Till tonight i was facing this wierd issue on my x10mini. Searched almost everywhere for it but couldn't find anything fruitful for the same.
The phone blacks out and nothing except the browser works. And there is really you can work out if you have wifi and data turned off to the recover the problem.
i found a simple way out of it. It might help noobs like me.
So in case of x10/x10 mini/pro, and with no connectivity at all. no wifi no data.
i used this
Start the phone in Safe Mode by
1. Switch off and wait for 5 seconds.
2. Press and hold the left menu button.
3. While the left menu button is pressed down, switch on the device.
4. The process takes about 30 seconds!! Untill then keep on holding the key.
5. Keep on holding, even if the SE animation comes.
6. And there you go, SAFE MODE!
Go to Settings<Applications<Manage Applications<Launcher Pro<UNINSTALL!
Reboot.
P.S.:None of the installed apps except system ones would work.
Hope this helps someone.
Hello
I have same problem as you but your guide didnt work for me. I dont have a SE X10, I have a ZTE Blade (Android 2.1) and I have tried your guide with all three buttons I have but it didnt work.
Do you know anything else I can try??
take a look a the official launcher pro webpage.
Guess you mean this site: launcherpro.com
The problem is that I cant update because I cant go to their website because both Wifi and data is turned off and I cant turn it on when launcher pro all the time open the web browser.
On Launcher Pros website it says: "Please click here from your phone’s browser to open the Android Market and update LauncherPro." But nothing happens when I click on that???

Hi All,
I come from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105745
I have followed instructions and installed the CWM-recovery-3.2.0.0-r3-x10mini-Edify in my X10 mini (non-pro) by manually copying system/bin/* and system/xbin/* files (overwriting) to my /system (remounted as rw).
After that, I turned off the device and then turned it on (simple powercycle). After turning on I was repeatedly pressing the "back" button (and not the volume down as done for other devices). The amazing result is that phone booted up apparently in a normal way, except that no hard button is working! I am talking about power button and the menu button.
I have realized that I don't have the star screwdriver at hand, and tomorrow I am leaving for a 1 week trip. When you talk about bad timing
I am of course waiting for battery to die...but meanwhile, can you help me with this (relatively) big problem for me?
Thanks!
If I attach the USB cable I can see it's still alive, and also alarms are ringing as usual! How weird that buttons don't work..has somebody ever experienced this? Can't find same cases online..
I search all over the internet and none address my issue.
I use my Gtab occasionally. Last week I turned on my tablet and it goes to the first screen with the three birds then move to the "Gtablet" screen and stays there. Tried several time to no avail. I finally did a hard reset (had to open the back), still the same thing. I then tried the recovery (ON button while holding Volume +) The three birds again shows up and the small message on the top left of the screen saying Recovery Key detected and stays there. Nothing else happens. All of the thread I saw always refers to the last option is to do the recovery mode. Well, my recovery mode does nothing. Anything else I can try?
Thanks for any help...
You need to nvflash. Please google "gtablet for dummies" website and follow directions.
good time to try JB

Since it appears you need to re-nflash back to BL1.2 I would think this would be a great time to try out one of the JB Roms. I would suggest Smooth Bean, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900562.
I think some people issues with it are 1) not following install instructions, 2) related to Chrome and/or flash. I'm not a big fan of Chrome. Would prefer Opera Mobile but hadn't got flash to work yet with it but flash does work with the default browser. Also tried Firefox, flash didn't work there either. You will be surprises how fast it seems to be.
Greetings reader. I'm new to the forum but have been viewing threads every now and then, so after having read plenty of times that people should search before posting. I have searched and didn't find what I was looking for, so that's why you can read this now ;p.
4 days ago when I was trying to browse the web in college I wasn't able to connect to the wifi network or even open the wifi settings, so I reset my phone only to find the problem persisting. As if something locked me out of the wifi settings.
I'm perfectly able to access any of the other settings, so I think it's kinda weird.
Shortly after I realised I couldn't get to the wifi anymore my phone started to reboot itself automatically. Ever since that first reboot it just keeps rebooting at the same pace over and over again until I either power it off or until the battery dies.
The phone also get's unusually hot now. Not like, super hot, but definitely hotter than any other time I can remember.
I also get error messages since the problems started saying: 'Process system is not responding'. I then get the option to either force close it or wait. Neither seem to do much if anything at all other than taking away the error message. Sounds kinda critical if you'd ask me.
But so after all these symptoms started to appear I figured I'd just do a factory reset and be done with it, but every time I go into the factory reset settings, I put in my lock screen pattern and then at the last step (pressing the Erase all data button) it just does nothing.
I can touch the button and it does give the animation that it is being pressed, but it just doesn't do anything.
The phone doesn't freeze though, I can still navigate after pressing the button only to see it reboot again shortly after.
After that I tried to flash the rom, but for some reason my PC refuses to show my phone's internal memory in my pcor any sign of my phone's connection at all.
I haven't tried it on any other pc yet, so it might just be my pc, though I doubt it is since it was perfectly able to recognize it shortly before all this started.
The device hasn't endured any shocks lately or expsure to water or whatever, so I think that's ruled out as well.
I am running the stock rom, 2.3 Gingerbread I believe, and the warranty is already way over date (I think. I'll have to check that).
Any suggestions as on how to determine what could be causing this, or how to fix it? Because I really don't want to buy a new phone xD.

