Hi all,
yesterday I used an emergency method for the second time which saved my phone even when SEUS doesn't respond. Please note:
1. This is an emergency method, if ALL other methods fail. If you are not comfortable with this, then don't do it.
2. I don't know if this works for the new Mini or either Pros.
3. You can damage your phone if you do this incorrectly, so take care, and you do this at your own risk.
4. If you are still in warranty, this can void your warranty if they detect what you've done.
5. If you're VERY new to all this phone modification stuff, you probably shouldn't do this. But, if you are new and all other methods don't work, then you can try this if you don't want to/can't afford to send away to repair.
Still in trouble? This is ESPECIALLY useful if your phone won't switch on, SEUS won't detect it and charging doesn't show LED. Do this:
1. Take off the back cover.
2. To the left of the camer lens is a rubber part covering the phone. At first, it looks like it won't move, but use something small and thin (like a pin or tack) to gently lift that up, and take it away. You need this so keep it.
3. Inside you will see a small white connector. This connects the battery to the rest of the phone. Use a tack or pin to gently pull back on the white part. When it does get loose, lift up.
4. After a few seconds, put that white connector back. I do it by laying it down and pushing in with the pin/tack, and push down. You must hear it click. Be very, very careful with this, it's delicate!
5. Put back the rubber connector and case.
Try switch on your phone now. Twice, this has helped me when ALL else failed...
**When you take off the rubber cover to the left of the lens, you will see this white tab as you can see in this picture. You use a pin/tack to drag that back, then press down again and push it into the phone to reconnect. This resets it.**
I have used this on the 2010 Mini, and I don't know about the 2011 Mini or either pros...

Sure!
Honestly, this method has worked twice now (only needed it twice) and if the phone doesn't switch on, PC/laptop/SEUS don't detect it/no LED or anything...this STILL works...! It's a kind of hard reset we need, if soft reset (home and power) don't work.
can anyone confirm whether this works on the pro yet ?

If I understand it, this disconnects the battery from the phone. On the mini-pro you can just pull the battery.
Sent from my U20i using Tapatalk
Yes, that's right ^^ on the Mini of 2010 you cannot disconnect the battery like normal. This is how you can do it, and it really does fix many of the worst kinds of problems...it re-starts the connection of the phone.
Still not working ;(
i tried this method twice, and nothing happened...
my phone was working fine yesterday, woke up, found it turned off.
i tried to charge it, and it showed no signs of charging, no LED lights, no heat, nothing.
i tried to restart it using the power+home+back buttons, i tried to get it on flash mode, nothing worked.
its still off and NOT charging even though its been connected to the charger for like 2 hrs
anymore ideas?
Hi buddy.
There's something different with these smartphones. This happened to my Mini also. I contacted Sony Eric. and they said make sure your battery doesn't die completely. You must leave it charging in the wall for about 2 hours and wait for an LED (green) to show. If that doesn't work, then I'd try SEUS and repair the phone. If that doesn't work, then I'd try this solution. It really should be the LAST thing you do - if you're not very familiar with this you can break it.
And you tried this method and it did nothing? Really? You disconnected the white wire, waited 10 seconds and reconnected? Then I'd try charging for 2 hours WITHOUT trying to turn it on.
help me plzzzzzzzzzz
Hi!
can anyone help me!
i treied to root my x10 mini pro and something fail
Idont know what happen but i fowlloed the guid but i know that was my wrong i dont know what happend.
My x10 mini pro are breaked now when i try to turn it on it came just SONEY ERICSSON just it, itreied to uppdate by pc.companion but i could not uppdate it becuse the program didnot finde the device.
Can someone help me please.
Tanks!
That is common and you should be able to fix it. If all you did was try to root it, I'm not quite sure what failed. This happens sometimes if you try to put a new operating system (ROM) on the device but something goes wrong.
And PC companion doesn't detect your device?
If not...there is another Sony Ericsson program called SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Companion). Use that instead and tell it to repair your phone. To do so, you connect your phone to the PC, press the power button at the top of the phone AND the middle (menu) button on the front together...then your phone resets. If you have SEUS ready, it will connect your phone, your phone won't boot, SEUS will repair it. The light at the top of the phone will be green if this is working correctly.
Hi, i just bought bricked x10 mini for 20 bucks. I has no sign of life, no led indicator, etc. It's not detected by seus. I also disassembly it to check physical damage( i didn't find any damages).
Phone just won't turn on. Lets check if 2hours charging is working for my case.
Yes, try the charging thing. Sony Ericsson told me to do this by email. I had no idea that smartphones worked like that, but yes. It could have life but not show for 2 hours of charging. (They said DON'T try to turn on the phone while it's trying to charge in this case).
If none of that works then try more extreme methods, like the one I mention with the white cable.
Good luck!
still no luck with charging solution. actualy i've disassembly it so practically i have done your solution. i will go check more deeper about the problem. the worst case is IC failure.
Thank you for the tip phoneyericsson!
I didn't find it hard to do -- I pulled off the ruber thing with a nail, and tweaked out the plug with some small scissors.
I was stuck at the SE logo, and couldn't turn of my phone or enter CWR. I wanted to set it back to standard using SEUS. Instead of using the method mentioned in option 2 here, I simply pulled the white plug to the battery, which turned of the phone. Then I inserted it again and the phone stayed off. Then I simply did as SEUS asked, and now I'm back running, ready to get CMmini on my device again!
That's great to hear! ^^

