I had the same problem with xRecovery.
before I put the beta 2, I have made a backup with xRecovery to save my 2.1 [Eminence v1.2]
then I stucked with SE white logo, I pulled the battery out, rebooted and went back to xRecovery..
so If you didn't made any backup, use Flash Tool or reflash.. same thing, same result

The X10 is impossible to brick, that is about the only good thing with the locked bootloader that SE uses.
You should be able to resolve your problem by starting PC companion agian, and follow the instructions as you did the first time (when you pulled the cable). When inserting the USB while holding the back-key down the phone enters flash mode, this flash mode does not get overwritten when flashing the android OS, so even if the OS is corrupted the flashmode still works, and can be used to rewrite a fresh copy of android to your phone.
Its an easy fix,flash the phone on flash tool

Hi all,
I tried to put a other custom rom on my x10 but it didnt work:
First i rooted the phone, then istalled xrecovery then i booted into xrecovery and selected custom rom, now my phone booted but its stuck on the Sony Ericsson screen
Flashtool is able to root the phone but then the debugging mode error comes,
Seus cant connect with the phone because i cant boot into save mode, also flashtool cant connect with the phone if i try to flash it.
im out of ideas!
HELP!
sorry for this bump but im desperate!
First of all. Was your root successful? If yes then does your base band support the rom that you're trying to install because one gets stuck in the boot loop if the baseband is not correct for that particular rom.
Cheers!

It says the root was succesfull, but then you have to enable USB-Debugging mode but thats impossible beacause there isnt a correct rom on the phone so you cant boot and enable USB-Debugging mode.
I had the same problem 2 days ago.
I fixed it by downloading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959821 this one
Place it into flashtool, and wait till flashtool gives you the message to connect your phone in flashmode.
(im probably sure you know how to, but ill explain it anyways, remove your battery (because its stuck on the logo), wait a few seconds. put it back in. hold the back button, and connect the usb wire, untill the ledlight turns green.. fast press 'ok' on the flashtool screen, otherwise your phone will go out of flashmode)
Thanks, for the reply,
Ive contacted the Phone house, and they sended it back to SE, now SE says the phone has water damage, very wierd but still ill get it back today and then try to flash it your way
hey guys while I was falshing my rom of xperia x10 via flashing tool follwed the procedures given after it completed and asked me to unplug the device and switch it on... now phone dos not boots and has got stuckd at sony ericsson logo...its not moving ahead... not even booting.. I ve tried to connect again in flashing tool flash mode still its not working .. phone automatically gets disconnected.. also wen I put the battery inside it turns on to sony ericsson logo automatically even if I dnt use power on button.. help me out... plz plz plz
Please give some info.
Have you unlocked bootloader?
What rom are you trying to flash?
When you start to flash, flashtool asks for disconnect the phone, power off and connect again with BACK button pressed. Then the process continues...
After flashing kernel you must enter to recovery and install zip file from sd-card.
Regards.
I was tryng to flash rom 3.0.1.G.0.75 on Gingerbread 2.3.3 and ya I was supposed to enter downloading mode but before I do dat phone has stuckd on... gets on wid sony ericsson logo evn if I dnt swtch on...help me..
Please, can you provide the followed procedure ?
Maybe this thread can help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226826&highlight=lock+bootloader+again
Which log do you use, PC Companion, SEUS, Flashtool...?
Do you have a CWM recovery ?
If you don't know how (or are afraid) to use flashtool...
You can do that :
1/ Launch SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) HERE
or PC Compagnion HERE
2/ Turn off your phone, remove the battery over 5 seconds, replace it.
3/ Hold the right button (the one with the arrow) and plug your phone on your computer with usb (It calls flashmode)
4/ The green led must be light on and SEUS or PCC recognize your phone...
5/ Now you just have to follow the instructions to install a stock rom.
If it doesn't help, you can use flashtool... A great tuto HERE Thanx to Crowds
With it you can unlocked the bootloader and install a new kernel with CWM recovery inside...
Install a new rom, root your phone... ans so more stuffs...
I hope it helps...
I've been told to install x recovery on the computer,take out battery n unplug the phone .Then have flash base band on computer(it will then show that its trying to download)connect phone in flash mode.to do this hold down the bottom right hand button(the back arrow)on your phone then put battery back in(KEEP HOLDING back arrow button)and plug the cable back into your phone.I hope this helps.GOOD LUCK BUDDY!
I am having the same problem with my Xperia Neo, i tried to connect my phone to PC Companion and it says. "PC Companion was unable to connect to your phone, please disconnect and connect again"
My phone is just sitting there with the words "Sony Ericsson" flashing on and off, I fear that my phone is bricked but im not 100% sure, if there is anything that can be done please help!!!

Do you did that :
Launch Pc Compagnion
Plug the phone
Mount the sd card
EDIT : Sorry i read too fast your post... Your phone can't turn on you're stuck on the bootlogo of SONY ERICSSON...
Do you plug the phone in flashmode ?

