I was trying to uninstall the theftaware prog from my rooted X10a. I read in a forum from Avast (the owner of theftaware nowadays) that it would be possible to use titanium backup to do it.
Then, I opened titanium backup, and choosed the theftaware app. After a long click, the menu popped up and I choosed to uninstall it. The prog said the phone would boot up twice before complete removal. But then, after automatically booting, the phone shows the sony ericsson logo and then a picture with an "!" in a yellow triangle over a phone draw. After around 10 seconds, the device turned off.
I´ve tried to turn it off again but no success. The SE logo appears, the mentioned picture appears and after 10 secs, turn off again...
What should I do??
I had that when I tried to do something with rom manager.The phone showed a picture of a yellow triangle with an arrow pointing down to a phones screen.
I think I couldnt access xrecovery cos of this,so I had to reflash and use the backup I had made previously using xrecovery.
And I think I had problems reflashing it,loads of errors,flashtool refused to work.I only managed using easy rooting kit.
Maybe wait to see if an expert here has an easier fix,as it took me about 5 hours to fix the problem.

Yes theunderling, this is exactly the picture I see on the screen, so for sure you had very similar problem... Which file should I reflash? My model is X10a.
All I can say is that I was only interested in getting xrecovery back-since I knew I could then launch the back-up I had made.
Maybe there is an easy fix,or maybe you dont have a backup.But if you are just wanting the phone to work,and are not worried about losing stuff-then try a pc companion repair to start off with.
It could take a while for someone else to chip in with some help.....phone unuseable in the mean-time
Do you have anything backed-up,or not worried?

I installation xRecovery, but it does not work, boot while holding back would have been stopped at the Sony Ericsson screen, I think my installation steps are not wrong, because I have two Xperia X10, an old date is 10W28 can enter xrecovery, the new date is 10W48, can not enter xrecovery has been stopped at the Sony Ericsson screen. What is the problem? The new machine not support recovery？who can help me? Looking forward to your reply! Thank you.
PS: I am Chinese, and this post is translated by Google, I hope you can understand
Hi men! I am with same problem! I can not install xrecovery
Why is it? Nobody could understand it!
Thanks for Attention !
Try installing it using the manual method.
You are not suppose to hold back key. Just press it some times until xrecovery screen appears when you see SE logo on screen.
Ive got the same problem, Ive tried everything! To push the back button once, two times, three times, held it forever, waited more than 5 minutes, maybe 10? Still being stuck at Sony Ericsson screen.
I read somewhere, that a person erased all his files in the SD memory card, and put the files in the root of SD card.
And it worked for him. I will give that a shot when I get home, but I dont think it will solve it actually.
Ive rooted my phone, completely, installed busybox (it also confirmed that my phone was rooted), afterwards I installed xRecovery without problems.
Just the last part, being, crazy.. !!! HELP

So i have tried Jit enabler v2 and bricked my SE
it freezes at Sony Ericsson logo,
what i can do is boot via xrecovery and since there i dont know how to remove Jit enabler,
Any advice?
Depending on what version of firmware you have, you need to download : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902974
and install as update.zip "*10* 2.0.A.0.*** Disable JIT.zip". That should help. If not, clear dalvik cache and reboot.
thanks, but how to put it to SD card because since its bircked i cant properly connect the phone so PC would read its SD card?

I suppose that You don't have any card reader :/
I don't really remember if ADB works in xRecovery mode, but You can try, to unpack the "disable jit" package, and push manually files to "/system/bin", and "system/lib". The build.prop should not be a problem tho. You can do that with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868423 but, as I said, I'm not sure about working ADB in xRecovery. I figure You don't have enough time to push files on "Sony Ericsson" logo, cuz it reboots ;/
Just try.
thanks for helping out!
unfortunetly i have a reader, and only remembered after i did via xrecovery full reset (wipe data). BUT it still didnt booted, froze uppon sony ericsson logo, so im now moving files you gave a link and praying xrecovery still works
You moved to fast with wipe
I don't really know what to say to You right now.
but seems there is xrecovery backup, so in case...i think maybe i can reinstall via update service, than restore backup i made before wiping data out and installing jit disabler. Well thats by my logic should work. But im not really expierienced with phones and dont have x10 for a long time...
Unfortunately that I think is the last thing it's left to do. Just repair the phone via SEUS. I don't want to be a ****, but it's a bitter lesson for You, that if You have xRecovery, and ADB enabled theres always a way to get passed "Sony Ericsson logo reboot". Wipe was just to fast thinking. Hope You don't get in a trouble like that ever.
Yea, i tried too long time ago JiT v2 and i also bricked my phone, i also installed by accident wrong firmware ver JiT v1 and ended up, again, with a brick.
I that case, only solution to it is to Reflash whole firmware again. Trust me, i tried all possible solutions and it didnt worked. Luckily i had my contacts backed up on my g account.
I also learned my lesion hard way, and, this is 100% true.. "If you have xRec be sure to always have a backup."
P.S. Dont worry, mini/pro dont die that easily.. Its just get hardly wounded, it will always recover, but sometimes with memory loss (since u didnt had a backup)
When i first time bricked my phone it was a day old, i freaked out, but manage to get a grip and searched forum a bit. Since i like experimenting with my software i manager to brick my phone 10+ times per day..
And.. guess what phone im using now? x10 mini
Well, yea often flashes are not a big problem, but i don't wish that to anybody, cuz as you said, and all know it's a pain in the ass to get back settings, and all the data.
"Bricking" is defiantly to strong word. Boot loops, or hanging on SE logo is far from bricking, we always have a chance to "repair" our devices by ourself, so no problem here. The real problem can be in the future, when boot loader get fully cracked, and for example we interrupt his flashing process - situation well known for other android phones users. Phone gets bricked, and theres **** we can do about it, cuz recovery is obviously not working.
I did learned something else back then (5 years ago) when flashing my phone with with a desktop PC and suddenly power failure.. bricked my phone which not even got any bootloader to start with. Since that moment I always use my laptop to flash my phone as it has battery to continue the flashing process in case power failure happen again.

