The new flash tool 0.2.5, will flash both 1.6 and 2.1. It works a little different, you will need to read through 1st.
ive tried the new flash tool and the old. neither work. The old one flashes but same problem but new one wont even let me select the firmware to flash so i cant even try it out properly. and sues just lets me exit it doesnt let me repair like usual

1. Try PC companion.
2. Read this guide.
You need to create the ftf file from the sin files, under advanced see bundle creation.
Read the how to.
pc companion wont work as I need to have usb storage but my phone wont even turn on. I have created the ftf files and now flashing, hopefuly it works.
still the same . could it be that the cable got disconnected half way through the process? sorry i forgot to mention this. My brother pulled it out. am i doomed?

No you are not doomed. Calm down
1. Repair using SEUS (even if it says you have the latest software, reinstall it)
2. If that does not work, try PC companion.
3. If that does not work then use the flash tool. You can use the old version if the new one is not working out for you.
Before you do all of the above, take out the battery and wait 10 seconds. Then, reinstall the battery and try the SEUS. Good luck!
the thing is sues wont letme repair it just says exit. Normally you can repair but now it just says exit.

OK. Then try the older version of the flash tool. You can find it here.
Does it also say install? If so, press that button. If that doesn't work install PC Companion and try that method.
thank you very much everyone for the help. Its finally working. I used the flash unbrick and its fixed im so happy i thought that my money went down the drain.

Hey, 'm facing the same issue
Recently i upgraded my Xperia to "ThGo2 v16.0" from custom rom..
After some time the rom got unstable and restarted the phone, however it wouldn't boot up. Now i have completely black screen, all the time, with few red blinks
(I have tried all the solutions here:
1. SEUS : Says ur phone is already update and show Xperia arc in backgroud. No update available
2. PC companion: Tried all the tricks to start w/o connecting n all still the phone is not detected.
3. Flashtool, tried flashing it with 0.6.8 and 0.2.9.1
4. I have also used other tools like superclick, root / unroot and S1 tool (no of them worked)
Now, nothing is working with few red blinks and gree light..
Please help, my phone is converted into a black paper weight now....

FIX!
I had the same issue when I was experimenting with ROMs and Recoverys, but not to worry, Sony PC Companion 2.1 does the trick!
Download PC Companion 2.1 from the Sony Mobile website
1. When you download and open it, click start under Support Zone
2. Click start under Phone Software Update
3. When the window saying that a phone could not be found appears, click repair phone
4. A windows like this will appear, click continue to proceed with the repair of the firmware
NOTE: All data that is placed on the phone memory will be wiped but any data saved on the memory card will be spared
5. After clicking continue, a window like so will appear. Tick the box and click next to continue with repair!
6. Sony PC Companion 2.1 will now prepare the computer for the firmware update
7. Now choose your phone model, in this case it should be the Xperia X10 (X10). Select the phone and click Next!
8. Follow the prompts to repair your phone!
GOOD LUCK!!
Always fails for me.
All process end in fail
There must be a file I need to rename or something....
tried everything now...
I have tried everything by now, here i have attached a attachment of error i get while repairing my phone through SEUS..
only option is box flash, but i think its kind of risky...
Fail fail fail..... i'm getting hopeless wif my X10
Hey,
I did some re-search and got to know that somehow my X10 flashes as So-01C in some systems, i.e. xperia arc, even while updating ..........
Anyone here, knows other ways to flash through box other than technician, coz these technicians are real idiot they can crap your phone in 10 seconds, so its better to crap it yourself...
"alternative to box flash, please ???"
Try this
Had the same problem once, when my phone would not start at all, all I had to do was connect it to the PC Companion (2.0), at first it wouldn't repair but after a certain amount of tries it did the trick,
First: Make sure all your drivers are installed, if they were installed there should be no problem.
If they were not, the computer cannot identify your phone, try installing some other x10's drivers (cause your's is bricked I assume) that might do the trick aswell.
Open PC Companion > Support Zone > Phone Software Update (Start) > Follow Instructions > Repair
It might take several tries to get it right
If this doesn't work try the latest flashtool, it should do the trick !!
There must be something you are not doing right, else SEUS/Flashtool should have worked like a charm.
see i get this reply, when updating x10..
I have tried this like thousands of times, installing roms and then removing them and repairing the phone, but this time it has gone over my head........
Hello, I have a sonyericsson xperia X10 suddenly stopped turning, i tried to repair it with the FlashTool, the flash process its ok , but at the end of the process and turn it , vibrates only once and not on the lcd (black), and when i reconnect to the PC, the phone is in flash mode again., pls which files or Fw additional need install first for repair?? thks for your time pd i use the fw x10i generic stock and pc companion not repair it display a error in upload the sw to phone.
Please use search tab all is there.Take your time and read.
thks for your time, itried all methods mentioneh in the posts but nothing work, for this reason i need help thks...
I installed a Rom that went wrong and had to use flashmode with sony's update program, not sure how it's called these days. I if you install that and plug it into the pc holding down the Back button, it recognizes it and will all you what you want to do. Select restore (or something similar). It'll restore it back to 2.3.3. After that you can install xRecovery again with flash tool.
Be aware that this worked for my semi bricked X10i, no guarantee it'll work for you ofcourse.......good luck

