[Q] X10 Soft brick help needed - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Everyone,
I was running cm10-v9.3 with the X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20 kernel, Then I wanted to upgrade it to XPERIA X10Z-4.1.2_10.1.A.1.350 ROM which has been recently released together with the X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v21 kernel, but I forgot to turn usb debugging off.
I cannot use SEUS to restore my phone, I forgot to make a backup (yes plain stupid) . And I can't even go into recovery or flash any other Kernel, I only managed to accidentally of course... flash the stock kernel which was in Flashtool, I can't even update it to another kernel, I tried v18, v19, v20, v21 and all gave the same error:

Well I think the title of the thread says everything, its probably that i have to go to service and make my warranty valid, right now I have a generic spain rom, but i think that if i go with this i will have problems, so please anyone here from México that still have their phone with that rom and update via seus or repair their phone will made tha favor to upload that files?
I have the files from my backup, but when i create the ftf and try to flash it with flashtool, it doesn't seems to work, the installation is aborted with a major error code like this:

i can upload the archives if you want to.

Well its probably thats the main reason, let me see if i get from another people, if not can you upload?? maybe we can charge the loader.sin from another generic ROM, it should work (meanwhile its the same version)

[Q] Problems with Flash Tool

Hello guys, this is what happened to me yesterday. I wanted to flash stock ics to my SXS via flashtool. The problem was that flash tool got stuck at 2% so I thought I needs some time and left it there for quite some time, when I came back it was still at 2%. I didn't see any other option to unplug my phone. When I powered it on sony boot logo appeared and a phone with exclamation mark. I tried to repeat flash process and got the same result. Tried with 2 different pc-s, different usb ports/cables and older versions of flash tool. Still the problem is there :S
Any solution to this?
P.S Oh one more thing I can flash kernel successfully and I did, I actually can get into recovery and restore, but unfortunly problems remains.

Then my friend you should get it to service center.
Cuz by the looks of it you have tried every possible thing to revive your phone.
But many people who retorted the same problem as yours got their phones fixed by choosing repair option in seus

guys plz help me with some solution led green blinking is my phone dead ...????????
Have you tried those steps?

[SOLVED]is there special usb jig to directly make bootloader enter download mode?

i have a friend using samsung galaxy s2, and he said he is using some special modified usb that will make the bootloader enter download mode so that he flashed original firmware into his phone after it is bricked...
for x10 mini pro is there such cable? i need it because i think my phone is hardbricked...
it is bootloader unlocked and i flashed the original stock rom into the phone(in attempt to save condition where flashing customised kernel wasnt successful and it keep bootlooping...), and now i cant root it, cant On the phone to enter usb debugging mode, i cant do anything about it, i read so many threads but really didnt help me... , i can say that i tried all of them already...the phone just keep bootlooping the sony erricson logo on and off... using SEUS also didnt help because it shows i have latest version... and now i cant even flash other kernels because flashtool will show some error anyone facing this problem before? before i throw my phone my last hope will be the special usb that i want to find

Samsung phones can only be flashed using special cables, that is true, but SE provided a flashmode that always works, by turning off your phone and pressing the back-button before you plug in your usb-cable... In regards to that they're miles ahead of Samsung. Do you know how to get to Repair mode in SEUS or PC Companion?

the repair mode is something like flashing it using flashtool right? wait for the screen asking to connect with flashmode, off phone, press back button then plug in usb, but then SEUS shows i am having newest software? there is guide to make SEUS identify i am not having newest software version, but that is by turning on the phone, and getting file manager to edit something .prop files?
but sadly i really cant do that because i cant even turn on my phone now... what should i do? any other way to change the files inside my phone to make the SEUS detect i am not newest software so that it can download and flash the original rom inside my phone?

