Gretings, my rooted phone keeps restarting for ever. Likely after I installed busybox and made some changes with Root Toolbox Pro.
Can't even turn off. Is there a chance how to turn it off and repair the phone to bootable state?
Which phone? If you cannot pull battery, press and hold power + vol up button for about 10 seconds, ( wait for 3 vibration), this will turn phone off, then use flashtool to flash stock ftf.

Thank you, holding power+up finally turned off the phone.
Now what are chances to repair the phone booting without losing applications and settings, if any...
The exact firmware version is 6.1.1.B.1.54 on LT22i.
Is this the proper firmware to use for this?

TY. It shows the Sony Logo, then Xperia logo for few seconds and restarts.
Now I'd appreciate the workflow to restore my phone with least harm to installed system.
Is flashing stock ftf resetting to factory defaults?

Is that possible before flash copy all my phone's memory with flashtool to my HDD so that I could selectively restore data for safe apps?
The recovery went fine.
Flashed Sony Xperia P LT22i_ 6.1.1.B.1.54_Sony.ftf no reset data succesfully, phone is bootable now with all settings but unrooted
I open flashtool, flashmode, use Xperia P LT22_6.1.B.0.599_Kernel.ftf, reboot phone and the screen is dark, can't do anything with it.
Returned back to Xperia P LT22_6.1.1.B.1.54_Kernel.ftf and tried with flashtool>Unlock>Superuser or SuperSU but still no root.

Thanks. I already did a factory reset and rooted successfully. For the next time I go into such trubl, can I get a recommendation about a powerfull app that backups all my apps and SETTINGS (except firmware) from phone internal filesystem to PC's HDD (not SD card because I'm out of space), either via network or via USB connection. I've heard about Titanium Backup which probably is able to backup all I need but I'm afraid it's not able store my backups to PC.
Bootloop on Xperia u
I use an Xperia u( rooted,locked bl) with cwm touch recovery.I installed the AOKP ICS rom for locked bl on my device. Ever since then, whenever I flash a file via cwm, even if I wipe cache and dalvik cache,phone goes into bootloop and I have to unplug and replug battery to get it to work.Please help

So you did the inevitable... you got a phone that's bricked.. fear not.. this happens to all of us.. consider it a "right of passage" when it comes to dealing with custom ROM's
Here at xda, help is never too far away (I was there once too)
I've tried to get you back to functioning latest Local 2.1 with recovery (xrecovery)
0) You'll lose all data with this method....
come to terms with that... not stuff on the sd card but data of your phone, sms'es, contacts, applications etc
1) Turn off your phone
Pull the battery and reinsert it if you have to...
2) Install Flashtool
go here and downlad flashtool
Install on your windows pc
Thank Androxyde and Bin4ry for this kickass tool
3) Download and flash stock 2.1
Go to this thread and download a 2.1 rom in your language of choice (Dont worry that it's not your local ROM)
4) Flash this rom using Flashtool
In the first link there is a how-to. follow it and flash the downloaded ROM from step 3
Once you have 2.1 on your phone,
5) Enable USB Debugging and Root
Use flashtool and root your phone using the simple button "Root" (I know!! what an awesome tool right!!?? )
Once rooted, disconnect the phone.
6) Get yourself a root file manager
Download a file manager capable of root access such as root explorer or solid explorer.
7) Access and edit the build.prop file
Open the file manager. U should get a superuser prompt to allow root access. Touch "Allow". Go to /system and mount the system as RW. there's a file there called build.prop. open it in a text editor. Find all instances of a number that looks like this 1238-9045 (this is my build number, yours will not be the same). Edit this number(all 3 instances) to look like your build number (Found on original box or behind the battery). Save the file and exit
8) Update via SEUS OR PC companion
Now connect your phone back. PC companion or SEUS will tell you there is a new update available. follow the instructions and you'll be running the latest 2.1 for your region and variant of the mini pro
9) [optional] Root and recovery
The new firmware installed by SEUS/PC companion is not rooted. If you need it, root again (same way as in step 5). once rooted, click "Ask root perms" on flashtool. Once root access is confirmed, install xrecovery from the menu.
Hope that helped!
Enjoy
Edit: if you get an error while opening flashtool saying "JVM could not be started because heap size bla bla bla..." Please try on another pc and maybe reinstall windows on urs

