THATS STRANGE BUDDY..!!

green led
I guess you don't remember having 1.6. the led used to be red till it was about 90%+, then would turn green. most of the custom roms made it simple, green means charge.

You should be able to install baseband .52 if you follow my guide from my signature.

[SOLVED] Battery Not Charging While Connected to Power plug

Hi guys, Need help, My battery was charging properly all these days, suddenly from today evening it is not charging when connected to the power plug, although charges properly when connected via USB When i connect it to the power plug th light goes red but the battery is not charging (no lightning streak in the battery / settings>about phone>status says not connected). just updated to the new f/w a couple of days ago.
build no = 2.0.2.A.0.24
baseband = 2.0.49
was playing around with the 2.2 roms today but after a while restored it back to stock 2.1 (backed up via xrec), Noticed this issue when i put it up for charging, so i cleared the battery stats via xrec but nothing happened, so after a lot of searching found a solution, to reflash back to stock fw ( so used SEUS and updated to stock 2.1) but still the issue remains.
Any suggestions guys????
Is your battery charger working first of all? Borrow another charger from a friend of yours and then try charging it. If if gets charged then its your charger who is at fault.
If not then it might be a hardware problem.

Thank you for the suggestion <AdY>, but why would the light turn on whilst i connect it to the wall???? that's whats bothering me... if the charger wasn't working then the light also should'nt be working right???
Theres about 5-6 pins inside that connector. Maybe its damaged and the ones that say connected are connected, but the ones that put the power down are damaged?
posted direct from the legend that is the x10i... the fastest processor, the slowest response...
Check the usb in the phone aswell..

its connecting to the PC fine, and its charging as well so, am daily charging it that way... could messing up with batt stats in xrec be a reason???? cos the problem began after a wipe in xrec (factory reset, dalvik cache and batt stats) while installing froyo ( tried TripNRavers and then Free X10) right now am on AOSP 2.1 8b.
Tried everything but nothing worked, changed the charger now everything's fine. Thank you for the suggestions people...
I was thinking it was more of a software issue as it happened after i wiped the batt stats in xrec for the first time, maybe it happened co-incidentally, That's why i was trying out all the various softer ways to it ( flashing various roms, versions, downgrading and upgrading my baseband etc etc...) in the end, the base of my charger was at fault i guess... but still when i connect my phone to the old charger, the LED lights up and display switches on as if charging, that's what still baffles me... and my battery indicator pro status changes to fully charged

green light bootloop

hi everybody
i got a x10i today and the guy had it before tried to root it.
when i plug it to the charger the x10i always shows the green light for a few seconds, after the screen starts to light but no logo just light, ..after that the phone shutdown, after a few seconds the green light turn up again
without the charger the x10 blinks three times red
i also tried to charge it for about 3 hours.
i already tried to flash with seus and everything worked fine, ..but after its finished i got the same as before
somebody an idea?

Actually, after charing try also reflashing firmware just in case. I hope it helps you, succes. Battery stats may be corrupted if I guess it right.
ok, i charged it for about 18 hours now and flashed the phone again but still the same, ...i turn the phone on the green light blinks up and the screen starts lighting for about 30 seconds, ..after that the phone restarts
i flashed with bin4arys x10 flasher, the generic rom
is this ok if the phone is orange austria branded? ...because seus or pc companion does not work anymore for update. donno why, x10 flasher just works fine, says everything is ok

I think you should really try SEUS. It's the best way to repair your phone if Flashtool doesn't work. It's also the easiest way. It SHOULD work, if it doesn't you're doing something really wrong.
This is what you are going to do:
You have to recharge the battery outside the phone, in that state the phone doesn't allow you to charge.
Then using flashtool you need to install branded or generic 1.6 donut you can grab one from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872298
Im with Orange dominicana i used the firmware from
france found in the post.
Othewise SEUS will always prompt you that you have the latest software installed (Assuming that you are using the 2.1 Eclair right now).
After you have installed the 1.6 regardless if it worked or not, connect it to SEUS try to update and just wait (if SEUS doesn't want to update as you mentioned before try to uninstall it and downlad the latest version)
If that doesn't work let me know i have tried other methods that worked for me.
You can see my post i was having the same issue.
It's called Xperia X10i restarting loop.

And i tryed to power on, and the green led blink very short, after that vibrate but, don't show to me nothing on display. I know is anormal to blink that led green, and also i knew he must show sony or sony ericsson (the brand) after vibrate...but only vibrate, and that's all..............I dont have any idea, where to be the problem...Pls help me, and also, sorry for my english. Thanks a lot!

and i forgot to say that, i tryed to install a news firmware, and to i leaved battery out from phone 2 days...but no change...is same - black
So, when you try to turn on your device, green LED blinks, phone vibrates and that's it?
What happens if you plug in the charger? Does reinstalling the firmware(Flashtool or Update Service) fix the issue?
What ROM/Kernel did you have? If stock, rooted or not? Any modifications?
Also, wrong section to post it.

