Like the other hundred topics about this, use seus and reflash to stock

This is only way?

no, if you make backup you can reflash it, otherwise u must use seus

You can either use:
1. SEUS and reflash the SE official 2.1
2. Use flashtool.
3. If you created a backup using xRecovery, you can restore it.

No backup

You cant brick the x10 just shut down the phone press and hold back button insert usb and.tada you're in flash mode. Your data will be lost but hey phone will work again

Could you please mention your baseband as well. As the theme is meant for the 2.0.2.A.0.24 version of 2.1 only.
Hope this helps

mate,
Its clearly posted that this theme is for Beta3 only.. if ur using 2.1, then your not using Beta3 because its for 2.2 froyo by Z.. U might want to check our what u flash in ur phone before doing it..
Niwei, if SEUS is not working, u might just have to FLASH ur phone again using the flasher made by B4nary.. find it in the other threads.. might help in ur reading.. Since ur already using xrecovery and ur phone is already rooted, try to flash beta3 un your phone then if u dont like 2.2, reflash using SEUS.. hope this helps..

There is also a version for 2.1 as stated in the title and in the thread, but if they've flashed the wrong one then obviously it wont work.

Partition? ext* system?
I think give xrec another shot. Keep pressing back key repeatedly when "SE" logo is displayed. Works for me everytime. Btw which ROM you on?
If that doesn't works then use flash tool 0.2.6 by bin4ry and use the guide by androxyde to re-install xRecovery.

Correct me if I am wrong. But doesnt Xrecovery have a Factory Reset option ?
Aside from that, I thought I had bricked my phone a week or so ago when Z released Beta 4. I could boot up to the SE Logo and go no further, couldnt even get into xrecovery. However, give this a shot, it worked for me to get it into flash mode so I could do a recovery on SEUS..
- Pop you battery out
- Connect USB Cord without batter in.
- Reinsert Batter while holding Back button
- The Screen should light up white for a split second but go back off.
- The Green Light at the top of the phone should stay on now
That should put you into Flash Mode for SEUS. The just do a recovery.
Yes, you will loose all of your information but hey, atleast you arn't buying another phone.

Next time, read the post cleary and don't just think you know what your doing.
If the FW Version doesnt match you can lock your phone up pretty good.
If the Base Band doesn't match up, then you can mess up your Service and possibly put your phone into a repeating boot cycle.

If u have unlocked your bootloader successfully then u can flash a kernel which will have recovery built into it. That will work 100%

Id say flash one of these kernels(fs version probably best) and it will change it bootlogo from SE splash if u unlocked loader successfully. If so, xrec will work when continually pressing back key whilst doomkernel logo is on (it's pretty cool if u not seen before). It guaranteed to be there pal. If u don't see the doomkernel logo (SE one still) then u failed to unlock your bootloader successfully..

As I say pal number one and number 4 u need pal (es209ra) flash the first one (fxp kernel) with flashtool and then boot into cwm recovery (this time it's keep pressing volume down when first bootsplash appears) then install custom zip from sd card and find it then install.

Will not boot

Okay I have seen loots of threads saying that my device got bricked and so on, well my X10 was working fine until I loaned it to a friend, I noticed that the phone would remove the kernel all by itself apparently if I remember correctly, then at one point I mistakenly in recovery formated every single partition, now idk if issue came after that but phone now every single time you try to turn it on it just vibrates once and the after 5sec it starts to vibrate and doesn't stop, it also foes this if you put it to charge after a min or so, also when you plug the phone up to a pc it always is in fastboot without even pressing the back button, now I found another thread from 2010 (dont have link cause im writing from phone) that you must root and downgrade all the way back down to 1.6, but all the files in that thread were hosted in places where the us took down the sites, so I tried using flashtool to flash the original ftf of AT&T 1.6 that shipped with phone and it finishes flashing but it stays with the same issue. Can someone help or is my first android phone dead? Thanks in advance.

hmm.. You can try some things.. on your risk
Charge your phone.
1. Flash X10_aZuZu_Kernel_Downgrade_Generic.ftf
Try to boot. If ok, flash 2.3.3 stock firmware
Or
2. Hotmail is dead.. so you may use this
Old SEUS and others files you can download from my link.
For example, use "UK Generic X10i Firmware (R1FA016)"
Or Working ftf file with Android 1.6 for XPERIA X10
P.S. I'll sent for you PM with key

[Q] Bootloop caused by Removal of battery at Titanium uninstall

Hello,
I did an insane mistake. I successfully rooted my neo L. In order to backup apps and remove bloatware, I installed Titanium Backup.
But during uninstall of bloatware by Titanium I forgot to uncheck some crucial apps, and in panic, I accidentally removed my battery.
And then after I inserted it and restarted, I got stuck in the bootloop.
Symptoms-
1. No LED blinks
2. Cant get into recovery mode (power button press + repeatedly pressing up volume button)
3. Repears after SONY logo is shown.
I tried the following using flashtool, with no success-
1. Reflashed the "MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel" and "Neo L_4.0.4_MT25i Kernel Only"with using DoomLord's root toolkit in between..
2. Reflashed with "MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel" and "MT25i_4.1.B.0.631_KERNEL ONLY" with DoomLord's root toolkit in between.
Can somebody please help me???

That ftf didn't flash properly. I tried several times.
I solved it using PC companion finally. It wasn't detecting my phone earlier for some driver issue which may have failed to install. Anyway, it worked now, and I fully repaired the ROM, but lost data, as expected.:good:
