[Q] X10mini permanently bricked? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi! i have a big problem! A friend tried to flash something on his x10mini and i think he bricked it and so i will try to bring it back to life! But its harder than i thought! The bootloader is unlocked! The device doesnt boot up after pressing the power button, there is only a short vibration and the screen stays black! I think, charging the phone with the charger doesnt work too, because no led lights up!
So i have tried to flash the stock firmware via flashtool! When i connect the phone to my pc with usb, the green led lights up and it is shown as a connected device in flashtool! But after 15 seconds the connection is interrupted for about 2 seconds! And this happens over and over again, so flashing something is not possible!
My next attempt was the repair function from Sony PC Companion! After pressing the power button + back button the software tells me, that there is no firmware available for the x10mini (and yes, i am in the repair mode )! But afterwards the green led stays on without this rebooting problem after 15 seconds, but this doesnt help me...
Is there anything else i can do? Or is it possible to solve this rebooting problem during the flash-mode!
Every help is appreciated! Thanks!

Use Sony Ericsson update service!! And repair it

[Q] Xperia Sola won't boot

Hi, I just got my new xperia sola for 2 days. I enjoyed myself with making it look nice by adding the GO launcher etc... When I turned off my phone last night, it won't boot again. I can press as many times as I want but nothing happens. I just charged it all night and even when plugged in it doesn't do anything.
Anyone who can help?
have u tried hard reset? i dont know if this will work with sola hold power button + volume up (this is the hard reset for xperia s), look @ your manual for the hard reset option.

u need using flash mode ( volume up + usb plug in) by flashtools to test ur phone still work or not ( if it works, the flashtools will remind u the phone is pluged in). If it works, u can flash ur phone completely with a FTF; If not, u should Return to Factory Service.

Flash it with flashtool,press volume up button before connecting your phone to PC
And you have Xperia S,why post here instead of Xperia S Q&A forum?

Probably software. Repair the phone with pc companion or flash/install stock rom with flashtool.
Search Google for pc companion repair xperia.

Hard bricked Z2 - any ideas how to fix it?

Hello,
I just flashed this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/rom-zyxxos-5-1-1-v1-0-pure-stable-fast-t3229169
on my z2 (D6503). Yes, I know how dumb I am.
So the thing is, the phone won't boot.
Nothing happens.
No LED's, holding power button + vol up also doesn't work.
Red power button also doesn't work.
When I connect the phone to the PC nothing happens. It won't get detected.
Any idea how could I fix this, or is it hard bricked forever?
Update1: When I connected the phone to the pc and disconnected the battery from the mainboard the red light started blinking.
have you tried flashing a normal z2 rom?

Nothing works. No flashmode, no fastboot. It doesn't turn on. It's completely dead.
start the flashing process with flashtool and your phone disconnected
Hold Power button and the volume UP button until you feel your phone vibrate 3 times. Now its off.
when the program asks hold volume down and connect it to the pc/mac.
Hope this helps otherwise i dont know.

Guys, please read the post.
Nothing works.
Vol Up + Power button does nothing.
Anyway, I have access to battery so it's off for sure.
i have read the post and i am wasting time trying to help you. Though maybe you didnt hold them long enough..
anyway
try
pressing and holding all 3 buttons (power,vol+and vol-) all at the same time till it vibrates once then let go of the power button and vol+ but keep holding vol - while plugging in the usb cable this MiGHT boot your phone into flash mode
Have you make the phone works?? I am in the same situation! No buttons work, no power, no volume, no red reset, neither testpoint, when i plug it to the magnetic port screen shows sony logo, left for some minutes just let the phone overheat and no more! Plug battery out and turn off, but no more! Completely dead!
