[Help] Accidentally Corrupted Touchscreen - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi ...
i recently flashed a friends x10 mini pro with stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 with Flashtool from his 2.3.6 CM mod.... to install ICS... and now hes touchscreen is unresponsive... i noticed that i have 2 seconds to touch the screen when its a fresh reboot then it goes haywire and keyboard sliding out doesn affect anything it just remains untouchable lol although i can lock and unlock the phone
PLease help!
All help will be much appreciated!

Reflash using SEUS. This might help since it will flash using the same stock. If not just reflash a second time using flashtool, theres no harm in trying
Sent from my U20i using XDA App

tried reflashing again using flashtool but to no avail... i read somewhere that dual touch files in the phone are intefering the touch so im assuming i need to rid of that file but dnt know how when i cant touch xD

This problem has been solved .
Thank you!

would you please explain how you solved the problem? This might help other users who have the same problem as you.

Instead of flashing 2.1.A.0.6 flash the 2.1.C.0.0(found somewhere in the forums the Flashtool one [.ftf] just search and it will be back to normal!

What is the ROM or firmware the phone is on? Is the phone rooted, which baseband, and which xrecovery version if you have it? Info like that will help more people help you solve that problem.

Tell me how you are using flashtool, like, which folder are you putting generic firmware.
It should be in the firmware folder.
If you have it in the right folder. What are the error messages saying in flashtool?
Do you know how to put the phone in flash mode for flashtool?
Which version of flashtool do you have?

I always hate saying this but i think you have something wrong with your phone's hardware. Flashtool should have fixed that problem. Have you tried pc companion or seus yet?
If that doesnt, you definetly have a problem. I hate to give you bad news.

could the reboots and apps crashing caused by battery?
I myself have same issue, regards battery i read somewhere a guy had a reboot, crash problem, he bought a 2500mA bat and claimed no more issues? So i think if battery over a two year age then maybe time for new, maybe somewhere these bats cnt handle the sudden power requirements required any longer, i have 4 bats, each oldr than 3 years at least. Anyone knw a place in za that one cd purchase a stronger amperage bat? I cd imagine a hardware issue, bt then why do so many work perfectly but some kp dn this? I have rd many complaints regards this phone. If it still is crashing i wdnt exactly call it anywhere near fixed? Bt im sitting with this prob, and im baffled, bt i still think a stronger batry wd be the 1st solution.

this problem usually come when installing custom rom, so if you want update the phone, using flashtool, SEUS, flashing with wootanserver(its free) or repair with PCC 1st.
#correct if im wrong.

[HELP] Touchscreen not working-SOLUTION FOUND!!

I recently flashed a CM9 based rom on my Xperia Sola,but after flashing its touchscreen stopped working,don't know why?I tried flashing .54 ftf via flashtool,it installed perfectly but it didn't make touchscreen respond.Then i tried it repairing through SUS but to no avail.Does anybody here know what would've gone wrong because i haven't flashed any custom kernel on it(yep locked bootloader) and i don't think that a rom can damage hardware(i know 'cause i have been porting CM9 based roms on my sola and they worked perfectly without any flaw).Is it the calibration problem or something?Don't know what should i do now.....
(Don't know why i went with Sony even when i knew deep in my heart that i would regret:silly

Yes the different device ftf may cause touchscreen fault due to driver mismatching/wrong kernel,but i was using Sola's ftf so that is ruled out.Although you are right that something different is corrupting the screen 'cause Xperia Mini had the same problem that was related to some rom flashing.
Or may be,the flashtool doesn't format all the partitions of the phone and there are some hardware files still lurking somewhere in the one of the partition thats causing the problem,but its just my guess.
I thought that only wrong kernel can cause hardware failure,didn't knew that a simple rom flash can do this,so lesson learnt:silly:

Just flash the stock gingerbread via flashtool and there you go....touchscreen's functionality RESTORED.I guess i was correct about the wrong driver lurking in some partition...
Hey hva8 give the above prescribed medicine to your Sola...i'm sure it will get well soon
Didn't flash back to ICS but i guess there shouldn't be any problem now.

