Hi everybody
I need help for my friends xperia x10.
I dont know a lot about Sony Ericsson because im using Samsung Galaxy S.
This xperia x10 was with firmware 1.6 and he tried to upgrade to 2.1. After upgrade he had a lot of problems whith the phone, actually the sound was not working for some days then according to my friend it didnt boot anymore.
The problem with the phone is like this: when you press the power button it vibrates and you can see only the black screen for few seconds. After that restarts and this repeats all the time. When i connect to pc it cant find the drivers.
Please if somebody can help me to solve this because in my country we dont have Sony Ericsson care center.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

Thanks for the help but this didnt work too
During the flash I dont get the pop up message and in the end of the flash i get this lines
INFO - Flashing finished.
INFO - Now unplug the device and power it on
INFO - Then go to application settings
INFO - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
After i turn the phone on it repeats again the same thing. It does'nt display anything just after few seconds it restarts again and again, all the time.
Please if somebody can help me. I just want to know if it can be repaired or not, or is it maybe any hardware problem!!!
if SEUS, PCCompanion or flashtool can´t do the job you may have some hardware issues. in that case, if you have warranty still valid, use it.

Here is an even more specific step by step guide for AT&T noobs....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012380
Usually when the flash tool aborts like that, it is due to either a) battery isn't fully charged or b) there's a problem with the ftf file you downloaded. Try charging battery first and a new download of the ftf firmware.

Have you tried to repair (not update) in PC companion ?
Have you tried with SEUS ?

No Xrecovery backup ?

Hey Guys,
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 don´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...

You have a faulty xrecovery installed mate!
Use SEUS to repair. Flashtool to root.
Once done, let me know. I have a safe, simple way of installing xrecovery (that works).

Hi mate thanks alot for helping me!
Just to let you know..I used the Flashtool couple of times before and it always worked. (even it said that it worked when I did backup)
I still got some questions before I do what you told me:
When I will use SEUS to repair - will it install the stock rom on my device?
Do you think that the flashtool did backup my current version and data?
and..after I'll install xrecovery again..will I have my last "restores"? (will I be able to restore?) because the info there might be more expensive to me than the device itself.
Thanks alot again!! I will start working on it as soon as you will answer me please again A.S.A.P.

Ups backup is required for ur pc so that in case ur current goes off in midway you dont endup in bricking ur fone.
Yes ftf needs to be placed inside firmwire folder.
Open flashtool.re.keep it running.
Shut down your phone ,connect the data cable to phone,keep the back button pressed and insert the data cable to usb port. Your led will turn green. Goto flash and browse firmwire folder to select the ftf file.
Enjoy flashing!!!

"in case my current"=my pc turns off? quit the process in midway? i didnt really understand.
i cannot shut down my phone because its turning on and off automaticly till SE screen..
i figured out how to flash by conecting in without the battery and, press back button while puting on the battery (i hope it will work)
"flashtool.re.keep" -what this means?
but my main problem now is that i cant know what is my battery status (you need at least 50%- so i cant flush untill i find a solution for that..)
any help please??
Tnaks!!

I mean, ups is required so that evem your power supply/electricity goes off, you can carry on your work.
You can use external battery charger to charge your battery only.
Before flashing,pull out your battery...as you said.
Last resort: if all fails, go to se service center, they will repair it. They use the same pc companion. When i tried to flash my fone earlier,i was a dumb fella. I bricked it. Took it to service center and got it fixed.
Before flashing, watch doomlord's video of flasing at least 4 times. Then read the instructions and flash, keep the video running and pause at required places. This is how i flashed successfully on next instance.

Hi mate if you think you backed up properly from xrecovery and it still in sd card, use card reader to retrieve it to pc. The file should be under sdcard/xrecovery/backup/xxxxx.zip. then try recover it from working phone with xrecovery. Hope this help n good luck.

[Q] [Really Need Help] Xperia Neo would not start, only shows "sony ericsson" :(
Hi guys, I am new to this forum and a new smartphone user.
Last night I was updating my phone through PC companion, but the software dies half way for some unknown reason. Since then I could not turn on my phone.. It will only vibrates, shows "Sony Ericsson", and then an image of yellow triangle with an exclamation mark shows up, then it is turned off again. I tried charging, restarting my pc companion software to try to update my phone, but none of them work.
I saw some threads here and it seems that there are possible solutions, but because the terminology is quite strange to me I could not fully understand what I have to do What is a flashtool and SEUS? I tried to search them up on the net but the downloads seem to be unavailable?? I must be missing something here.
If anyone can help me with simple terminology I will really really appreciate it.. Thanks a lot!
Your phone's boot loader unlocked or not & if yes what method?(s1tool,official SE or setool2 paid) ? Here's a good tutorial about flashtool.

I don't think link is right mate, 404 page not found
Anyway @lilbunnyf if your phones boot loader is unlocked using s1tool method do not use seus or pc companion.As I read in forum this can brick your phone.Try flashtool.If you got a locked boot loader or patched one with setool2 then you can use pc companion(this thing saved my phone like 5-6 times now after kinda bricking it with roms kudos se for this xD)

I have the same problem...
but mine already unlock using s1tool, rooted using zergexploit and using cwm...
i wanted to install se tweak so i use cwm the installation is complete after rebooting my phone is bricked... so please... im begging help me...
i've tried using flashtool to reflash to stock but i cant get my phone connected... it seems i cant go to fastboot mode...
I managed to get stuck in a boot loop today. I have a locked bootloader and SEUS did the job, so I guess that is the best solution for the problem mentioned by OP.

