I bricked my Sony Xperia XA2 and I hoping that you can help me.

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I do not read Russian, so I am unable to use the link for ftf firmware. Is ftf firmware different from the Sony stock firmware bundle? I downloaded the appropriate Sony firmware bundle using XperiFirm.
Thanks for the link to the flash tool guide - I will follow that.
Thanks,

Thank you for the suggestions. I downloaded flashtool (V0.9.25.0) and used XperiFirm within flashtool to download the ftf. All went well until the step where flashtool waits for Flashmode. When I connect my XA2 to the USB cable with the Vol Dn button pressed the XA2 does not go into Flashmode. The only thing that happens is the power LED briefly blinks green about every three seconds. In the past I was able to put the XA2 into Flashmode. But after I switched slots (A/B) I apparently lost the bootloader.
Suggestions?
PS: I verified the cable and drivers using my second XA2 and Emma (the Sony update/backup tool).
PSS: I tried all single button combinations after Vol Dn did not work, and tried waiting for about 30 seconds for each button combination.

(04-06-2019, 12:38 PM)oldguy327 The phone is in the same state. When I press the power button I get a short blink green on the power LED, then nothing. If I hold the volume + and/or - and power I get the same. If I press any button combination and plug in a USB cable the power LED blinks green about every 3 seconds. No access to fastboot.
I installed Xperia-Companion and tested it using my 2nd phone and XC recognizes my 2nd phone - but does not detect my bricked phone.
