I assume you have unlocked bootloader and done all the rooting and stuff right?
Ok then follow these instructions.. I know you have done them before but I want you to do it again so that I don't leave any solutions..
1.Reinsert battery(don't attempt to boot it here)
2.Put it on charging for 15 mins.. tell me if orange light blinks or not
3.Disconnect it.
4.Try booting into bootloader

Yes I rooted successfully,
it is connected to PC now and the orange light is on, when I hold power button it vibes 4 times!
I try your solution now,
Thank you for your concern and time!
Edit:
I'm doing your solution, orange light is on and not blinking,
after five minutes into charging it did vibe 4 times!
nothing happened!
I don't have my electric charger, I use USB charger for now.
every time after 5 min of charging i get 4 buzzes!

Just keep the battery out for sometime and then try again
thank you man!
after ~ 45 min I put the battery back and Viola! it turned on!
I finished the remaining steps.
after unlocking the screen the only thing I get is the welcome screen from Fulmix ROM (xpirit presents ... fulmix rom)
after a few moments the start up wizard starts but after few steps crashes and restarts!
EDIT
I powered off, it won't start again, I guess overheated again! so I removed battery, what should I do now?
Wait for it to cool down again, then try a different kernel

You mean flash it with another rom?
I guess I try : MIUI v5 3.9.20 Unofficial Port [4.1.1]
You don't have to flash a new ROM, I just told you to flash another kernel (say: boot.img). Just choose one from Original Android Development Section.
sorry for inconvenience!
I found this kernel "fulmix.Kernel #3" (it has the same name "fulmix")
according to my situation how am I supposed to install it?
this is from the mentioned thread (which I don't understand the proceture!) :
Go into adb/fastboot directory
Put the fulmix.Kernel#xx.img in that directory
Open CMD and type: "fastboot flash boot fulmix.Kernel#xx.img"
Reboot
Click to expand...

is adb/fastboot a directory on SD card?
I don't have a card reader now!
I forgot to mention that I followed this instruction for rooting and installing rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076675&highlight=don+t+turn+on
It's a directory on your PC, where you have to have the fastboot / adb binaries installed. Just download one of the boot.img installers to be found in ROM threads and replace the boot.img in it with fulmix kernel img.

revert back to ur nandroid backup then.. or if u dont have it then wipe data and reinstall the rom
I re-installed the same rom, the same thing happened, then I held down the power button and activated "Airplane Mode" and this time I could finish the start-up wizard!
cool rom but it fails to use sim service! (sim card service is off, no sim)
should I install another rom?
My "Desire X" has 2 sim card slots, will I be able to use them both in case of a successful rom installation? 'cause I noticed there is no option in setting for two sim services,
and I don't have a Nandroid backup.
I think my problems are due to my Desire x being ' two-sim ' !
You should have said before that you are using dual sim version of Desire X! Now your problems are obvious, because the ROMs in this forum are for single sim version of Desire X only! They owrk for dual sim version sometimes, but there are bound to be problems because hardware is a bit different between these phones.
I didn't back-up my rom, now guess I should google for time machine! :crying:

I know this is told and explained at least hundred times in our forum but every newbie keep on asking about how to do it everytime newbie comes in forum. So here are simple steps to install rom in Atom Life and similar models.
I am requesting all of you, Please do not keep explaining same thing again and again, Just mention this link. Its better and time saving...That's all.
===================================================
HOW TO INSTALL ROM IN ATOM LIFE AND SIMILAR MODELS?
___ by indiacam
------------------------------------------------------------------
USE THIS INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK
1) Take a branded SDCard or good quality SDcard with less than 2GB capacity and format with FAT16 (FAT) in your pc. Bad or cheap SDCard is not detected in most cases.
2) Copy "AL1.DIO" file in the root of SDCard. Do not copy any other file in SDcard. Insert SDCard in Atom.
3) Be sure that battery level is above 75%
4) This is very important step now. Press RECORD key (first key from top at right side of device, see Image-1) and keep it pressing, dont release it. While pressing RECORD key inside, press stylus at bottom and wait until the bootloader screen appear as shown in Image-2.
When Bootloader screen appears you can release RECORD key.
5) If your SDCard is perfect, as shown in Image-2 you will see a line at bottom of bootloader as.....
****Mini-SD DETECTED******
Now you will see the rom is being read from SDCard and percentage will be shown on next line starting from 0% to 100% and again upto around 47%. Thats normal. After that screen will go blank and device will start to restart.
6) You just need to wait for few seconds and rom installation completes. Now you will simply continue as instructed until new Today screen appears. Device may ask you to TAP screen to continue, then Align Screen then enter Region and Date-Time and may be the owner information, etc. Some instructions will not show if rom is customized not to enter such information.
7) Today screen appears and you are done!