Thks, i tried this for 2 days, but in the Pc companion display the message " no exist software update for your phone", later, put on the phone and noting, only one vibrate and the lcd is permanently black, i put again to usb/pc and display the message SEMC flash.... , pls exist a solution for this issue??? thks
You only get that message when you plug in the phone too early
Update>repair>select x10i>then press continue etc>THEN connect phone.

Even if phone shows up error triangle you should be able to use standart flash mode.
About fastboot dont know, never used it.

No problem, it could be done, but not so simply. I did rooting and xrecovery installation without Flashtool many times since Flashtool werent possible torun on Linux
Root could be done with exploit zergRush; but try SuperOneClick first. It will take some time root it completely manual.
Same with xrecovery, but its much more simple, pasting three or four files to root FS.
Try superoneclick first, if it wont help, will provide more step by step information.
EDIT:
Simpliest solution - almost forgotten
Download the zip provided underthis post.
Extract the zip file.
Connect your phone to computer (remember, that USB debugging must be on!!!)
Run file runme.bat (command line window will appear).
Enjoy !

RELAX first.
You will have to flash the stock SE firmware is by using the X10 Flashtool i .e. get your phone to stock and then root it again.
Here's a video link to the procedure :

And a link to the stock SE firmwares:

do you have USB debugging and unknown sources turned on your phone? Because its really strange why adb cant connect.
What ROM and kernel you are currently running on?
@dello what does ur pc say when u type adb devices?
Sent from my X10S using XDA
hi,
running the official rom and kernal that the SEUS installed running 2.3.3
and yes debugging mode and allow are both on but still says cannot connect to deamon, could it be the boot loader? i put ICS on a xperia play and did that fine, do i need to unlock the bootloader like i did with the play?
i did try to but the se website wont unlock it
and ADB in dos wont pick it up list empty

Hi all,
It seems my X10 mini pro is completely bricked.
Firstly I root my phone
after that I copied the xrecovery and made a restart, till then everything was rolling smoothly.
I backed up and reseted to factory settings. loaded the new update.zip and after the restart that was needed my phone briked
it's not a common brick. I can't use flashtools to recover it.
here is the problem that appears...
6/030/2013 18:30:20 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
16/030/2013 18:30:20 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted

phone is not responding to any command. Plus it needs to be turned off if you wanna restore the backup you saved previously...when I try to flash it, phone turns ON
I read many guides in this forum to unbrick it but didn't find anything that suits to my occasion.
If any other detail is missing from my report please ask me to add it.
Sorry for my english
Thanks in advance.
Use SEUS to restore Download from:
SEUS
Dont forget to pull of your battery for 4 seconds, for turn off your phone before connect your phone.

Press home and power buttons together, it will restart the phone, then start pressing the back-button repeatedly to get back into recovery and restore your previous rom from there. (Come to think of it, following my last paragraph below, you probably don't have recovery on your phone anymore, so, as Rempty mentioned above, repairing with SEUS or PC Companion would be the start to recover your phone to a usable state,.)
The error flashtool gave you is because you didn't unlock the bootloader and didn't change the kernel on your phone. It can't flash any non-sony kernel on a locked bootloader.
What is this 'update.zip' you're talking about? Most full roms have more informational names to distinguish between different zips. An update.zip is usually only for hotfixes to ROMS already flashed, and not a complete ROM.
Thanks a lot guys. I solve my problem with SEUS.
Phone completely formated.
Love you guys
Hey guys I hve instaled xrecovery and minicm9 too on my x10 mini pro I hve wiped chache,etc nd when I reboot , it hangs on SE logo plz help me

i try the PC COMPANION but my phone did not detect it..
this is what i did to bring back life to my x10 mp.
Switch phone completely off then if not already running start pc companion. then this step really got to me because of the phone constantly restarting, to get pc companion to detect the phone, i pressed and held the back key down and connected the usb cable just like flashing a new kernel. pc companion then detected the phone as x10. doesnt matter. then start the update and you must do the same thing again to force update service to detect the phone and to give the option to repair. then once thats done follow the prompts through update service, it will then ask you what phone you have, choose x10 mini pro and update.its a long process but be patient and your phone will work again.
