Hello from Brazil guys,
Xperia X10i 2.3.3
SD Card 2GB
Baseband .71
Locked Bootloader
Custom Rom
New Android user (3 weeks i guess)
The problem:
I was having fun with my phone, new rom and etc.
I was in xRecovery, so i deleted the /system folder by mistake. Im a idiot, i know.
Now, SEUS or PC Companion cant help me. They say that i already have the latest update.
I have some custom roms, FlashTool and other things downloaded. If it helps.
I dont know what to do.
The phone are stuck on Sony screen. Of course.
Now, i need help.
Sorry for my trash english.
Best regards,
Scarlet.
Edit: I forgot: I cant boot on Safe Mode or xRecovery too.
if you can still boot and go to xRecovery, then you can simply restore one of your backups. or if not, you can try to flash using flashtool.
try xRecovery restore first.

If u can't update with SEUS, u need to use flashtool for X10, just download the genetic ROM and install it, it's easy, no big deal.
I hope u can do it, cya

You can flash the ROM via xRecovery to get the latest baseband & kernel.
Is in general section, make a little search.
I could install via flash, the problem is that my phone is not recognized by the PC, that includes the flash mode
basically the only thing I can do is use the xrecovery, and acess the SD card.
so I stuck to the baseband version of .49.
anyway I think I found the post about it. Tehouster Thanks!
I found the post but need to install the .sin files by FlashTool anyway = (

You can use xRecovery for the FW, but the kernal needs to be flashed with the flashtool.
this is the post I had seen,
Although I can install the 435.zip with xrecovery
but not to install the 435_FT.zip because this is installed via Flashtool...
By the way, installing only the 432.zip, the baseband becames Unknown and will not recognize SIMCARD

Well,you flash the rom back to 2.1 by using the xRecovery backup and you should flash .67 baseband after the backup also.
You did not flash the .67 BB so it stuck at SE screen.
Please try to install the usb driver to make flashtool work again.

Please answer this question, what the heck did you downgrade, I hope you just downgraded the kernal.
What method of rooting did you use?
But first, what is your phone's:
firmware: 2.1 or 2.3
baseband
do you have xrecovery
If you would like help, I and others are willing to help you. Just post again and I will post links of the rooting method and guides to flashtool.
It happened to me... I was trying to install Jerpelea's latest 2.3.5, and suddenly my phone keeps rebooting from SE logo.. I can go into xrecovery, but when I try to recover a backup, it says it can't mount the sdcard...
What can i do?
Is my phone ruined??
Tks..
Have you installed latest SE adb driver?
Unplug your battery about 3 minutes then plug it again, use flashtool to flash 2.1 firmware, then connect it and press back button till green light appear, let it alone till finished.
Root your 2.1 fw, install recovery, and simply flash wolf 2.3 ROM, unplug your battery, plug it again and flash baseband 71.
Now your phone should be boot properly.
You almost cant break your X10 by flashing anything, cause bootloader is locked.

You cant ruin it mate.
Just install your recovery again, try with apk.
I think you have old recovery, cause this problem appear when gb just released, and now fixed.
You can find topic about it on X10 android development forums, Z already fixed it.

Ok, but the problem is: I can't start the phone, and the sdcard doesn't mount properly so I can recover a backup....
How can I install de recovery again without starting the phone?
You're right, I had the old recovery installed...
EDIT: And now I cant even go into recovery... It's fully stuck on SE logo... Damn!
Turn phone off. Boot pc companion. Goto update service. Click update. Says no phone found. Click repair option. Follow steps on screen. It will flash latest SE firmware. Root. Install recovery. Restore your backup on your now mountable sd card. Done you can't break this phone, can always restore through pc companion.

Flash stock firmware from flashtool, if you dont know about how to use flashtool.
Just go to x10 android development forum, find thread about flashtool by androxyde.
Dont be so worry about your phone, you cant break it with flashing ROM or kernel.

