Hay guys. One of my friend got bricked x10i. I don't know how that phone bricked. He sent me to recover it. When I try to turn that phone its just vibrate and green led light flash for two second nothing else, any one have any idea to unbrick this phone? I think before brick phone was in stock 2.3.3 Rom and locked boot loader.

If you use Sony Update Service, you don't need ftf file. It is all automatic.

Wrong !!!
Mate, u should relock your bootloader for safety, then u flash stock kernel then u repair USE SEUS = "Sony Ericsson Update Services".
Using Custom Kernel will bricked !!
As a simple answer, you should restore firm kernel and Repair USE SEUS HOpe helped.

Not Wrong Mate
I reflashed just stock firmware, without any reflashing stock kernel, or relocking bootloader numerous times. Always done it with SEUS.

Just so you know, Sony allow you to unlock bootloader so no need to relock, just restock with seus, you will still have ulbl

Hi sir, do you have time? I cant figure out what is wrong with my x10. When i try to flash those Generic Stock Rom, i get to have errors flashing. It aborts sometime when flashing system.sin and other sin depending on the tft file... i dunno what version my phone is but my pc detects it with flashmode. When im using Seus, it fails flashing in about 90% of the process... when booting my phone, just a quick vibrate with green flashes once. Do u have skype account? Hope u have time and can help me. Most of the links in xda our outdated. And i know my phone is outdated too. Thanks and more power

I think KeiranFTW was planning to do a cwm recovery bootable through a stock kernel and a locked boot loader. Bug him
if i get the european ftf for ICS and root on my Locked BL Xperia U, I can try to use the already existing CWM for Xperia U, and make it work more or less the same way it works on 2.1Stock X8, by changing one file that is loaded on the boot, to add an instruction for the keypress and the recovery .tar file... i can try, but maybe no success... just waiting to get my hands on ICS

Man, you can already get ICS for your device, like i did. Get FTF from st25a from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916419
Flash it via flashtool and tick "exclude Baseband".
You'll get an european version, like i did.
The use Bin4ry script to root it (it works, i've tested it).
Can you then let us know your progress?

I didn't know this was possible...exclude baseband and you get a European version? How? I know where that box is in flashtool but didn't know about this issue. My phone has poor reception since I used the Indian ICS ftf, I live on the other side of the world and wondered was there a slight compatibility issue.

I'm on TMN and my sms's are just fine. And i'm using the Australian FTF without baseband. Works like a charm. And i don't use the stock sms app. GO Sms is a lot better. Heavier, but better.

My Xperia sola is currently stuck at the sony logo. This is because:
I installed the jellybean custom rom and forgot to make a backup. I didn't like the jellybean and wanted to return the phone back to its original state but I didn't have a backup of it.
So i flashed the kernels 6.1.1.B.1.54 and 6.1.1.B.1.10 thinking that then I could plug in my phone and repair it using Sony Pc companion and revert it back to its original state but it won't even appear in Sony Pc Companion because the phone keeps turning on and off.
What can be done?
If u hav a flashtool then just flash the stock ics ftf file and then u have your working phone!!

Just use flastool. Download tft and flash it. You'll be ok.

PCC would not update unlocked boot loaders.
You can relock your boot loader and PCC wil update.
Or you can build ftf file from PCC files, and flash with flashtool.
How to Create an FTF file of Your Xperia ICS Firmware
I have used both methods, and both worked. I reccomend the second, this way you always have the original firmware in case you need it.

You flashed a custom kernel? Thats why....
did you unlock your bootloader at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com?
As my signature says, i hate unlocking bootloader. This is the reason why as problems like this pops out after you unlock. If you were looking for root, update your phone (after its fixed) and root using doomlord's root in the xperia p dev. forum.

First time I upgraded to ICS was via PC Companion, but i didn't like it so I flashed a ST25i GB ftf on my ST25a (excluded baseband)..
Now i want to flash a ICS ftf to root+CWM and try GB-Rocks rom, but Flashtool (last version) don't recognize it!
Also PC Companion says I have the latest firmware, so I can't update.. Repair option works, but when trying to flash it stops..
What should I do?
