I tried -everything- found, to try and get to boot into xrecovery. I saw someone fixing it by reinstalling, and first deleting xrecovery within /local/tmp/ so I did that. At the second I deleted the xrecovery folder with RootExplorer phone crashed. Now it's permanentely stuck at Sony Ericsson-logo screen.
PC Suit offers no help since I can't boot the phone it claims it's not connected.
I downloaded "Omnius for SE" but I don't understand it's usage, since I don't have backup of my phone..
Can anyone help me out please, I'm scared
try to get your phone working again with SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service), you can download it from the SE site.
I'm an android-newbie, but afaik you will loose your personal data.
Thanks! I will try that out today at work. Will post how it's going

you should time accurately rebooting, holding the back bottom and connecting
you'll get it after a couple of tries
goodluck
Thanks! It did wonders for me, back on track now!

when I used SEUS after bricking my phone it rebooted constantly without allowing me to break in^^ my solution to this was disconnecting the battery (which actually is pretty easy) then I could make another reflash with SEUS, and then I had a working phone

Hey guys
So, i decided to try and root my phone and i think i cleverly chose to use a really old method and subsequently my phone is now pretty much bricked. It used to be software V2.1
now, whenever i turn it on (I need to take out the battery and put it back in to restart it) It goes to the sony ericsson splash screen, then a "MTT Docomo" screen and then the screen turns blank and stays like that. I got halfway through a guide i found somewhere on the internet and now this is happening D=
I can't repair it in the sony ericsson pc suite (it detects a phone but asks me to connect it etc. which i can't do).
I've read a bit around and i think the answer is using flashtools? Can i still do that when my phone's in this state? Sorry if this is a common question, couldn't find any similar cases though =S I'm not completely sure what to do... any suggestions?
Thanks!
yes, you're right, my opinion is you must have to flash your phone properly with a clean stock rom before retry to flashing your phone another time.
And to make it properly is to use flashtools method (see thit link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343, there is a perfect tuto made for that)
And you could also use the root function included in Flashtool if you still want to root your phone
You should still be able to repair w/SEUS ("pc suite") or use flashtool.
X10 is pretty unbrickable.
To get into flash mode in your phone's current state take out the battery, connect the usb, hold the back button, and then replace the battery.
Hope this helps.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies!
I went through the flashing guide above and managed to get my phone working again (you were right, i could still start it up in flash mode if i took out the battery etc. first), and rooting it was pretty easy =)
Thanks again guys, the forum's a great resource.

you just saved my bacon mate. got an xperia play but decided to have a play about with unlocking the bootloader on my old x10. needless to say i cocked up and bricked the phone. followed your post and finally managed to get flashtool to sort it. many thanks

hi guys. my x10 froze at se boot and does nothing. i've read through almost all helpfull threads that are similar to my problem but the problem still persist. fyi, i booted to xrecovery, made a backup and i noticed that there were problems in backing up (md5 chcksum, i think). but the backup file was created. i restored using that file and now it is stuck at boot. i can't even turn the phone off. i've tried hard reset, tried using the sues, flashtoo and even pc tools but to no avail. this is due to the phone can't connect to usb. can anyone please help me.
You have do a factory reset and wipe cache?
how can i do that andres3d? are there any way for me to do that? i'm trying but the phone just can't go past the se boot. it's just stuck there. i can't even turn the phone off. the only way is to take out the battery.
Try this, enter into xrecovery and select "factory resect" first at all, then reboot.
I got stuck there too, and I haven't the xRec installed
You can download the SE Update Service (SEUS) and flash the original rom back to it.
Download the software and install, take off the battery, wait a little bit (30s or so), insert the battery back. DO NOT TURN ON THE PHONE YET.
Open the SEUS, choose the phone (X10) and click 'go', or 'ok', or whatever. Keep going and the software will tell you to plug the phone. Plug the phone turned off. When it's plugged, turn it on holding the back button until the software tells you to release.
Wait a few moments... and it's done. Turn on your phone, it should take a little longer to boot, but it's just the first time, then it boots normally.
It's quite easy to do when you know what to do
thanks in advance but i've tried both method and it still got me nowhere. first, i can't boot to xrecovery at all and second, the sues doesn't even detect my phone.
Did you try download a stock firmware from here and install by flashtool?
Do you have installed drivers from x10 to your PC?
I thing the only way is by flashtool, because you don't have xrecovery access l.

