Hi. I'm a newbie on xda and I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me.
I have a problem with my X10i. It used to run stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread with root access and busybox / xRecovery 0.3 already installed. I decided to install DiXperia 7 'Avenger' by DiKeJ (greetings, buddy) on my device using xR. I downloaded the ROM and pasted it directly into my SD card. Then I did all the steps:
-Factory Reset
-Wipe Cache Partition
-Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Wipe Battery Stats
I choosed Install Custom Zip to install DX7. The console displayed few lines of code which I don't remember and this error:
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Device or resource busy)
E: Can't mount /sdcard
After this my phone freezes on SE logo, I can't run xRecovery, system or even charge my phone. I tried to flash it using Flashtool, but it doesn't recognize my device.
Is there any chance to resurrect my Xperia? I want to use it again, even with the stock ROM?
Greetings
Yes it possible, and impossible to break your device for now - sometimes this problem exist, don't know why, and not only on my ROM - it's possible on all X10, I had it too one time when I wanted to flash Wolfbreak's ROM v4 (old time ). Let's back to your problem - you need to apply again Stock ROM 2.3.3 - install it via SEUS/PcCompanion (or FlashTool, but I suggest official app. If you can't flash via FT, then you need to update your drivers for X10), and then make Root, Busybox, and xRecovery 0.3, I suggest you GB ready (the newest FlashTool have it included all). Then problem should dissapear, without anything. I think it should help. Take care buddy .
DiKeJ I can't remember. Does Your ROM require an unlocked bootloader?

Thank you very much, DiKeJ. My X10 has been saved!
But I still want to install DX7. What did I do wrong (or what's wrong with my SD card)? How can I make it work next time?
Anybody care to tell me how to get any of those methods to work? I got my x10 stuck at the SE logo while flashing, and I can't do anything with it. None of the programs can recognize it and it won't boot into recovery.
can you help me my x10i freeze at "Sony Ericsson" after rooting kernel help me please
im from philippines and i don't think we have sony ericsson care here
can you send me in my email? [email protected] please
I guess the best solution to get ride of this issue is to flash the stock full firmware and then do everything from the beginning.
To do that, you should visit this topic : [TOOL/X10] [UPDATE 07/04/2012] Flashtool version 0.6.9.0
Then flash a generic firmware(you choose whatever you like) using flashtool
Once your phone is booted, you can try to mod it as you wish.
If you would like to change the kernel, I advise you to unlock the bootloader : read the topic
Hope this gonna help

It should work in x10i manong, just start from the beginning which you need apply again the stock 2.3.3 ROM from sony ericsson (sony mobile these days) via PC Suite then Root and install busybox and xRecovery 0.3 and the problem is solved. I tried it to my friend's phone which is x10i also, and it works. Just follow the instructions given by DiKeJ and you'll be fine. :good:

I've installed a custom 2.2 rom to my X10, but I wanted to restore my phone to the standard 2.1 rom because of issues I had to restore my backup files.
Flashing with SEUS or PCC didn't work, so I thought I'd try to remove the custom 2.2 rom with Xrecovery. I selected wipe system from the Xrecovery menu. That didn't went well..
My phone doesn't boot anymore, it's getting stuck when the white Sony Ericcson appears on the display.
I already tried to flash my phone with SEUS and PCC, but I get the message I already have the newest software installed.
Flashing with Flashtool did work, but then I have to reboot my phone to turn on debugging/ unknown sources. And that still doesn't work.
Somebody can help me with this please?
Hook up to SEUS and when it says you already have the latest software, it also gives you the choice of going ahead and (re)installing it anyway. Do that, and that should take care of the problems. If you don't see that option, you should try downloading the latest version of SEUS, installing it, and trying again.
Since you did a full wipe you've lost xRecovery too, so SEUS is your best bet IMO.
I have SEUS Version: 2.11.1.9
It doesn't work, same message. I don't see an option to install it anyway..