Some of the custom roms are flashed with xrecovery or cwm,
Now what kind of rom did you want to flash?
Maybe you went wrong that in procedures said "flash the rom".
Put out the battery then put in and turn your device on then restore your previous rom then try again and install(flash) new rom.
Good luck.

Now I have to get into fast boot mode to flash the original kernel.sin to get into normal mode.
Please help. I am stuck and I am trying to turn off the phone to get into fast boot.
Hold the power button and vol up for about 10 seconds, You will feel it vibrate...
Thanks a lot!!!

BUMP!
I'm having a similar problem. I managed to get the phone to fastboot mode, but when I wanted to flash the new firmware, Flashtool is stuck at the popup saying you need to unplug and replug the USB.
By stuck as in, there is no progress in Flashtool after I connected the phone in fastboot mode. Any help?
EDIT: Never mind. I tried to use a different Kernel again, and I managed to solve it. The one I use initially must be for GB.
Hi Guys,
After Updation my Xperia S is not Starting Up,
Can somebody tell me how to start it on ?
So I've got a Xperia X10 mini pro. It had a CM7.2 on it and some nAa kernel. I've downloded another rom and flash it. Everything ok.
When I wanted to reboot the phone after the flashing, CWM said something about some CWM error or something like that. I've ignored it and now the phone gets stuck at the booting process.(powers up, sony ericsson logo apears and nothing happens). If I put the battery in, it sometimes powers up by himself. I can't get in flashmode(back key, menu key...none of them works). Windows recognises something like SEMC bla bla.. I already have a rooted, flashed Xperia Neo so I'm not exacly a noobie, but I'm a noobie at x10.
So, any thoughts? Thanx alot!

You need to flash the kernel appropriate to the ROM.
You are on Stock kernel, and not some nAa one, so your last ROM had CWM (or xrecovery) included. This is not included in ROMS that run on nAa kernel because the nAa kernel has got it built-in. That's why it disappeared when you installed a new ROM, now find the kernel that belongs to it.
I can't flash any kernel, any rom or anything because the phone can't get connected to PC, no flashmode, no nothing. The led isn't blinking or anything not even when I connect the charger.

If you take out the battery it works sometimes you say, so take out your battery, f it powers up and gets stuck on the SE Logo, connect it to your pc, press power and home buttons together to get a hard reboot, as soon as the screen goes black, press the back-button to get into flashmode. ofcourse make sure your software is asking for flashmode before you do all that.
what I mean by powering up by himself is that it acts like I'm powering it up but it still get's stuck at se logo. I'll try the hard reboot thingie.
PLEASE try this.
remove your battery.
use flashtool to flash the 2.1 firmware of SE. or use SEUS.
connect your phone to the PC and be ready for flash mode.
hold the back button.
then insert the battery while holding the back button.
it will go to flashmode.
then start flashing the firmware.
afterwards you will be reverted to 2.1 eclair.
connect to usb debug
then root your phone using flashtool.
unlock the bootloader using s1tool.
flash the nAa kernel using flashtool.
put the zipROM on your SDcard.
enter the cwm recovery.
wipe data/cache/dalvik cache then flash the rom.
if you encounter an error on flashing the rom e.g(you experience flashing in just a very short time, then the rom is not flashed) format your SDcard then redo the flashing.
I hope this helps.
PS. on some cases, when your phone is bricked. you can directly flash the nAa kernel then flash the rom.

I after some research I supose I've deleted the recovery( xrecovery area). For those who say to press any combination of keys it doesn't work.
I got the phone in service, they said it needs flash but the gay phone wont comunicate with the pc so they didn't promise anything. I will return with news.

Yes, I told you that you removed xrecovery, because it was included in the ROM that used your stock kernel. You then flashed a ROM that needs a custom kernel, and it is included in the kernel then, so not in the ROM anymore. That's why you lost it. but that has nothing to do with flashmode however
thats the reason I've got it to service. Something wrong with hardware or boot area preventing the phone getting into flashmode( I suppose)...
Thanks
thanks for the thread now I able to do more than just rooting more save
The X10 mini is up and running. He had recovery and not a CWM(as I have now).
The problems was with the USB port, and it still is but I/ve managed to get it connected with Flashtool after removing and putting back the battery while holding he back key .
After 2 service shops and 2 weeks of waiting they both said to me "There is a comunication problem with the phone. Sorry!"
So, if anyone has problems like mine, they should get their usb port changed(5-10Euros) or try for as much as they need to get the phone connected( I tryied for almost 1 hour to get the green led and another half hour to get a stable connection as it whould get in flashmode but not being recognized in flashtools PS: changing the position of the data cable by standing up or down/more to the left or more to the right helps ).
Thank you all for the feedbacks!!
