Hey guys,
I have an x10i that just went dead one day, I thought it needed a software re-install so I did it. Now it wont turn on and I just get a quick green blink and a vibrate when I turn it on. Ive flashed it 10 times via sony update too and pc companion and flash tools. I dont know what to do, any help would me much appreciated.
Download SEUS from Sony and flash. Make sure it is fully charged and make sure you are using the right USB cable and try using several different USB ports on your computer if the first one doesn't work.

Thanks for the response, I have a fully charged battery and just re-flashed with still no luck. What did you mean about the "right usb cord" ?
Thanks again.
I mean reflashed with SEUS (not PC Companion) and by right USB cord, I mean the one that came with the phone. Or if you have the possibility, try another one.
Tried with 2 different usb cords and on 2 different cpus. I think Im S.O.L
One more question, after a flash how long does it take for the xperia to boot up?
During a flash with SEUS it tells you when the phone is rebooting....same with the Flashtool.
Screen turns on...still black...then Sony logo, then your bootlogo followed by desktop.

Is it successfully flashing using SEUS or flashtool? Does it actually flash and then not boot? What does it say when you flahs using the flashtool?
But again, if the flashtool isn't working, you are going to have to use SEUS to get back to scratch. Run it as Admin...let it boot up and do nothing to the phone for at least 2 minutes. Do not swipe or move a thing....let it settle down.
Some of you people who ask for help really don't provide much information at all.
To me it looks like a wrong firmware problem... version you have installed isn't the same as kernel.
I would flashtool....root....turn off phone....SEUS full reflash....

When the flash finishes up it says to turn on the device and the start up may take some time, Ive let it sit for hours and still nothing. IDK what the hell is wrong with it.
K well I give up. Ive tried 3 more times using a cpu with xp and still the same thing.
If any one else has had this problem please let me know.
looks like the faulty motherboard issue to me, some users are experiencing this problem, if you have warranty get a new phone if don't then i don't know what else can you do :/
Great. I have no warenty so looks like I'm screwed.

now i get the message: device is locked, status code:0
battery ok

usb connected
what can i do to rescue the phone ? it has been bought 3 weeks ago in germany for 489 euro.
All razrs currently have the locked status, it's referring to the boot loader which moto has declined to unlock.

Go Motorola Suport Website and look for Warranty. Provide your IMEI number and you'll get the service provider (carrier) you phone is attached. Then you'll know wich rom to flash.

But can you normally reboot your phone now?
You need to recharge before attempting to flash.
If you can't do this, try this link. I don't know if it works
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1549625
I think you can flash 651.167.26 or .19/20. You can find it on Motorola official roms thread

after 5 minutes battery was ok, instead of "battery low"
i have uninstalled the old rsd lite
downloaded rsd lite v5.6
downloaded "SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml" sorry, i don´t know the link
i have pressed volume down, volume up and power button.
selected fastboot mode.
started rsd lite
selected the "spdrem_u_..." file
and pressed start. it took about 15 minute

Get your IMEI in sdcard door of your razr then visit motorola support website I posted and you'll know wich rom to flash. You'll need to flash it with a factory cable as said above.
Good luck!

I tried to flash my neo using flash tool but it stuck at 38% some time at 91%. Same for ICS and GB ftf file. Can any one please help me out.
Have you the newest flashtool? If you have, you could try some other pc. Maybe it will work

Not really sure but has to do with USB.
On one PC I couldn't finish flashing(same problem, stuck at different %) until I used USB port on the back.
On my PC I also use front USB port, and didn't have problems, maybe 1/100 times it stuck, but yesterday it was every second flash failed, until I restart my PC, even then it stuck one time, and after that, it was all ok.

I forgot to make a backup from my stock system, and now i can't install any 2.3 based rom, because xrecovery don't allow that because of the ICS.
Is there a possibility to download stock rom and kernel, and flash it to the phone?
Why not. Search for the firmware for your phone and flash through flashtool following the on screen instructions. Cant ttell you exact build number because im an arc user using this now because the USB port is broken.

So when i understand it good, then with flashtool i can flash any GB based rom on the ICS as well. Can i make it from a "zip" rom? When i flash a cm7, i don't need to change the fxp kernel.

No what im saying is that you wanna return to stock dont you. So I told you to flash a stock gb ftf using flashtool. But you do NOT flash custom Roms using flashtool, you boot into recovery and flash. And no, you can't turn a ftf into a zip
Edit; if I understood you correctly you wanted to flash cm7 ddont you... its simple... just flash the kernel through flashtool then boot into recovery and wipe everything and flash tthe rom. No need to flash stock first because the recovery is bundled in the kernel!

I solved the problem, the phone worked properly for months, but now i can't switch on the phone. The green led blinks, the phone vibrate one time and than nothing happens. I tried to flash some firmwares, but i can't made it. Flashtool wrote that flashing and nothing happens. I tried with Omnius as well, but the software can't read flash memory and can't flash anything. I think the phone is "hard bricked". Can anyone help me to save my phone?