I successfully flashed my X10 with 2.1 and had no issues. I believe last week I got the multitouch update from SE. No problems. Today however, I had a major problem. I was testing a program called Blacklist by calling my phone from another phone to see if it works. When I went to slide the slide over to send the call to voicemail, the phone buzzed for about two seconds and shut off. When I tried to turn the phone back on it buzzed like it should and that was it, nothing. I updated the phone with the PC Companion, the Update service, and it updated and reinstalled the software according to the program but still wouldn't turn on. I tried to reflash the phone using the X10 Flash tool from this site; it flashed successfully but still nothing. I even left the battery out of the phone while I was at work; still nothing happened. So with all this, any ideas???
Does anybody recognize this and have any suggestions?
I would contact the dev who created Blacklist.
I don't think it was Blacklist that caused it. Even when I reflashed the OS it still had the same problem. My friend mentioned about flashing the baseband. But I'm trying to see what this forum has to say.
If it was the OS, then SEUS or PC Companion "repair software" should work. It basically wipes your phone and does a fresh install, which would fix any errors you created.
Also, try this... Remove the battery and leave the back off the phone. Then plug the phone into the charger/wall with the battery out. Wait for a minute or longer, and then insert the battery while it is still plugged in. Wait a minute, and then try and turn the phone on. If it doesn't work, try altering the steps a bit like starting with the phone plugged in, or plugging it into usb port on your PC rather than the wall. I haven't had to do this myself, but I read somewhere that this works when the x10 dies.
I hope this helps. Let us know how it turns out.
I just tried this and still nothing. I am going to try to downgrade to 1.6 and see what happens.
I downgraded to 1.6 and still nothing.
Forgive me if these questions appear naive or insulting....
Sometimes (actually most times) it is something simple, so let's back up. Since it vibrates when pressing power on button, it would appear the phone's power circuit is functional. How much charge did you have left in the battery when this happened? What happens with the LED notification light when you plug it in to charge? Basically, are you sure the battery isn't dead or worse bad? A red/pink LED notification would be a sign the battery is charging/working.
**If it is not charging check to see if the USB cable or port damaged? I think my usb cable quit working after my first flash. I thought it was my phone until I read about usb cables suddenly not working after flashing... weird? Now I use an HTC cord.
use x10 flash unbricker it solved all my problems when my phone would work.
Hey i had this problem (but i dont have the MT update yet ) but it was my memory card stopping the X10i to not turn on :s try a new memory card XD
@agentJBM
I thought about the same thing last night, so I plugged the phone into the charger for the night. The battery feels warm like it's been charging. When I plug the charger in the green light comes on for a bit then turns off, which is normal. However, still the same issue.
@soldier33 Do you have a link???
@Si-The-Spike I thought about this before. I pulled the memory card and the sim card out and tried to see what would happen, nothing.
