No its not bricked. It happened to my phone too. I'm assuming that you're trying to root the ics stock rom using Doomlord's method. So flash the stock kernel for sk17 again.
1. turn on USB debugging.
2. turn on unknown sources.
3. change connectivity mode to mass storage.
flash the MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel.ftf kernel again. turn off the phone, and reconnect in flashmode and then run runme.bat from Doomloards rooting kit. It worked for me before. Several times

Please post all questions here in the Q&A sub-forum where they belong.
Thanks

Try rooting with flashtool. If you don't know how to do that, please check out the pinned rooting guide
Make sure that you turned on following things:
Developer options--->usb debugging
Security--->unknown sources
Xperia--->connectivity--->mass storage mode

+1 and use flashtool.
I hope you installed the proper adb drivers... For XMP...
I don't know if flashtool require drivers or not...
(I use a different toolkit for rooting and flashing)
But for detection of device, driver should be installed

[Q] [HELP] TouchScreen and soft keys wont work St15i

Hello.....
my friend installed ultimat HD ( ics rom ) on his phone ( st15i with locked bootloader) and when he was installing that he choose wrong rom in installation ( he choose LWW ) and after it he lost touch.....
i found some ways in xda threads like installing HyBrom_v10 but NOT working for fixing problem i unlocked bootloader and i did same agian not workd i tried some other way but still not working
i've to say that when i flashing Hybrom_10 i have touch on both soft keys and touchscreen but touch point is not correctly on finger its on another parts of screen......
the metod that i tested...
lunatic2nuts :
-STEP 1: Install lastest firmware .62 for st15i. - use Flashtool
-STEP 2: Then via CM from zip install hybrom_v10. for minipro (sk17i)
-STEP 3: Then again flash lastest firmware .62 for st15i
And in future be carefull, and stay away from minipro ROMs
is there anybody that can help me
i have the same problem bro...
you can try to flash stock ginger first and relock bootloader...
and update via SEUS...
maybe you're problem has fix....
if not...
try to service centre,,,,
I had same problem, i accidently installed something on my xperia mini which was for mini pro which caused touch screen to stop working, i flashed different stock firmware and so on, still the touch screen wouldnt work
i flashed Xperia Active (ST17i) firmware 4.0.2.A.0.42_CE.ftf onto my xperia mini (st15i) in flashtool, then flashed stock mini firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 afterwards
my touchscreen is working again

Only method that worked.
Dear Mods, could You make this thread sticky please???
I hate to rain on the parade, but it doesn't seem to work for me.
Is there anything a new user like me might have missed?
I have flashtool installed, along with the drivers. Flashing itself works without a problem, so I think I didn't screw up there.
I also triple-checked that I have the right firmware files and everything.
Like many, I've settled on trying random combinations of firmwares and roms now.

Being fairly new to everything around here, I'm not 100% sure, but I do think so. Flashtool says "Bootloader Status: Rooted" whenever I flash something.

[Fix][Xperia mini]Ultimate fix for bricked touch screens

Hi
With this method you can fix your touch problem if you flashed a wrong rom
Things we need:
Flash tools
Rage kernel gb
Stock .62 firmware for your device(ftf)
wrong rom that bricked your touchscreen
What should we do:
1:flash your device gb .62 firmware
2:flash rage kernel
3:flash that wrong rom again
4:if wrong rom was ics,rom will not boot then remove the battery to turn phone off then flash .62 firmware again if it was gb,do the same work
5:wait until stock rom boots the touch will be fixed
6:if touch screen fixed,press thanks button
I tested this method two times and worked
Devices that unbricked with this method:
Mini
Mini pro
Lww

Thing is: I don't know what rom initially broke the touchscreen since I got the phone in this condition, hoping for an easy fix
I don't think there's a way to tell what rom was on there....so my best bet is still random flashing, right?

I used Sony Update Service to install official ICS but suddenly PC is turned off and the process is stopped. Now, the phone is not starting nor charging. When I connect charger or connect to PC, red notification LED blinks for a few times. Need Help.

The process was interuppted.. So its not starting.. Download .587 ftf file.. Search here on xda in neo general threads.. Use flashtool and connect your phone in flashmode and flash the ftf file.. I hope your flashmode is working.. If you are not rooted, then go to service centr striaght away.. They might do it free if you are under warranty.. For further info read stickies thread in neo dev forum..

Anyways, good for you
Coming to your problem, if you haven't rooted it, how could you even think of going to recovery or connecting it in fastboot mode!!!??
It isn't possible!
Anyway, just flash the stock ftf via FlashTool. It'd be alright!
