Hi..I had the very same problem that is mentioned in this thread, and it seems like that the phone is dead for good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383875
My only question is, how can I extract my photos & vedios from the internal memory? Of course I understand that this isn't about USB cables and stuff, I know that I'll probably have to dissemble my phone, and I'm willing to do that, I just need to know what to do exactly? Thanks in advance for every body..

I believe there are devices that can read the memory, find a lab that has one compatible with your phone.
Have you tried all tricks, like rubber band?

What kind of lab? sorry my English isn't that good and Google translate didn't help in this one (All I know is that "lab" means laboratory, but I think that this not what you've meant at all).

I've tried every thing but the "rubber band trick". in fact this is the first time I hear about it but anyway I'll search for it in the forums and try it.. if it helps to know the phone doesn't work even in fast boot or flash mode.
Thanks..

Has anyone got a pair of these for the Xperia X10?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Ericss...4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1284836976&sr=1-4
Headphone wire is starting to drive me mad especially when I am on my 125.
Any reviews? other than Amazons
Thanks in advance

I have them, in fact I imagine there are several people who do. For me they came free as a promotional offer on Rogers here in Canada, and I read that some people got them bundled along with the phone.
They work pretty well, although I've never seen the song-ticker ever working on any device I've connected to it (although I don't even think it's actually a feature), I always have gotten good quality audio from my x10, my windows 7 pc at home, and my iMac at work. It lasts a long time and it's easy to switch between the devices. The only issue I have with it, and it can be pretty annoying, is that it will sometimes lose connection with my x10 and I will have to unpair it and repair it or otherwise restart bluetooth on the phone. It could be an issue with interfering wifi signals or something else on the phone.
I take it you missed THIS thread on the same page.

No I did not miss that thread.
1) The thread was asking a different question to mine.

It's full of peoples experience with them, which is what you've also asked.
Hello guys, I know it could sound really weird for you all, but here's my point: I just bought an Xperia Mini on eBay from a user claiming he had received it directly from Sony Ericsson as a free sample. I received it yesterday, it was unpacked and was sold together with the battery charger only. Nothing too strange.
By the way, after about half an hour I realized the phone had a front camera.
Ok, I watched the video and i know I'm a noob on XDA. But I'm no stupid
So don't tell me it's the light/proximity sensor! I wouldn't be here! It's a working front camera, since I can switch between this one and the "normal" one and take pictures. Here is a picture of the phone:
EDIT
Looks like I can't post links, so I'll just skip this step
Anyway, the other strange thing is that the phone comes with Android 2.3.3, build 4.0.A.2.368, and I can't update it. Not directly from the phone, nor using PC Companion. It just keeps saying the software is up to date.
So... have you ever heard of something like this? What should I do?
What is the phone model in the settings?
Model ST15i
I wrote to the seller, and he just answered me: he says that, working for a company that create applications for iOS and Android, they usually get five samples for each model. This is one of those. It could be, as I thought, a sort of "prototype". The thing is: I am grateful for the front camera, but I'd like to be able to get software updates, and this seems impossible. And also, I suppose that updating through "unofficial" ways would take to the impossibility of using the front camera.
i'm thinking of sending it back and buying a new one
I'm really envious right now...
really curious now.. Try adding photo's with the attachments feature !
where are you from?
can you share the link where you buy?
sorry for my bad english
Here's the picture of the phone... I wouldn't be envious at all, anyway. I have a couple of days to understand if I can update the phone, if updating causes the impossibility of using the front camera, and if - even worse - it can cause hardware incompatibilities, crashes, explosions or else. Then I have to decide if I want to send it back or not.
D'oh.
That's pretty cool... But it absolutely sucks that you can't update the firmware..
Maybe you can contact Sony and ask if there is any way to update..

I doubt it... it looks like this is a "test" version that was long ago abandoned by developers... anyway, I'd rather buy a new phone. It's easier xD

I'm italian and I bought it from a private seller, so I have a UNIQUE piece... wow, sooooo cool... lol

Do you want to buy it for 135 €? That's what I spent to get it...
If I was you, I wouldn't contact Sony about it
If it was a test product, don't think they will be happy that an Xperia Mini is roaming around in the wild with a front camera. In my opinion if you really want to update, flash a ROM that is made for the Xperia Mini Pro, then you might be able to use the front camera. There is barely any difference between the XMP and XM then the HW keyboard and the Front camera.
an update is not necessary. you can flash a custom roms

Well... how do I create a backup copy of my firmware? Because I'm not sure it's the same as the "normal" 4.0.A.2.368. By the way, if I flash a new ROM on my device, what happens if I try to restore to the original manifacturer firmware? Does the phone keep it in memory, or does it restore to the new, "clean" firmware?
Sorry for my bad English, I don't know how to explain it better -__-