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) ..... in second post.... <<WORTH READING BEFORE FLASHING
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
1) Can I flash with my CHARGER CONNECTED?
Answer: here >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5386637&postcount=16
2) After bootreset my device shows bootloader screen as mentioned above but MiniSD Card is not detected.
Answer: There are several reasons why SDCard is not detected....
Possible Reason 1: Your MiniSD card may not be formatted in FAT16 (FAT) format. If you have formatted it in pc, it is possibly formatted with FAT32. Reformat it in FAT16 format and try again.
Possible Reason 2: May be your SDCard is is bigger size than 2GB. The SDCard must be less than 2GB and should be formatted in FAT16 format.
Possible Reason 3: This problem also is caused by unbranded or cheap quality SDCards. Even some unbranded SDCards are not good for installing rom. Try with really good quality SDCard and if fails try with some other.
3) After bootloader, my device did read all the rom from SDCard and showed percentage uptp 100% and then again upto 47% but after that it restart the device system did hung with blank screen. Now nothing is happening and all keys seems not responding' Is my device dead?
Answer: No, may be your device is not yet dead.
Possible Reason 1: It is possible that the ROM file you downloaded might have gone corrupted while downloading or while copying to SDCard. Try downloading again from same location or from Mirror and copy on freshly formatted SDCard. There are several occasions I have found that Rom file was corrupted and it was corrected when new mirror was made available.
Possible Reason 2: It is possible that your battery was not full or at least above 70% when you tried flashing. Flashing may need more power while in process. Be sure battery is above 70% or more. Just leave your battery on charge in same position for some more time and try reflashing.

Assuming that you have tried the instructions stated on the first post. Try using a branded miniSD as this is maybe the reason to your problem.

Thanks mate, but for some reason even after I followed your steps, I cannot see the bootloader screen. As soon as I press both the record button and click soft reset with stylus, all I can see is the screen keep flashing white every 3 secs or so, and after waited for like 1-2 mins still nothing, just keep flashing...what have I done wrong?? could my Atom life be a newer version or something??

Even I confirm this that I have Flashed at least 10 times with CHARGER CONNECTED to "O2 ATOM LIFE" and battery with less than 14%, and it always went smoother and bit faster.
But remember do always as wise people say. If it is said flash with battery only with more than 75% charged.
One more thing, I only confirm that I did this with O2 Atom Life, dont know about other models. Do it only if someone confirms for your model.
what if my SD card is only 1 GB ... is it possible to flash ?

The procedure can only be done using MiniSD...try using another MiniSD card.
alright..
i've read possibly 5 or 6 threads from start to end, post by post last week..
some people faced similiar problems but none of them faced exactly the same..
only one guy did, but i don't know if he could solve it or not..
i'm trying to install Wolf's gingerbread ROM but i have a problem on flashing..
i've downloaded all the files in this topic and followed all the directions there correctly..
i have installed SEMC Flash Drivers..
tried different USB ports..
but i keep receiving this error:

edit:
here is a similiar thread but i get the error sooner..
**
edit:
this either didn't work..
the green led never turn on, until i put the battery back in..

edit:
can this be the problem:
in the tutorial's pictures "Firmware Content" frame shows the included .sin file

edit:
I solved the problem with a very wierd way.
Hope it helps when you try.
After you've extracted and installed Flashtool;
go to your computer's Control Panel.
Open "Clock, Language and Region".
Click "Region and Language".
Choose format as English (United Kingdom); and location as United States.
Click ok and close control panel.
Now you shold be able to see loader.sin and kernel.sin files inside "Firmware Content" frame when you open Flashtool.
Same error to me...I try everything, every tool that I found for X10 but nothing help it...I also try wotan server with several different firmwares but always same error...ERROR: file header write failed!
I think that is imposible to repair without some dongle like setool...
i try to help...
1.first root ur stock rom n install xrecovery....
2.backup stock rom using xrecovery..
3.wipe data, wipe cache, n wipe dalvik cache using xrecovery...
4. install wolfbreak rom using "XRECOVERY".. When finish, put out the battery
5.lastly install the 2.3.3 n .71 baseband using flashtool....

i even made a battery charger from a usb cord to make sure it wasn't the battery being dead...

any news?
I was having the EXACT same issue that led me to this thread. I had a custom kernal loaded so not sure if that was why I was getting "error flash aborted". Anyhow as someone mentioned here, I held down the back button until the entire flash was completed. That finally worked. Thanks!

