cant root my x10 anymore - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys I hope you can help me. I am really not experienced but this really beats me:
Today I tried to flash a new ROM (cosmicMIUI by cosmicdan), was before on Dixperia 8 Gaming and semc.debrand engine kernel.
So I flashed.the kernel in the Rom.thread (a modded ckernel) and the Rom out of it (clean install of course) but it did not boot. So I retried? still no boot. After.third try I flashed back semc debrand.engine kernel and tried to boot the MIUI and fresh install which did not work. I tried to flash stock 2.3.3 stock kernel, thank god flashing still works, but I could not update it via SEUS which stopped at ~20% and stuck with screen on when I tried to boot it ( all the time). I remembered that I just read about a ftf file containing android 1.6. So I am on Cupcake now .
Whatever in Order to root and.install a custom Rom I tried to update. It worked via pcCompanion. So i had official 2.3.3 and.thought great lets.root!
But couldnt root, neither via flashtool (stopped after trying to push something, «waiting 60 seconds to stop pushing» or similar.
Also SOC didnt do it. After a reboot I got the black screen again. So I flashed back Cupcake and decided.to ask for.help here.
So what did.I do wrong (I already installed the Rom succesfully this way)? What is broken? And what shall I do to get back?
I am still having a.backup of Dxiperia.8, so it should.be enough to boot a kernel, my bootloader.is not locked and it seems like.I could flash kernels (at.least.the Cupcake Package).
Best Greets and thanks in advance

could someone point me a tutorial how to creat .ftf files from a rom.zip and a kernel.ftf? would that work?
Greets

Hello I have a stock generic flashed now and all seems to work. Only problem is that i cant root anymorre, flashtool stops after 60 seconds of waiting to push theroot files and superoneclick doesnt seem to identify my device and asks if i am sure that it is on 2.0+
whats wrong and what can i do? of course i have usb debugging on
Greets

Did you try to flash some 2.1 generic official? I have one .ftf, version 2.0.A.0.504_Generic or 2.1.A.0.435_Generic (I have it in the same folder and don't know which one is "magical"). Everytime I had some problems, some big bricks that I feel it's incredible to fix, one of this ftf's helped me. If I good rememver it was .504, but check two of them (if you won't be able to find it anywhere just PM me for help ), it makes your phone preeeetyyyy cleeeaaaan, fix all kernel files and make impossible clean-up with system - maybe that's only my X10, but any other official .ftf help me when I had some problems. Maybe it's a FlashTool version, which is best for me. The version is 0.2.8.0 (Java version 1.6.0_24, OS Version 6.2). Cheers mate, reply back ASAP with some changes .

AW: cant root my x10 anymore
Uhm yes all i did was not clean i think... I will remove every crap and try again, if it doesnt help.i would like to try 2.1 - never had it before

You really should buddy - many .ftf, many ideas, and only this one FlashTool and this one generic system (one of that two, still don't remember, better try two of them ) always help me with most "normal" problems. Write back about success or not .

[Q] problem in entering Xrecovery mode in my xperia X10 rooted phone

guys right now am in really awkward situation..
my xrecovery working really fine untill i installed wolfxperia uibidoom rom (full wipe+dalvik cache)with ICs theme (ICS-ThemeV1.1),now m stucked xperia boot screen and cannot entered in xrecovery mode
guys please help in that case
btw is there any alternate method to install xrecovery without flashtool (coz i want to reinstall xrecovery in my x10 may be this will work)
one more question
can we install custom roms like wolfxperia's rom & cyno roms in x10 by using flashtool??
ulbldoom was not for locked bootloaders...you got wrong version my friend
Sent from my X10S using xda premium
Yes it appears ur bootloader is locked that is for unlocked bl so wont work. U can install xrec manually but it much easier to use flashtool. Use seus or flash global generic 2.3.3 then root and install xrec
Sent from my X10 using XDA
Try This
Restore your phone via SEUS, then do a complete Root, Bootloader unlock via Flashtool,
Unlocking bootloader will help you a lot, for many custom ROM's you'll require an unlocked bootloader so do that using the flashtool aswell.
Install xRecovery via flashtool (easiest way there is), you can install it manually but it tends to be a bit of a headache !!

