Hi, I am having this issue from last week.
Basically, I can not turn on the phone with the SIM card inside. Once the phone turns on, everything is fine. If i remove the SIM the phone turn on normally.
1- I did a repair with SEUS
2- I change the SIM card four times.
3- Once it is turned off I can turn it on connecting the USB cable and pressing the back button for a few seconds.
My firmware version is 1.1.A.0.8 there is no new updates in my area, my phone is unbranded and rooted.
The question is: Anyone else has this problem here?
I had this problem, i just updated my x10 mini to the last version 1.2.A.xxxx and solve my problem!
Good luck!

Thanks. But that firmware is not available in this zone yet... I will burn all the SE's offices Argentina.
You have to load the Generic UK one in the Mini android dev thread , then you can see the new update

Hi All,
my brother just got an Xperia X10 (without warranty) two days back, and it's been restarting itself over and over again sometimes.. sometimes it simply does not charge, and sometimes sim goes un-detected leaving "activating phone" on the screen.. whenever i re-install the os, the problem goes off for few hours then it comes back again. It has the R2BA020 update and whenever i run sony erricson update service, it shows me as the phone has the latest firmware so i always have to stick with R2BA020 firmware. I am thinking may be an upgrade to the phone might solve the issue with the phone. But i'm being unable to upgrade to any firmware like R2BA023 or R2BA026. I know R2BA026 has a wifi issue.. but at least 3G works and phone works..
Any help anyone? Thanks.
Sounds like it is the phone that is the problem and not the firmware revision. I and many others here are on R2BA020 with no issues.
You say that you have done a reinstall of this, was it the repair installation through PC Companion or SEUS? Later FW releases are only available if the network releases it or if you are rooted and dependent on what Firmware you rooted with (Generic, Combi, etc... and from what country).
for the phone faults i would try a new/different sim card first.
what network is the phone on ? is it branded ? your network might not of released the latest updates yet
why does it have no warranty ? SE offer a 1 years manufacturer warranty that goes off the serial no
If you're on Rogers I believe that was the latest (and first) firmware update. You won't be getting an updated version if that's the case.
It's bricked now
Hey Guys,
Sorry for the late reply. I was expecting to have email alerts if someone replies, but i had forgotten to enable email notifications apperently.
Whenever I got that problem, I used to re-install the firmware and then it works for a day or maximum two. but couple of days back, phone just went down while using it and when i tried to repeat the firmware re-install process, either SEUS nor PC companion detects my phone version. "It says device could not be identified. try again later". I tried to root the device and it fails with this error.
Code:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.lang.String.<init>(Unknown Source)

at X10flash.run2(X10flash.java:367)

at X10flash.main(X10flash.java:417)
Press any key to continue . . .
with the following warning little bit before that.
Code:

This is not a branded phone. I bought this device from someone returned from UK and he got this from T-Mobile UK. (at least thats what he said).
Code:
why does it have no warranty ? SE offer a 1 years manufacturer warranty that goes off the serial no
do you mean i have the warranty despite the fact that i'm not using it with t-mobile and i'm not the original owner?
any suggestion to unbrick this device is highly appreciated.

The warranty is country specific I have found. Contact sony of canada and se if they will foot the bill, otherwise you will need to ship it to the UK for service I am afraid. Is it a Xperia x10i ?

My father in law in visiting has an X10i (on 1.6) that he purchased from the Middle East. I've been trying to update through SEUS and no luck; it keeps saying that I have the latest software.
Questions:
1. Is the 2.1 update available for all X10i? or not yet all?
2. How can I check the phones region?
3. Should I update using one of the decrypted roms in the forum? if yes then can someone who's done recommend one please?
Thank you so much in advance.
first on the lock screen press ( Menu, Back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back )
then service info>Software info>
then you can see which software you got in your phone, if it says World Generic then it means that you should get the update.
My X10i is from the Middle East and my region was world generic, so I managed to get the update.
Tip: sometimes the SEUS says that you have the latest software (1.6) but when clicking on re-install it will install the device to 2.1 update
Thanks for the response. I did the the menu back thing, and it shows that my software is "Generic" not "world generic". I did a search for update on SEUS and SE PC Companion and still nothing, then I did a repair and it downloaded 1.6 again.
How can I update to 2.1?
Anyone? this is my soft v 1227-4612_r2ba026 generic
I've got the same code as you and have had no luck with SEUS or PC Companion.
I have repaired or installed with both Friday and Saturday and I just get 1.6 re-installed.
i have flashed my at&t x10a into Nordic generic and i still cant get it to update to 2.1
I am in Virginia, US. Software Update still does not find Android 2.1. I am still on 1.6.

Thanks for ur time
Hi folks
I used this app to unlock my phone (SGS2) from Three UK to Orange UK - Worked perfectly...! (Rated 5 stars in the market by the way)
Then (stupidly?!) I upgraded the firmware using the Samsung OTA update this morning to WKF4 (which went well) but now I get "No Service" when using my Orange SIM. I can put in the original Three SIM card and it works fine (eg I get service and can make calls), when I insert my orange the problem returns.
I do not get a box asking for my unlock code a second time when inserting the Orange SIM.
Does any kind individual have any pointers or ideas?
Some extra information: I notice that Im prompted to download a further update (which I havent done yet). Im running on Android 2.3.3 (Yes Im rooted and have SU permissions according to Titanium backup)
*#SIMLOCK# shows everything is OFF
Any pointers welcome
Thanks
Dont know why you did not install a non branded firmware since you seem to be using UK 3 and Orange sim cards.
Search in this forum there a a few unlock tips and apps..
Great, thanks. Ill take a look.
Im new to the SGS2 (HTC Desire before) - I had planned to install a generic firmware - Perhaps that should be the next thing I try to see if it makes any difference.
Hey, I have an SK17i locked on Orange that I flashed with stock UK firmware .58 (2.3.4) from WotanServer and now the phone wont accept ANY sim cards, nor connect to any WIFI signal.
It also loops in the regard that it wont save settings and asks to select language everytime I start the phone.
Ive tried a few different firmwares from the wotan server. Tried using flashtool with firmware downloaded from these forums, with no success.
Any help really appreciated as im struggling to find what the problem is.

try this firmware and flash it using flashtool
make sure to wipe everything and don't exclude anything
Download Sk17i Firmware Global
Thanks for the firmware, I did try it but I had the same issues.
I resolved it now, I had to unlock the phone (Network SIM Lock) and now its working fine. I wouldnt want to guess at why the original SIM that came with the phone wouldnt work on a debranded firmware but maybe someone here will incase someone else bumps into this problem.
Thanks.
