Hello guys,
I recently tried to root and unlock my x10 using the tutorials posted here , the rooting part went okay however I must have messed something up when I tried to unlock the bootloader as right now, flashtool 0.6.7 won't let me flash anything at all , and keeps on throwing " ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN " at me . Tried with several versions of flashtool, tried S1tool to no avail.
Now I'm stuck with a phone that will not boot at all (only vibrates then goes dead).
Your help and suggestions would be really appreciated as I don't wanna give up on it just yet and take it to a service center (out of warranty so I'm gonna have to pay for it myself).
Could you provide some more information?
Which Rom/version of android were you running?
Which method of unlocking the bootloader did you follow?
Did you try repairing the phone with Sony Ericsson PC companion software?
Try flashing the Stock kernel.
As far as i can tell its nothing you won't be able to fix by yourself (with help from here of course ).
Originally I was running stock 2.3.3 , tried rooting using the method posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087 ; everything went fine during the kernel downgrade process , I ran the SETOOL2.bat script which completed successfully however when I got to the kernel upgrade part , flashtool stopped working. Phone is recognized by PC as a "SEMC Flash device" and the green led lights up but as I said in the first post - won't flash my X10. Tried with both Windows and Linux versions, both give me the same error
I also tried fixing it through SEUS and PC Companion , none of them work, keep on saying my phone already has the latest version installed
Suggestions guys ?
Try repair it this method.. Open sony ericsson pc companion and click on support zone.. Then click on repair phone.. Have you tried this?

yes , i tried repairing through PC Companion , tried updating through SEUS , both keep on telling me I'm running the latest version. I ended up taking my phone to a repair shop, after I'll pick it up I'm gonna ask the guys there what they did to fix it so I can share it with you.
Wish I had seen this sooner
I was getting into all sorts of trouble when I was rooting my phone, had at least 2 instances where I though I had bricked it (which would not be good!). And your post sounds similar to what I was getting at 1.30am last Thursday!
What I did, and what I recommend is to download one of the stock roms and flash that through the flashtool. Keep the stock rom close by, if anything else happens then it is your safe place.
Once you've flashed with the stock rom. Re-read the flashing instructions carefully and try again.
Here's the Stock ROM I used:

Thanks for your reply , I tried flashing a stock rom through flashtool 0.6.7 , it didn't work as i was getting the same annoying error. I must admit that it wasn't the same exact rom that you used.
After I get my phone back from the service center I'm gonna try to unlock the bootloader again.
Now I'm curious if your method would have worked
Error - err_severity=
Hello, I have a bricked X10i phone which gave me following error when I tried to flash is using flash tool.
ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
It does get detected with a green blink but I only get a black screen on the phone. I will appreciate any help.

Hi Aliyaan!!! I had the same problem a couple weeks ago.
Just follow carefully everysingle step of this guide (it's pretty easy), and everything will get back to normal =)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20251565&postcount=8
same thing happens to my x10i.. I have red many forums on this topic but it doesnt show a solution...
I think it is a bricked phone already.. need to send it for repair
Why don't you try with latest flash tool 0.8.5 or above.
1. Flash stock 2.3.3.
2. There is a menu in flash tool to root.
3. There is a menu under plugin to unlock bootloader.
Stock rom can flash always. X10 can't be bricked so easily.
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
Since you r already on stock 2.3.3, there is no need to downgrade your baseband.. you need baseband .71 for gingerbread ROMs and the stock ROM is already on it... use SEUS to unroot and flash the stock ROM.. once you r on complete stock try rooting and unlocking using flashtool .9 or the latest version... also install the drivers from the flashtool folder...

Hello
I've installed the [ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.9 following this steps
i've previously installed a CWM
restart in recovery
wiped data/reset factory
wiped battery
wiped all ...
install Rom
install gapp
and now my phone doesn't goes to recovery and all i get is a black screen whit "Sony Ericsson" legend
please some help.
i post here, because i haven't permissions to post in the developer forum asking for help in the thread
sorry about my bad english
Did you unlock your bootloader using Flashtool?
You also need the latest version of nAa kernel installed.
Thanks for the answer
I didn't unlock my bootloader using Flashtool i haven't do that before and didn't read the installing instructions for doing that my fault
and didn't installed nAa kernel, because i think didn't need to install the kernel obligatorily
is anything i can do to solve this problem ??
You do need the nAa kernel to run MiniCM7, it just won't work without it. Next time you think about installing a rom, make sure you read all the instructions first. Especially if you're using custom kernels as that's a good way to give your phone a real hard brick.
What you've got is a soft brick. The phone still works, it just doesn't work as a phone. A hard brick is when your phone doesn't do anything at all. Which is bad.
All you need to do is download and use Sony Ericsson Update Service. This updates your phone to the latest, official firmware. If it complains that you already have it, choose the option to reinstall it anyway.
This will wipe all the data on your phone, but not your sdcard, so you'll lose your contacts, sms's, etc but you backed up anyway, didn't you?
thanks Ticklefish for the answer
i did that and now i've my phone back =D
Mine wont do that :-/
When i follow your steps Ticklefish i cant connect to the phone. it pops up with a message that tells me to pull down the status line which i cant because i only gets to the Sony Ericsson boot logo.
Got any tips for me?
thanks in advance

