[Q] Xperia X10 Mini Kernel Problem -Wont boot at all- - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello,
Today I unlocked the bootloader of my E10i and tried to flash the kernel with anroid 2.2
Well, I accidentaly selected X10's kernel instead of E10's. It flashed without any fail but now the phone wont boot at all.
I've tried fastboot and flashtool mode on "flashtool" so i can flash back the original kernel but the mobile can't be recognised at all from the pc.
It can't neither enter flash mode (back button while plugging USB), nor fastboot mode (vol up while plugging USB).
Screen will not even wake. When i connect it to charge. the loght won't even come up.
I've searched all the internet and didn't find a solution to my problem.
If there is a way so I can get my phone back i would be gratefull to help me.
Sorry for my English.

I accidently flashed x10mini's kernel to my x8 before but it could turn on with a blank screen. Then reflashing x8's kernel solved the problem.
Anyways try to take out battery then replace after 7 minutes (there's a black cable in back of your phone, you can disconnect it using a screwdriver)
If still no sign of life (no vibration when pressing power button or turning to flash mode) so it's a HARD BRICK
only can repaired by Sony service center or jTag box
(Sony service is recommended)
Sorry

[Q] X10 mini (e10) almost bricked stuck in boot loop

Sorry for the long post, but I will try and explain everything as much better as I can.
So, I accidentally flashed a x10 mini PRO rom on the X10 mini. Now the phone gets stuck on the MI logo (it was a miui rom). I can restart the phone normally, I can shut it down, and there is communication with s1tool.
I cannot get into recovery, so I'm stuck. The phone has an unlocked bootloader. So I'm trying to connect it with flashtool, I have the drivers installed, but I don't know what to flash now to restore the phone in a working order. I can't get the phone to remain in flashmode, except if I open s1tool and identify it first. Otherwise it stays in flashmode for 10secs and then it starts booting again.
I have actually managed to flash a stock SE firmware via flashtool. What I did was, I opened s1tool, and then flashtool, and flashtool was able to communicate with the phone, to read the information, and actually flash it, but after I restarted I was stuck in the same boot loop.
I tried to flash recovery again from flashtool, but even when I'm in flashmode, it does not activate all the buttons in flashtool, and therefore it does not give me the option to flash recovery.
I tried with SEUS also to restore it, but it says I have the latest version and it does not let me proceed.
So my question is, is there any way to flash recovery from flashtool, and what is that way? How do you enter flashmode, for the green LED to remain on, because I'm not sure I'm doing it right? Is there any other way to flash a ROM from flashtool?
Please help.
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 E: You get a popup, Press the back-button on your phone while it's off and plug in the USB-Cable
Step F: Wait till it's done...
I have tried that, but I will do it again step by step, and see what happens. Thank you for your time.
restore your phone
sorry for bad english ...
the image is a link to Stock firmware. flash through flashtool flashmode mode.

If you haave an unlocked bootloader, why don't you flash a custom kernel for the mini like nAa-14 then use its inbuilt recovery to flash minicm7?

[Q] Phone soft bricked

My phone is not restarting. I am using a Samsung Vibrant T959.
I really love the phone since it a gift from my sister and I hope i can fix it. It had no issues, with a stock 2.1 firmware, but last month I installed ICS on my phone after which I started receiving me errors.I guess the ICS version i installed was not very stable. Usually restarting the phone would fix the problems and I would be good to go. However last evening when I got the error I restarted the phone 2 times but I would still receive the errors. The 3rd time I restarted it, the phone got stuck on the animation screen and did not boot.
I tried the recovery mode and it worked fine.
I took a backup of my data using the USB debugging mode of the phone.
Since I was irritated with this version of ICS i tried to root my phone using Odin.
Odin failed. The phone was stuck on the downloading screen for some time so i disconnected the phone from my computer and now the phone will not start.
It does not boot, it does not go the recovery mode nor the download mode. when I press the power button or the three buttons (volume and power) together the screen shows a mobile phone a computer and a disconnect between the three (phone ! PC screen) .
I do not know how to fix it. Any help on this would be appreciated..

