Phone bootloops when turning it on while it's connected to charger. - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I must have done something wrong during the root procedure, now my phone works fine and is rooted but for some reason if it's turned off, I connect it to the cable, it just bootloops and doesn't even charge. If I turn it on and connect the charger after, it works.
I think it could be fixed easily by restoring one of the files, and since I'm rooted, I think it would be easily doable with Root Explorer.
Which file is responsible for charging and stuff like that?

[Q] Xperis S Boot Loop

Got an Xperis S yesterday and followed the official procedure to unlock the bootloader. Everything went fine, said OKAY at the end of the process but now my phone is stuck in a boot loop!
I can get into fastboot and it is responsive, but flashtool mode with the green led also reboots before it will connect to my computer.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

you need to install the fastboot and download mode drivers really quickly.
first grab flashtool, and use the flashtool's driver folder's executable to install the "Correct" download mode drivers. your device will reboot after a few seconds because it does not detect flashtool, but at least you can install the drivers properly, so next time when you do download mode again on your phone, it will stay there.
then re-install the flashtool firmware.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Ive got the drivers sorted now and flashtool working, and have flashed the latest generic firmware for my device. Everything went fine, but still experiencing the same problem.
Could relocking the bootloader fix the problem, and if so is there an ftf file for it. The only download I've found comes as a zip (unless I'm being thick here)
Thanks again

What have you downloaded and what (and in which order) have you flashed?
I've downloaded and flashed the stock firmware here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1537296
Still the same issue, doesn't boot any further than the Sony splash screen.
Seems the issue with downloads coming as zip files was a windows issue, downloaded it through os x as a ftf and I'm gonna have another go at flashing that...

Yes, getting the ftf file will probably sort out things
Any other possibilities? I've relocked the bootloader and flashed the ftf from the previous link again and still no luck...
same here... cannot get it work after unlocking...
even relocked it, then updated with SEUS, but it doesnt want to boot...
I never found a solution I'm afraid, Sony wanted me to send it in for repair. Luckily i work at the place I got it from so just got it replaced there.
Sorry I can't be of more help, it's worried me too much to try it again at the moment though with this new one...

help! my mini pro stucked on sony ericsson logo

hey guys, this is my first time i would say i bricked my phone. i need someone to help me my phone has been in 'coma' for nearly 2 days now.
so this happened when i try to apply this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306044 and after i carelessly copied framework-res.apk to system/framework using root explorer without setting the correct permissions, my phone automatically shuts off and try to restart but it failed, it stucked on the big sony ericsson logo and 'sony ericsson' text.
i have pull out the battery hundred times and try to reboot my phone normally but it didnt worked it still stucked on the sony ericsson logo.
so can anyone help me please...
what tools/application should i get to fix this?
first of all, i dont want to wipe/lose/factory reset my phone memory data because that would make my phone contacts gone which i never ever want to happen. so please is it possible to backup my contacts somewhere else if wiping is the answer at least??
okay i took a lot of time to type this and hoping someone give me an answer
Hi, what is your model no? and you rooted it?
Sent from my ST15i using xda premium
i use sk17i mini pro as mentioned above and yes it is obviously rooted
Congratulations, you have felt the power of customizing Android for the first
Actually, one way to fix this now, is to get back to fully stock firmware.
The second way would be to unlock bootloader, install a custom kernel, enter recovery and use Fix Permissions option. Unfortunately, not all Recoveries have this, only some versions of ClockworkMod Recovery. I have used many kernels on my LWW and only some of these included this option and I can't remember which one had, which not.

If contacts is too important for you and you have no backups, then go for the 2nd way - Unlock bootloader and install a custom kernel, which offers the Fix Permissions option.
I will check the Update Service, if Repair option will erase user data or not, currently updating my phone.
EDIT: Yes, removes all data.

If you can access flashmode, then your okay. Just flash stock firmware.
Will check Flashtool option.
Yep, you're correct, Flashtool has option to not wipe user data.

