[Q] Bricked phone FeraLab V4 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In the beginning i must say that i did search around but no solution finded..
So that happened: after i finished call, on my screen appeared that "Androin stopped work" (or something like that) Then i set my phone to REBOOT and phoned turned off but not on. Well i tried it manually but after pushing upper on/off button just short vibrate and nothing, phone remains black. Not even booted to CWM.
Well in similar cases usually i try to reflash kernel or rom via Flashtool or use repair phone option in Sony Update Service and go back to 2.3.
None of that this time worked for me...
Flashtool showed that error:
30/002/2012 11:02:30 - INFO - Opening device for R/W
30/002/2012 11:02:30 - INFO - Reading device information

And Sony Update Service says that there is no newest software available for my device..
Im on unlocked BL, Ferakernel 5.1 1Ghz and my device is X10i
Thank You for your suggestions

First, I don't know if we use the same Update Service. Because, in my SEUS also says that there is no newest software available, to be precise: "Your phone already have latest software". But, also says: "If you are experiencing problems with your product we recommend that you re-install the software". And "INSTALL" button shows up in the right-down corner. Click and reinstall Stock Rom. And you are not the only person who complain about this issue with SEUS. Look in pictures, and tell me if it's a same version of SEUS, and does this windows appears in your SEUS.
Here are some screenshot to aprove this claim:

And what version of Flashtool you are using??

Flashtool - i use latest one v0.9.9.0 but also i tryied older one v0.8.6.0
Se attached screenshot

Ok. But did you select X10i, when you prompted by SEUS. Look my screenshot 2. Because, on your screenshot, picture of phone (right-upper corner) is unknown.

Yes, i did select X10 and that is strange coz it didnĀ“t recognize it automatically.

Hi mate, in flash tools did check "no final verifications" its on bottom right before you flash? Because I've just flash firmwares and same thing happen to me. It's fixed by re flashing and check the "no final verication"

[Q] Confused as to what bootloop is...

Hi,
I have this behavior in my u20i phone that the phone will not boot. When i connect it to my PC, the PC detects the phone momentarily for around 5 seconds and then it disconnects and this will continue until i disconnect it. Does this mean my phone is bricked? Is this what a bootloop is? I read many threads on this forum, and for whoever was facing the problem of bootloop, he was atleast getting SE logo.
Now coming to my problem, i used s1tool to get the present details of my phone and it shows the following:
RUNNING S1_EROM VER "R8A029"
SOFTWARE AID: 0001
LOADER AID: 0001
FLASH ID: "0020/00BC"
LOADER VERSION: "R4A045"
MODEL (from GDFS): U20i
SOFTWARE VERSION: 1235-3411_2.1.1.A.0.6
CUSTOM VERSION: 1238-7170_R4B
.
.
SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE
The loader version tells me that the bootloader is not unlocked. Tried using SEUS update service to fix my phone back, but after completion, i still am stuck with this boot-looping. Any other suggestions? Any more information required to debug my problem? I had installed a custom rom which was working well (MiniCM7Pro_V21) until i restarted my phone which is when i got this problem. (had got a problem like this before but using SEUS had worked that time)
I can enter the flashmode of the phone atleast but thats it (this gives me some glimmer of hope )
My last resort will be to give my phone to the SE service guys but i wanna know what the problem is before i give it to them.
try again using SEUS????

Used SEUS 2.12.3.5, got a successful message at the end, disconnected the phone and started the phone back again, but problem still exists...Any other ideas i can try out?
Click to expand...

well that's weird.. i think the only way u can get it working is as you can get into flashmode, you can unlock bootloader then flash the nAa kernel as its got inbuilt CWM recovery,so u can get into recovery mode.. then u can flash a custom ROM.. a perfect ROM would be MiniCm7 by nAa itself n then if u want to get back to stock.. u may flash stock kernel.. then relock bootloader n then use SEUS to get back to Stock ROM.. its a long proceduce but i think it shall work.. if any query fell free to ask.hope that helps you
note: Make sure your following proper instructions while unlocking bootloader , use my tool if u want SE Tweaker Tool n follow correct instruction n read its main thread before u use it..

Tried starting the phone but am having the same problem still...
Have given the phone today to the SE guys, will let you guys knw if it gets fixed or not (they tried updating, said they used some factory sent updater which didn't work after which they said its a hardware issue, which somehow i doubt)...
Got my phone back today and its in good working condition. They said they replaced the flexicable of my minipro which was faulty. Anyway am happy that its working now and am ready to flash a rom into it again Thanks for all your help and suggestions...

