Hi, ok so about a month ago i let the phone discharge completly i was on wolf's rom,and when i got home i put it on charge let it like 10 - 15 minutes and then try to turn it on,but all i got was a vibration and a green light flashing once,and then got a new phone arc s and today i kinda miss my x10 xD so i took the battery out and give it 2..3 minutes to rest and then try again ....nothing(i let it another 1:30 minutes to charge ), afterthat i flashed 2.1 official with flashtool clean no mod's the flashtool didnt give me any error but when i try to start ..the phone did the same thing 1 vibrate and green light once blink and now when i put it on charge the phone has the green light on like 5 minute then it turns off,if i take the battery out and put it on charge the green light apears...i tried another battery and the phone has the same problem.. so i came here if anyone know what is wrong with him (i installed SEUS > press repair > said my phone has the latest software,and pc companion the same) (sorry for my english)
Later edit : i am thinking to try unlock bootloader if that dosent give me any what so ever blinking screen or logo or error ... imma going to buy a JTAG cable and try that /// what should i do?? becouse i just want to experiment on this phone cuz i have my arc s and i am good with him xD
Later later edit : ok so i found out the problem..that was i tried to flash 1.6 in the past and that f**ked my boot some how so today i went at a service who has Jtag box ..(is kinda expensive to buy one just for my phone ..no worth it) for x10 an the man fix my phone in like 10 minutes so everyone who has one of the one of the following problmes only jtag can fix it : 1 if u flashed a stock rom and u got only a green light blink and a virbate and then nothing happens 2 if u get a green light and the phone is stuck on virbate and nothing happens..and btw if u get three blink red lights..u need to charge the phone or the battery hope it helps somebody
because i am happy now with the x10 working like new xD (dunno what is the rulles here but u can delete my topic.thx) hi hi only me post here
Since you solved your problem you should update your post from 'x10 doesn't power on' to something like 'SOLVED: X10 doesn't power on '
I also had same no power green light, had to use older flashtool and flash stock generic 2.1. It took 2-3 times for flash to take
from XDA app on my X10S v8.3 on DooMKernel6 @ 1152Mhz

Iam having exactly same problem! I updated my phone using SEUS and, when i started it... its just vibrating. I tried evrything like you.. with no success. My phone is just useless since 3 days. Please let me know how you fixed it.. it be a great help since i dont want to buy another phone. thanks in advance!!
I have a similar problem, use flashtool with firmware R1FA16, my phone working again
So, sort of long story, i'll cut it short
-Got an old X10, had stock 2.3.3
-Rooted it
-Did not unlock bootloader, got kinda scared.
-Tried to install FeraLab custom ROM, it failed probably because of sdcard permissions; i accidentally wipe /system /data /cache
-stuck at first Sony Ericsson screen
-Somehow managed to flash a 2.1 stock rom with flashtool, after an hour of different combinations of enterring flash mode and pulling the battery
-Tried to install FeraLab again, this time it went through
-After install, rebooted, phone shut down during boot up process
-Will not turn on at all. Even when plugged into a PC, wall, not plugged in, pulling battery, etc.
I think what happened is that FeraLab needed a newer baseband than the 2.1 stock rom had. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this sucker to even turn on? Not a single LED is on when plugged in, giving me the impression that it's not charging.
If the battery has drained out, it might take some time before it kicks in and indicates that it is charging.
If the ROM has failed somehow, it might not show that it is charging at all, but might be charging.
Either way: Let it charge "blindly" for a while, and see what happens.
Once it does boot up to some level or shows life-signs, let it charge fully before you'l attempt a ROM flash.
The flash/recovery mode needs a full battery, and reason is that the external power isn't used even when connected while in flash/recovery mode.
If you happen to be in bad luck, and the ROM failed as a result of a drained battery, you might have to charge the battery externally. Use an external battery charger made for 3.6 volts Lithium Polymer batteries, and make sure to align the + and - terminals properly.
I can recommend the multicharger from Powerbase, called C-734U:
http://www.powerbasehk.com/product.php?id=148
Using it myself to charge the X10 battery, as well as other batteries from other devices I have.
EDIT:
(For some reason, powerbase has taken back that it'll charge Lipo batteries, but when I bought mine, it was described as a li-ion, li-poly and Ni-MH charger, and it't ability to charge li-poly batteries was the very one reason to why I bought it.
I suspect PowerBase does not want to take responsibility if anything happens to the li-poly-batteries, as they are known to be more dangerous than other types.)
I've left it on the wall charger all night, no response or anything. Luckily, I bought a new battery a few days ago, so when that comes in, hopefully it will be charged enough for this thing to boot.
Do me a favour are u able to take screebshot of settings, about phone menu and post it here? Need to see ur baseband and kernel

Yeah, i'm not sure what he expected. But, good news! Now for some reason my phone started blinking red whenever I tried to turn it on! I guess the battery completely ran out or something. It also blinks every now and then when plugged in, so I guess it's charging. The previous owner of this phone said that it had some battery problems, so that's why I ordered that new battery. I'll let it charge for awhile and let you guys know what happens.
Okay, after getting my new battery, the phone will still not turn on. I think i've figured out two behaviors:
1. If the battery is nearly completely out of charge, it will flash a red light
2. If the battery has charge, it will not do anything at all.
Anyone know how to fix this?
While trying to turn on the phone, after long-press power button, do you get a flash from status led & short vibration?