Since you've not modified your Sola in any way.
Give this official method a try.

Guys! I need help please! I have an Lg Optimus F3, and today early in the morning i downloaded some random game to play, don't remember the name, but it kinda froze my phone, so i hit the home key, and then all these messages popped up saying, "This application has stopped working" for every single app.
Then, my phone turned off, and now every time i try to turn it on it takes like 30 minutes to show the LG logo, then after another 15 or so eventually loads the actual boat up menu, and after about another 5 loads the home screen.
Settings are also being stupid. I try to go into Security and they force close. And the home screen won't load.
I've only had it since like september, so it's too early for a new phone.
I did a factory reset when it wouldn't turn on, so now it's in stock, just like when i first got it. But it still won't work.
Anyone have any suggestions please? I just want it to boot up fast, and start working like normal again.

You will have to flash a kdz (stock firmware) file via LG Flash tool (R&D Test Tool). You will find the needed informations HERE.
Also, if you aren't sure what the name of it is, you should be able to go to the Play Store via any browser and log in and look at your apps. You should be able to tell from there. This might not help you get your phone running again, but if you let others know you had trouble with it, it might be helpful to others.

Thanks for the help guys. Didn't work thought. I just contacted LG, and they told me to send in the phone, and they should be able to fix it. Thank you though.
What didn't work?
So i turned on my phone and strangely this had happened.
The buttons themselves still work as i can long-press to get the settings menu. Back still works (otherwise i wouldn't be able to do anything!)
I also noticed it had turned on bluetooth.
I don't even have the lock screen and the pull-down menu is blank. So i cannot change settings very easily now either, the only way to do it is physically going into the settings app.
Also i cannot go to the normal list of all your applications either. The only way to get to my applications is to manually add them to the home screen "launcher" thing (is this the launcher? i was never clear on terminology).
I am on SmallEUI V18 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...eui-5-9-lemax2-aroma-installer-may-1.3524531/
I didn't realise it had been updated.
I cannot use adb, i think maybe i had disabled usb debugging because i heard leaving it on all the time was insecure. However now the developer options won't let me in too, it says "developer options are not available for this user" when i go into the menu. Tried re-enabling them but nothing.
Notifications aren't coming up so I couldn't change the USB connection setting. I was panicking thinking i would be unable to backup anything as i wouldn't be able to put the phone into MTP mode and it would be stuck in charging mode.
Thankfully i can still download and install applications. I found a program called MTP Enabler. I think it was from here but i cannot remember: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-root-r-3-3-marshmallow-mtp-enabler.3263467/
You need root for it but thankfully SuperSU still works.
Aurora store still works so i can get apps there too.
Backed up my applications settings manually (not sure if i did it correctly, i just took copies of the Android/data and Android/obb folders for the apps i wanted, but strangely didn't need root).
Also installed Titanium backup to back them up properly and get some of the Le Eco system apps like camera, IR remote that i might need.
SMS with SMS backup and restore.
Not sure the best way to backup whatsapp, just transferred the folder manually.
So i'm not sure the best way to fix everything.
I cannot remember how to flash roms or do anything since it has been so long since i did it. Anyway I do not even know if it is possible without ADB? Surely it must be, otherwise i might be screwed. At least i have root so i guess that gives me more hope of being able to fix things.
I was really worried at one point because i was trying to run TWRP or something to see if it would recover things but i couldn't remember how and somehow i ended up in Qualcom download mode, with no screen or anything. I had no idea what had happened. If that happens to anyone else, i think you get into it by holding down the power and volume down buttons at the same time. And to get out of it i managed to do it by holding power and volume up buttons. After that i have been too scared to turn off the phone though!
BTW in system analyse, i see something called Le Eco key although it only shows the start and end of it. Is this some kind of encryption key and what is it for? I think i remember it being important when flashing CFW for the first time but i cannot remember...?
After i've managed to sort this i definitely want to wipe my phone and start from scratch though, getting something a lot more up to date on there. At least i have the little i care about backed up now. Will have to re-learn what to do!
I found this thread:
Notification area, "home" and "recent" buttons not working
(I'm running cuoco92 stable release, so I also posted in that thread. But maybe this section here is a better place for my problem) Hi there! Right after charging, the notification area and the "Home" and "Recent" buttons stopped working...
forum.xda-developers.com
However I don't know what Users are on my device. How do i find this out? I have root amaze file manager and i can download any apps. What terminal app would you recommend?
Thanks