[Q] BootLoop, tried everything I could find.

So... Uhhh... Sorry for posting here! I saw the video "you're a noob" and got a little scared of posting here. But its almost 3 days without my phone, so I'm a bit of desperate! >>"
So, I got a X10a, and it was with 2.1 until yesterday. I've taken courage and was going to upgrade to 2.3. Pulgged the phone, downloaded the PC Companion, begin the upgrade. Everything went ok. Then I got in the bootloop. Panic at frist the I started to look for some solution. I flashed to 2.3 x10i generic using Flashtools. Still on bootloop. Flashed to 2.1 using flashing tools, still no good. Tryed to repair with PC Companion, no good. Flashed and flashed and flashed, tryed and tryed to repair and nothing. Still on bootloop, I just can't figure out what I can do! Even formating the SD I tryed, and nothing!
So, anyone can help me? I really need help here, I just can't find anything to help me!
Thank you very much! =)
Sorry for my bad english! =/
Try to flash the ROM 2 times with SEUS if it won't work by the first time. I had such a problem once. If it won't help try to flash this ROM via flashtool, and after that just normally (using SEUS) flash to stock 2.3.3.
Good luck
About SEUS... Can I use PCC repair? Like I can't find a SEUS working, it says "Failed checking application versions, please reinstall the application and make sure you have the latest version".
And THANK YOU SO MUCH for the quick answer!! I'm kinda morning my phone here!
I'm downloading the FM you just posted! =)

Tried another cable but still no go...
Don't know what to do anymore... Everything I read say that flashing should resolve... But still don't work
Anyone got a 1.6 Stock so I can try it? Can't find a working link.
did you try rooting your phone with flashtool and install xrecovery?
you can try that might work
The phone does not start... I think for me to root and instal xrecovery I need it to be functional, right?
I have another suggestion. Have u tried flashing another baseband? one that you're sure matchs the rom you flash? If your baseband is wrong installed ROM will be stuck forever.
Sorry, but I don't understand much about baseband. Can't find a easy understanding guide. My phone is from Brazil the company is VIVO. Can you explaim for me? Or show a good guide of it please?
Thank you! =)
EDIT: So, I found a 1.6 and flashed (Old stuff, Cmd). Now here is the diference, after 1.6 I try to turn on my phone and nothing happens, just the green let flash for like 0.5 secs.
When I try to upgrade to 2.1 by flashtool it turn on the screen but just that, no se logo or nothing, and it flicks from time to time.
When flahsing from SEUS I got the same stuff for 2.1.
Got a baseband 52, 54a, 55a and 49i. All I could find in the internet.
Baseband 52, 54a, 55a and 49i no good in SEUS flash.
With generic 2.1 from jakuburban: Tried 54i, 58i and 49i.
No dice... For Crist sake I'm kinda desperate right now!!! >>""""""""""""""""

To flash the baseband's use flashtool (can be downloaded on dev's section). I don't remember what baseband goes with each system version. I can only tell that 2.1.71 only works with Android 2.3.X
PS: finally found the baseband thread, where more detailed info is available: Baseband

Are u using a X10a or a X10i ?
I think it's X10a for your country (not sure but...)
So the baseband might be 2.1.65 or 2.1.54... 2.1.71 is for X10i according the baseband thread...

Xperia Mini Pro bricked?

Hey everybody!
I need a little help: I wanted to install the Unlimited ROM on my BL locked Xperia Mini Pro... I download the file, put it on my SD card, insert the SD card and boot my phone into recovery.
I format System, Data, and Cache, and go to flash the zip. When I tried, it said there was no SD card inserted!
Because I am a complete idiot, I try to reboot and it obviously won't go into recovery...
I already tried to flash the stock ROM with Flashtools, but it failed.
Does anyone have a solution to my problem?
Thanks in advance,
MustangEmile
Flashtool should work well, tell us which error you get
Or you try the repair options of PC Companion or Sony Update Service

I will try PC Companion, but I doubt it'll work...
Thanks for answering,
MustangEmile
EDIT: PC Companion doesn't recognize the phone...
Whenever I soft-brick my xmp, flashing a new kernel and starting over does the trick, but considering flashtool is not working for you... that's a bit more complicated than I thought.
First off, have you checked your FTF's integrity? exact file size? checksum? have you successfully used it in the past?
Also, can you boot to fastboot mode? if so, unlock your bootloader via sony's dev site and flash a custom kernel, as most of them have CWM built in. It's possible to start over from there.
Maybe it shut down when the flashing is about to start