same issue
Ive had the same issue only a few days ago where i was afraid i nearly screwed up my phone. I kept ready the forums here tho, and came to the conclusion that
a I used an "outdated" flashtool, and
b I used the wrong kernel file before i flashed... and
c (yes this was beyond stupid) i forgot to put the zip file onto the sd card... so when i was going to flash i didnt have anything to flash.
after that my baby kept still at the SonyEriccson screen.
I got the latest flashtool, flashed the Generic 2.3.3 and restarted from scratch.
I now have the Darkedition 1.5 installed. It looks really nice, but its just not my rom, so i will keep looking for a new rom. I'd like a smooth and sleak rom. just to keep it fast and furious.
i still love my phone, even after having it for over a year... something that's never happened to me before.
---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------
I downloaded the feralab 11 rom and will try and figure out how to get that installed properly without have to spend a few more days in a rom trying to fix my phone.
if anyone has any other suggestions for a clean and fast rom, i'm all ears.
Try feralab. Its pretty good

Ok, checking out Feralab v11.2 gaming edition rom. so far installation runs without problems... installed with unlocked bootloader Kernel from DooMKernel v6.
I hope it will run smooth. I'll keep you posted.

Rom istalled without a hitch. ran the script afterwards, and so far it runs smoother than i have ever seen this phone run!
Market isnt working yet, but that may require a few reboots and otherwise i'll get that fixed in another way.
Since i can post in the FeraVolt's thread, i'll just say THANK YOU over here. freaking nice work dude!
Google Play/Market not working
Did a complete reinstall, even preformatted the SD card, since it was full of crap anyway. did the install the way FeraVolt suggested. everything works fine, just not the market. anyone have a similar problem or sollution?
I tried to download the apk externally, didnt make a difference. I didnt see any other google apps? might the problem lie in a missing google framework? or missing other google apps? I havent had much time to spend reading into the issue, but hopefully tonight i can find out some more. meanwhile... any help is appreciated.

Front Camera not working! Bricked phone?

[Q] I really need some expert help on this guys!
<b>2012-03-23 updates on what further tests I've done:</b>
I've just flashed MT15i-Global.tft using latest flashtool in flashmode.
= did not work
Then tried wotanclient = did not work
Made fresh install of ICS beta(2different roms) = did not work
Please help me get my front cam working !
A few months ago the front Camera worked on my Neo but not anymore.
I cant really say if it just stopped working or had something to with flash of another rom.
I've rooted and flashed a number of phones before so i have some basics in this..
Currently running ICS on my Neo.
What I've tried to do to fix it.
1. Use SEUS but it said I have a modified android version and would let me restore...
2. WotanClient which restored it to .62 2.3.4. Failed at first attempt but succeeded at 2nd. >> front cam didnt work afterwards.
3. Tried other ICS roms and made several attempts.
The steps i took on installing another rom:
- installed fastboot
- connected phone
- run fastboot flash boot xxxx.img
- go into recovery
- wipe all, wipe cache, format system, dalvik and battery stats
- install xxx.zip
- up and running with non working front cam
Questions!:
1. How can I make a TOTAL restore of both bootloader, kernel, rom and everything to the stock firmware it got shipped with????? A step by step would be appreciated!
2. Any steps that I could have missed??
3. Anyone with similar problems?
4. How can I put it back to 100% stockrom to get warranty back and perhaps send on service?
FYI
The back camera also behaves strange on the ICS rom in skype/tango video call. It is miscolored.. On 2.3.4 it was ok.
Weird. Could this all be a firmware issue?
Can some provide all the tools i need to get it working? Or can I extract some logs or something that would help you find out if the front cam really is broken??
Where can I test the front cam or are there any appa to specifically test it in any way??
Desperate regards !