I tried it with an LG GT540 battery, but the effect was the same. But with the original battery the phone didn't vibrate yet, just blink the red notification LED 3 times, and that's all. I tried to charge the battery (not with PC, with charger) and the phone did a strange thing. First when the charger attached, the RED LED blinking and after some time it turned to GREEN and stop blinking, just lighted. After some time the green LED turns off and then nothing lights.
In my environment nobody has X10 phone, that's why I can't try another original X10 battery, but I think with the LG battery must have work as well, when the battery is the failure.
Hello I did have had this problem aswell a while ago. I have had the phone in cwm recovery while doing a backup I fell asleep next day won't turn on only vibrate 1 time and 3 red blinks after it..
I really was desperate I tried many methods even flashed a kernel with offline charging which I thought was the trick but not that I realy now off.
I did notice i could get in recovery if I connect phone in flashmode and leave it till it reboots it's own should happen within 40 secs I guess.
After I saw that it could do that why it's not booting... I did some digging but I am not sure but I guess it's a file or binary (batterystats.bin) in data/system directory somewhere which keeps track of your battery and even if you plug new full battery it simply thinks it drained of the previous saved info of your old battery. (hope someone can confirm this because I didn't find any info such about but it should make sense if you ask me)
But in the end I used Sony PC companion to reapair it from there and it worked only one weird thing I needed to do was switching from USB power adapter to PC USB to have it connect in flashmode strangely.
And after that I only needed to root etc. again.

Hi!
I have found the solution last time, and it works for a while, but i don't know how.
But now we were on holiday, and I forgot the charger, and the phone was switched off for 3 days, and the problem came out again.
I have an RC car which have a LiPO charger, I made an own "connector" to that and I charged the battery with that.
Could you please tell me, how you switched from "USB power adapter to PC USB" when the phone don't switch on?
Thanks!
Ok, this is as much a heads up to other P780 users as a desperate shoutout for help... I don't think I've seen anybody else with this problem so far, so here goes.
I purchased a P780 in december 2013, loved every bit of it and it worked flawlessly until about 1 month 1/2 ago. The phone was still brand new, but all of a sudden, it decided it will not charge unless I shut it down.
Basically:
- Phone powered ON, no charge, and not recognized when plugged into a computer => nothing happens. The funny thing is if I use the USB OTG cable, it will actually see and read USB flash drives...
- Phone powered OFF, will charge although the screen won't show anything, only the red led will let you know that it is charging. Also, it won't charge past 88%, meaning when I turn it off and charge it, the maximum battery % is 88% even if I let it charge for 2 days...
The phone has been like that for more than a month now... I considered sending it back for repair or exchange, given it's still under warranty but I am afraid to do so, since I would have to send it back to china and the seller who I bought it from won't help.
Ok, so what do you guys suggest I do? Do you think it's hardware related or software related? I am not sure it is hardware since it will actually charge albeit when powered off, and it will see USB flashdrives when using the USB OTG cable...
PS: I am running multinlingual S125 (Chinese P780).
The easiest solution is: Do a factory reset, if not working; Flash another ROM. Still not working? Sent back to service center, probably is hardware issue then.
Well that was my first reaction, when I first noticed it about 1 month 1/2 ago: I directly factory reseted it, which did nothing. I then proceeded to reflash the ROM (Multinlingual S125, Chinese base), which also did nothing. By the way, flashing was a bit of an ordeal since the tel would not be recognized when plugged into a computer. What I did was press Power + Volume Up, after launching flashtool and clicking on download or firmware upgrade. Only then would the computer recognize that something is being plugged in and start the flashing process. May be that info could help other people...
I proceeded to changing base to ROW P780 (using satanduck's ROW S123) a few days ago, in a last desperate attempt that it would change something, but alas... Really though, sending the phone back to China for repair scares the living f**k out of me, I don't even know how to proceed or where to begin...
Same here, i have charging problem with my p780. It wont charge with powered on, and only able to charge when switch it off. Been doing resets and flashes many time since then but nothing can fix my charging issue. Asked several times in local p780 forum including kaskus, also give no solution. I:ve read many complain bout lenovo SC in my country, make me think twice to take my phone there.

Same here
I have same problem. It's nice to know that phone will be recognized in recovery mode... so I can flash it.. since I have managed to damage its rom, so it wont boot. All in hope to solve this no-charging problem..
Still have same problem, even worse..
I have checked, unforunatly, my PC doesn't register my phone as any device when it's in recovery mode. With that said, I can't flash new rom, or recovery. Now I'm stuck with rom that doesn't boot, TWRP recovery that is incompatible with this phone (so I can't flash another rom), USB connection that makes phone unrecognizible by PC so I can't flash rom/recovery with flashtool..
I have gone to official Lenovo service here in Serbia, but since I have KIT (for China market) version of phone, there is nothing they could do to help. Pretty lame..

Try reinstall drivers for phone. Or try use another PC with different OS (win7 or winxp). Before your phone was recognized on your PC? Did you have installed drivers for phone before?

I have read almost all topics regarding p780, and have found this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52665841&postcount=16
That saved me... I have newer version of P780 that uses newer Preloader.img. That's why I couldn't flash anything. Now I still have that no charging while powered on problem, but at least I have 90% functional phone..
Leaked battery.
If anybody care to know why P780 has this problem. Driven by little madness I opened the device using mini screwdriver. Found lots off white crust on the right lower corner. I can conclude that mine has battery leaking problem which caused it loss 1/3 of its potential. A replacement need to be done by lenovo center.
