[Q] X10 cannot turn on - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My x10 was just out of battery, and i cannot charge it. there is no light on.
I thought the battery dead and i bought a new battery.
When i press the on button,it's only vibrate a bit then nothing happen. NO LIGHT...
Just stop there.
Could someone help me out? Is it really dead, or...?
I rooted it, but everything works fine until it auto turned off because of low battery.

that mean good for u...
leave your phone charging for 1hour..
then use SEUS...
and follow the simple step..
hope this help

I used the flashtool, but it stops at 0%... i dont know.

Even if the light does not come on.. just leave it to charge. -_-
If it still wont come on after 3 hours.
check charger... then check for replacement battery.
Then try to re-flash to stock. "i suggest Doomlord's pre-rooted stock"

Phone bricked, cannot charge, need help ASAP

I need help with this NOW if anyone can. I figured I'd go ahead and make a thread for it so it would get seen. I was trying to update to 2.1 and something went wrong. Long story short the battery drained and now even when it's plugged into the wall all it does is flash its little red light. If I can get it to charge I think I can get things working again but as it stands I don't even know if it is charging. If I have it plugged into the wall and remove the battery the led turns green. If I put the batt back in afterwards it will go off after a bit and eventually "turn on" (in this case that just means that the screen comes on but is completely black but backlit) but there is no led indication at all so i don't know if it's charging or what. It doesn't seem to be. I really need help asap. Thanks in advance.
Silly question perhaps.. have you tried putting it into flash mode for SEUS (phone off hold back key, plug in USB cable)...?? does it register the phone?
Open pc companion hold back button and insert the micro Ian until it says stop it should then tell you your software is already the latest but if there's a problem you can use the repair option. Hth

Tried it just now, nothing.
My suggestion would be to plug it in for a few hours then try again. Or take battery out completely and try the back button without a battery. Might work. Might not. Sorry. Doubt the phone is bricked tho.

Just out of interest how long have you left it on the charge for? Because the red light flashes while charging until 10% and I remember once when my battery fully drained it did that for a few minutes until phone turned on again. Leave it for a while if you haven't done so.
The reason I ask is, incase you saw red light flashing and took it off charge straight away thinking its faulty? Like I said it sometimes takes a while to turn on fully when battery has died.
Edit: I know this is unhelpful, but that's why when you update via SEUS it says to ensure battery has 50%

I got he same problem 3 weeks ago. i could not get the phone to boot anymore even after trying all the unbrick method available here. so i sent it to sony ericsson service and they changed the motherboard.
okay, been charging for a while now and still have the red light. Pretty confident it isn't charging.
Plz try another usb cablr. I know about 20 people whoms usb cable accidently died and the phones cannot charge anymore ....

But the phone won't even boot. Will the battery charge while it's off? or when it's on a black screen? I know 2.1 lets it charge when it's off now, but the OP said the update screwed up.
Other suggestions that may take some time:
1. Find someone else who has an X10 and charge it in their phone.
2. Bring it to your phone provider and ask them to charge it.
3. Bring it to your phone provider and exchange the battery (temporarily?).
4. Buy an external wall charger (one that lets you charge the battery directly, not in the phone).
I ended up bypassing the phone and charging the battery directly via a macgyvered usb cable. Don't ask. lol. But I got it charged enough to use the se update tool and restore it back to the original rom. I'll try the update to 2.1 later after I get this thing charged all the way up. Thanks guys.

Cant charge my phone!! Help plz...

Hello,
Maybe u guys can help me?? I have bionix 1.3.1 and tigers blood kernel and ginger red theme but i had over stock kernel before. In the beginning when i first installed my rom i would hook it up to my pc or a wall outlet it would recognize my phone and it would charge. But lately when ever i plug it into wall outlet or to my pc it wont charge and the only way it will charge is if i reboot while its plugged in. Then when it comes back on it starts to charge, weird huh???? Does anyone know how to fix this? CAN Someone Plz help me???
TY so much for ur help!
thats odd. I havent run both in unison but i know they both werk with no probs respectively. Which versions are you running? Bionix1.3.1? Tigerbloodv3?.... maybe try a reflash? i'm charging my phone atm if no one else replies in an hour i'll flash them both for ya and post my results, but im thinking its prob gonna be a simple reflash or redownload fix kinda thing at this point Bionix and Tigersblood are proven game winners and DD's. good luck!
does anyone have a solution?? plz... TY

have you tried to pull the battery and put it back in for good measure?

Cant reproduce problem
I flashed back to Bionix1.3.1 yesterday flashed Tigersbloodv3 on top of it. Ran it all day plugged into my PC with no problems of charging or internal/external mount to PC. Everything werked perfectly for me all day. Flashed theme Mortalkombat SubZero ontop and plugged into wall outlet charged all night with no problems here.
I'll keep running it to see if anything pops up.
- How long was it till you started having charge isues?
- Have you tried reflash?(prob fix it)
- Have you tried redownload?(prob fix it)
- Have you tried another theme since?(maybe its a theme issue{unlikely})
good luck!
did you fix?

the battery pull didnt work, but im gonna try to reflash my rom and another theme to see if that fixes it. Ty guys for ur help very much appreciated.
you can also buy a separate wall charger. i dont charge any phones through the pc for some reason i always liked and preferred to have a wall charger and it seems to be faster as well.
I agree about wall charger. Get an extra batt too then u can always have a batt with 100% and flash away.
lets us know how it goes. Good luck!