Hi all
Unfortunetly my case is 99% similiar as "Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10XPERIA X10 Q&A[Q] {HELP} another x10 stuck at se boot" but changing the cables doesn't help. The only thing which the phone respond is to hold back starting of booting what immidietly happening when i'm connecting the usb cable.
I had xrecover installed before but is not starting onto flashing mode.
Any ideas
Hey,
I'm afraid I managed to somehow brick my X10 (although I know you all say that's impossible). But here's the problem:
My phone is on the cyanogenmod 6.1 (gingerbread), and was working perfectly fine for over a few months. But two weeks ago he suddenly went off, and I can't restart him. I think the phone freezes the moment the boot loader should load android. Because when I press the ON button, the LED flashes green, and the phone vibrates (as it would normally do), but then nothing! And the phone doesn't respond to anything else I do then. The only thing I can do is take out the battery, put it back in, and were back in the beginning stage
I tried to repair with SEUS and PC Companion. When it asks to plug in flash mode (plug in while holding the back button), I do so, and the PC recognizes the phone. But when it tries to repair, I get an error after a while. The progress bar shows no process at all, so I think the error is a time out error, because the phone is frozen.
I don't know what to do any more know, and I'm not really looking foreword to buying a knew phone already! So I hope you guys can help me!

Have you tried flashtool? Its worth a shot.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
Tried, but I don't seem to find an entire rom to flash. Most roms I find are .zip or .7z, and those files don't contain an .ftf file.
Do know were I could find one?
Im on my phone now so I cant post a link, but search for "flashtool firmwares" in the devs section. It will take you back to stock 2.1 (Or 2.3 depending on the firmware you get)

Tried Flashtool, but no succes! It says "Error Flashing. Aborted". No luck with that! But thanks anyway!
There must be some other way I can repair my phone..
i have exactly the same problem with my x10i, it only vibrates continuously but won't boot,
i tried everything, flashing with generic firmwares 1.6, 2.1 and 2.3.3 and repair using PC companion and SEUS still nothing ( i make sure that i have 50% battery before flashing)
when flashing it enters flash mode without even pressing the back key, when hooked to charger green LED lit immediately as if (flash mode)
i taught it was the LCD but i tried to use another xperia x10i motherboard and the LCD works fine (i have 2 xperia x10i btw)
any help will be much appreciated.
use the search option on this forum!

I may have posted in the wrong section and before you say there are topics covering this ive tried everything and im at my wits end!
I had a custom 2.2 ROM loaded on my Xperia for months but due to battery life issues i decided to upgrade to 2.3 (Wolf's) without doing much research.. Had i learnt that i needed to upgrade xRecovery to the latest release i wouldnt be in this dilemma.
I did the usual stuff when loading a new ROM but when loading the 2.3.3 ROM it failed.
Now when the phone starts up i get nothing but the SE logo!
Ive tried reflashing.
Ive tried using SEUS/PCC to update my phone - Which to no avail will the program recognize my phone for longer than 10 seconds.
Ive also tried SeTool2 and cant get my head around that.
If anyone has a fast easy fix for an idiot like me please point me in the right direction!
Should also add that i cant access xRecovery.
I am not trying to highjack this post but i am in the same position my phone is stuck in a loop on the black screen with the se logo.Flash tool or the se update service "sees" it for about 10 seconds not long enough to do anything.Please can anybody help?
A quick update i have sorted it i left it on se update and some how it went in to repair mode and i now have a working x10 again.The se repair didnt seem to be doing anything it just said please wait but i switched it on and it worked now i have to root it again lol
I think you should flash stock ROM 2.1 via flashtool, root and flash Xcr. Afterwards, you can follow the WOLF's instructions to flast TW ROM. Remember flash baseband .71
So i tried those things and still havn't gotten anywhere!
I cant flash the only thing i can do with flashtool is change the baseband and thats not very helpful to me atm!
I just wish there was an easy fix but apparently there isnt

Read Wolf's thread!!!
You HAVE to change the baseband, otherwise it won't work! You need baseband .71, which is included in the flashtool package he says to use...

Hi guys!
I have some problems with my X10i. First it all started with me wanted to go back to a previous backup with xRecovery. All this went wrong and got a message in xrecovery that it was not able to load sd-card. And then it was stuck on Sony Ericsson boot screen.
I got it flashed now, with Android 2.3, and wanted to root and install xRecovery, but when I start my phone and connect it to my comuter, it reboots. It wont stay on with USB connected to PC, so long till I can root.
I'm getting pretty irritated now.
What is wrong?
Hope you guys can help, and sorry for bad english.
Revert back to stock f/w pal u should be fine

Thank you for your answer.
But do you mean to restore to 2.1? When I downloaded flashtool I got 2.1 with the program, do you mean to restore with this flash that came with flashtool program?
Flash
Try fix it with seus
Okay.. I updated my phone to newest, 2.3.3.
After I had updated the sony program said that I had to wait for my phone to reboot and not take out my battery for the first time, but my phone did not reboot. Nothing happend after I disconnected the phone. When I pressed the power button it only blinked green one time, so I took out my battery and rebooted.
Everything went fine in the beginning, couple of reboots that I expected after new software, but now my phone reboots and reboots. Sometimes I can't even get to the screen where I unlock my phone before it reboots. And even thou when charging, it reboots.
Omg.. so frustrating!!!
Please help! Should I restore to 2.3 or the 2.1 that came with flashtool program?