If it doesn't work after flashing official 2.3.4 firmware in flashtool with a full wipe, I'm out of ideas.
Does flashing with wotanclient really flash Everything?? Kernel, loader rom and wipes everything?? If the phone hasnt got a hardware fault something, it must be some step i did that sctewed something up.. Could try wotan again though but would rather have more people look into this before strarting flashing.
Afaik Wotan flashes / wipes everything and gets you back to clean Stock!
BUT, i already got problems wotan flashing / discovering the wrong phone type.
While i was trying out some different Kernels on my Phone (Mt11i SE NEO V), it seems that i picked a wrong Kernel and my Phone was showing me the Model Mt15i (SE NEO).
And even Wotanclient discovered a Mt15i...
Didn´t try the front camera at this point, but back cam was not working.
I tried to manually flash Mt11i Stock Rom/ Kernel (0.62) using flashtool.
Well flashtool did it´s work not completely, but far enough to reset the Model to Mt11i and Wotan flashed the correct Version afterwards.
My Hint, have a look at the Modellnumber in Settings, is it the right one ?

front camera solution
Hello and sorry for continuing this thread, but i have a query about the front camera of xperia neo v.
As all the above, I have the same problem with my front camera and I was wondering if I could somehow get the camera's apk file from gingerbread (the whole camera application - which is believed to be the last application compatible with the camera),would this solve the problem?
I am addressing aspecially to the developers .....
If anybody knows a way to solve this, please send me inbox a guideline.
Thanks in advance.
:good:
May be below the info can help you about the stock rom flash
1. Find the bootloader locker ftf (firmware file) file for Neo from the Internet (else inbox me I will find and will give you. I have that file but it's Neo V only). Once you flashed this file then Sony updater service will reconognize your device and do the update properly
2. Install Sony updater service
3. Connect your phone and choose the phone model then update to ICS
Hit thanks if it helped

[Q] How to make most stable and fast Stock Rom ever?

Hi everyone!
I'm tired using custom roms for their instability and fc's everywhere for over a year I didnt found Rom that works perfect all the time with many apps installed so I just want to my phone work, dont want to flash new system every month again.
I was running stock with deleted apps, Set Cpu (tnx to gregbradley (edit: that was neoxx3m very good advidce, sorry my bad) and z-kernel for about 4 months and I was happy, that was one and only Rom that i've used so long. Yes it wasnt so fast but it was very stable and everything works so nice not even one fc. (kindda wierd couse ive installed z-kerner on my Unlocked BL x10 and now I can't and dont wanna to play and relock)
So i wanna repair my phone and get back to stock, root it, delete all uneeded apps and flash the most stable kernel so will it be failsafe from doom right?
And the question is will my plan work? I know that phone will not be so fast but will everything work and this is all I need or maybe someone has better idea?
Also have some questions about the newest fw for this Doom UB kernel. Where do i get this newest se fw?
Any help will be very appriciated.
Restore the phone back to stock using SEUS. That should do the trick

It will work because when u repair ur phone via PCC u get latest firmware (2.3.3/3.x.x.x.x.x), but my advice is to try relock BL and use zKernel, i did that yesterday and i'm happy again!

I told you that dont wanna play with bootloader no more, maybe for some time i would like to try some kernel or rom (if im not happy for using stock and doom) and will have to unlock again so im patience (tring to) and will not to this for a while.
Anyway strange is that i flash zKernel even if i had unlocked Bootloader and it work fine but when i tried to do this again ( didnt know that this kernel is fo Locked only) it didnt work

[Q] Need Help - Can I Safely Go Back To Stock ROM And Kernel?