No vibration, the red LED flashes three times, and that is , as I said before, what happens when the battery seems to not have any charge. If I have a charged battery it does absolutely nothing.
Have you removed sim & sd card and tried. I know it sounds dumb but when I flashed a bad kernel I had to try to connect flash mode like 10 times. Finally I left the phone unplugged from pc, started flashtool and started flashing. I only put battery in phone just before holding back key. I never connected USB until tool said to dis-connect phone and connect in flashmode.
i wish you luck, I know how I felt when it went wrong

Try to flash any latest kernel via flashtool . Go for doomkernel . I think its software issue . Try this first .
Almost same here please help..
Last night battery ran out of charge & phone switched off.. then i plugged the charger it doesn't charge.. after some time i tried turning on.. Vibrates with the green LED but nothing happens then..
Note: This is not the 1st time i'm letting my phone drain, but facing this problem for the 1st time..
Rom : Spikelabs GB Gaming rom
Kernel : Ferakernel v23 beta6
I tried another battery, charger, data cable.. Tried flashing stock & spikelabs kernel., but of no use..
Any help is greatly appreciated..
Thanks in advance.. :good:
Something like that happened to me not long ago!
I was trying to flash some ROMs and I messed up then my phone wouldn't turn on!
But Miracously, I could flash a Stock 2.3.3 which fixed the problem!
At first, I used Sony PC Companion, which helped a lot- and after I screwed it for the second time, I used FlashTool-
I don't know if this was helpful, but I hope your x10 will be fixed soon!
yeah try the PC Companion first, it helped me too a couple of weeks ago
No luck...
Hi friends..
Tried to repair using PC companion, but was able to connect only in flash mode, unable to proceed software update..
I previously tried flashing stock GB using flashtool thrice. Still couldn't switch on the phone.. What else may i try..
Thanks friends..

Went to 3 service shops at - Ritchie street, Chennai. They simply said harware issue (Short in board) and gave back the phone.
Now given at a better service centre. Will get back on monday it seems. Will update the status friends..
Thanks..
Here also they said the same reason friends.. Short in board..
Is there any way i could recover the phone???
Hi there. First of all, sorry about my english, but i'm spanish
I was reading a lot, and i cant find a solution to my phone. It sudently becomes a brick just when charging (with anothers phone charger) and the battery was lower than 10%
It doesn't work, and don't response to any of all solutions i've read (Take out SIM, SD card, remove battery and wait... ) no way... Screen never come back to iluminate again. Just, when pushing power buttom, the phone's vibrates.
So tired of the brick, i've arrived at this page. And I read this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792
And try to become my phone back...
At least, the phone enter in flashmode, and i can flash with flashtools... but the phone never come back... just the brick
I tryed to flash with the Xperia_2011_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file and OK
Afther that, take out the USB and flash again with one ROM i get from here:
Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i)
4.0.2.A.0.42 - http://www.mediafire.com/?hevz3x5w9pqt24q
4.1.B.0.431 - http://www.mediafire.com/?j0bdx06zz5skvzt
But the phone never works. One time afther flashing with 4.0.2.A.0.42 i noticed, that trying to power on the phone, the red led shyne 3 times, and thats supposed to be the battery. But i don't know if the battery now is charged. I've left it hours charging, and hours too to the USB...
Supposedly, i cant flash without battery in the phone, but flashtools finish correctly
So... any idea?
There is something i can do?
Thank all of you who read this!
Its probably battery empty. recharge battery or get a friends and try

First make sure that your battery is really fine. Try another one.
If that fails, see if you can get your device into flash mode?(Switched off+Vol Down + USB cable)
If yes, try flashing a custom ROM. For example, download CyanogenMod from here, use Flashtool (guide) to flash the kernel provided in the downloaded ROM's ZIP file. Then, boot again into Clockword Mod Recovery(Keep pressing Vol DOwn button while boot or google for how to enter recovery for your phone). Copy the downloaded Cyanogenmod ZIP to SD card and install it via ClockwordMod recovery.
See if the above works.

Try booting up your phone with the USB connector plugged in the PC (maybe it will charge the battery then)

At least my phone (LWW WT19i does not work without the battery with Flashtool. I'm not sure about your device.
Anyway try flashing a custom ROM like I said. Try unlocking bootloader first though from here
U said that red light show when try to on the phone.
Just try another battery.. It should work

You said LED blinks 3 times so if the color of LED is RED then it indicates empty battery..
Hey, my problem wasnt the same as yours, but it helped for me when i got only service logo on screen.
On this link you find a "Play_v1.01_TA brick fix UPDATE" zip.
Download, unpack and flash it.
