Thanks to all who helped

just use Sony Ericsson Update Service from here:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/supp...10?cc=gb&lc=en
Press back button before connecting the cable and connect the cable.
If u see green light, ur phone is in flash mode!!!

In flashmode you can reflash the android system on your phone, either with SE's official tool (gives your the latest SE version), or with i.e. flashtool, withch allows you to choose what to flash your phone with.
Keep off your phone, connect with USB and press Back button. Stop press Back when green LED is here
Ok, i had to do this twice now, as i bricked it a couple of weeks ago
you'll have to reflash with sony ericsson update service here:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup.../detailed/updateservice/xperiax10?cc=gb&lc=en
Follow the instructions and press the back button before plugging in the cable.
Download the software and keep in mind that playing around with roms will result in these problems so don't go too far.
Hope this helps and good luck

[Q] Unbricking x10 mini pro

Hey guys
I have the problem that my x10 mini pro has stuck in xrecovery while flashing a rom and now ich can't flash it anymore because no pc recognices it
Seus and binarys flash tool don't see my phone so I can not flash it
but I can enter flash mode
please help
in seus start support zone click repair and go further till it shows up that you need turn off your phone and pluging usb with pressed back button.
but my pc and others don't recognice my x10 mini pro...
so seus does not see it
just try those steps first :
1.unlug your phone from pc and turn phone off
2.start seus selsct support zone, click repair phone select continue then next
3.your pc will start prepaering for update
4.select mini pro from list
5.conect usb to pc and then press and hold back buton and conect usb onto phone
6.then it must start dowloading update and repair phone
if still dosent work reinstall phone drivers on your pc and try again.
There is no support zone anywere -.-
drivers are installed correct casuse I flashed it before with no probs
do you have this?
Edit: sory my bad install Sony Ericsson PC Companion from oficial site if you dont have it
I have found it but it still does not work
my pc does net see my phone I don't even hear the sound that it is plugged in to my pc
that is my problem pc companion and seus and binarys flasher don't see it...
is there a other way to flash it?
or is there a thing like the usb brick thing like the galaxy s ?
repeat those steps above with Sony Ericsson PC Companion.it need to work.if still not then are te drivers on pc messed up beacuse this is the only way to fix phone.or try flash tool.
for any other ways i dont know i havent got that kind of problem.
I have tried it several times but every time the same result...
my pc does not se my phone (no sound that it is plugged in)
so I can not flash it anymore...
now I have a full Brick -.-
you cant brick your phone so muct that you cant fix it.
if your pc doesnt recognize your phone then is problem on your pc not phone.
so just for try reinstall your drivers and then you will se
EDIT: can you go into xrecovery and use it?
I have tried it on several pc's and I installed my drivers to flash it correct...
I had done this before and it worked
my pc's havent changed since then...
but after I flashed slades froyo once again (had random reboots, made wipe and tried to install again) it stuck while flashing in xrecovery and the only thing I could do is to put the battery out...
And now it won't be seen by any pc...
and not form seus, pc companion, and binarys flash tool...
then i dont know what is going on with your phone beacuse no one had this kind of problem.
can turn on your phone is there any sing if it's working?
I can turn it on and it repeats booting...
classic bootloop but nothing else no xrec and not even charging -.-
and it is not seen by any pc -.-
well your phone is still working this is good sing.
pc will not recignized your phone when is on boot.
but is strange why is not recognized in flash mode.
maybe you could try with hard reset and then it could be recognized.
hard reset is on the right site of camera over sim try with that
can you post a picture of that?
and are you sure that this is a reset button?
well some one on forum mentioned that.
hmm I tried it but nothing happened -.-
an it does not feel like a kind of button...
guess I need to send it back to se...
and wait 3 weeks till i get it back
USB maybe

yes it is the usb
but i don't have a clue how to fix it
there is nothing broken but it doesnt work no more

[Q] I am Stuck At Sony Ericcson Screen on my x10mini HELP NEEDED!!!

