Plz help me out. I installed xperia mini rom in my x10 mini (by mistake) and now it is not going beyond Sony Ericsson logo.
I can't afford to loose my phone so please help me.
You're going to need to use the Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) , downloadable from the Sony Ericsson website.
Thankx bt I have already tried that. The problem I encounter is that the software doesn't recognize my phone;-(

have you tried using a flash tool and flashing the firmware?

Did you try to hold the back button while connecting your phone to SEUS?
Hi, I need help too with my bircked phone. I can not flash firmware, also did not work for me SEUS nor PC companion.
From flashtool I got this message (atteched pic).
You need to unlock your bootloader to flash new kernels. It says so in the instructions. You can tell yours is locked by having a look at VER= right before the error. When you unlock your bootloader, that R turns into r. You won't be able to flash any kernel without unlocking it first, which will void your warranty.
How to unlock the bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225
The info is all around, there's little reason to be banging against these issues...
With S1tool I cant get to flash mode, the led is red blinking. No green led.
Also before I bricked phone flashing nAa kernel I unlocked the bootloader.. But looks NOT
I already had similar problem and discovered that my issue was caused by build.prop file. When I installed a rom from other device the phone was not starting because build.prop was not correct.
I supose you had usb-debuging active so while stuck at the logo try to use a program like "ADB mask controller" to check your build.prop. If you see minmi there then it's incorrect, for X10 mini it should be robyn. Replace the file
I just want to go back to stock rom. But SEUS nor PC companion not workin for me, coz I cant get to flash mode. I cant turn on my phone, I not see SE logo too.
Flash Mode normally works, you press the back button and insert the cable without letting go of the button. But to this when the applications requests it because the phone doesn't stay in flash mode unless there is activity.
After long pressed back button (>5 min.) I get to flashmode with SEUS, but then.. failed (pic below).
From PC Companion I get error too.
The main quastion - is it possible to unbrick my phone??? I almost gave up

I had the same problem with xRecovery.
before I put the beta 2, I have made a backup with xRecovery to save my 2.1 [Eminence v1.2]
then I stucked with SE white logo, I pulled the battery out, rebooted and went back to xRecovery..
so If you didn't made any backup, use Flash Tool or reflash.. same thing, same result

The X10 is impossible to brick, that is about the only good thing with the locked bootloader that SE uses.
You should be able to resolve your problem by starting PC companion agian, and follow the instructions as you did the first time (when you pulled the cable). When inserting the USB while holding the back-key down the phone enters flash mode, this flash mode does not get overwritten when flashing the android OS, so even if the OS is corrupted the flashmode still works, and can be used to rewrite a fresh copy of android to your phone.
Its an easy fix,flash the phone on flash tool

Hi all,
I tried to put a other custom rom on my x10 but it didnt work:
First i rooted the phone, then istalled xrecovery then i booted into xrecovery and selected custom rom, now my phone booted but its stuck on the Sony Ericsson screen
Flashtool is able to root the phone but then the debugging mode error comes,
Seus cant connect with the phone because i cant boot into save mode, also flashtool cant connect with the phone if i try to flash it.
im out of ideas!
HELP!
sorry for this bump but im desperate!
First of all. Was your root successful? If yes then does your base band support the rom that you're trying to install because one gets stuck in the boot loop if the baseband is not correct for that particular rom.
Cheers!

It says the root was succesfull, but then you have to enable USB-Debugging mode but thats impossible beacause there isnt a correct rom on the phone so you cant boot and enable USB-Debugging mode.
I had the same problem 2 days ago.
I fixed it by downloading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959821 this one
Place it into flashtool, and wait till flashtool gives you the message to connect your phone in flashmode.
(im probably sure you know how to, but ill explain it anyways, remove your battery (because its stuck on the logo), wait a few seconds. put it back in. hold the back button, and connect the usb wire, untill the ledlight turns green.. fast press 'ok' on the flashtool screen, otherwise your phone will go out of flashmode)
Thanks, for the reply,
Ive contacted the Phone house, and they sended it back to SE, now SE says the phone has water damage, very wierd but still ill get it back today and then try to flash it your way
Hi every one
I'm a newbie on this forum and I have a problem with my xperia x10.
I explain, I have installed a rom on it, it worked very well but i tried on other one and the install aborted.
After this, i reboot my phone and since I am in a infinite boot loop.
The phone vibrate, the screen switch on, the sony ericsson logo appears and after that the phone reboot.
I can' access to the xrecovery menu, i tried the flash mode but it didn't work. I tried also to connect the phone to my PC but it's the same (I can't access to my phone with my PC)
I searched on the forum and on the web, I tried things but it didn't work too...

