Basically, my phone USB connector, is for some reason not recognizing anything being plugged into it. I have tried a different cable and i get the same response :/ NOTHING!
Plug into the computer - Nothing
Plug into the wall - Nothing.
I need to flash my phone back to stock, but the only method i can think of is via USB, Over the Air updates are canceled out via the current software I have on my phone. So is their any other possible way ?
Thanks
I suffer from exactly your same issue.. sad 'cause i now have a very expensive brick .. Already covered the topic in my thread, but there is no evident resolution...
I suspect the USB circuit and/or port is defective , or poorly implemented, and breaks easily...

I would go in to your service provider, and hopefully you get an idiot who doesn't realise you were trying to root your Xperia, and they might replace it for you.
Thing thing is, it was going to be sent back for a repair. When the tech guys look at my firmware , they will realise I have rooted my phone, i was hoping to Un-root my phone and then send it back .. Or will this not matter?
Is their not a way to flash my phone back to normal, via the SD-Card?? somthing must be possible if Over Air is Possible..
Any Idea's anybody please?? thanks

I don't know what it would exactly do, but in the Second card
&. Phone storage section of the settings app, there's a factory data reset button, try that.

Hey mate, ive sorted it out i phoned up the Network Operater, and explained I wasnt a satisfied customer, because Ive had the same problem once before (this time i sent it through phones4u with a 30 day wait before i had my phone back :/..... ) Nevertheless Orange currier are coming out tommorow between 6-10 with a new phone battery and charger. which i couldnt knock back (probs reconditioned) but nvm .
Will try and make my phone as clean as possible without any root settings. before take my phone away and probs fix & reflash the phone to factory settings anyway so i dont think it makes any odd's what i do now .
am quite surprised the woman on the phone offered me this type of service, as I got the phone from Phones 4 u, bet yet Orange are the company doing my replacement.
Funny quote from the phone call :-
"Are you sure you for the phone from us sir?"
"erm, yes"
"Ive never seen this message on the system before, its saying your not one of our customers"
"I must be one of your customer's otherwise you wouldnt have all my details"
"Yes thats right ill just ignore the message and send you the replacement"
is there still no solution to this because i need to ship mine back for service.
Have you tried adbwireless apk. Allows you to connect to your phone via adb over your wireless network. You maybe able to modify bin4ys flash tool and flash wirelessly?
Worth a try?

Hey why don't you try Zdzihu's recovery menu? You can flash some of the ROMS from Jerpelea without touching a computer... Of course you'll need to download the ROM straight to your device...
Sent from my X10i
I've got this same problem too. (appologies for multi posting, I did search first).
No response since the upgrade. I'll look into Zdzihu's recovery menu.
If anyone gets any news, please shout.
OK put Zdzihu recovery on and flashed to Jerpelea's lite rom without the need for a USB....... however the problem still stands! Plug in the wall charger and nothing..... plug in PC USB and .... NOTHING.
I got this phone as a prototype before they were released, by a mate in the industry. So have no warrenty to send it back with. But I love the phone so any more ideas?
I have left it switched off to preserve the battery until a solution is found.
I remain hopeful!

What usb cable are you using? Did you get one WITH the phone from a friend, did it come with another phone, or did you buy it from a store? I used to work at RadioShack and we had different usb cables for different phones. The connector may be the same, but the pin position in the cable can be different. A normal looking USB cable that would come with say, a motorola phone couldn't be used to charge a blackberry despite the connection being the same port type.

Did they fix it or give you a new one and were you rooted? I have the same problem with the broken usb but I rooted and stripped all the bloatware and now have no way to flash back to stock rom. I still have the Rogers rom but streamlined.
Does anyone know how to put stuff back on like Timescape. I have all the apks from this forum and installed all the timescape stuff but it doesn't show up in the app drawer. If I clean up the phone and send it back will they know it was rooted keeping in mind that it is still the stock Rogers rom just with less crap on it.
I think one solution, since you already have Zdzihu's recovery menu, will be to ask someone who is using Rogers to create a backup image and upload it some where. Then you can use the restore tool from recovery menu and you'll be set up with Roger's again. Unfortunately I cannot help you with this since I'm in Guatemala but probably someone else can... I hope you can fix it men.

My Xperia X10 is currently not working (see previous thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993785) and I still haven't been able to fix it.
I'm trying to use Flashtool to flash the generic X10 Firmware to my phone although
it's taking up to 4+ hours and then my phone battery dies and the flash is unsuccessful.
Why is Flashtool taking so long to flash a firmware to my X10? I've tried a few different computers and still the same problem.
Please Help. Thank you.