Repair it with SEUS or PC Companion.
Step A: leave your phone disconnected from your PC
Step B: Run SEUS/PC Companion, and select update
Step C: It doesn't recognise your phone because it's disconnected and give you a repair option
Step D: Select it, choose your model, it will download the firmware
Step Ea: You get a popup, Press the back-button on your phone while it's off and plug in the USB-Cable
Step Eb: If you can't turn off your phone, plug in the USB-cable and press home- and power-buttons at the same time, it will do a hard reboot and enter flashmode.
Step F: Wait till it's done...
everything past item 3 is pretty hard since we can't acces anything on phone(that's bricking a phone right) to enable usb debugging.
Good tutorial though for those who installed a custom rom and they want to revert to original plus root acces.
Any ideea how to force seus or flash to force flash?

cant flash using SEUS...its saying i have latest version but in reality the phone is already bricked by me and not having the original stock firmware... now it just keeps restart with sony erricson logo and turns off again and bootloop...cant root, cant flash... heard that there is some special modified usb that will make the bootloader enter download mode so that we can flash fresh firmware inside it?

You can always flash... post your model and if your bootloader is locked or unlocked ( since you're on SE kernel logo, i assume it's locked), and i can provide you with stock firmware (E10i or U20i) to flash with flashtool.

hi, i am u20i model...i accidentally locked the bootloader while having nna kernel i think, because flashing customised rom and kernel, my phone will enter bootloop, thats why i pressed Restore inside s1tool.exe, which got my bootloader locked....
and now that my bootloader is locked, and i cant root my phone without turning it on( the phone bricked cant turn on anymore) i cant unlock my bootloader to flash new kernels into it... please do provide stock firmware and rom for me... i can only flash stock kernel, but not the rom... after i flashed the stock u20i kernel, i dont know how to flash the original rom into my phone, since now my phone, didnt have the CWM or XRecover anymore, which can browse my SD card, and install the rom from .zip files....
flashing stock kernel no problem but did not know how to flash the stock rom

Download this, It's the complete SE 2.1 Firmware (Kernel and ROM), flashable with flashtool.
(It's about 213.5MB, although the site may display it's less in your download dialog, but it will keep downloading till it's all there)

Hi, I think I may have bricked or softbricked my xperia mini (excuse my noob)
when installing froyobread I forgot to do the factory reset (and back up) and went straight to rebooting however ever since then I've had this problem:
www youtube com/watch?v=jPQIS19ndRY (sorry not allowed to post links yet and not sure what this is called, bootloop?)
For some reason pressing the back button repeated doesn't get me to xrecovery, (the first time I did it I went thru flash tool which I can no longer do because I cant turn my phone on and therefore I can't enable debugging)
This also prevents me from connecting to PCC
What I tried:
tutorial step 6 ...but its been hours and so far that doesnt not seem to be working either. This is what comes up when I tried

You don't need USB Debugging to use Flashtool. Turn your phone off (take off battery if you have to), plug the USB cable in your PC, then press and hold volume down button and plug the microUSB into the phone. You'll be in flashmode.
If you can't use flashtool anyway, repair with PC Companion.
and it was that simple…
thank you so much! Now time for attempt #2
I used a custom rom "Real ICS 5.1" for past two months, suddenly this evening mobile restarted, and stuck with home screen, after i remove and insert the battery, now mobile stucks after sony logo, i restarted many times, but no luck.

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?

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,
will download in this evening.
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

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.
