I assume you are using flashtool to do it which shows you that message?
1st thing 1st, your phone can still go into fastboot mode? (turn of your phone, wait couple of seconds, then turn on while holding volume up button. When in fastboot, LED will show blue colored)
If yes, then flash using fasboot a custom kernel that comes with cwm (plenty to choose. Rage, krsh, nerodroid, xkernel etc ). How to? Plenty in dev section. Included instruction to do so on the first page of the thread for that kernel.
Once done, turn off or reboot and go into cwm.
Flash ROM (custom or stock. Your choice).
Reboot.
Your bootloder need to be unlocked to flash custom kernel. If you dont want to unlock it, then flash stock kernel. See if can go through.
If your phone cant even go into fastboot, cannot turn on AT ALL, that should be hardware problem. Bring it to service centre or any repair shop.
Good luck.

If your bootloader is lockt you can use SEUS to fix the software on your device.I had this same problem and this was the resolution.
If you have unlocked your phone, you should relock it first, and then follow piotrasss87 method. otherwise you can use SEUS or flashtool to flash back. I think you should check your usb driver and try another ftf.

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 friends,
I think I have bricked my X10i B'cuz the phone is struck at the Sony Ericsson logo.
What I tried to do?
I was in tripndoid MIUI, so I wanted to upgrade the rom to black edition, so I tried to unlock the boot-loader, I had successfully downgraded the firmware and unlocked the boot-loader and also updated to custom kernel (doomloard)
After that I got in CWM recovery mode and installed the .zip file after cleaning the system cache and dalviks cache, Now the phone refuses to start nor get into flash mode.
I tried removing the battery and reinstalling the battery, but as soon as I put the battery back on the phone lights up at the Sony logo.
Even If it try to charge the phone from the electrical socket, the led of the phone does not turn on, it still gets into the Sony logo and stops there.
The phone gets recognized in the flash tool, its tells the phone is in ADB mode. I cannot put the phone on flash mode anymore.
I tried looking in various threads, but could not get a concrete answer, please help. I have limited access to internet, So i do not have PC companion to try and repair my phone. Is there any way that I can get back my phone alive.
Edit: I just plugged it in, I can get into flash mode.. Anyone please help me how can I flash back to any rom..
Did you flash the upgrade firmware after downgrading and unlocking firmware? Sometimes the Kernel doesn't support certain ROMs as well and it can't boot into the system.
The easy method of flashing the stock SE firmware is by using the X10 Flashtool. Simply download and install it (you might have to turn off anti-virus software as it's listed as a virus of some kind) and install the stock SE 2.3.3 firmware and press flash. Instructions will pop up and your phone will be as good as new. It does mean that you lose everything like ck, recovery, unlocked bootloader, etc.
You can find the Flashtool and the stock firmwares here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
EDIT: To do flashing, you will have to turn the phone off. The X10 may turn on when you reinsert the battery too soon, like you have described. Generally, you should take the battery out for about 5 seconds before reinserting it so the phone actually turns off and doesn't turn back on.
Good luck and don't forget to hit thanks if this helped in some way
@ Panzerfaust101 - I have already hit thanks
I figured it out myself.. here is how I made it through..
Problem - was in the Kernel, just out of some instinct I downloaded Doom's kernel v.006 and some how got the phone into flash mode and flashed the kernel.
After that I was able to navigate into recovery and install the new ROM, but my problem did not stop. Now the phone got struck in the new RoM's startup screen.
So again I downloaded the right version of Doom's kernel for the RoM and flashed it again. So I got the problem solved, but I realized the phone radio was not working, So I again downgraded the firmware and ran the bootunlocker and then updated the phone back to the right kernel.
Now I am able to enjoy the new ROM.
Yeah, it should be your ck. I flashed a ck before (can't remember which one), but for one reason or another, I couldn't get cwm-based recovery working, so I tried another one which couldn't boot anything up properly, so I'm back on stock 2.3.3 (was on the MIUI-based BlackHD Edition. Brilliant ROM btw) waiting for beta+ CM9 ROM for X10 to be released
Btw, for future reference, can you link me the exact Doom ck that you used? I'm probably going to install a custom ROM on mine again and I need to know one that will be guaranteed to work without a problem. Thanks
Cool, you will need Doom's kernal - X10_FXP_DooMKernel-v05a-BootManager-v1.3
Also hope you have the bootlocker unlocked, if not you need to use X10_aZuZu_Kernel_Downgrade_Generic firmware and unlock the boot loader after that you can directly upgrade the firmware to Doom's kernel and install the RoM.
Thanks to DooM and aZuZu for the files.

i've your same problem...how i can plug-in in flash mode?
Try this trick!!!
Remove the battery.
Connect your phone to system with the battery still out.
Now hold the back button and put the battery on, green led will glow.
Now you are on flash mode and this would stay for not more than 5-10 secs
You should have quick fingers, so that you should select the firmware or any update within those ten sec's. Keep trying this will work... BTW its was the only way I could revive my phone.
but pc don't recognize my x10...

Is that the method you use to flashing? I've seen it quite a lot on these forums, but I haven't personally used it before and I've been curious as to what they did. Generally, don't you prepare to flash by pressing the flash button on Flashtool and following the instructions that pop up? i.e. disconnect and turn off phone, hold back button, reconnect phone. I've always used this method for flashing. Doesn't it work properly for some devices?
Also, if the battery's out and the flashing takes 10+ seconds, what happens? does it stay on once it's detected a device flashing the firmware?

The ten seconds isnt a standard just a rough idea. Yeah the flashtool way is proper way to enter flashmode it just that the USB socket on this model isn't the best, many people had problems and basically just found their own way around it.

