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!!
Hi
Today when I connect my Neo V to my pc using usb cable, it shows updates are available on SE PC Companion and I press the update button.
After downloading files and update process, it shows a message that update failed.
I disconnect the cable and now the phone is not booting. It stuck on the following screen. Error picture attached. This is my first Android phone. Pls help me...
try updating your phone by connecting it again to sony ericsson pc companion , it should mostly work , if it fails flash the .ftf file from this thread using flash tool

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.

Hi everyone!
So I was trying to update my X10 from a CM7 mod to M&M`S MiUI 2.3.9, but when I tried to flash the kernel necessary for it, Flashtool wouldn't install it due to an error (12/055/2012 14:55:06 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed").
I didn't think anything of it, and decided to try installing the ROM anyways because I'm retarded. Now my phone won't get past the Sony Ericsson logo when booted, I can't flash anything with Flashtool because it just comes up with that error again, and PC Companion and Update Service won't repair it.
ANY and ALL help will be appreciated. Thank you!
Do u not meed to unlock bootloader for that Rom?

Yeah, I didn't really read through everything. xD
Again, I'm retarded.
But is there any way of fixing this?
I would try this first.....in case youve not been using properly before.

I did that, and it tells me that there is no software available for my phone yet.
So you are doing everything exactly as it says in the guide,and your saying that when you connect the phone in step 8,it hits you with no new software available.
Im asking because
1.Its always worked for me(about 10 times without any problem)
2.People connect their phone too early when using pc companion
If it doesnt help,you can try an earlier version of flashtool
I did it step by step and I'm using version 0.6.7.0 right now because I can't find any links to the newest version. :/
I was checking update, since I am still on 4.0.3 & SEUS return with Unexpected error
well, I install the SEUS application to another PC, and got the same error, I didn't connect my phone to PC. its just SEUS error.
Search on google, some peoples complain about it since 2010 at Sony support forum, but nobody replied them.
and it's weird ....
same problem , i dont know what's the matter ?
me too, I need to reinstall my phone now, wtf should I do now
It was Sony Servers, causing the problem, & Now its Gone
Same Here
Me too got the same error
Does anyone know how to fix this?! bcoz of this error i can't unbrick my device with SEUS :crying::crying:

Try to update the OS either through sony's pc companion or Sony's update service. Both may tell you your software is up to date but there is an option to force update it anyway. This will bring your tablet back to stock.
If all of these fail, either your pc usb has a problem or your cable is bad or you need to reinstall Sony's usb drivers.
yeah the companion software is useless because it comes back saying "your device has modified software unable to update" sony update service fixed it thanks. nkw time to take this back and take the smug faces off the pc world sales staff lol.
