Hello Evrybody
i have a huge Problem with my ST15i
I had Rooted GB on it and evrything works fine till i decided to try a custom ROM
so i instal Recovery Tool and installed a Custom Rom for ST15 i
after installling and rebooting to the new rom, i noticed when i tried to open the screen lock bar that the touchscreen didnt react exactly - i had to slide at the other side of the display to unlock it!
So i decided to make the phone fresh with SEUS and ICS4.0! After SEUS update i restarted my phone and the whole touch display didnt work anymore!
only the hardbuttons - i cannot back to any Recovery tool , with out touch display i cant switch to uUSB Debug Mode!!
Is there hope to help my Phone!!
Thx in Advatage!!
Hi,
This means you installed custom rom and it didn't work? And then you connected your phone to pc and used seus while you were on custom rom? You did not flash original sony from back first and updated (or tried to update) while you were on custom rom?
Have you tried to use flashtool? I don't know if your touchscreen has bricked up completely, but you could flash gb firmware back, so you have a clean gb rom.
For this download sony flashtool from here and install it. You go to the drivers section of the flashtool folder on your computer and install them. Then you download the 4.0.2.A.0.42 rom (for SK17i) rom from here and move it to the firmware folder of flashtool on your pc. Then you start flashtool and click on the flash. You select flashmode and then you select the 4.0.2.A.0.42 rom and click ok.
Then you turn off your phone (make sure it is over 50% charged) and hold volume down key. Then you plugin the usb cable to pc and smartphone while holding volume down. It should flash the original gingerbread rom.
If the flash finished you can hope that the touchscreen workd, if not I don't know a solution.
BUT: I DONT TAKE ANY RESPOSIBILITY FOR THIS METHOD!!!
If it has worked you can be lucky, if not you are on non-rooted gingerbread rom and could bring your device to the service, but I'm not sure!
OR: First read this thread cause he has similar problem!
Best regards
Michael
i managed it already to install androis SDK on pc and ADB Drivers - via Fastboot i can reach the Device and Bootloader seems to be open, the blue led is wworking, windows accepts my phone as installed android ADB Device - and when i try with Flashtool, and some other different tools to flash new kernel - i always become the mesagge ithe device must be rooted even from fastboot when i use the (fastboot flash boot boot.img) command
I will try some other things , when this does not helps so i try with service
THX
But led is working anyway, it doesn't say, that the bootloader is unlocked. Maybe really flash the 4.0.2.A.0.42 firmware using flashtool and then try if touch works, otherwise bring device to service, but I don't know if they can notice your try to install a custom rom.
Hope it will work for you!

Help please i think my phone is screwed not sure what happen i was going back to 2.1 the drivers weren't there so i flashed another rom at that point it broke xrec and flash mode my phone will not load SE logo or boot it just does 1 short vibrate then nout happens ive tried to flash back with flash tool also tried se update service & pc companion & tried this method
if your x10i brick (SE Logo) and can't reboot can't access xrec and can't access flash mode (for flash generic rom)
i have a solution..
1. connect the phone to PC (USB)
2. open superOneClick v1.55 and click shell root icon
3. open FlashTool 0.2.9.1 and click Ask Root Perms
4. click menu advanced --> clean --> clear cache
5. click xrecovery icon
6. click menu advanced --> Xrecovery--> Reboot into Recovery
7. look you phone.. bingo.. u can access Xrecovery and then just install u favorit custom rom n reboot..
8. now u phone normaly n u can access flash mode to flash generic rom
i get to shell root then it cant find my phone any suggestions please?
if you've had this problem how much did it cost to fix?
Once again, if you haven't unlocked your bootloader then it's impossible to completely brick your phone, you can always enable flash mode and flash firmwares as long as you have all SE drivers installed.
ive tried to flash stock 2.1 with flash tool but i flash old rom (2.1) with xrecovery by mistake over 2.3 custom rom & kernal after that everythink started to go wrong xrecovery worked once then said can't mount sd card also refused to flash wolf v4 due to sd card not mounted, so i reboot then xrecovery was broken then i tried flash tool again it said starting to flash but failed as debugging was off but i had problem with xrecovery and rom would not boot tried few times then it did not show the sony ericsson logo on boot & it has black screen been like this ever scine and 100% cannot load in flashtool it says unknown device when connected. also i did not use bootloader unlock & i have tried pc companion & se update tool neither pick up phone

