[Q] X10...dead? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My x10 shut down today after experiencing massive battery drain. When I plugged it into the charger, it didn't restart. I've tried flashing two different kernels, the FeraKernel for GB and DoomKernel. I also tried flasing the evervolv ftf file as a last resort. No change.
Is it dead? Anything I can do?

Flash original firmware with flashtool, also try to charge the battery and check if it isn't broken.

I checked the forums for the ftf file of the original firmware..I haven't found it till now. Anybody have it? Or could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks. But when I flashed that, it wouldn't start up properly. I saw the Sony Ericsson logo for a second or two before the screen turned off again. WHen I tried to turn it on again, the red led flashed three times.
EDIT : after plugging it in, it woke up again. Looks like the X10 really won't die!
P.S you forgot to mention that that was an Eclairs ROM

From what you're indicating it sounds like your battery is dead/not holding a charge.
[a] You probably need a new battery, or charge the existing one for a good 12hrs and then see if it still holds a charge,
If not then go back to [a]
If possible you can just use SEUS (Sony Update Service) or PC Companion to flash the stock GB 2.3 Sony firmware.

Well, I have always used this ROM to repair my Xperia.
The name was 2.1, so You could have seen that it's eclair.
And if You're still having problems with phone shuting down then it's for sure the battery, I had this problem.

[Q] HELP NEEDED X0i, IS SCREWED TRIED EVERYTHING!!

Hi,
This is the first time ive posted a thread from my pc in a long time.
Thats because my phone is just not working!!
I was on Achotjan froyo rom, yesterday my phone started behaving very strangely and i kept getting restarts constantly.
For some stupid reason instead of reinstalling through xrecovery I went straight to flashtool and decided to reinstall stock 2.1 firmware.
Halfway through flashing- my 2 year old nephew came running upto computer by my side and pulled USB cable out of port in middle of flashing.
Now phone wont turn on, the LED blinks green once when pressing power button, then screen looks like its turning on and turns to the black boot up screen. But SONY ERICSSON LOGO never shows up it is just a blank screen for about 30 seconds and then screen turns off and then it just loops-LED flash same over and over again.
Initially i connected to SEUS and that downloaded and installed fine, but when it came to turning phone on- no change same as above. I tried other flashtools, one thread suggested 2.1 global by marylandcookie, still no difference. I THEN TRIED PC COMPANION TO SEE IF THAT DOES ANY DIFFERENT BUT NO!!
I even flashed an old R2AB026 1.6 rom i have using old flashtool, but that just makes phone go into a continuous vibration.
***BATTERY IS OK AND IVE LEFT ON CHARGE FOR AGES,
LIKE I SAID SEUS IS INSTALLING IT OK WITHOUT ANY ERROR, SO WHY WONT IT TURN ON????
GUYS PLEASE I NEED HELP, GINGERBREAD IS OUT SOON AS YOU KNOW, AND NOW I THINK IVE KILLED MY PHONE.
I BOUGHT IT MARCH 2010 AND I CANT EVEN FIND MY RECEIPT NOW SO I CANT SEND IT FOR WARRANTY.
I FEEL LIKE CRYING!!
CAN ANYONE HELP?
try taking your battery out for a minute, then do you have a different usb cable? I did this and had to change mine. now reboot your computer, then use SEUS and find the 'repair' option. hope this works, I did the same. if you have an old Nokia, the cable works

[Q] X10 will not turn on at all

So, sort of long story, i'll cut it short
-Got an old X10, had stock 2.3.3
-Rooted it
-Did not unlock bootloader, got kinda scared.
-Tried to install FeraLab custom ROM, it failed probably because of sdcard permissions; i accidentally wipe /system /data /cache
-stuck at first Sony Ericsson screen
-Somehow managed to flash a 2.1 stock rom with flashtool, after an hour of different combinations of enterring flash mode and pulling the battery
-Tried to install FeraLab again, this time it went through
-After install, rebooted, phone shut down during boot up process
-Will not turn on at all. Even when plugged into a PC, wall, not plugged in, pulling battery, etc.
I think what happened is that FeraLab needed a newer baseband than the 2.1 stock rom had. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this sucker to even turn on? Not a single LED is on when plugged in, giving me the impression that it's not charging.
If the battery has drained out, it might take some time before it kicks in and indicates that it is charging.
If the ROM has failed somehow, it might not show that it is charging at all, but might be charging.
Either way: Let it charge "blindly" for a while, and see what happens.
Once it does boot up to some level or shows life-signs, let it charge fully before you'l attempt a ROM flash.
The flash/recovery mode needs a full battery, and reason is that the external power isn't used even when connected while in flash/recovery mode.
If you happen to be in bad luck, and the ROM failed as a result of a drained battery, you might have to charge the battery externally. Use an external battery charger made for 3.6 volts Lithium Polymer batteries, and make sure to align the + and - terminals properly.
I can recommend the multicharger from Powerbase, called C-734U:
http://www.powerbasehk.com/product.php?id=148
Using it myself to charge the X10 battery, as well as other batteries from other devices I have.
EDIT:
(For some reason, powerbase has taken back that it'll charge Lipo batteries, but when I bought mine, it was described as a li-ion, li-poly and Ni-MH charger, and it't ability to charge li-poly batteries was the very one reason to why I bought it.
I suspect PowerBase does not want to take responsibility if anything happens to the li-poly-batteries, as they are known to be more dangerous than other types.)
I've left it on the wall charger all night, no response or anything. Luckily, I bought a new battery a few days ago, so when that comes in, hopefully it will be charged enough for this thing to boot.

