[Q] Stuck on Flashmode? topic

So, I'm following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xper...b-ubl-t2933298

I'm stuck on the Flashtool part, I boot it into flashmode (led flashes red then green then goes off) and then I attempt to flash kernel only FTF onto my Z1 but it gets stuck at "Phone ready for flashmode operations".
Below is my Flashtool log on "INFO" & "Debug" level.

I'm really clueless on how to proceed with this, I can't find anyone getting the same errors as I am and as far as I can tell, I'm doing everything correctly.

Also, just FYI: I booted Win8 into non-driver enforcement mode and installed the Flashtool drivers from there with no errors.

Code:
