Hi,
First of all I know there is a lot of thread about this but i read most of them but i couldn't find a solution to my problem.
I bricked my phone when i was trying to put up the ics rom and the custom kernel for that. I know that i shouldn't had to try, but i did and its went bad.
So the problem is that my phone stuck at SE logo. I cant get into the recovery. When i try to flash an another kernel it says it was successful but nothing happens with the phone.
I tried to repair it with SEUS but it says "your phone has the newest software" or something like this. Pc Companion does the same.
Please help me i've tried everything, but its still not good. Are there any chance to get my phone back to life? If there is, please let me know it.If i take it to a repairer, they could fix it?
Thanks to everyone who spend some time to help me!
super sorry for you.
try downgrading first and then upgrading the kernel. and try flashing a stock Rom 2.1 or 2.3. hope it works out. PV message me if you ever get it fixed. I remember really messing up my x10 unlocking the bootloader, the program froze on me and man the results we crazy. but it all worked out.
Hey buddy ur phone isn't bricked don't worry get flashtool and flash global generic 2.3.3 firmware (.ftf file type) I think it in 2nd or 3rd post in flashtool thread. That'll put u back to "from-the-shop" settings

I already posted my problems on this wall and I tried every solutions that people suggested me but it still not working....... bad.....
So I wanna say exactly what is my problems.
First of all, I rooted my phone when the version was 2.1 eclair and I did not use any custom rom I just used lagfix app
Secondary, I watched news that I was able to upgrade my phone to 2.2 froyo by official update. so I tried to update my version by kies mini without eliminating rooting system. the updating was working and my phone rebooted automatically but after I saw the hallmark as samsung galaxy s on the screen, my phone's screen was dark and I cannot see anything. Just sometimes it vibrated.
thirdly, I tried to recover by odin and official rom but it did not work.
at that time, odin stopped when it installed modem.bin (I used odin v1.0 first and I changed v1.7)
Finally, I posted my problems on this board and I got some suggestions from other great guys. so I tried 3 roms( T959UVJFD.tar, T959UVJI6.tar and another one) and I tried whole version odin to solve the problems. However, it did not work for me...........
WHatever I used different roms, odin always stopped when it installs modem.bin.... I think that is the most serious problem....
Please if you guys know how to solve this problems.... plz say me..... I will really appreciate guys..... Thanks
If I follow you guys instructions and my phone get back... I will give the poster 20 bucks by paypal...... plz help me..
Will you go to my noob guide and follow my instructions for the ALT METHOD? (its in my signature)
Be sure and download the correct files. And Please use the ODIN version I suggest.
I included videos and I suggest watching them to make sure you are not doing something silly.
If it works, give the money to a developer of your choice... or give it to me and I will give it to some I have not donated to recently.

Was there a lag fix in place when you tried to ODIN back to stock, My very first Rom I ever flashed I had OCLF in place and tried to ODIN back to the original files and it was a nightmare getting it to work. You can always blame TMO on there 2.2 update and they more than likely will give you a new phone, But follow ss10823's thread he has some good stuff out there.
After i flashed tha rom i downloaded my phone got stuck on tha boot screen. I tried to do a restore but it says no backup "abort". I did a backup last night. So i know there is one. Do i jus need to reflash tha phone? Im confused
first of all, you're not supposed to flash anything in this forum. this forum is for p500 and p509.
second, if you cant boot past the splash screen, you're bricked. however, i think you can still boot into emergency mode. bad news is, you would only need that for kdz updater (which you can use to flash back the stock rom only if you have the kdz file, which i believe is not available for your phone)
Thanks for tha reply. My phone has been rooted and has cyanogen mod done. I can get to recovery screen so it could be easily done from what Ive read so far. I jus cant find my backup. Does anyone know where i can find tha stock firmware or rom for it?
if you go to nand restore, your backup should be there. if its not there, you either have to find a custom rom for the p506 (i dont think theres any) or you have to flash the p506 kdz file (which i tried to find for you but i cant. ill keep looking) using kdz updater
EDIT: check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087601
maybe you can ask kad_79 if he can make a nand backup for you to flash
Thanks for tha help. Ive been lookin everywhere myself. Not many people messing wit these phones. But i did find sum hacks for it before i tried tha rom. Im gonna do some more experimenting when i get my phone goin again. I dont wanna have to send it to lg. I asked him. Maybe if he dont have it someone else will.
Edit: Ok i found the original rom along wit many others. Its gonna take a while to download cuz im tethering with a slow sony ericsson phone. Cant wait to get android goin again!

