My Device is x10 mini pro (u20i).. All of a sudden the touch screen stopped responding... I thought something it wrong with the ROM. So i tried full wipe.. Then I changed it.. In the end went back to stock using SEUS.. But it's no use. There's no sony customer care in my city. So getting help from them is a no go... What can I do? Can anyone help me???? Plz I bought my phone last October. I don't wanna loss hope with it.........
Mate the flex which goes from motherboard to the display is damanged. Get it replaced from the Sony service center. Do not give it to private dealers as they tend to spoil it.hope that helps you

HI mate, maybe it is too late to reply for this but, i think u can try to repair it using pc companion.. I experience the same problem like u before, but it was because i used a wrong kernel. I mean, That kernel is not suitable for the ROM that im using at that time. So i just flash stock kernel n it work like before.
I tried it... I'm running stock now... Used SEUS... But no use.. I think I've send it to Sony now. My phone started acting weird after it fell on the floor.....
ahh. yeah mate, it seem to be a hardware problem, maybe. my phone also fell down for couple of time. the back cover and the battery ripped out the phone, but luckily, nothing wrong happen. when i put all the thing back and turn it on, i check evreything, camera, signal, keypad, wifi connection etc and luckily all things in good condition..

My phone was running z's rom 2.2 for x10 when I took it out of my pocket and the screen was black. The blue lights turned on but not the screen. When I turned off the phone, it wouldn't turn back on.
The computer won't recognize it for flash tool or se fix software or battery won't charge if I hook it up to the charger. what do I do? I have never had this issue before. help would be awesome.
thanks. is it bricked?
Solution sort of: I took my phone in to ATT service center and they said my phone and battery weren't working. So I got a new phone for free. (THANK GOD) Xperia x10 refurbished. So I got to mod it all over again. lol. They couldn't tell me what I did wrong or anything. So I guess I have a solution. So whoever has an issue like me, lets just hope your phone isn't dead like mine The other sad thing was they didn't have a battery for me so they are sending me one through the mail. by tomorrow. one day shipping yess!!!! Thanks for all those who put in helpful ideas. Doing some serious phone pimping pretty soon once I get my battery.
Can you boot into xRecovery?
I have a similar issue here.
I am using the CM6.1.3 custom ROM on my phone (Android 2.2). It ran out of battery(for its first time) this afternoon so I charged it and tried to turn it back on but it wouldn't. It just starts up until the Sony Ericsson logo and just fades out and a white light will turn on at the notification lamp for a while and then reboot again. I tried the Sony Ericsson update service to reinstall the software but I changed the firmware and baseband so it doesn't work and it doesn't seem to be able to boot into xRecovery either. What can I do? Help/advice appreciated!
Problem might be with the faulty offline charging.so your battery's flat.I believe there is a fix for the problem, you might need to borrow a battery, install the fix(check the Rom main page) then you should be good to go :
You could also flash a clean rom using the flashtool version 1.3 I think

can you teach me how to flash a clean rom using the flashtool? i already have the flashtool but i dont really know how to use it
thanks
Look in the development section as there are detailed descriptions on this already, but I can say not to worry as it's impossible to brick this phone, it can always be returned to stock. It's the only good thing about not having a cracked bootloader, we cannot be bricked

Not gunna go into much detail here. I'm sure most people have heard o the motherboard bug which causes the sony ericsson to over heat and reboot as soon as it is turned on and things like that. This problem only started for me when I updated to 2.1. Would downgrading to 1.6therefore stop the reboots because I never got even 1 before. Would changin the battery to a diferent one stop overheating o the battery. Maybe there is a battery specialized or this. Maybe a mugen battery would work? Help greatly appreciated. thanks in advance
I dont think so, i had the same problem and tried everything, last thing was getting the new one, and now i can do anything, and no reboot, i think u should go to SonyEricson and tell them about your problem, they will give you back your phone for about 3 times, then when your problem still persist they will give you a new device or they will change motherboard,
Good Luck (and sorry for bad english ^_^)
Out of Warranty Cant be bothered to explain why. Getting it repaired would cost a lot. CoulD I repair it myself?
your best bet it to use advanced task killer app
sent from my X10 using my wicked awesome premium xda app
I do use that app but 90 percent of the time I cant get my phone on long enough to even think about using it
have you tried reflashing the rom, via repair option on SEUS, or even Flashing a custom rom?
sent from my X10 using my wicked awesome premium xda app
yep didnt work
has anyone tried the downgrading or battery change method that can enlighten me as to wheether it will work or not. Or at least significantly reduce the reboots so I can actually use the phone

Yes i think some thing inside the rom could help. One of my friend have X10 with mainboard bug like u. But as i sure in xrecovery it never reboot even you flash a rom sooooo....it should be something inside the room or kernel
sorry i dont really understand what you want me to do :S ????
just downgraded to 1.6. Still rebooting but not as much. Not every minute anymore. It like every few minutes. Im at a loss here there must be something I can do. Warranty and paying to change the motherboard is not an option
I had the same problem, tried everything but my phone only worked when I was using it in cold places, or in front of a fan. The problem started to become worse gradually, it started playing games, then in a few minutes of light use... and then every minute. Had to flash to stock rom in front of a fan to use the warranty.
You cannot do much, unless you use the warranty you'll stand with a dead phone for now.
Isnt there a way I could like open up my phone and do something to it to make it work? There must be something out there that will work.
what if i put the phone and battery in the freezer for a day or a few. maybe it could at least stop the overheating for at leastt a few days? i wouldnt mind doing this every few days