Hello!
I have a Xperia X10, I installed the official 2.1 (or maybe 2.2, don't know) update some month ago, after that, I rooted it using the one click tool and installed a new font and an animated boot screen using the app "Root Tools". Everything worked fine until today.
I was listening to a web radio stream on my phone, when it suddenly shut off. I wasn't able to turn it on again, so I pulled the battery for a minute.
After that, it wouldn't boot anymore. I get the "Sony Ericsson" screen, then the animated boot screen, as usual. But then nothing. The boot animation is running and running and nothnig else happens.
I already tried removing SIM and SD card, it doesn't help either.
Do I have to reflash it or something like that? Is there any way to backup the application data before? Normally, I'd use Titanium Backup, but unfortunately I can't access it because the phone doesn't boot^^
Best regards,
Cherry
Connect your phone to your PC and run SEUS or PC Companion to repair the phone.
Just plug it in and follow the instructions

Hello everyone and thank you for your time in advance.
First of all, I'm relatively new to the Android OS so forgive me for any mistakes I make describing my problem. I'll try to give as many details as I can, mostly steps I took that I believe that might have led me to my problem, but please feel free to ask anything if you think it could help.
TL;DR version: My problem is this: I'm stuck in the Google Account signing in screen. The phone is requesting me to "Slide keyboard open to continue" while I don't have any keyboard and there is no box on the screen where I would press and the digital keyboard would appear.
So, I have a Sony Xperia X10 mini (i guess its short name is x10i?). A year or more ago I firstly rooted my phone, used xRecovery to flash Cyanogen Mod on it. I'm sure I had the 2.3 Gingerbread version of it. My first "problem" is that when I first looked into the rom's settings (CM Settings) it had many options with the HTC abr in front of it. I didn't tweak most of the options that had that HTC tag on them, only those concerning the keyboard. When I tried to type, it showed different versions of a keyboard on screen, but it always showed a keyboard up. Keep this in mind.
Now, 2 months ago, a friend of mine did something to his android (a galaxy one, cant remember which) and he said the applications were running smoother. He is kinda more informed about Androids than I am so I trusted him and we tried to do the same thing to my phone. It was about Fixing Permissions or something. I deleted the cache he told me through xRecovery (after I backed up ofc) and then booted the phone, only to find my settings and user data lost. The backup I made that day was possibly not complete or something, because when I tried to restore it, it failed and so I lost my SMS/contacts etc. I restored a much older back up and it DID work but I decided to run the most recent one anyway.
From that day on, my phone somehow decided to return all calls as busy. Whenever someone called me, it gave them the busy message and after a while I got a message that they called me. Sometimes for a single call (or irrelevant to calling SMS they sent at another time) I recieved many exact same SMSes. I put up with this situation for a while and tonight I decided to reset my phone and get a new mod in it, or even refresh the same - I didn't really care. So I exported my contact list which was all I cared to save to a file in my sd card (which file I backed up) and tried to see if my xRecovery worked, because my friend told me that it all may have to do with it being corrupt or something.
The result is that I couldn't even get to the Recovery. Not with pressing the power button, choosing to reboot from recovery. Not even with the power button and back button pressed, or repeatedly pressed. Then, I decided I just wanted to reset the phone so I foolishly thought of a factory reset so I could reroot if needed and do the process from scratch. I chose the option, it rebooted. After the Sony Ericsson logo though the Cyanogen Mod logo started to load, which made me wonder why since I thought it would just load the firmware it had when I bought it. And then it started with the press the Android to begin (after the PIN request) and now I'm stuck in the google account set up.
Please help me out, I apologize for the wall of text. It would certainly be fine with me to somehow reset the phone to the state it was when I bought it using SEUS or something like that. I tried doing that tbh, but then all this firmware came up and I didn't know which one to choose plus I can't find a working link to download SEUS, PC Companion etc. Otherwise just please help me out with the rom i used and how to fix this keyboard problem cause I'm thinking the rom wasn't good for my x10mini. Also is there any way to see my sd card's contents via USB with the state my phone is in?
You can skip the google-account setup in the setup wizard ( I think there's three buttons below each other, just press the bottom one and it will guide you through the wizard without actually having to type something
A factory reset just resets all values to factory (or custom ROM) values and deletes all user-data (except the stuff on your sd-card), it won't restore the original ROM.
If you want to start over, do a repair with SEUS (SUS nowadays) of PC Companion, which will give you stock 2.1 back, after which you can go through root etc. again to get your current ROM back..
Or you can give me a pm and i'll provide you with stock firmware which can be flashed using flashtool.. I assume you are still on the stock kernel, ie, you haven't unlocked your bootloader?
ps: the x10 mini is the E10(i or a) or Robyn, the x10 (the big one) is the X10(i or a)
Thread moved. Please post all questions here in Q&A in future.
Thanks

