well hello people, so im tring not to freak out. So this is my case : Today i received me new digitizer for the wt19i i put it and i had to go back to the original rom to work , cause it does not work with cooked roms. Anyways i was good until a notification came telling me that there was a new update for my phone , So i accepted downloaded it and clicked on the install, There my phone powered off and for like 3 min there was just black , Nothing on the screen. so i removed the battery , put it back . And now the phone wont turn on. So please tell me people, after 30 days waiting for my digitizer and when i was happy . why did my phone died , and is there a solution ?? i was on WT19i_4.1.B.0.587_Generic
EDIT: I dont know how but after like 30 or 45 min, i tried one last time , removed the battery waited 10 seconds put it back hold down , and voila , my LWW is on flashmode again.
EDIT: it seems like it only goes to flashmode not fastboot. and after flashing a stock firmware still doesnt work... Some ideas?
EDIT3: ok now it solved , i used the unbrick tutorial from FXP it seems that the xperia 2011 devices whit unlocked bootloader doesnt work after ota updates

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my x10 mini pro. There are some similar posts here but nobody exactly describe what is happening to me. So my problem:
One day i have been in subway, phone working properly everything fine. THan suddenly 3G icon has disappear and wouldnt go back. So i decided to restart the device. But since i turned it off, i cannot turn it back on again...
I have tried to take out the simcard, take out mempory card, multiple time reflash by SEUS but still cannot turn it on.
I cna charge the phone with no problem, i can flash it with no problem, but i cannot use it at all.
When i press power button, phone shortly vibrate as he is turning on, than display get a bit brighter (not white, just lights up its easy to notice from profile). and than after few seconds get black again. And like this it continue until it drains battery, only without vibrating. every cca 5 seconds display light up and than get black again. So i guess its rebooting all the time. I have tried all tricks like pressing power+home button, still nothing.
I think i just need really wipe out the whole phone and flash it again. Is it possible somehow? I feel like reflashing by SEUS is not real hardcore flash, is there anything stronger i can try?
I am willing to try anything if anybody has an idea, since its not working anyway so i dont care what i try.
Thanks for advices !
try binary's flash tool, it helps every out. use it in the same way you would SEUS

I try this already... Still the same
Try to flash 1.6 back.
I had the same problem, didnt ever find a way to fix it so had it replaced under warrenty. may be your only way on this problem im afraid.
I tried 1.6 - didnt work
Problem is that i have no warranty.... I just gave it to my friend who is going to singapore, she knows some official SE shop, so maybe i will get it fixed, but im not sure if it wont be for the same money as new phone...
Well the phone is under a year old so it will be covererd under se warranty unless they think you broke there warranty in any way. I would flash it back to your original FW before having it looked at and wipe your sd card.
I bought it in chinese market (Its not a copy) without any receipt or anything, I dont think so they will took it as a warranty. I have done all of this. Flashed to my original FW, wiped everything, nothing works...
did u try SEUS ?
is your phone getting detected via SEUS in flash mode ? what happens when :
1. Take off the battery for 30 secs
2. connect the phone to usb
3. Power on the phone with back button pressed.
if SEUS detects u should be able to flash it. The flash tool also should be working.
Help me ppl ! I screwed up big time !!
I originally got X10 mini with Android 2.1 and relatively old firmware ...anyway I rooted my phone, took the backup and then Flashed a CWM Recovery on it !
Factory WIPED all the data for the new ROM ......
Then I was about to Flash this CM 7.1 ROM when all of a sudden it displayed the message that it wont work wihout the Latest Firmware .... so from there on I had no choice but to Restore my Backup and go back to a working OS, so I could easily proceed with Firmware update ...... but that never happened !!!
The Backup couldnt be recovered ...it failed for i dont know what reason ....ever since then the device never worked beyond the WHITE Sony Ericsson LOGO !!! Im stucked ..... even the CWM Recovery isnt working now !!
and when phone is charged I have no way to turn it off !! I try that HOME+POWER button Combo but it turns back on !! I have no way of stopping this battery drainage either !!
SEUS wont work for me beyond the point where I have to hold the BACK KEY and then connect USB !!
I'm stucked !! I've been looking for a solution for almost 5 days now .... but had no luck !!! dont know what to do from here on!! KINDLY HELP !! plzz plzz plzzz !! I desperately need to fix this !! the device even aint mine !!!
Ok, lets start from the beggining.
What rom did you flash?
Why did you not check the firmware version if it matched the required?
To fix it, let the fone discharge. Then plug the charger in, let it charge a while, and flash via SEUS.
SEUS wont work for you because the phone is on a constant boot loop, so it is never off, which is required to be able to enter the back key function.
try it and let me know.
we've tried few things but nothing helped yet:

devilzeye, please don't open a new thread for the same issue. instead, you can keep the other thread alive.
PC Companion is OK, but not great for these situations. Download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) because it has a much better method for fixing a phone in a messed up position.