Flashmode - Turn off phone, connect USB cable to your computer, hold down Volume DOWN button and connect USB cable to your phone.

plz help me thanks in advance gents
Actually, i think you could've salvaged your phone without the need of flashing it... If you had access to CWM, you could've put framework file into zip file and flash it with CWM. It helped me once when i got stuck in bootloop after failed installation of a mod

its very easy to recover your phone if you got bootloop or stuck at sony ericsson logo. dont sweat.
first of all you need a stock .ftf firmware downloaded. any .ftf stock firmware .58/62/42 or whatever as long as it is stock.
then download and install flashtool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351309
then put your downloaded .ftf firmware at c:/program files/flashtool/firmwares/"your downloaded .ftf firmware"
then open flashtool and click on the lightning icon. and choose flashmode.
then press volume down button, while you do that connect your phone to pc using usb then flash the firmwares. then boom your phone back to life

[Q]Boot Loop in E10

Hi,
I checked the forum and try those and it didnt work.
This is the story. i try to install a custom rom to my friend's xperia x10 mini. I unlocked the bootloader. Rooted and installed a kernel Jelly Bean Mini projects kernel. Also install the apk for CWM. After i flash the JB Mini Kernel i stuck at the JB Mini logo. Entering the CWM does not worked. Then i paniced and flashed the custom kernel. Then this time it is not opened only stuck at the SE logo. After that E10i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Sony Ericsson.ftf firmware and flashed via flash tool. This time is stuck in the boot logo loop. It didnt give a chance to flash another kernel again. Opening and resetting again. ALso PC Companion Repair doesnt work because it get disconnect on doing it.
Also i tried home screen and power button to reset and then try to flash mode and it didnt allow me to do it. Do you guys any suggestion. How can i get rid of it and get back to normal.
All helps will be appreciated. Thanks.

yes it will ask you to connect in flash mode.... while the pop up screen shows the image of phone. connect your via usb and press home+back key it will hard reboot the phone, once it off keep holding the back button you will see led turning green and it will go into flash mode and you follow the on screen instructions
let me know if it works

Make sure you're talking about the right model phone, the Xperia Mini and Xperia x10 Mini are different phones. If you have the x10 Mini, then fastboot won't work at all.
Yes, CWM is available by repeatedly pressing the back-button when the kernel-logo shows, and it is included in ALL custom kernels for the x10 mini, just not on stock, so if you flash a custom kernel it is already available without any further action on your part.

Hi,
U really.have my attention there. My friend have xperia x10 mini. I tried to install a custom rom on her device. But I messed things up. Unlocked the bootloader and installed jb mini.kernel and stucked on boot.logo. Then I flash custom kernel again now its stuck.on.boot logo like a loop. Seus repair wont work because it disconnects simultaneously. Also flashing a kernel didint work either. I hope somebody helps me to recovery the device. After that somehow I can install custom rom.
Thanks. I really appreciated.

Yes, the JB kernel requires you to format the /system, /data and /cache partitions in CWM on first boot, otherwise you get stuck, and you'll be unable to install the JB ROM. (Mind you, if it's version 4 of Stelios97's JB Kernel, that's been reported as not working at all)
(Not sure if you're doing your friend a favour with JB just yet, not if she wants to use her phone like she does now, you might be better off with MiniCM7)
Make sure your batter has a decent amount of charge in it, and try to flash this with flashtool, it's stock firmware that should get the phone back working properly.
After that, you can try again with the custom kernel and ROM.

Yes, the JB kernel requires you to format the /system, /data and /cache partitions in CWM on first boot, otherwise you get stuck, and you'll be unable to install the JB ROM. (Mind you, if it's version 4 of Stelios97's JB Kernel, that's been reported as not working at all)
(Not sure if you're doing your friend a favour with JB just yet, not if she wants to use her phone like she does now, you might be better off with MiniCM7)
Make sure your batter has a decent amount of charge in it, and try to flash this with flashtool, it's stock firmware that should get the phone back working properly.
After that, you can try again with the custom kernel and ROM.

hmmmzzz, sounds like your battery is empty... leave it to charge, preferably from the wall-charger.
It *should* turn on, show the white Sony Ericsson text and then a battery...

If the ftf i sent you flashed without problem, you have the latest firmware from sony, so SEUS can't update your phone from that. What does it do when you connect it to the wallcharger?

[Q] Xperia p restarting

Hi everyone
a few days ago i have unlocked the bootloader on my xperia p following the official sony instructions.
After that i downloaded and flashed the sliding xp v5 kernel
Everything worked perfect and i wanted to install a custom rom, and i thought that the vision rom would be perfect.
I installed the vision rom v2 in cwm recovery and everything seemed perfect, i like the rom and everything is good but i have a few problems :-/
First i had the problem that sometimes when the screen locks and turns off,when i press the unlock button the screen wont turn on,i can hear that the phone works when i try to take a ss i hear the soind,but the screen wont turn on until i hard restart the phone :-/
The second problem is that the phone just restarts itself randomly sometimes :-/
And the last thin is that when i go in the dialer to call someone it happebs alot of times that the phone lags a lot there and it happens often that when someobe is calling me or when i call someone that it lags and the phone freezes :-/
Can someone tell me why is this happening,because of the kernel or the rom?
and what should i do to fix it,if possible i would like to keep all the settings which i made because i allready personalized it much....
Thanks to everyone in advance

First that came in my mind is that this kernel and the rom are not for eachother - so try to flash munjeni's kernel and the rom again and try it.
Before that flash stock rom via flash tool to make clean install.

