WHY... use a custom ROM, if you don't know how to handle it.. Of course it got stuck at the logo.. you format /system. There is not much more your phone could had done.
If you format everything, make sure to at least install another ROM in xrecovery, before you reboot.
I read the steps but when it says 'connect in usb slot', it wont work because when i plug my phone in my computer, it says that it isnt connected.

You need to connect it in Flash Mode, not just attach the cord.
Press and hold the back button (that's the one on the right)
and while pressing, insert the cord in the USB slot (assuming of course the usb cable is already connected on your PC).
A green light will flash steadily and the procedure should go on from there.
Ah! After you see that light, you can let go of the button!
FYI, the reason all this happened is because you formatted /system partition.
Practically, the phone is not stuck. There's just no firmware on it to load.

you solve the problem?? i'm in the same situation, please help
I dont think my x10i flash mode is working. Mine got stuck after Flashing XperiaTW rom using xrecovery. It will bootup, and then shows Android system not responding force close/wait. clicked both , shows up again . now i dont really know what to do
Just use flashtool/SEUS and flash in the latest stock firmware.
Your cases are not the worst ones we've seen in this community.
i forgot to turn debugging in applications.. my xrecovery also doesn work... is there anyway to restore original settings?? pls reply asap
Hi every one
the best way to overcome this problem is to download Sony Ericsson Update Service (sony-ericsson-update-service.en.uptodown.com) and take your phone back to it's primary status.
I had this issue..
Where my X10 starts automatically(even after pulling out the battery and putting it back again) and get's stuck at the SE log, and you won't be able to go to Flashmode to use Flashtool.
Simply, follow the instrcutions below:
1. Take out the battery.
2. Connect the usb cable to your computer.
3. While holding the back button, put the battery back.
4. You are in flashmode again, Green LED should be on.
5. Done!.
X10 - stuck on SE Logo
Hi ,
I have this problem as well, the phone is stuck on Sony Ericsson Logo. Just hangs there. I tried with flashtool to no avail, pc companion and update service. ZIP .. nothing !
It seems like it doesnt want to flash. Please help me..
In SEUS if you connect the phone with BACK pressed for 5 seconds it`ll restore to your previous state ( i think) :cyclops:

You soft bricked your phone, so follow these steps
1) Copy all important files from your MMC are copied onto your laptop (Music, snaps etc)
2) Now format your MMC (external SD card) and wipe everything clean (system cache,data,Delvik Cache) from your phone using CWM
3) Copy required ROM onto your MMC.
4) Flash the kernel and WiFi module (some WiFi modules can be flashed via CWM)
5) I usually flash WiFi module after flashing my ROM (flash WiFi module only if its required)
6) Install ROM and reboot
7) Good to go
Hopefully this helps
I have the endles sboot problem also:
I updated the phone using PC companion to the last version and still i have bootloop. And the update proces was a succes, no error ocured.

Hi guys, really need your help!!!
Been using Custom ROMs since Omnia HD. Loved the work of cookers, never had problems, ODIN is just so easy.
Four days ago, tried to flash I9100 from Lite'ning v5 to 6.1. So, as recommended I wiped cach with CWM, and then done proper FORMAT.
Once I pressed it, format started but didn't finish - the phone restarted, and continued to restart - stuck with boot "S" animation - so can't boot into system.
Then, tried as suggested to install VANILA latest firmware - tried it - didn't work. Keeps freezing in the middle of the process in ODIN - or - it says FAILED. Now, i can't use CWM - if I press Volume UP +HOME+POWER, i get "Mobile phone with yellow Triangle with PC signs" - left to the right.
Updating to the VANILA software doesn't work, so as Lite'ning V6, or any other versions of it. Without CWM, i can't boot from SD Card to other cooked roms, so please, any ideas will be MUCH APPRECIATED !!!

This solution doesn't work. Because, all that I can do is to log into DOWNLOAD MODE, once I connect the phone via USB to PC with Kies ON, then the Kies doesn't recognise the phone in this mode, so there is opportunity or possibility to do an emergency firmware recovery - if anybody knows anything abt this - please comment ....