Thats exactly what i did too everytime i brick my Xrecovery.
SEUS..
I tried all those softwares (PC Companion, SEUS, FlashTool) and nothing worked...
With SEUS and FlashTool, It seems to work, but in the end, I have an error message. With FlashTool the installation aborted and with SEUS a failure.
Could it be the battery? (I can't charge my phone...)
Try and diconnect the battery for a few minutes and plug the charger in again and leave it for a few hours.
If you take the back cover off there is a small rubber cover that can be carefully takem loose and beneath that cover you see a white plug and that is the batteryconnection to the phone.
I´ve bricked mine so many times now that I just leave that rubber cover off...

No bro, he meant to use CWM or Xrecovery and use it to mount usb. there is an option if you enter mounts and storage --> mount USB storage in cwm. i am not sure about xrecovery
Please please, dont panic, if you get tension then you wont concentrate on the matter you are doing. Relax!

Hi guys, 1st u should try to clean everything, like wipe all things. then try to reboot. If u cant make it work, try to flash other ROM. if u it is still the same, the last thing u can do is, repair it using pc companion. u will get the fresh stock firmware from S.E.
p/s But make sure u read all the installation guide if u want to install custom ROM or flash a custom Kernel.
I think in case when you are stuck with the sony logo there s no need to turn on usb debugging options coz i just did get stuck like that. connected it in flash mode { the green light} and then flashed a global ftf and it worked...
I think the problem when you get stuck in the logo is because the rom was not installed correctly, happened to me once and just doing the download again and installing the rom without flashing the kernel solved the problem
HELP! after installing viper rom to my xperia ray i got stuck on sony logo =/
hey guys while I was falshing my rom of xperia x10 via flashing tool follwed the procedures given after it completed and asked me to unplug the device and switch it on... now phone dos not boots and has got stuckd at sony ericsson logo...its not moving ahead... not even booting..

Please give some info.
Have you unlocked bootloader?
What rom are you trying to flash?
When you start to flash, flashtool asks for disconnect the phone, power off and connect again with BACK button pressed. Then the process continues...
After flashing kernel you must enter to recovery and install zip file from sd-card.
Regards.
I was tryng to flash rom 3.0.1.G.0.75 on Gingerbread 2.3.3 and ya I was supposed to enter downloading mode but before I do dat phone has stuckd on... gets on wid sony ericsson logo evn if I dnt swtch on...help me..
Please, can you provide the followed procedure ?
Maybe this thread can help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226826&highlight=lock+bootloader+again
Which log do you use, PC Companion, SEUS, Flashtool...?
Do you have a CWM recovery ?
If you don't know how (or are afraid) to use flashtool...
You can do that :
1/ Launch SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) HERE
or PC Compagnion HERE
2/ Turn off your phone, remove the battery over 5 seconds, replace it.
3/ Hold the right button (the one with the arrow) and plug your phone on your computer with usb (It calls flashmode)
4/ The green led must be light on and SEUS or PCC recognize your phone...
5/ Now you just have to follow the instructions to install a stock rom.
If it doesn't help, you can use flashtool... A great tuto HERE Thanx to Crowds
With it you can unlocked the bootloader and install a new kernel with CWM recovery inside...
Install a new rom, root your phone... ans so more stuffs...
I hope it helps...
I've been told to install x recovery on the computer,take out battery n unplug the phone .Then have flash base band on computer(it will then show that its trying to download)connect phone in flash mode.to do this hold down the bottom right hand button(the back arrow)on your phone then put battery back in(KEEP HOLDING back arrow button)and plug the cable back into your phone.I hope this helps.GOOD LUCK BUDDY!

My phone is just sitting there with the words "Sony Ericsson" flashing on and off, I fear that my phone is bricked but im not 100% sure, if there is anything that can be done please help!!!
Can you explain more what you're doing ?
Do you did that :
Launch Pc Compagnion
Plug the phone
Mount the sd card
EDIT : Sorry i read too fast your post... Your phone can't turn on you're stuck on the bootlogo of SONY ERICSSON...
Do you plug the phone in flashmode ?

Some of the custom roms are flashed with xrecovery or cwm,
Now what kind of rom did you want to flash?
Maybe you went wrong that in procedures said "flash the rom".
Put out the battery then put in and turn your device on then restore your previous rom then try again and install(flash) new rom.
Good luck.
