Hi,
yesterday I bought SE Neo and it was working fine, then I updated it in PC Companion to the latest version ( 2.3.4 ).
after update finished the phone doesnt boot/work at all.
When I long press the power bottun it just vibrates shortly. and when I connect it to PC the green led light works. but nothing else.
the phone is new with stock rom(not rooted). even haven't install any app!
I tried to use the flash tool But while processing it asks me to turn on Unknown source and Debugging.I cant turn on the phone to turn on these things!.
please help
That's quite weird man.. you should just contact SE support. They have live chats I think... Good luck anyways
I'd take it back where you bought it from and get a replacement handset.
Where did you buy it? Sounds like the bootloader has been unlocked.

Hi there
The xperia of a friend doesnt boot anymore?
He told me he pushed on update under settings and he had and 1.6 that i know off.
I tried flashboot but in the middle of the instalation it gives me a error.
Also i chanched the battery because it kept falling off out suddenly.
Whit the new battery it started normal bt after update it cant boot anymore?
thats all the information i got
Could this be a usb problem in the charger the led goes green on the phone and also the pc recognize it.
Sorry 4 the bad english btw
Thanx in advance

A quick simple to use fix is Re-flashing using SEUS "sony Erricson Update Service"
Or using the FlashTool from the development thread.
AFter 11 retrys on SEUS it installed the update.
when the phone turned on i saw a picture of a camera and after that a sony ericson logo.
And then it turned off and it doesnt go on again.
Even with the new battery installed + a new cable????
But the green light says its charging but maybe it isnt?
USB port problem?????
Finally got it going android starts everything works but now the phone turns off out of nowhere?
Hi everyone
yesterday I bought a X10 (it wasn't brand new)
I turned it on and it asked me for settings (language, time, etc) (yeah it's not new but they changed the rom before sell it to me)
I worked with it for like 10-15min and I got a big vibrate and it turned off. I pluged it into the charger, there was an orange led for 5min and then nothing, when I tried to turn the phone on I saw SE logo and it restarted. I plugged it to the charger, nothing again, not even orange led
I took it to a store and they shocked the battery, i came back, turned it on, it booted ok everything was fine,I plugged it again to full charge. orange led for 1.5h and then green led.I worked with it a short time then turned it off to put the sim and sd card in
when I turned it on it booted till lock screen and rebooted. again SE logo then boot again
it sometimes boot till lock screen sometimes only se logo and reboot
when it goes to lock screen I see antena has red x on it, i thought maybe that's the problem, i removed sim and sd, still the same
Please please please help me
ps 1: I can't connect it to the pc, I tried but when pc wants to recognize it and install drivers, it stops and says "not successful"
Have a look in the dev section for flashtool (there's a tutorial in the q&a section), look in the firmwares sticky in the dev section and download the firmware for your region. I suggest you pick a generic firmware. Now use flashtool to flash the firmware to the phone.
This should solve the problem.
thank you Frosty for fast answer
but my problem is my pc dosen't recognize the phone
flashtool works even without drivers?
Flashtool works in flash mode. If you can't get your computer to recognise the phone when it is powered on, it should still recognise it in flash mode. If not, there is an option in flashtool to install the drivers.
Sent from my x10, rocking Wolf's 2.3.3 + DooMKernel, overclocked to 1.2 GHz...
good, so I think I still have a chance to fix it
btw, now I have stock 2.3.3 installed
which rom do you recommend? should I install 2.3.3 again or downgrade to 2.1?
I want it to support farsi
X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_CUSTOMIZEDARO-ARO GENERIC 1241-1846
is right?
You could do 2.3.3 or 2.1. It shouldn't matter.
As for Farsi support, 2.1 supports more languages than 2.3.3 I think. I just checked the list of available languages on my 2.3.3 ROM and Farsi isn't listed. 2.1 might support it.
You could always try both to see which one better suits your needs.
That firmware you have is 2.3.3, by the way.
thank you so much frosty
I asked if i could install 2.3.3 because now have 2.3.3 and i have this problem. installing same version will fix it?
and one question about baseband
should i download one or it comes in firmware pack/zip
if I have to download it, how do I know which one?
Your're welcome.
Oh, in that case, you should be fine.
The baseband is included in the firmware file.
I'm facing a weird problem
I can't turn my phone on, I've been told to try flashtool and install a new rom
my old rom was 2.3.3
I downloaded flashtool and X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_CUSTOMIZEDARO-ARO GENERIC 1241-1846
first time I tried instrudoction in second post in this topic. it seems flashtool recognized my device and startet flashing but after a few min it said flash aborted
I wanted to try again but this time even before i connect the device to usb cable, flashtool say flashing start and nothing happen
I also tried SE update service, it downloaded the rom and it seem it worked (second green bar went to the end and said disconnect phone and restart)
I restart the phone but it reset after SE logo, sometime it boot till lock screen and reset again
Please help me
Sorry to say this, but you might be out of luck.
If re-flashing stock couldn't fix it, your issue may be a hardware problem.
Do you have any sort of warranty? If it's second hand, you probably don't.
You could try taking it to a Sony Ericsson service center and see if they can do anything.
omg
I'm officially beeeeeep
thanks anyway Frosty
btw, pc campanion and se update service do something different
is it possible that pc companion can fix it?
Well you could try. Couldn't hurt.

You had unlocked bootloader.
Check my tutorial, link in signature.
Also, flashmode is turn off phone, hold down volume down button and connect USB cable.

oh, good.
it's disappointing to know the service center didn't fix your phone. i guess warranty is just good for factory defects.
exactly ...if its a software fault we are better off solving it on our own from xda than service center...... they r only good for hardware faults..... and most of them are not covered in warranty i think
but they took my warranty papers and cancel guarantee...what a bastards
i am using now this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444858

if guys still on issues one and only best idea to overcome the problem is to relock the bootloader. it can be flashed using flashtool like we do for .tft files or sin files. try it out it really worked for those regreting OTA updates.
Sorry u are stuck

I can hardly undrstand your English.
did you try to flash the stock using flashtool?
shutdown your phone, and hold on volume down while connecting phone to pc.
you will see the led notification lighting in green.
flash the stock after you place it in firmware folder.

Yes i used Flashtool and the Volume button.This is no problem to flash the software but after that the software not booting it stopt when the sony logo appears.I tried to repair the phone with "fix fota bricked" but still the software don't boot into the system.After that i closed my bootloader because it was open before and with a open bootloader i am unable to use Sony Update service.With the closed bootloader i used SUS with the settings (factory default+ new Software) after copying the new software i reboot my phone and still it stop when the sony logo appears.I hope you understand my english now a little bit better
AW: [Q] Brocken Xperia Ray no booting
what happens when you replace the new display with the old original one?
If you have a recovery try flashing something from it

Use flashtool to flash everything from the same version of firmware, meaning baseband, kernel, and stock ROM.
After replacing the Display i flashed the same software "android 4.0.4" that was already on the phone for the last year. The phone worked then for 2-3 days fine.The Batterie was empty and i put it on the charger then i tried to start the phone and nothing happens i just can see the sony logo.
Story abaut the phone:
I bought it for maybe a year ago with android 2.3.4 i flashed it with android 4.0.4 then i used the kernel 4.0.3 to get root access.Then i flashed the kernel 4.0.4.I deleted Facebook etc.all the apps i didn't want to have on the phone.Then I used the phone for a year I bought a new one and my girlfriend would have my Ray so i decided to repair the display and make new software on it because she want facebook etc.