I at least know this much: the phone is able to be put into flash mode, and the phone is able to accept a charge. I just can't figure out why it can't boot.
I cant seem to find a working lnik anymore. So ill upload the one I have saved. Hoepfully it works.
Much appreciated
sorry it taking so long got very slow upload speed just 20kb. and the file size is 130mb
here you go zshare.net/download/87207469347a26f2/
Thanks. I'll try it out tonight.
Unfortunately it did not work. I'm completely lost on what happened.
Try completely uninstalling SEUS, PC Companion, and Flash Tool & firmware from your PC. Do a fresh install of SEUS and then try to update/repair software. I read it may take 4 or so attempts, especially if you are having battery trouble.
I've never done it but there is a way to open in safe mode as well by pressing menu button while turning phone on. Try searching that as well.
Hi there.
Got my X10 bricked.
How that happened:
Yesterday put my phone on vibrate/silent mode, shile was at cinema. Battery was about 15%. Later on I ffound that phone is off, thought it happened because of low battery. When I got home I've putted it on charge. Red light flashed few times. After about 2 hours I looked at it and no light was there. Phone didn't turn on. Took battery from another X10 (fully charged) and nothing happened. Tried to connect it to PC to reflash it, but no green LED appeared and PC told me, that unrecognized device found. After few PC restards even this disappeared. Just silence. None of buttons pressing configurations helped.
Tried with no SIM and SD cards. No change.
I have latest ROM on it and xRecovery.
Any ideas of what I could do?
hey dude one thing for ya.. you can never brick your x10 its not those old phones it a computer based/linux phone.. If you go through the forums you can find the info of how to unbrick x10 .. try Pc companion or go to sony website and try SEUS( Sony Ericsson Update service) it'll fix your phone up.ill do my best to post a link for ya if i can find it soon
here u go dude. read through this link and you'll fix your phone..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828398
Thanks. But thing is that phone doesn't go in flash mode. No green LED is on. On first try I got "unrecognized device" from XP, now it's just silent on phone connection.
i think its more in hardware related because as far as i know eh you cant brick your phone. and battery drainage is far related to bricking..so i guess its a hardware problem..maybe you sat on it or something..because bricking is moreon software related.
try this
*remove the battery
*plugin charger to your x10
*hold the power button while inserting your battery.
just give it a shot..
It was in my wifes bag while that happened, but she has her phone just beside mine, so not shure it was because of some pressing on it or whatever.
Tried what you told me - no result. Tried pressing/holding power bttn before, while and after battery insertion.
Again, there was red LED at first, when I've plugged in charger yesterday, but later on it disappeared. I've charged my battery on another phone. Now it nearly full.
Try all solutions before u send ur phone for repair. I had to send my in to ATT and they said it was probably a hardware issue. So i hate to say that but i had the same thing. Sorry to tell u that my friend.that red light is a killer.