Ok i just wrote all of this out and it disapeared..
So il rewrite it all now! Joy!:crying: (Sorry if i miss details in haste to finish..)
Hello!
Im wondering if it is safe for me to revert me phone back onto Stock Rom and stock Kernal, and how I would go about doing this?
Heres my Phones Details:
Model Number- X10i
Android Version- 2.3.3
Baseband Version- 2.1.71
Kernel Version- [email protected]) )
Build Number- Wolf_Xperia_7.0.0x
It was a while ago i did all of this stuff to my phone, and I just wanna make sure im going to go the right way about doing it from Guys in the know!
The actual Rom I am running is Wolfbreaks 2.3 Rom V7b6 (ulbl version) It changes to that after you flash in xLoud & Bravia or something.
The main reason for me doing this is, My phone has become a pain.
It keeps Force Rebooting whenever I try to-
Run Larger Apps (Wheres my Water?)
Use my Internet
Charge my phone & text or something simple.
And 7/10 times it reboots, it deletes my Contacts, Messages, Email acounts and other data.
Can anyone give me a direction of how I can get my phone to be almost back to stock.
Basicaly, Stock 2.3 Rom and Kernel (and il just root it afterwards unless its already done)
I Imagine it will be as easy as flashing afew files in xRec or Flashtool.
But, What files should I use? and Which way should I flash them? In what Order? Etc etc..
Thanks for ANY feedback! Its much appreciated!:laugh::good:

You can always reflash your Stock Rom and Kernel. Personaly, I use Sony Update Service, but you can use latest Flashtool if you want.
Here you are a link for SEUS (Sony Update Service):
http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
Install SEUS on your PC. Run it. Wait till it finished initialization. Folow instuction...After Flashing is over, you must Root your phone again with latest Flashtool. Before rooting, remember to go to phone Settings/Applications/Development and check USB Debugging box.

Thanks for your feedback!
I did consider using the official software for it, but was unsure if it would work right.
Souly I wasnt sure if it would replace the kernel back to stock aswel as the rom. Also, because of the Unlocked Bootloader.
So using SEUS will definetly set my kernel to stock aswel? and im assuming it will lock my bootloader again if i do so?
Thanks again so much for your reply =)
Oh! And also, Do you have any knowledge on why my phone is rebooting so drasticaly and deleting all my data?
Its defintly not over/underclocking.
My guess was it was the kernel/rom.
Don't worry about bootloader. It will remain unlocked. SEUS always flash Stock Rom and kernel as one. Just reflash your phone with official service, and root again with Flashtool.

And when you back to Stock, I can recommend you to flash Xrecovery with Flashtool. If you wanna flash Custom Rom I recommend you to flash ThJap's ThGo2 v.17. It's flashable through Xrecovery. For me one of the best GB rom out there.

But yeah, sorry for mentioning this again. But i think your missing my question because your giving me such speedy replies xD
I edited one of my comments, but i think you replied before you saw my edited version.
But do you have any idea about whats causing this terrible Rebooting/Deleting data problem? is it something youv seen commonly before?

You probably mess your rom and kernel by doing something wrong ( flash something bad and incorrect). I have used Wolfbreak Rom without problem.

Thanks again man. I probably did haha.
But ive used wolfs roms for ages, and never had the problem up until the ulbl doom version of V7b6. But the weird thing is, it gets consistently worse by the day!
Anyway, il give what you said a try early tommorow and report back hopefully with good news! =)
Il find out soon enough, if i put my phone on charge with internet on, in less than two mins it will reboot.
Thanks for your help man Greatly appreciated.
Yeah, quick reply and didn't saw at the moment. I have used DonatHD, also good one. It is also Gingerbread. ICS roms aren't quite finished for X10. Wait for Feravolt and Achotjan to finish their ICS roms, for now they are in Beta stages...
But, if you prefer Xperia S look, widgets, and apps, ThJap is better.
There you are some "how to":
You must be on Stock kernel with Xrecovery, flash ThGo2 v17 through Xrecovery, let the Rom boot for first time, do phone setup if you want(date, time, accounts...). Reboot in Xrecovery again, and then install new ThJap kernel Th n5-1 through Xrecovery.
Here you are link for kernel Th n5-1:
https://hotfile.com/dl/176929536/0f78d8d/2.3Th_kernel_n5-1.zip.html
And remember, don't use any CPU app for setting frequency and kernel governor like SETCPU, ROM TOOLBOX, NO FRILLS, because with this kernel you will get WLOD (freezes) and random reboots.

