ok so ive just tryed to flash the uk generic .184;
flashing failed because stupidy i forgot to enable usb debugging tryed to boot phone to enable sony ericsson screen loads then a screen with an explanation mark and a phone appears and it turns off again
someone please help!!
Try using PC companion or seus to repair it
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
yea im gonna try that now cheers i hope it works!!!
ok so pc compainion repair didnt work said to go to support online?! trying again now but doesnt look good!
my phone is still under warrenty right because i havent unlocked bootloader or anything?
EDIT OKSO I DOWNLOADED THE UDATE SERVICE FROM SONY REINSTALLS AND SEEMS TO BE WORKING AS SHOULD AGAIN THANK ****!
NOW DEBATING TRYING IT AGAIN HAHA
Give it a shot. Just enable the Dev mode.
As long as your bootloader is locked SEUS can reapir the phone all day and night from being bricked.
Follow the guide here, i did with no problems. I didnt have usb debugging on before flashing .184 and it worked fine.
Maybe it didnt properly install the first time. When done it should say something like flash successful turn on phone.
Or maybe your USB cable came out of the phone. I know mine doesn't feel secure when plugged in.
yea not sure what is was but flashed again an now im rooted with 2.3.3
cheers for the help people!
Cool, have fun.
Hi guys
Can someone help me as i made a mistake.
Rooted and xrecovery on my x10 mini,but didnt bother to update the firmware to the Latest 2.1.1.A.0.6,so im stuck on the 2.1-UPDATE 1 which means i cant run CM7 OR CM6 on old firmware....
im a newbie to android switching from the iphones and thought to just give this a whirl today and open it up after just buying it.
But now i have tried to update in pc companion but it gets stuck at the plug in usb and hold back button stage and wont upgrade!
can anyone help me please as i would like to get it onto the CM7 and it wont run on the old firmware
thanks guys
Hi so I recently followed a page on androidadvices.com to update the firmware to 2.3.5 on att i777 and was successful. if u google it u can check it out, i cant links yet. noob
Then I followed another page to root it on the same website. (-galaxy-s2-i777-gingerbread-235-firmware/[/url]). I then flashed the kernel included in the download file and know it worked because the yellow triangle comes up on boot. phone works. but w/ 2.3.5 the wifi turns off after 5 seconds. any help
main issue - trying to root. next step calls for superoneclick. got stuck at "waiting for device" as if it didnt recognize it. then i downloaded s2 root and tried that and it said 'phone not connected plug it in and try again'. thought it was a driver issue so i downloaded newest drivers and kies is up to date.
help please i want to root it and how would i get it back to normal? can i flash a regular kernel back through odin?
much thanks

Look around. All your answers are easily found.
Hope you didn't flash that nasty new boot loader in the new 2.3.5 ROM.

Its "soft-brick" state.
Didnt you have some problems with usb before?
If not, try to charge up your phone once again.
Then read this topic, It will surely help you:

usb and everything was fine before i started messing around the firmware.
battery was fine and when i was flashing the roms the green light was on and the computer recognised the phone OK so did flash tool. is there anyway of getting the phone into a fastboot mode so i can use the dos fastboot??
thanks

Even if phone shows up error triangle you should be able to use standart flash mode.
About fastboot dont know, never used it.
hi,

No problem, it could be done, but not so simply. I did rooting and xrecovery installation without Flashtool many times since Flashtool werent possible torun on Linux
Root could be done with exploit zergRush; but try SuperOneClick first. It will take some time root it completely manual.
Same with xrecovery, but its much more simple, pasting three or four files to root FS.
Try superoneclick first, if it wont help, will provide more step by step information.
EDIT:
Simpliest solution - almost forgotten
Download the zip provided underthis post.
Extract the zip file.
Connect your phone to computer (remember, that USB debugging must be on!!!)
Run file runme.bat (command line window will appear).
Enjoy !

RELAX first.
You will have to flash the stock SE firmware is by using the X10 Flashtool i .e. get your phone to stock and then root it again.
Here's a video link to the procedure :

And a link to the stock SE firmwares:

do you have USB debugging and unknown sources turned on your phone? Because its really strange why adb cant connect.
What ROM and kernel you are currently running on?
@dello what does ur pc say when u type adb devices?
Sent from my X10S using XDA
hi,
running the official rom and kernal that the SEUS installed running 2.3.3
and yes debugging mode and allow are both on but still says cannot connect to deamon, could it be the boot loader? i put ICS on a xperia play and did that fine, do i need to unlock the bootloader like i did with the play?
i did try to but the se website wont unlock it
and ADB in dos wont pick it up list empty
cheers
ok so ive been out of rooting for a while so i kinda messed up a bit.... i deleted my os.... i cant turn on usb debug to connect to pc and so now im just stuck... i figured if i could try and just get a custom rom on the phone i could install and it would be fine..... currently trying to do a sick rom for the galaxy note 5 from tmobile.... and ye i just need help really bad... im currently trying to just be in download mode and find a way to fix the problem using odin.. but as of yet ive had a hard time find something that will work...
nvm i finally got my computer to recognize the phone and allow to get into the phones storage......... but ethier way this could still be helpful to some if somebody puts an answer on here just in case
