Hello!
I had the same problem.
You have to use RK Tool and a flash file.
Search for drivers and install them then flash it with RK but make sure you check (Format NAND/ CACHE PARTITION)

[Q] Oops, I've used format/system ... :-)

Hi guys,
I've got a big problem, I've used "format/system" in xRecovery and now when I reboot, I'm only getting the Sony Ericsson logo. I did a backup on SDcard but I'm a Mac user so I've used Crossover to use SEUS and try to restore. The problem is the phone isn't detected, only the green LED is turn on but nothing happen on the Mac...
I'm gonna try on PC, but if you can help me ... it will be great !!
(Sorry guys for my english, but I'm a french student who spend more time on his X10 than in english class !)
I think you use flashtool and flash a 2.1 firmware
Flash Tool
2.1 Firmware can also be found in the flashtool post.
Can you use xRecovery after this problem?
If so, why don't you restore the backup that you have made ?

I think the format erases the xrec. In this case, as the colleague up there told him flashtool is the solution.

same problem here but i have tried flash tool many time.what shall i do?
Hi jojooo89,
I suppose crossover might not help you in flashing even thought it might detect the phone after some tinkering.
flashing works only on windows either throught SEUS or flashtool...
the reason being usbflash.dll is only on windows.

If you can still get into x-recovery, you could try mounting your SD card, copying over a ROM and then installing it with x-recovery

This is not true. In 'Partition Tools' there is a 'Format System' option that formats everything including the system files/folders. Since XRecovery files are in the 'System' folder using this option removes XRecovery. There is a warning in the XRecovey thread to never use this option without having another system image to replace it with.
I would assume based on that warning though that there is some way to replace the system but thats a question for Z.

Hey everyone!
I have a huge problem. I tried to update my OS from cm10 5.1 kernel v16 to cm10 8.1 kernel v18.
I used system format, and when I start my phone it just showed me CM10 logo.
I tried to flash to stock verision, somehow I managed it, but now SE logo on my phone, and I can not flash again, because when I flash my phone it's starting itselfs automatically, so the flashing stops
Could someone help me? I hope you could understand what I wrote.

[Q] Bootloop after changing framework-res.apk... Please help!

Hi, sorry if posting in wrong section
Im currently stuck in bootloop after modifying framework-res.apk.
Phone is of course rooted, used root explorer to paste the framework-res.apk, renamed the original one.
I have googled around a bit, and im pretty confused
Any ideas how to make it boot?
Thanks!!
As it is stuck in a bootloop , all u can do is flash a stock Rom again, I find this is the only solution or may be u can push stock framework if available using adb!!
Sent from my SK17i using XDA Premium App
Wenever modifying framework u shud always consider backing up your Rom!!

First, thanks for the replies !!!
I messed around with fastboot a little yesterday, and i have a little problem installing it. I finally figured out how to install the drivers, but I cant get adb open, it just closes after clicking on it
How can I get this work?
First of all you should have set right permissions for the file before restart
ADB starting only from command line, and if you use Vista or Seven just right click on the folder where ADB is situated and type "ADB"
use SEUS ... it's the easy way ...
um isnt that for older SE phones? Or maybe im wrong
I couldnt find anything about it..
Ok I finally got ADB working, however it cant find my phone :/
I connected it via fastboot (?), like holding down vol-up and plug in USB, phone gets a blue notification light up left.
Is this the right mode? Drivers should be working just fine according to device manager..
Thx

Change the permission of the file which you have copied.
Don't worry it will work fine.

hello.. im also stuck in boot loops.. so how can i fix this using adb tools ??? plsss help :\
reflash using wotanserver
may be you wrong to set permissions
sir please please please help me i have micromax A110 i have same problem but i have backup my data and it is in internal sd card i have backup data through clockword recovery but no luck it is just boot lopping please someone help
Lol this happends never, because i know how to modify framework-res.apk properly (lol), i build a flashable zip on my phone always to make sure it copied, and have a flashable zip with framework-res.
Well, the easiest solution is to reflash the ROM/framework-res.
Jader13254 is right, you should always have a rescue strategy before messing around with something like framework-res.apk. It sounds like you don't have cwm recovery installed, which sounds particularly crazy. The bootlooping is going to make it difficult to use adb or android commander or anything similar with out recovery. If you have cwm you have some options to push the working framework onto the phone, but with out cwm, I think you can only use SUS/SEUS/PCC or flashtool to repair your phone. Just check for any of the guides for rooting, unbricking, updating ,etc your device.

