Guide: How to use flash tool with Xperia L [In Depth Guide]

Hey guys am here to show you basically how to use a flash tool with our Xperia L  

Q. So why is a flash tool needed....
-> hmm, for flashing rom's... yeah of-course and also to unlock/re-lock bootloaders.


So lets get started :

Note : Disadvantages of unlocking bootloader? ( Doesn't matter if you have backed up your TA)
>> You may void your warranty.
>> You may loose some proprietary vendor software such as Bravia Engine, Download Music info etc. due to removal of DRM security keys.
>> OTA updater may refuse to update your device and pop up a 'Device's software modified' message.

First of all download flashtool from : Search it / Google it

>>Then, Install it.

After that run your flashtool.

Then, If you want to unlock your bootloader then proceed with following steps :
>> Search for Unlock bootloader Sony [Official site]
>> Then follow the instructions and receive unlock code.
>> Then go to flashtool and click BLU button

 Then, Power off your phone.
>> After that connect you phone via usb simultaneously press volume down button

>> No indicator will glow

>> Flashtool put you unlock code.
