Hey Guys,
I've broken my Xperia X10 Mini...
I tried to flash it using Flash Tool and firmare E10i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Sony Ericsson.ftf (I read that it work to E10a to )
And everting looks good, but after the process he can Turn On!!
When I push the power button, my cellphone vibrate, but don't appear anithing...
I tried to reinstall using SEUS but he says that there's no longer update avaible and don't show me any option to "install anyway"
Can anybody help me??
Try to find a way to unplug the battery.
I don´t know what the Xperia looks like inside but on the Mini there is a small rubber thing behind the cover that exposes the battery connection.
Have you tried hard reset?
And then SEUS?
Yeah, I tried to reinstall by SEUS...
I have shutdown the Battery and nothing...
Is that Hard Reset is made by Hardware???
I can't find anything about that...

i just tried to install a theme on my xperia x10 mini..done all the process root,mount copy,paste etc....and when i rebooted my device it shows only the task bar on the top and a white blank screen.i know i did something wrong but i really need the telephone these days.the only thing i can do is to press the power button and turn it off....is there a way to restore the original settings?and try again later with the theme?
You are wrong to upload the theme on your x10 mini, most likely you build a theme other than that you tried to install, you must reset the phone via Seus. It 'the only way. Sad but true.
what is seus?

SEUS is sony ericsson update service, download it from sony ericsson website, update your phone and it will restore to normal. Or it it can't work, use flashtool device from the forum.
warning : read carefully before starting to use flashtool. , and yes it's pretty stupid of you to install custom themes without knowing any contingency plan
edit : and btw next time, use xrecovery, it's so much simpler than the copy paste method. The installation is in this threat title xrecovery
the problem is that i can't tap anything on the phone so seus didn't work for me..i can only press the power button and then switch it off...i'll try the flash tool..
@fuster92... i didn't understand the shortcut seus so i would i appreciate help than criticism...thankyou
Just download sony ericsson update service from sonyericsson website, install it and run it. Then you follow the onscreen instruction.

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.

Hi everybody
I need help for my friends xperia x10.
I dont know a lot about Sony Ericsson because im using Samsung Galaxy S.
This xperia x10 was with firmware 1.6 and he tried to upgrade to 2.1. After upgrade he had a lot of problems whith the phone, actually the sound was not working for some days then according to my friend it didnt boot anymore.
The problem with the phone is like this: when you press the power button it vibrates and you can see only the black screen for few seconds. After that restarts and this repeats all the time. When i connect to pc it cant find the drivers.
Please if somebody can help me to solve this because in my country we dont have Sony Ericsson care center.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

Thanks for the help but this didnt work too
During the flash I dont get the pop up message and in the end of the flash i get this lines
INFO - Flashing finished.
INFO - Now unplug the device and power it on
INFO - Then go to application settings
INFO - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
After i turn the phone on it repeats again the same thing. It does'nt display anything just after few seconds it restarts again and again, all the time.
Please if somebody can help me. I just want to know if it can be repaired or not, or is it maybe any hardware problem!!!
if SEUS, PCCompanion or flashtool can´t do the job you may have some hardware issues. in that case, if you have warranty still valid, use it.

Here is an even more specific step by step guide for AT&T noobs....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012380
Usually when the flash tool aborts like that, it is due to either a) battery isn't fully charged or b) there's a problem with the ftf file you downloaded. Try charging battery first and a new download of the ftf firmware.

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:
Tried FlashTool, still dead. My phone needs an overhaul Too bad it's not under warranty anymore
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.

1. SEUS : Says ur phone is already update and show Xperia arc in backgroud. No update available
2. PC companion: Tried all the tricks to start w/o connecting n all still the phone is not detected.
3. Flashtool, tried flashing it with 0.6.8 and 0.2.9.1
4. I have also used other tools like superclick, root / unroot and S1 tool (no of them worked)
Now, nothing is working with few red blinks and gree light..

FIX!
I had the same issue when I was experimenting with ROMs and Recoverys, but not to worry, Sony PC Companion 2.1 does the trick!
Download PC Companion 2.1 from the Sony Mobile website
1. When you download and open it, click start under Support Zone
2. Click start under Phone Software Update
3. When the window saying that a phone could not be found appears, click repair phone
4. A windows like this will appear, click continue to proceed with the repair of the firmware
NOTE: All data that is placed on the phone memory will be wiped but any data saved on the memory card will be spared
5. After clicking continue, a window like so will appear. Tick the box and click next to continue with repair!
6. Sony PC Companion 2.1 will now prepare the computer for the firmware update
7. Now choose your phone model, in this case it should be the Xperia X10 (X10). Select the phone and click Next!
8. Follow the prompts to repair your phone!
GOOD LUCK!!
Always fails for me.
All process end in fail
There must be a file I need to rename or something....
tried everything now...
I have tried everything by now, here i have attached a attachment of error i get while repairing my phone through SEUS..
only option is box flash, but i think its kind of risky...
Fail fail fail..... i'm getting hopeless wif my X10
Hey,
I did some re-search and got to know that somehow my X10 flashes as So-01C in some systems, i.e. xperia arc, even while updating ..........
Anyone here, knows other ways to flash through box other than technician, coz these technicians are real idiot they can crap your phone in 10 seconds, so its better to crap it yourself...
"alternative to box flash, please ???"
Try this
Had the same problem once, when my phone would not start at all, all I had to do was connect it to the PC Companion (2.0), at first it wouldn't repair but after a certain amount of tries it did the trick,
First: Make sure all your drivers are installed, if they were installed there should be no problem.
If they were not, the computer cannot identify your phone, try installing some other x10's drivers (cause your's is bricked I assume) that might do the trick aswell.
Open PC Companion > Support Zone > Phone Software Update (Start) > Follow Instructions > Repair
It might take several tries to get it right
If this doesn't work try the latest flashtool, it should do the trick !!
There must be something you are not doing right, else SEUS/Flashtool should have worked like a charm.
see i get this reply, when updating x10..
I have tried this like thousands of times, installing roms and then removing them and repairing the phone, but this time it has gone over my head........