I am having the exact same problem, the phone wouldn't charge unless I reboot it, then it would work for a little bit. After a short while, the phone wouldn't charge again when I have it plugged in. I tried wall charger, car charger, USB, nothing would get the phone to charge except to reboot. I am running Trigger 3.2, tried reflash it several times, but the problem wouldn't go away.
did you return the phone for an exchange?

Also have u actually tried using flashtool? Or better Sony Ericsson update service?

Does the screen light up at all when you put in a battery? If it lights up slightly but still is "black screen" then try this to get into flash mode: remove battery, insert usb, hold back button and keep holding while you replace the battery.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
are you sure the batteries have a decent charge?
Im not new, and yes I know what flash mode is, no its all black screen, the batteries are either low or dead, either way the phone won't offline charge

try leaving it plugged in for a little bit with the battery in anyway, an hour or so. If you're on a custom rom it might still charge enough to get it into flash mode
ive been trying, its like it doesnt have a pluse, no response to anything at all!! I'm dieing right now because I need to flash a rogers ROM on it and its kapput, it's so weird. Why me..

seriously plug it in with the battery in and leave it alone for a while...
I know it's tempting to keep trying, but you'll just drive yourself batty. Best to leave it alone take a breather for an hour, go have a beer and hopefully by the time you get back it will be responsive

its probably your motherboard that has burned up so if you can't get three phone in flash mode you are kind of screwed right know and the only option you have is to send it for repair and hope for the best.

not really, if both batteries are dead it could easily be just that....
find an external charger or a friend with an extra x10 and try charging the batteries before trying!

I hear you can take the back cover off pull the battery and plug in the charger and you might get a light on the phone after a minute or two then with it still plugged in push the battery back and let sit over night.
You can also try this after 5 minutes with no light and leave overnight as I read a few places it allows the battery to charge
yes, if you take out the battery, then plug the phone into a *WALL* charger *NOT COMPUTER USB PORT* the green led should light up. when its green, try inserting the battery, then leave it alone for a while and see if it starts to charge.
good luck

I had exactly the same situation, zero battery and also feared that I lose my X10. What do I did?
1) Downloaded X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.ftf (and put it in the proper FlashTool folder).
2) Removed the battery for 1 minute, put the battery in the mobile again but don't powered the mobile on and also don't used the USB cable.
3) Started Flashtool and choosed to flash the file, and only connected the USB cable while pressing the "Back" button. When it ended flash, disconected the cable and... voila! It was working OK again. After that I installed my fave-super-complete WB ROM again.
So, why I'm being sooo detailed if you aren't n00b? Because when stressed, we sometimes forget something.
Hope the Stock 2.1 ROM in FlashTool helps you like it helped me.

[Q] Please, I really need your help, phone dead as dead can be...

Hi,
Yesterday I was lying on my bed, when suddenly my X10 Mini Pro died . I was just installing some apps, and then it froze for about 3 minutes. Then it shutted down. At first I tried to charge it, but it didn't do anything. The screen didn't even turn on. Then I ran SEUS, didn't work, used the flashtool, didn't work, because it didn't recognize the phone when I plug in the charger while holding the back button...
When I plug my charger in my phone the LED flashes a red light though (like when your battery is low), and after a few minutes the red light stops. When I try to power him up, the red light flashes faster (like it's battery is dead). So I thinkl it's not entirely dead.
Maybe this is a battery issue or something? Maybe my charger broke? Something else?
Please help me, I'm begging you. I can't afford a new phone, I'm broke as hell
heya, from the info you've given I don't reckon it's something obvious that caused this?
gordon's gate should force your pc to recognize your phone so it'll work with SEUS.
just install it, then open it so it says usb id's have been resetted, and connect your phone holding back button.
hope that helps you solve it
No, does not work . Really big thanks anyway.
I ordered a new battery, maybe that will solve the problem. Or is it possible my charging cable is defect or something?

If when your phone crashed battery was still good, then it is your battery. If it just went off because your battery was empty then it can be your charging cable but I doubt it.
judging from the symptoms, i think battery is the most plausible cause as well.
sorry i couldn't help tho

Oh wow, it suddenly worked! I'm a happy person again!

I see that the phone is powered off, and plugged into a charger. Unfortunately that is a known bug of OMNI on this phone, and I am not aware of a solution beyond avoiding this condition. The phone will boot fine once you unplug the charger. leaving it plugged in may discharge the battery completely. The quickest way to charge this device on OMNI is to plug it in while booted into recovery.
What firmware are you running? what have you tried?

So you bought a battery. Was it new? Are you able to verify that is has sufficient charge? Have you tried an external charger? Have you tried to enter download mode? (to allow the pfone to be powered by the usb-port)
I ended up having to bring the phone back to the store to have them replace the battery. I read somewhere that the Galaxy S2 phones can only charge once the phone is on. However, the battery must have enough power to turn the phone on before it can charge, If you completely drain the battery, it won't start so you can't charge the phone. It is an endless cycle of stupid. I purchased an external charger on Ebay so I can avoid the situation entirely.

when i put the phone to charging, it have 10% of battery, but phone turned off and i get same problem as in the video.
I take the battery of my friend, he also have an i777, but don't have this problems with charging.
And another problem was that i left phone in stand by 7-8 hours with 70% of battery and when i check it in the morning it was dead.All apps was closed.