Turn the phone off completely, get the stock firmware you want to flash, choose to flash it via flash tool and wait till it shows up for you to plug in the phone, put the USB cable into the phone, holding the back button put the battery in, should go straight to flash mode, just hold up, it should flash back stock rom.
Proceed the usual root steps etc after it's finished.
wow wtf its working ive tried this about 50 times already it said please turn debug on cheers dude i crapped myself 3 wanted £420 so i could upgrade

NOTE :
you can port any rom from other devices because XMP, XM and LWW brothers. and that is why we are in theard the same. porting means just, replace a few files. So you can do it Replace the hw_config, sensors.conf, copy smultron touch hex firmware file /etc_firmware/ and DELETE mango hex's, and edit the build prop /just replace all sk17 and mango or mini pro lines/. And this is all. Flash the mini kernel and install the rom.but for XMP, you must replace the "usr" to the physical keyboard and some file for the adjustment.
thanks to kamarush
BEFORE WE START THERE ARE SOME REQUIRMENTS TO FLASH A ROM AND KERNEL SUCH AS..
{1}.YOUR Bootloader MUST BE unlocked.I THINK 80% OF ROM NEEDS UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER..WITHOUT IT YOU CANT FLASH CUSTOM ROM...
THERE ARE TWO WAYS OR METHODS OF UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER...
(1).OFFICIAL WAY:http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/
(2).TEST POINT METHOD:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285285
YOU WILL VOID YOUR WARRENTY IF YOU UNLOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER...
....YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION ABOUT UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER ON ABOVE LINKS....
{2}.YOU MUST BE ROOTED AND HAVE CMW(ClockWorkMode) INSTALL ON YOUR PHONE
HOW TO FLASH CMW IS GIVEN HERE:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1345741
BEST WAY TO HAVE ROOT AND CMW IS TO FLASH CUSTOM KERNEL.
IF YOU HAVE ABOVE THINGS THEN YOU ARE READY TO GO...
...TO FLASH CUSTOM KARNEL YOU WILL NEED FLASTOOL:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351309....

I already mod my sk17i this way,only thoud there is something else I can do with it.Thanks any way.
Hello
My phone: sony ericsson experia Neo (MT15i)
I tried to instal CM9 but something went wrong and now i cant start my phone.(normal, recovery nor fastboot)
I downloaded CM9, extracted the boot.img file, and placed it in the fastboot folder.
Then i placed the Zip and the google apps on the SD-card.
I then rebooted the phone in Fastboot and flashed the boot.img file.
Everything looked like it went fine but the phone wasn't rebooting. I've tried alot of things now but nothing works.
The only thing that happens when I try to put on the phone is the slight vibration in the beginning and then nothing happens.
Can somebody please help me? I cant even go in recovery with CWM
I also had this problem with CM 9. You just have the flash the old kernel back. Or you can flash the whole firmware again: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239
Edit: with Flashtool.
I would have tried that, but the problem is i cant go into flashmode anymore. Nothing works.
Fastboot?

Follow these steps
1.Download Sony Ericssion Update Service (SEUS)
2.Hold the volume down button key of ur phone and connect to the USB connected to your PC
3.If this does not work remove the battery and put it back again and do step no 2.
4.SEUS will detect ur phone and install the latest ICS i.e.4.0.4
5. U will have a bootloader relocked and rooted phone :fingers-crossed:

2)why volume down?
5)seus nor pcc doesn't relock bootloader, plus if he unlocked it via official way, he won't be able to use pcc nor seus.
@OP: what happens when you try connecting in fastboot mode? No blue led? Hows your phone named in device manager?

I had the same problem with that CM9 kernel and I had unlocked bootloader & I recovered my phone using SUSE by the same process I wrote that's y I suggested him those steps

3.If this does not work remove the battery and put it back again and do step no 2.
4.SEUS will detect ur phone and install the latest ICS i.e.4.0.4
5. U will have a bootloader relocked and rooted phone :fingers-crossed:

I will give this a try.
I think there might be a problem with the Trim Area though. I have been looking for a solution but it seems hard.

