This is confusing please help!! - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok please help!!
I want to flash a 2.3.3 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1209891) and it says to install the latest kernal and baseband .71 so this is what i did..
1. first i flashed the X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_1241-1846 and it had .71 baseband but i cannot root it through flashtool therefore no xrecovery therefore i cannot install the custom rom..
2. flashed x10i_2.1.B.0.1_GENERIC (.67 baseband) and then flashed .71 and my phone keeps restarting..
WHY DO DEVELOPERS THINK THAT EVERYONE ARE AS TALENTED AS THEM!! WE'RE NOT!! please make it easier to understand!! im so confused!

restore with SEUS, root it, install xrec. copy rom (2.3.3) on sd card and enter rec and install rom. do not reboot when its done, pull the battery out. enter flashtool, flash .71 baseband.

There is a root method for Android 2.3.3, why do you recommend him to downgrade to 2.1 first?

that was my edit.... weird it didnt save? i wanted to add that he can also just flash a 2.3.3 and root it.... my bad

can u tell me where i can find the generic 2.3.3 ftf file and the rooting procedure..

If you can upgrade you phone through PC Companion, do it. I will not recommend you use FlashTool to upgrade, but if you want ftf file. Here is it: http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/0OIDEZNA/

both SEUS and PC Companion are different.
try re-installing or try using flashtool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746

Using SEUS, it will work perfectly. PC Companion sometimes ... (what I have to say???)

i've tried both pc companion and seus and still nothing :/ when i use seus i get to the "connect device while holding back button" screen so i do, i get a green LED which stays on for about 20 seconds then goes off and is never recognized by seus. computer recognizes it......help this is very frustrating
thanks
tyler

Did you continue to hold the BACK key when connect the USB Cabble? You must hold it until SEUS tells you release it.

yes i tried that and now i'm getting a windows bubble saying "usb device not recognized" and then after a short while green LED turns off. sorry this is being so difficult...

I believe that flashtool requires Java to be installed. Could that be your problem?

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....
the phone dosen't turn to flash mode

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 ?

[Q]Bricked x10?

So i tried to install Miui_Engineering rom onto my x10 and it got stuck at the SE logo screen, unable to do anything. I tried booting into recovery, tried using FT again, SuperOneClick, SEUS, PC companion, and none of them can recognize my phone, since it can't boot into anything. Can anybody help me?
search and download Sonyericsson Update Service (SEUS)...
install SEUS update SEUS
Connect phone choose update or repair phone
hope this help
Thank you man it worked this time around, don't know why it didn't work the first time..

[Q] Bricked????

My X10 gets as far as the Sony Ericsson logo but my computer wont recognize it. SEUS or flashtool wont recognize it either though it appeares I can get it into flashmode,like the green LED comes on and stays on. I have installed and reinstalled drivers multiple times and I have flashed stuff with flashtool before so I kind of know what I'm doing at least. Any Suggestions would be great.

Try this :
1-Install Sony PC Companion
3-Download flashtool 9.0.0 and not the latest version (because the latest one doesn't work for the X10 I think)
4-Install the drivers located in flashtool's installation directory for ex : C:\Flashtool\drivers
4-Connect your phone in flash mode (plug the usb while holding the back button) and wait for the drivers to install
Just go back to stock 2.3.3 ROM, search for it on the forum, download it and then flash it using Flashtool.
you only need the drivers you have with pccompanion. latest flashtool works for me. search for "dixperia 7 avenger", there youll find stock 2.3.3 kernel. flash it with flashtool and retry to connect to seus.

Start a Repair session in Sony Update Service or PC Companion, this will install the latest official firmware fresh ( you will lose all data ). I don't think there is another option.
If the phone still doesn't work after that i would think you have a hardware problem.

I second that. Once you are on working stock, you can install recovery and take it from there.

don't connect your phone to the pc
you start Sony Update Service
you choose Update
It can't update, because your phone is not connected and it can't figure out which type it is
It will offer a Repair link
You can choose your model there
It will download the firmware
when it wants to flash the firmware: Press the back-button and plug the usb-cable into your phone ( alternatively: if your phone isn't off, connect the usb-cable and press home- and powerbuttons together ).
Wait till it's done and hope your phone turns on normally.

Well.. if you read my post correctly... you shouldn't plug in your phone when it asks for update, leave it disconnected and then it can't recognise your model and assume it's dead, that's when you get a repair option. after that just follow the instructions.

Do it with pc companion, and DO NOT connect your phone when you choose update.
You will get a repair option, it let's you select your model, download the firmware and it wants to flash it to your phone. Then, when it asks for flashmode:
Plug in the USB-cable and then press Home- and Power-buttons together.
Only do that when it asks for flashmode, not before.

Do an update with PC Companion first, it should work now I think, because this firmware is unbranded. You need the *4015 baseband, otherwise you will lose connectivity.

Check if this firmware already has the *4015 baseband, you should be fine if it does, even if the firmware as a whole is not 2.1.1.A.0.6. Otherwise i'll have to see if I can find something else.
