Currently my phone is running Wolfbreak rom with Doomkernel and it's still fine but I am planning on flashing a new rom like Feralab or ThGo.
My problem now is that I don't have an available internet connection at home so Seus or Pc companion won't work.
Can I still fix it with flashtool or something if it ever hangs?
Use flashtool, it doesn't need Internet access

Hi,
A few months ago Ive been forced to uninstall sony ericson app from my comp and also the x10 driver from device manager(they started to give bsods)
I have now installed CM6 by WB but I want to install se rom again by using seus. Would I have any problems with that? Once I download and install SE software,will I have problems to reflash it? because as far as I know my pc doesnt have its drivers,or does it?
It will have the drivers in SEUS. Run repair software.
Thanks, thats what I was thinking, but I was not too sure because how I uninstalled it from DM. It just because im going to a music event and I want full working camera,with zoom.then Ill get it back on
'will try that.
So i was running Tripnmiui and on baseband .54 and firmware 435?
and I wanted to update to the new SE Gingerbread, So i connected my phone to my computer and ran the update through the SEUS (PC companion). And it installed the update. But when i turned on my phone it kept boot looping the Sony ericsson logo..
I think i bricked my phone..
Anyone know how to unbrick it or fix it from here? with a possible tutorial?
By the way my battery is pretty low on my phone so i only have one shot.
Thanks you guys!!
Yea, Use the SEUS/PC Suite tool. Go to Update phone and search for the repair link. Connect the phone in flash mode and it ll get you back to stock.
Edit:
I would charge the phone first though, for at least like an hour.
U ran update through seus or pc companion??
Btw,try repairing it with seus again.

Cant mount the phone therefore i can't Connect to SEUS
Okay follow these specific instructions (I went through the same thing yesterday when I tried to update to the new Iris ROM)
Connect the phone to your comp and start PC Companion
At the PC Companion Home Screen click on the Start button in the Support Zone Tab
Click start again under the Phone Software Update section
A message that the PC companion could not find the phone will pop up.
Click on the repair phone link there and wait.
It took almost 20 mins but my phone unbricked to Stock 2.1
After trying the azzuzu root method for fw2.3.3, I have royaly efed my phone up.
My phone is not recognized by the computer. After being on 2.3.3 it reverted me back to 2.1. Everytime I plug it up it tries to install drivers but then it says unrecognized device. It has done this on my PC and my girlfriends PC. I have tried PC companion, and flash tool and niether one of them recognize my phone! So I'm stuck with an unrooted x10i .435. Please someone help me!

@OP
in short u are f****d.!
try rooting it with super one click or zroot(somethinng like that).
Yo.. let me explain something.
When i rooted and downgraded the kernel it used the old ADB drivers.
When i upgraded it required the new ADB drivers.
Maybe that is your issue.
flash the generic SE firmware with flashTool. It should work...
turn off phone - take out battery - press back key - insert usb - insert battery.
That should do the trick. Then Flashtool to stock
I probably have used this method 50 times the past 2 days trying to upgrade to GB. Always flashes ok but phone wont boot. Finally gave up and stayed with 2.1 and upgraded to MIUI. So it aint dead yet, just injured LOL
2 different computers won't recognize the phone, I can't flash with flashtool! It goes into flag mode but flashtooldoesnt recognize the phone. Somebody know how to manually install drivers?

Hi guys! Been a long follower of posts here in the X10 forums and the Acer A500 forums since I own both devices and it would be really great if you can help me in my problem with my X10:
( DEVICE: Sony Xperia X10 ; ANDROID VERSION: Stock/Official 2.3.3 )
Recently I have noticed a problem with my Xperia X10 since I updated it with Official 2.3.3 gingerbread update from sony, here are my observations:
* when connected to the PC, it only charges and does not sync or function as a mass storage in any way (I have tried turning off USB Debugging in the settings but nothing happened.
* I tried repairing it thru PCC or SEUE but still it cant be detected by the program (Even tried reinstalling PCC and SEUE for many times, also tried to sync it thru Flash Mode but it doesnt enter flash mode, the green LED just blinks but nothings even appearing on the screen even if I click on it for 10 minutes or so)
* I tried using Flashtool to install a stock or even a custom rom but like Ive said it wont enter flash mode
* One time I connected it, it tried to install the driver but it failed then suddenly the device disappeared (Even tried to look at Device Manager)
* Tried restarting the computer then connect the X10 but still its not detected
* Tried to hard reset it to see if there will be any changes but nothing happened
* Tried to install and reinstall the drivers included with Androxyde's flashtool and Azuzu's Flashtool but nothing happens, still it wont be detected
Now back to my problem, can I install an earlier stock rom or a custom rom in any other way other than using Flash mode just so that I can root it and install an ICS rom or FXP's Cyanogen 9 rom, or even install Beats by Dre & Bravia Engine tweaks for my X10? I've seen Doomlord's similar solution ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054818&nojs=1#goto_threadsearch ) sadly it's only for custom roms. Need your reply guys, thank you very much!

Hmm, Interesting problem. Are you sure you have checked Your device manager when you turned off your phone and pressed Back button and USB connected? Like this thing shows?
View attachment 1129524
If not, either these two ways:
1)Download These ADB driver here for X10i and look how they installed. See is it solved?"
2)Are you sure how to use flashmode?? Power off button, don't connect your USB to computer yet. Then press and hold Back button and connect the USB to your PC. The green light will retain and screen will be black all the time
3)If not, Try reinstall SONY PCC / Or try email SONY
AND!!!! BEFORE You do anything like installing custom rom or stock rom from XDA here, your X10 must BE ROOTED my friend??Or not, custom roms cannot be installed into your phones? and The link you pasted methods only worked after you rooted your X10+r installed recovery.
AND, back to your problem. Sorry but No. for 2.3.3official X10, rooting must be done via flashtool. And it's considered MI5 for installing ROMs without rooting!! Plus, ICS roms or CM9 only can be flashed after your phone's bootloaded is unlocked..and of course after rooting!!
Hope this helps.

Thank you very much on your reply whitefang! Your help is very much appreciated. Will try to test those things and will keep you posted ASAP.
Hi..
As it says, I was trying to unlock bootloader and turned out that Flashtool doesn't recognize my phone as rooted device at all, so why is that? I made sure that my phone is updated to the latest stock ROM, baseband..everything. And root works since I can access system files from root explorer (SU app is installed also)..I'm on Win8 and my phone was rooted using Flashtool 0.8.5 a long time ago..Any ideas?
I forgot to mention that "root" button on Flashtool is also grayed out.
Anyone?
have you tried latest flashtool ? windows 8 is new system with different structure like w7 or vista. however I have installed latest flashtool with PC Compaion on laptop with windows 8 and runs good. // the only think that I used there is flashing diferent kernels so I dont know if "root" button works or not.//
Yes I'm using the latest version with PC companion installed..
at my first try to flash I had several problems. One seemed to be caused by some kind of "wrong" root, means i could use all kinds of root apps correctly, but couldnt flash kernels etc... however, i used superoneclick and nothing changed.
As it didnt work, i repaired software via pccompanion and rooted with newest fllashtool (0.9) and all worked. I remember it because it nearly got me crying because i followed every step exactly.
