I try:
1. SEUS - on step when i connecting phone with holding back button program not detected device (led is green)
2. Flashtool - shows error message:

Its not bricked.Just use seus/pc companion to get it working.Then use flashtool or x10 flasher and good idea to unlock bootloader....

Similar problem in my X10i since last 1 month
Hi,
I'm facing the same problem, only exception is even LOGO is missing...
Nothing works, just screen is dark black with no sign, only green light glows on pressing start button and occasional three red blinks, while charging.
I have used all good methods, SEUS (Update service); PC Companion; Flashtool (all versions); I have even flashed my phone using a box (technician did this for me)...
Nothing worked..even service centre guys refused to work on handset as there is no warranty..
I'm unable to use SEtool, as I could not find Test Point and how to attach them.
This is all started when i installed custom rom on my phone....
If it were me,Id try charging/replacing the battery.
You can even adapt a usb cable for charging and hook it up to the battery directly(when its still in the phone).
If it dont work then maybe faulty phone....

folks! I bricked my phone while updating it from seus and reason was dat MY USB CABLE WAS LOOSE AND MY PHONE GOT DISCONNECTED nw on restart it shows sony ericcson logo just for a second and den shows a pic where a triange(and inside it an exclamation mark is shown) is placed over a phone's picture.
I've tried seus and flashtool and both detect my phone as long as that sony ericson logo is shown and dats just for a second.
I was using cwm recovery and had made a backup of the custom rom. And nw i cant acces my cwm coz the se logo flashes so shortly dat i am nt able to open cwm.
NEED HELP GUYS!!!
Also i want to know dat can the sony ericsson service center help me..by software installation or by changing the hardware which stores the flash memory. Plz help me i'm nt ready to throw this phone away.
Thanks.

Thanks buddy.. But Flash tool does not detect my device. I've installed gordons gate.. But still.. I think Flash tool does not get enough time to detect my phone. I hear a usb connection sound and SE logo flashes for less then a second and i hear a usb disconnection sound den the ! is seen and den phone shuts down.

Don't give up yet. I know this problem. Uninstall Gordon's Gate. Install Sony Ericsson PC Companion (again if installed) and try using FlashTool again. This error on your phone means that the files are corrupted, maybe because a flash you tried was interuppeted unexpectedly. Your phone is not dead yet (probably your USB port has some problems and caused all this), it must be restorable.
Try and tell me if it worked.

No dont throw it just yet, I had almost the same. Ut unsure what caused it,it was 1st time flashing it, but spent 24hrs looking though solutions but it worked, similar to what lea sez...a new dl of sony comp and re-updated it using there latest u.d. Then used flashtool and reinstalled xrecovery with it as it stopped letting me open it..took a few trys but ws ok once sony companion recd my phone an reinstalled xrec.the update in sony comp I think wasnt in clear view its in the support stn..went back to stock 2.1.

Didnt worked man... So i had to choose the last option left ... the se service guyz... nw it back on the track.
Friends a few days ago i bricked my xperia mini while updating from SEUS. D cable went loose in the middle of the updation and SEUS showed an error. I restarted the phone and saw the SE logo blink just for half a sec and den the phone showed an exclamation mark inside a triangle, and finally went off. On rebooting same thing happened.
1. I tried SEUS, and it didnt recognized my device. Hence no gains.
2. I tried Flashtool and dat too didnt worked(pressing d back key and plugging usb).
Both these tools didnt detected my device... So i was forced to pay sony ericsson for a fresh update of my phone.
I was thinking is their another tool (dat SE service guyz use) or some other tool dat does not require the 'phone's back key and then usb' procedure.
Cox i wanna experiment with awesome Roms out there but dont want to pay SE a buck more.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm quite sure that if SEUS doesn't recognize your phone he asks you what device you have connected to the pc if you attempt to upgrade the firmware...

It just lets you continue to the installtion. It pop-ups the window of instructions needed to flash (if you press 'update phone')

and didn't it repair you phone?
SEUS, if it does not detect your device, asks which device you have installed. Once you select your device, it retrieves the necessary software and repairs your device. I used SEUS, right at the start of my Love Affair with Owains ROM, on Win7 running on Parallels on a Macbook Pro 15" Core2Duo... and it worked fine.

