Guyz please help me!!! - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I have X10 mini...Recently i tried flashing nAa JB rom...kernel flashed well...But when i tried flashing ROM, it stuck at the middle for an hour.So, I shut down the device hardly by pressing back button and power and volume buttons!! Now a strange situation is being faced by the device. I flashed with the same kernel and other kernels too... irrespective of the kernel, Device shows boot looping of the kernel screen and LED sensors(red and orange both) again and again..But didnot go into the CWM...Please help..me!!!!!!! :crying:
Shall i leave it until battery drains fully and flash again? is there any possibility to get into CWM?

I've unlocked bootloader year back!! I've been through almost all the roms in my mini!!!

You did do the correct wipes when you flashed, right?
It could be your partitions messed up but I don't know except that wouldn't be good

Seus back to stock. Then flash the jb kernel via flashtool and format all mtd partitions. There is a reason you should format them. Dont ommit this step. Good luck.

i did unlock!!

Thanx nAa...But my thinking is that kernel performance is respective to phone memory and kernel is what takes us to CWM!! Isn't it? Is there any link between kernel and Custom data on SD card except flashing the ROM for a respective kernel?
As per your suggestion, SEUS says Your Phone do not have any software to be installed..even if i flash JB after flashing stock kernel, CWM doesnt appear..except the LOGO and white and orange sensors blinking and looping again and again...
Can anyone help what nAa mean to say about partitioning? I'm a noob in partitioning and dont know about mtd partitioning...!!!Any help would be really appreciated!!

Do Help guyz!!

it s write on naa kernel post :
This kernel introduces custom mtd partitioning with larger /system partition to hold the extra JB calories. If you are moving from another custom kernel to this one, you MUST first format /system /data and /cache via the embedded CWM recovery
So you need on first boot go to CWM and format /system /data and /cache

Look at the instructions in the kernel-thread, it's very straight-forward:
You flash the Kernel
You boot into CWM
You go into Mounts and Storage
Format /system
Format /data
Format /cache
And next time: READ!!!!!! Don't ask questions that are clearly answered already.

My device problem is that Kernel loops again again but wont take me to CWM...If this happened, wouldnt have put question in this thread!! U might not be knowing that if kernel boots properly, i would get into the CWM..Anyways, Me and nAa were on discussion and others who can clearly solve my problem are welcome..Rest of the Noobs, Shut and F**K and i'm sorry coz my problem is such now and i'm peak of my anger!!!

You asked how to format MTD partitions...
I'm telling you how...
All nAa told you was to go back to stock, because that will restore the partitions to normal, and then flash the JB kernel again and format the mtd-partitions.
It's nothing to do with your sd-card
IF SEUS or PC Companion can't repair your phone, i guess you're buggered royally.

Will flashtool let you root it and install xrec?
Maybe that way you could get it to work still
I've got a complete stock firmware for flashtool for the x10mini, i'm not sure if the partitions get resized when you flash it using flashtool, but i guess it could be worth a try.
PM me for the link if you're interested.

Get into fast boot mode and flash a different boot image.

[Q] Oops, I've used format/system ... :-)

Hi guys,
I've got a big problem, I've used "format/system" in xRecovery and now when I reboot, I'm only getting the Sony Ericsson logo. I did a backup on SDcard but I'm a Mac user so I've used Crossover to use SEUS and try to restore. The problem is the phone isn't detected, only the green LED is turn on but nothing happen on the Mac...
I'm gonna try on PC, but if you can help me ... it will be great !!
(Sorry guys for my english, but I'm a french student who spend more time on his X10 than in english class !)
I think you use flashtool and flash a 2.1 firmware
Flash Tool
2.1 Firmware can also be found in the flashtool post.
Can you use xRecovery after this problem?
If so, why don't you restore the backup that you have made ?

I think the format erases the xrec. In this case, as the colleague up there told him flashtool is the solution.

same problem here but i have tried flash tool many time.what shall i do?
Hi jojooo89,
I suppose crossover might not help you in flashing even thought it might detect the phone after some tinkering.
flashing works only on windows either throught SEUS or flashtool...
the reason being usbflash.dll is only on windows.

If you can still get into x-recovery, you could try mounting your SD card, copying over a ROM and then installing it with x-recovery

This is not true. In 'Partition Tools' there is a 'Format System' option that formats everything including the system files/folders. Since XRecovery files are in the 'System' folder using this option removes XRecovery. There is a warning in the XRecovey thread to never use this option without having another system image to replace it with.
I would assume based on that warning though that there is some way to replace the system but thats a question for Z.

Hey everyone!
I have a huge problem. I tried to update my OS from cm10 5.1 kernel v16 to cm10 8.1 kernel v18.
I used system format, and when I start my phone it just showed me CM10 logo.
I tried to flash to stock verision, somehow I managed it, but now SE logo on my phone, and I can not flash again, because when I flash my phone it's starting itselfs automatically, so the flashing stops
Could someone help me? I hope you could understand what I wrote.

[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.

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.

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?

How are you trying to get into recovery?
What does the LED do while you boot the ZU?
I would just flash jackie099's kernel and restore the backup from there - I cant see how flashtool would be failing except for a problem on the PC

yes master...
i cant get into recovery, i used to get no problem at all flashing kernels or down/upgrading ftf to it...
but right now i'm stuck with this kernel wich theres no recovery at all, no light no recovery...:crying:
i've tried to reflash kernels many times but failed...
the worse part that i got is that it has no signal at all...:crying:
if i flash it with any new ftf (down/upgrade), the kernel should be replace by the list on ftf package right...
but not mine...
Stucks... (3.4 bla bla)
how could i recover my ZU if i cant flash the kernel...:crying:

Make sure your phone is turned off.
Start Flashtool and click the lightening bolt at the top left and select 'FASTBOOT MODE'.
You should now see a new window of flashtool titled FASTBOOT TOOLBOX.
Plug in your phone while holding the Volume Up button
Back on flashtool: To the far right where it says 'By DOOMLORD', just below that the second option is 'Select Kernel to Flash', click it.
Browse for the .IMG file that you downloaded from the top of this post(which is the boot file for your phone to boot and let you into recovery).
Change the file type that's listed next to File Name at the bottom of the browse window, to .IMG
Select the .img file and it should flash automatically and tell you to check the log list shown right in flashtool before rebooting. If you don't see any errors then go ahead and unplug your device and boot it and try going into recovery.
You should be good to go now.

I think we need to see a log or screen grab of the output of flashtool when you try and flash a kernel and a FTF
I think "invalid argument" normally happens on a locked bootloader???
