Hi,
while I was doing a restore to original se firmware build 0.62 with WONTANSERVER, but I have received 2 error and now my xperia mini doesn't start. When I switch on my smartphone I can only see an icon of the smartphone with a yellow exclamation point into a danger signal.
How can I do to reset it into original firmware?
You may try the 'repair' option in SE PC-Companion Software or Update via SEUS or follow one of the 'reset' tutorials found here (one is atm 4 threads below)
Thanks, i'have tried with pccompanion but it recognized an unofficial software (I had installed a prerooted version with build 0.69).
Could you link me the correct toutorial to follow? I'm searching it but i can't find....thanks
Install correct firmware, not a prerooted version as it includes modifications in system, which seems, that are detected by the PC Companion.

Try #3 in this tutorial using the ftf from #XX.1 in the same post.
Yes, it is what I want to do.
Before the error 12152 of wontan server i had installed the prerooted verison (build 0.69) that I want to delete and reset all to factory settings (build 0.62 original firmware).
But now i don't know how can I do...
could you help me?

Would anyone be kind enough to upload the SEUS or decrypted firmware files to use with the FlashTool for the new 2.1.1.A.0.6 update? updating through SEUS is no good for me so I need to flash using Bin4ary's Flashtool.
So anyone, Please? I could even donate a little for your effort

Very funny I'm asking for the specific 2.1.1.A.0.6 update, that thread is old and the downloads included are for an old firmware, believe me I actually FLASHED my phone to 2.1 using the UK provided in that thread. I suggest you read the title and the OP before trolling

What I'm saying is that flashing with any firmware in that thread gives me a 2.0.A.0.504 build but I need de 2.1.1.A.0.6 to install CM Floyo, unless I'm doing something wrong? maybe you could help me . Updating through SEUS won't work for me, for some unknown reason after running the update service my phone keeps asking me for a Network Unlock Code rendering it useless as an actual phone lol
So the FlashTool is my last hope I guess :/ Anyone?
You can either use the xRecovery, then make a restore on 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware from xrecovery.

Didn't think of that... I'll try it out and see what happens
No luck... I even tried decrypting SEUS files myself but I still keep running into the same issue with the 'Unlock Code' meh, I give up.
Would anyone PLEASE upload the decrypted files for a U20a with the 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware?
I've installed FW 2.1.1.A.0.6 on my u20a and it is now showing U20i and 3g not working... CM6 is working like a charm but NO 3G! Now i'm trying to figure out how to make my 3g work Ideas?
Edit: Downgraded firmware to U20a again (older version) and now I have 3G working on CM6 but now I'm afraid about instability. 1 hour up and everything is ok. No reboots yet.
It shouldn't give you any problems, I'm pretty much running on the same setup without any glitches (so far).

hi everyone!
I've got a problem with my phone, becouse it stocks at SE screen and restarts!
I now how to reflash using update service but its not working it says NO Update Fund and its closing please help
If SEUS can't help you should use PC Companion. I know this program isn't very good but i had simular problem and when SEUS couldn't help me I use PC Companion. You must download the newest version or upgrade old version to new. You're from poland so i write some words in PC Companion in polish.
First click "Sekcja Support Zone" and it should start download files (1 mb i think). Next click "Rozpocznij" under "Aktualizacja oprogramowania telefonu" then click "napraw" and follow the instruction.
Good Luck
but pc companion says me the same

What do You mean by "other models"?
In Flashtool you need specific *.ftf file for yor cell modell
for example file for X10 mini won't work on X10 mini pro
Remember to reinstall the original kernel also.
No Need for do any thing,just install SE Update Service and install original Os.

Are you on custom kernel?
sent from my u20i using xda premium
When SEUS says you already have the latest software, it will give you the option of reinstalling it anyway.
Basically, it's saying there's no update available. It is an Update Service after all. But it will always just let you reinstall the latest update.

Well, thats the problem. It sais that there no download available, even though i tried the "repair" option which should a simple reinstall.
is this maybe a kernel issue?

i´m kinda new to flashing, so sorry for being a n00b.