Nope sorry mate I have two devices, that's why i assume its hardware failure because they were both flashed the same way and my primary one is fine (running FXP45)
The bricked X10 is actually from a much newer batch which is odd, you would think the first one to die would be the one i have been flashing roms on since i debranded my 1.6 rom!
The phone is beyond my help now i think because its not even getting into flash mode and neither SEUS or flashtool can see it. It slowly got worse and worse until it wouldn't do anything at all.
I have been using Wolf's tweaked GB ROM for ten days.
I solved the problem with a very wierd way.
Hope it helps when you try.
After you've extracted and installed Flashtool;
go to your computer's Control Panel.
Open "Clock, Language and Region".
Click "Region and Language".
Choose format as English (United Kingdom); and location as United States.
Click ok and close control panel.
Now you shold be able to see loader.sin and kernel.sin files inside "Firmware Content" frame when you open Flashtool.
X10 failure in flashing ROM
I experienced a very hard situation after an unsuccessful ROM flashing onto my x10. Flashing procession was nearly finished but error message was happened and then aborted! Since that my device was permanently unbootable at all, when press the switch button to turn it on, there was no vibration nor SE boot up logo, just a red light brinked up for a few seconds. It seemed to be permanently dead. I tried many ways to reflash ROM onto the device via SE PC Companion, SESU, FlashTool but the program couldn't detect the device nor wiring on flash mode.
The device could not be accessed at all. Is there any experts who can solve this problems, please show me and the other owners how to fix X10 in this matter upon the software; programs, and the obvious procession. That would be greatly appreciated.

blinking red you say?
try to charge your battery first, probably using a desktop charger, or another fully charged battery, and re-do flashing through either SEUS or repair thru PCCompanion.
blinking red led indicates battery power too low to boot.
if that fails, i'm afraid you have to try and see a tech

I was able to flash back to stock generic firmware 2.0.A.0.504 using this, not sure if this was the fix or coincidental. Using X10 Flash tool 0.5.3.0.
From there I have flashed the correct BB, Doom kernel for unlocked and recovery yadda yadda. The phone lives (for now...)

Yes I could flash to a stock ROM and see what happens but are we sure that will not remove the pictures and videos?
OK I dont think that is going to be an option as my pc does not see the device attached via USB.
And when I have Odin running it cant see the device
Sudgestions?
1.It will surely not wipe photos,because you don't format the internal SD.It just removes apps,contacts...
2.look at my signature and follow my guide.If your PC can't see phone,then look for Hopper8's thread(link in guide or search on XDA)
Do you want your phone fixed or not ? I remember you from a couple of months back with that app that you refused to accept would only run on unrooted stock. And here we are fast forwarded a couple of months & again you're refusing to accept the advice/method to fix you've been given (which works & takes all of a couple of minutes; and if it doesn't work first go you look for Hopper8's 'Odin won't flash' thread).
You can either fix the phone or not. No skin off our noses either way *shrugs*

That's strange!! Hmm.. get or make a USB jig and use it to enter Download mode.
Yep we are on the same wave lenght! I have ordered a Jig this morning. I will report back and let you know what happens.
Ok I have the USB jig and this has forced the phone into downlaod mode. I had to remove the battery plug the jig in and then put the battery in this then took me into download mode.
However Odin still cant see the device.
I have confimred the Odin does work as I have a secon GS2 that I have tested with and theres no problem.
Whats next?
Any advice?

It would apear that the volume button is not working which means I cant press up to enter Download mode. Is there a way to bypass the volume switch?
Hello everyone, posting here after a long time.
Getting straight to the business. Yesterday, I put my phone down and had a sleep. But in the morning when I woke up finding that the alarm had failed to go off, I checked my phone and was surprised to find it turned off. I tried switching it on but it won't turn on. I thought that the battery had died, so I put it to charge. But while booting up, the 5 LEDs lit up but the phone just won't go beyond the boot logo. So I just let it charge for some time and then forced restart it and went to CWM. CWM showed me numerous errors, like this while starting CWM

and this while mounting anyting or installing zip from sdcard
and this while wiping data
I tried changing the kernel using Fastboot but that didn't make any difference; instead after 3 attempts my phone was recognized as "???????? fastboot".
I'm totally stumped. I don't know what happened that my phone drained its battery and then refuses to go past the Boot logo.
So, can anyone help me out please? I was on Ultimate ROM v11 with Experimental v9.0b Kernel.
Thanks.