Put the phone in recovery mode with Volume UP +HOME+POWER (it won't be CWM because you tried to flash stock, it is samsung's recovery mode), "Mobile phone with yellow Triangle with PC signs" and try it.
Let me know how it goes.
just checking... when you flashed through odin, was kies turned off? Meaning not even in the background and it's (process) not present in task manager?
Because that's what happend to me when i tried to flash a kernel to my SGS2. odin failed too but good thing my phone wasn't bricked.
Anyways, I would recheck the custom rom you downloaded, it sounds like the file was incomplete, or damaged during download. Always check the MD5 checksum, or at least the filesize.
Some custom ROMs cannot rebuild a formatted userdata partition. Most custom kernels cannot do that, so doing a factory reset (wipe userdata partition, format data partition, etc) is not recommended.
FIX:
Boot into Clockwork Recovery
Format cache, format system, format boot, format userdata partitions
Boot into Download Mode
Use ODIN to flash to Stock ROM
Boot into Stock ROM
Flash Custom ROM (Lite'ning), DO NOT FORMAT USERDATA and DO NOT FACTORY RESET!!
Boot into Lite'ning
CM7 using codeworkx kernel (CM7 kernel), is the only custom rom that does not have a rebuild userdata partition problem.
for my i9100 i solved this problem
i have the same issue and i solved with my i9100:
unmount battery and leave it for 20 sec
push up vol and home and keep it then put the battery !!!!! put vol up and home still pushed
if ....if you entry in recovery mode wipe data and cache and .... voila...
sorry for my bad english...hope this will work for you guys !!!

Hi, fellow citizens of xda!
Today, I think I bricked my XU. @ XDA, I found a 30 volume step mod, and how just as the "tutorial" said, I try to rename the "framework.jar". But, when the renaming process is still doing, my phone restarted, and get bootlooped. Fortunately, I can get access into recovery, but I can't mount my SD card through the CWM recovery. Later, I read somewhere, that I have to format my system/data/cache, and then it can connect to my PC. Well, it doesn't, and my phone get stucked @ the Sony's logo, and I can't enter CWM anymore. It still do nothing.
About flash to a ftf.: when I open flashtool, and select flash mode, when the flashtool ask for my phone (vol down + cable) the LED bar turns into green for 3 sec, and then the whole phone restarts, and get stucked again @ Sony's logo.
Is there any solution, to get back my phone to life?

Hi,
Hope someone can help. I've tried to install a custom ROM today and I'm afraid I managed to brick my phone (Xperia P). Here is what i did:
I started out according to the Starters guide:
-Rooted phone
-Installed CWM
-Made a backup
-Unlocked Bootloader
-Installed JB Moonbreaker 3.5: at this point I was actually still following the starters guide, as in: wiping cache, wiping data,wiping dalvik cache and then installing from zip.
-The phone is currently stuck on the loading screen that comes after "Sony" and "Xperia" (the colorful swirling thingie)
-I can only shut it down by pressing and holding the power and volume up keys until it vibrates 3 times in a row.
-Starting with pressing volume down key repeatedly will not bring up CWM (also gets stuck on the same screen).
-Will also not fastboot anymore properly. (waiting for device for "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version"; LED on device will not even light up as blue, goes to green instantly)
-In Device Manager I can see it as "Android" with a yellow exclamation mark.
-Sony PC Companion gives me the "My Sony Xperia P LT22 is connected" popup every 15 seconds but will actually not show the device as connected
I'm wondering if I can flash a stock rom on it to recover it or if there is anything else that can be done.
Thanks in advance

Can't seem to get it flashed from flashtool. I'm pressing the back button and connecting the USB and I'M just getting the same stuff on the phone, while flashtool is waiting for the phone.
I did manage to enter fastboot again though. Should I be flashing CWM from here (since I can't enter it). Or kernel then rom? I'm a bit lost.