Yeah, i'm not sure what he expected. But, good news! Now for some reason my phone started blinking red whenever I tried to turn it on! I guess the battery completely ran out or something. It also blinks every now and then when plugged in, so I guess it's charging. The previous owner of this phone said that it had some battery problems, so that's why I ordered that new battery. I'll let it charge for awhile and let you guys know what happens.
Okay, after getting my new battery, the phone will still not turn on. I think i've figured out two behaviors:
1. If the battery is nearly completely out of charge, it will flash a red light
2. If the battery has charge, it will not do anything at all.
Anyone know how to fix this?
While trying to turn on the phone, after long-press power button, do you get a flash from status led & short vibration?

No vibration, the red LED flashes three times, and that is , as I said before, what happens when the battery seems to not have any charge. If I have a charged battery it does absolutely nothing.
Have you removed sim & sd card and tried. I know it sounds dumb but when I flashed a bad kernel I had to try to connect flash mode like 10 times. Finally I left the phone unplugged from pc, started flashtool and started flashing. I only put battery in phone just before holding back key. I never connected USB until tool said to dis-connect phone and connect in flashmode.
i wish you luck, I know how I felt when it went wrong

Try to flash any latest kernel via flashtool . Go for doomkernel . I think its software issue . Try this first .
Almost same here please help..
Last night battery ran out of charge & phone switched off.. then i plugged the charger it doesn't charge.. after some time i tried turning on.. Vibrates with the green LED but nothing happens then..
Note: This is not the 1st time i'm letting my phone drain, but facing this problem for the 1st time..
Rom : Spikelabs GB Gaming rom
Kernel : Ferakernel v23 beta6
I tried another battery, charger, data cable.. Tried flashing stock & spikelabs kernel., but of no use..
Any help is greatly appreciated..
Thanks in advance.. :good:
Something like that happened to me not long ago!
I was trying to flash some ROMs and I messed up then my phone wouldn't turn on!
But Miracously, I could flash a Stock 2.3.3 which fixed the problem!
At first, I used Sony PC Companion, which helped a lot- and after I screwed it for the second time, I used FlashTool-
I don't know if this was helpful, but I hope your x10 will be fixed soon!
yeah try the PC Companion first, it helped me too a couple of weeks ago
No luck...
Hi friends..
Tried to repair using PC companion, but was able to connect only in flash mode, unable to proceed software update..
I previously tried flashing stock GB using flashtool thrice. Still couldn't switch on the phone.. What else may i try..
Thanks friends..

Xperia Mini Pro (sk17i) Bricked?

Hi there. First of all, sorry about my english, but i'm spanish
I was reading a lot, and i cant find a solution to my phone. It sudently becomes a brick just when charging (with anothers phone charger) and the battery was lower than 10%
It doesn't work, and don't response to any of all solutions i've read (Take out SIM, SD card, remove battery and wait... ) no way... Screen never come back to iluminate again. Just, when pushing power buttom, the phone's vibrates.
So tired of the brick, i've arrived at this page. And I read this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792
And try to become my phone back...
At least, the phone enter in flashmode, and i can flash with flashtools... but the phone never come back... just the brick
I tryed to flash with the Xperia_2011_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file and OK
Afther that, take out the USB and flash again with one ROM i get from here:
Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i)
4.0.2.A.0.42 - http://www.mediafire.com/?hevz3x5w9pqt24q
4.1.B.0.431 - http://www.mediafire.com/?j0bdx06zz5skvzt
But the phone never works. One time afther flashing with 4.0.2.A.0.42 i noticed, that trying to power on the phone, the red led shyne 3 times, and thats supposed to be the battery. But i don't know if the battery now is charged. I've left it hours charging, and hours too to the USB...
Supposedly, i cant flash without battery in the phone, but flashtools finish correctly
So... any idea?
There is something i can do?
Thank all of you who read this!
Its probably battery empty. recharge battery or get a friends and try