Pleeease, I need help.
My x10 enters in flash mode with the green led, but it still only 10 seconds on, after that change to SE logo and that's it...I think that it's because it ran out of battery...any solution for this!?!?
After that I can leave it connected by USB but still being with the SE logo and it doesn't seem that the battery is charging.
Even if I take off the battery, put in again and simply connect it by USB the SE logo shows again...I don't know what else to do...

Kind of a late reply, apologies for that. Yes I followed the same method as listed. Some times your method works but not always!!!
If the battery is below 5% i believe the system will not get you into the flash mode. Since flashing hardly takes few seconds, I suppose the available battery will hold on.
BTW my trick starts only after I get into the flash tool

I don't think its cuz of a battery issue, It cuz of kernel issue. Kindly give a backdrop of what you are trying to do? Might be helpful to correlate the actions.

Yes mate I tried the same tool that you have posted. Yeas I did upgrade the firmware to custom kernel and then went ahead with the installation.
Try this link : http://www.mediafire.com/?3ol6gpykaa5acwo
Thank 7hr08ik for this link. Please use the FXp kernal, not DooM.
Major update is that DooM kernel version that I had installed was completely a phone crasher, So I had to update the kernal and the RoM for a newer version.
Right now I am using FXP kernal with v3 of the blackedition HD v1.3 RoM, So far So good

i have never bricked my phone before so i cant really tell.
but i have read many times if people ask question like 'help my phone bricked'.
i see most people will respond 'use SEUS'. im not sure but look it up
oh on second thought;
70% your phone is not actually bricked.
you might have to wait a little while like 3-5 minutes minimum usually after you flash a custom rom.
at least thats my experience the time when i used to flash a lot of different custom roms back when im on lg optimus one a years ago.
so, be patience? and wait like 5 minutes.
because theres on time i flash a custom rom on my old lg optimus one, for the first time i flash custom rom, then i reboot my phone, it takes a while than usual and i thought my phone bricked. but then leave my phone until 10 minutes or so my phone boot like normal.

You haven't bricked your phone actually... All you have done is ****ed up somewhere between Rom installation and Rom boot. All you need to do is read carefully the instructions the Rom Developer gives you and you will manage to fix it. If you had bricked it it wouldnt even go to bootloader mode.
If you get frustrated and think you cant fix it, just press vol- while connecting the phone with the USB cable to get into Recovery mode, then flash the stock .ftf file that you can find in the forums along with the flashtool, to restore your Mini Pro to stock goodness.
You need to flash the appropriate kernel for that ROM.

my phone bootloader still lock i think..i check it using S1 Tool and it shows as below:
RUNNING S1_EROM VER "R9A028"
SOFTWARE AID: 0001
LOADER AID: 0001
FLASH ID: "002C/00B3"
LOADER VERSION: "R4A069"
the "RUNNING S1_EROM VER" should be like this "r9A028" isn't? so this mean i never unlocked it from the beginning. could be this is the problem? the Hybrom custom rom required unlocked bootloader but mine doesn't..
Have you tried Wotanserver? That's all I could use when SEUS wouldn't do anything. Once it could start up I used CWM to recover everything.

Hi
Don't append to this thread if you want some attention IMHO, open a new topic for your problem.
Here's the scenario, 3 weeks ago, I broke the lcd of my ray. It was rooted and everything. So i sent it to a technician last week, got it repaired. But the problem is, they reprogrammed it, installed a stock rom or something. Now, when it boots up, it goes into a black screen, only the status bar on top is visible, then it reboots.
I also found out using Flashtool that my phone isn't rooted anymore. I can't access CWM anymore, and to make matters worse, the USB debugging is off, making me unable to re-root it. The technician asked me if I would want to get the motherboard replaced but I said no since it will cost me even more money.
Now, is there a way for me to turn the USB debugging of remotely on flashboot or fastboot? Or atleast root it without turning the USB debugging on?
Have you tried flashing the stock rom again or repairing with PC Companion or Sony Update Service?
You can root if you unlock your bootloader and flash a custom prerooted kernel

Thank you for your reply, I am unable to flash any rom because CWM is gone.. I can't flash a custom kernel because it's not in USB Debugging mode..
AW: [Q] USB Debugging remotely on XRay
You're holding it wrong I guess.
1. You should be able to reflash stock rom with flashtool, because flashmode should work. Shutdown phone, wait 15 seconds and hold volume down. While holding connect your phone ot PC. Now reflash the stock ftf
2. Normally (on unlocked bootloader) you should be able to flash a custom kernel even if usb debugging is disabled :good:

ohh, i just tried reflashing stock rom, but i'm stuck in a bootloop.. though around twice, it got to the lockscreen, then restart again..
I just tried flashing a custom kernel but it said that it needed to be rooted first
EDIT:
I was able to reach the menu part (i have no idea why it doesn't restart sometimes) and be able to set it up for rooting.. But once i start rooting it, it just restart and the bootloop continues..
Anyone?. I've been flashing stock roms from gb to ics but I still can't make it to the launcher.. There was one instance though when the apps were updating (just like when you flash gapps), it finished updating but right after that, it restarted and went back on a boot.. also, only the status bar is shown when it reaches homescreen, then crashes..

Hi Bro, Try This Method:
1. Flash The 2.1 Stock ROM From SEUS.
2. After You Flash 2.1, Verify Your Phone If Its Rooted Or Not.
If have superuser app at menu, it means Your Phone is Rooted.(Proceed To Step 3)
if There Is No superuser App to your phone, it means you need to Root Your phone And Unlock the bootloader again
3. Install xRecovery to your phone
4. after That, Backup Your Personal files(Apk,sms,contact etc)
5. Backup Via xRecovery
6. Flash nAa-14 kernel then boot to recovery mode Then Flash MiniCM7 2.2.2 or Other GB Rom