I recently tried to install cm7 and now i ma stuck at my sony ericsson start screen and i cant return to recovery can someone please help me
I think you brick the phone, try the repair procedure with pc companion, it will reset the default factory value... sad but worked on my xperia x8
Pull out your battery and then reinsert and use buttons to go to recovery ( volume down, home n power)

if you really want to use miniCM7 and have your BL unlocked, just flash nAa's kernel with flashtool
if not, you absolutely need to start from the beginning using SEUS, sorry (post 3 of my FAQ, you'll get links to debrick )
and read carefully everything before making mistakes
I was in the same situation. I installed minicm7 pro v20 and then it entered infinity loopboot. With luck, i pressed the menu button for some seconds just before "sony ericssom" appear and then i entered in the CWM 3.2 menu, where i did a restore.

Don't worry if the Flashtool says 'USB debugging is disabled' if you enabled it before flashing it,it is because the Flashtool got a problem with connecting to your USB debugging feature in your phone...
About the bootloop,it is considered a softbrick as it can be fix as long as you can connect your phone to your PC in Flashmode

You dont know which rom?...
OK, repair with pccompanion
Not much more advice can be given with scant information like that
do you want to record a video and upload ?
i am uploading a video and the rom that i was using was 2.1 oficial with xrecovery root etc.
My advice remains the same..use pccompanion to repair your phone.
Download it, instal it, run it...it will sort you out.

Hi mate, i think i can help you.
1. Go google search for "Sony Ericsson Update Service" (SEUS) and install it.
2. Run the program,accept the terms and conditions,and select your device.
3. Now turn off your phone,if you stucked then remove your battery and place it back.
4. Press and hold back key then plug in the USB cable and conect to PC/Laptop.The direction is on the screen.
5. If the program detects your phone,then now wait and allow program to search for update.
6. If it says that your phone have the latest firmware installed, just continue and click Install.
7. Now wait for the program to download the firmware and wait to be installed.
8. After complete of install firmware, The program will ask you to disconnect cable and turn on your phone.
9. First boot may takes longer time and
Done! Your factory state X10.
Go on again to root/unlock and anything. ;D
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the program cannot detect your phone,
download the Flashtool from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
and download also the firmware file(in .ftf format)
the flash it with flashtool
Give me a THanks if i helped you out
6.
I saw your video
First you are holding BACK button & and then your plug in usb, right?
I tried everything with flashtool with adb commands with flash tool and nothing should i open and do something at usb port ?
Can i get the xrecovery back ? for unbrick it with deamon guide ?
when you connected the USB cable did you already have the back button pressed or not? I could not see that from the video...
Run seus or pccompanion...hold the back button and then plug in USB

Yes...use pccompanion and repair phone then use flashtool to reroot and install xrecovery, the whole process will take about 15-20 minutes depending on your download speed for pccompanion....

Run pccompanion.
attach phone to pc in normal mode
click on start in support zone
click on start in next window
Let it check your phone
click on repair
follow the instructions
If it doesnt work on pccomapnaion download seus and try that.
If it still doesnt work, uninstall pccompanion and seus, reboot pc, redownload and install them and try again.
also, you can goto to the driver folder in the flashtool folder and run ggsetup to install drivers on the pc
let me know how that works, because if that doesnt then you have a hardware fault on your phone, not a software problem
do i have a broken usb port ?

do not panic. It happened to me last week. Phone won't register on pc until you connect in flash mode to flash a new FW with flashtool. You may already know this but
1)DON'T CONNECT PHONE
2) Start FlashTool in flash mode, choose ur ftf, click ok.
3)Wait until the screen prompts you to plug in ur device.
4)Hold the back button while plugging the usb cable into the phone (make sure it is connected to pc first though)
5) Phone should start flashing, wait until it completes.
If step 5 doesn't take try again from step 2.
AGAIN DON'T WORRY!! Happens all the time.