I highly doubt it: it's still on at the end, but thanks for your hypothesis

Try reinstalling the drivers and either connect the phone before selecting the ftf that you want to flash or select ir first and when the popup to connect the phone appears, connect it

My apps keep closing and i cannot use flashtool

Hello,
I have a Sony Xperia U and I try to install a new firmware but I can't.
When I use flashtool, i have this message :
Current device : ST25i - YT900389W7 - 1261-7887_R2E - 1254-3522_6.0.B.3.184 - WORLD_6.0.B.3.184
- INFO - Start Flashing
- INFO - Processing loader.sin
- INFO - Checking header
- INFO - Flashing data
- INFO - Processing of loader.sin finished.
- INFO - Loader : S1_Root_3065 - Version : R5E003 / Boot version : R10E013 / Bootloader status : NOT_ROOTABLE
- INFO - Ending flash session
- ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CODE="0026";ERR_DYNAMIC="08 : TA flush failed";
I tried to re install the drivers, to change the cable, to change the firmware, to use an other version of flashtool but it didn't work. I had already installed 3 firmwares before without any problem.
My phone is out of use, the apps keep closing, i cannot delete or save things on my phone because when I switch it on, it comes back to the previous setting.
My bootloader is locked and i can't unock it because of my rooting status is "NOT allowed" (operator...).
These past 3 weeks i couldn't use my phone, please help me!
Thank you
Try Update or repair with PC Companion

Hi, thanks for your answer.
I already tried with PC Companion and SEUS, it tells me to try again and again. I can't even get my backups, and I can't update the software.

In what stage exactly does PCC tell you to try again, does it begin the flash process and fails(after you connect with volume up) or before?

When I use PCC, it downloads the update, then it tells me to disconnect my phone, to switch it off (and wait 5 s), then connect it with the button - (volume down) pressed.
After few seconds "an error had occured" and it proposes me to try again. It is the error number 100. So I think the flash process fails after the connection.
When I use flashtool, it's the same : after connecting the phone with the volume down button pressed, the error "flush failed" above appears.
I noticed that i cannot delete nor add any file in my phone, maybe the problem comes from the storage? Even when I restore the factory defaults, nothing happens, i still have the apps.
Thanks for helping me

I don't think so.
What about sending it to service?

I'll try but I don't think that it si still under warranty and I ve installed a custom firmware so my operator will never take a look at it...

Hi, there is no way to fix it with a software. I give it to my operator and they changed the mother card in the phone. So be really careful when you use falshtool...

OKAY [ 3.793s]

I use the newest flashtool which is currently 0.9.23.2.
Every time I got this same errors:

I've tried:
flashtool with different firmwares - always with the very same result
Sony PC Companion - it desires an update and won't work unless it can get one, I was thinking that it it uses different server for updates and different for firmware downloading I can use that, not sure if worth the effort see EDIT
Xperia Companion - turns of my phone, asks for connecting in flash mode aaaaand never goes to the next step ("simulated battery remove trick" does not help either)
OTA - won't come in, I've tried a number of tricks including clearing data on Google Services Framework (or something) rebooting a phone having it turned off and so on
great number of factory resets
Should I through this worthless **** away or there is something else I can try?
EDIT:
When I tired to use Sony PC Companion (blocking internet access on startup) I was able to start the procedure but I got an error saying that Sony Update Engine could not be installed (and some error code here)
open up the flash tool and then click on the lighting in the top left corner then click flash and select your frimware to flash... wait for it to finish the make sure that your phone is not connected to PC and turned off,,, a pop up will come up that says you have to press volume down and hold it while you are connecting you usb to pc then it should flash it if not then i dont know whats your problem lol haha

Totally not helped. Thanks for making me believe for a second that someone has actually helped and this forum actually has some helpful people. Faith in humanity restored (for a split second).

And mysteriously enough I'm failing to follow those steps? This error is not totally uncommon and you could have given a number of suggestions what it is that I 'm doing wrong (releasing volume down to early, wrong firmware or perhaps trying stimulated battery removal) instead of that you've given all the steps that I must have known before (without them I couldn't be able to produce the log that is shown above).
If you consider your post a genuine attempt of helping I'd humbly advise you reconsidering what you consider help.
Although I do appreciate that you gave it a try anyway and I mean it.
