Hey guys i've a problem with my x10
So one night i was playing with it than the other day the phone would start
so i thought yeah right might be the battery or something. i took it to my friends x10 it was with 87% charged so i exclude this
Than i tried to flash with flashtool a new kernel and i get stuck at 9% or 15% depending on the kernel i use.
With SEUS it starts to repair but it says. No new updates avaiable after a few moments.
Some information regarding my phone
Unlocked Bootloader
FXP KERNEL
MM TEAM MIUI V4
The phone vibrate but doesn't start or load the kernel.
What do i do?!
Srry for my bad english
Thx in advance
Usrle flashtool to reflash kernel or firmware.
already did but i get stuck at 9% or 15% flashing the kernel
I'm downloading a full generic rom x10a
having similar problem
Hi, I had similar problem as well
X10i running FXP CM7 suddenly just wont boot n charge after I turn off the phone
it wont boot after flashing anything (firm or kernel) except the official firm
now that I end up with a cap R bootloader but flashtool claim that bootloader is rooted
do I still keep the bootloader unlock?
i guess you have a locked bootloader since the original firmware is loading just fine even tho rooting has nothing to do with the bootloader it self. i'm only guessing.
I'm stuck at. Flashing Loader
I bricked my phone last week and it got stuck in a boot loop.
I downloaded the x10a generic Stock ROM and flashed it via Flashtool and it worked like a charm.
Hope this helps.

But that way you weren't at a brick point.
You get brick when u get those 3 blink red LED and the phone doesn't do anything
By the fact that your phone were able to load the kernel. i guess
same problem repeat
Hi, just confirm that the bootloader remain unlock as long as the flashtool claim its ROOTED
had you try other than official 2.3.3 ftf?
because I just got the same unable to boot problem repeated again
this time cant get boot on even stock 2.3.3 firm
but I was able to boot up and charge on 2.1, then get root, recovery and kernel (w/o unlock bootloader again) and go straight to custom ROM with no problem

And it get stuck at Flashing loader
Idk but i can "read" the kernel when i dump the propriets but i can't "right" when i try to flash something
Anyone?
guys?
you said your phone is "bricked"
I'm not sure if you know what that means.
If you say you've bricked your phone then no one can help you.
A brick is a brick. It doesn't matter if it weighs a few kgs or a few hundred grams. A brick can't receive phone calls.
And your phone isn't even a normal brick... You wrote that it's "really bricked"
Are you building a house anytime soon?

The red led blinking rapidly three times means the battery is "out of juice".
I've said it earlier: Several X10 devices have reached an age, where battery failures are fairly common due to charge cycles and/or age. Specially if one got it just after the launch.
Anyhow, what you can do, is let the device charge "blindly" for a while, and a while I mean for half an hour to a few hours. Then it should, out of the blue, jump into "active" charging (With the battery screen showing offline charging)
If this doesn't happen you might have to charge the battery externally.
...or even replace the battery.
-"Why?", one might ask.
Reason is that the flash mode only works with a charged battery.
If it empty, it won't engage the flash mode at all. Stupid design, yes, but that is how it is.
Worst thing is, that the battery does deplete/discharge while in flashing mode. That is why it's so important it's fully charged and fully working, before one engages in flashing activities.

Well, if the battery issue was fixed, and you're sure the battery is fully charged, then try this: (Quoting from my other post)
I've charged/replaced the battery, and are having trouble with starting up. Earlier flash failed. Now what?
Don't worry. It's pretty darn hard to truly brick this device. Even if the screen remains black, there's still hope.
Once that the battery issue has been dealt with, you can move on:
Download the latest Flashtool and the proper global firmware (FTF-file) for your device from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ight=flashtool
1: Extract/Install the Flashtool to a folder of your liking.
2: Copy the ftf-file to the "firmware" folder in the Flashtool folder you just created above.
3: Start Flashtool. Click the Bolt icon (flash). A Window appear. There, choose "flashmode". Cllick OK.
4: A new window appears. In the list on the left, choose the Generic firmware you downloaded and copied into the "firmware" folder. Should have a similar name as the file itself. (Or manually open the ftf-file from the "..." icon on the top right.)
5: Hit "OK. Follow the instructions you get on the screen:
1 - Unplug the device.
2 - Power off the device. (Unplug and replug the battery to be sure it really off, and not stuck in black screen)
3 - Press the "back" putton, and hold it down while performing the next task.
4 - Plug the device into the computers USB.