Its volume down key and Plug in USB, to enter flashmode
Not back button.
Or flash a kernel by fastboot mode, enter CWM and install the ROM (assuming you have the zip file in the SD card )

No luck. I get a green LED and nothing happens. If I hold down volume down for really-really long then I'm back to the same boot animation.

yes green LED it is,
i hope you had the flashing process ready at the PC right ?
First make sure your phone is shut down. long press power+vol up until you feel 3 vibrations.
From there you can try fastboot mode or flash mode.

Alright done all that, still is the same. I've started to play with other USB ports and I noticed that when I get connected it tries installing the SEMC Flash device driver. It fails with "device unplugged" message exactly at the same time when when the Sony logo appears. Then it tries installing MTU USB Device as well. Reinstalled flashtool drivers and tried in different ports. It seems as if the phone is not staying in flashmode?

I recall I had that issue with wundows 7 at the beginning, what I did then was to boot my windows xp and managed to flash from there.
I have tried many things since, and if I am not mistaken it's installing flahtool drivers that fixed it finally.
I think there are 3 drivers there you need to install.

you can use emma flash tool by sony to flash your device once u get into flashboot mode(vol down den insert usb cable)
you will find it at sony developer site
did you tried to flash the rom over ICS, if yes then thats why your p got stuck at boot, coz i too got the same prob, when i tried to flash the JB moonbreaker over ICS, so what i did was pressed the power button and volume up button till 3 vibration, start flashtool and flash stock ICS firmware, but don't uncheck wipe data, otherwise you will get bootloop, after flashing is complete, now download and flash stock JB firmware, root your phone using doomlord's easy root kit or any other way you know, install cwm and now reboot into cwm flash JB stock or custom kernel and then the rom, thats it, just let me know if the prob is solved, thanks

Thanks everyone for the input, issue resolved, kernel and rom flash was successful.
Stuck on boot
Guys I have the same problem.
I wasn't satisfied with the rom I put on my phone so I went on to put another one on it.
Flashed the kernel with fastboot, went into cwm, deleted system, cache etc. and went on to flash the rom, but there was no rom zip there, and I was sure I had put it. It was probably an error during the copy procces and it just stopped, I assumed it copied.
Well, now it is just stuck on the boot screen. I can get into fastboot and cwm, but I have nothing to flash.
I tried using the Sony recovery "Emma" but it just stays blank when I connect the phone..
Is there something else I can do?

