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.

thanks. i've wait for 10min but still stuck at the SE Logo. i also have try to restore by using SEUS but cannot because of "modified software warning"

i have download SK17i Mini Pro .62 Baseband and Kernel (.ftf) and flash it via flashtool. it shows flash finished and i power on the phone..but still stuck on the SE Logo. i even can't boot into the CWM..
Bootloader unlocked? Flash some custom kernel and let it do the rest (install what you want, like Nero or Hybrom )

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.

I had the same problem with xRecovery.
before I put the beta 2, I have made a backup with xRecovery to save my 2.1 [Eminence v1.2]
then I stucked with SE white logo, I pulled the battery out, rebooted and went back to xRecovery..
so If you didn't made any backup, use Flash Tool or reflash.. same thing, same result

The X10 is impossible to brick, that is about the only good thing with the locked bootloader that SE uses.
You should be able to resolve your problem by starting PC companion agian, and follow the instructions as you did the first time (when you pulled the cable). When inserting the USB while holding the back-key down the phone enters flash mode, this flash mode does not get overwritten when flashing the android OS, so even if the OS is corrupted the flashmode still works, and can be used to rewrite a fresh copy of android to your phone.
Its an easy fix,flash the phone on flash tool

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.
Uh, so I've been having a few problems trying to unlock the bootloader on my X10 and I came to some problems:
1. When I first connected my phone with the USB cable, the FlashTool showed that my phone had debugging mode off even though I checked it and it was on!
2. I ignored this problem and decided to try unlocking the BL anyways. When I shut down my phone, held the back button and plugged the USB cable to put the phone into Flashmode, after 10-20 seconds it would automatically reboot itself and get my phone out of Flashmode, making me unable to flash Kernel Downgrade!
3. This time I trained my fingers and tried to flash Kernel Downgrade before my phone started to reboot itself and I succeeded. But now that I flashed it, the next step for unlocking says
"disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)"
but the problem is that my phone won't go anywhere after the Sony Ericsson text (not the logo with the circle and stuff where it's supposed to)
I am using (or at least was using until I flashed Kernel Downgrade) DoomLord's Kernel v6 and ViolentOS ROM. I have also tried restoring the xRecovery backup I made exactly before starting the flashing, but it still won't work, the phone always gets stuck on the Sony Ericsson text. What am I supposed to do?!
What logo with the circle?? That's the boot animation, loaded when system is already running. It is supposed to be stuck at the first screen, that's when system starts loading kernel and can't with "wrong" baseband.
Sony Ericsson text is WHERE it has to be stuck.
Also, at least for me, I couldn't do unlock without 2.1 rooted system installed, had to flash baseband and system, then unlock and then restore my 2.3 backup.
New Problem

@kalte The logo with the circle is the animation that comes after the text.
But forget what I said. I'm trying to boot the phone and it's not working. I disconnected the USB and took off the battery then put the battery back in to see if it could boot. It's stuck at the text even though I restored everything with an xRecovery backup. Is this because of the Kernel Downgrade?
FIXED IT!
I'm such an awesome person! Just had to flash the Generic Kernel Upgrade. Everything is working, with my previous settings and all.

Flash Stock Firmware of your region using flashtool, to get you phone back to life. & try unlocking your bootloader using Flashtool.
PS- Flashtool never disappoints me.
Well Hi,
I've been trying to flash a rom on my phone yesterday, and I've unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM Touch v5.5.0.4, I then tried to flash TheBrainsRom v10 but my xperia was stuck in bootloop, it opened the sony splash screen, then a nexus splash screen then a sony splash screen and etc. So now, I tried solving the problem by flashing this kernel on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028139 "Other method to root just flash this kernel (B54) via fastboot and you are rooted : here" And that didn't work out too well, i'm now stuck in a bootloop at the sony splash screen. But strangely enough, I can still access the cwm recovery.
As for my phone it's a sony xperia U (ST25i) 6.1.1.b.1.10
Thanks for reading this, and please help me if you can :S

Yes, I did. :L
EDIT: I just saw that the recovery I'm using isn't for my firmware version... Should I flash an older version, even if this one works fine?
I did another full wipe, and reflashed the rom. But it's now stuck in the other bootloop the one that shows the sony splash screen, then the nexus splash screen.
By any chance, while installing ROM, did you wipe System ? I think thats the likeliest thing.
And dude, try flashing stock FTF with Flashtool It might help
Yeah flashing ftf solves everything
Sent from my ST25i using Tapatalk 2
Ok, I will do that, but how? And no, I didn't wipe System. Thanks for your help guys And if anyone can explain to me how to flash the stock ftf, please do.
Follow these steps
1) Start Flashtool
2) Click the Lightning icon then select your FTF
3) Exclude baseband if your device is STxxi and the firmware is for STxxa or viceversa
4) Press ok and start Flash. Then, after a minute or so, Flashtool will ask you to connect the device.
5) Turn off the phone. Connect the usb cable to the PC (not connected to Phone yet)
6) Holding down the "Volume Down" key, you connect the cable to your phone.
7) Give it a few seconds and a Green Light shows up. Then, flashing starts on Flashtool
8) Once flashtool starts flashing, you can stop holding down the Volume Key
9) Wait for the process to finish then unplug the phone and turn it on
That ought to solve your problems. The stock FTF can be found in Dev section of your phone. I'd recommend C.1.0 version as its newer

Well, you could download the update using SEUS and then make a ftf from it.
That is b.1.10 not C.
As far as I know c.1 is specific firmware made specially for T-Mobile Croatia and the only c.1 on this forum for now.