Since you unlock it via s1tool, you should still be able to use SEUS.
Anw, why fastboot mode? Have you tried to connect it in flashmode?
I need to flash my X10 Mini, but I can't find the firmware for It anywhere with a working link. Anyone that still have the file and willing to share?
There are only plenty of links to sites that are down
I tried to install MiniCM7-2.1.9-robyn on the phone and then afterwards it just won't start anymore, so i need to flash it and then use SEUS to restore it.
UPDATE!
I found everything and fixed everything I needed by just flashing It with a stock kernel.
Just use the Repair option in Pc Companion.

I'm not looking for how to do It..... Read the question before you post. I appreciate you trying to help, but at least understand what the question Is first.
I'm looking for the firmware for the flashtool so I can flash my device (.ftf file)
They guides that teaches you how to fix a bricked phone got links to megaupload (that got shutdown not long ago) and multiupload (also got shutdown) for the firmware I'm looking for.
If you can't turn the phone on, then flashtool won't help you. You have to able to turn the phone on to get to download mode for flashtool, or Pc Companion, or SEUS to do their thing.
If your phone doesn't turn on, you've got a hard brick. Which is bad.

No, it can be a hard brick, he didn't do anything to put his device in danger (from what he claims).
He just needs a stock .ftf file for mini, which I was planning to do in the past, but did only for the pro... I am sorry my friend... There is only one solution -to make the ftf file yourself, which is something very confusing and you are going to need another mini to do this. But don't get your hopes down, it is possible, at least...

There is only one solution -to make the ftf file yourself, which is something very confusing and you are going to need another mini to do this. But don't get your hopes down, it is possible, at least...

The phone it self comes to a point where there is some light on the screen, but i can't see the SE Logo anymore. I can charge the phone without problem from what it looks.
If I can get hold of another mini how can I make the ftf?
What did I do to achive this problem??
I tried to install MiniCM7-2.1.9-robyn and it ended with a phone that got stuck during boot. Then I got to a guide where someone said "Hardreset the device and use SEUS", but SEUS always says that my phone has the latest software.

As far as SEUS is concerned, you DO have the latest software. It just doesn't realise that what you have doesn't work. Select the option to reinstall the software.

Only one problem here, I don't have the option to reinstall the software at all after it says that I already have the latest software.
Can it be that the option is no longer there depending on SEUS version?

There is a repair option in PC Companion, see it, please! The repair option on PC Companion is Support Zone --> Update --> Repair.
BTW, to hard reset :
1. Turn the phone off
2. Press the POWER button
3. Press and hold home key aprox 3 seconds
4. The hard reset is starting.

I will try that thanks, but you need to hard reset before the repair with PC Companion?
I managed to find the stock kernel so now I'm starting the device, but I get a SE logo and then It shuts off.
One problem when I try to repair on step 2 (prepare step) I get a error unable to start or phone update update components. (the pc companions is installed with the newest version)
Hi all,
It seems my X10 mini pro is completely bricked.
Firstly I root my phone
after that I copied the xrecovery and made a restart, till then everything was rolling smoothly.
I backed up and reseted to factory settings. loaded the new update.zip and after the restart that was needed my phone briked
it's not a common brick. I can't use flashtools to recover it.
here is the problem that appears...
6/030/2013 18:30:20 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
16/030/2013 18:30:20 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted

phone is not responding to any command. Plus it needs to be turned off if you wanna restore the backup you saved previously...when I try to flash it, phone turns ON
I read many guides in this forum to unbrick it but didn't find anything that suits to my occasion.
If any other detail is missing from my report please ask me to add it.
Sorry for my english
Thanks in advance.
Use SEUS to restore Download from:
SEUS
Dont forget to pull of your battery for 4 seconds, for turn off your phone before connect your phone.

Press home and power buttons together, it will restart the phone, then start pressing the back-button repeatedly to get back into recovery and restore your previous rom from there. (Come to think of it, following my last paragraph below, you probably don't have recovery on your phone anymore, so, as Rempty mentioned above, repairing with SEUS or PC Companion would be the start to recover your phone to a usable state,.)
The error flashtool gave you is because you didn't unlock the bootloader and didn't change the kernel on your phone. It can't flash any non-sony kernel on a locked bootloader.
What is this 'update.zip' you're talking about? Most full roms have more informational names to distinguish between different zips. An update.zip is usually only for hotfixes to ROMS already flashed, and not a complete ROM.
Thanks a lot guys. I solve my problem with SEUS.
Phone completely formated.
Love you guys

What's your phone's build date? Ex.11w37(written on the stick placed on the back )
Sent From My BEAST , I mean X8
My build no. Is 2.1.1.A.0.6
Plzz help me..
Plz help me.. I try to unlock the boot loader .. and the phone bricked !!!! what am i going to do??
i try the PC COMPANION but my phone did not detect it..
this is what i did to bring back life to my x10 mp.
Switch phone completely off then if not already running start pc companion. then this step really got to me because of the phone constantly restarting, to get pc companion to detect the phone, i pressed and held the back key down and connected the usb cable just like flashing a new kernel. pc companion then detected the phone as x10. doesnt matter. then start the update and you must do the same thing again to force update service to detect the phone and to give the option to repair. then once thats done follow the prompts through update service, it will then ask you what phone you have, choose x10 mini pro and update.its a long process but be patient and your phone will work again.
Hey guys I used the flashtool to unlock the bootloader and I also followed the steps too but problem is when the phone was rebooted it didnt read the sim card now what should I do ? Please help
