W8 Stock ROM 2.1.1.A.0.53
Download link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61155616/E16i_2.1.1.A.0.53_Sony Stock 2.1-update1.ftf (218 MB)
This is the original untouched stock firmware (E16i) directly extracted from binary blob from PCC using flash tool (not a nandroid backup).Maybe useful for flashing to original stock or as a base for new ROMs.
Hope this helps.

When updating using PCC.The firmware will be stored in db folder of PCC .(C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\).
Update /Repair your phone using PCC. Then search for blob_fs folder in db folder.There you can find 3 files with name starting FILE_. Then start Flash tool.In
Advanced menu select "Decrypt Files'. Point blob_fs as source folder and select the "FILE_" files.After decrypting select "create bundle" from Advanced menu.After completion you can find ftf file in firmwares folder.hope this helps

edit: i wouldn't flash the Rom now i can't flash back to 2.1 using PCC it only says for you Phone no Software available (tried flashing X8 and W8) PCC says Sony /Sony Ericsson Phone it doesn't detect X8 just Phone
Take back the original x8 2.1 kernel, then I think you can flash it

doesn't work, i flashed 2.1 kernel and tried installing Rom with PCC...
im downloading 2.1 tft Stock Rom i will flash it with Flashtool and after i try
PCC again. But download takes few hours connection (not mine) is very slow and there are many 2.1 stock rom tft links offline only 1 i found is working (2.1.1.A.0.0.6) and it takes long
can someone use this guide to make X8 Stock Rom?

maybe the W8 Version is not fully compactible with X8 and i can't download apps with W8 Rom getting random reboots and i can't flash back because PCC says Update-Server not available atm
Edit: Reparing Phone works again after i flashed 2.1 ftf and rebootet PC (i think rebooting PC worked for me)
Thats sucks, then I will try it later if it won't be dangerous.
Anyway, you can't flash with PCC. Have you tried with seus?

no but i do atm seems it works with SEUS and PPC works again too as i installed Stock Rom ftf and rebootet PC
i found it out and it was before 2.1.1.C.0.0 (i have found download link but im not sure what the newest version is)
found out that 2.1.1.C.0.0 should be newer than the 2.1.1.A.0.6 (should)

I don't understand where is the problem, you are now on ICS, you can't just flash some .62 zip via CWM. By doing that you will only(most likely) replace system partition, other stuff like kernel, baseband, data will be left from ICS.
ThilinaC told you to do a full flash first. Meaning, first flash some GB ftf, then root, then CWM, and then you can flash that zip in CWM.

hm, my advise:
flash .42 ftf, root, CWM, flash that zip you linked, and then flash stock .62 kernel(you can flash stock even on locked BL, of course if you don't have SIM-lock, meaning if your fastboot is enabled)
or you can check this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468866
and get .62 via OTA update, after flashing .42.

Yes, you can, if you didn't unlocked your BL via official way.
Here is easy tut how to root Mini/Pro/live/Active on Sony ICS ROM with unlocked bootloader with few steps.
You will need:
1. Flashtool
2. Fastboot drivers
3. Any kernel with CWM
If you have everything let's start.
1. Connect your phone to computer in fastboot mode
2. Open Flashtool and click "Flash" button,select "Fastboot mode" and click "OK"
3. When you done that click on "Select kernel to HotBot" and navigate to any custom kernel with CWM and click "OK"
4. Phone will boot your kernel and during boot process keep pressing "Volume Down" button to boot to CWM
5. If you booted to CWM mount sdcard and download "su-bin-3.0.3.2-efghi-signed.zip" and save it to sdcard
6. In CWM navigate to "su-bin-3.0.3.2-efghi-signed.zip" and install it
7. Reboot your phone and install "SuperUser" app from Google Play Store
8. Enjoy in rooted phone
If you have any question fell free to ask.
Easiest way. Thanks!

Flash the proper ftf file
It will reinstall proper kernel and everything and restore ur phone back to factory state
No it wont cause any damage until u flash wrong ftf file
Check the development section if u want some other version of stock ics

Why to post ur antutu score here??
Try this
Download and intall flashtool from this page.
http://androxyde.github.io/
then install the drivers in the drivers folder where you installed it.
then place this file (kernel) in the firmware folder.
View attachment MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.rar
then open flashtool and click on the lightning bolt icon. Then use flashmode and flash the kernel.
and everything will be normal again.
Always remember to follow instructions to the letter if you don't wan't to brick your device in the future.

If he has unlocked bootloader he can't fix his device via pc companion.
Which device uses? Are you sure he installed a cwm for the device he uses?

Since you are on unblocked bootloader flash this kernel if you want, it's a great one. Prerooted, with integrated cwm recovery and there is an overclocked version too. here is the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2299748
Read carefully the instruction on how to install this kernel. Note that you have to install one of this version of firmware: 6.1.1.B.1.54. You can find this version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028139
