[Q] [PROBLEM] Can´t flash ROM to U20a - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello,
I have been trying to flash the rom in the following link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333234 without luck.
I have a u20a, but reflashed the firmware the develloper put at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19070393&postcount=13.
I have been trying everything, with the hotfixes, without them, with and without the modules without any success through CWM.
I flashed the ultra lite or the full version in several times, the I just rebooted the phone from CWM after Factory-reseting it. And it goes to the ICS boot animation but then gets stucked.
I took out the battery believing that It had to happen like that (as in the first post of the rom where he says that there will be a bootloop), went to CWM, flashed the Hotfix 1, then the modules (even I have tried it first the modules, then the hotfix 1), factory reseted it and rebooted it. Then again, stucked at the boot animation...
HELP!!

Try downloading the files again, sometimes they can corrupt on download. Its happened a few times to me in the past.
Also, the first boot may take some time.

Device stuck at boot screen after flashing VillainROM

Hi all,
Today I wiped all data and cache from my device and installed VillainROM from CWM Recovery Manager. Install looked fine it said that it finished, so I went to reboot.
The device was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S II logo with the yellow triangle (!) for around 10 minutes. I then turned it off cause I realized it wasn't going to boot.
Anyone have any idea why this happened? I restored a backup of my previous ROM and my phone booted up real fast and it was fine.
Could just be a bad download?

Try flash it again before it boots. IE: Flash from zip, then go back and falsh from zip again.
I've had to do that with CM...
OK will try that, cause the same thing happened to me when I installed Cyanogenmod straight from Rom Manager. Thx
Update: No go, I also made sure Deluxe Settings was uninstalled before I went into recovery. It's stuck at the boot screen.
However, upgrading my previous ROM (WanamLite v4.0) to WanamLite 5.2 worked fine and the device booted. It was exactly the same procedure in recovery mode but a different ZIP file.
Will try another ROM like LiteningRom and see if anything changes. I don't think it's a CRC error because I open up the files before I copy to the device to see if WinRAR pops any CRC errors.
I'd start on the thread a few up from yours.... the one that mentions if you have a boot loop
Sorry, I didn't realize it was a boot loop because it wasn't actually looping, just stuck on the image. Is that considered a boot loop?

Phone stuck at boot logo with various cm9 roms

Hello.
After running for months cm7 old baseband with no prob, today i decided to try cm9.
So i grabbed my copy of Arjen cm9, latest nightly, gapps, installed it. Then upgraded to new baseband 20G using LGMDP.
The phone booted, all fine, but there was no network. So i tryed reinstalling the new baseband, same story. The third time i reinstalled the new baseband, phone booted with stock lg gingerbread. So i reinstalled arjen cm9, but phone remained stuck at boot animation at the firts rebooot before installing google aps.
Then i decided to restart the process once again and redoing root, recovery etc. These are the step i took:
1) used KDV to reinstall lg stock ginger with 20G baseband.
2)rooted from gingerbread, installed rom manager, installed CWM.
3) reboot in CWM, wiped all, formatted with ext size 256mb and swap size 64mb.
4) copied rom and gapps, wiped everything another time.
5) installed arjen cm9, re booted, again stuck at boot animation.
6) re formatted, re wiped, tryed another rom ([2012.6.5] MIUI PORT by DHK).
7)rebooted, again stuck at boot animation.
No matter how many time i reboot or how many CM9 version i try, after the new baseband upgrade only the lg stock gingerbread seems to boot without remain stuck at boot animation.
Please help me with this new baseband/ cm9 thing, because i seem the only one that doesn't get it!
EDIT: now after 30 min stuck at miui boot animation, i rebooted the phone and this time it started the cm9 logo, then an icon of battery charging appeared in at the center of the screen and then phone dead! What the hell is happening guys? This is driving me mad, lost the the entire morning and until now trying to get this working.

[Q] CM7 Bootloop

Well, this is what happened.
My phone was using cMiui 4.1.2 with the default kernel, and this morning I tried to flash CM7. I wiped everything as always before flashing, after I pushed reboot system and it got stuck in the "Galaxy s2" screen and keeps turning on and off endlessly.
I pulled out the battery, try to get back into recovery, but it hadn't been a successful attempt.
I stayed claim and flash back to stock 4.0.4 via Odin, god-bless I made it through.
I installed a custom kernel and flash to CM9 for temporarily use. Now I don't know what to do.
I really want to try the taste of CM7, please help.
Edit: I also tried various way of flashing, such as flash a codeworkx kernel before flashing, and flash back into GB 2.3.5 before flashing CM7, both didn't work out
it was making me crazy for weeks and here is the solution i found 5 minutes ago :
when it gets bootloop
go to download mod and flash siyah 2.6.14 via odin!
then it boots.

[Q] SGT-P7500 3G Doesn't boot anymore -err:0x4

This morning as took my tablet the screen did not switch on, i tried to reboot then it stuck on bootanimation, then i tried to wipe; it still stuck on
bootanimation. Next I tried a complete wipe and installed a new Rom --> same Problem only goes to the bootanimation.
Then I tried to flash with odin, it tells me "complete write operation failed" and err:0x4. Nvflash isn't working too. So what can I do. I was on CM 10.1 nightly before, and evertything worked very well till this morning. I still can go to Download mode but twrp is not working anymore.
Thanks in advance in sorry about my poor english.
Regards.

@dvb127 This morning the same happend to my Tablet. Could you find a way to fix it?
I have been running a CM-Version of january and switched to nightlies a couple of days ago. I can't remember anything else I changed
What I tried: flashed a new version of CWM (6.0.3.2) via ODIN and installed the january & newest CM via CWM. Both worked fine.
Still the same problem. When I boot the tablet it reboots several times and gets stuck in the CM bootanimation. Factoryreset and wiping /data causes a reboot.

[Q] I9100T Odin flash OK, Download and recovery OK, stuck at logo!

Hi folks, mid last week I woke up to a non responsive Galaxy S2. It's been happily running stock Vodafone ICS for over a year, and somehow spontaneously went soft brick on me. Gets stuck at logo screen or goes into boot loop.
Download mode is accessible. I can flash through Odin (1.85 and 3.09) and it reports success. I have successfully put CWM (various versions) on it can can boot into them fine.
Recovery mode is also accessible and appears to be working fine. I can access external SD card no problem.
Attempting to flash through zip from external SD aborts with Mode 7, reporting bad zip or unable to read source file. I have tried removing asserts from install script (educated myself to the risks and made sure the ROM was correct!!) and multiple versions of CM (10.1.3 stable, 10.2 nightly) and multiple versions of CWM recovery (6.0.2.9 is what I've been using mostly, as recommended by CM guide)
Tried running GS2ROMNukeV2.12.zip which reported successful wipe, then attempted zip install from SD with same result (aborted mode 7). Repeated wipe and attempted stock (I9100TDVLSK_I9100THUTLSD_I9100TDVLS3_HOME.tar) from flash through Odin. Reported success, phone booted into recover and applied KOR CSC successfully, then reboot and still stuck at logo screen/boot loop.
I have attempted the fix in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449771 as best I could wish the resources I could find, but it's hard to follow to the letter with the links broken!!!
I have not tried repartition with PIT as I'm not sure where to get an appropriate PIT file. Advice on this appreciated!
I want to make this clear because people seem to not want to believe it: I did not soft brick my phone flashing it. My best theory at this point is some kind of memory corruption or hardware failure that's causing a boot loop. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. This week I will probably take it in to a repair shop and hope for the best, but tomorrow is a public holiday and I've got nothing to lose by trying any more suggestions.