Hello!
I have the same problem with my Xperia Go. I flashed the wrong firmware (for Xperia sola) and then the touchscreen did not work. It's possible to use flashmode and fastbootmode and to lock and unlock the bootloader.
So i tried a lot of kernels, firmware etc. and the method above - but nothing work.
Can You help me!!

Try the method given above...i.e install gingerbread firmware via flashtool,switch on your phone...run it for sometime,the touchscreen should work at this point.If yes,you can reflash stock ICS on your phone.Thats it.You can download GB firmware for Go from HERE.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your help, but it does not work. I tried GB .62 and .84 with flashtool ver 6.x and 9.x with locked and unlocked bootloader. The touchscreen keeps black only the buttons responds (vibrate by pressing) a short time.
I think it's time for service center
Thanks

By 'touchscreen keeps black' you mean that there is no display,that there may be some hardware fault,You should take it to the sevice center.

Does the touchscreen fault occured after flashing a rom/mod or after a physical damage?
If it is related to some physical damage,the solution won't work and you have to send it to service center.

XPERIA U Touchscreen doesn't work after flash

Hello guys.
I'm new here, and i read this forum since i bought my Sony Xperia U, 2 weeks ago.
I got an ICS 4.0.4 on my xu, but i didn't like.
So i tried to get back to GB 2.3.7, by flash on flashmode.
The problem is, i downloaded the wrong GB version, for ST27i. My phone is ST25i.
The thing is, my touchscreen doesn't work anymore. I'm desperate.
I can't flash nothing again, because my usb debugging is off.
Anyone please help me!
I can't flash on flashmode. There is anyway to flash on fastboot mode, with usb debugging off? How?
Thank You!
K bro
For flashmode u dun need debugging on
Do this
Remove battery
Reinsert battery
Dun switch on
Flash xperia u ftf
Dun switch on
Flash st27 ftf (wrong one which u flashed)
Dun switch on
Flash xperia u ftf again
Swtich on now

Thank you ! Now i'm flashing my xperia u stock rom...then i'll flash the wrong, then the stock (st25i) again. Right?
I'll come back soon to make reports =)
Thank you very much again
This method didn't worked.
Can i try it again?
During the last flash, i couldn't flash the stock rom. So i removed the battery, then i got to flash it ..maybe didn't work because this?
To make things more clear.
I was with ICS 6.1.1.B.1.89
Then i tried to downgrade to GB, but with wrong ftf st27i_6.0.B.3.184. I couldn't even turn it on.
So, flashed another ftf ST25i_6.1.1.C.1.0_T-Mobile. Then my touchscreen get no response anymore.
Any idea?
Thank you.

i also experienced that problem when i had that phone. the problem is that the digitizer was destroyed. went to shop and they repaired it for almost a month coz of the limited spec. they just replace my lcd with a new one but my imei is the same. so i think they will replace it haha.
Now i'm with brand new xperia u.
Just one advice guys. PAY ATENTION on the ftfs you'll flash! Be sure it's for ST25i, or you might have serious problems =/
Thank you all for the help!

[Q] Sony sk17i mini pro bootloop. Advice please....

Hello everyone,
I have joined here hoping to get some advice, so i will be as complete with my situation as i can.
So, i rooted my phone, installed busybox, root explorer and CWM. No problems so far.
Read up on rom installations and attempted my first one. Cannot remember the rom at the moment but followed instructions as in "back up", wipe cache etc....
Now the phone is in bootloop, whereby it switches on, goes to sony erricson screen, blue light flashes and then goes blank. I cannot enter CWM, i cannot switch off until i remove battery.
I have tried both pc companion repair and seus repair but both say no software for phone(pc companion) and newest software installed(seus).
I have tried booting into safe mode the old fashioned way, but no go and finally....i have shouted obscenities at my phone but that doesn't work either.:silly:
any suggestions, or should i assume that it is bricked and send off for repair if possible?
Thank you.
Hey bro have you locked or unlocked bootloader?
Flash stock .587 firm with flashtool.
Some roms are only for locked or unlocked bootloader. You need to see that before install a rom. And remember. Not all the roms are stable.
Follow step by step. Is recomendable before install a rom. Flash stock firm.

I have no option to unlock the bootloader according to my phone info, so i will try this .587 firmware you mentioned. Could you provide a link if possible and any advice on the touchscreen.
Many thanks!!