It will work for a few minutes, once your start to use the phone, the battery will start to heat, and then it will reboot once it reach its threeshold.
I highly suggest you to try to repair it in any sony center, or at least check the price to fix it. As far as I know, you can't do anything to at least remedy it. You won't be able to use your phone well. I experienced it and tried everything it came to my mind to at least use the phone well for a few days before I gave up and sent it to the repair center.
Out of warranty and would be like 100 quid to get motherboard replaced. (sorry about caps lock) there must be something that no one has thought of
Of there is of course a problem with asking for solutions that no one has thought of....
Sorry for the cheap shot. I do have sympathy as I have the same issue, although to a much lesser extent. Got a new battery and it made no difference. Went into a phone shop today and had a chat. Although I was not 100% convinced about the guy in there he showed me another X10 that smelled the same as mine and he said it did reboot. Anyway for £15 he says he can reflash the stock ROM using a special box. He seemed convinced it was software related so I may give it a go. It is very strange that I can put the phone into xRecovery when the phone is rebooting and it is stable.
However I think your best bet is to sell your phone and get another. Not sure how much a spares/repairs X10 goes for but I can recommend the ZTE Blade as a good, cheap Android phone with a strong support over a MoDaCo. If you do this you should not be to much out of pocket.
dont really want a different phone. Lilke I said there must be something that someone knows :S
if theres no solution anyone knows, does anyone know where I can buy an xperia 10 PCB so I can dissassemble my phone and change the PCBs myself
Get insurance and lose the phone.
Hi Friends i have noticed that my SK17 A.K.A Mini pro acts weirdly from the day of purchase.
Even when i lock my screen by pressing power button,I see the LCB lighting up and showing me the lock screen and again turning off.
This happens frequently with few seconds or few min gap.
I suspect this would drain battery than usual.Please help me fix it.
visit the best Sony service center in your city, they'll be able to tell you something substantial.. or get you a replacement.

this is MY OWN video...
thanks for letting me know I'm not alone....
i sent it to the service center... the "smart" man there said it was a software issue, to which i did not agree...
we had a small quarrel then he took it and sad they'll troubleshoot it...
one week later i called they said it was ready
so i went to get it. and surprisingly enough, they HARD BRICKED IT !!!! :cyclops:
HOW IDIOTIC IS THAT ???
the man said they found out it was a touchscreen issue and replaced the touchscreen (which i believe is a total BS because the touchscreen WORKS even though i don't see what i'm doing but the screen accepts my touches as orders)
so he turned the phone ON and the sony ericsson logo came up, dimmed then bright, then it's supposed to dim again, right ???
NO , it stayed bright and phone wouldn't go past this step
he tried several times with no luck, so he had to take it back to try to fix it again but i think they will eventually replace the phone because they don't seem to KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING !!!
sorry to hear this .
I called service and they said they can return old andoid.factory.so it will not be ICS anymore but it will work.
God deal to me
I will let you know results

i went to them to get it after they restored old GB firmware.
the phone would not even start...
i believe they bricked it, because today i called to ask if it was fixed yet, and they said, no, it was sent to their main center in Alexandria.
which sounds like i'm getting a new phone !!

you either had a different issue or you just have to get your phone HOT enough to make it reappear
going tomorrow to get it from teh service center
i believe it won't be fixed...
just as i thought
they did NOT fix it,
but they REPLACED IT with a new device... i knew because 1st thing i did was check *#06# and found a different Serial Number
they told me they replaced he motherboard
after clarification, they meant they replaced THE WHOLE phone except the battery and bckcover
me too this happend to me too but i figured out i was using a bad mod for my ray and the problem dissapeard
i had no MODS
i had original STOCK GB .42 updated to .62 then to ICS .562 then to ICS .431
Hmm Reflash Firmware>? maybe it could work or try freeing up ram
Very similar to a problem I had: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvTFg2J0L4o
The blackout would happen as well as flickering. Not only that, but a weird clicking noise could be heard near the USB port, and the sound did not work at all. I sent it back and got a new one.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a fix. Flashing a new ROM will not solve the problem. It's a hardware issue. Only way to fix it is to send for repair or replacement. I tried everything when it happened to me and nothing worked.

Hello guys, i had stock 4.04 with locked bootloader until one month ago but my mobile starts restarting 3-4 times every time i powered it up. It was not anymore smooth and just using dolphin it lags a lot, the same goes for games.
Then i unlocked bootloader and i have been using Miui, aokp , cm9 and other epic roms from xda. But every time i flash a rom, is smooth and fast about 3-7 days and after that it restarts a lot and have lags just like before.
Do you have any suggestions?
What u install on your phone actually?
I have a same problem previously
When I go to service station they says, there is a problem with main board...
And they replace it...
And problem resolve