Rom is the last one from SEUS, i dont know to say the model, but anyway, i tryed not only that, also all i founded compatible for my model. Without root. I know normally is to dont blink any short led when is power on...

looks like hardware problem. check the battery by putting it into someone else mobile.
What firmware did you have last, when phone was still working?
Was your bootloader unlocked or not?
My next idea is warranty service.

[Q] Xperia U problem - hardbick?

hi all.
after flashing the F/W from a differnet xperia (P i think) to my XU :silly:
after a few mins shouting at myself, i let flashtool complete, then reflashed an official XU ftf.
After my fudge up the phone LCD, backlight, illumination bar dont work at all.
All i get is a red LED for 5Min when plugged into the mains
i get a red LED for 5-10Min when plugged into Laptop, no popup on laptop (connected device)
It seems as tho it doesnt want to charge but i luckily have another battery from a different model
BUT the strange thing is, if i tape a coin to the side of the phone either Vol+ or Vol- i get no green LED or blue LED just Red.
After 5-10min of my XU being plugged in fastboot or flashmode spring into life and i can flash an aray of things with SEUS or Flashtool, and can even lock and unlock my B/L. BUT After all of that nonsence the phone is still unusable.
Is there anyway out of this without sending device to sony??
Please Help XDA
here is the fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230098
donot forget to press thanx
Ok thanks for the info.
Now the phone is acting in another strange way. I've flashed the correct F/W then the wrong F/W in question then re flashed the correct F/W.
the red LED has gone out, still no LCD display and no illumination bar but im surprised to see it popup on my laptop in MTP Mode without USB debugging. Ive had xperia u, xperia P and XPlay for some time and have never experienced this.

Yah i forget this boint
You should flash gb not any fw but wrong fw(no problem if it's gb or ics)
Slowly getting there.
cheers guys i flashed to gb then ics. i still have same symptoms , only plus side is that instead of taking 5-10 min to register on either fastboot or flashmode (Still Red LED on both) it only takes a few seconds. Im thinking that having flashed the wrong F/W it may have "blew" the screen, digitizer and illumination bar
Take out battery. Charge with auto charger..put it on...it will vibrate.now flash

[Q] Please help Xperia X10 Not turning on Issue Tried everything :(

Hi Guys I have spent past 5 days searching google watching videos on youtube and I still have issue with my Ericson Xperia X10
I have downloaded Flash tool and that stuck on reading device part and does not go any more.
I have downloaded updates service but it cuts of after url downloaded the software need it, and when it tries to update the phone it self.it says fail I tried this few times.still same thing.
I have downloaded Sony PC Companion same thing it will not update.
I tried videos on youtube from plugin phone in to main charger not the PC and sticking down the on button still nothing happens
I also tried pressing Volume and on button same time still nothing happens.
if I plug the phone in main charger it blinks with red light if I try and turn it on it will blink 3 times with red light and nothing happens
on some occasions it will have steady green light for about 5 minutes and then it just goes off and no green light and no blinking.
This is really frustrating for me and any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have Sony Ericsson xperia x10 ( white version ) please advice.
Thanks guys.
The red flashing LED generally indicates the battery is completely depleted.
Plug the phone into a wall charger and leave it for a few hours, after which (hopefully) you should see an solid red/orange light as it charges.
If it does start to charge when the red LED stops flashing and you get a solid red/orange LED I would suggest to charge it for a good 12hrs+
If may take over an hour before the red flashing LED stops and turns a solid red/orange depending on battery state.
For best charging(and if you still have it) use the original Sony EP800 charger with Sony EC600L cable that came with the phone, as this 'pumps' the largest amount of Amps into the battery and charges quicker.
If you don't get a solid red/orange LED on the phone after approx 3-4hrs charging, then you may need to look at purchasing a new battery.

Try removing the battery from the phone and leaving it out of the phone for 2-3hrs.
The green LED indicates it's in 'Flash mode' and thinks it's waiting to start/complete a firmware install.
I'm guessing you don't have a Sony EP800 charger and Sony EC600L cable and that you using some other combination of charger/cable.
[Update]
After the battery has been removed from the phone (overnight would be good) then insert the battery back in the phone and see if you get a solid red/orange/green charging light and if so, charge for 12hrs+
The reason I ask about the Sony EP800 charger and cable, is that I know it provides over 900mAh draw which means the phone 'should' know it's a AC wall charger, but many other charger/cable combinations only provide a USB ~500mAh draw which could prompt the phone to think it's still attached to a PC and thus remain in it's last connected state. i.e. Flash mode.
Just an idea.

Hi did you install the driver's for flashtool from the folder?
If your SEUS file failed during download then re-download it and go back to stock.
It will update itself and restart be patient :good:
After the install is finished Sony Update Service start's up then follow the on screen instruction's. Agree to license - click Start - Choose x10 - press next etc
Just Follow onscreen Instructions
If your phone has trouble with back key and plug in usb,
Then leave the usb plugged into both phone and computer with your battery out!
Then hold back key and put your battery in :good:
