[Q] WT19i stuck in bootloop! - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hey all!
I would have posted this in the developement section, but I cant since I am a new registration! So please help me!
I just tried to flash my wt19i with the ice mod lite rom. I have a locked bootloader, so no custom kernel. I went through the AROMA installer, and since this is my first time, I was unsure of the entire thing. I think at one point, where I had to specify the device, I didnt. I just clicked next and proceeded to choose the bootloader status. Now, I followed all the previous steps of making a nandroid backup, wiping the dalvic cache and all. Now the phone doesnt boot. I think it might me stuck in a bootloop, as it is stuck at the sony logo. I cant enter CWM recovery. Flashtool doesn't recognise my phone either. How do I proceed?

Hey!
I dont mean to sound rude - but to all those of the 54 who saw this and didnt help - thanks a ton. To those of the 54 who looked here hoping to find a solution or see if there's a fix in case you face this sometime down the line, I fixed the phone with a SUS re-install of the original firmware. Simple and effective.
Looking forward to an enlightning experience on XDA!

Have you tried to boot it in fastboot-mode?
Turn it off and hold the volume-up-button while connecting the phone with your pc...
Nice to hear you managed to restart your device
Just read to late you just managed to reinstall the phone...

dont worry

really stuck on rooting my phone !

hey guys,
my phone shipped with android 2.2.1 and i updated it to 2.2.2
now i wanna root it but nothing is working ! z4root restarts the phone but no changes... gingerbreak just keeps in that loading thingie forever (more than an hour) when i restart the phone no changes are made... superoneclick didn't help either... I found somewhere on the forums that i would need to downgrade to 2.2 but i can't find a way to do that because when i start searching for the original firmware for my country i can't find it... so any help ?
waiting for your responses...
well make sure usb debugging is enabled and try once again wth gingerbreak 1.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
install gingerbreak on phn memory ,frmat sd card using http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/index.html
hope it helps,
there are many thread on downgrading just search for it but before that try the above
yeah thanks for your (so quick) answer, but i already activated usb debugging, the sd card was formatted and mounted. tried gingerbreak for like 7 times or something and it's not working...
I tried Gingerbreak once and never looked back. I wonder what happened to your phone.
did you try taking it out to dinner ?

or use this program to get the original firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1073827
i dno why that link doesnt work, it was a program that downloaded the firmware for you. you simply select ur country.
thanks for the reply, that program just downloaded the v10g version which is 2.2.2 (flashing that wouldn't change anything). so now i need to downgrade... but which version should i use ? i can't find the original firmware for my country, and that really sucks (VERY bad service LG). so which original firmware should i get to flash it to my phone using kdz before rooting ?
thanks for your answers and time...
no replies ? come on ! which one should i choose ? no difference between them? please answer you know you can't breathe with that stupid stock rom !!

Hmm...I had that issue. It can/may be solved by any other way. But I recommend to try the one I did. You need to type some commands in ADB, and then try rooting. It's a long process....Read my post in my blog here for details:-http://ayushandroidworld.blogspot.com/2011/11/how-to-root-lg-p500-with-gingerbread.html Note that the post is labeled as "for Gingerbread", but it'll work for you...........
Try it and let me know if it worked.

hey guys
so now i have that "superuser" icon in my drawer, so i need to install a custom recovery... I installed ROM MANAGER from the market, flashed clockworkmod recovery (successfully) but when i select "reboot into recovery" it just hard-resets the phone and it boots again and i find it just like it was when i bought it... even tried shutting down the phone and pressing volume_down + power + menu..... is there something wrong ? please help !
Hello ,You still have clockwork (inside). Try Pull battery ,reinstall, press power,At logo press :HOME-VOL DOWN-POWER for about 5 sec.or untill you get into CW home screen.You can now only use the vol up & down to highlite an option and menu to enter/select the highlited option.If your installing a ROM ,install it (ZIP FILE) on your sdcard 1st (before) so you can select it.
thanks for replies.
I solved the issue... i just installed the rom manager 4.5.0.1 version...Worked as a charm...
Finally, i have cm7 on my phone, gingerbread 2.3.7
now i'm gonna flash the google apps (gapps) cuz it turns out i don't even have a market !