Hi
I think im facing a very similar issue, i m very new to this and therefore didnt understand the solution. I did visit the developer site for emma, but can you tell me the exact thing to do after starting Emma. I mean, when do i connect the phone and how, what commands to give. Below is explanation of how i got into this and what all ive tried.
OK i ve been trying to flash a new custom rom on my Xperia P, i looked at a number of guidelines and doing things step by step.
Since im very new to this i downloaded a few Roms. I was following the guide "http://droidors.com/2014/07/08/update-xperia-p-lt22i-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat-with-slimkat-custom-rom/2/" and everything was going fine. I reached the step to "fastboot flash boot boot.img", i did that and then went on the next step to boot in CWM Recovery and install the zip rom and the Gapps. During the Zip Rom install i got status 7 error.
Now, i noticed that i might have flashed the wrong Rom so rechecked the guide and installed the correct Rom which is mentioned in "http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/rom-slimkat-4-4-2-release-candidate-t2657795" . But now THE PROBLEM IS, AFTER I FLASHED THE INCORRECT IMG, MY PC IS NOT RECOGNISING THE XPERIA P SAYING IT DOESNOT RECOGNISE THE DRIVERS, therefore im not able to copy the ROM Zip on the SDcard, to then run it from CWM.
After sometime i tried the below
Ok, now i tried to flash the stock Rom through this link "http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/ftf-firmware-xperia-p-generic-world-t2322163", through flashtool to bring my phone back to life. I installed the drivers as per instructions from drivers folder, but for some reason the pc is just not accepting. I did install through this exact method yesterday night and it worked perfectly.
Please suggest. I hope im asking at the right place.
Urgent help please
I forgot to mention, after I flashed the SlimKat Rom, and things went out of hand ( till this point i could see Slimkat logo at boot and could also go in CWM Recovery ), I tried to restore through Nandroid Backup i had done. As soon i selected the restore option and then the backup file, within 2-3 seconds the phone went off, and then on boot all i can do is see "SONY" on screen. Nothing else happens.
I ve tried all this on a different machine, with different wires and different USB port, no luck
Kindly advise, im stuck with no spare phone.
Solved i guess
OK Brother,
I downloaded EMMA and am currently downloading the service. It is very self explanatory. What was amazing is when i recognised my phone "What a sight "
Flashtools wasnt able to do that, so i guess the manufacture tools are damn important ( i wasnt exactly of the opinion before )
Also it is downloading Android 4.0.4 Build 6.1.1.b.1.54, which first came on the device, which also makes me think may be i should have tried that rather than trying to flash with the JB Rom all this while.
Man, i was scared. Thanks for this thread Bro.
God Bless
Will inform once the phone is booted up to confirm it worked.
Emma Worked
OK guys, I can confirm its EMMA "Flash tool for Xperia" fixed the problem for me. It installed 4.0.4 on it.
Also there is a pdf in the Download which guides about the usage.
Sigh
Correction- it installed the latest stock ROM jb
i was flashing United Kingdom 4.1.2 I9100XWMS2 on odin, it started up perfectly working perfectly i then turned off my phone (not power off) and then when i went to turn it on again it was a black screen and nothing happened when i was pressing the power button, i took out the battery and put it in and it came up with the boot screen but it got stuck there so i took it out again did the same thing and still stuck on boot screen, i tried booting into recovery nothing happened, i tried booting into download mode nothing happened.
UPDATE: I tried going into download mode again, it came up in a red message saying LOW BATTERY!
UPDATE 2: Just plugged in a usb charger, offline charging working i guess it shows a big battery and green stuff at the bottom.
UPDATE 3: i got into downloading mode i tried flashing my stock XXLPQ 4.0.3 firmware but it got stuck on NAND WRITE START HELP PLEASE!!!
UPDATE 4: Nothing is working guys, everytime i get stuck on NAND WRITE START

Try to uninstall your usb drivers , the go here at the end of the first post (OP - this is Convert kernel zip to tar tool, but no need to do any conversion), download usb drivers and odin. At post #4 you have pre made kernels. Flash any kernel you want DorimanX or Gustavo in AP or PDA box and make sure re-partition NOT ticked. After a successful flash you phone will boot and stays at the boot. take off battery and insert again , power up with power on + home + vol up to enter recovery and format ONLY these partition /data& cache - dalvik cache, system, preload. Once in recovery, your will be able to mount usb or mtp device to recover your files and try flashing a custom rom!

hey dude i got stuck on zimage in odin, the problem is mostly the flashing part i am using kk-kernel-04-02-CWM-for ODIN.tar
(Gustavo Kernel)
It shouldn't stuck, try other kernels, doesn't matter that they are kk or lp. try other usb port, even another pc!
Edit: I forgot , try another cable! Flashing via usb cable there no room for error, so no faulty usb cable ports and corrupted drivers!

i tried the same kernal on my windows 7 computer (different pc) it shows kernal on the top and then it shows the green progress bar and it fills up but still stuck on nand write start please help, this is not even my phone its my friends
i was originally planning to install cm12.1 on this phone, i rooted it but i got this yellow triangle and i tried apps like triangleaway and that didnt work and this made me want to flash a stock firmware so that made me find a 4.1.2 jellybean firmware for i9100 so i flashed that, all working fine but then suddenly it goes black screen and it gets stuck on boot screen. i want to reflash this firmware and stay on stock but it might get stuck.

thank you i will try see if it works, if it fails im gonna take it to a repair shop
ok my phone is not charging anymore. it says low battery cant enter download when i enter download mode. when i charge my i9100 it gets stuck at a grey battery with a android loading circle in the middle. i think this may need to go to the repair shop. when i try to just power on, I now have a yellow triangle with Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 screen and its just stuck there
sorry for the late reply, but it failed, im going to take it to repair shop

Fair play...If you feel there really is no other option.....at least you tried....
Just beware, you *could* end up paying more for a repair than the cost of a working secondhand S2....