got a similar problem.
my x10 will only vibrate and the led blinks green, but the phone won't start.
tries SEUS, pc companion, pc suite, flash tool. nothing helped.
any suggestions?
Well, mine won't even vibrate.
Voelker45, so you got replacement or they repaired your phone? Could you tell me wich part it was?
I bought my phone on ebay, so no way to send it back. And it was in August 2011, so anyway, I have to work that thing myself.

Install SEUS and run it. Select x10 and it will install drivers on your phone. Then plug in your phone and try to repair.
As I wrote before, x10 does not enters flash mode, so no way to reflash.
And looks like it's really hardware issue. Something with powering.
Ok, thanks everyone. Since I bought it on ebay and it would be unreal to send it back to seller and we don't have SE service centers here, I'll fight for my phone till the end)))
Maybe something from this thread will help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944322

Strange thing happened:
Connected x10 to charger without battery. No LED turned on. Left it for a few mins, pluged in battery. No result. Took usb plug out and ! phone turned on. As it was without SIM cars, I turn it off, took battery out, putted SIM in, battery in and... again, it's not turning on. Tried repeating that way - nothing. Must be some hardware connection problem near battery. Will disassemble phone tomorrow.

Me again)
Strange things keep happen.
Here is the story:
Finally, got some star shaped screws yesterday and took apart my phone (thnx to McKebapp).
Non of IC were with readable names) So later on, after few hours of serching I found Xperia X10 scheme files (!!!). So the most probable faulty part would be Qualcomm PM7540 - power distribution IC.
Anyway, it was to hard for me to understand all that stuff in scheme, so I gave up(.
Assembled my phone back again. And just to... em.... have it done, lets say, I took out battery, pluged X10 in charger, pluged battery in. But it doesn't turned on again. So I took USB plug out abd - tadaaa - screen lightened.
Waited till phone loaded, turned it off again, pluged SIM and SD cards in, turned it on again - and it did! It turned on!
So, night passed and it still works.
Btw, yesterday I've rebooted it few times and it still was ok.
I don't know what was the problem, it could be bad contact, but there is no wires between battery and power distributing IC.
Anyway, X10 is back again)
Hi all,
I've spent hours researching and nothing so just looking for new ideas.
The last few days I've been running official SE 2.1 and today it started force-closing many apps. I restarted the phone a few times and that didn't fix it. So I restarted again to go into recovery and switch ROM. The phone switched off and won't turn on. It said it had low battery life if that's a part of it. The phone will not switch on, it will not charge with any combination of with/without SD card, SIM card etc.
1. SEUS and PC Companion will not repair it, they don't see it.
2. Laptop/PS3 don't see the phone.
3. I left the phone connected via the wall-charger for over 2 hours at two seperate occasions uninterrupted an nothing.
4. The phone shows no LED. Not even the quick-flashing red LED when the battery is extremely low.
I searched every SE site where this is discussed and no help, I've tried everything. I emailed SE and they said it would be better to send it away. I note that they charge a fee if they can't fix it. (It's within warranty though) and my phone is unlocked, debranded and shows various mods typical of users' phones from this site and the warranty says if SE find user mods they phone will void warranty. It may not switch on and neither the network or SE may find the mods which may mean I get past OK, but besides that, is there anything I can do myself? Thanks.
REPAIRED MYSELF
After hours and hours of research and effort, 5 minutes after posting this thread I fixed my phone myself. I hope though that this will help others out there. As with everything like this, especially on this site, these are user mods and frequently delicate or dangerous - you do them at your own risk, and could destroy your device or warranty. If you haven't rooted/flashed many times or don't know what they are, you do not know enough to do this. I say this to protect you, trust me.
If you take off the back cover, above and to the left there are two RUBBER coverings. I used a pin to remove the LEFT cover. You see the power connector of the phone to the battery. Use the pin, carefully and at your own risk, to remove the white part by gently pulling back and up. It's stiff so try a few times. You see 3 wires connected to the white tab. I clean the white tab and metal connector with my finger, re-attached the white tab, you must do that firmly or it won't connect, try again and again. Try the power button on the phone when you have it connected to laptop/pc/etc. and you should see the the red LED gently indicating it's slowly returning to power.
That was a hardware issue it seems?
I really don't know...I've seen other's recommend giving your phone a jump-start with a battery and connector but I couldn't find a connector, and just tried cleaning it with my thumb (no obvious cleaning needed, but I tried) and it did the job...strange. I'm sure this info. will help the next person who gets lost. It'll save time and perhaps money. And us guys around here like to fix things ourselves anyway...

