Hey guys ... =S ... i've bricked my phone while trying 2 install an update.zip file .. from the xrecovery mod and now all that it does . is keep restarting =| dunno what 2 do ..
please help !
nvm
Im gonna stop pretending I know anything about these phones until i actually do.
Many of us have been here. I had it REAAAAAAAALY bad one time.
Leave phone DISconnected from computer
Leave on finger on the BACK button.
Now Hold POWER button and MENU (center) buttons together for 3 seconds
With finger still on BACK, connect to computer with SEUS open
Click repair phone/reinstall, continue, continue,
It should start downloading firmware, and says release BACK button
If this doesn't work first time, try again and again until you do it right - it will work.

Snap.. Xrecovery resides in System.. so I guess formatting it would have wiped that too.. (in the original X-recovery threads they warn not to do that on the X10 version of xrecovery) A couple of ways to fix it tho using Bin4ry's Flashtool or with SEUS (I would go for Flashtool) no biggie.. the little mini's and Pro's are highly resilliant little critters, I have stuffed mine up so many times.. boot loops etc, never anything flashtool can't fix.
Good luck!

Did you let the battery in the phone drain down to empty? if you did you may need to leave it plugged into the charger for a few hours to get some juice in it..
you need to have the phone drivers on the computer too (have you connected it with PC companion or SEUS before now? if so then you will already have the drivers installed, lucky you
Also check you have the right files in the firmware folder (are you using the .sin files or the .ftf file? I always use the .sin files and never have problems)
When the flashtool asks you to connect the phone..
With the phone NOT connected to USB reboot the phone (if its a mini and you can't remove the battery) hold down the power and center button for 3-4sec.. (thats like pulling the battery)
When the phone is OFF (or between reboots) Hold down the back button as you plug the phone into USB. (that should start it in flash mode)
And keep trying, I have heard some people have tried about 5-10 times before they got it flashed.. (I always get it first try but then perhaps I am just lucky)
I hope you can follow that .. and good luck.

Hi, today i unlocked my phone's bootloader. After that my phone updated itself with the official sony firmware and now my phone wont turn on... i even dont see the red light or whatever...
Can it be fixed? Thanks for the help
I'm a N00B
Ya it still can be fixed.
Just download the firmware ftf file and flash using flash tool.
then it will be back to normal.

Thanks for the fast reply. When i put my phone into the pc i hear 3 peeps and the flashtool says please install or reinstall device drivers from drivers folder. But the drivers wont install...
You need additional drivers for windows to recognise the phone in flashmode. Pc companion only installs ADB drivers. They should be installed since you have already unlocked the bootloader. Perhaps try to reinstall the drivers for flashmode then?

Im in fully control PC as administrator.. but the odin program automatic close when i start it..
and my phone cannot leave the download mode, then i try too take the batere off manually..
until now my phone cannot on like usual..
what should i do???
plz help me fix this problem
thx..
Phone > download mode, then:
Start Odin before you attach the phone/USB to your pc.
Also make sure Kies isn't running, either as program or in system tray.
that the problem..
i start after download mode.. then its happen, the odin start but automatic close.. the my phone still in download mode.. until then i plug off the batere.. and now the phone still die..
my bad sory.. can u help me??
note: now I cannot start the phone, i cant start download mode, i cant charging the phone, PC not detect my phone when i try connect the usb cable.. im really brick it..
to clarify:
can you put Phone in download mode?
if so:
put Phone in download mode
Start Odin before you attach the phone/USB to your pc.
Also make sure Kies isn't running, either as program or in system tray.
Not easy to understand you, sorry. Your phone was stuck in download, you removed the battery, and now the phone is completely dead, is that right?

yes correct..
I can only suggest leaving the battery out a little longer and then trying again - download mode -later. Worked for me before on my SGS1 once.... What were you trying to flash?

i just see from youtube about rooting the phone.. then im trying to do the same
thank you very much.. im try your advice.. i will ask you again when its nothing happen.. sory..
No need to be sorry I don't know which root method you're trying, but "flashing" here means whatever you're trying to put on your phone with Odin. What was the name of the file you opened with Odin? Also have a good read of the root bit in my signature.

sory.. but when i start odin.. its suddenly close again.. so my phone stuck in download mode.. im not yet open any file..
btw.. the phone still not start.. any advice??
Odin and whatever you're trying to flash can wait - gotta get your phone working again, but it doesn't look good at the moment...
You cannot turn your phone on at all, right? Not download, not recovery, not normal startup?
Does anything happen when you connect the battery charger?

Root + CWM .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Read the instructions in full .
jje
Good. As jj said, follow that guide - every letter - and you should be OK.
Let us know how you get on.
Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip.. then comes out CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
?? right?
but why CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4.rar.. and when I extract comes out zImage with 8,192kb??
is it correct or i should change the name??
coz its say nothing about it???
You don't need to extract to the zimage yet, one step at a time!
Unzip the rar, load the .tar on Odin. Sounds like you've extracted the original file twice.
Edit - KF3 is old, but carry on with it, you need to practice before you flash new firmware.
CWM step stuck
before this step im okay
but, this one im not understand..
Instructions - If you already have CF-Root
- Copy the zip file to your SD card(ok)
- Stop sharing SD card with computer over USB, unplug the cable, etc(ok)
- Applications -> CWM -> Flash kernel. Select the ZIP file on your SD card.( i cant find in my applications, but there are cwm icon in menu along with superuser.. what should i do? or its the correct one??)
- Done
Sounds like you're rooted now, you get options when you press the cwm icon?
thx.. its rooted now..
hehe.. very good guide.. thx..
i will ask u if any other problem

You need to install the ADB sony drivers... 's1fastboot' requires these. Do a search on google and they will pop up.
actually here are the drivers:
HSPA+ http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z-ultra-driver/
LTE http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z-ultra-c6833-c6806-c6843-driver/
If PC companion still doesnt work then you will need to use 'flashtool' and can then flash an FTF firmware file.
flashtool: http://dfiles.eu/files/lbbuacfhe
.532 firmware: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_rMaA9i_MUSRi1zWlpCOXV4RUE/edit?usp=sharing
I was thinking of making a video on how to do all of these steps, however I have to fly out in a couple of hours so wont have time until next week...
thank you .... !! i will try all these ... i have a slow internet..

Next time, don't try to tweak a stock kernel. If you're not sure how stuff works, don't mess with it. If you're not sure about something then ask us before you do stuff like this. There's a reason why we're all here.

I emailed you this, but may have gone to spam..
they are just driver ini files and system config settings.
1) right click on my computer
1a) properties
2) device profile
3) look for devices without drivers
4) update driver
5) advanced/
6) have disk
7) use the unzipped folder as the location
8) yes continue with unsigned driver version
done
i may have missed a step as I only have access to my Ultra at the moment, but thats what you need to do

The correct for fastboot is blue led always on
When using S1 mode the green led blinks then no led if im right
And use flashtool instead, much easier