Install CWM recovery and do a backup maybe it will work if anything goes wrong
This phone is original?
What you could do is flash any Rom you want, that is from a Stock Rom. BUT! Always back up your system so that you can go back to it if something goes wrong.
If you need any help on how to's and stuff like that just tell me and ill help you out.
I'm curious by this system
You can root, install recovery CWM and send me one backup?
at least you can use face unlock after the official ics update
somebody pushed me into a pool with my clothes on a few weeks ago and I had my Samsung gs3 on me
I've tried drying it, took it apart, tried to dry the motherboard separately,... but nothing worked.
I got a new gs3 and the only thing I care about now is to retrive my photos if possible. The water damaged phone won't turn on and it won't connect to a computer. To make sure that the problem is the motherboard not the screen I've switched the motherboards to see if it works or connects to computer but it won't.
Does anybody know how I might be able to retrive my photos?
I think the solution might be to take the phone's internal memory out and maybe install it on a working board and recover photos from there but I dunno if that thought is doable??
Anybody knows of a repair shop that could do that for me?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Yeah ..i saw someone do that once ...in an episode of CSI !!

I will, but the problem is I already took it to a repair shop and they couldn't help me and there are not a lot of pros in this field in the city I'm leaving
I thought maybe somebody could refer me to a pro and I ask them or mail the phone/motherboard to them
Sorry to hear about that, things happen though.
Did some research for you and found this: http://digital-photography-school.com/recover-images-from-a-damaged-sd-card
but I am not entirely sure it will work. If anything, you would take the phone back to Samsung to have the data removed
unless you have lost your warranty.
Good luck anyway.
It's probably possible to recover the data from the integrated ssd drive through complex and very specialized tools aswell as lots of work.
This would involve desoldering the chip from the motherboard and hope it's not defective due to your attempts to use the device.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
In future, open a dropbox account and install dropbox on your phone.
This way, all your photos will upload automaticly to your dropbox account without any manipulation.
Good luck Bro !
thanks for the search
but unfortunately I wan't using sd card before so the pics are on the phone's memory
I do still have the warranty and I called Samsung but they would just repair it and wipe all the data off the phone they won't recover it for me

Hi all i am new to this forum and i am ready to learn from you guys
Ok my problem is verry sirius i have send my galaxy to technical lab 3 time
And steel the same.
My phone is beeping by it self. Not after a call not after nothing
He just beeps when he want no body know where or what is the problem
I am with a huge hope that you guys can help me
Thank you all for help
I think thats technical issue. Idk anybody else xperience this but ur problem kinda strange thing to happen and never happen to my phone.
My guess is some kind of RF interference......had new tv recently and kept getting blocks on screen, turned out it was my boiler relay interfering every time the thermostat triggered on/off......and I'm guessing something is causing induction on your speaker in a similar manner
...
Hmmm mey be you right... So what you sugest me to do?
I am agree that this is verry strenge and i didnt know no body with
The same problem.
Thanks for helping me guys
Well if it only happens while you are in a certain location then that would indicate possibly my suggestion, can you describe the beep? Is it a notification beep or does it doing like interference?...or?
..
This is hapening every where.. Its not a notification beep i have
Never hear beep like that... I am now at work in afew hours ill
Come home ill try to record the beep...
It's not what I suggested then, e recording would be very helpful :thumbup:

I have sent you new links on privet did you get them?
Well it's not a notification sound I recognize, almost sounds like the connection notification when you plug into charge, just wondering if damaged usb port is doing it, but that is just a guess.
Best advice is flash back to stock Rom with full wipe, and before adding your apps see if it's still doing it, if not then add apps a few at a time.
The other thing you could do is run better battery stats and see if that noise links to any wakelocks

Hey guys,
haven't asked here anything for a while, but now i feel like in trouble with companies Italian Olivetti (?) made tablet called Olipad Graphos.
Basically one guy made a factory reset for it and know it's almost dead, basically just can't get past lockscreen. No buttons, no notification bar pullable just nothing. Of course it seems like there is no problem with that, just find firmware, make an upadate and life goes on, but there is PROBLEM - no existence of firmware rom or anything else, so there is question what goes on is there any possibility to make this toy work? There is possibility to get into stock recovery with basic options.. Hope there is any possible solution.
Any help will be really appreciated, thanks!
Anybody got an idea?
up
Have anyone looked at this threat? I'm kinda deadlock

It could be possible if the tablet had Twrp. Your best bet is to ask the manufacturer to send the firmware to you. Maybe this time they will respond
