You have a faulty xrecovery installed mate!
Use SEUS to repair. Flashtool to root.
Once done, let me know. I have a safe, simple way of installing xrecovery (that works).

Hi mate thanks alot for helping me!
Just to let you know..I used the Flashtool couple of times before and it always worked. (even it said that it worked when I did backup)
I still got some questions before I do what you told me:
When I will use SEUS to repair - will it install the stock rom on my device?
Do you think that the flashtool did backup my current version and data?
and..after I'll install xrecovery again..will I have my last "restores"? (will I be able to restore?) because the info there might be more expensive to me than the device itself.
Thanks alot again!! I will start working on it as soon as you will answer me please again A.S.A.P.

I ment that I used xrecovery and it worked to tell you that it was installked right, maybe something went wront but in first place it wasn't installed faulty.
and im looking for the SEUS, but i cant find any download for it, does the pc companion is good enough? (or maybe any 1 can give me a link for the download please?)

Ups backup is required for ur pc so that in case ur current goes off in midway you dont endup in bricking ur fone.
Yes ftf needs to be placed inside firmwire folder.
Open flashtool.re.keep it running.
Shut down your phone ,connect the data cable to phone,keep the back button pressed and insert the data cable to usb port. Your led will turn green. Goto flash and browse firmwire folder to select the ftf file.
Enjoy flashing!!!

"in case my current"=my pc turns off? quit the process in midway? i didnt really understand.
i cannot shut down my phone because its turning on and off automaticly till SE screen..
i figured out how to flash by conecting in without the battery and, press back button while puting on the battery (i hope it will work)
"flashtool.re.keep" -what this means?
but my main problem now is that i cant know what is my battery status (you need at least 50%- so i cant flush untill i find a solution for that..)
any help please??
Tnaks!!

I mean, ups is required so that evem your power supply/electricity goes off, you can carry on your work.
You can use external battery charger to charge your battery only.
Before flashing,pull out your battery...as you said.
Last resort: if all fails, go to se service center, they will repair it. They use the same pc companion. When i tried to flash my fone earlier,i was a dumb fella. I bricked it. Took it to service center and got it fixed.
Before flashing, watch doomlord's video of flasing at least 4 times. Then read the instructions and flash, keep the video running and pause at required places. This is how i flashed successfully on next instance.

Hi mate if you think you backed up properly from xrecovery and it still in sd card, use card reader to retrieve it to pc. The file should be under sdcard/xrecovery/backup/xxxxx.zip. then try recover it from working phone with xrecovery. Hope this help n good luck.

Hey guys,
I dropped my X10i last night and now it wont charge or connect to my computer. Before I take it in for repair I've been searching the forums and Google to find a way to unroot it without the cable but having no luck finding an answer anywhere, if the question has been answered please link me to the relevant thread since I'll have just overlooked it. I've got an adapter that will let me copy stuff onto the microSD card in it so can use that if necessary.
If there isn't any way to do this can anyone tell me whether or not it's safe to just uninstall ROM Manager, xRecovery, Superuser, BusyBox and Titanium Backup and hope O2 or Sony don't realise it's rooted?
My phone is still running the stock Gingerbread firmware.
Edit: froze most of them using Titanium Backup and seems to be running fine so I'm guessing I'm good to uninstall them after backing up to reinstall if Sony fix it. I'm not finding anything to hide or remove Superuser from a Rooted phone. Any help with this last step would be great!

He did say that his USB port is screwed, and he's trying to get his port fixed. It's a hardware issue rather than a software issue which you Can fix with flashtool/Sony software.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Just got back from my local O2 store. For anyone with a similar issue I didn't manage to unroot it, I just deleted all the apps that gave away that it was then bought Superuser and enabled Ghost mode. O2 agreed the phone was broken and they replaced it with an Xperia Arc for free since it was within warranty no questions asked.
Okay, I installed CM9 ShockGenMOD on my Xperia U and it worked flawlessly. Later I saw this thread in APPS section "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340073" and installed it using CWM on my phone, my bad it said JB only
Now my phone isn't proceeding ahead ShockGen logo after the installation. Xperia U did not have removable SD card so I can't even add NEW rom from PC to start from scratch.

Have you used PC Comapanion before?
If you have you can repair the phone without connecting the phone.
Click start under support zone, click start under phone tablet software update, click repair in the window that says can't find phone / tablet,, PCC wil start downloading files and will ask you to connect in flash mode.
The phone must be turned off before connectinmg in flash mode.

Thank you very much guys! Flash tool worked THANKS
sorry for my late reply.
I will suggest that you should always have a backup in case of incidents like these.. this is a development site.
Accidents happen while developing.
Flashtool is always the best way to recover your phone and always have nandroid backup when you install a new mod.
Because when you flash to stock you lose your data but restoring nandroid backup using custom kernel solves the problem!
Hope i helped.
Thanks everyone my prob is solved! I did flashed it

Or
Plug your device into a PC. Install "Sony PC companion"
and then to reinstall of the firmware...
The first options is faster. The second option is what people usually do when there is something major wrong with their Sony operating system.

Sorry I'm not understanding you. If you are in the standard sony firmware, then going into your devices 'settings' and then scrolling down the 'backup & restore' and then selecting factory reset... then thats all you need to do. You device will have that as an option.

I remember by Samsung or other Devices you can Reset the phone in the Bootmenu, or recovery Mode. On sony ther is no Recovery mode or anything else i know! So how can i make a Hard reset with it. For the People who mean go in the Settings and make this and that.......... it doesnt work, becouse i dont come on anything in the phone because the Display is locked!!!
Many thanks for helping me and sorry for my bad english

If you connect your device to a pc running PC Companion, you can select the option to reinstall the latest firmware and then choose to wipe the device (factory reset).
You will lose all of your data obviously, but it will also get around the pattern lock screen that your son has created.

This is indeed the only solution. You need to download a .ftf, even if you don't find your country it is still working and flash t with Flashtool. As I am not sure which model you have, you need to look on the forum for find the good .ftf.

@tiestobunio
Well the device is screwed. Boot s1 partition has been damaged. As the phone will not boot now restoring original ta is not possible. Using JTAG might restore it but its usually expensive and is not successful
every time (depends on skill of person preforming. )
Ask your friend to pay up. As far as my knowledge goes, apart from JTAG restore is impossible.
Sorry for your loss.
And for the rest of you, don't give advice if your not fully aware of the problem

Without thinking I gave the phone to the service because here "decent" response does not waited.
Well either by some great miracle they will fix it (don't keep your hopes up) or will return it and say that it's dead and gone.
What exactly did they say when you gave it to them ?

You are screwed. There is a way but it is hard. I have no experience with this method. You must find the testpoint of the phone first though. I do not think anyone knows where is the testpoint.