I cannot access my phone as of now, it's pretty much a brick. Holding the on button brings only a vibrate and thats it.
what about flashing a rom that you know worked on your phone, making sure you flash the right Baseband for that particular rom first.
EDIT: Sorry just read through you posts and you have probably tried this if you have flashed a rom to it!

not assuming you're silly. but you are making sure you have your finger firmly on the back button when you plug in the phone when flashing yeah? the simplest are often the ones that get you.

Read previous thread in original post.
The phone has crashed for some reason whilst using the FreeX10 Beta4 Rom and I cannot access the phone. It charges fine although I cannot turn on/access my phone.
not sure why the flash is taking so long. attempt to flash a different firmware possibly? Also do you have the latest flashtool?
Impossible to brick so you're not out of luck yet. Try flashing with latest flashtool 2.9.1
I'll attempt now with the Flashtool 2.9.1 beta. It's a shame that as soon as they unlock the bootloader my X10 decides to stop working.
EDIT:
'turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging' - It's impossible to access my phone to turn on USB debugging and unknown sources. What do I do now?

Attempt repairing your phone via Sony Ericsson Update Service. If that fails put a compatible basebrand and firmware on your phone. Make sure user data is wiped

Sony Ericsson Update Service does not recognise the product.
Not that I haven't attempted this but I put a compatible baseband and firmware and it took 7 hours in which it only flashed 4 items and then the rest flashed instantly which the phone displays blinking red light.

Try to use SEUS to repair phone if you can't boot your phone. Do not use PC Companion cause' it will try to detect your phone everytime you use it but your phone can't boot so PC Companion now useless. If you can't repair your phone, you have to bring it to SE service.

It will not detect your phone dude. You must select your phone from the list supported. It will tell you to plug your phone in while holding BACK key and after searching for update, you will have a notice about update or repairing.
Hello Guys!
My friend bought a SGS2 and he whanted to root it and to put MiUi on it. Now he unpluged it while it was in the Odin doing something with PIT...
It stopped and now he can't go anymore in the download mode and the phone remains black...
is that a full brick? is there any chance to run it again?
do you need more informations?
I looked throuth the threds but i couldnt find something like that...
i hope anyone can help
Will Samsung repair that with Warranty?
Can i know why he disconnected his phone during using something with Odin?!

It's not the most correct thing to do (actually, not at all, it was your friend's fault entirely, also voiding the warranty), but your friend can tell them that the device began to heat while charging, he unpluged it and it died, sometimes it happens...
As for the JTAG you asked on the other post, it's a physical connector inside the cellphone used to write the flash memory, it involves opening the device, pinning some terminals and programming via PC, it's pretty common on embedded devices to load the program for the first time.
There is still a chance to get the phone back to its senses!
you will need 2 people to do this
read all 5 steps then only proceed!
1. Remove the battery.
2.Start odin in your pc.
3.connect the mobile to the pc using cable.
4.keep pressing the keys required to get in download mode. i.e. power+home+volume down key.
5.ask someone else to put the battery in your phone keeping the keys pressed!.
if every thing goes right Odin will detect the phone Flash it with a good rom you know which works! and never take out the cell from odin when its being flashed until odin says Success!

Won't work if the PIT wasn't completed therefore leaving the device void of a bootloader, but it's worth the try, you have nothing to lose...

Afaik u never supposed 2 use pit options in odin for gs2 otherwise u end up with a brick anyway regardless if u remove the cable or not. perhaps read more and be more careful if u ever decide 2 flash again. i would not be happy with that friend lol.

Hi everyone
I´ve a problem, my usb port not working, so can´t charge ou even connect to pc.
EDIT: I´ve tryed with different usb cord ou usb chargers, same problem: can´t charge or connect to (any) pc. The problem is in usb phone.
Solution: go to SE support, Problem: X10 Mini Pro rooted and with modified rom.
So is that possible to flash an original rom (Vodafone Portugal) but using only the sdcard and xrecovery? Here i can get the original rom?
Best regards and many many thanks in advance.
All the best for you
I don't see any problem here. Charge your phone using socket in the wall

- Find a thread at x10 mp section for you to download the back up file for the stock ROM. I have back up for stock ROM but it is impossible for me to upload it. Sorry.
-Just download the back up file and put it in your SD cards folder which would be "clockworkmod" or "xrecovery".
-Run the recovery in your phone and restore the downloaded back up file.
-After doing so, you should have the stock ROM back.
-There you can FOOL the SE people
Hey, you can give them phone, and they will fix it. Why are you afraid giving them phone with custom rom? They will fix your phone and you'll have to pay for it. Rooting your phone only disables your guaranty for the phone. That means you'll have to pay for their help.
SEUS says new software already installed
When I connect my e10i to SEUS for flashing back to stock rom its says new software alrready installed. this is happening after unlocking the bootloader and flashing nAa-08 kernel to the phone. PLZ HELP!!!!!!!!

