Fastboot flashing of Xperia 10 IV and 10 V

Didn’t worked either, because:
I made a stupid mistake. I didnt put the blob to the directory, where the Sailfish-Image is. After copying it to that directory and flashing again from there the phone boots up again.

I had some initial problems flashing my Xperia 10 IV and tried the OPs commands. At first it looked like they were working but now my phone is always showing

”Your device is corrupt
It can’t be trusted and will not boot”

How do I get back to start the flash process again?

I’m on a linux machine with an Xperia 10 IV

Does repeating the process doesn’t help?

No, but I just now found the description to flash back to Android with Emma and will try that as soon as I have access to a windows PC

On Linux you can try Xperifirm plus newflasher to flash to Stck Android. I do not even have a Windows machine

I bought another 10IV.
Tried to flash it with PC1 (OpenSuse), it didnt get a fastboot-connection.
Used PC2 (also OpenSuse). It worked, but after every fastboot command from the first post it lost connection and I had to get in fastboot-mode again and again. After final flashing the phone was in a strange bootloop (bootload-unlocked-message and than Sony-Logo) till I brought it to fastboot-mode again.
After that I used PC1 again and made the whole flashing again. It worked without problems. But after that, the bootloop started again.
No idea what is happening here.
On monday I get to my Home-PC (also OpenSuse…) with that I flashed the other 10IV (and the 10iis years ago) successful month ago - I hope I get it back to life with that.
