I have ran SEUS and restored my X10 to Stock 2.3.3
Then I rooted the phone using the newest version of flashtool
Then ran the plugin/bootloader unlock option in flashtool
Then when I reconnect the phone in flash mode, The phone does not enter flash mode and flashtool displays that the phone has been removed and the phone starts up to the Sony Ericsson screen.
Kindly help me and advice on how I can achieve bootloader unlock.
U are doing right thing pal it just the usb connection is a bit poor on our phone. Remove battery for 10-20 seconds, reimsert battery, wait bout a munute, then connect on flash mode. May take couple attempts but the way u doing it is correct

Thank you for the comment. I'll keep trying, finger crossed
I can't seem to get mine past 2.1...... tried to flash after root and all and after I learned the weird recovery process. Flashed one that was safe for locked and unlocked BL but it loops. Even flashed some initD file that the OP of that rom said to flash right after and it is still nil.......

No luck
Must have tried at least a hundred times.. Still no luck with mine.. Anymore suggestions ? Anyone ?
Try just plugging it in and not holding back button. Does that work?

Are u trying to flash a 2.3.3 rom on 2.1? If u have u will have issues. If u did above grab flashtool and flash
global generic 2.3.3 firmware. Then flash the rom.

Thanks for the reply.
There was no problem when flashing kernel but when I want to unlock the bootloader, it gave me the log below (I'm using latest flashtool 0.7.1.0) :

I tried several method to unlock bootloader but failed. I've even flashed flashed to stock 2.1, flashed the downgrade kernel and tried to unlock via X10 Bootloader Unlock Tool 0.1.1 (old method, i know). I've check my phone and it is good for unlocking (via s1tool).
Can anyone suggest any method I can try?

Which version of flashtool are you using? get the most recent one.
I had a similar problem unlocking th bl for a friend too and it got stuck at that part bcz i was using an older version of flashtool
I'm using flashtool 0.7.1.0, the latest one, i think.
I've flashed, root and install recovery with no error.
Except unlocking the bootloader..
Guys,
I've finally unlocked my bootloader using "The proper method".
The mistake (i think) was, I was on generic 2.3.3 when I use this method.
I flashed back to generic 2.1 and ran the unlock tool. When finished I check back with S1tool, my device show "r" and not "R" Yeaa...
Note that, I failed to unlock my bootloader when I was on 2.1 and 2.3.3 using latest Flashtool.
Thanks guys.

Thanx, Itamar
How did you unlock your bootloader?
Im not at a pc so cant check your link or give you one (edge network is fun)
Google this "xperia x10 unlocking bootloader"
First result xda how to
Make sure you test what files you need
Read it very carefully!
I doubt whatever rom you use makes a difference
Im sorry that i could not provide anymore help the guide just says it all i suppose!
Good luck!
EDIT; incase you do not want to unlock boot loader then use roms for locked bootloader!!
If not sorry you just didnt provide that much info

Identify your simlock certificate status. download S1tool here.
- open S1tool and click "DO JOB" on the right.
- turn off your phone, and connect USB cable while pressing BACK button (right button) of your phone.
- check your phone's simlock certificate. if identified as "NOT RECOGNIZED", you can follow the_laser's bootloader bypass method.
How to...
- download qsd8250.7z (courtesy of the_laser).
- flash your phone with standard/generic 2.1 firmware. (PLEASE DO MAKE A BACK-UP BEFORE FLASHING)
- extract qsd8250.7z and run "qsd8250_semc.cmd" from that folder.
- turn on the phone, enable USB debugging and connect the USB cable. just follow the command. you'll see message below

if you had the same message... you had bypassed the bootloader. it's now unlocked.
- to make sure it's already been unlocked, runt S1tool again.
- the phone should be running S1_EROM ver "r8A022" (with uncapitalized letter 'r')
NOTE: This procedure is an excerpt from the_laser's thread above. I hope I had made it easier for you. This method worked on mine.

try to flash standard/generic 2.1 firmware and unlock BL thru flashtool then.
optionally, you can do the bypass method via "qsd8250_semc.cmd" if flashtool failed.