Don't be an jerk. No one is impressed by your insults and it just hurts the rest of the community. You did nothing to help with the problem, so keep your comments to yourself.
To OP: Best bet is a reflash of your ROM, and try a different rooting method.
I would say that you should try to leave your cell on the fastboot / recovery for a day and check if you can still reproduce this error.
I had this error when my phone was overheating (like left on a car dashboard for few hours with a direct sun).
U will have to reflash v20x firmware on you phone because it may not have fladhed properly last time when u flashed.i am not saying yo fladh rom i m saying about whole firmware
search it on google ie. official gb on p500 ul get the results
u will find many guides
flash it via kdz updater
if still problem is there that means ur hardware is faulty thrn take it to lg in stock condition
thats it.....

i was going to get all info and links and post a easy 123 step method for locked bootloader 2.3.4 neo with 62 fw.
like this. (just example idk what comes first or what to do yet)
1) download this (*****)
2) download that (*****)
3)put (***) in the folder named (*****)
4) connect phone in flash mode
5)flash this and that
6) done. you can now put roms on and you have full root access..
i suggest use pandemics answer thank him and grant him best wishes with his work maybe donate him.
i will also post a list of roms that work with locked bootloader, maybe an ics version or 2
Basically i make this for simple instructions to get root cwm and rom. i will work hard to try make this good very very noob guide,
I see your xtra noob guide. after downloading and doing as you say will that give me root cwm and custom rom? have you got list of roms i can use if i root neo with your guide?
It's not hard to understand, but just you are lazy to try understand.
How can: flash .42, root, OTA (optionally flash .62 kernel) be hard to understand? What can be more simpler/noob prof than this?
Things aren't complicated, it just need to take some free time to TRY understanding them.
If all this is to complicated, only 1,2,3 which I can suggest is:
1)turn on phone
2)use it stock
3)turn it off

don't be lazy, go trough dev section and check yourself what rom's are for locked BL's.
it's not hard, actually most of them have word locked or unlocked in their title.
This is not for me i know this. i root my old phone, i am experience enough to cook my own rom on my old phone i also rite simple android apps so i know this. i do this for someone who not had android before i want nice simple instruction for them without the corporate mumbo jumbo

I don't know your earlier experience and knowledge, but based on your questions in this thread, you don't know how to do it, or it's hard for you to understand. (to lazy to quote each of your sentence with question). Maybe I'm wrong, but I just reply on your posts.
Also, making instruction even more simplified(then the one on Pandemic link) we are making zoombies out of people, who don't use their heads to think and try to understand something. People becoming to lazy these days.
I dont think its lazy, i work with zombies that need zombie noob guides lol.
i am not lazy i do this for the community that want easy answer and list of roms for locked bootloaders (i am now searching and editing my posts with roms i find) please see my second post

[Q] back to the way it was

first i want to start by saying how sorry i am if i have repeated this thread, but in my defence im actually super confused
here is my story.
i have a SE x10 (or x10i i not sure).
right now its been modded (i used this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1305945 )
at one point after modding it wiped out (my friend was playing around with it) and lost all my data and stuff but it was still the modded look
at the moment im having wifi problems with it and have been advised by SE to send it into repair. now obviously i dont want them to know i got unofficial firmware on my phone.
how do i go back to the start, as in as SE gave me the phone no root no mod NOTHING. its a unbranded UK phone
iv read tutorials but not too sure which one i should follow.
and more info need let me know ill be happy to provide it
OKay! Best way to turn back is using pc companion! I guess! Whatever condition you are in... Install it on ur pc and check for repair and follow

flash it through flashtool. here's guide to use flashtool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
If you had unlocked your bootloader, lock it using flashtool after flashing uk firmware.

I mean bootloader unlocking not sim unlock.
If you havent done bootloader unlock by flashtool, dont worry about it.
No thats not the one, you can flash it but as you want to give it for repairs, it needs the UK generic.
this is the one you need: http://www.mediafire.com/?yrk3w24lrz0nfso

He wasn't rude, he was just trying to tell that you didn't give as much info as it was needed.
About your problem, download flashtool and download .ftf (I suggest Nordic region) and flash it. Everything can be found in dev sections, or in sticky thread in general section.

Flash it with correct firmware, get the fw's from sticky thread in general section.
btw. edit thread title to reflect your problem, as current one is so generic that it can be used on 90% threads here

What is the filename of the file you are flashing to your phone?
Did flashtool reported any error or everything went well with flashing?

Why are you sending PM's, we have forum, there are smarter people here and will solve your problem faster if more of us discuss about it.
First you said that you have problems with keyboard, then you said you followed this instructions: http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/08/how-to-root-the-sony-ericsson-xperia-neo-mt15i/
On those instructions I only see how to root your phone, which includes flashing MT11i kernel.
Now hear this. If you said all this info before, you would get your solution by now.
Flashing MT11i kernel on MT15i gives that error. And I would have told you that if you gave all the info you have. And no need to go around the web for instructions, everything you need is here, if you had checked this (sticky) thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 you would noticed that flashing only kernel cause errors.
For start flash your phone with correct fw, to solve your initial question, then go on next exhibitions
And please use forum, it will be faster
nah sorry for all the issues and problems im done forget this thread please and delete my account im not doing this.time for a new phone.peace