Please help me understand, you were running an ICS ROM so you had to be rooted. What the hell do you mean you tried rooting with Odin?? What files did you run in Odin?

If you are getting a "Phone.. ! ..Computer" image (seen above) when booting phone, yes, you are bricked but it is reversible! Just follow these steps...
Make sure you have ODIN OPEN with admin privileges!
1.) Take off your back cover, remove your sim & mirco sd card.
2.) Remove your battery.
Make sure you have the USB plugged into your PC but NOT your phone!
3.) Hold the volume buttons.
4.) Put the battery in.
5.) Put the USB in.
You don't necessarily need the download mode image to be present. As long as you are getting the COM ID to light up yellow in ODIN, just flash back to stock like normal.

if i let it "boot" normally it gets to this screen
but as the touch screen doesnt work i cant go no forward
no as i say i bought it like this so i knew the risk but is there anyway to fix it?
ive downloaded ADT but im hesitant to use it as i may totally bugger it if it not already buggered.

Likewise so just guess .
perhaps i should have tried booting into download mode before downloading a ROM and reading up on ODIN as i cant boot into download mode, it just boot as usual to the 2nd pic above

Thats the startup screen on a new install .
Guess would be the touch screen or digitizer .
it was a risk i took, u win some u lose some.
OK, a bit of success, i wasn't able to enter download mode from power off but managed to get into it from power on holding the same keys, problem now is i cant get ODIN to see my device, i have the latest drivers too.
ok, managed to get it connected and flashed but it appears to be in aboot loop, will head to the Odin thread for advice.
many thanks

I,ve try to flash new ROM via USB (instruction and software at: http://forum.faeamobile.com/thread-1048-1-1.html)
But something was wrong, and my phone is bricked. I think it need new flash, but for that moment phone is completely brick, nothing happened when I connected device, it's only black screen.
Maybe is the solution how to flash phone with this chipset, and maybe I can use it for that phone?
I'm sorry for my question, but I'm only user, and I don't have proffesional knowledge. Sorry for my terrible english too.
------edit-------
I found instruction:
1. Remove Battery
2. Hold Both Volume keya ( + and - )
3. Connect to the PC whith USB CABLE
4. Hold for 4 secunds Power Buttion
5. F1 entered to Flash mode. At screen only black picture. No any info
6. After This Go to the QDL.exe and FLASH Firmware
but after flash nothing happened.

When it says "reset device", then remove the battery, insert it and let it boot normally.

Stuck in recovery with Live Demo Unit, please help!

Hey guys,
So recently I got a SM-G928X Live Demo Unit. I just read that flashing G928F firmware is completely fine and so I did aaaaand well, I am stuck in recover. Forgot to flash a custom recovery, also the phone has Factory Reset Protection so I am here with:
Android Recovery
MMB29K.G928FXXU2BPB6
samsung/zenbltexx/zenlte
6.0.1/MMB29K/G928FXXU2BPB6
user/release-keys
volume up/down and power
____________________
then goes normal recovery options
and at the bottom of the screen, there's
Supported API: 3
dm-verity verification failed...
Need to check DRK first...
Anyway I can't get to download mode, cant wipe data, cant flash from ADB/SD Card. When connected to PC no software recognises the device so yeah, that's a great situation to be in, right?
So if any of you have any idea how to make this thingy work again, I'm up for anything.
Aand I'm in the wrong forum right.. Sorry for that
Thanks

Well one thing might still work. You could try and make yourself a download mode dongle. Just google Samsung download mode dongle and try to make one. IIRC all you need is a microUSB plug for the phone and a resistor with a certain resitance (can't recalm the value). Then plug in the microUSB plug and just hold the resistor between two ends of the plug. This should force your phone into download mode and you should be able to flash it again. Good luck!
Edit: found a picture showing you what you need to connect

You can also find Samsung download mode jig dongles pretty cheap on the web. But going to a hardware store and getting a USB connector and a resistor just was the faster way to do it for me.
