Searching for X8 FW and FlashTool - XPERIA X10 Android Development

Hi,
as the title said.
I´m searching for a FW for the X8 which is working with Bin4ry's Flash-Tool.

If you have an X8 update it through SEUS and then use the tool here by Bin4ry to decrypt the firmware

---

Update over SEUS not possible, that´s why I need a FW for the FlashTool

---

No 1 n idea?

---

Well as this is an x10 forum, the vast majority of people here will have x10's and wouldn't have used an x8.
I hope someone here can help you but it seems unlikely.

@pulpoff
Thank you very much.
But can you tell me how I have to rename the files that they can be flashed?
system_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION-WITH-SPARE.sin -> system.sin (177MB)
amss_fs_robyn_BC18_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin -> amss.sin (19 MB)
userdata_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION-WITH-SPARE.sin -> userdata.sin (13 MB)
kernel_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin -> ? (5 MB)
fota0_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin > ? (450 kb)
fota1_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin -> ? (450 kb)
amss_fs_robyn_BC18_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin -> ? (400 kb)
cache_S1-SW-LIVE-3EDC-0001-S1-PARTITION-WITH-SPARE.sin -> ? (1 kb)
Thanks.

kernel.sin -> (5 MB)
fota0.sin > (450 kb)
fota1.sin -> (450 kb)
amss_fs.sin -> (400 kb)
cache.sin -> (1 kb)

---

In all the other (X10)-Firmware there is no kernel.sin, so is this correct?
EDIT:
Tried it, but it doesn´t work. After some commands the Flash stops.

---

paste output.

---

It stops because you need the loader.sin from x8. This is the smallest file_xxxxxxx ans has to be decrypted. Stay to the decrypting tutorial here in the forums to get it

There is a loader.sin in the package...
So I used it...
This is the output:

Short answer.
You cannot flash all devphones. Many devphones (or testphones) have locked bootloader too, this phones can not be runned with retail firmware.
Regards

Hm. Could be possible, but until this unit all my phones could be flashed (if they are ok or death after flashing is an other part, but flashing worked everytime).
Can someone test the uploaded flash-files with a retail X8?

This is true. Are you really sure that the loader.sin is correct? Maybe you can try another one. Try getting the SEUSFiles from X8 and decrypt it yourself!
This is the best method avoiding errors. I have no X8 so i cannot try. But as it has same Protocol like X10, E10 & U20 it shoukd work out of the box with flashtool & correct files!

Thanks for your help Bin4ry.
No, I´m not sure. I only assume that the loader.sin in the package is the correct one.
I have some doubt with the files. In all the other flash firmware is no kernel.sin, so that´s why I was asking how to rename them.
And a 13 MB userdata.sin seems also very strange to me...
Can anyone provide the SEUS files or check if the loader.sin is correct?

Please try this files and tell me your results

Try Lef.Teris Files.
With kernel.sin all is correct! No need to worry!
So try his files and give us some feedback!

OK, with the new files flashing worked, but phone is dead
