Help my phone doesnt turn on! - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I had a MiniCM7 ROM without a unlockable bootloader and custom kernel. I wanted to go back to an official ROM and i flashed the 2.1.1.A.0.6 ftf file with flashtool. When i try to turn it on, the screen turns on for a few seconds without showing the 'Sony Ericsson' and the phone reboot doing the same thing continously until the battery drains. Can someone help please ?

You should probably have done a factory-reset/wipe-cache/wipe dalvik-cache in recovery before you flashed.
Try the repair option in SEUS or PC Companion

But in the flashtool it has checked the wipe cache and data option

That may be, but somehow it failed, so do a repair with SEUS or PC Companion.

mate,
Its clearly posted that this theme is for Beta3 only.. if ur using 2.1, then your not using Beta3 because its for 2.2 froyo by Z.. U might want to check our what u flash in ur phone before doing it..
Niwei, if SEUS is not working, u might just have to FLASH ur phone again using the flasher made by B4nary.. find it in the other threads.. might help in ur reading.. Since ur already using xrecovery and ur phone is already rooted, try to flash beta3 un your phone then if u dont like 2.2, reflash using SEUS.. hope this helps..

There is also a version for 2.1 as stated in the title and in the thread, but if they've flashed the wrong one then obviously it wont work.

Partition? ext* system?
I think give xrec another shot. Keep pressing back key repeatedly when "SE" logo is displayed. Works for me everytime. Btw which ROM you on?
If that doesn't works then use flash tool 0.2.6 by bin4ry and use the guide by androxyde to re-install xRecovery.

Correct me if I am wrong. But doesnt Xrecovery have a Factory Reset option ?
Aside from that, I thought I had bricked my phone a week or so ago when Z released Beta 4. I could boot up to the SE Logo and go no further, couldnt even get into xrecovery. However, give this a shot, it worked for me to get it into flash mode so I could do a recovery on SEUS..
- Pop you battery out
- Connect USB Cord without batter in.
- Reinsert Batter while holding Back button
- The Screen should light up white for a split second but go back off.
- The Green Light at the top of the phone should stay on now
That should put you into Flash Mode for SEUS. The just do a recovery.
Yes, you will loose all of your information but hey, atleast you arn't buying another phone.

Next time, read the post cleary and don't just think you know what your doing.
If the FW Version doesnt match you can lock your phone up pretty good.
If the Base Band doesn't match up, then you can mess up your Service and possibly put your phone into a repeating boot cycle.

[Q] Installed Cyanogen CM7 - Boot loop - Please help, desperate.

My x10 is stuck in a boot loop after I flashed the ROM.
How do i stop this from happening? I really like the look of the ROM over my current one.
Please help.

flash baseband which is included in the package and you should be fine

Same Issue I think
I think I am having the same issue but when my x10 boots it goes to unlock screen and then I have this loop with "The application ADW.Launcher(process.android.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. The device then flashes the Cynogen loading screen and goes back to the unlock screen where I get the same message and the same loop. My xrecovery doesnt work and I cant seem to get the phone to use the SE update manager because it also says its up to date and doesnt provide a repair option. Can anyone help with this? I dont care which android os I go to at this point as long as it will work.
You probably need to use flashtool to flash the .52 baseband fix. Unless you have .52 already.
If that doesnt work, try flashing 2.1 totally over again with flashtool.

Can someone link me a guide as to how to flash the ROM with flash tool?
I flashed the baseband with it but I used xrecovery for the ROM itself because I could not work out how to use the flash tool.
I'll try reflashing the baseband when I get home tonight.

To get out of the bootloop just flash back to 2.1 and start over again. And make sure to follow the instalation instructions given by the dev when flashing the rom.
I still can't work it out.
The ROM is in a .zip file and the flash tool doesent seem to be picking it
up and when I unzip it there are no selectable files.

Yeah, that's what I did the first time.
I just tried it again. Same problem.
Phone turns on, boots, sits on home screen for a few seconds then restarts.
Why would this happen?
EDIT: I managed to check the baseband version int he few seconds the phone was on, it says it is unknown. Would this cause this problem?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
The ftf files you need are on the second post. Just put the ftf file in the firmware section of the flashtool then flash it and follow the on screen instructions.
With baseband unknown go to the app on your phone called dev tools then go to bad behaviour and crash system sever when the phone reboots you should have signal and baseband will no longer be unkown.
I tried that, It keeps telling me I have my old Cyanogen mod for 2.2 installed when I do it.
In the process of running SEUS, hopefully it puts me back to 2.1

No, i dont think that is the cause of the rebooting cause ii get that a lot but the phone never reboots on me, what kernel are you on. Cause a lot of the custom kernels reboot when the screen is off or when you have the cpu up too high.

[Q] Help- Xpiria mini st15i constantly rebooting!

Hi,
As of yesterday, just out of nowhere, my Xpiria mini started randomly rebooting itself in a loop...at first it happened once every few hours and then the phone went back to normal, but now it just happens non-stop, and i can't use the phone at all!
some background:
my phone was rooted and the bootloader unlocked, as a result of solving an overheating issue a few months ago..
so, at first i thought that maybe upgrading the software will solve the rebooting problem, but i couldn't install the upgrade version...i guess because i already messed with the phone in the past it won't let me upgrade it in a "normal" way (tried via pc-companion and via the phone itself).
anyway, i guess i have 2 questions...1. how do i solve the rebooting problem? 2. how do i upgrade the software?
(i don't know much about phones etc, so if you could give me a detailed step-by-step explanation it would be great, and would save many of my stupid questions
please help, my phone is completely useless at the moment...

Are you really sure the battery is okay? Maybe this is the reason? Because if it's bricked up (it=the battery) you can only boot when the usb cable is inserted and you won't get any other reactions...
Maybe you can try another one from a friend and report?

[Q] X10 stuck on SE logo, flashing stock doesnt help

Hi guys,
I had a rooted X10 on stock ROM, however it started to lag recently and I've decided to restore it to factory settings.
Restored to factory settings, phone restarted and stuck on SE logo.
Flashed stock firmware with Flashtool, flashing went successfully, but still stuck on SE logo!
I dont remember the bootloader unlock status neither baseband version, its my mothers phone... For sure, I removed SD card. Tried flashing 3 times, no luck.
What should I do? Thanks in advance for all that will reply...

[Q] Bootloop caused by Removal of battery at Titanium uninstall

Hello,
I did an insane mistake. I successfully rooted my neo L. In order to backup apps and remove bloatware, I installed Titanium Backup.
But during uninstall of bloatware by Titanium I forgot to uncheck some crucial apps, and in panic, I accidentally removed my battery.
And then after I inserted it and restarted, I got stuck in the bootloop.
Symptoms-
1. No LED blinks
2. Cant get into recovery mode (power button press + repeatedly pressing up volume button)
3. Repears after SONY logo is shown.
I tried the following using flashtool, with no success-
1. Reflashed the "MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel" and "Neo L_4.0.4_MT25i Kernel Only"with using DoomLord's root toolkit in between..
2. Reflashed with "MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel" and "MT25i_4.1.B.0.631_KERNEL ONLY" with DoomLord's root toolkit in between.
Can somebody please help me???
