My bootloader is unlocked.
After flashing a new pre-rooted boot image, my Xperia P decided to throw itself into a boot loop. I've tried flashing a stock kernel.sin file but that didn't do anything..
I've got fastboot/ADB and flashtool, I just don't know what to do to restore it back to normal. :crying:
I can't factory reset via the PC Companion because it recognizes unknown software and won't let me do anything.. anyone know what I should do?!
Thanks!
Turn off with power and volume up button and flash the stock kernel or download on from the development. If that doesn't help than reflash with flashtool

I have a rooted SE wt19i with CWM recovery installed and yesterday I wiped all the data, cache and system files to install Minimul Triumph ROM.
When I rebooted my phone it was stucked at the First Sony Ericsson screen and didnt boot into recovery. I have a Backup On My SD.
Please Help
have you tried flashing back to the original firmware using flashtool?
Yes i DId try but it doesnt even go to flash mode
Edit:I finally managed to go to flash mode. I flashed the firmware succesfully thanks kevin
First, I cannot find that kind of ROM for WT19i, could be wrong ROM to install. You can only install ROMs, that are built for your phone.
Second, you must have custom kernel to boot into custom ROM. Stock kernel only works with stock ROM. First install custom kernel(there's plenty of them in Development section, like X Kernel, Rage Kernel, bbooff's kernel etc) and then via CWM install custom ROM(install from sdcard).
Most custom kernels include CWM.
Please help me

If it connects in flashmode just use pcseus to repair the phone or use flashtools to flash stock fw back on it

Hi everbody
I tried to install this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707876 but when I finish the instalation, the phone just bricked at the sony ericsson logo. I realy need help. :crying:
Sorry for my English.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Did you install the recommended kernel? Did you wipe what had been asked to be wiped in the thread? Did you wait for at least a few minutes before concluding that your device is bricked? Did you attempt to enter CWM and try to restore a backup? Did you try to boot into CWM and install another ROM which had previously worked for you?
All those things needs to be done before you can call your device a brick. It is no where near to brick I suppose.
Anyways, if nothing works, try to flash any official firmware for your device using flashtool.
Also, check the First Aid thread that had been pinned up in this forum.
Thanks,
Rick

it happens to me if ur phone can go to flashmode... then u can always flash the original .ftf files for mango... or u can also use wotan client... it also hapens to me when i acidentaly flash wrong kernel...
i hope this gives u any idea....
Don't worry It's not bricked, it just wont load the OS (ROM). If you have locked bootloader, then flash official firmware through PC Companion (SEUS), if you have an unlocked bootloader then flash the official firmware (ROM) through Flashtool which you can find here, and you need to download appropriate ROM for your device which you can find here. Hope I helped.

If you can enter flash mode, then use flash tool.
Unlock bootloader, install custom kernel, install the ROM once again and you're done.
No need to install stock ROM first, if your target is installing the custom ROM.
SOLVED
I want to tank you all for your tips, you all been helpfull.
I used the Pc companion and put my mini pro with the orignal rom again.
Thank you all one more time :good:

Please flash the unbricking ftf (link was posted by xhanafix) and afterwards the stock rom ftf again.
And NEVER EVER apply updates over the air again! Flash them with flashtool or use custom roms!

im using flashing .58 via flash tool and it said - android version/kernel version:-exec'/system/bin/sh'failed: No file or directory(2)-
First you power off your phone then hold the volume down button then connect to flashtool to flash firmwares
And you need adb drivers installed, find them in the flashtool folder or just download my app (romhub.codeplex.com)

Hit thanks if I helped
I don't get it. Why exactly can't you flash with flashtool? No PC?
If you can get into flashmode, then flashtool should work just fine.
In most cases, getting stuck on the SE logo means you've got a kernel-ROM mismatch. Flashing the correct kernel should allow the ROM to boot. Mind telling which kernel & ROM you're on?
Sometimes it happens

Folks,
I was trying to install Custom ROM from here:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603919
After installing the ROM, now my Neo V is stuck at SONY logo and doesn't move forward :crying: I had backed my ROM thru CWM, but it won't even go into the recovery mode now. I even tried to flash the 4.1.B.0.587 ftf file using flashtool, but to no avail.
I was on a rooted but Stock ROM 4.0.4 build 4.1.B.0.587. Please see attached screenshots for more details. Please help. Thanks.
Resolved it myself by doing a repair thru PC Companion. :good:
power off ur fone ( remove battery and put it back again ) ... then through flash tool go to flash mode and select 4.0.4 ICS 4.1.B.0.587(FTF file) then wait till the flash tool prepared the frimware to flash then hold back buttin and connect ur fone to PC
Flash a new ftf file
Just reflash the stock ROM,using flashtool...
If u get any error in flashtool, then try flashing another ftf...

1) problem is solved! people, read replyes before you reply
2) is it necessary to suggest flashtool 3 times?
I was willing to flash custom CM 9.1 ROM on my Xperia S so I unlocked the bootloader as per steps everything went well. When I reboot it shows FXP logo and then it is stuck at Xperia logo. While flashing boot.img I believe something broke bootloader that stopped me from booting into original ICS, I then flashed custom ROM using CWM but same result. Initially I couldn't get it into flashmode or fastboot mode. So after lot of tries I gave it to Sony repair center.
Update is that Sony folks tried it with emma tool n they couldn't flash in flash mode. They said it goes in flash mode but leaves n reboot.
Good news is i could get phone in both flash n fastboot. I downloaded official stock ftf rom for my region but it aborts at kernel.sin flashing. i have tried all the combination of settings suggested like exclude TA, no wipe data n logs etc. Nothing works.
I extracted kernel.sin from stock rom n used it all o flash thru fastboot. it is now showing Sony logo but now no os is available to boot.
Few people said it could be damage boot loader or TA n flashing locked boot loader might fix it. my settings are not to allow app from unknown sources so it doesn't work either.
so does anyone know how to fix soft bricked xperia s with above conditions.
Try to Exclude kernel in flashtool n try again

If I exclude kernel it fails at fotakernel, and then subsequently at amss_fsg, apps_log, and eventually if we exclude them also at system.sin.
Which I don't believe needs to be excluded from flashing list. Any ideas what is wrong?
Try a different pc
R: [Q] How to repair damaged bootloader
Did you install the 202 FXP ROM? To get it work I had to wipe all after I flashed it otherwise it would be stock on booting... I say you that because I have a similar problem with it on my Xperia U however I didn't have any kind of problem on flashing stock ROM :/
