Phone booting problems - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just updated my phone through SEUS, now it wont even get passed the boot screen where it says Sony Ericsson. If it does, it will just crash at the lock screen
Actually, I just tried taking out my SIM and booting the phone. It worked. What does this mean?
another edit: now it crashes randomly without the sim.

try reflashing your phone or restoring it. Since you just updated it, you don't have much to back up.

Okay, so now my phone wont even turn on at all. When I hold the power button the green light flashes once, then the phone vibrates and then nothing. I'm really having second thoughts on the x10.
And by restoring/reflashing meaning just repairing through SEUS? If so, I've done that like 7 times.
So my phone will not work properly with a sim. It usually just does not get past the boot screen and crashes, then tries to boot again. On rare occasions it will boot with the sim, but if I get a phone call, or I try to call someone the phone will crash.

Touch Pro abruptly stopped working; won't boot.

So here's a peculiar incident:
I have a CDMA TP with a stock ROM and a few basic apps I gathered from these forums and others. I've had it for less than a week.
Tonite, I went to check my text messages. Suddenly, the screen went black and the phone stopped responding. After pressing the power button and fiddling with the keys, I pulled out the stylus and did a soft reset. No response. Confused by this, I tried again, but still nothing. I removed the battery, and turned the phone back on. It froze at the "Touch Pro" screen with the rom/radio/etc info at the bottom. After repeating this a few times I decided to do a hard reset. So, I turn the device on and perform the hard reset. By this point the TP is only turning on SOME TIMES, and I have to take the battery out and put it back in often just to get it to start successfully. So, I finally get the device to boot up and it starts to configure WinMo. Suddenly, while configuring, it freezes. Now I try to turn it back on, and nothing happens.
Basically the device is stuck like this, shifting between not turning on at all and turning on but freezing at the "Touch Pro" screen.
So, my question is, what the heck is going on here? Has anyone else had this problem, or does this sound familiar to anyone? Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
p.s. Yes, the battery is fully charged.

Time to take it in and get a new one.....
Same problem here phone started b not coming out of lock mode. Backlight is on but no display on screen (if i tilt the screen left and right i can see light coming from behind) did about 6 hard resets and still same problem. also power button works whenever it wants to. this phone sucks @ss, i want my mogul back. on a second note my replacement will be here on wednesday.
Touch Pro stock rom purchased back in nov when it came out
yeah, i've had the same problem, i found if i hit my phone on the back or side and then batter pull and hit the soft reset while off, not the power button to turn it back on, it comes back on with color on the screen not just blank black screen with backlight, this works mostly every time, but when it doesn't, i just hold the power button down and do battery pull and hit the power button and it works, its like its got a combo of things you have to do before it works.. weird
Boot Up
I have also had similar problems. I for some reason sometimes have to remove my SD card and boot up without it for some reason. Not all the time, but every once in a blue moon. Not too sure how that affects anything, but you may try that too.
well i started a thread here ***help*** because i kinda have the same problem.
i downloaded some cabs, nothing fancy but i had some problems with a theme i downloaded. when i went to deleted i couldnt..... to make a story short, i took it to the sprint store where they tried to do a master reset/ hard reset and it wont take it. it wont do a thing... they say some important files are missing...
the phone works but not the way it should... the time on the home screen wont show up. and some other small things...
dont know how this happened but i would like to know... im worried about new programs to the phone now. ( getting a new one)
still want to see if i can fix this one.

Have you tried re flashing the ROM?
it wasnt HTC's fault for your phone's not booting...thats what happens when u try to mess with the hardware too much and you dont know what your doing
Would you want to sell???
Reboot Brick HTC process
****DOn't take battery out after hard boot***
1.just watch videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk56olMkCtU and do what they do but dont take battery out. LEAVE phone STUCK on BOOT screen. Nothign else will move or work but you want phone just like that.
2. connect usb cable to active sync. (this may not link up but leave usb connected anyhow) Do not delete phone profile.
3.use rom like Download MightyROM6_Herman.exe avail at: http://www.lilrico.com/Mighty/mightyromblog/?p=454
4 although active sync is still attatched but may not be connecting. It will connect thru usb anyway when you run the rom software. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV2I2WAFkg4&NR=1
This worked and kept phone from cutting on and off. and restored ROM. don't know about original htc boot. but your phone will work under this rom for now and you can go from there.
hey thanks plain ole dumb, it works now.
man I thought it was over.
thanks again