Hi @almomdegal,
if you try flash using another full charge batt n its not work, I think this forum is no longer works for u anymore.
I own a faulty X10 as well, random shut down (no warning at all) then wont boot n charge
reflash it, revive for few days and dead again, and reflash....
now it is really dead, no problem appears and it show flash successful and it just wont boot or charge but vibrate non stop
I just send the phone to service center and the board need to be replace
so its time to send to the real professional to solve it, coz this problem ain't software downloaded from internet can solve anymore

Hello there,
I am having a problem with my Xperia X10a.
Was using ferraKernal v25 with ferrarom. Everything was working fine until yesterday.
PROBLEM: When i try to power my phone on, it vibrates for a short time with a single blink of green but the phone wont turn on.
SOLUTION TRIED:
1. Battery ok.
2. Flashtool 0.2.9 gb ready (flashing aborted)
3. Flashtool 0.9.18 (gets stuck at Processing of loader_unlocked.sin finished.)
4. pc companion (This device has no updates)
Below is the screenshot from flashtool.
Is there anyway to solve this problem. ?
Thank you.

Have you tried, or are you able to get into recovery? If so , maybe you can do a backup ( if there's anything to backup ) and then reflash the rom. Or if you already have a backup, do a restore.

To get into recovery you need to press the power button , then continually press the back button, ( don't hold it but keep pressing on off on off for about 30 seconds ). Only with the phone and battery, no USB cable! If you don't have any success with recovery you may need to flash a stock firmware.
Did you root the phone or purchase it already rooted? Do you know what firmware was on the phone before it was rooted?

Well..as i opened the thread with some statements above mate..
I was already using a Feravolt rom and kernel..And i rooted it and then flashed.
And obviously i know what/how to get into recovery.
But the thing is its not working without any good reason...
Situation like this happened to me before..
i was able to sues it then with stock..
But nothing seems to work now.
I guess i am not worth the seniors attention in here.
I shouldnt have opened the thread at the first place
but Hey, thanks for at least trying to help
Can you do a small test for me? I would like you to put the entire phone into a freezer ( not fridge ) for ten minutes, then take it out and see if it will power up. Will not harm the phone, I do it with an HD2.

Try looking up some recovery software from the manufacturer like HTC does. Otherwise is a little to vague.

I have the same problem :crying:
Does someone know what to do?
Hey guys!
First of all i do not know if offering a donation for people helping out someone is again the rules here on xda, if so please tell me.
I will make a short intro and tell you that i yesterday received a Z2 from a friend that had upgraded himself with a newer phone so i got this one for free as a gift. (Had an Galaxy SII before)
And guess what, first thing i do is bricking it, genius..
When i got the phone i decided to "what the heck i want to root it" (because i rooted my SII without any problems) Anyhow i looked online and came across this guide made by arul20be, here on xda: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219
So i fallowed the guide downloaded everything except that i could not use adb-setup-1.4.2 nor could i use adb-setup-1.4.3. The installation did not extract any files, so i found version 1.3 of ADB and it worked. The rest went flawlessly until i came to the last step, where i booted in to recovery with Dual recovery and installed flashable_D6503_23.4.A.0.546.zip. After that i did as instructed, cleaned cache/dalvik. After that i tried to exit the recovery and choose i think it was "power off system", you guys that are familiar with Dual recovery probably understand where i pressed. After that my phone shut down and after a while either it started up or i started it(don't remember) and it shows the SONY logo, nothing more happened. It didn't not shut down or do anything so i let it be for like an hour or so and then decided to hard shutdown it by pressing power and volume up key. i tried to start it up after a while again to see if maybe something happens, nothing happend and i let the phone be on during the night to see if anything could happen.
So today when the the story was the same i looked online to try to solve the problem, i tried to enter recovery mode by pressing on and then pressing volume up and down but nothing. Did
try to hard factory rest by pressing the red button for a couple of seconds, but nothing. it vibrates three times and then the sony logo comes up again. (is it called bootloop?)
The status now is that the phone, if plugged in to a power source like PC, or wall it will show the SONY logo even if you shut it down with power off and volume up. in other words the phone restarts itself. The only way to shut it down is to do it without a power source.
The fallowing tools+files has been used:
adb-setup-1.3.exe
flashtool-0.9.19.8-windows.exe
rootkitXperia_20140719.zip
Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.7.154-BETA.installer.zip
D6503_17.1.2.A.0.314_UK Generic.ftf
flashable_D6503_23.4.A.0.546.zip
So the thing is that i really want to upgrade myself with a new phone. In the same time i got like under one bitcoin that i had for a while and because of my stupidness i feel like i can donate to that to the first person who engages him/herself to that level so i can use my phone again.
Sorry for the long post! Thanks in advance!

