Long story short - was running WB v3.9.0 Gingerbread on my x10, worked flawlessly... until my usb cable stopped working. Went out and bought a new one... Charged phone for 2 hours fine, tried to plug into PC to update to WB v4.0... PC didn't recognize my phone...
Tried downloading new drivers etc.. nothing worked. So i rebooted phone:
Surprise Surprise! SD Card is unmountable!
rebooted into xrecovery and did a factory reset/wipe of everything.
then tried to restore my backed up rom.... SD card unavailable...
Tried to manually mount sdcard, didn't work
Tried formating SD card - no luck there!
Now i'm stuck with NO ROM, no way to plug my phone into my computer to download a ROM, a constant bootloop with no firmware and a crappy replacement nokia...
Any help would be MUCH appreciated! (other than taking it in to repair) I don't know if my warranty will cover this much destruction...
EDIT: called up my service provider (3 australia) and they immediately agreed (to my utter delight and complete surprise) to swap my handset for a brand new HTC Desire HD...
It's a shame i'm now leaving the x10 forums - i really did love the phone, but for an offer like this i don't think many people would refuse the trade.
Thanks everyone for your help and input and see you (or not) on the Desire HD forums
Looks grim... you might be out of luck...

especially the nokia replacement eh?
What version of xrecovery are you using?? Is the latest one which is gingerbread fix? The version that is not fix for gingerbread have that problem with mounting sd card. So try the latest from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571&highlight=xrecovery
Another question: did you try with flash tool? maybe in flash mode your phone will be recognized.
try to put your SD card into a card reader and copy the existing data to your computer.
then format the SD card with Panasonic SD Formatter - I can't include the URL as I'm a new member. Just google it.
After formatting the SD card, put all data you copied to your PC back on the SD card and try again.
Maybe it works, I had a similar problem and could fix it as detailed.
if not...phew...good question...
can you get in flash mode? well if you can then reflash using SEUS
and search for drivers in forums.
did u try the flashtool to flash it bak to 2.1 SE rom ? i faced the same problems like u b4..
if u stil can access into xrecovery , u can try this

It connects in flash mode, but my computer doesn't read the usb connection in order to flash... neither does any other computer :S
actually i still don understand wat u mean by pc cant read the connection... when u start to flash ur phone bak to 2.1 SE generic rom, ur phone should be having a green light led right ? is the flashmode aborted at the half way bak or totally there is no connection at all?
sorry for asking so much, bcoz i faced this problem b4..i would like to help u too...
Hey, I also had same problem with my sd card. I couldn't mount it via xrecovery also The solution is very very simple You just have to buy a sd card reader. It coasts less than 1 euro. You will have to format your sd card, then copy someones zip with ROM and your phone is repaired
I'm stuck in the same boat. When I lug my phone in it says " USB Device not recognized." In device manager on my computer it says, "The USB device attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows doesnt recognize it."
the phone goes into flash mode but the phone is not recognized in flashtool!

So then try seus repair
SEUS wont recognize the phone!!
u might want to try the phone on a differrent cpu /laptop and run flashtool again.
Some cpus just dont want to detect. I have a few cpus i know,i do all the stuff on my win7 laptop cos its the one that does not give me any problem. one thing the laptop is original win7 64bit,the rest of the cpu is pirated xp,maybe thats why.
try it .
tried it on 2 different PCs, same frikkin error!
Have you downloaded the latest USB drivers and latest sues. My phone could not be found till I did that.

My problem is getting the computer to even recognize that the phone is plugged in. It's not even giving me a message saying 'device not recognize', it's totally ignoring it. Therefore i can't use SEUS to reflash the phone as when i plug in my phone in flashmode it doesn't read it.
As for formatting my sd card - that's not the problem... i have 2 sd cards (one brand new that i bought as a spare) and i tried both and neither of them worked - something seems to have happened to the actual hardware of the phone
I'm taking it in to repair tomorrow - this is the second x10 that's done this... maybe it's my computer?

Also - i can't find a link to the drivers on the forums anywhere - but i honestly doubt that's the problem - the phone was working 100% yesterday.
This may be out of the box but have you tried looking at the USBSTOR in your registry?
I had a problem before that my phone is not being detected by my laptop because of that. Just set it to 3 to enable it.
are u sure the cable you bought is a data cable not a charging only cable? Maybe the cable had a defect? also if the cable that went bad is the stock one see if the tip if bent. if the tip is bent try to make it straight.

does you windows detect the phone? what does it show in the device manager when connected, lots of people had the same problem with a certain firmware where the phone couldnt connect to the PC by MTP method.
if you provide a little more information then we could be able to help you much more.

Hi Team
I'm on carbon rom 4.4.4 and I'm trying to install the LP rom. however when i connect the phone (neo v mt11i) , it shows its installing the driver , however once done, it says that device is not installed. I can see under device manager , mt11i with yellow sign. I have downloaded the flash drivers from doomlord, however still its not detecting my phone when connected to windows 7. I tried on another laptop, still the same. Flashtool also don't detect my phone. earlier it used to detect the phone,however i might have deleted some driver from my PC and its not detecting now. please advice
