How to enter flash mode

Hold Volume Up, then connect to the PC. If done right, blue LED will show up.

Installation

I use Android recovery package, however it works if flash by Fastboot

To install:

$ pmbootstrap build linux-sony-sumire
$ pmbootstrap build device-sony-sumire
$ pmbootstrap install --android-recovery-zip
$ pmbootstrap flasher --method=adb sideload

Then put your device into recovery, and enter sideloading mode.