To flash with Bynary's flash tool you don't need to be on usb debugging mode... Just put your cellphone on flash mode...
press the back key while you insert the usb cable and then flash whatever firmware you want...
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
recommendation is 2.1.A.0.435 because of MT & stability.

Please answer this question, what the heck did you downgrade, I hope you just downgraded the kernal.
What method of rooting did you use?
But first, what is your phone's:
firmware: 2.1 or 2.3
baseband
do you have xrecovery
If you would like help, I and others are willing to help you. Just post again and I will post links of the rooting method and guides to flashtool.
It happened to me... I was trying to install Jerpelea's latest 2.3.5, and suddenly my phone keeps rebooting from SE logo.. I can go into xrecovery, but when I try to recover a backup, it says it can't mount the sdcard...
What can i do?
Is my phone ruined??
Tks..
Have you installed latest SE adb driver?
Unplug your battery about 3 minutes then plug it again, use flashtool to flash 2.1 firmware, then connect it and press back button till green light appear, let it alone till finished.
Root your 2.1 fw, install recovery, and simply flash wolf 2.3 ROM, unplug your battery, plug it again and flash baseband 71.
Now your phone should be boot properly.
You almost cant break your X10 by flashing anything, cause bootloader is locked.

You cant ruin it mate.
Just install your recovery again, try with apk.
I think you have old recovery, cause this problem appear when gb just released, and now fixed.
You can find topic about it on X10 android development forums, Z already fixed it.

Ok, but the problem is: I can't start the phone, and the sdcard doesn't mount properly so I can recover a backup....
How can I install de recovery again without starting the phone?
You're right, I had the old recovery installed...
EDIT: And now I cant even go into recovery... It's fully stuck on SE logo... Damn!
Turn phone off. Boot pc companion. Goto update service. Click update. Says no phone found. Click repair option. Follow steps on screen. It will flash latest SE firmware. Root. Install recovery. Restore your backup on your now mountable sd card. Done you can't break this phone, can always restore through pc companion.

Flash stock firmware from flashtool, if you dont know about how to use flashtool.
Just go to x10 android development forum, find thread about flashtool by androxyde.
Dont be so worry about your phone, you cant break it with flashing ROM or kernel.

Good evening

Why dont u flash custom roms directly since you are already using a custom rom?
thanks for the reply!
I tried to backup phone to first setup but nothing... I have rooted it through z4root and the only 2.3 that I found is the official and some custom under development. I hate the fact that camera doesn not work normal and has only the "macro" option.
There are many good roms in the development section (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=617&order=desc).
I personally like Wolf's rom, as it is very stable, and has Bravia & xLoud in it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192988
damn! Phone stuck at SE logo!
MAYDAY! Please help!!!
Hi, which rom did you flash? And it is normal for the phone to load a little longer (wait up to 5 minutes) for its first boot.
I put in SD wolf's rom, "install custom zip" through xRecovery, reboot, the end...
I have SE logo for 15'. Nothing happens

How to install this ROM?! [Fresh Install]
Reboot into xRecovery and make a back-up of your current ROM. (You'll need a working xRecovery or else it will say Device/SD Card busy).
Wipe the following in xRecovery:
Factory Reset (Full wipe)
Wipe Cache Partition
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Go to install Custom Zip and choose Wolf_GB_2.3_TW_V4.zip
The following steps are only required if you don't have the new 2.3 kernel and .71 baseband, if you do have them you can reboot your phone and enjoy this ROM.
Turn off the phone by taking out your battery when ROM installation is finished
Open Flashtool and flash the FTF Bundle I made available for download. Press on Flash and follow the steps given to put your x10 into flashmode and flash the baseband and kernel.
When Flashtool is finished you can plug out the USB, turn your phone on and enjoy this ROM!

Did you follow the instructions here? You will need to follow ALL instructions, just installing with custom zip will not work.
FINALLY!!! I made it! My mistake was the flashing and phone was not able to read sim. Thanks a lot!!! 100000 thanks for your time and your help!
No problem.
You can use wotanserver
I installed Wolf's rom but I do not see the Bravia engine option. Can you help me a bit?
Just flash this with xRecovery.