Step 1: Relax and Breathe
As DamDSx said. Let it discharge fully. Then Charge it (I Pity mini users cause u cant just yank the battery out!)
In the meantime install Flashtool from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10738287&postcount=1 on your PC. (only install 0.2.8 or 0.2.91 Latest version may not recognise anything but daddy x10)
Follow Process from Here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507 ) and download a ROM for Mini(E20i) Follow the procedure and flash ur stock ROM.
Then Root the phone. Install Root explorer (google it) and go to \system directory. Edit a file called "Build.prop" and change the product code (something like 1238-90XX) wherever you find it in the file and replace it with the correct one for ur phone (Can be found on ur phone's Box)
Run PC companion and check for updates. you'll have the latest stock 2.1 fiirmware. You're good to go!
Next time mess around with only your own device mate
Last -1 step : When you pray to god next, thank him for creating XDA too
Last step: If you find this useful, hit thanks and THANK THE ORIGINAL POSTS TOO (Links posted above)

No they are separate software...entirely different programs...PC Companion to me looks a little useful, but SEUS is way better at fixing your phone when in trouble...
Lift the back cover off.
There is a small rubber plugg, lift that or pry it off.
Beneath that you have the batteryconnector.
Push down on the side wher you see the connecting cables and presto!
Phone off.
So, I unlocked my bootloader a few weeks back and yesterday I decided to lock it back. I did it with s1tool and after the procedure I was unable to go into flashmode for about 15 minutes. Anyway, I managed to flash a stock 2.3 and everything was normal (the white Sony Ericsson logo showed up, so everything must be ok with the kernel, right ?) until i got to the home screen. I entered my PIN, it unlocked and.. that was it. It stayed the way, showed in the picture below. So, holding the menu button shows the keyboard, sound is working, accelometer too and holding the camera button turns the camera on. The notification bar is also working. It almost looks like, as if there is no launcher ... I tried flashing different 2.3 and even 2.1 but it's the same everytime. I hope that someone has and idea how to fix this..
Update: It works fine without a SIM card... WTF ?
PS Sorry if there is such a thread already, I tried searching, but didn't find anything similar.
After A LOT of flashing, reflashing and hitting both my laptop and x10 I managed to unlock the bootloader and voila - it's working perfectly now ! If the mods think the thread is useless now they're free to delete it
Hi there,
this is my 1st post so i hope to be a lucky one...
I installed minicm7 on my phone and everything was ok untill the 1st reboot.
Phone asked me for " Sim unlock network code " or something like that
so i restored my backup and started to use utilities
to unlock bootloader and other staff...
I was so " busy " that i didnt notice that my battery is out of battery
and my phone powered off in the middle of the process.
I cant turn it on now, i cant charge it, pc dont recognise it ( pc companion to ) and power button + menu, or back button etc dont work...
I charged my battery in a phone store, hoping that i could do something
but my phone is dead... it dosent response and i m afraid tha i damaged it.
Any idea / advice ?
ps. Sorry for my english, i hope that i made myself clear enough
ps2. I read similar threads but they didnt helped me at all
I havent managed to turn it on yet...
Any help plz ?
ps. If i send it at sony-ericcson store
will they charge me or warranty applies ?
If your phone doesn't even go into flash-mode there's not much you can do yourself
And I think they will notice you messed with it (rooted, unlocking bootloader), so they will charge you, I suppose
Isnt there anything at all tha i could do
before i send it for service ?
If you can't get it into flashmode, no, nothing at all
ok, thanx
i ll send it when i ll get paid...
unfortunatelly i ll have to wait for 1 more week
Good luck
If the reboot not work, just try it again and again.
if it still doesnt work, just try to flash it again.
I believe, normally the Android will not dead.
Do u try instal SEUS and restore orginal android
Hi, ok so about a month ago i let the phone discharge completly i was on wolf's rom,and when i got home i put it on charge let it like 10 - 15 minutes and then try to turn it on,but all i got was a vibration and a green light flashing once,and then got a new phone arc s and today i kinda miss my x10 xD so i took the battery out and give it 2..3 minutes to rest and then try again ....nothing(i let it another 1:30 minutes to charge ), afterthat i flashed 2.1 official with flashtool clean no mod's the flashtool didnt give me any error but when i try to start ..the phone did the same thing 1 vibrate and green light once blink and now when i put it on charge the phone has the green light on like 5 minute then it turns off,if i take the battery out and put it on charge the green light apears...i tried another battery and the phone has the same problem.. so i came here if anyone know what is wrong with him (i installed SEUS > press repair > said my phone has the latest software,and pc companion the same) (sorry for my english)

Since you solved your problem you should update your post from 'x10 doesn't power on' to something like 'SOLVED: X10 doesn't power on '
I also had same no power green light, had to use older flashtool and flash stock generic 2.1. It took 2-3 times for flash to take
from XDA app on my X10S v8.3 on DooMKernel6 @ 1152Mhz