you'll use flashtool for flashing .ftf firmwares.
use recovery for flashing .zip file. ie roms, add-ons etc.
CM7.2 should be flashed with CWM recovery, which you could also install via flashtool.
just refer in the thread provided above. you'll get used to it..
unlocked BL should never get locked unless you do so.
ganbatte!!!
Ok, but how do I flash with flashtool - is it like flashing kernel?
And to update I do so with SE PC-companion?
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
yes. same process as what you did in your first post.
and make sure you already had generic 2.1 and 2.3 downloaded and copied into C:\Flashtool\firmwares folder. you should see identical files below when you open flashtool, clicked on thunder icon (utmost left button) and chosen flashmode.
then connect your phone in flashmode when prompted (phone turned off, pressing back button while connecting USB cable).
RECAP:
- flash generic 2.1
- root, if not rooted (you can hover your mouse on every icon to identify each)
- unlock bootloader (clicking Plugins-> bootloader ->run)
- install recovery (cross icon), you can install both 0.3 and CWM5. if you want to.
- flash generic 2.3
- flash FXP kernel
on this part, I assumed you already had your CM7.2 rom (.zip) on your SD card.
- boot into CWM recovery (via flashtool or pressing volume down button when blue lights on during kernel boot)
- in CWM recovery mode, make a factory reset. format system in mounts and storage.
- mount data, cache, system, sd-ext (you should see "unmount data" and so on...)
- install .zip on sd-card, and choose the rom in .zip file.... wait for installation.
- reboot, if everything goes right...congrats! you already had a custom rom installed... :good:

You must reflash stock rom in flashmode. Just select the stock gingerbread 4.0.2.A.0.42 firmware and flash it. Do you know how to do that?
can i try other custom rom?

If your bootloader is unlocked, sure. Otherwise, can you enter cwm?

Is your bootloader locked or unlocked? Because if it's unlocked and you chose the right kernel and rom, maybe you forgot to do a factory reset or wipe cache?
it is unlocked 7 months ago, i tried some gb roms and this ics rom, but now only i had this type of problem, that why i little worried about.
May b just reflash the right kernel (kernel panic works fine with r6) then factory reset,wipe,dalvik cache and format system and flash the rom. I hope that should solve your problem. Otherwise you can always try stock kernel & rom suggested by mihahn
Try Pestanoid v3
Can you try this my ROM Pestanoid v3 ...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1905976
Just try another rom+kernel and remeber: You will have to do a factory reset and wipe cache/dalvik cache, but only format system if it's required in rom thread! Otherwise don't format it

Also turn usb debugging on when using flashtools!!
Thanks for all, now it is solved with another rom and Mesa kernel. But now i am think to re-flash new rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908269,

Stuck after SONY logo
I tried everything bt nothing is helpin me out to solve ths issue.
I flashed my cell again n again to stock ROM. bt, still my XMP is not able to boot or charge. I've repaired my cell through SUS, bt still same problem. what to do ?? I am on stock kernel n Stock ROM (ICS 4.1.B.0.587). My Bootloead is Locked.
Pls Reply ASAP.
First of all dont panic. you have NOT BRICKED ur phone.
Just flash any other kernel and any other ROM. your device should work fine...
Once I had the same problem.
The solution is flash your mobile with another kernel and wipe everything.
Use a custom rom.if nothing happen reunlock ur bootloder with testpoint method.

You can even flash on locked bootloader
So you download the stock firmware .ftf (for ics 4.1.B.0.587) for your device. (e.g. mini=st15=smultron, minipro=sk17=mango, active=st17=satsuma, livewithwalkman=wt19=coconut). Then you install flashtool and install all drivers for all devices/modes from flashtool installation folder - drivers
Now you place the downloaded .ftf in flashtool - firmwares and delete all other files in there. Afterwards you launch flashtool
Now click on the flash - flashmode - select the .ftf - click okay - now turn off phone, take out battery, wait 10 seconds, reinsert battery, hold volume down and while holding volume down simply connect phone via usb to your pc, the green led will light up and the flashing process starts. Now wait until it has finished, disconnect phone and boot it. Done :good:

Hi!
I have a Xperia X10 Mini Pro (U20) with Stock Firmware (after recovery with "UpdateService" from SE).
I have installed CWM successfully with "CWMInstaller - Windows - v5".
When I try to install "MiniCM7-2.2.1-mimmi" (or 2.2.2) it says that I need a nAA-Kernel but successfully installs CM7.
When I do a reboot CWM says that "recovery is bad and has to be renewed". After that all I get is the white "Sony Ericsson" lettering (again with the option to start CWM when pressing the back button several times).
So I tried to follow this "Bootloader and kernel guide" and unlock my bootloader first using Flashtool. But when the phone restarts it "hangs" on the white "Sony Ericsson" lettering. When I try again, Flashtool tells me that it is not possible to unlock this bootloader.
My phone is produced 10W42 - could it really be that the ancient stock firmware is the only one which works?
All I want is a more modern and fast (lightweight) android version to use my old phone furthermore.
Thanks in advance for your advice and help!

When you install CWM it is installed in the system part of the ROM. When you installed MiniCM7 it got wiped out, because MiniCM7 is for the nAa-kernel, and in that kernel CWM is built in. Which means it doesn't need to be in the MiniCM7 ROM. That's why you lost it.
And ofcourse it 'hangs' on the white SE lettering, because the ROM you installed does not work with the Sony Ericsson kernel.
You say you unlocked the bootloader, so why don't you flash the nAa-kernel?
Prepare flashtool to flash it, then attach the usb-cable and press home- and back-buttons together to force a restart. If the bootloader unlock was successful the flash will get through and after that, you'll have CWM back and you will continue to boot into the ROM too.
And be very careful not to flash the x10blrelock.ftf by accident, it will definitely break your phone. Best is to remove that from the flashtool/firmwares folder before you proceed.