Try to flash Stock ICS via Flashtool! I hope that I don't need to describe you excactly what to do
@Imperial_Raj
Are you trying to make us break our necks? Rotate the images and make the reasonable size to read.
Try fastboot erase system, then try to flash.
And on more thing, were you late for work that morning?:silly:

I'm really sorry for the orientation of the images but my image hosting messed it.
And Fastboot doesn't recognise my device properly.
And yes, I was late for my school, lol.

Sadly, flash mode just doesn't work.
So what do you guys suggest? Shall I give it to Sony Service guys for a repair?

You can boot to CWM but flash mode doesn't work. how come?
If it's a hardware problem they probably will have to replace the MB which not going to be cheap.

press the power button for few seconds, until you get 4 vibrations. First one vibration and then continuous 3 vibrations. After that leave the mobile for few minutes, say for 10 minutes. And then try connecting it in fastboot or flashboot. If you can get into flashboot, just flash the stock ROM. and then boot it in to fastboot.
Well, I didn't knew what I did, but here's my solution.
I enter to fastboot mode (blue light) and flash a boot.img from a ROM, I flashed the munjenis kernel.
Then I flashed the eXperience ROM and installed it, no problem, but still stuck at Sony logo, well, after screaming because I realized I bricked my phone, I got an idea, flashed the FXP kernel and later on flashed the CM10 and it worked!
Doesn't get stuck anymore but Wi-Fi doesn't work, I think that is a ROM's bug.
You can try that.
Well guys, thank you so much for your responses.
I gave it to the Sony guys and they told me that the MB would be changed.
So, I bought a new Xperia SP and now Sola is just a show piece lying about in my house. Anyways, thanks a lot everybody.
My phone was charging and all of a sudden it restarted and got stuck on lockscreen. After 5 seconds it again restarted and again got stuck on lockscreen. I tried factory resetting it, installing new ROM and even flashed MIUI 13 using PE recovery but the problem still persists. I've done factory reset for like 15 times and installed MIUI firmware as well with no luck.
It all happened on its own, I wasn't doing anything to my phone. Please help.
Update: I installed fastboot rom using MI flash tool but the problem still persists.
Is the battery good? It sounds like hardware.

Yes I never encountered any issues with the battery. By the way I've flashed stock rom but still my phone keeps rebooting after showing the welcome screen.

A failed battery be the easy answer; then can fail with no warning and is most likely to happen during the stress of charging. Any swelling is failure! Erratic fast charging is another symptom. If it's capacity has dropped below 80% of its original capacity it's considered degraded and should be replaced. Degraded Li's are more likely to fail.
If the battery can't sink enough current the device won't be able to boot. Although it may sink enough current to open the boot menu which uses far less power.
The next most likely culprit is the mobo if the correct firmware was loaded. However if the battery was weak it may have corrupted the flash. A loose connector or other failed subassembly is also possible.

Could it possibly be fixed by relocking the BL and flashing?

I'm not sure if thats the issue. Was just asking.
By the way my data partition also seems to be corrupted as TWRP is continuously failing to format data and giving error. But PE recovery would readily format the data without any error.

One caveat:
You are using a very old official system to fix.
Latest version of Android 11 = V12.5.5.0.RKGMIXM
Latest version of Android 12 = V13.0.10.0.SKGMIXM
If you can't get a clean install in MiFlash and you're doing everything right, it's a hardware error.

then it must be a hardware error.
Anyways how do I power it off? It's stuck on boot screen and long pressing the power button results in reboot. Is there any fastboot command to do that?
yea must be battery or mobo problem. if it does not bootloop while plugged in a charger then it's a battery problem. also try banging the back case and the hardware keys especially the power button. maybe something is stuck. if something is loose then you need to have it checked.

if u still have access to fastboot then install any custom recovery. it has an option to power it off
Try flashing without Miflash.
Download latest fastboot rom 13.0.10.
Extract fastboot rom files then copy latest fastboot.exe from HERE and paste it inside the folder.
Run flash_all.bat

The "catch checkpoint" is just a Mi Flash thing.
The ROM is flashed successfuly, but the software is checking one last step, which is failing.
You can safely remove the checkpoint thing in the configuration menu : delete the line "Check Point".
With this checkpoint you will get passed only if you flash and lock your phone.

Did you got your issue resolved? Was it a hardware issue?
Hold Volume up and power button . Enter main menu . Reboot from there and it will reboot correctly
