If you run the flash from an open cmd prompt, it will not close at the end and you can see if any files were skipped. Missing loader.sin can cause wierd results.

maybe you don't have the busybox installed...
I did root my x10 using z4root permenant rooting and busy box was ok and xrecovery worked fine automatically..
used the custom rom freedom 8b and back to the original SE rom ,, which amazed me great work,,
now I used the custom rom black freedom 7a and the xrecovery wont install either automatically nor manually !! am kinda stuck with this rom,, tried rerooting and rebooted million times..
If anyone can help would be grateful
Thanks
manually copy the 3 files (chargemon, xrecovery, etc) into the /system/bin folder and make sure that you have the version of busybox from the market installed.
to manually copy these files u will need root explorer and make sure that you are mounted in RW mode.
I just did that and it works! Woo hoo!! Runs a treat with linpack around 33, still hasn't fixed the stuttering audio but hoping se will sort that in next update... fingers crossed

Xrecovery not working after latest stock rom
Xrecovery is definitely not working on my X10i after I stupidly re-installed the latest stock Rom... I have done all the normal steps and it now does not work... I have previously had various roms on this phone and now Xrecovery is not working im worried I'm stuck with the stock rom. Now don't ask me to press the back button and copy the files into the System folder...I've done all that I'm telling you there is something in the latest stock rom to block it in my opinion.

Help I tried reflashing WB 6 Rom and then removed the battery cause nothing would happen and now its stuck on a bootloop, i tried to load into Xrecovery but it won't. I'm desperate please.

I did notice that when flashing WB6 it would to a long time without any indication in the progress bar. If you would have waited, it eventually would have finished. Your best bet would be to reflash a complete ftf package with flashtool, root and reinstall xrecovery. you can then proceed to flash wb6 or restore the backup I know you took before you attempted to flash
Normally on WB's custom boot animation, the progress bar disappears after it fills up, then it's just a matter of waiting. Yes, it can take a while. If the progress bar restarts instead of disappearing then it's a boot loop, but this was not specified by the OP so I don't know.
I agree though, since Xrecovery is inaccessible, Flashtool is the way to go.
For reference, OP, which version of v6 did you flash? If it was v6c, Doomkernel can cause boot hangups on some devices.
Alright I will do a .ftf installation but where can I find the thread linking to that?

See the Flashtool guide sticky at the top if the page. You'll be able to find everything you need there.

Hello and merry xmas!
I had some trouble with my Neo phone, would not start and so after i tried to fix and flash it.
So i used the FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick to get it up again
i just connected the phone, and clicked flash, and it was up
But now it wants to update to 4.0.2.A.0.42, says only pc companion can do it. So i tried but got a error after a while. and it it bricked the phone again.. had to use flashtool to get up again.
Its up, but still wants to update to 4.0.2.A.0.42.
My phone WAS rooted before all trouble, and it worked fine for a long time, until the SE Neo launcher started to loop like crazy.
I also tried to root it again, both with superoneclick, and Flashtool-0.5.0.0.
And once i tried the Repair phone by pc companion, it starts to download.. but at the end, it says it cant, and bricking my phone (again)...
What now?? Would really have the latest software as i had, and to install my titanium backup pro to get all things as they was... or can i forget it?
Try updating it with SEUS !

Can you get into recovery? Try to wipe data/factory reset.
Try flashtool for flashing.

Hi,
I am not sure how to get it into recovery mode. I googled, and it only gave some Cm 7 recover mode. Sorry, pretty new at this :-/
But have not tried factory reset. Hope it will help.. Or it will "delete/brick" my ROM again..
I just do not understand how it got downgraded after all this trouble, and my failed flashing.

Factory reset made it only start looping on and off with "sony ericsson" on the screen...
4.0.2.A.0.42
flash it manually with flashtool, will fix all problems.
So this is what i have for now:
Factory reset = bricked.. did not worked
Flashing failed at userdata with Flashtool = Bricked
But i manage to get it running again by flashing it with loader.sin with FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick.
Android 2.3.4 - Build number 4.0.1.A.0.283 - Up and running
OTA says it wanna download 4.0.2.A.0.42 = (but it did not download 165 mb as SEUS below here says) Downloaded pretty fast (i have only 2MB line), asked me to install. Clicked install, phone reboots, and failed. It Says: Could not install new software version, try again. I retried 3 times. same error. But not bricked this time.
Installed SEUS v.2.11.12.9 , doing a Update as recommended by program (not the Update and factory reset), downloading 165,2 MB (takes time.. OTA was done in 2 minutes seconds, so something wrong there)
But Success with updating with SEUS !
But phone is not rooted anymore. And i'm not sure i wanna do it... thou my Titanium backups is very tempting :-/
Can someone tell me if i need more then a rooted phone to use WOTAN flash tool?
Cus it is always stops halfway with an error.
I currently have 2.3.4 - build 4.0.2.A.0.42
I also tried other flash tools, same error..

No you don't need an unlocked bootloader to use wotan, just register download the wotan client and use your registration details to login and flash
I did try that, and it always fails at flashing userdata (number 9 i think), then i brick phone.
And the i always have to use FlashTool FOTAUnbrick and loader.sin to get it up and running again.
I also tried flashtool with 2.3.4 ROM..same error.. fails after a while and brick it..
strange !

Thanks, but that's the one i already have for unbricking my phone.
My bootloader is not unlocked, so i do not understand.
What i did today was i tried to use Wotan, selected ROM, it's starting the flashing, and fails on userdata.
I disconnected phone, started it, and its bricked.. (shows the triangle with phone in-front of it.)
I start up FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick as administrator, click on flash, load loader.sin, connect phone, it takes 5 sec, it says its done, and phone up again.
Of course all userdata is gone, i have to restore all kind of apps from titanium backup and so..
Phone is ok.... but many apps keeps on crashing. For example sms, dialer and so.. until i restore i older backup from titanium, but it lasts only a day or two after using, so i have to repeat it often. That's why i wanna install a fresh ROM all over again.
I am pretty new at this, but learned a lot last weeks by failing
I may be wrong but to me this sounds like you may have broke the bootloader.
