I've tried to boot in safe mode but it doesnt help, how to do solve this? Anybody got any tips of what i can do because this really sucks! Thanks!!!
the theme may be not applicable. the only way is reflash your rom by using se update service

thats right, you must reflash, but what did you wrong?
Reflash - only variant. In future, use xRecovery(search in this forum), he knows how to do full backup of the firmware, and all user data.
simple flashtool 0.2.9 will solve ur problems, look for it on developement forum
Hello
I've installed the [ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.9 following this steps
i've previously installed a CWM
restart in recovery
wiped data/reset factory
wiped battery
wiped all ...
install Rom
install gapp
and now my phone doesn't goes to recovery and all i get is a black screen whit "Sony Ericsson" legend
please some help.
i post here, because i haven't permissions to post in the developer forum asking for help in the thread
sorry about my bad english
Did you unlock your bootloader using Flashtool?
You also need the latest version of nAa kernel installed.
Thanks for the answer
I didn't unlock my bootloader using Flashtool i haven't do that before and didn't read the installing instructions for doing that my fault
and didn't installed nAa kernel, because i think didn't need to install the kernel obligatorily
is anything i can do to solve this problem ??
You do need the nAa kernel to run MiniCM7, it just won't work without it. Next time you think about installing a rom, make sure you read all the instructions first. Especially if you're using custom kernels as that's a good way to give your phone a real hard brick.
What you've got is a soft brick. The phone still works, it just doesn't work as a phone. A hard brick is when your phone doesn't do anything at all. Which is bad.
All you need to do is download and use Sony Ericsson Update Service. This updates your phone to the latest, official firmware. If it complains that you already have it, choose the option to reinstall it anyway.
This will wipe all the data on your phone, but not your sdcard, so you'll lose your contacts, sms's, etc but you backed up anyway, didn't you?
thanks Ticklefish for the answer
i did that and now i've my phone back =D
Mine wont do that :-/
When i follow your steps Ticklefish i cant connect to the phone. it pops up with a message that tells me to pull down the status line which i cant because i only gets to the Sony Ericsson boot logo.
Got any tips for me?
thanks in advance

Is your phone in download mode when you get that message? And is it SEUS you're using or PC Companion?

I think i was using the same as in this thread, that might e why it failed, but i'll just start rooting my phone now, and then wait and see
i'll just search around x10 forum to check out some tutorials, but thanks anyway
hey guys, this is my first time i would say i bricked my phone. i need someone to help me my phone has been in 'coma' for nearly 2 days now.
so this happened when i try to apply this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306044 and after i carelessly copied framework-res.apk to system/framework using root explorer without setting the correct permissions, my phone automatically shuts off and try to restart but it failed, it stucked on the big sony ericsson logo and 'sony ericsson' text.
i have pull out the battery hundred times and try to reboot my phone normally but it didnt worked it still stucked on the sony ericsson logo.
so can anyone help me please...
what tools/application should i get to fix this?
first of all, i dont want to wipe/lose/factory reset my phone memory data because that would make my phone contacts gone which i never ever want to happen. so please is it possible to backup my contacts somewhere else if wiping is the answer at least??
okay i took a lot of time to type this and hoping someone give me an answer
Hi, what is your model no? and you rooted it?
Sent from my ST15i using xda premium
i use sk17i mini pro as mentioned above and yes it is obviously rooted
Congratulations, you have felt the power of customizing Android for the first
Actually, one way to fix this now, is to get back to fully stock firmware.
The second way would be to unlock bootloader, install a custom kernel, enter recovery and use Fix Permissions option. Unfortunately, not all Recoveries have this, only some versions of ClockworkMod Recovery. I have used many kernels on my LWW and only some of these included this option and I can't remember which one had, which not.

If contacts is too important for you and you have no backups, then go for the 2nd way - Unlock bootloader and install a custom kernel, which offers the Fix Permissions option.
I will check the Update Service, if Repair option will erase user data or not, currently updating my phone.
EDIT: Yes, removes all data.

If you can access flashmode, then your okay. Just flash stock firmware.
Will check Flashtool option.
Yep, you're correct, Flashtool has option to not wipe user data.

Flashmode - Turn off phone, connect USB cable to your computer, hold down Volume DOWN button and connect USB cable to your phone.

Once you have phone fully booted I suggest to install CWM recovery mode (you probably don't have it now) - CWM installation file - run install-cwm1.cmd and follow the onscreen instructions.