Dont forget the salt.
I tried to update my Xperia Neo, but someone managed to pull out the Usb cable when the phone began to flash. Now i'm facing a bricked phone, imposible to enter in Flash mode or Fastboot mode as I did before(no green led, no blue led, nothing). I pulled out the battery for 1 hour, rom prepared everything, but after I insert the usb cable by holding the back button, instead of flash mode, a "Sony Ericsson" screen apears without the green logo. I cant shut down the phone from the on/off button, cant flash, cant do nothing to get it back to live. When the "Sony Ericsson" screen apears, the pc makes that hardware connecting sound, and pc companion pops out telling me: "phone connected" and shows furter steps...but I can see only the "se" screen, no flashing or updating program can connect my phone no more. Please help me with a solution to be able to flash (repair) phone. I've tried: wotan, flash tool, FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick, Octopus suite, Omnius for SE, Se update, PC Companion, Seus, no results (can't connect into Flash mode, the phone cant be seen). I respected all the steps, flashed it succesfull several times. Thank you in advance, and have a great day! Sorry for long post and bad english.

Hey, 'm facing the same issue
Recently i upgraded my Xperia to "ThGo2 v16.0" from custom rom..
After some time the rom got unstable and restarted the phone, however it wouldn't boot up. Now i have completely black screen, all the time, with few red blinks
(I have tried all the solutions here:
1. SEUS : Says ur phone is already update and show Xperia arc in backgroud. No update available
2. PC companion: Tried all the tricks to start w/o connecting n all still the phone is not detected.
3. Flashtool, tried flashing it with 0.6.8 and 0.2.9.1
4. I have also used other tools like superclick, root / unroot and S1 tool (no of them worked)
Now, nothing is working with few red blinks and gree light..
Please help, my phone is converted into a black paper weight now....

FIX!
I had the same issue when I was experimenting with ROMs and Recoverys, but not to worry, Sony PC Companion 2.1 does the trick!
Download PC Companion 2.1 from the Sony Mobile website
1. When you download and open it, click start under Support Zone
2. Click start under Phone Software Update
3. When the window saying that a phone could not be found appears, click repair phone
4. A windows like this will appear, click continue to proceed with the repair of the firmware
NOTE: All data that is placed on the phone memory will be wiped but any data saved on the memory card will be spared
5. After clicking continue, a window like so will appear. Tick the box and click next to continue with repair!
6. Sony PC Companion 2.1 will now prepare the computer for the firmware update
7. Now choose your phone model, in this case it should be the Xperia X10 (X10). Select the phone and click Next!
8. Follow the prompts to repair your phone!
GOOD LUCK!!
Always fails for me.
All process end in fail
There must be a file I need to rename or something....
tried everything now...
I have tried everything by now, here i have attached a attachment of error i get while repairing my phone through SEUS..
only option is box flash, but i think its kind of risky...
Fail fail fail..... i'm getting hopeless wif my X10
Hey,
I did some re-search and got to know that somehow my X10 flashes as So-01C in some systems, i.e. xperia arc, even while updating ..........
Anyone here, knows other ways to flash through box other than technician, coz these technicians are real idiot they can crap your phone in 10 seconds, so its better to crap it yourself...
"alternative to box flash, please ???"
Try this
Had the same problem once, when my phone would not start at all, all I had to do was connect it to the PC Companion (2.0), at first it wouldn't repair but after a certain amount of tries it did the trick,
First: Make sure all your drivers are installed, if they were installed there should be no problem.
If they were not, the computer cannot identify your phone, try installing some other x10's drivers (cause your's is bricked I assume) that might do the trick aswell.
Open PC Companion > Support Zone > Phone Software Update (Start) > Follow Instructions > Repair
It might take several tries to get it right
If this doesn't work try the latest flashtool, it should do the trick !!
There must be something you are not doing right, else SEUS/Flashtool should have worked like a charm.
see i get this reply, when updating x10..
I have tried this like thousands of times, installing roms and then removing them and repairing the phone, but this time it has gone over my head........
Hello, I have a sonyericsson xperia X10 suddenly stopped turning, i tried to repair it with the FlashTool, the flash process its ok , but at the end of the process and turn it , vibrates only once and not on the lcd (black), and when i reconnect to the PC, the phone is in flash mode again., pls which files or Fw additional need install first for repair?? thks for your time pd i use the fw x10i generic stock and pc companion not repair it display a error in upload the sw to phone.
Please use search tab all is there.Take your time and read.
thks for your time, itried all methods mentioneh in the posts but nothing work, for this reason i need help thks...
I installed a Rom that went wrong and had to use flashmode with sony's update program, not sure how it's called these days. I if you install that and plug it into the pc holding down the Back button, it recognizes it and will all you what you want to do. Select restore (or something similar). It'll restore it back to 2.3.3. After that you can install xRecovery again with flash tool.
Be aware that this worked for my semi bricked X10i, no guarantee it'll work for you ofcourse.......good luck