I have a GT-I9100M that is refusing to turn on. My computer cannot even tell when the phone is plugged into it.
I was following the guide located at
dropbox.com/s/6oiqm8909pwg6qt/For%20i9100G%20users%20only.pdf
to try to update my phone. I was using the Odin method with the 2 files linked under "using odin" on the first page of the guide.
Odin said something to the effect of "FAIL". I tried again, but ODIN got stuck, so after a while I unplugged my phone from the computer.
Now I cannot get a response from the phone at all. I have tried pressing power, holding vol.down+home+power, removing the battery. Even when I connect the phone to my computer, I get no response (My computer doesn't even recognize that the phone is plugged in).
Are there any steps that can be taken? Should I contact Samsung? I read something about a USB JIG... would one of those help? Is this a "hard brick"?
I am in Waterloo, Canada (it's near Toronto). If there are no other options, can anyone recommend a trusted repair service?
Thank you in advance and sorry if I am replicating an already existing thread! I searched and searched, but tbh I'm pretty worked up atm, so I may have missed it.
EDIT: On closer inspection, it seems the file I tried to upgrade with was for I9100G, whereas I have I9100M. I'm guessing this is the source of the problem?

Yes that was the source of the problem ...
Do you see phone connected in ODIN.. That is COM section turning Yellow ???
No, Odin can't see the phone
Bottom line is, if you can't get into download mode (vol down/home/power), your next best (very faint) chance is a jig. If that fails, you'll need to have a JTAG repair done, or return it to your telco/Samsung for repair.
The JTAG repair may well turn out to be the cheaper option given there's a pretty good chance Samsung will charge you to repair it, as using non-stock firmware on the phone voids your warranty.

Hi
If odin can not see your phone means you are not in download mode.
also you can use "Download Mode JIG" to put your phone in download mode if its not bricked. you can buy online.
Also you can make it @ home if you know about how to.

Also, any tips for approaching Samsung? I'd like to be honest with them, of course, but if there's a chance that they won't be able to tell what I've done, I might just say "it when dark when I tried to update it".
I'm with Rogers, but I bought the phone off Kijiji. I doubt they would help me...

Listen if the phone is still under warranty you can try approaching the samaung service centre and tell them that the phone suddenly switched off while using and then refused to switch on..
Since the phone cant be booted even to the download mode, they wont be able to check the binary counter so..
They might fix it for you or maybe if you are lucky they may get you a replacement!
I had a similar problem and they fixed it for me..

search it on google. its free but its not easy to use. if you dont nkow what you are doing yo could even make it worse. some one with a working phone needs sto get some hex files and stuff.
Thats odd, I read of some that flashed INT roms and were still able to turn on and use mskip's fix. Battery pulls wont do anything?

i have read the jig wont work on devices that show a blank screen.you can try it tho. worth a try. i was going to try it but by the time the jig gets to me id rather just go tomorrow and hope tmobile actually does exchange it.
JIG will be a no-go, your only hope is either to try and use Qualcomm internal tools (which are not found on the internet) to flash, or JTAG.
DO NOT TRY TO FLASH ANY INTERNATIONAL ROMS EVER, YOU WILL HARD BRICK ON THESE PHONES!

yup now i learned my lesson. the qualcom tool is the qpst i was talking about. but you need the files to flash to it. i think your files are lost bro. unless you send it to samsung so they can fix it. i dont think if they flash it will delete your files since they wont flash to the sd card partition. but then again im not sure if they will notice if you were rooted. next time im saving all my stuff into my external sd
Yea, now I just await the call from Bestbuy about getting more in. My JIG comes in tomorrow so we will see.
Not surprisingly to see people who ruin there device and want to exchange it for another. Of course even though it was there own fault for ruining it they shouldn't have to pay for the replacement.
Makes perfect sense for companies and carriers not to support rooting/flashing. Its bad enough already.

My phone doesnt turn on. the screen is blank but when i plug it in to the pc i could here the usb tone on my pc. i think you can flash back using qpst but i dont know how to use it and the files are different than the odin files. just go back to where you bought it and tell them it wont turn on. just dont say you rooted it.
these are the drivers but they are for 64bit windows:

That is the reason Motorola locked their bootloaders, and others have raised insurance premiums. Please don't lie. Its insurance fraud first of all. If you ruined your device by flashing non-stock ROM's and such its time to man up, and dish out the money for a new phone. Don't make other's pay for your mistakes/missfortune. Do some more research on the other method of flashing and see if you can fix it. I wish you luck.

that was not helpful:crying: and i dint lie. i told the truth. i said "it wont turn on" and they didnt ask why. and i guess you dont read much. its hard bricked meaning you cant recover it unless you have the software samsung uses. so stop trolling my thread bro. read and you will notice i have tried to recover it.