But i do hope your phone gets alright again..

Try with flashtool 0.9.18.6. On 0.9.19.x I had some problems with booting (one time stucks at sony logo, one time bootloop, one time freezes all the time, on tme flathtool crashed...)
Download Flashtool 0.9.18.6 and download and flash 23.4.A.0.546 ROM from here: https://mega.nz/#!n1YlBAhI!HX8WPPyjLDJGnUZ-9_Xom96OFZcDUfasgzjuagrj2UE (this is compiled by me FTF File, I'm using it when sth goes wrong) and then, when it boots (must boot because it's not hardbrick), charge it to 100%, download 23.1.A.1.28 5.0.2 ROM from here https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0By-vo9NJkgzJVUo0dVNreFNvSjg&export=download
And flash this ROM and reboot and DO NOT UPDATE. Install KingRoot (the newest is the best) and root it, then install XZ Dual Recovery and that's all.
Hope I helped, if not, write me in comment what went wrong, and, if any errors in flashtool are shown, copy and paste to comment and let mi see them.

Thank you for the reply! i can not see how much my phone is charged and when i charge it the SONY logo shows up, so i do not know how much that drains the battery. But i will wait an hour or so then. Will try method after that! Though my phone was gone, but what i have now read myself to is that Hard brick is first when the phone is totally dead.
Before you answered i was going to do this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53220435&postcount=4
But i will go with your instead first. Should i uninstall my current flashtool and download Flashtool-0.9.18.6-windows.exe instead for now then while i wait for my phone to charge?

You can only use custom roms with an unlocked boot loader. Locked boot loader requires a sony kernel.
**edit**
Read the instructions he gave you, it's a modified stock rom so that should be fine. I've bricked mine and the flashtool has resolved it so hopefully it will for you
Um... Considering the fact that your phone boots up, I strongly recommend you to try a fresh install with pc companion.... I had somewhat a similar issue and it was the last resort for me and it worked...

Try with flashtool 0.9.18.6. On 0.9.19.x I had some problems with booting (one time stucks at sony logo, one time bootloop, one time freezes all the time, on tme flathtool crashed...)
Download Flashtool 0.9.18.6 and download and flash 23.4.A.0.546 ROM from here: https://mega.nz/#!n1YlBAhI!HX8WPPyjLDJGnUZ-9_Xom96OFZcDUfasgzjuagrj2UE (this is compiled by me FTF File, I'm using it when sth goes wrong) and then, when it boots (must boot because it's not hardbrick), charge it to 100%, download 23.1.A.1.28 5.0.2 ROM from here https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0By-vo9NJkgzJVUo0dVNreFNvSjg&export=download
And flash this ROM and reboot and DO NOT UPDATE. Install KingRoot (the newest is the best) and root it, then install XZ Dual Recovery and that's all.
Hope I helped, if not, write me in comment what went wrong, and, if any errors in flashtool are shown, copy and paste to comment and let mi see them.

I am currently downloading https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0By-vo9NJkgzJVUo0dVNreFNvSjg&export=download and will flash soon. I just have some questions, because i fallowed this guide:
"http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/stock-d6502-23-1-0-726-complete-guide-t3085893" and did install both rootkitXperia_20140719 and lockeddualrecovery. did those programs get wiped when i installed your custom ROM? Sorry for all the questions but i am trying to get a grip how the phones software works, and so i dont mess anything more up when installing kingsroot etc.
Btw. Kingsroot should i download that from google play or is it through PC? If i should download their APK.
Kingroot download apk from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
Then install xzdual recovery from nut via PC but turn off anti-virus because it shows virus (it's exploit) and then push prerooted zip to sdcard and install via twrp but remember to make factory reset (wipe data and cache - wiping cache can take up to 10 minutes). If you root via kingroot you won't lose data, but when installing prerooted Rom you'll lose your data (but internal memory won't be wiped)

btw. what does the dual recovery do? never really understood it. and whats a bootloader? Sorry for the questions
Yes, but download for Z2 filename: Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.25-RELEASE.combined.zip when you install it, phone will reboot to TWRP Recovery, so before you install it, place prerooted rom zip to sdcard

have you checked if fastboot and flashmode work ??? if they do try flashing because I think the part you changed have some kind of a serial code that the software installed doesn't recognize, and so fails to boot, so you have to flash a new ROM and reset the saved serials
Hi, Please can you send me the tools that you used in this process and tell me in step by step how you did it, Thank you very much
