first i want to start by saying how sorry i am if i have repeated this thread, but in my defence im actually super confused
here is my story.
i have a SE x10 (or x10i i not sure).
right now its been modded (i used this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1305945 )
at one point after modding it wiped out (my friend was playing around with it) and lost all my data and stuff but it was still the modded look
at the moment im having wifi problems with it and have been advised by SE to send it into repair. now obviously i dont want them to know i got unofficial firmware on my phone.
how do i go back to the start, as in as SE gave me the phone no root no mod NOTHING. its a unbranded UK phone
iv read tutorials but not too sure which one i should follow.
and more info need let me know ill be happy to provide it
OKay! Best way to turn back is using pc companion! I guess! Whatever condition you are in... Install it on ur pc and check for repair and follow

If you havent done bootloader unlock by flashtool, dont worry about it.
No thats not the one, you can flash it but as you want to give it for repairs, it needs the UK generic.
this is the one you need: http://www.mediafire.com/?yrk3w24lrz0nfso

Hello guys, well today I updated my phone from android 1.6 to 2.1 via the SEUS. I tried to root my device but failed in vain. I tried out the z4 root 1.30 but that didn't work either. I am a bit agreeably using the flash method. Is there any workable alternative to get my cell rooted?i would prefer a single click approach.
Thanks
In a nut shell, no. You need to flash back to 504 firmware and start from there, as said on AF.
Flash and debrand with THIS, install THIS, then THIS, and you'll have an up to date, debranded and rooted X10.

To be frank I really have no idea about flash. I have heard that it is very risky. If something goes wrong then the device ends up getting bricked.

So long as you read the first post and browse the first few pages you'll be alright. X10 is pretty much unbrickable right now so get reading and give it a go.

my x10 flasher is getting downloaded. Before i start the process, i wanted to ask you whether by flashing will my xperia get rooted? because for custom xperia recovery to work they mention that they NEED a ROOTED device. also they need an app called the busy box.
what should i do?
Is there any video tut regarding the procedure? I downloaded all the things necessary for the procedure.

No, with flashtool you won`t need PCC or SEUS for anything (assuming you have already used at least once. usb drivers).
If that wasn`t a possible solution I have not mentioned
just guive it a shot...who knows?
I really not sure but...you have a problem, right? So don`t miss to much
guys i bow in humble awe, flasher worked like a charm back to 2.1-1 dualtouch, cause i made that ftf before and saved it. i for some reason thought i needed to use seus or pc companion to go into flash every time. however seriously can someone else test the AT&T 1.6 rom on olafs original operator post. after flash it messed my fone up. caused the time and media scapes to fc and several other problems. im 95% sure it wasnt my error. ive been flashing no problems for a few weeks, rooted xRecovery and jit enabled. i love the idea of the post he has and its intentions are noble.

Greetings XDA,
Lets say a Galaxy S II was rooted and then deleted some files from the system and edited some others. Then that Galaxy S II started malfunctioning and be useless.
How can you remove rooting and everything get back to original [ meaning like never rooted or edited files ] ?
Don't get upset i am a noob indeed and maybe annoying but i am a lawyer and i only play with papers. I gave this colleague of me my phone because he wanted to "see" something, at least that's what he said, and i went to the meeting, then he ran to find me and told me he messed it a little bit.
Can it be restored?
Will flashing firmware unroot the device and restore files back to stock?
Thanks anyone who answers or even view the thread.
Find your original firmware in intratechs thread and flash it through odin
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
You're sparse with info, like most lawyers..
If you can boot into download mode, do so and flash a stock ROM via Odin. System files will be restored but you'll lose root. If that goes well then you can re-root
Then you should boot your colleague in testicle mode.

My colleague still tries to find info on internet on how to restore it and keeps saying how sorry he is. Why do i need to reroot? I don't want to be rooted.
Does it need to be rooted? Because he rooted it i never wanted that.
Will doing so bring up all manipulated files?

Why are you sending PM's, we have forum, there are smarter people here and will solve your problem faster if more of us discuss about it.
First you said that you have problems with keyboard, then you said you followed this instructions: http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/08/how-to-root-the-sony-ericsson-xperia-neo-mt15i/
On those instructions I only see how to root your phone, which includes flashing MT11i kernel.
Now hear this. If you said all this info before, you would get your solution by now.
Flashing MT11i kernel on MT15i gives that error. And I would have told you that if you gave all the info you have. And no need to go around the web for instructions, everything you need is here, if you had checked this (sticky) thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 you would noticed that flashing only kernel cause errors.
For start flash your phone with correct fw, to solve your initial question, then go on next exhibitions
And please use forum, it will be faster

HEY there guys... I need help regarding a problem i am facing.. And it is about the rom that i just flashed on my gt-i9100
Now the prob is i was using stock ics rom with siyah kernel. And i dont know why, but i decided to flash stock jb rom which
has just leaked for s2.now as i flashed my phone is kind of factory locked, i tried to change the csc which was described in
the rom description but nothing worked .. I tried to find the unlock key via chainfire's app but it also didnt worked... Now for the time being
i have reverted back to stock ics but the prob is when i start my phone it asks for an unlock key and i dont have it so my phone
is working as a f*****g ipod right now.... i.e no working sim..
Plz tell me what to do now & if there is a way to install jb stock rom without factory locking the phone
Thanx alot.....

Look dude, the simple matter of the fact is that you're not special. Other people have had 100% exactly same "problem" as you and have solved easily by reading the topics that have already been created about this matter.
We have various topics on unlocking sim after flashing JB so go read and learn.
creating duplicate topics and labeling it as "URGENT!!!!" doesn't help you it just irritates people into not wanting to reply or help you.

First i flashed jb spanish leak ... Then i flashed nordic leak... Same problem persisting.. Actually that app galaxy s unlock aint working on jb i guess. For me atleast
If i understand right what are u asking for is an UNLOCK code for the phone because it is not booting up at all and u can't even get to sim unlocking screen where u have to input ur PIN ? Is that correct?
If yes, i've had same problem on my old GalaxyS, im not sure if it will work on S2 but here is what i did.
1. I've typed in random letters, numbers few times
2 Phone said if i'll put in another wrong code it will format my SD card.
3 I did that anyway.
4. Phone was unlocked and SD cart NOT formatted.
If u can go to recovery mode u can try to mount usb storage and make a backup of ur SD card.
I hope it helps.

No... Its not the case. I come across that screen but i dont have any key to put in so i just dismiss the msj... And the phone's working but the sim is not registered... I was thinking if it is to do anything with the country i am living in.??? Any ideas?
I suppose ur not asked about PIN code, so there is no sim card inserted or phone is not recognizing its presence. Maybe its silly but pull it out and push back in. If there is no contact problem and u have tried various roms and kernels then i would start suspecting hardware issue.
Post a screen shot.
And it better not be a SIM PIN code.

No its not. The phone is asking for a factory unlock code.... just right now I am on jb rom xwls8 militantRom using the app (galaxy s unlock) but all in vain... I searched the forum and came across that if revert back to ics, backup my efs folder and then install militantRom then there wont be any problem but nothing changed for me here

GalaxySim Unlock is one app, Galaxy S unlock is another app.
You need busybox, got busybox installed?
Ask yourself, do you really wanna unlock your device?
Start paying attention.