Hi. I'm a newbie on xda and I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me.
I have a problem with my X10i. It used to run stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread with root access and busybox / xRecovery 0.3 already installed. I decided to install DiXperia 7 'Avenger' by DiKeJ (greetings, buddy) on my device using xR. I downloaded the ROM and pasted it directly into my SD card. Then I did all the steps:
-Factory Reset
-Wipe Cache Partition
-Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Wipe Battery Stats
I choosed Install Custom Zip to install DX7. The console displayed few lines of code which I don't remember and this error:
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Device or resource busy)
E: Can't mount /sdcard
After this my phone freezes on SE logo, I can't run xRecovery, system or even charge my phone. I tried to flash it using Flashtool, but it doesn't recognize my device.
Is there any chance to resurrect my Xperia? I want to use it again, even with the stock ROM?
Greetings
Yes it possible, and impossible to break your device for now - sometimes this problem exist, don't know why, and not only on my ROM - it's possible on all X10, I had it too one time when I wanted to flash Wolfbreak's ROM v4 (old time ). Let's back to your problem - you need to apply again Stock ROM 2.3.3 - install it via SEUS/PcCompanion (or FlashTool, but I suggest official app. If you can't flash via FT, then you need to update your drivers for X10), and then make Root, Busybox, and xRecovery 0.3, I suggest you GB ready (the newest FlashTool have it included all). Then problem should dissapear, without anything. I think it should help. Take care buddy .
DiKeJ I can't remember. Does Your ROM require an unlocked bootloader?

Use this tool forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415600
Thank you very much, DiKeJ. My X10 has been saved!
But I still want to install DX7. What did I do wrong (or what's wrong with my SD card)? How can I make it work next time?
Anybody care to tell me how to get any of those methods to work? I got my x10 stuck at the SE logo while flashing, and I can't do anything with it. None of the programs can recognize it and it won't boot into recovery.
can you help me my x10i freeze at "Sony Ericsson" after rooting kernel help me please
im from philippines and i don't think we have sony ericsson care here
can you send me in my email? [email protected] please
I guess the best solution to get ride of this issue is to flash the stock full firmware and then do everything from the beginning.
To do that, you should visit this topic : [TOOL/X10] [UPDATE 07/04/2012] Flashtool version 0.6.9.0
Then flash a generic firmware(you choose whatever you like) using flashtool
Once your phone is booted, you can try to mod it as you wish.
If you would like to change the kernel, I advise you to unlock the bootloader : read the topic
Hope this gonna help

It should work in x10i manong, just start from the beginning which you need apply again the stock 2.3.3 ROM from sony ericsson (sony mobile these days) via PC Suite then Root and install busybox and xRecovery 0.3 and the problem is solved. I tried it to my friend's phone which is x10i also, and it works. Just follow the instructions given by DiKeJ and you'll be fine. :good:
Hi everbody
I tried to install this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707876 but when I finish the instalation, the phone just bricked at the sony ericsson logo. I realy need help. :crying:
Sorry for my English.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Did you install the recommended kernel? Did you wipe what had been asked to be wiped in the thread? Did you wait for at least a few minutes before concluding that your device is bricked? Did you attempt to enter CWM and try to restore a backup? Did you try to boot into CWM and install another ROM which had previously worked for you?
All those things needs to be done before you can call your device a brick. It is no where near to brick I suppose.
Anyways, if nothing works, try to flash any official firmware for your device using flashtool.
Also, check the First Aid thread that had been pinned up in this forum.
Thanks,
Rick

it happens to me if ur phone can go to flashmode... then u can always flash the original .ftf files for mango... or u can also use wotan client... it also hapens to me when i acidentaly flash wrong kernel...
i hope this gives u any idea....
Don't worry It's not bricked, it just wont load the OS (ROM). If you have locked bootloader, then flash official firmware through PC Companion (SEUS), if you have an unlocked bootloader then flash the official firmware (ROM) through Flashtool which you can find here, and you need to download appropriate ROM for your device which you can find here. Hope I helped.

If you can enter flash mode, then use flash tool.
Unlock bootloader, install custom kernel, install the ROM once again and you're done.
No need to install stock ROM first, if your target is installing the custom ROM.
SOLVED
I want to tank you all for your tips, you all been helpfull.
I used the Pc companion and put my mini pro with the orignal rom again.
Thank you all one more time :good:

Please flash the unbricking ftf (link was posted by xhanafix) and afterwards the stock rom ftf again.
And NEVER EVER apply updates over the air again! Flash them with flashtool or use custom roms!