Hello guys
I´m a newbie in this new phone... i owned an HTC HERO that i was completely good on rooting, installing ROMS etc...
But i´ve got this phone now.
Did a lot of research, read a lot of things but i´m not sure. Hope you guys can help me.
My Xperia mini pro is on its stock(factory) rom:
android 4.0.4
baseband 8x55A-AAABQOAZM-203028G-72
2.6.32.9 kernel
version 4.1.B.0.431
I´ve tried a lot of apps to root it(superoneclick, z4...) but none of them worked.
I´ve read that to root it, it should downgrade to another android version, root and them upgrade.
Is that correct? Or this device with this version of android and baseband can be rooted?
Thank you
Sergio.
It can't be rooted as it is now.
Either unlock the bootloader and install a pre-rooted kernel, or downgrade to GB and root it following THIS tutorial.
Also, if you read it already, I don't really understand why you are still asking how to do it

ICS Firmware is impossible to root directly so far , you need to downgrade your phone to an older GB firmware if don't want to unlock bootloader here's the tutorial it's working 100%
Ok.. understanding more now...
which one is "safer" downgrading or custom kernel direct?

It's up to you .... if you want to unlock bootloader than only downgrading method is possible DO NOT flash a kernel with locked bootloader !

It's not bad if you try to install custom kernel with locked bootloader. The installation won't succeed as custom kernel has no official signature, so the installation won't be done.

hit thanks if i helped you!!!
I used the dwn gradng process,,,nw rooted.
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
i advice yhu Unlock BL first using Test Point Method den install Custom Pre-Rooted Kernel or get a good Pre-Rooted ROM!!!
Test Point Method:- http://androidflip.com/unlock-xperia-phones-bootloader-without-losing-drm-data-track-id-working/
i used dat for my mini pro.....
Both methods are interesting......
Anyway, thank you very much guys, really.
Will try any of them soon.
Hi again Guys,
I need an info here.
I´ll downgrade the mini pro to GB and root.
After that, should i flash the ICS via flashtool or can i update it from SUS/Pc Companion or OTA?
In which case from SUS/PCCompanion or OTA i will loose the root?
Or i should ignore it and update via Flashtool?
I did not understand that part of the guide(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695514)
try to make in a few words(correct me if i´m wrong):
Download GB firmware and flash using flashtool
Root via Doomlord
The part III(preparation to root 4.0.4) ok.
After this, this is my doubt. Should i Flash ICS from flashtool or update it by SUS/PCCompanion/OTA ?
Flash GB.
Root it.
Run push_local.prop.cmd
Upgrade to ICS:
a) Using Flashtool -> Make sure you don't Wipe data. uncheck that box.
b) Using PC Companion / SUS -> Make sure you choose not to wipe data, too.
Run the other file which name I don't remember
That's all
ICS is not available via OTA.
Doesn't matter how you update, as long as you do the 01-....cmd file before updating.
If you use Flashtool, make sure to uncheck Wipe Data option.
Hi,
first I read the tutorials and followed them but I was not far away from bricking my phone.. Here is what I did:
Installed Flash Tool 0.9.5.0 and drivers
Started Flash Tool and selected Flashmode, started phone in Flashmode
"ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CODE="0076";ERR_DYNAMIC=" Flash too small for current partitioning"
Device didn't boot, showed triangle with "!" inside..
Searched the internet..
Flashed again with checkbox "Exclude Partition" checked..
Flashed successfully..
Disconnected Phone, powered on - short vibration but black screen
Restored original firmware with SEUS - now booting again but with Android 2.3..
Anyone an idea how to install ICS??
Thanks in advance

OK tried Sony Update Service and PC Companion and update check on the phone.. It says allways that I'm on the newest firmware but I'm still on GB.. Thats the reason why I wanted to flash it the manual way.. On the internet it was said around 20th of august that the update is rolling out
Can it be so hard? Flashed several phones before but failing hard on Xperia P..
So current situation, newest GB but no idea how to get official ICS working (always partition error with Flash Tool and black screen when flashing with exclude partition..)..
Huge mistake on my side!! The phone is XPERIA U not P as I thought.. Shame on me.. Guess I have to wait a few days more until the update arrives.. Sorry for my mistake and thanks for the help!
Small sideeffect, we now know that flashing XPERIA P rom on XPERIA U doesn't work
