Start the update process again and choose repair option.
Connect to SEUS and repair your phone.

I am in some desperate need of help here before I ship my phone off to the SE Repair center. I tried updating my software version to the latest Gingerbread version through the PC Companion. During the update, the PC companion threw an error saying "Software update failed."
Haven't had time to read up on who else this may have happened to, but tried upgrading this morning via PC Companion and I recieved a fail message, asking to try again. Turned phone on - get the SE logo, then the bottom half of the screen looks like someone stepped on it - weird yellow graphic appears all scrambled! Will not boot up and my PC detects then un-detects phone continuously! Help! How do I fix this? Seems all the upgrade did was wipe my phone. Now it's but an empty piece of pretty plastic!!
Someone please help me!!

arunrv could you exactly tell me what you did to work the phone ?
because i have the same problem as you
I downloaded "update service" software from Sony website.
Download it and after installing, launch the software.
The software will guide you to how to connect your phone. (Initially don't connect your phone)
Software will take care of rest of the process.

Arun

Thanks it works but a little unstable. because first i tried 2-3 and it gave me an error on both ways (factory settings or just update) by the way i tried many diffrent ways then i tried again with se update service with factory settings and it worked.
I think the problem is root. this version doesnt love root and my phone was rooted. if anybodys phone has root first remove it then update urs phone.

Download firmware ftf file and simply flash it from flashtool.
Or use wotanserver.

Hello,
I do not wish to annoy anyone. I seek some help. Before posting and mostly before doing anything with my phone I read all information I could find.
Unlocking bootloader (hardware and official way), rooting, the autoinstaller for CWM. The flashtool, the wotan server, SEUS.
Yesterday I've upgraded my firmware via PC Companion to .62. However this unrooted my phone and I wanted to go back to the old firmware so
I flashed it with WotanServer
After this my phone didnt start and after the SE logo a sign with excalmation mark and phone appeared.
Please, help me. Tell me what should be my next step. Can i fix it myself? Should i pay to someone in the local shop with neon advertisment to fix it?
Please.
Anton.
Download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Software), and repair your phone with it.
I got same problem with WotanServer, SEUS solved it.
@tomassz82,
can you point me to a working link. All links that I have for SEUS redirect me to a sony support page?
I also forgot to mention that I have done a backup via CWM but I don't know how to restore it as I can't go into CWM anymore.
Ok. Fixed. Thank you tomassz82 for the hope
For future reference: SEUS is an outdated piece of software.
Sony Ericcson PC Companion is its successor.
Intially PC companion fails to recognize the device because it's not turned on completely (by completely i mean booted to the Android).
I restarted my computer. When I connect the phone and start PC Companion somehow, seemingly at random it still doesn't allow to update but it will recognize it once or twice and offer repair. Do it!
Wipe personal settings bla bla..
I could not manage to repair the phone with PCC, but SEUS worked like a charm.
@tomassz82
Which verions of SEUS are you running and where did you downloaded from?
Phone : Sony Ericcson Xperia X10 MiniPro
I think i made a mistake while i was trying to install a custom .zip from xRecovery! Now my phone starts up but after the Sony Ericsson logo a small white pixel blinks in the bottom right corner of a black screen than it gets stuck at lock screen , i cant slide because the touch screen don't work ! Any ideas how can i get back to a stable firmware ?!
*I tried with SEUS but the application gave me an error! Than with PcCompanion i cant connect the phone !
* I tried with flash tool ( hold back button and connect the usb until the green light is on) but i don't know what to do next !
Thank you

Try with this, follow instructions and you have pictures tut. . .
Thank you but ...
I tried 3 times and keeps showing me this !
Do you plug in the usb with the phone on before ore do you have it of and wait for the instructions. when you use repair you chose the phone and then connect. it looks like you are doing a normal update.
I did like it's said in that thread ! Open PcCompanion click update than repair phone , waiting for pc companion to get "something" from the internet , than i choose my phone Xperia X10 mini pro (u20) the phone is turned off(battery removed for 10 sec) than while i press the back button i plug in the usb cable the green light is on and the program tries to start but tell me is no software for my phone
That's funny. If you can choose the phone it should force a firmware install.
I had som problems with a friends E10 but i had problems with the download from SE. After about 5 tries it worked.
Is it the latest Pc Companion?
Is it possible to access xrecovery?
I will try a few more times maybe would work ! It's the latest pc companion downloaded from sony ericcson website , i cannot access xrecoverr after sony ericsson logo even through i keep pushin the back button the black screen with that white sqaure appears !
Edit:
PC Companion :
Version: 2.02.015
File size 25.7 Mb
I tried for 10 times to make it update/repair and still don't want to find that damn update/software !

Sony Ericsson Update Service http://downloads.uptodown.net/dm/update_service_setup-2.11.4.11.exe
Mine always shows 'your phone is already up to date. Do you really want to reinstall your phone ?' or something like that..
This is just experimental, since you said SEUS don't work for you..
Try unlock your bootloader (using flashtool) and flash custom kernel.. After that, try SEUS-ing it again..
Note : this is totally experimental.

Flash tool stuck at 17% help?
Hi all,
Today Sony Bridge for Mac noticed me about the availability of the update to .75 firmware. Good, I think.
The update procedure starts as usual.... but, when it was downloading the firmware, a popup saying "A problem in the update engine occurred. Please contact assistance." appeared . Actually I'm Italian and I don't know if the message sounds exactly like this in English, but, well, it makes sense.
From that moment on, my Xperia S is boot looping.... It displays the yellow icon with a phone and nothing else.
I'm very angry, the phone is not rooted and I'm also waiting for the replacement of it with a non-yellowish-display one.
Do you guys have some suggestion on how can I unblock the phone?
Thanks in advance!
Flashtool.

At Sony PC Companion, go to support center, click start at phone software update, then click repair my phone ... It is impossible to brick a Sony or Sony Ericsson phone , just use the PC Companion, it will repair for you ...
But for MAC, i think you may face a bit problem ... and I suggest to use Windows to do the update ...