2)why volume down?
5)seus nor pcc doesn't relock bootloader, plus if he unlocked it via official way, he won't be able to use pcc nor seus.
@OP: what happens when you try connecting in fastboot mode? No blue led? Hows your phone named in device manager?

I was thinking there was a trim area problem so I was looking for a solution.
At first there was nothing, no device recognized when I attached it to a pc. No flastboot, no flash, no recovery, no leds, nothing at al (exept for a slight vibration in the beginning).
Then I followed the method for unlocking the boot loader with testpoint and then te pc recognized the device as a neo. But thats all. Nothing more, stil no reaction when i try to turn the phone on in any way.
I disconnected the device and now when I reconnect it it isn't recognized anymore.

Hello
My phone: sony ericsson experia Neo (MT15i)
I tried to instal CM9 but something went wrong and now i cant start my phone.(normal, recovery nor fastboot)
I downloaded CM9, extracted the boot.img file, and placed it in the fastboot folder.
Then i placed the Zip and the google apps on the SD-card.
I then rebooted the phone in Fastboot and flashed the boot.img file.
Everything looked like it went fine but the phone wasn't rebooting. I've tried alot of things now but nothing works.
The only thing that happens when I try to put on the phone is the slight vibration in the beginning and then nothing happens.
Can somebody please help me? I cant even go in recovery with CWM

Use Flashtool, flash an Official Global ftf from SONY, then let it boot up. It will work. Only way to do it. PM me if needed
Is this the OFFICIAL CyanogenMod 9 RC1? The boot.img does not work. Use the boot.img from FXP's Unofficial CyanogenMod 9. It works. Personally though, use FXP's CM9 cause it's working better then the official one.
Before using the full restore method (The Flashtool thing) try flashing the boot.img from FXP first. Still doesn't work? Flash official, boot-up, turn off, flash FXP kernel, full-wipe, flash ROM, reboot.
My Phone is fixed.
Alejandrissimo helped me with rebuilding the Trim Area.
Everything works fine now, except connecting to 3G/HSDPA. I used to be able to connect to it but now it doesn't anymore.
Does someone knows a solution for that?

Hello everyone,
I encountered a problem while flashing a new rom on my new (actually 1,5 years old) Xperia U.
I rooted it and managed to instal the CWM touch recovery (using the CWM-instaler) and when i tried to flash a new rom (eXperiance V2.1)
the rom stopped installing (it has a special installer where u select apps and stuff, u probably know of it) and it didn't move on... i had no other option but to take out the battery. When i tried to turn on the phone again it just showed the sony logo, then automatically restarted, showed the logo again for a few seconds and restarted, and kept doing that until i took out the battery again...
So i tried the flashtool and i can connect the phone in flashmode (green led), but i cant connect it in fastboot mode (it connects but then suddenly disconnects as the phone restarts). I wanted to flash a new .ftf file but somehow when i put my file in the /firmware folder and turn on flashtool it is not visible in the files i could flash (just the stock x10 file is there) so im really at a loss...
Anyone got any ideas?
i did backup my previous rom but since i cant boot my phone into recovery that's not a lot of help...
I might also mention that the phone was running ics 4.0.4. and that the bootloader was locked ( i did have root tho...)
If you want any extra info just ask
Any help would be appreciated thank you
Solution: I did what dara007_168 said, which was:
1. Put the file into folder firmware(make sure the file is FTF
2.open flashtool don't do anything
3.select lightening icon and select flash mode then select the download firmware
4.wait for the pop up said
"Turn off your device....."
5.turn off your Xperia u at least 30 second
6.press the volume down key with the same time connect your phone to computer via usb (make sure to have driver install)
7.wait till it finished done
at first this didn't work for me since i had some problems with the flash tool but then i re-downloaded the older version of the flashtool and the firmware and also reinstalled the drivers.
After that it worked and i could normally flash the generic firmware.
Links:

How could you flash the kernel with a locked bootloader?
Have you installed the drivers from flashtool drivers directory, what windows version you have?

