r-e-a-l-l-y ?? this is just as easy as strap ur socks on .... in case u will have to do it another time i write here the steps:
0.5: DON'T CONNECT PHONE NOW!
1. dl & install flashtool (install it in ''C://'' / maindrive not in other folders!) go to the drivers folder (of flashtool install) & install the drivers you need for your phone.
2. download & place a .ftf file (latest avaiable STOCk ROM file) in the ''firmaware'' folder of flashtool install.
3. open flashtool (not the ''flashtool64'' ); click on flash (icon); select flashmode. select the wanted FW (software to install) leave all untouched ; ONLY tick in ''EXCLUDE'' on ''TA''
4. start flash, flashtoll will tell you to connect the phone. connect the (powered off) phone WHILE HOLDING volume down (may differs on phone model, use google then). grenn light will lit, flashtool will start doing the job. after all finish, disconnect phone & DONE.
NOTE: you need to install the android SDK (more important the google USB drivers, which will install by default) if your phone dont get recognized by pc/ flashtool

Okay guys.
Here is new X10flash for Firmware 2.1 Version (old 1.6 Firmware can not be flashed with this at the moment).
Windows 7/Vista Users should diasable UAC!!
Download Flasher: (Update 14.11.2010) GUI VERSION!!!

You will see that there is a new Folder "firmware" the firmware files must be inside this folder!

You have to wipe your USERDATA !! This is important, otherwise you will enter Bootloops etc.
Also be sure SEUS is NOT running! (But at least it should have detected your phone once)
THIS FIRMWARE IS ONLY FOR X10 NOT FOR MINI (PRO) or X8 !
But the flashtool should be capable of flashing all Xperia Series now!
If someone decrypts the Rom you can try it

If you have more ROMS, just drop me a PN and i will add them to this post!

It's probably stated somewhere in the original thread, but see THIS for UAC and the flashtool for data.

Are you doing that before running the flashtool? If not do so, by running seus just past the point of putting it in to flash mode, then try again.

Have you tried starting windows in safe mode? I read somewhere in here that starting Windows in Safe mode will allow you to install the drivers without any problem.

[FIXED] x10i stuck at "sony ericsson" logo

First: the phone was rooted long ago succesfully - thats not the problem
i think i kinda f***** it up by trying to install feralab v14 custom rom over cyanogen 7 without performing cleaning, backup, putting a new kernel or firmware(dont know if i even need to do it). I've searched the forums far and wide, found nothing but dead links.
flashtool doesnt recognize the device(green light is on when i hold back and connect), s1tool doesnt recognize it... i cant enter bootloader i cant basically do anything with it.. can someone please help me?
Hi,
Are u on locked bootloader or unlocked one ?
Do u run Flashtool with admin rights if u use windows ?
Do u have the latest version of Flashtool ?
Do u have all the drivers installed for your device ?
Do u try PCC to go back to Stock Rom ?
a reply?

First let's try with PC Companion (PCC) .. use the link in my signature "How to use PC Companion"...
To have it google is your friend it's the official app from Sony Ericsson
..
i already have pcc i will now take a look at the manual

Once you're on StockRom, use flashtool to root...
If you are on 2.1 stock rom use flashtool to install a 2.3 stock rom, once you did it unlock your bootloader and install a kernel with his wifi module... Then you're ready to install FeraLab v14 or another rom...

my phone was already rooted, do i need to root it again?
II may need some directions about unlocking bootloader and installing kernel and stuff..
and is xrecovery erased by this?
edit : Xperia X10 was updated with 3.0.1.G.0.75.
So now you are on 2.3.3...
You have to root again your phone...
Use the last version of flashtool...
And the guide by Crowds (It's in my signature "How to use Flashtool by Crowds")...
All is explained for all the stuff... Installation of Flashtool, the drivers needed, the rooting process, the unlocked bootloader process...
Once all is done, install a kernel (It's a .tft file) with flashtool (DooMKerneL, Thgo kernel, KCkernel... )
Don't forget it's wifi module (it's a zip file to copy on sdcard and install via recovery)...
Then, copy the rom you want on sd card and install it via recovery

Buy download mode do you mean flash mode? Flashmode = phone off & unplugged, then while holding the back button plug in usb to pc. Should only get green led, no screen.

Yes there is a way, but you would have to unlock your bootloader and flash a custom kernel. After that install it in cwm
For the firmware links maybe this could help you :good:

You will loose all data on phone!
Okay here you go:
1. Unlock your bootloader. How yo do this is in my guide, but remember it will void your warranty
2. Install Flashtool and all the drivers from the flashtool installation folder for all devices and modes.
3. Download FXP cm10 (Android 4.1.2 - mostly working) or cm10.1 Alpha (4.2.1 - many things not working, for more details see the thread by shufuking) and copy the rom zip to the sdcard of your phone.
Download the Google apps (gapps) for jelly bean 4.1 or 4.2 (depending on which rom you choose) and copy it to sdcard too.
4. Extract the zip on your PC, copy the boot.img to a folder named "kernels" (that you have to create in the Flashtool folder).
Launch Flashtool, click on the flash -> fastboot mode.
5. Click "reboot into fastboot mode" or shut down the phone, wait 10 seconds, hold volume up and while holding volume up connect the usb to pc. Now the blue led lights up
6. "Select kernel to flash" and select the boot.img in kernels folder.
7. Wait until the image is flashed, now unplug you phone.
8. Power on phone and while it's powering on press volume down again and again to get in clockworkmod recovery (cwm)
9. Select wipe data/factory reset (you navigate with the volume keys and select with the home button) and wipe cache.
10. Go to advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
11. Install zip from sdcard -> choose zip -> choose the rom zip and install it
12. Install zip from sdcard -> choose the gapps
13. Now reboot the phone and enjoy
That's it, for any other questions just ask :good:
Thanks Worked Perfectly
+1 boy Thanks For The Thread

Don't really matters, the img is flashed with ROM anyway, problem you installed ROM for different phone.
Turn the phone off and flash stock with flashtool, then start over, with ROM for your phone this time.

Okay, flash mode and fastboot mode drivers installed I assume.
Download stco rom FTF, put it in flashtool firmware directory, start flash in flash mode, choose the file you have dowanloaded, wait till flashtool ask you to connect in flash mode, turn the phone off (press power + volume up untill you feel (1+) 3 vibrations,) connect the USB cable while holding volume down key.

Yest that flashtool.
There only stock rom FTFs no others, you will have to search your phone android development forum for one.
Open flash tool, turn off your phone, connect to the PC while pressing volume down key, flashtool should display "device connected in flash mode", and it should stay connected for about 45 seconds if no flash is being made.

Just try if you can get flash mode to work without flashing anything as I explained. This is the key for recovery.
You can also create your own FTF.
Start update with PC Companion until it asks you tp connect in flash mode, then quit and build the FTF with flashtool.
