[Q] Used Flashtool, phone wont start - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ..
As I had problems updating with SEUS .. I tried flashing ..
So I downloaded the flashtool and followed "Rendeiros guide" ..
I flashed the .24 firmware with dualtouch(I think) .. Followed the steps alright and came to the last message: "turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging".
Here I removed the USB cable from the computer and tried to start my phone .. It didn't work .. Directly after Sony Ericsson logo comes a picture of a phone with a triangle beside it .. In the triangle is a "!" sign ..
Please help!

Flash again then.

I did flash it again now ..
And it seems like it works .. But it's a very slow start I say ..
I flashed with:
X10i Generic
Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.2.A.0.24
Is this the latest? Or can I now update via SEUS or PC Companion?
Thanks

Last one are here.
Try SEUS for newest, I used XDA for .54

Funny thing is .. Post said it already included dualtouch .. But it doesn't work for me

SEUS cannot repair phone

didnt see anything on this so i started a new topic...
but my x10 is haveing issues so i tried to repair via SE PC Companion, but the repair function doesnt seem to work, as i get... "An error has occurred and the phone software update was aborted"
and with the SEUS Update i get ... "The installation failed"
ive also tried flashtool, but the flashing of FW 435 fails @ amss_fs.sin stage..
Did i actually end up bricking the phone and have to send it for warranty?
unless i am missing something... any help would be appreciated

Since today (I just realised it today so maybe since couple of days ago) the repair button doesn't even appair for me in the SEUS.
No repair in my seus. it just say I have newest software.
are SE black listning phones whit custom ROM ?
I have a similar problem, phone just wont turn on. SEUS doesnt give me a repair option. Then flashtool always gives me error and then aborts. And when i leave the battery out for at least 24 hours, then plug charger into phone w/o battery, then put battery in 10mins later, it starts up. goes straight to Xrecovery. Reboot and it turns on. but eventually it just turns off again to the point i cant turn it on again. so frustrating. I really think the phone is done for...

I've broken my Xperia X10 Mini...
I tried to flash it using Flash Tool and firmare E10i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Sony Ericsson.ftf (I read that it work to E10a to )
And everting looks good, but after the process he can Turn On!!
When I push the power button, my cellphone vibrate, but don't appear anithing...
I tried to reinstall using SEUS but he says that there's no longer update avaible and don't show me any option to "install anyway"
Can anybody help me??
Try to find a way to unplug the battery.
I donĀ“t know what the Xperia looks like inside but on the Mini there is a small rubber thing behind the cover that exposes the battery connection.
Have you tried hard reset?
And then SEUS?
Yeah, I tried to reinstall by SEUS...
I have shutdown the Battery and nothing...
Is that Hard Reset is made by Hardware???
I can't find anything about that...

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??

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

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:

I used this firmware :

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

you can try downloading the stock firmware from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749426
Flash it through Flashtool. My x10 is also bricked, even flash mode isn't working. But I'm sure this would work for your phone as my phone condition is different from yours.
maybe lack of suitable drivers