Help please Hard Brick ???

Hello
I've installed the [ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.9 following this steps
i've previously installed a CWM
restart in recovery
wiped data/reset factory
wiped battery
wiped all ...
install Rom
install gapp

please some help.
i post here, because i haven't permissions to post in the developer forum asking for help in the thread
sorry about my bad english
Did you unlock your bootloader using Flashtool?
You also need the latest version of nAa kernel installed.
Thanks for the answer
I didn't unlock my bootloader using Flashtool i haven't do that before and didn't read the installing instructions for doing that my fault
and didn't installed nAa kernel, because i think didn't need to install the kernel obligatorily
is anything i can do to solve this problem ??
You do need the nAa kernel to run MiniCM7, it just won't work without it. Next time you think about installing a rom, make sure you read all the instructions first. Especially if you're using custom kernels as that's a good way to give your phone a real hard brick.
What you've got is a soft brick. The phone still works, it just doesn't work as a phone. A hard brick is when your phone doesn't do anything at all. Which is bad.
All you need to do is download and use Sony Ericsson Update Service. This updates your phone to the latest, official firmware. If it complains that you already have it, choose the option to reinstall it anyway.
This will wipe all the data on your phone, but not your sdcard, so you'll lose your contacts, sms's, etc but you backed up anyway, didn't you?
thanks Ticklefish for the answer
i did that and now i've my phone back =D
Mine wont do that :-/
When i follow your steps Ticklefish i cant connect to the phone. it pops up with a message that tells me to pull down the status line which i cant because i only gets to the Sony Ericsson boot logo.
Got any tips for me?
thanks in advance

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No ,i have`nt try any customize ROM.I just Rooted my phone with SuperOneClick.
If anyone is interested, on cacofonix3's request I have build an *experimental* and *untested* recovery and ROM for the A800 based on the P700i_ROW_S107
(the S107 hints it is probably pretty much the same as the Russian one mentioned above)
Warning:
- I do not have this phone, so I am not sure if it is a working ROM, I cannot test myself. It either works, or it does not.
- If you never done flashing before, don't try this, leave it to the experienced people to test first.
- Make sure you have the original ROM to go back to, like this one.
- Never flash preloader / uboot / mbr / ebr
- A800 has different partition table. Never use a scatter file for a different ROM.
Advise:
- First flash the recovery using the v3.1238 flash tool, and see if that works
- Put the ROM on the SD card
- Next boot into recovery and use that to flash the ROM.
- Also advised to wipe cache and data after flashing
- I do not have this phone, so I am not sure if it is a working ROM, I cannot test myself
Info:
The ROM is essentially the one described here, but with a800 kernel/modules/firmware and also a v0.01 marker to clearly indicate 'beta'.
The A800 is pretty similar as the P700i, except higher resolution, one button less, uses the MT6577T rather than MT6577, and I suspect uses the MT6628 rather than MT6620 radio subdie. As a result, when flashing this ROM, one of the following may happen:
- It does not work at all : solution flash factory ROM again
- GSM may not work : solution flash factory ROM again. OR: The GPS may work and also pick up Galileo...
- GPS/Wifi/BT may not work : we may work around this by swapping out some libraries. Or: The GPS may work and also pick up Galileo...
- Icons may appear smaller : should be OK, as it is a bigger schreen.
- 4th button is missing: Use buttonsavior as workaround for the recent apps button.
ROM and recovery can be downloaded here. Flash tool and USB driver from here
Ok, given that i receive no feedback, neither positive nor negative, but it is a rather untested and experimental ROM, I removed the download again.

Not sure what you mean with 'flash tool drivers': the VCOM drivers are the ones you need. Also I know nothing about missing DLL.
hey thanks cybermaus i did it! :laugh: just followed your blog, but the rom is so slow the i dowloaded the A800_RUS_S107, what other roms can i use?
I cant reinstall the official ROM, so then ROOT and then install cybermaus' ROM.

I want to be confirmed that flashing will help me to fix my problem with the tab and it will not do any permanent damage to my funbook tab.
1- will it solve problems?
If software problem, probably. If hardware problem, definitely not.
2- got risk of bricking/damaging/create more problems?

in my experience flashing rom is make our device back to original if you flash factory rom.
if problem come from OS yes your problem will fix,