Thank you very much!!!!My SE x10 mini now works properly!!!!great fix!!!!
You're welcome buddy! It's nice to be able to share advice with others!
i think,there is no need to remove back pin...
if you press home button simultaneously along with power button for few seconds phone restarts...i used to get same problem.
Hi, my Xperia X10 mini pro is completely dead, it won't turn on, no led turns on when i put it on the charger or connect to the computer. My computer doesn't recognize it, and nothing appears on the screen.
Is there something i can do to ?
Flash tool nor SEUS recognize him, I really don't know what to do.
Can you tell us a little about the history of bricking?
How did it happen, what did you do with the device...
Yesterday I installed MiniCM7 Pro v20, and everything went right, all functions were on and smooth. Today I was installing some apps, and I left them installing, later when I went to see if everything was ready, i found my cellphone turned off. I thought that my battery has been drained, so i put it to recharge, but after 3 hours nothing appeared on my phone. I've already tested my battery with a multimeter, and so the problem isn't in the battery.
I guess this is all.
It could be your usb lead, may be try another.
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
What is happening with SEUS? You do press the back button while connecting the usb cable and nothing happens? It says that you have the latest software installed and there is no option to install again??
Well isn't the usb i've tried another one, from sony ericsson and still not working. When i tri to connect to SEUS it simply doesn't recognize the cellphone even though i'm pressing the back button.
You said you tested the battery with a multimeter, what was the voltage across the terminals? It may show a charge but still be incapable of booting the phone, however, the voltage may be too low to accept a recharge (lipoly batteries have a safety cutout to prevent charging a discharged batter as they tend to blow up - it could be as much as 3v in some circumstances.) I think sony ericsson read 0% at 3200mv or there abouts and 100% at 4200mv.
If your battery is below 3v then you will need a new one.
Sent from my U20i using Tapatalk
Well you said your battery had drained, and IIRC, lithium-ion batteries don't take too well being drained so that might have killed it.
Have you tried plugging a charger into it and leaving for roughly 20 hours?
Well it appeared 3V, but the precision were set so that i couldn't see the number after the dot, i mean, i don't know the "x" in 3.x V
And it is on the charger right now, i'll wait the 20 hours. Hopping it comes back tomorrow.

Well, unfortunately 20 hours has been passed and nothing changed on the cellphone, is there anything more to do ?
The flash tool that you have tried is the one from Bin4ry?
If not try it, that worked for me as i un-bricked my phone after months of waiting for such tool.

Hi,
My x10 mini pro started to act "funny" (restarting and shutting down by it self) so I found this forum. Kept reading a lot of posts for 6h until I decided to try flashing it with a costum rom to fix it.
Flashed via flashtool the Sony Style's 1.1 by paul-xxx; it worked for a while, then shut down again. But this time, with flashing red light (3 times, with hard-reset [home+power button] when trying to turn on and a looping red light (every 3~4 seconds) when trying to get to flash mode.
After some time, it vanished from existence and was presumed dead. No lights, nothing at all. Send to repair, they couldn't fix it, but they restored the lights (red loop again).
So, now it got dead again. I have two batteries, both charged, but still nothing.
I really don't know what to do. I thought it was HW damage, but the repair guy said it was software corruption.
So, any light on my head ? :/

If I could just get it up, SEUS is waiting for it.

Dont know if it can help. .but give it a try with a new connecting wire.. maybe the connecting wire/port is damaged.. because it was the same with one of my friends.. he replaced with a new battery n a cord n it got fixed.. give it a try.. till then will search for u.. if found will post back..
Used a new one, from my girlfriend's 2011 mini pro, bought a new battery and fully charged on another phone. Still, no flash mode.
I would say that the port of the phone is out, but the repair guy used it with no problems... as he said.
The phone was hers, but she bought a new one. once this turned into a brick.
If I fix it, is mine... but, maybe there is no solution... :/
Just confirmed: Battery isn't the issue here. Recharged them to 100% and still the phone won't give a single sign of life.
Apparently, I'm doomed. I don't have money to buy fixing boxes and cables, but it really pains me out.
I already downloaded all the cooking material to start working on it, but... I guess it's dead.
As I searched, x10 mini pro doesn't have a test point, but a cable set up in the back board. But I couldn't find the schematics, just boxes... that will cost me a LOT.
I'll be watching the thread and test new options you guys give me... but that's all.
Sorry to bother you all with this issue..

Phone isn't detected.
EDIT: It doesn't respond with or without flash mode. But when I disconnect it from the cable, he blinks a red light 3 times in sequence. Same with home+power.

You've also installed the Gordons Gate drivers before doing Your tests?
from the flashtool folder install <flashtool folder>\drivers\gg-????.exe
Then reboot pc and re-try...
Yep. GG-setup.exe installed. Restarted.
Phone looks "dead". But it blinks red lights without the charger / cable usb.
Odd.
EDIT: Left charging on the wall with red blinking light. Dead again. No sign of life whatsoever.
Update:
Noticed that it "ignores" my attempts on the screen buttons. Back and home = same reaction... as if I wasn't pressing them.
I'm thinking that I've got hardware problems... or some HARD software issues. =/