glad i was able to help. just remember, before you flash any rom, make sure that its compatible with your phone
Its supposed to be tha stock rom. I know to verify my backups from now on. I will post tha link for tha rom when i get my thrive goin again. Ive seen other people lookin for it as well.
Its working!!!
Update: well after several days of trying to figure out how to use fastboot to flash this rom i got tired of searching. i went and got a sdcard reader transferred the zip file to my card and flashed with cwm recovery. My thrive is working like it should now. Im gonna back up everything and start some experimenting now. Thx for the help. anyone has anything they want tested for a p506 thrive, im willing to do it. thx for the help
HELP!!! after searching all the posts i cant find a fix for this, i was running Team Rom on my X10, decided to change to MIUI prime, for some reason my phone then wont boot up after reboot? just stays on SE logo,I tried the SE PC companion, and after running the update process there, it returned error: there is no software available for your phone at this time??
I cant find any reference to this anywhere online??
Has anyone come across or know of a fix??
Thanks in advance
Get Flashtool. Look in the dev section.
just flash back your original firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733 using Flashtool and redo the rooting back..back to your MIUI Rom flashing problem..did you read the cobrato method of flashing locked/unlocked bootloader?? if yes..after flashing the MIUI Rom completed using CWM5..immediately flash lockedBL.zip (i presume your X10 is locked)..then reboot
I had a similar problem, I screwed up flashing between roms and the phone wouldn't boot up. I ended up wiping everything, on phone and sd card. I really screwed up! I tried SEUS repair but it wouldn't let me, my bootloader is unlocked so that's why I suspect. In the end I flashed a stock 2.3.3 rom and went from there, all's good now. As for SEUS, even re locking the bootloader didn't help, something to do with DRM, not sure, at least flashtool is a life saver
you could always try the Update service from Sony, saved me a lot of times as that little gem
Flash back to 2.1 generic firmware using flashtool.
You'll need to find the 2.1 firmware on Google(its an xda thread). Then via flash tool flash that firmware. Now everything should work.
I hope you know how to put your phone in mto flashmode

[Q] Rooted x10a stuck at "se" screen; SEUS, Flashtool not helping. What's next?
Working on my wife's AT&T x10a. When she got it several months ago it came with 1.6, and I updated to 2.1 through PC Companion. She recently decided she wanted root, so yesterday morning I rooted with SuperOneClick 1.5.5, after trying a couple of newer versions with no success. Root Checker from Play Store confirmed root. She said she really wanted 2.2 or 2.3, so this morning I started looking at installing a new rom.
1. Installed Flashtool according to this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
It recognized my phone, and appeared to have the needed drivers. I installed CWM via Flashtool, again it appears successfully.
2. Using Flashtool, and the instructions and files in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192152
I attempted to install 2.3.3 via the Recovery method mentioned. It appeared to be going fine, I followed the instructions completely, but after step 13, when it's time to restart device, it loads the "sony ericsson" logo on the black screen, and hangs there. I left it for 15 minutes or so to see if anything happened, but nothing.
3. I then attempted to go back to stock 2.1 with SEUS, but it wants me to pull down the tray and hook up USB and tick Debugging. Well if the phone is stuck at boot there's no way for me to do that.
4. Attempted to flash x10a generic 2.1 from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
but ended up stuck at the se logo screen as in step 2 above.
At this point, I'm lost. I've been reading so many threads I'm having trouble keeping track of what I read and where I read it. I'm going to start from square 1, and re-read what I've gone through so far on the chance that I might have missed something. But in the meantime, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My wife is enormously patient about this, but it's her phone, and she really liked the little x10. I'd love to get it running for her again, stock 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, CM7, whatever it takes.
Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.
Have you tried an older version of f lash tool. Like 6.8. People have trouble with newer version. Use old flashtool and flash 2.3.3 stock ftf file
From my XPERIA X10S v8.2 @ 1.19ghz. IF SOMEONE HELPS CLICK 'THANKS'
I have always use flashtool to root (no super one click and other things) and there was never any problems so use only flashtool!
When u have an instruction to do something why do not use it?
My ideas:
1. Can u go to xrec now? U could try to restore some backup then.
2. Try to flash 2.3 stock with flashtool or repair phone in official pc companion software
3. Try to flash 2.1 stock with flashtool
4. Try older Flashtool versions
I had a similar problem, I just flashed a stock 2.3.3 firmware via flashtool and booted up fine

