Help!
I have an Xperia P. I decided to try cyanogenmod using the freeXperia projects fine work.
However I have seriously messed up it seems. After following the tutorial on DooLords page I encountered an small error, the Cyanogenmod 9 boot screen got stuck. No big deal. Apparentl this can happen. So i thought that I wouldn't risk doing anything more and would go back to the safety of my rooted Stock Rom.
Now however I have a bootloop of Sony going to Cyanogenmod. The phone now says that it is NOT rooted meaning that i can't flash any other kernels or roms to return to normal. I am at a dead end. I am a first time poster, a bit of a noob, but frequent visitor to the forums. Iwould really appreciate anyones assistance.
Bro, not rooted doesnt mean you cant flash kernels. I suggest you to use flashtool and fash official stock rom and thats it.
Bootloop
Bro what does flashtool say when you connect it to the computer??
Plz giv details....

Hi, thanks for the reply. I have sorted the problem. However I'm not exactly sure how. I had flashed a kernel that had relocked the bootloader i think meaning that I couldn't flash any rom through flashtool. Then when the phone started to run out of battery I couldn't even get to fastboot mode or flashmode. I left it overnight on charge with the bootloop running over and over again which gave me enough juice to reflash. All back to normal now. Phew!

I believe if you want to flash Alien rom, you must unlock the bootloader after you rooted your phone, install recovery, then install Alien Rom. At this time, try to remove the battery and put it back in and turn the phone on again to see whether phone loads. If not, you may need to flash sbf and start over again.

You are correct sir/ma'am...
Must be unlocked before flashing Alien Rom. Use this process to get back up and running and then re-root. But before flashing a full ROM the next time, make sure your bootloader is unlocked. This P-ROM only needs rooted and you can use Bootstrap Recovery to flash it. Its actually a REALLY REALLY good P-ROM. Hope this helps and good luck!
i had figured it out last nite but thnx for the help still.. really appreciate it
Hi friends,
I am writing to you because in the Spanish forums on telephony have not had much luck, apparently no one knows my problem and nobody has experienced before, the question is that since I opened the bootloader I have not had any problems, and loaded the roms kernels without problem until a few days ago, after a long season with a MIUI rom I was going pretty well but appear new roms for the Neo because I wanted to try and I found that when trying to boot into fastboot light load make a flashing blue micro automatically if I pressed the button off the phone starts the rom and I can not enter bootloader mode, I tried to wipe and reinstall the same data again rom but no way the bootloader will not boot.
I hope you can help me, greetings and thanks

hi even i had the same problem . I dint figure out any solution so i flashed my stock rom and only few custom roms are able to boot on my phone !....I would suggest you to flash back the stock rom or use flash tool and try the custom roms once again !
Thanks a lot,
but, after flash stock rom, can you acces to bootloader or reflash with flashtool another kernels????? I can install roms with CMW but not kernels with bootloader.....
HELP!!! after searching all the posts i cant find a fix for this, i was running Team Rom on my X10, decided to change to MIUI prime, for some reason my phone then wont boot up after reboot? just stays on SE logo,I tried the SE PC companion, and after running the update process there, it returned error: there is no software available for your phone at this time??
I cant find any reference to this anywhere online??
Has anyone come across or know of a fix??
Thanks in advance
Get Flashtool. Look in the dev section.
just flash back your original firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733 using Flashtool and redo the rooting back..back to your MIUI Rom flashing problem..did you read the cobrato method of flashing locked/unlocked bootloader?? if yes..after flashing the MIUI Rom completed using CWM5..immediately flash lockedBL.zip (i presume your X10 is locked)..then reboot
I had a similar problem, I screwed up flashing between roms and the phone wouldn't boot up. I ended up wiping everything, on phone and sd card. I really screwed up! I tried SEUS repair but it wouldn't let me, my bootloader is unlocked so that's why I suspect. In the end I flashed a stock 2.3.3 rom and went from there, all's good now. As for SEUS, even re locking the bootloader didn't help, something to do with DRM, not sure, at least flashtool is a life saver
you could always try the Update service from Sony, saved me a lot of times as that little gem
Flash back to 2.1 generic firmware using flashtool.
You'll need to find the 2.1 firmware on Google(its an xda thread). Then via flash tool flash that firmware. Now everything should work.
I hope you know how to put your phone in mto flashmode

Hi,
First of all I know there is a lot of thread about this but i read most of them but i couldn't find a solution to my problem.
I bricked my phone when i was trying to put up the ics rom and the custom kernel for that. I know that i shouldn't had to try, but i did and its went bad.
So the problem is that my phone stuck at SE logo. I cant get into the recovery. When i try to flash an another kernel it says it was successful but nothing happens with the phone.
I tried to repair it with SEUS but it says "your phone has the newest software" or something like this. Pc Companion does the same.
Please help me i've tried everything, but its still not good. Are there any chance to get my phone back to life? If there is, please let me know it.If i take it to a repairer, they could fix it?
Thanks to everyone who spend some time to help me!
super sorry for you.
try downgrading first and then upgrading the kernel. and try flashing a stock Rom 2.1 or 2.3. hope it works out. PV message me if you ever get it fixed. I remember really messing up my x10 unlocking the bootloader, the program froze on me and man the results we crazy. but it all worked out.
Hey buddy ur phone isn't bricked don't worry get flashtool and flash global generic 2.3.3 firmware (.ftf file type) I think it in 2nd or 3rd post in flashtool thread. That'll put u back to "from-the-shop" settings

Thank u so much its working now
Hi guys
I recently upgraded to ICS(Stock swiss one) and after using it for a few days without problems I flashed a kernel. I don't think it was meant to be flashed on ICS, so I reflashed the stock kernel again and now my phone doesn't get service and the IMEI is blank in service menu. Does that mean my phone's bricked?
Try to flash the ICS kernel?

I flashed the whole ICS firmware and that solved my problem, thanks though
xperia s is generally very hard to kill, as i cannot imagine how can you loose fastboot or flash mode those are handled by software not designed to be altered and noone would ever want to
I was trying to deodex my rom and my phone got stuck up in bootloop. now it won't start. If I connect the USB the LED is red! I couldn't get it to flashmode or fastboot
Edit: It's the battery after charging for sometime I got into fastboot...
oh huh! while playing around I mistakenly flashed cache.sin as boot in fastboot! :-S
Guys,
I need help here too, i'm not sure if i did it correctly. This is all about rooting my XPS.
1. Updated to firmware .75
2. Waited for ICS 4.0.4 and updated.
3. Unlocked bootloader
4. Used flashtool , rooted with pre-rooted img available in XDA
5. flashed recover-img
6. flashed kernel.sin
My device could not boot into system instead it went to CWM Recovery Mode. But now it works fine. I can browse through my device. I'm still not satisfied with the way i've rooted my device.
Is there a way that i can do a clean reset and update ICS 4.0.4 and root my device with proper guide. I don't seem to find an easy guide here as some of the guide does not specify where to go bout getting something.
Thanks