Bro u can't flash custom kernel when your bootloader is locked the only way to fix it is to flash back to stock rom via flashtool or Sony update services

Sorry for no reply for so long but i made a video and here's the screenshot of my flashtool
I am using Win 7 64x and i have installed the drivers in the flashtool driver directory.
There is a chance the phones bootloader was unlocked though... i didn't check (honestly i didn't know how)

Thanks for trying to help
(sorry i haven't got enough posts to post links)
Edit: I tried using sony update service and it gave me an error stating that the software installed on my device cant be updated... probably becouse it has a half of a custom rom flashed, or am i missing something here?
Bro I think you should flash stock firmware. I think u know how to use flashtool that easy.
1.charge battery until it full i don't know if u can charge battery or not but u should
try. I have the same problem by flash the same rom as your but mine is different it stuck on the boot animation so it can charge but u I don't know
2.download stock firmware
3.flash it

I mentioned before when i try to copy the firmware file in to the appropriate folder it works, but its just now visible in the flash tool window to select.

Firmware is flashed in flash mode not fastboot, see how long can you stay in flash mode, though fastboot should be on forever.
Did you unlock your bootloader?
@ dara007_168 I think the phone should be reasonably charged, since i started doing things on it with a full charge and didn't really use it much, so i don't believe that's the problem. I downloaded the firmware u said and again i have the same problem with flash tool... i put the file in the correct folder, but when its time to flash it to the phone (which is correctly connected) it just isn't there, i cant select the the file i downloaded.
@ ChikeD The flash mode stays connected for about 45sec and then it goes into boot loop and about the boot loader i actually think i managed to unlock it a few hours ago (i did the necessary steps on the sony site and got the code before i bricked the phone) and now i entered the number in the flash tool and i think it actually did unlock my boot loader... although i don't know how to check that...
Oh, and fast boot mode stays on forever i think (ill let it charge a bit in fast boot mode, since the red light beside the camera is on so i think its charging)

Yow man, thanks for helping me out like this but there is a problem when i try to do those steps.
At step 3. I select the lightning icon, and the small pop up window appears and i select flash mode, and then
the window opens called Firmware selector, but the firmware is nowhere in that window and i don't know why...
i know where it should be i checked some videos it just isn't there...
Would it help if i posted screenshots of all the steps?
ow and another thing.
would it work if i tried to use fastboot and flash a kernel from that option? or maybe even flash the firmware?
And i guess this might be a useful peace of information, i am using Flashtool Version 0.9.12.1 built on 2013-06-04 22:50:00

Hello guys, today it's a really bad day for me. My M4 is now totally bricked.
Here's why:
I installed CM 12.1 and I will get back to stock, but my phone not enter in flashmode. So I flashed a zip file of stock rom but it not booted. I want to get Flashmode back, and I find a flashable zip that restore flashmode in Sony Xperia M. I flashed it and... bye bye M4. Now the phone only enter in SOMC FLASH DEVICE, Flashtool not flash, but say:
Device connected with USB debugging OFF. For 2011 devices line be sure that you aren't in MTP mode.
Sometimes enter in Unkown device. I have all drivers and I'm using original cable with USB 2.0 port. Now I'm trying to restore with PCC.
I removed the battery connectors for a while, put them back, but nothing changed.
My battery is at 100%.
What should I do?
So flash mode does not work anymore? This may seem inappropriate to say now that your phone is dead but if you have technical experience you could make a guide to opening and repairing the M4 or at least take pictures. But if flash mode or fastboot works try to restore it first
Well... Sorry to hear that :/ but uh..

It uses a MSM8939 board same as ours. It's up to you if you want to attempt it but I'm suggesting not to.. Good luck anyway!
Thank you very much! Firstly I will try to send it to the shop where I buyd (sorry my english) and if they don't change the phone I will try this. Really thank you again!
EDIT: Ok, I am following the tutorial, but my M4 show only qhsusb_bulk with no driver. What I have to do?

probably you flashed custom kernel/rom with bootloader unlock=NO , you can try the S1 tool to restore your bootloader but you must have the original one.

you must have qhsusb_dload detected if yes then download this zip extract it and run s1tool, you must copy boot.sin and s1boot from your stock rom, the two files inside the zip are not for your C3, but you can try at your own risk.