Try to flash THIS with flashtool, it's complete latest (2.1.1.A.0.6) firmware (Kernel and ROM) from SE.
(It comes in at about 213.5MB, although the site may report it's smaller. It will keep downloading until it's done though)

You said your bootloader was unlocked.. That doesn't seem to be the case...
Try This one, for locked bootloader instead.

yup, problem i cant flash roms other than stock roms because of locked bootloader...now i can only flash stock kernel, but cant update via SEUS/PCC because it cant detect newest version, probably because of 2.1update 1 version...do you have version 2.1 stock kernel? just wanna try other alternatives... by flashing stock older rom, hopefully SEUS will update it to 2.1update1 version...so far method that you provided now, and method that i think now is the last 2 method...

Yeh, you got it That is the basic procedure. As long as you follow the instructions in the kernel and rom threads carefully you should be ok.
The .ftf is made from the Sony Ericsson firmware that gets downloaded when you repair using SEUS or PC Companion. Not everyone can use the repair-option, that's why i keep it lying around

Follow the instructions carefully, for JB you need to do wipe data/factory reset (in xRecovery or CWM) before you flash the new kernel, and you have to format /system partition in mount and storage menu of CWM to get the proper partition size. After that you install the nAa's JB ROM and appropriate Google Apps, and if that is successful, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and in advanced menu wipe dalvik-cache and wipe batterystats... Then Reboot and wait...

[Q] Neo L vibrates but screen stays black and battery heats

Hello, help needed pls
My problem:
-Neo L vibrates when switched on but the screen stays black and the phone heats progressively.
- while on, it happened 2 times that the screen got black during the day. I could take a call once by flipping my finger on the black screen(phone was ringing).
What I tried to solve the issue after reading the forums:
-charge the phone, remove sd and sim card and start the phone. (succeeded 4 or 5 times out of around 50tries in 5 days, doesn't work anymore)
-update the phone and delete all my downloaded apps during the few times where the phone managed to start (didn't help)
-Used Sony PC companion to repair the phone (didn't help).
What I did not do:
- i didn't try flashing whatsoever or mess with the phone in any way(it's my first android phone). Really.
-As far as I know the phone did not receive a choc that could have caused the problem.
- i didn't try calling underwater. Aside from humidity i can not see any cause there
Any idea on how to solve this issue or the cause of the problem would be very helpful. Thanks.
First way
Use my mega guide for neo L in my sig below
And head over to that thread and find unbrick in there !
If that doesn't help then it's mean u can either go to sony or sell it
It is 100% hardware faulty if unbrick doesn't help :angel:
Good luck
Second way
By the way use SUS ! Don't use that suck PC Companion !
SUS is always great

Hello, thanks for the quick answer,
If you don't mind I think i will start with the second way..looks more reasonable. By SUS you mean Sony ericson Update Service I guess.
I didn't try flashing the phone, if second way doesn't work, do you still think unbrick is appropriate? will it void my warranty (valid in a faraway country)?
Thanks

Unless u unlock BL then it will void your warranty !
I'd prefer flashtool over SUS ! :angel: In some case , what if your pc hang during downloading firmware via SUS ! What if it is in the middle of process ! For unbrick using flash method will be million time easier and save a lot of time !
How can flash ftf void your warranty ? Don't worry mate

Plz check no final verification and see !
If not work then Reboot PC and install fastboot and flashmode driver in flashtool/driver ! There is no neo L driver so just install the 2 that i mentioned !
Plz note windows 8 cause some serious problem which i cant help ! If u r 7 then it is fine !
Hey Saingpor,
It seems the flash was successful. It said Flash successful but afterwards it said something like flashtool needs usb debugging and something else to be activated in order to work (which i can't check since the screen stays black).
So anyway, flash done, phone still not working. I tried changing the microsd and flashing again but with no result. Do you think that it's possible that this one time the phone fell over a month ago can be the cause of a hardware defect that affects the phone now? And if it's from origin, is it possible that the phone works perfectly for 3 months then suddenly stops working?
I don't get this. Anyway, thanks for your help.
