I tried to flash nAa kernel(unlocked bootloader successfully before) with flashtool and flastool said it succeed. When i reboot my phone it comes up with nAa kernel screen and reboots again. It goes into an infinite loop within rebooting phone, only showing nAa kernel splash screen, nothing more and reboot. I can reach to cwm recovery. I flashed the latest MiniCM7-2.2.0 custom rom and wiped user data/cache. Same problem remained.
I decided to go back the original stock kernel and rom via flashtool. You know the rest; you select the stock files then press ok then it says "oh, ungplug usb, power off, hold back button and plug in usb again". I did this steps several times but flashtool cant recognize my phone. Not even a blink. The weird thing is, when i power off my phone and plugin usb(not doing the holding back button thing) the green light is on(it is not offline charging i know it) same as it goes into flashmode. I tried flashtool again with hope but couldnt recognized phone again. Even S1 tool cant recognize my phone. It seems completly lost!
I tried hopelessly with Pc Companion and get the same result. I found a post about "Gordons Gate Driver" but couldnt get any result with that. No tool can recognize my phone in flashmode, in normal mode(talking about the infinite rebooting state, not even a blink from flashtool).
Im out of ideas, even out of google . Is there someone to provide me with new idea? Or is there something im missing? Please help.
Thank you for reading my adventure hope someone helps.

You did not mention the model of your phone.
Always mention the model when posting.
In 2011 devices:
Press Volume DOWN key for flashmode(for flashing firmware via flashtool)
Press Volume UP key for fastboot mode(for flashing kernel)

I did mention that it is a mini pro in the title. Is there any other model info other than "mini pro", i dont know? I only know that it is a x10 mini pro.
I only know about back button thing, now trying the volume down key. Thanks for the tips.

Nope, it didnt work too. I will give another shot, i guess.
--------------------
Edit: Nothing happens. When i plug my phone with holding button(back, volume up or down) green led turns on. But flashtool(or others) says nothing. By the way, computer cant detect my phone too.

i recently flash the ginger dx rom, but when i hit the reboot option on the recovery after flashing it, the phone won't start :S it keeps showing me an screen after the letter "sony ericsson" where only shows four distortioned orange androids, and after that the phone reboot itself and never start, is it brick or what? what can i do?? please help me! i don't have the bootloader unlock, and that rom says it work with the stock kernel, so i don't know whats going on
sorry, the problem was that i flash an x8 rom on my x10 mini pro :S i didn't see that when i was doing that :O..is the phone bricked? what can i do then?
try going to flash mode. mount your sd card copy the right rom and flash the right one.

When you turn on the phone hold the back button

Connect the phone on the PC when. You connect it press the power the home and the back buttons the same time when the phone is rebooting release the power and the home buttons but still pressing the back button and you can enter in the flash mode and use the flash tool to get your phone normally

Some roms is not stable, yesterday i got same problem like you after flash cwm kernel, my phone boot to blank screen. I reboot, and it is working as well, and i dont know about that :cyclops:
I was i able to fix it with flashtool and the original .ftf stock firmware file.

Because I told you to unlock bootloader! You just flashed custom kernel with locked bootloader and get this issue. When you flashed stock firmware via flashtool you returned stock kernel and issue had gone

nAa-14 is for Gingerbread ROMS, ie, MiniCM7, if you want JellyBean you have to look for the nAa-JB kernel
To enter flashmode: Connect your usb-cable, press home and powerbuttons to reset, and then the back-button.

Ye Ye but nothing will happen.I cant connect to falsh mode
I think the phone is frozen. Sometimes my X8 does that too, after a reboot, it freezes and the screen is off, and it doesn't do anything when I press any button (but it's turned on). I have to pull the battery out and put it back in and then it turns on properly. So I think you have to wait until the battery is fully discharged, so it turns off. Or maybe you can turn it off somehow, I don't know the X10 mini well. Or disassemble it and disconnect the battery.
ofc, thats bad, nAa 14 works only for gingerbread . . . what about seus ?
take some time to read the FAQs
flashtool will work anytime.
prepare flashtool with the kernel you want, and click flash button
force reboot (power+home) and plug the device to pc keeping back button pressed
after flash completed, reboot to recovery and wipe /system, /data, /cache, /dalvik-cache
install correct rom+ gapps.
enjoy
PS: your brick, is NOT a brick

Hi everyone,
i bought a second hand Xperia Pro which came wih Lupus Kernel and Ultimate HD rom. Now I wanted to try the stock firmware for comparison but i can't flash it.
I've followed several guides and searched on the forum with no luck. what i've done is basically
- installed flashtool, latest version
- downloaded the stock firmware and put the .tft in the firmware folder
- open the driver installer from the driver folder in flashtool and selecting fastboot, flashmode and xperia pro drivers to install
- click on the flash icon, select the correct firmware, click flash
- when the window with the animation asks for it i press and hold the volume down button and attach the usb cable. I keep pressing the button and the lupus logo appears, then nothing happen and the window with the usb cable animation goes on
i've tried several times and also on different computers... and... to get thing worse, i've just bricked my xperia :s after several attempts, a menu apeared on the display (i have no idea why, i must have done something different from the previous attempts) i think it was called lupus cwm. One of the options was about wiping the phone... i've tried with that one, then he asked me "Root access is missing. Root Device? This cannot be undone" and I choosed yes... not very wise to choose yes or no when you don't know what you are talking aobut, i know
So basically if i try to turn the phone freezes on the lupus logo and i have to pull the battery out. And, no need to say it, nothing has changed when it comes to trying to flash it with flashtool
any help will be much appreciated, i really don't know what else i could try now...

You did all the steps to flash the stock firmware ftf like it should be done! Please try to take off the battery, wait a few seconds, reinsert it and press and hold volume down while connecting the usb. A green led should light up and it should start flashing

thanks for your help. I've tried removing the battery but it's just the same. A blue led, not green, turns on for a couple of seconds on my xperia pro... i've recorded a short video so you can check that i'm doing everything properly...
OUCH i can't insert links :s youtube .com/ watch?v=_hIZMn9HrlA
so you think it's not a problem if i have bricked the phone wiping off the firmware? the flashing procedure should work the same?
MUAHHAHA got it!!! my phone is finally flashed! i was just pressing the wrong button :s even if all the guides specific for xperia pro were saying to pross the volume down button, i had to press the BACK button! and the led did turn on green indeed, as you were saying
just another question: what happened when that CWM menu asked me "Root access is missing. Root Device? This cannot be undone" and I choosed yes? does that mean i rooted the phone? and is it stil rooted or it's been overwritten by the original firmware i have just flashed?
thanks

I'm sorry, I forgot the thing about the back button instead of volume down, too
If you have an unlocked bootloader, your phone normally should automatically be rooted when you flash a custom kernel as (nearly) all kernels for our devices include this feature. But as you have flashed the stock firmware now, all was overwritten and you have to flash another custom kernel to get cwm back
ok, thanks a lot