Hi,
I'm new here and i hope my english is not as bad as i think
I've installed the CM7 v21 for mini pro
It works very fine and I'm really satisfied
But I've one big problem
If I use the hardware keyboard, I can't use the touchscreen any more.
I have to reboot the phone, then the touchscreen works without any problem.
When I use the hardware keyboard again, I have the same problem...
Any suggestions?
Please help
Thanks
Kettex
Are there really no suggestions?
Did you make full wipe before flashing rom? What kernel do you use?
First at all thanks for the answer!
Yes I made a full wipe
I use the standard kernel:
kernel-version:
2.6.29

maybe one more wipe data -after- fresh installing of rom ? hm really don't know
I don't think the problem came up with the new rom, because I also had the problem with another rom (Andread 2.3.5)
I'll try a wipe again
Did you have 2.1.1.A.0.6 kernel and SE firmare before you flashed new ROM?
You need to download flashtool and install it, from this thread download 2.1.1.A.0.6 kernel and lybril files for that kernel. Third file is dual touch module and it's optional if you want dual touch Unzip ftf file and copy to subdirectory firmares of flashtool folder. Unziped lybril files copy to root of sd card.
Tutorial for using flashtool
Now proceed with step by step with steps below:
1. Charge your phone fully before going any further
2. Enter CWM and backup your current ROM
3. Turn off your phone and flash the kernel you downloaded
4. Turn on phone and enter CWM and flash lybril files
5. Turn off phone and repair your phone using PC Companion
6. After this steps turn on the phone, root it, install cwm again, flash new ROM and enjoy.
EDIT: added files to attachments
I'll try this, but all the download links are down
Doesn't work anyway... :-/
SEUS is official removed by Sony Ericsson but don't worry just download latest PC Companion and start your in flashmode (you can see green light in the corner) and go to the support zone and update your phone..Bingo your phone starts like its nothing happen
This post was not really helpful Maya ;-)
I repaired the phone with PC Companion and I flashed the stock rom --> everything was fine
But the problem with the touchscreen and the hardware keyboard even occured at stock rom 2.1 update 1
I followed the steps in the post above, but I got the same problem again and again...

Hi, first i want to say sorry about my english level and thanks to people who reads my post.
I try to flash mi xperia mini pro sk17, with ..058 version of firmware, unlocked bootloader, rooted and with CWM.
Will follow the step by step instruction, and after instalation my phone is stuck on Sony Ericsson screen and nothing happens about 10 minutes and after then i remove the battery and try to enter in CWM and again nothing happens.
Does anyone have the same problem and how you resolve it ?
Thanks in advance for people who help me !
Respect for all XDA members !
Occured same problem, flashed my phone back to stock firmware until I find a solution.
Anyone has one?
ok...i will try to explain....I believe you have installed nAa-r2 CWM? It is defective CWM since it is put in system/ section... hybrom rewrites this section, thus, when you start recovery from system/ and try to install ROM, you try to erase CWM from under CWM....just update your FW to .62, install custom kernel you like and then make all wipes and install zip from sd card)

Yeah, I think the best way is to update to .62, then install b kernel (made by bbooff himself - unlock bootloader needed) then load Hybrom, then you can install any other kernel you like. But I have problem with X kernel with Hybrom, first one is bootloo and then draining batterry very fast ^^"

the rom is based on 0.62 Kernel, upgrade first to 0.62 then try flashing again, i dont know if this makes a difference but its worth a try
I solved my problem and installed Hybrom v12 now.
First, indeed, you need to have unlocked bootloader and .62 firmware, I used WotanClient to flash the firmware. Then I got other kernel, I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161 this one.
Then I entered the Clockworkmod Recovery(press power button one-two times, when the screen goes lighter on turning on). Then I followed the instructions from the Hybrom and successfully installed it.
I got WT19i, but should apply the same.