First make sure that your battery is really fine. Try another one.
If that fails, see if you can get your device into flash mode?(Switched off+Vol Down + USB cable)
If yes, try flashing a custom ROM. For example, download CyanogenMod from here, use Flashtool (guide) to flash the kernel provided in the downloaded ROM's ZIP file. Then, boot again into Clockword Mod Recovery(Keep pressing Vol DOwn button while boot or google for how to enter recovery for your phone). Copy the downloaded Cyanogenmod ZIP to SD card and install it via ClockwordMod recovery.
See if the above works.

Just try another battery.. It should work

You said LED blinks 3 times so if the color of LED is RED then it indicates empty battery..
Hey, my problem wasnt the same as yours, but it helped for me when i got only service logo on screen.
On this link you find a "Play_v1.01_TA brick fix UPDATE" zip.
Download, unpack and flash it.

[Q] X10 mini restarts continuosly when plugged in wall/USB

Morning everyone
i have tried to search the forums with a similar problem, but i couldnt find a solution to this.
NOTE; If there is, please provide a link to the post, i'll appreciate that.
So this is what happened :
i flashed the phone with custom rom ( MiniCM9/JB/ICS) successfully..but after finding that the camera didnt work with one of the roms ICS i think, i reverted back to the original e10i kernel.
the problem with this is that PC Companion couldnt update my phone, as it didnt recognise it, it only said SONY/SONY ERICSSON phone..apart from that, the battery seems to have died out, i tried charging it on the wall plug but it would boot up and display the SONY ERICSSON logo and after a few seconds, restart. it doesnt seem to charge the phone but rather gives it a 'boost' to boot up. it does the same thing when plugged in the laptop. Now, the baterry seems to have been depleted completely as the red led flashes while still connected in flash mode.
I expected a big battery icon to display when i charged it on the wall plug but i got the boot logo...and restarts..SEUS said i have the latest software..PC companion couldnt ''repair'' it because the battery would run out while still connected in flashmode.
Please assist me in anyway.
thanks
AGAIN : if there is a problem somewhere in the forums PLEASE direct me to it, i dont wanna cause any spam on the forums.
Thank you

Yes, your bootloader will remain unlocked, so you will be able to flash custom kernels and roms, no problem.
They are working on a fix for the camera, and the first one updated will be MiniCM9 i think, but for now MiniCM7 (or other gingerbread based roms) remains the best performing option for our phones.

Smg, i tell you, Yesterday was not my xperias day. My data bundles depleted while it had gone 80% (i think) into the download, i then recharged for another 100MB unfortunately i was using my ageing 6730c on Opera mini n the download couldnt resume! So i'd like to know, how big is the file itself because when it started, it said 114MB it reached that size and kept on going till 188MB i guess that's how much bundles i had. Anyway will try to get a wifi hotspot.
I think i'll go with the MiniCM7 for now till further development is made for these ROMS. A very big up to the developers.
Till i get that file! Later

Yes, sorry about that.. it's the original SE stock 2.1 firmware and it comes in at about 210mb, although the site keeps saying differently, i don't know why it does that. You need to flash it with flashtool.
success
hey bro....guess what..it worked. I ended up downloading the file via a blackberry lol anyway it was 210MB...215 in fact..anyway my phone is fixed and ready for customisation. A very big Thank u man. I'm just waiting for it to fully charge because it was completely drained i was lucky it survived the original stock flashing.
Thanks for the time and energy you put in. I really appreciate it. Cant wait to get my Samsung Galaxy Gio lol i know its a bit old now but it hasn't seen the 'other side' of the grass.

[Q] Xperia Mini x10 Bootloop

Hello
I got this phone some years ago, then i gave it to my mother she said one day it got out of battery then after many hours trying to charge it did not charge.
I tried to charge the phone, i get some flashing red light then it tries to boot
shows the sony logo then it goes black and does it again about 5 more times then it just go off.
I flashed the stock rom using sony software it was successful but it still does the same.
The phone is not rooted / not bootloader unlocked.
After one day charging still does the same. I am able to get green light to flash but i am not able to recover it.
Any ideas? i was thinking maybe if there is a gingerbread ftf rom i could fix it, but everything here is zipped and there is not ftf rom no custom
....thanks

Just force reboot your phone with Square button+Power button and reflash with SEUS or Flashtool. It worked for me. Try it. I don't think that there is a GB.ftf file, only the stock 2.1 one. Press thanks if I helped you in some way.