I tried to flash a new kernel from Flashtool.
First time i did that i went perfect!
I wanted to try another ROM which needed another kernel, and now i'm not able to do anything!
This is what Flashtool reports:

Can anyone help? or do I have to buy a new cellphone
Sorry for my poor english!
What happened when you tried SEUS?
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
SEUS tells me that the cellphone has the newest software.
When I start the cellphone it never goes further than to the "Sony Ericsson" startscreen. When i try to enter CW recovery it gives me a strange looking screen with green colors. How can I restore CW recovery and how can I install a kernel again?
Try flash stock rom by Seus, you can do it even if SEUS show you that you already have the newest software, and than root, install recovery, instal GB rom and than flash kernel
And remember to unlock bootloader before flash kernel!
Which kernels and rom did u flashed?

hi, i was flashing the same kernel onto my sisters x10 mini pro and when i went to flash i got the error before it allowed me to flash the kernel, i used PC companion to repair, located in the software update section once i did that, i just unlocked the bootloader and root. hope this helps you.
I have triede with pc companion, it will not let me update, and it is not possible for me to put the phone into USB debugging, because the phone do not startup. I realy hoped that someone other than me has had this error before. But when I google the error, it doesn't come up with much.

I guess there's nothing to do then. I hoped there was some one other than me who had experienced the same as I did. Can anyone tell me if there is other things to try before I throw it into the graveyard.

Hello, I just recovered a friend's phone from this problem. Nothing worked before but I found the solution, at least for me.
First I want to tell what I tried:
Flashing with PC Suite
Flashing with PC Companion
Flashing with FlashTool
Flashing with SETool Box 2
Nothing worked. Mainly because the dumbass of my friend tried to update latest version while it failed (don't know if battery problem, cable or whatever).
The problem is that it just hanged in "Sony Ericsson" screen and not recovery possible.
And when flashing I got:
ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
=== Now how I solved it ===
What I did is download the u20i1.6 binary fron XDA developers. It said it's a zip but it's just a RAR.
I had to uncompress it in a folder. And create a bundle with FlashTool with those files. I will try to upload this.
Then I flashed it. It worked without the error.
-------------------
- At the time of writing this. I upgraded the phone with the PC Companion but
- after updating the phone just got hanged again. It just flash red light when
- swithing on. I don't know why. Have to see.
- Update: Was not hanged I just had to force off (long press on the power button) and then on. The PC Companion finished updating.
- Update: Flashed last version and now SETool Box2 is not able to unlock. Better to stay on 2.X.

Hello guys, i had finally made up my mind to root my xperia neo V, i learnt that i have to "Downgrade to 0.42" version and then root my phone, so i downloaded .42 firmware and latest version of Flashtool i.e 0.9.1.0 , i did all steps correclty, checked all checkboxes correctly, at 13% that flashing is simply stuck, no messages nothing,
so i tried with another version of Flashtool, i,e 0.6.8.0, but that also went in Vain, same stuck at 13%, this is the log,
it gets stuck at system.sin,
i tried checking, 'Exclude System' and then flashed, then it gets flashed upto 100%, but while booting phone is stuck @ 'Sony Logo',
another thing i want to tell is, "Already when i bought this phone it had .62 version installed in it, no .42" , it this the reason for not successful flashing?
my phone is completely dead guys, please help me ASAP, pleading you all, please. i have also posted in talksonymobile.com, please somebody help me, please guys

First of all just make sure that you have installed the drivers for your device.. If not then go to C:Flashtool/drivers
Then, as you said you checked all checkboxes.. You don't need to do that!
Just check on the following, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe apps log..
Trust me I have flashed firmware like 100 times using this method and it has worked correctly!
Do as I said!
All the best!

maybe the file is corrupted
did u download it by download accelerators ?
if it was .zip or .rar try repair option in winrar
u dont need to downgrade to .42 to root it you cant root .62 it by flashing attachment via cwm
download .62 and flash that and root it with the attachment

Try downloading the files again, it may be corrupted a download. You may try using a different computer. You can also try flashing an ICS image.
If you still have locked bootloader you can use SUS or PC Companion to try repairing your phone.
There is another option called WotanServer but it is not free, it will cost you about 2 EUR.
PCCompanion (Or SEUS) will always fix your phone as long as you have not unlocked bootloader.
It will restore your phone to the latest "Out of the box" official firmware.
Google and download and follow the instructions.
If it says your phone already has the latest software click on "repair phone".
Remember, if you have NOT unlocked the bootloader yet you CANNOT break the phone permantly....PCCompanion will always restore it.

