Hello,
I do not wish to annoy anyone. I seek some help. Before posting and mostly before doing anything with my phone I read all information I could find.
Unlocking bootloader (hardware and official way), rooting, the autoinstaller for CWM. The flashtool, the wotan server, SEUS.
Yesterday I've upgraded my firmware via PC Companion to .62. However this unrooted my phone and I wanted to go back to the old firmware so
I flashed it with WotanServer
After this my phone didnt start and after the SE logo a sign with excalmation mark and phone appeared.
Please, help me. Tell me what should be my next step. Can i fix it myself? Should i pay to someone in the local shop with neon advertisment to fix it?
Please.
Anton.
Download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Software), and repair your phone with it.
I got same problem with WotanServer, SEUS solved it.
@tomassz82,
can you point me to a working link. All links that I have for SEUS redirect me to a sony support page?
I also forgot to mention that I have done a backup via CWM but I don't know how to restore it as I can't go into CWM anymore.
Ok. Fixed. Thank you tomassz82 for the hope
For future reference: SEUS is an outdated piece of software.
Sony Ericcson PC Companion is its successor.
Intially PC companion fails to recognize the device because it's not turned on completely (by completely i mean booted to the Android).
I restarted my computer. When I connect the phone and start PC Companion somehow, seemingly at random it still doesn't allow to update but it will recognize it once or twice and offer repair. Do it!
Wipe personal settings bla bla..
I could not manage to repair the phone with PCC, but SEUS worked like a charm.
@tomassz82
Which verions of SEUS are you running and where did you downloaded from?

The thing is.... I have a X10 mini pro (Android 2.1), and I was trying to install Gingerbread Theme on it (Following this steps: aliwaqas.info/install-android-2-3-gingerbread-on-xperia-x10-mini-pro/) I did everything on the right order. But now it doesn't stop rebooting and rebooting and rebooting , please tell me how fix it!!! (like "for dummies" steps). I'll be so grateful
Thanks!
I'm new on this things.................... you realized on that already
your mini is bricked like mine 3 weeks ago. I try to flash it with flasher by bin4ry and using a nordic firmware and it seemed to work.
Then I have other issues I took it to the service center
I used PC Companion to reinstall the system. At first the pc did not recognized the mini (cause it was rebooting), but in the manual says that with a 50% it would work anyway, so it was easy, but I lost all my information, but it was a risk.
Thank you for the help.
my step, just repair it with PC Companion first
run the PC Companion, choose update, it will show repair option
it will download the necessary data. wait for it, it will then show you how to set your device so it can be flashed by the application.
HY i have a problem and i hope that you guys help me. y want to repair my phone via SEUS and it say that i have the latest software and there is no repair buton..i cannot use flash tool it won´t start on my pc.is there another metod to flash a firmware like a windows ms-dos filelike .bat? srry for my english
Hi,
this may solve your problem.
try to install Sony Ericsson PC Companion. If i ever need to repair without flashtool for some reason, it tells me that i have the latest software available but the repair option is still available.
heres a link for you:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...oads/subject/pccompanion/1.689743?cc=gb&lc=en
p.s. im pretty sure this has been asked before...
You can also flash to an older firmware than what you currently have on the device then use SEUS to repair.
I have managed to brick my X10 mini pro by trying to instal CWM Recovery, and now am stuck at SE logo screen.
So far i've tried:
1. Seus - it says my x10 mini pro is up to date and no update available
2. PC Companion - i tried the repair option, but in the end it doesn't let me repair
3. FlashTool - tryed flashing original kernel, new kernel, 1.6android kernel.... and after flashing it keeps getting me to reboot it, and activate debugging mode, which i can't because i'm still stuck at SE logo screen
4. Omnius - payed for a 1 day licence. I can flash it, but still nothing happens. I can't flash read my SE, and can't find any repair option in it...
Is there anything that can whipe it clean, and put the original stuff back again? Or any other solution?
P.S. I can't turn of the screen, not even with home+backbutton+power, only if i get the battery out.
I never thought the repair option in PC Companion wouldn't work if i ever bricked my phone, but ... as I can see for myself it doesn't .
Thank you in advance... hope to get it running, even if it costs me some money
And once again seus ! But remeber seus is not pc companion
Hey there,
If you take out your battery for over a minute and then put it back in, it should stop trying to boot up.
Also, when u connect your phone to the computer while keeping the back button pressed, SEUS should be able to install stock software/firmware regardless of it's opinion that u already have the latest.
This thread is very detailed about unbricking your phone too --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1040149 (helped me lots before as well)

Goodluck with your phone
my phone just came back from service and i just bricked my x10i while i was trying to load blackedition rom.i watched all these steps but it didnt work again.now pc companion gives me the error that i already have the latest version.what can i do now.do i have to send it back to service again?
Open pc companion, start update and click where it says Repair phone, select your model and pc companion will rewrite your firmware even if it doesn't have what to update.
If that doesn't work, try flashing using flashtool, a tutorial is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 , and you'll find a firmware here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733 .

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
find ur firmware, probably this Global GGL Generic 1232-9897 build 3.0.1.G.0.75, download it, now download flashtool, open it up, move the firmware ftf file to firmware folder of flashtools...rfer to the flashtools instructions on this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
I flashed 'Feralab bulletproof rom v32.1'
Now it's bricked at sony ericson screen.
Flashtool wont detect it,nor will sony pc companion (both did prior to the error), and (Seus) doesnt even have x10 option.
Please help.
It's not even myphone and I was lead to believe its easy and you 'can't brick this phone.
The whole things been a nightmare.
Some help would be great ?
it took me days to be able to even post in parts of this website.
On seus just choose another phone. Like xperia z or something. It should recognize it as x10. Then follow the instructions. Is your bootloader unlocked?
im having the same issue here
we need help from the experts!
Pc companion says there is no software available for this phone... I'm stuck!
EDIT: Never Mind, Follow this instructions to flash 2.3 Gingerbread on your device and you should do fine