An update: last night (or rather, early this morning) in desperation I flashed a generic 2.1 x10i rom I had inadvertently downloaded yesterday, using Flashtool. Lo and behold the little phone came to life. Wife can make and receive calls, and Contacts came back. I have no idea why it worked this time, but at least the phone is functional.
So now I'm back to square 1. That's progress I guess. She still wants 2.3, so tomorrow I'll be starting the process over. Think I'll take a different tack this time.
Thank you all for your suggestions. I hadn't considered using an earlier version of Flashtool, though that makes sense; I had to try 3 different versions of SuperOneClick before I got one that worked. I used S1C at first because it seemed so simple, but looking at Flashtool I suspect things might have gone easier if I had used it from the beginning.
A couple more questions:
1. Will having the x10i rom cause any problems? I'm thinking not, but I'm a little leery after yesterday's difficulty.
2. I've heard reports that stock 2.3.3 is kinda laggy. I take you all are pleased?
3. Where's a good place to find stock 2.3.3 ftf?
Thanks for all your advice.

I dont know were you can get a 2.3.3 ftf file i havent found a working one:/ if i were you i would the 2.3.3 and install ferlabs rom for LB its amazing simple fast and awesome. and yes stock 2.3.3 is somewhat laggy but not really just root and install a custom rom! hope this helps you i remebr in i think 7.1 flashtool there is a rebrand option in the pull down menu to rebrand your x10 so like the porivders firmware i think? so try that if you need to
If your ROM won't boot but you have access to recovery, step one is to wipe cache and Dalvik cache and reboot. If that doesn't do the trick, reflash, rinse, and repeat.
I went a little ROM crazy this past weekend. I landed on CM7 for now, but of all the ones I tried X10S was probably the best "stock-like" experience. It's a port of the Xperia S firmware for the X10, and I was really impressed with the speed and responsiveness.
This guy does a little video demo, and you'll find a link to a helpful install guide in the vid description:
Fair warning, I flashed this ROM twice over the weekend, and both times it took multiple boots, pulling the battery and sometimes doing cache/Dalvik wipes in recovery, before I got past the "xperia" boot screen. It's really pretty common after flashing a new ROM.
it take a while but all Stock Gingerbread tft files are still here

Help!
I have an Xperia P. I decided to try cyanogenmod using the freeXperia projects fine work.
However I have seriously messed up it seems. After following the tutorial on DooLords page I encountered an small error, the Cyanogenmod 9 boot screen got stuck. No big deal. Apparentl this can happen. So i thought that I wouldn't risk doing anything more and would go back to the safety of my rooted Stock Rom.
Now however I have a bootloop of Sony going to Cyanogenmod. The phone now says that it is NOT rooted meaning that i can't flash any other kernels or roms to return to normal. I am at a dead end. I am a first time poster, a bit of a noob, but frequent visitor to the forums. Iwould really appreciate anyones assistance.
Bro, not rooted doesnt mean you cant flash kernels. I suggest you to use flashtool and fash official stock rom and thats it.
Bootloop
Bro what does flashtool say when you connect it to the computer??
Plz giv details....

Hi, thanks for the reply. I have sorted the problem. However I'm not exactly sure how. I had flashed a kernel that had relocked the bootloader i think meaning that I couldn't flash any rom through flashtool. Then when the phone started to run out of battery I couldn't even get to fastboot mode or flashmode. I left it overnight on charge with the bootloop running over and over again which gave me enough juice to reflash. All back to normal now. Phew!