Before the incident, I had root, no unlocked bootloader, stock JB, v20h.
What had happened was I was trying the Font Installer app in th Play Store because of the added customization that would have been nice.
I found a cool font, and I backed up my current fonts and then pressed install. SuperSU asked for permissions like normal and then my phone restarted.
Then it was so that my phone was stuck at the T-Mobile boot animation after the LG Logo. For about 15 minutes. This is where I believed something was starting to go very wrong. After contemplating for a few extra minutes, I decided to just take out the battery and restart. Same outcome. I thought of all the things that were on the phone thus far because I had just gotten it recently, and decided that it wouldn't hurt me to just do a hard reset by pressing home + vol down + power. Everything went smoothly. Except for the fact that even after I did that, it was leaving me at the T-Mobile screen.
I decided to look on the forums for development and tried to do the unbrick method, to no avail after about 3 hours now. I used the LG User Support Tool and since I hadn't updated to V20f, I decided to do that to see if it would solve my problem. It still didn't, and I'll be honest, I'm a little upset just typing this right now.
I also tried the Upgrade Recovery option and it warmed my heart to see that the process was actually starting. But right at the screen where it says that it is supposed to be downloading something, it freezes up and nothing happens no matter how long I wait. I saw somewhere that it should be a glowing red bar, but I do not see that anywhere, it is just frozen, saying Time Elapsed: 00:12. And before anyone asks, yes, I ran absolutely everything as an administrator.
Is there any possible way to bring this phone back? Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

did you hard reset? then turn off your phone disconnect the battery, connect to the pc holding the volume up button? then try the Update Recovery?
i would just go through that process over and over until it works, theres not really a way to brick this phone i've heard...

Thank you for your reply! I have tried hard resetting multiple times, but I had removed some bloatware apps (I will quarantine them next time instead because I don't wanna go through this ever again) and I have tried the kdz method to only be stuck at 15% every time when I followed instructions to the pixel. I have tried to do it on windows 7 and windows 8. I have also tried the fastboot method by lelus, and that manages to "work" but I am still stuck at the tmobile boot screen afterwards. I have gotten the hang of the process of getting into the fastboot, but what do I do from there? I chose to flash ics xloader and uboot, but the process goes by so fast, I'm not even sure it is doing anything. The LG Tool has really gotten me nowhere, it just gives me a lovely error and then cannot continue the upgrade recovery process.
It said somewhere that after I flash through the fastboot I then have to try the kdz method, so I am going to do that now and see if it works. I don't know if there would be a difference between flashing a jb kdz or an ics kdz, but I will just do ics to be on the safe side.
I am quite happy to say that flashing the ics kdz was successful, and my phone is now up and running.

im terrible with fastboot, i used the unlock the bootloader for noobs with an offline flash.
heres what i did to get out of bootloops....
alright, this is all from memory but the offline flash didnt work as well for me when stuck in weird bootloops.
Step one-going back to online flash---->
A---
the easiest way i found was to go to C:/windows/system32/drivers/ect/hosts
right click>open with notepad
there should be two lines at the bottom
"127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com
127.0.0.1 csmgdl.lgmobile.com"
i would cut them out and paste them in a text doc in the same folder for reference later...
but either way you should remove them from the hosts file and save
B----
Make sure your small server is closed! once you minimize it it should go down to your status bar (shttps)
Step two-LGMS---->
make sure you have LG mobile support installed or install it.
open lg mobile support
install needed drivers for your phone
power your phone off/remove the battery
put battery back in
connect it to your computer holding down the volume up button
S/W UPDATE mode should pop up, if it doesn't preform and hardreset and try again til it works (it will)
then in the top right corner there should be a button or two click them both until you see
"restore update" or Update restore or something to that effect
select that
and let it ride man
i got my phone ****ed many times and just had to keep redoing this until it worked. if your bootloader is truely unlocked you can probably go through all that again and get CM10 working, i did but im still working through kinks.....
GOOD LUCK feel free to ask any more Q's about this process if you run into any problems