[Q] LCD not powering on ?

so i have had this problem for a about a mouth wondering if anyone else has had it, the phone is running the viper rom 4.1.0 but has happened with earlier roms as well, i will get a phone call or text of just trying to unlock the phone, hit the top button and nothing happens, i have been able to answer the phone call when the screen is blank but cant get it to kick on, i end up having to hold power and volume buttons to force a restart into the recovery and do a system restart, sometimes it happens 2-3 times with in a hour sometimes i go a week without it happening. has anyone else been having the same problem ?

Screen completly distorted after brick and recovery

Hey all
I bricked my ulefone power 3s yesterday. Got bootloop (always reseted after 5 seconds) and could never go into recovery mode. This is "fixed". But now I face some mystical ****..
- Phone in a bootloop. Could not enter any other mode.
- Connection on pc always came and went due to the constant resetting every 5 seconds.
- Used Smartphone flash tool: Auto format flash and format whole flash. Took 3 seconds and Tool said success
- Phone didnt boot at all now. Black screen. No vibration when trying to power on. Nothing. Was able to connect to pc and keep the connection however
- Flashed official rom.
- "Phone finally boots..."
But.. I've never seen something like this
From boot to android menu, the screen is COMPLETLY distorted.
I dont know what to do anymore. What the hell is going on? The screen worked perfectly fine before. Even during boot loop. I didnt crack the screen. Nothing happened to the display physically.. Its literally before and after in terms of time it took.
I can still scroll down and up normally (but laggy) use functions etc. Its just that the screen is completly ****ed up. Im completly out of ideas.. Reflashing doesnt work. Problem persists.
Theres also this weird chinese text and key on the upper right corner. No idea what it means and never had it before.
See pictures...

Corrupt firmware

I bought a used Zenwatch 2 and after a week it stopped working. When I turn it on it sticks on the Asus splash screen. After talking to customer support and looking online it appears that the "firmware has been corrupted.
I made the mistake of not turning on ADB Debugging while it worked, and unfortunately the screen appears to be unresponsive so I can't even put it into Fastboot mode to turn ADB Debugging on. Of course to make it even better the watch is not recognized when I plug it in because it doesn't appear to boot enough. Since I can't get into anything it makes it impossible to reinstall the firmware.
You all are my last hope, does anyone have any insights into a way to get the phone recognized, or anything that may help? Please help me keep this from becoming a fancy bracelet.
When you first turn it on, swipe diagonally down from either direction to get into recovery or fastboot. I know you said the screen is unresponsive, but if you haven't done it before it can be tricky. Even on a perfectly working watch, I still have trouble getting it to work. Try continuously swiping as you hold the power button, even before the splash screen shows up. If you can get it into fastboot, unlock the bootloader and try flashing my ROM.

That seems to be what I am reading, but so far I have had no luck getting it to trigger into fastboot mode. I will keep trying.

Phone stuck on bootloop or isn't responding shortly after boot and crashes

The phone fell off a treadmill and went haywire.
If I don't do anything it's stuck in bootloop, powers up, showes the loading screen moving lines for ages and eventually restarts.
If I start tapping the phone (unplugged) eventually it boots up, and it like normal, but if I do anything too quickly it will give me an error "process system isn't responding" with options to exit or wait, regardless it will crash. If at any point the screen goes to sleep it will crash, so I have to keep interacting. This one time I managed to get to the point where I plugged in into my pc, unlock the phone, select data transfer and started phone repair using Xperia PC software but it crashed before software finished the download and then gave me an error. Sometimes when I plug it in at that stage it will crash. Then back to the loop unless I tap the screen (only works sometimes, but I haven't seen it boot without me doing it, could be a consistent coincidence tho).
If I hold volume up + power button when the phone is off, nothing happens. If I do it while it's booting it will vibrate 3 times, restart, and then turn off (the only way to exit bootloop basically) but doesn't lead me to a recovery screen or anything I can interact with. Phone is not flashed or anything. When it restarts it will blink the red light a few times. Is there any chance to recover data or even just the phone?
Thanks!