Thanks for your quick reply,right now the internet at my home isn't working so i will have to wait before i try it.
I have never used flashtool before so i want to ask you if anything from my phone will be deleted like apps,contacts or something else?
I have also made a backup using cwm before i installed this rom,would it be ok if i just restore the backup,then flash the new kerbel and after that the vision rom again?

First of all the flash stock rom you need to put the ftf file in Flashtool/firmwares
Then connect the device in flashmode and flash rom (device switched off and to enter flashmode just do vol- and put usb in).
When flashing official stock rom as much as i know you will lose data, and its better to have clean install.
If you flash munjeni's kernel and the rom you want, and if you restore the back up that will flash the old boot.image too, i mean the old kernel and that is not wanted.

Yeah buddy, its all in Sola section.

[Q] Sola kills some processes on start up, phone can't be used

Hi guys,
I've been using my Sola for over a year now and I like the phone, i got the CM9 build from freeXperia on it (FXP 210 CM 9 PEPPER) with cwm on it and loved it.
Two weeks ago trouble began when the phone was very unreliable, it rebooted several times a day, sometimes I noticed that the phone got very warm when rebooting.
I found out that there was no diskspace left, so I deleted some of the playlists on Spotify that I downloaded and that gave me back about 2 gb of internal room.
Since yesterday some processes where quitting and this happened a couple of times (it was the google media process), this morning after being on the adapter for the night the problem was still there. So I rebooted the phone (normal reboot) and then the trouble really kicked in.
When I boot now I see a message stating "Android is being updated, starting apps" then I see my normal lockscreen and the errors start rollling in.
The only errors I can see are the "android.phone process stopped working" and "NFC service stopped". When I press close on those they keep coming back, so fast I cant't even get past my lockscreen anymore.
On the phone is some very critical data to me, I have to restore that data (its in a encrypted app database). As long as I can save that data and restore it to use when the android/app is restored I'm fine.
Can someone give me advise on how to continue?

Where is that data located? If it's on internal memory in it's own directory it will remain intact if you repair/flash firmware.
EDIT: some other thoughts, try to remove the SIM or switch to airplain mode.
I'm not 100% percent sure where it is located, It's on the internal memory but I'm not sure if where it is exactly. It's a database of an app.
Won't I lose all my files on reflash? Reflash can be done with fastboot right? And I should reflash the firmware (kernel?)? Not the rom itself?
Already tried rebooting with SIM and sdcard out, no luck though.
No luck on connecting to ADB, I tried but USB debugging is turned off and my drivers seem to let me down... I can get connect to fastboot
Other ideas?

Too bad USB debugging is off.
If database is on device memory than it will be lost if you wipe data on flash. If you don't wipe data you may still have those errors, but you can take your chances and try without wiping data.
Yes with flashtool, do you have the FTF file for the firmware you are currently using?
Is it tooted and have CWM on it?
I don't have the FTF anymore, but I know where to find it.
Luckily I have CWM on it.
Do I have to reflash with the zip or just run the update?

I think best is to make your own FTF.
Start repair with PC Companion, and when it finish downloading the files and ask to shut down the phone, stop and create the FTF as explained here.
The FTF can only be flashed with flashtool.
I don't mean to sound rude but why do I want my own FTF?
Do you mean a FTF from the OEM firmware, they can be downloaded from XDA as well.
Or do you mean creating an FTF from the files that are now on my phone?

I've seen a few people hat flashing firmware they download didn't work well for them but flashing with SUS or PCC did.
I'm not twisting your hand, if you rather use FTF you can download somewehere and it works then do that.
Ok so i tried to flash the kernel, the flashing went well but the error persists.
I think it's time to conclude that my data is gone..
It gave me some headaches and I sweared a lot but i got it working again.
I've flashed the boot.img, didn't resolve the issue.
I've updated the same rom over my old rom, didn't solve the issue.
I wiped cache only (to try and see if it would work) and this worked.
So it might have been a cache problem after all.
The updating android thingy was shown again only this time it said it had to update 100+ apps, and it did. After that I could use my phone again.
First things first, lets make a backup .
Thanks ChickeD (i've thanked you on XDA for your help)
This can be marked as [RESOLVED]
