[Q] X10 Mini downgrade problem! - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi Guys!
I really need your help, I tried to downgrade my x10 mini, but it kicked me in some weird boot loop thingy.
The screen is frozen and I can't turn it off, the master reboot just reboots it and it starts where it left.
What should I do?
Is there any way I can shut it off entierly and update it with SEUS?
I'm desperate for help!

In my case, SEUS detected the mobile and allowed me to flash it anyway. I can't remember if I pressed the back or the home key while rebooting in order to make SEUS detect it. But I remembered that it costed me a little before SEUS allowed me to reflash the mobile. Patience...

and then the noob bricked his x10

Hello All,
I just bricked my x10, and have no idea whats going on, other than knowing that the x10 is bricked! So this is what happened...
I backed everything with titanium backup, and then proceed to do my JIT and Cleaner in shell root. I first shell root then ran the JIT_enabler v2, then after that I ran the junk_cleanup. When the junk cleanup finishes, I ddint like how it was set up and couldnt figure out how to change it back, so I did a full system backup from titanium. After the backup it was still no good, I then proceed to do a factory reset in the privacy tab in system settings. When I came back to my phone after the factory reset, it erased everything.... my screen was blanked and I couldnt do anything. I restarted the phone, and the phone was stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo. I couldnt even turn off my x10. I restarted one more time by taking the battery out, but it is still stuck at the Sony Ericsson Logo... what should I do? is my phone done for? i only had it for less than a week =[
please help! thanks!
You'll need to repair your phone, using pc companion. At update it'll say up to date, update it anyway and you'll start from scratch.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
but the problem for using PC companion is that I cannot even connect my phone with PC companion because I cannot mount my memory card. Its stuck at the SE logo sign, and when I plug in the usb cable, it tells me to drag down the menu and mount the memory card.... and I cannot do that because my main screen is still stuck on SE logo... any ideas? Thanks!
You do not need to mount your sd card for pc companion or seus to work. Load pc companion, take the battery out of your phone for 30 seconds. Put the battery bck in the phone and attach thhe usb cable. Do not plug the other end in to your pc yet. Start the update on pc companion and it should ask you to attach the phone in flash mode. When it does that hold the back button on your phone down and while still holding itdown, plug the usb cable in to your pc. Follow the instructions and it should then be back to normal

Right my friend, don't worry. As long as you can get to a Sony Ericsson logo it is not bricked!
By getting to the Sony Ericsson logo it means that Flash mode is still available.
Have you changed your carrier code on the phone? If so use the firmware for that code, if you are not sure just ask again what we mean
Secondly get the Flash tool, stick in the firmware, boot into flash mode and you should be set my friend.
Just make sure its the right firmware for your phone
If you need any more help just ask

[Q] Xperia x10i wont boot after root atempt

Hi,
Last night, i tried to root my Xperia x10i phone, following the steps in this article:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907
After completing the 1st step, i tried to boot my phone. I get the usual vibration when booting, and after a second or two, the phone had started vibrating endlessly.
Then i tried to recover it using PC Companion (Connected in flash mode). It downloaded the firmware and installed it to the phone flawlessly.
I disconnected the phone, in switch on. Get the usual vibration, and then the screen backlight starts to turn on and off constantly. As the PC Companion says this could happens for a few minutes at first boot after update, i waited, but it simply remains doing the same thing, and never show the SE logo.
I tried to repair again, this time using SEUS, following all the instruction, with same result.
I dont know what else can i do... Please Help!!!
this will help you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmX-IYNYqL8
You mean try to flash it to 2.1? Or to 1.6?
flash it to 2.1
Ok. I've just tried to flash with a 2.1 x10i generic rom and a 2.3 x10i generic rom, following the steps in the video. Dont work...
hmm.. weird, any1 can help here?
Yesterday, i left the phone in the office, with the battery out, hoping that something i read in a forum, about this could work, was true. Today i take the phone, put the battery back, and turn on the phone, and... No luck... My xperia is still dead...
Try using SEUS instead of PC Companion.
Follow the instructions ins SEUS and make sure that the phone is off and hold down the BACK button before you plug in the USB cable and make sure you keep it pressed down until the software tells you otherwise.
I've done so, but still dont work... But i'll try again...
I've just tried with SEUS, which download the 2.3 update. SEUS run all the way, and says disconect and turn on. Same result...
Any sugestion?? I almost give up on this... =(

[Q] My x10 wont boot in flash mode. Help me please!

After doing a load of work on my x8, I decided to fix my x10 mini that's been lying around.
The first problem I encountered was the fact that it automatically boots up when it's been shut off, being the reason I stopped using it.
Second problem is that I can't seem to boot it in flash mode. The problems may be connected.
I've installed the drivers needed through flashtool and it works fine for my x8, but when I shut down my x10 mini and hold back, it just wont connect. The screen stays black and nothing happens...
I've searched for a while and haven't found anything, but then again I'm not known for being a thorough lurker.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm a bit confused here.. your phone automatically restarts when you turn it off, but when you try to connect it in flash-mode it does nothing? not even start?
Anyway, to me it sounds like your powerbutton gets stuck a bit every now and then, which might explain it automatically restarting after you turn it off, and if it's stuck it might prevent you from entering flash-mode too. My two cents...

[Q] Xperia X10 Mini Pro bricked???Please, help!

Hi!
I have a big problem that was caused by my own stupidity. I tried updating my phone to CM9, but I didn't install the nAa kernel first. What I have now is a phone that is completely useless. I can't enter CMW recovery, the phone doesn't stay in flashmode, it does enter, but then it just proceeds to the bootscreen with the Sony Ericsson logo. From there, I can't enter recovery, and I can't even turn off the damn thing.
So basically I can't recover my previous firmware, I can't reflash the phone, I can't do anything! Please, help!
Thanks in advance!

Well, I tried a gazillion times, and I was finally able to enter SEUS, and start updating, I'll update you guys on the progress!

[Q] Xperia x10 mini stuck on boot loop. literally tried everthing.

Hi, I have a Xperia x10 mini and I turned it off so I could charge it up. After it had charged I turned it on but as soon as it turned on I started to use it and it turned off. Ever since then it keeps turning on, getting to the Sony Ericsson Logo switching off then rebooting again. I have literally tried everything. I tried to reboot it by holding down the middle button and the power button. I've tried to reinstall the firmware using PC companion. By the way it is rooted as well.
Is this phone completely messed up?
Hey guys, don't worry I fixed it by doing a complete restore.