OK, Download flashtool and use that to root and install a recovery. You can also unlock the bootloader (If you want).
Then you will be able to install any ROM you want.
As for usb otg, read it up in the theme and app section.

Hi,
I am a newbie so i hope i am following policies of this Forum.
Problem Statement ::crying:
I am not able to repair my xperia mini as i used to do earlier using my PC Companion
What is that i did which caused this ? :silly:
I usually keep trying new things in my phone so, I did..
Unlocked My BOOT Loader from SE Site
rooted my mobile, Installed CM 10
was not happy with some features, so wanted to go back to stock rom
some how flashed stock rom using flash tool, re locked boot loader using sdk
What I tried to repair from PC Companion ? :fingers-crossed:
Changed laptops where PC Companion was installed
re-installed PC Companion
tried with SONY UPDATE SERVICE
So can some one Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Help me in making any fixes ( like kernel or file changes), so that pc companion recognizes as my correct software and repair it and make my software brand new....
Hmmm... maybe a suggestion. I first install the unbranded version with flashtool and with Sony Update Service I repair the phone. Usually it works.

Hey man you are not supposed to use android sdk to relock your bootloader. There is a relocking ftf which has to be flashed. First flash stock ics, then flash the relocking ftf and reflash the stock ics rom
Then you will be able to update via SEUS or PC COMPANION.

It seems your phone did not re-locked bootloader sucessful. To make sure that your phone is LOCKED after re-locked, you should press the secret series to check the bootloaded status.
Just follow this.

MAn you made a huge error by using pcc, after unlocking your bootloader , sony tells you that do not use pcc and seus or ota updates as they may harm your device, even i do not know how pcc recognized your device, and with custom roms it is even harder to solve, however please can you tell me if cm10 is smooth enough?? anyway here is the solutiuon:1)if you have cwm try flashing a custom rom if a custom rom is available on your sd card or try formating your device. 2) flash the official ics .587 by using the flashtool :http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/38251 , if the drivers are not available for you to use the flashtool , go to help in the flashtool and hit drivers, and to let your device boot in flashmode ( your device should be off, a green light from your LED light should appear after booting to the flashmode) please hold the volume down button while connecting your device to the usb, to flash the ftf of .587 please click on the first button on the left and choose flashmode, then choose the ftf and flash it P.S: I am a newbie but not a noob, I helped a lot of people on sony forums and on gsmarena and other forums, if I helped you please hit thanks

Be sure that you choose the .587 not the .431 from uliwooly's links and if the flashtool shows you errors please try using the flashtool64 ( available in the flashtool folder), you have also another choice, download a new custom rom, use the flashtool in fast boot mode ( hold the volume up button while connecting to the USB connection) and flash the new custom rom , then try flashing the stock rom by flashtool if it doesn't flash it well on your current rom
Hi!
Its my first topic on this forum so i wanted to say welcome to everybody in first place. I would like to mention that my X10i is my first android phone so im completely new with that things.
Stock soft from sony doesnt fitted me i decided to change it. First i managed to root, install xrecovery and all that stuff with a huge help of guides on this forum. Tested some custom roms and finally i saw a jellybean. I thought: I want it! So i tried to follow instruction mentioned in topic (jellybean kickass edition). Occurred problem while flashing cm10, read to try flashing cm9 first - same. Recovered to stock 2.3.3 with xrecovery and tried to flash again. And here I am. I cant get into xrecovery now, just stuck on se logo and even my pc dont recognize x10 when it in flash mode.
Is there any way to fix that? Plis help because phone is out of guaranty.
Edit: Fortunately i manage to restore soft with PCC so topic is for close/del.

Yeap, PCC helped but when my phone had not been recognise by PC when it was in Flash Mode i paniced and wrote on forum. Then i rebooted my PC and there was no trouble with recovery.
Taking the opportunity i would like to ask some more q.
1. I want to install CM10 on my x10 but i encountered some trouble. Do i need unlocked boot loader to to this? I've tried FT bootunlocer but i dont know is it was successfully or not. How to check it? Currently im running on cm7 and stock kernel rooted of course.
Thanks

You need unlocked boot loader, you can verify with s1 tool if your boot loader as been unlocked
