Hi,
I've a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro and I have a problem with the boot of the phone.
I've turned On the Bluetooth on my phone and since then my phone started restarting and loops continuously.
Tried connecting my phone to PC to run a recovery but the PC companion doesn't detect my phone as it is set to Mass Storage Detection.
It turns on few 3-4 seconds sometimes but instantly loops again.
Is there anything I can do to turn off the Bluetooth or to turn on my phone successfully.
I've tried the below steps:
1: Holding the Volume (-) button tried turning on the phone. Hard reset.
2: Tried turning on in the recovery mode which didn't help.
3: Tried connecting the phone to pc by holding the volume down button and also tried volume up button which didn't help either.
Awaiting for a response to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hello familshaik,
I had the similar problem with my phone, it was stuck on boot loop after turning on bluetooth and PC companion wasn't detecting the phone.
I think it is some bug with 4.1.B.0.587
It was fixed by using Sony Update Service (SUS).
http://www.sonymobile.com/in/tools/update-service/
Download it and follow the instructions, it will download and install a fresh ICS on your device.
After the installation use this:

Hope it will help.
Thank you for the reply..
I tried a hard reset a few more times and tried turned off the Bluetooth through which I'm able to access my phone now.
I'll try rooting my phone so this problem doesn't persists.

hi can someone please help i tried to flash my xperia x10 mini and failed badly and now when i turn on my phone the logo screen comes up and then just stays on... ive left it for about 20 minutes but still nothing its like its bricked on the logo screen i can restart it but it just does the same again. Ive also tried taking the battery out putting it back in then using the update service to lock it in flash mode while i use binarys flash kit but that doesnt work either. Also the update service just says no software update is available it thinks i already have the latest one please help i will be truely greatful x
Edit :
Ive already tried SEUS, PC Companion, Binary's Flash Kit.
Ive already tried connecting it to the adb but cant get adb to recognise a connected device and all the drivers are installed.
i guess you have, but i've to ask, have you tried the repair option in SEUS/PC Companion?
yeh i have seus says i already have the latest software version installed and pc companion actually wants me to load my phone up to connect it :/ any ideas? x
me too!!
i had the same problem with you...
how to get shutdown this phone?
phone must be shutdown when i want to flashing from SEUS..
and i don't know how to shutdown this phone because the battery....
edit : just connect your phone and use restart (hold power button & middle button)
after reboot, press back button and you will connect with SEUS...
but, my phone already get latest update...and i can't flashing from SEUS...
sob..
ive been shutting down the phone by taking the back off and unscrewing the inside cover. Then you will see the battery cable where you can simply unplug it from the motherboard and then reinsert it.
Edit: I also have connected to SEUS but it says i already have the latest software
Ive taken it to a local phone repairs shop ive given up... they said it'll be fresh and working by tomorrow morning it cost me £20 but its just one of those things en it :/
hey guys
all you need is to follow the instructions on SEUS,
when it tells you that you have the latest software press repair.
and when it say that you should turn off your phone and then reconnect it while pressing the back buttom do the following:
1- connenct the phone to the computer
2- press the 3 buttoms (power + mid buttom + back buttom) then as your phone restarts and vibrate remove your fingers from the power and mid buttoms but maintain pressing on the vack buttom
i hope this will help
I had CM 7.2 on it. I wanted to go stock, but flashtool didn't work.. So I extracted the FTF file (SK17i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1251-0103)) and using ADB I flashed kernel.sin and system.sin.
Phone started normally. I didn't wipe any data or cache.
Then I installed KRsH Kernel v3.0 and the wlan_modules.
Then (don't know why) I wiped Dalvik cache..
After a while using, the phone asked for software update. I installed it and phone didn't boot. I wait about 10 mins, and took the battery out.. (USB unplugged)
Put it back in and the phone did nothing when trying to turn it on.
I tried updating with SEUS but it said, "the phone contains modified software that cannot be updated."
I tried flashtool again, and it worked! But after installing, reboot, and keep saying "Device connected in flash mode. Device disconnected. And keeps repeating this.)
I unplugged the USB and when I tried to turn it on, the green light flashed once. If I hold the power button it keeps flashing in interval of 1 sec.
*The light is not as bright as when I plugged the USB cable*
If i plug the USB now the LED turns bright green and I hear the USB connected sound on my PC(win7 64 btw).
Anyting I can do to fix my phone?
Thanks!
P.S. I'm sorry I had to bump an old thread and now start a new one... I just want to fix it
P.S.S. If I hold the power button+volume up (USB unplugged) the phone vibrates.
If I hold them like that I get random intervals of vibrations and the vibrations can be short and long.
SOLVED!

For everybody having this problem, flash the relock bootloader with flashtool.
Power on the phone normally, you should feel vibration and the phone will boot normally in the last firmware you had.
please help
problem solved
drivers need to be installed

Hi guys. I'm sorta new to xperia devices so all of your suggestions may be able to help me. I am stuck in a bootloop, after the xperia boot animation appears the phone restarts. Even trying to get to recovery mode, it restarts, I tried to connect it to flash tool by holding down volume up before connecting but even that methof doesn't work. The phone still reboots. It's xperia sola btw.

Before connecting to flashtool you must turn it off, hold down volume up + power kays until you feel (1+) 3 vibrations.
You may also want to try to repair with PC Companion instead using flashtool.
I also did try that. "Holding down power and volume up" but before it could be detected by the pc, it reboots

Hello,
My phone wouldn't connect to the wifi so I restarted it. it started to loop the intro (Sony logo).
I downloaded xperia companion and started the software repair and went to sleep. Four hours later the companion Froze and the phone's screen is still off. I removed the cable and tried to start the phone but it kept looping the logo but this time it is written in black and background is white.
I tried to start the companion again but it does not proceed to the next step when I hold down the volume down button.
I tried Flashtool and downloaded the 6.0.1 firmware from xperiafirmware.com but with the same result. the flash tool would not proceed after I hold the volume down button.
How can I start my phone again?
Thank you.

You must select full wipe in FlashTool, if not work, try flash firmware with Emma Flash Tool from Sony
Okay so my phone can't be turned on , when i try to turn it on it gets stuck to sony logo. Now i tried everything i could find on net i tried holding buttons until vibrates three times , i tried yellow off button , i tried turning him off and not touching him for a day and then charging for a day and again nothing new. When i connect it to pc via usb it gives a sound and pc see a new device but it stays as unknown i tried sonny companion and it doesn't work for it. I used flashtool and when i have turned flashtool and plug it with holding volume button up it recognize it , but when i try to flash it nothing happens. Basically while it recognize phone without trying to flash when i try to flash nothing happens , holding volume up gives a blue light , volume down a green but with volume down nothing happens at all pc doesnt react to it that way at all. I am probably rumbling but thats cause i don't really have experience regarding this sort of stuff , phone is out of warranty it was my sisters phone she switched to new one and i took this to see what can i do with it but as i said its stuck at that sony logo. I should probably add that is heating up about a finger or two down from camera position, somewhere half way between where camera is and sony logo on the back. Is there anything i can do or is it bricked for good ? As i said before i can't turn it on to give permissions to flash is there a way around that ?
