So ive been using JMT since the v8 and ive never had a problem before. One night i decided to get the X1 and everything seemed to well..the next day i was chargin my phone and i noticed that the phone was off, the chargitng icon was not showing.
I turned to phone on and it would go halfway the splash screen and then it would go black.. then it would start vibrating the way it vibrates when u turn the phone on and it just does that. I tried doing a battery pull but everything that i put in the battery the phone turns on automaticly.
Ive tried going to recovery but it just wont go in. PC doesnt detect the phone and it looks like theres a 5 second gap before the phone does the same hthing over and over.
I dont know what to do because the phone doesnt let me do anything.No recovery,no nothing.
could somebody help me please?
what can i do!? any other ways to totally erase the whole phone! even if i have to fry the motherboard so i could get a replacement lol! but i dont want to do that tho that would be my last solution
it looks like you may need a jtag to fix the phone, it seems that the X1 may have bricked your phone.

Hey xda crew!
i was hoping you might be able to help me out with this problem i have
I tried to root my phone recently using the "newbies guide to rooting x10" and well when i turned my phone back on it wouldn't turn on and just vibrated constantly untill i took the battery out.
after that i decided to try and reinstall software using SEUS and it told me that it worked. But when i tried to start my phone it again wouldn't start. but this time instead of vibrating the screen light just turned on and sort of flashed every now and then.
I left the phone on all night charging while the screen was doing funny things, in hope that it would eventually start up. but when i got up in the morning the battery had gone dead and all that was happening was the red led light was flashing.
I tried to get it back into flash mode, but because the battery was so dead all the phone would do was the red lights would flash when i plugged it into the computer.
As im not sure that i can claim it on warranty.. i was wondering if my problem lies in the USB cord/charger or the phone its self? or the battery?
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Would be a amazing help.
Thanks heaps in advance.
Well, something probably went wrong when you tried too root it, so it turned into a brick.
You won't be able to claim it on the warranty because you lost that when you tried rooting it.
Get your battery charged (maybe in someone elses x10), and search the forums here, i'm pretty sure that there is a de-brick guide somewhere, although i haven't tried it.
To get into flash mode, your bttry need to be on 50% charged... Your phone must've been booting all night, find a way to charge your battery mate, n then bfore flasing, take out ur battery, hold the back key n insert it back.... Hope this will b helpful...
maguyver it take an old charger cut the end off strip the wires now touch the red to the positive and black to negative of your battery and plug it in... i had to do it for my buddies droid x when i bricked it when it was it it reads as full charge but you only wanna have it plugged in like that for like 10 min tops

Guess there's not many to help in this issue. I just faced the same man. Don't know what to do. It won't go to flash mode, SEUS don't recognize, neither the flash tool. Reinstalled PC companion thinking the drivers have gone wrong but that don't seem to be the issue.
So im here with a bricked x10, lol but not funny ppl
Someone(recognized developer) in the forum said that the X10 can't b hard bricked. Also, i got this problem 2-3months back. But now its alright.
SEUS did't find the drivers for my x10. Then i went to my friends home(who also has x10) and flash my x10 using seus. I found drivers because drivers were already installed on my friend's pc.
So, i just want to tell you that:
Flash your X10 from that PC which already has drivers installed.
Remember your x10 can't b hard bricked. It will be semi-bricked.
Sorry for my bad english

I'm not a DEV
But I played and bricked and de-bricked my x10 a lot and I literally installled and tested almost all ROM's the dev's posts
So, this is what I feel would've happand.
First of all, u didnt mention if u were on 2.1 or 2.3.
Because rooting 2.3 is not as easy as 2.1.
Now, like what most people commented, you root must have been broken.
Also, what I feel is that your battery stats were wrong.
That means, your battery was not holding the proper charge what it was actually "showing" (charging is infact is software based).
Now, what you actually can do is, find another person who has an X10 near your place.
Put ur battery in his cell and check whats happening.
If its really out of juice, then use "his" phone to charge your battery.
Charge it to full and then put it back to ur phone and try starting your phone.
If the vibration thing is happening, then ur battery is good.
Now open flash tool, and remove battery from ur phone.
Connect USB to phone and comp, and press the back button and hold it, and while holding it, insert the battery.
From my experience, you should be seeing the green light now, and my openion is that u flash the 2.1 generic firmware and then rroot the phone first, install recovery and after doing these, install any of the custom ROMs available.
I'm using Wolf's ROM v 4.04 and its very stable.
All the best and report back if your problem is fixed.
Hey guys, i bought an x10 yesterday, the seller told me straight up that it wont boot, red led flashes 3 times thats it. (he tried to restore his unit with seus after it randomly crashed). When i met him, i swapped his battery for mine and no more red led but still wont boot. I was able to get it in flash mode so i figured, restore with seus and all would be ok. When i got home, tried restoring with seus and when i got close to the end, it failed. Keeps telling me my battery is dead but when i pop it in my other x10, its at around 80%. So, started flashtool and tried it that way but fails towards the end of the process. Even the new flashtool 3.0 didnt work. Gave up for a bit but then retried. seus failed twice but on 3rd try, it worked. Now, the phone will vibe when i hit the power button, green led flashes and screen kinda turns on but no SE logo, then powers off and restarts the boot (still no SE logo). I put in a full battery and left it that way all night. this morning, red led blinking 3 times again. I changed the battery and it still tries to boot but ends up in a loop. Ive been searching all kinds and no fix is available from what i understand. im really confused atm. hardware issue?
Could be motherboard..
This may not apply to the X10 but my sister's X10 Mini Pro went through a fairly similar issue. The phone was stuck in a bootloop with the SE logo, bootanimation, repeat. No matter what we tried, we could not get it to boot properly. She hadn't made a backup and banned me from doing a repair flash of the firmware so I was trying a load of other options (all the while telling her that the only way out was a flash).
I have an EP900 battery charger so randomly decided to charge up her battery to 100% and give it a try. Boom, booted up perfectly. Used the battery down to 20% and tried to reboot, bootloop again. For some reason the phone doesn't boot without a fully charged battery (didn't try charging it with the phone, only the external charger).
Dunno if this will apply to you, but it may be worth a shot. Otherwise, I'm inclined to think you have a mobo problem. Maybe the seller tried unlocking the bootloader and bricked it?

