X10 Mini Pro bricked - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello ! I have a Xperia X10 Mini Pro and I have flashed my telephone with a custom rom 2.3. It has freeze in SMS application and I have reboot the smartphone, since it does not restart. I have flash the telephone with Flashtool and SEUS with rom 2.1 but does not work. Help me please,
PS : Sorry for my bad English, I'm French.
EDIT : It reboot in a loop.

I would try removing the battery for a minute or two, remove and format the sd card (backup any data you want to save) get SEUS up and running on the PC and then connect the phone. Select the option to repair and wait.

I have already try this method but this not work
EDIT : It would not be a hardware problem?

I have downloaded the official firmware and flashed it myself using x10FlashTool.
later then I updated the firmware with SEUS.
Hopefully it'll work the same for you.
Best regards,
Ron

I did that but it does not work :'(

did you try PC Companion? it work for me

Not work for me.

Help me please

SEUS will work
Updated firmware with SEUS dont click on repair, Just click on installed.
If it say that your phone has already updated ignore that & click on "install" & follow procedure.
Hope it work It work on mine.....

Does not work for me :'(

wOrHeR SvK had the problem and yesterday he got his phone working

I had this problem a loooong time ago too.
Lucky for me my wife got the same mini pro and had not yet updatet the original stock ROM in any way.
I connected her mini pro to SEUS. Got the update-notification, followed to the part where you remove the USB-cable, turn off and then reattach the USB-cable while holding the back-key (only here i attached my bricked mini pro).
Guess the rest...

Bad news for your phone.
I think your phone is fully bricked and I think there's no chance to recover it.

its not fully bricked
its maybe having driver problem on his pc

Look u deffo got the drivers for your phone and are u using seus properly because seus will always fix bricked phone unless manafacuring prob and 12 month warenty because they cant turn it on so they cant no had root
Seus or return

My Mini Pro flash very well without any errors but it does not restart.

This can be boot patrition problem, go to service or try Davinci team's flash tool(10euro ).

when you see the sony ericsson boot up enter xrec and reinstall... if can't connect your phone to pc and reflash using SEUS or SE PC companion...
Well, this is the mini forum, not the mini pro. So if you took a rom from this section it's probably not compatible with your phone.
Also, use the search function. It's there for a reason.
Lots of people have problems with bootloops, just browse the forum for a while and you will most likely find detailed help for your problem.
boot in xrecovery go to advanced options -> wipe dalvik cache
1. Replace your battery or press both power button and home button
2. switch on phone
3. if see SE logo, press back button 1000x until xrecovery window show up
4. restore your back up or try factory reset
5. reboot
if cant boot to xrecovery then your phone is totally brick...
repair it using SEUS... and start all over again
Yeah, here's the Mini Forum, not Mini *PRO*.
Use the ROMs from here
Repair a phone isn't a hard thing. If you've made a backup before install the rom just restore. You can use SEUS (aka Sony Ericsson Update Service) to restore the phone. Try to reinstall the ROM. Make sure you followed all the steps during the ROM instalation.
Sorry for bad english.

[Q] Help Pls! I Think I Killed my Phone

Hi guys!
I think I killed my phone. I upgraded to the GingerDx - V13 ROM, the first day it was working fine. Then the next day the screen is getting messed up until it won't start anymore. I tried using PC companion to hopefully factory reset it but (which it manages to finish the restoration) but now it is really not booting. It just lights up and then turns off. No SE logo or anything. Now I'm stuck as I don't know what to do next.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

PC companion is not good.. try flash with SEUS..!! Google it..u may find a download..
In order to restore a bricked mini pro:
-Launch SEUS (NOT PC Companion)
-When asked to plug the phone, press Home+Back (and keep them pressed) and then plug the phone on usb.
-Release Home and only keep the "back" button pressed.
If you followed the sequence properly, you will see the green led on and flashing process will start. If not, try it again.

I forgot to say that my LED is not working anymore (dunno why) I am trying to find SEUS installer. It seemed like you can't download it through SE's website.
EDIT:
WTF?! I dunno there's another XPERIA Mini Pro which is NOT X10 Mini Pro. I flashed my X10 Mini Pro with the Xperia Mini Pro ROM Maybe that's why it's not booting anymore.
I tried reflashing it with the correct X10 Mini Pro (via PC Companion) ROM but still no effect. Maybe I messed up the phone big time? I will try SEUS if I can find one. I hope it works.

Looks like a hard brick in my opinion if you flashed the wrong phone's firmware I suggest you send the phone back to SE for repair.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the link. I tried using it, still not working. I have a feeling that it really is hard bricked now. My next try will be using flashtool this time.
Edit:

try to unplug your batterie, wait ... plug the batterie, start into recovery ( clockmod ) and reflash with a new rom .
If your bootloader is lock, you cant brick your phone
How to rescue our bricked phone for x8 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
PS: Are you sure you have the good firmware ?
In the post of doixant ( x8 ), you can see : Latest kernel and latest baseband xxx015
Another exemple : MiniCM7 for X10 mini ( not pro ) : Latest 2.1.1.A.0.6/2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware / Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 due to kernel dependencies. This is automatically tested during the installation.
I guess, it's same for all custom rom

Do you have already use Flashtool ?
If your are under Vista or Win 7, you must disable the UAC ( User Account Control ) for flashtool works. Search in google, I m french and i've found lots of pages, but in french.

I'm sorry, but I really think your phone IS a hard brick now . I remember reading about a user that flashed a Galaxy S firmware onto his Galaxy S2, in the end he had to send his phone to the repair shop.
The same is probably true of your phone. I think you had better send it to the repair shop .

I've tried all the obvious stuf with the Sony tool (repair / reinstall) also tried sim lock repair utils. but no luck...

It will not, if you hardbricked it find a local repair shop that will JTAG the phone with a riffbox or with a similar hardware tool. Hardbricked my x10 mini pro and coughed up 25 euros to return it to life.
My phone stuck at boot screen. So how to tap connect my phone to pc?
I attempt to install custom rom and I forgot to wipe dalvik cache. Now it's stuck at boot screen.

If your provider didn't change the software on your phone too much, this will work. It will work best if you leave your phone disconnected from your pc until step 7

[HELP]X10 Mini pro completely BRICKED.

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
Click to expand...

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:

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

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