Thanks for your feedback also =D
So, if i downloaded his medium clocked kernel. Can i just flash it over my overclocked kernel and it will be sorted? or do i need to flash stock first?
also, to flash a kernel in. is it flashtool i should use? and not xRec?
Thanks!
Have you done any "housekeeping" on your X10? Such as fix permissions or cleared your caches lately? Sometimes, with the issues you are having the phone needs a little cleaning. Wolf's rom is stable on most kernels that are stock based. When I ran this rom, I used a task manager to release memory esp. before using memory intensive apps. Hope this helps.

For Doomkernel, don´t need back to Stock. Just flash it through Flastool.

Nope, But i did after I read this.
Still no joy.. thanks anyway.
And thanks again Dzufa. Speaking of which, what made you think i was running the overclocked kernel? and not the medium one?
Because, im 90% sure i used the medium clocked kernel in the first place.
And on top of all of this..!
My x10 wont recognise on my laptop anymore.. so i cant get into flash tool and stuff..
Lets get some things straight. There no such thing like medium clocked. This is also overclocked version, but it's medium overclocked up to 1113mhz. Full overclocked CPU speed is up to 1228mhz, and, in many cases, causes freezing (WLOD). Default CPU speed is up to 998mhz.
Do you have SEUS installed on your laptop??? And, if you have, does SEUS recognize your X10i?

Hm? no such thing? And yeah in either case. I wasnt overclocking at all. Because when i first tried it. Always got WLOD so stoped within a day.
And Yeah i have SEUS installed, And Flashtool.
But nothing is recognising my x10. Not SEUS, Not flashtool and not even "My Computer" When i plug it in, my phone just behaves as if its being charged in the wall. No option to "Mount Sd Card"
Sorry for this problem going on for ever..
Im going to try and get it to recognise again now.
If it does, Im just gonna use SEUS to stock my phone again, then root it.
Then mayby consider Trying a different custom rom like the one you suggested.
(thats if it actualy works stock!)
Thanks for all your help man

Good News. Was just a dodgy cable! Charging my phone up to 90ish% then ill get it onto SEUS. And check the condition of it. If all goes well, i shall root it. If its still good, il look out some custom roms =)
Il keep you updated. Thanks
I'm not saying that you overclocked your phone. Mine is been overclocked for 2 years. I'm used Doomkernel v6 with 1113 mhz without any problem.
OK, try to uninstall Flashtool and SEUS from your laptop. Then restart your laptop. Install first SEUS, and connect your x10 via usb.

Link abovementioned guide you to wrong post. Get back few post earlier and find about Recognizing your phone. Or read this, quoted text from that post by G-Face:
"If your phone is not recognized by Flashtool that means you don’t have the required drivers installed.
Open folder /Flashtool/drivers and install ggsetup-2.2.0.11
If after the above Flashtool still doesn’t recognize your phone, do the following:
From Flashtool/drivers folder extract the zip file XXX_ADB_driver which corresponds to your phone model Open “Device manager” on the computer and find the device which is with an exclamation mark on it (do this with connected to the computer phone) Right click on the device and choose Uptade driver Choose to find the driver manually and browse to the folder where you’ve extracted the zip file. That should install the required drivers on your computer".

wifi error
i don't know why but my wifi is not working its due to the fact i flashed a custom kernel with cwm recovery tool and it was a rooted kernel. I also rebooted several times but my wifi still says error. I looked for a stock kernel.sin flashed it the wifi is still not working so after flashing the kernel.sin i then tried a hard reset. Now my question if i reinstall 2.3.4 is that the only way il be able to get my wifi working again or isn't there a shorter method because im sure if i reinstall the phones firmware that should get my wifi working again any ideas ? by the way i havn't installed any custom rom i was about to but the wifi issue is a problem
solved on my own