Thanks for your answer, SmG67.
The problem is, that I have _tried_ to unlock the bootloader, but it did not finish. The "s1tool" still shows a capital R in the version ("RUNNING S1_EROM VER 'R8A029'") which means "not unlocked".
I also tried to install the kernel "U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06.ftf" but this does not work as the bootloader is locked.
So can you give me a tip, how I could move on?

You should not have proceeded to install the ROM in the first place if you didnt unlock it. Open SONY Update Service in PC, click repair and follow what they say. When you connect your phone to PC for repair, follow what SmG67 told you

I am unsettled now, so I want to make sure to do the right things:
I have "repaired" the phone using UpdateService and made the first setup - phone is now running and USB debugging is switched on.
Then I started flashtool and clicked on the flash-button (U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06.ftf); followed the instructions but it quits working after phone restart with the following output:

Root the phone again with flashtool and then unlock the bootloader using flashtool. After that, you should be able to flash the kernel.

Thanks to your reply, I was able to root the device with flashtool. Afterwards I successfully started Superuser and switched off the phone again.
While unlocking the bootloader (button BLU) with flashtool afterwards it gave me the following output:

There are no errors this time, but again nothing more happens: phone is loading and showing orange LED.
I am surprised of the log line saying that "Bootloader status is UNROOTABLE"?
btw: S1info still gives me a uppercase "R" for "not unlocked".
Can I proceed flashing the U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06.ftf?

That will fail since your bootloader is still locked. Not sure why flashtool failed to unlock it, but maybe you can try the manual method, as linked to in the opening post of the kernel.

You mean to unlock bootloader with "msm7227_semc.cmd" as stated in the "Bootloader and kernel guide" (from above)?
Because this always leads to:
Code:
process requires standard 2.x android firmware.
Drücken Sie eine beliebige Taste . . .
Getting ROOT rights.
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
and the phones LED flashing red sometimes
Thats not the first device I am using custom firmware with, but this phone resists all my attempts.
Finally I managed to run CM7 on my phone following this german instruction.
My mistake was that during the flash process the phone has to be switched on normally and not to be connected in flashmode (pressing back button while plugging USB in).
Thanks for your suggestions and hints!
Hey,
so.. I want to install a custom rom on my X10 mini pro. I have experience on doing this, because I already rooted many smartphones. But this one is just trolling me.
I used this tutorial (sorry, but it's german). Everything went well till Step 4.7.
I plug in the USB cable, let the flashtool get informations about the device, go to Plugins > Bootloader Unlock and run it.
Then I unplug the cable, start the device in flashmode and theeeen flashtool wants to start unlocking, but the device just shuts down for a moment (green light goes off) and then it reboots into flashmode again.
Here is the output from flashtool

Code:
13/022/2013 17:22:01 - INFO - Loader : S1_Loader_Root_8e35 - Version : R4A045 / Boot version : R8A029 / [COLOR="Red"]Bootloader status : UNROOTABLE[/COLOR]
Status : unrootable? So does that mean I don't have any chance to root my device? Is there a way to bypass this?
I'd appreciate every kind of help!

Well, seems like I got it. I've installed a custom kernel (nAa 2.6) but now the device won't boot anymore
It stucks at the nAa-Bootscreen. What can I do now?

Can you tell me how? My pc doesn't detect the device if it's in the bootscreen. Do I have to go into the flashmode?
If yes, there's one little problem. I can't turn it off And if I pull out the battery and put it back in, then the device automatically starts into that bootscreen. ._______.
aaaaand.. I dont have any recovery installed O__o

Recovery is in the kernel, use that
Reboot is Home- and Powerbuttons together
If you use the JB-kernel It should boot into Recovery, if that doesn't happen flash the kernel again, that might do the trick. Otherwise you have to press the back-button repeatedly when the phone starts up.

Thanks alot. It helped. Now I am able to boot into recovery.
BUT! I can't install any rom!? I've tried LiteCM and PureSlim.
All I get is this message :
By the way - I installed this kernel now (U20_nAa-jb-03_2.6.29.6-nAa-jb-03)
I also tried to use the newest kernel (U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06), but I get the same result
And yes, I did a full wipe and formatted /system /cache and /data.
Now I am a bit helpless It's a JB Kernel and also JB Roms, so why won't they install? :'(
Edit : After trying and trying and trying I got the xperiabean installed.. Thanks again SmG <3

I think lightCM and PureSlim both look for kernel version 2.6.32.60. The Old JB kernel is 2.6.29.6 and the latest one (the 06) is 2.6.32.61. So you could edit the updater-script to reflect the correct version.