You should probably get a backup app and backup your stuff or either root again and install CWM and backup that way

plz help me thanks in advance gents
Actually, i think you could've salvaged your phone without the need of flashing it... If you had access to CWM, you could've put framework file into zip file and flash it with CWM. It helped me once when i got stuck in bootloop after failed installation of a mod

its very easy to recover your phone if you got bootloop or stuck at sony ericsson logo. dont sweat.
first of all you need a stock .ftf firmware downloaded. any .ftf stock firmware .58/62/42 or whatever as long as it is stock.
then download and install flashtool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351309
then put your downloaded .ftf firmware at c:/program files/flashtool/firmwares/"your downloaded .ftf firmware"
then open flashtool and click on the lightning icon. and choose flashmode.
then press volume down button, while you do that connect your phone to pc using usb then flash the firmwares. then boom your phone back to life

Hi,
I checked the forum and try those and it didnt work.
This is the story. i try to install a custom rom to my friend's xperia x10 mini. I unlocked the bootloader. Rooted and installed a kernel Jelly Bean Mini projects kernel. Also install the apk for CWM. After i flash the JB Mini Kernel i stuck at the JB Mini logo. Entering the CWM does not worked. Then i paniced and flashed the custom kernel. Then this time it is not opened only stuck at the SE logo. After that E10i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Sony Ericsson.ftf firmware and flashed via flash tool. This time is stuck in the boot logo loop. It didnt give a chance to flash another kernel again. Opening and resetting again. ALso PC Companion Repair doesnt work because it get disconnect on doing it.
Also i tried home screen and power button to reset and then try to flash mode and it didnt allow me to do it. Do you guys any suggestion. How can i get rid of it and get back to normal.
All helps will be appreciated. Thanks.

yes it will ask you to connect in flash mode.... while the pop up screen shows the image of phone. connect your via usb and press home+back key it will hard reboot the phone, once it off keep holding the back button you will see led turning green and it will go into flash mode and you follow the on screen instructions
let me know if it works

Make sure you're talking about the right model phone, the Xperia Mini and Xperia x10 Mini are different phones. If you have the x10 Mini, then fastboot won't work at all.
Yes, CWM is available by repeatedly pressing the back-button when the kernel-logo shows, and it is included in ALL custom kernels for the x10 mini, just not on stock, so if you flash a custom kernel it is already available without any further action on your part.

Hi,
U really.have my attention there. My friend have xperia x10 mini. I tried to install a custom rom on her device. But I messed things up. Unlocked the bootloader and installed jb mini.kernel and stucked on boot.logo. Then I flash custom kernel again now its stuck.on.boot logo like a loop. Seus repair wont work because it disconnects simultaneously. Also flashing a kernel didint work either. I hope somebody helps me to recovery the device. After that somehow I can install custom rom.
Thanks. I really appreciated.

Yes, the JB kernel requires you to format the /system, /data and /cache partitions in CWM on first boot, otherwise you get stuck, and you'll be unable to install the JB ROM. (Mind you, if it's version 4 of Stelios97's JB Kernel, that's been reported as not working at all)
(Not sure if you're doing your friend a favour with JB just yet, not if she wants to use her phone like she does now, you might be better off with MiniCM7)
Make sure your batter has a decent amount of charge in it, and try to flash this with flashtool, it's stock firmware that should get the phone back working properly.
After that, you can try again with the custom kernel and ROM.

hmmmzzz, sounds like your battery is empty... leave it to charge, preferably from the wall-charger.
It *should* turn on, show the white Sony Ericsson text and then a battery...

If the ftf i sent you flashed without problem, you have the latest firmware from sony, so SEUS can't update your phone from that. What does it do when you connect it to the wallcharger?

I connect to the wallcharger and try to power on but there isnt any Sony Ericson logo. its just 1 moment bright screen and some kind of reboot i guess. Then a bright screen and then dark.
Do you know what is the problem here?
Hi All,
I recently installed CM 9.1 on my Sola in the hope that it was a software problem that was stopping my reception from working. Alas, it was not, and while I was enjoying CM I now need to restore stock software to see if I can get the phone repaired.
I tried using flashtool, a version that has the .54 and .10 firmware built in. First I cleared all the cache as per the normal approach from the boot loader to install a new ROM, then I used flash tool to flash .54 stock firmware. Unfortunately now it has resulted in the boot loader being removed, but the boot still shows the CM startup and then after a screen saying "Android is updating" it says a whole bunch of services can't be open. Clicking OK just enters me into a loop of the same services failing to start. If I let the screen lock I can't do anything but a hard shutdown with power+volume up. The unfortunate thing about this is that then the phone starts up automatically and I can't go into flash mode to try anything else.
What is the best way forward from here? I can wait for the battery to go flat and then maybe get into flashmode, but how do I restore stock?
Thanks
Lionel

Figured out why the flash didn't work, the built in was just the kernel. So now I know how to do that part, just need to know the best way to get back into flashmode.
Must be a bad firmware you installed. Check if you have the correct drivers.
