You can use the many guides which are stickied to the forum about how to use SE Tool and XS++.

Firmware is in Download Area, but now you can't download firmware because Download Area is curently disabled.

This is guide for flashing with XS++ 3.1:
XS++ 3.1 Guide-Flashing,Customizing,Recovering - Top Sony Forums

You can also use Sony Ericsson Update Service to update phone's firmware, but it will upgrade phone to CID 53.

Depends...newest version is R8BC004 but it is branded T-Mobile. Newest GENERIC is R8BA024. Hope this helps. I have got the R8BA024 on the same phone and it works good

The problem...? your phone is CID51 and it must be CID52
Connect it to XS++ and accept the CID upgrade to 52
Then....Do the procces again