Thats what i thought at first, who knows.... Bout the battery, i tried a fully charged one too but no go. Also,tried to repair my phone with pc companion but still wont boot up... out of options, im 99% sure its the mobo as well...
Not sure, what the issue is, but you can try the following:
1. Try charging the battery for quite a while, and forget about the phone for 2 hours, for me a few months back. I slept while xrec was on, and in the morning it was showing me the red light......I charged it for two hours which brought my phone back to life.
2. You can use SEUS to update your phone, which will wipe the entire thing and get you a fresh new GB stock. Then you can play with it.

1. Battery isnt the problem, as i have 2 to play with
2. Tried that, but either it fails, or if it does go thru, it still wont boot.
It wont even show the "Sony Ericsson" when its powered up. Can it be possible, the guy played around and messed up the files required for this unit to boot? Is that even possible?

Ok lets start.
1) Phone wouldn't connect to PC but it would charge - got over that by just using a memory card and always having ROMS on the card
2) went on holiday (gran canaria) at the beach so a bit of sand got on my phone but it was working fine for the rest of the holiday
3) Got on the plane and the phone was working fine i Accidently left it off airplane mode but oh well we lived ad im sure that hasn't affected anything and fell asleep with it in my pocket. now ive got back to the UK but the phone was of even though it was charged before hand. tried to use the wall charger but it wouldn't work when i got home i tried USB but that wouldn't work
4) today ive gone to get a new battery in case the battery has died but no battery worked. i went ot about 3 different shops and now im sure its the phone.
5) ive tried cleaning (blowing the sand out of the phone and it never got wet so now i don't know what to do. i was using the Foxhound rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1162715) which was working fine the whole time
What are my options? I dont have insurance but i was considering to get i. so i could them to replace it but not sure if i could get another since im sure the warranty is void since ive rooted my phone and put a new rom on. If that's not an option then i wouldn't mind opening my phone to try and fix it myself if someone could point me in the right direction. Annnnnd if that's not an option how much could i sell it for as it is? ive still got the box and stuff lol
oh yeah when i say i cant turn it on i dont mean bootloop i mean it wont even vibrate when i press the on button tried soft and hard reset ive opened the phone and tried cleaning it out and i cant get into recovery or download obviously because it wont turn on

Hi all, i got my Galaxy S2 about a year ago (9100 normal, non AT&T or verizon or another else ) and i never encountered problem like this. One day i was texting on the toilet, and unfortunately it fell down on a bowl of water and its all soaked. I just turn it of and take out the battery, when i turn on it again, the start mode triggers, the icon Samsung igt 9100 is showing up and it keeps blinking and blinking, bootlooping. many of my friend said that it is fine and just wait for the water inside the machine to dry up, like one week or so. but after one day i tried to turn it on, the yellow triangle below the 9100 logo is gone ( i think its resetted and everything is gone ) and it went to download mode. But after that, i was not careful enough and my battery fell off, and the phone is turned off dead. and after all of that, i can't even turn on the phone, nothing happened, its like a dead phone without battery.
i went to many forums and many people tried to fix it using the download mode USB jig recovery kit, i bought the i9100 USB jig on the eBay, its arrived today. I tried to plug in on my phone, and i try to turn it on and even every boot method ( download mode, and recovery mode ) and holding the power, still nothing happens. what should i do...?? does that means my cellphone is dead forever? :crying::crying:
You should have put it in a bowl of dry rice for a couple of days to completely dry it out. I think you turned on your phone too soon with the risk of having it f**cked for good.
You seem more accident prone than Mr Bean.
Stick it on eBay

when i plugged it into my pc, it works, it says that device is not recognized but it still shows, i think it might be some hope, can somebody help me
Unfortunately it is dead, because you did not wait til it dryed out before starting. You fried the flash chip which contains the information for the phone to run.
Only way to fix it is to replace the motherboard. Which means it becomes a new phone with different IMEI.

plug in the charger and let it charge for few hours. You should have left the phone to dry before switching on

will it cost much?
I doubt there's anyone here who can tell you how much. That will depend on how much parts & labour are in your country. Send it in & find out.
Today I just wanted to uninstall Temple Run from my Moto E. I followed the standard procedure and suddenly as I dropped the icon in the uninstall menu, the Motorola boot icon appeared and the phone switched off. I tried to boot it into fast bootloader but nothing happened. I dont really know what has happened with my phone since the notification LED is blinking randomly even though the screen and everything else is not working. When I tried calling my phone number it says phone switched off. What has happened with my phone? What can I do so that my can start again
Try holding Power+vol up+vol down together for 10+ seconds.
If it doesn't boot up, connect it to the charger for a few hours and try again.
That too is not working I guess it is hard bricked and I will have to take it to the service center. I failed to understand though how an unrooted phone with stock rom could possibly get so damaged just with normal usage. Although the possibility of a virus is very less could it be the reason?
