Especially when the device is only 210€ now in Germany and I paid 350€ 10 months ago and only used it for a few months

I don't think anyone at sony SC checks for UL/root. I think you'll get it fixed under warranty

Just in case one of the devs works for sony in your hometown :laugh:- delete any root and recoveries in your phone before going in.
10 months - still under warranty.
Hi, i have xperia V (protoype). It was working fine, until i decide to put new Android (i was 4.0.4 on it). I don't have much of experience in flashing, but i did success already with my two other phones (ARC and P ), so i thought this time will be easy as usually. but...
phone was dead as stone..i spend more than week to trying all methods what i was able to find. now it's a big mess in my head and my PC, but now i made phone to start in recovery menu. thats all. tried install different roms, cyanomodgens-nothing... it just shows me SONY-->cyanomodgen and freez. at the moment flashtool can't see my phone.
if anyone can help me what to do( step by step), how to make this phone working again -i will be very happy person.

i can't tell you exactly how i did it- i did it with flashboot (boot.img or something), don't remember. didn't touch the phone for week, because i don't know what and how to do. as i said, i need step-by-step advice from beginning. if anyone will help me-i will be sooo happy
1. Is your bootloader unlocked - and did you test if your BL is/was unlockable?
If BL is unlocked correctly:
2. Try to flash another kernel in recovery,such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223534
Then try to install a CM-ROM for example.

p.s. tried another CM-and again: "sony"->"cyanogenmod"->blank screen (phone is on)

That sounds strange - because you said that service menu allowed unlocking bootloader. To be honest, I don't know what happens if try to unlock a bootloader which is not unlockable.
Regarding flashing: Take the NKernel from my link, open the ZIP file and extract the kernel.elf.
Then flash elf file via fastboot: fastboot flash boot kernel.elf
And then try to get into recovery and then try to flash a CM ROM like this from your external SD: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/39793/cm-10.1.3-RC1-tsubasa.zip (10.1.3-RC1).

It's in #7 where I asked you the first time to try another kernel!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52279445&postcount=7
Try installing the ROM with NKernel recovery, otherwise you can flash the boot.img from the CM ROM (inside zip, also via fastboot). Can you install the ROM with one of the kernels?

ok... i installed kernel.elf, when i reboot into recover mode i was unable to choose anything-touchscreen doesn't respond, buttons does nothing aswell.
i'm sure i do everything ok, but every time phone stuck on second screen after "sony"
after flahsing boot.img phone stuck on first screen"sony"
p.s i don't know if that is important, but almost every time pc trying to instal drivers, but...MTP drivers was not instaled

That's normal, you can't boot a CM Rom with NKernel (which is for stock 4.1). You always need the right kernel for every Rom (and Rom generation - a CM 11 kernel won't boot with CM 10.2).
It was just to test if recovery is working. But you say it doesn't respond? Of course tochscreen is not working in CWM! You have to navigate with Vol up/down and enter via power button. I hope you know that?!
Go ahead and try different kernels/Roms. Like this: http://aokp.co/devices/tsubasa
Install boot.img from zip via fastboot, go into recovery and try to install the AOKP Rom from your externel SD card. Does recovery work? Can you install Rom?

yes, i know have to use vol + -, but noone button works.
one more q.. it doesn't matter prototype phone or not? uufff.. i'm almost give up. looks like i'm doing same and same every time and no effect.
thanks for helping and not leaving me alone with that head pain
p.s. just installed boot.img, but when tried to run recovery-just dead androbot appears on the screen
Sorry, but I've got no idea.
I never had the problem that a flashed kernel's recovery is not working - and I don't know why. Sorry.
Must have to do with the Flashtool message that your bootloader cannot be unlocked. There is sth. really strange...

when i flashed ftf (flashmode), phone is not responding at all ( just one vibro when press on button) and screen stays black.
Hello, I Have Tmobile C6606
So here is what i did:
-I first rooted
-Then I installed TWRP
-I then tried to install a ROM and followed "Flash official Sony's 4.2.2 10.3.1.A.2.74 or 10.3.1.A.2.67 with flashtool"
-So i picked up Xperia Z (C6603) 10.3.1.A.2.74 T-Mobile NL ( Dont know what I was thinking... I should of known.)
-Flashed it with Flashtool and now it boots up in a different language AND after I unlock the lock screen
it goes black and reboots ><. I cant get into settings or anything, Cant even see the homescreen.
I then found C6606_T-Mobile US_1272-8668_10.4.C.0.814_R12C and tried to flash it knowing that I had messed up
with a different firmware from NL. BUT this is all I get:
- Device connected in flash mode
- Selected Bundle for Sony Xperia Z (C6606). FW release : 10.1.C.0.814. Customization : Sony
- Preparing files for flashing
- Please connect your device into flashmode.
- Opening device for R/W
- Reading device information
- Phone ready for flashmode operations.
- Current device : C6603 - CB5A1T7GGU - 1270-3839_R7B - 1269-5309_10.3.1.A.2.74 - TELEKOM-LTE_10.3.1.A.2.74
- Start Flashing
- Processing loader.sin
- Checking header
- Flashing data
- Processing of loader.sin finished.
- Loader : S1_Root_5ca3 - Version : APQ8064_30 / Boot version : S1_Boot_Lagan_1.1.1_1 / Bootloader status : NOT_ROOTABLE
- No bootdelivery to send
- Ending flash session
- Flashing finished.
- Please unplug and start your phone
- For flashtool, Unknown Sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings
- Device connected in flash mode
I know I messed up and I am hoping there is a fix for this, Any advice or Ideas are appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for your time and quick response
I can now sleep in peace (its 12:43AM)
I have Sony Xperia Z c6603 (Vodafone IT). I am attempting to flash ftf to have it access the US bands. I have tried:
10.5.A.0.230 C6606 Customize US and C6506 Customize US;
10.4.C.0.814 C6606 T-mobile US (i do have a tmo sim);
14.4.A.0.108 c6806 Customize US; 10.4.B.0.569 c6506 Customize US. All downloaded through the "Check updates" tool in Flasher by Androxyde. None of these attempts have been successful. They have all be attempted several time. Right now I have my phone charging and it is stuck in a reboot loop. My latest attempt was the 10.4.C.0.814 C6606 T-mobile US. I get the t-mobile screen and even gets me as far as the lock screen, but then just black and moments later a reboot. The first time I try to boot my phone after flashing 10.4.C.0.814 C6606 T-mobile US (before the boot loops begins) I did get a dialog box staying "Process system isn't responding. Do you you want to close it?" wait button or OK button. Frankly I would like to have the c6506 or the c6806 firmware, but t-mobile is getting me a tad further than the other versions.
However the only common denominator between every attempt is the follow text in the log
20/004/2014 11:04:23 - INFO - Ending flash session

I have been re-flashing this thing over and over and I have repaired it with Sony Mac Bridge a couple time. After the repair and before I semi bricked this thing, I did check debugging and unknown sources. That was several attempts ago, though. I have not been able to boot the phone.
Any suggestions?
p.s. i have also tried to flash ftf from the link you provided and have had no luck with those either. I am going to try that again while I wait for the cyber forum gods to send me any suggestions.
