hello
I bought a phone that did not work. I was able to fix the mechanical defect
the phone switched on but was blocked by a code.
so I decided to do the system reflash
I downloaded the system and tried to install it according to the instructions
the first time I received an error while flashing "modem.sin"
I downloaded another rom from flashtool
with the next I received an error while flashing "system.sin"
so I downloaded the third version of the system and it was "central europe 1"
but this time I could not get through the flashtool connection
receives an error when trying to connect the phone to the computer
"For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode"
I do everything the same as before so why the phone does not want to connect
-(gren light is on, but its blinking every 2 seconds yellow)
-(i can connect phone via fast boot and blue light is on)
also when i turn on phone logo sony appears but later a message is displayed (screen attached) and phone turning off
i want just flash stock unbranded soft for europe
please help
Try press volume down plus up and power button to reset the phone and try again
seems like BAD flash due to missing drivers
please install from C:\Flashtool\drivers (ALL devices)
Also install https://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-x-driver/ (if asked)
now flash again!
also make sure you flash CORRECT stockrom and using LATEST falshtool , and REPLACE xflasher JAR files to LATEST if you are flashing Nougat

a few days ago I tried to root my xperia S to get more functionality. So i read on the internet on several blogs and started to download a rom. First i unlocked my phone with fastboot.exe. Then i try to boot via Command prompt. It says everinthing was okay in about 120 secs, but when i disconnect and tried to start my phone, i only got the sony logo and that was freezed. Even if i reboot, it cames again. I've tried some other ftf files to flash, but nothing worked. Now my battery is empty, and i don't get the phone back in fastboot mode.
Anyone have tips for me? Im very new in it so please help me...

For now, charge your battery first. U atleast need to have 80% charge before u can fastboot/flash your phone.
- (Only If Your Phone Doesnt Start) Press Power Button+Volume Up for some 10/15 seconds, u will get three vibrations which mean u just hard reset the phone. It normally takes about 2/3 minutes to boot up a phone after a new flash or kernel has been installed. If not then follow the the below instructions after the hard reset and see if it works.
- Assuming that you have already got the downloaded ftf (Firmware file) saved in the FIRMWARE folder of flashtool, if not then save it.
- Open up your flashtool.
- Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN key.
- Keep it pressed, connect the USB cable to your PC (assuming that u already have the usb connected to the phone)
- Release the Volume Down key when phone's GREEN LED lights
- Click the flash button (yes: the thunder icon up left)
- Select "Flahsmode" and click "OK"
- Select your desire firmware and click "OK", DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE
- Flashtool will prepare the files for flashing, just be patient
- Flashtool will start flashing automatically, let it finish to 100%
- At the end, Flashtool will prompt a line saying u need to check Unknown Sources And USB Debugging mode and thats when u know that u have successfully flashed a stock/custom ROM.
- Disconnect the phone, power up and give it some minute to boot up and work.
- Have fun :highfive:
HOW TO ROOT:
Depending on the Firmware/ROM the rooting method varies, i use Advanced Kernel Build14 on my new stock ICS firmware but always used DoomKernelv0.4+Recovery to Root Stock GB firmwares
You Can Download Any One Of them:
- AdvancedKernel14(Fastboot) For ICS
- DoomKernels(Fastboot+Recovery) Thread
How to Fastboot and just Root without Recovery and back to STOCK KERNEL:
First of all i will advice you to do this if ONLY you are planning to root your phone but want to come back on your stock kernel. Its a good thing to do if you have just flashed a new firmware like 6.0.A.2.45
Here's what you do:
[ requirements ]
# bootloader of the device is UNLOCKED
# Download and install FASTBOOT DRIVERS (DoomLord)
# Downlaod and Unzip FASTBOOT BINARIES
- Unplugged your USB from pc and Turn Off your phone
- Rename Advanced Kernel Build 14 to kernel.elf or unzip DoomlordKernelv0.4, unzip it and copy kernel.elf
- Open Fastboot Binaries folder
- Go To Fastboot folder, paste the kernel.elf file
- Press and hold VOLUME UP key.
- Keep it pressed and connect your phone and pc through USB.
- BLUE LED light will turn on means you are in fastboot mode, release the key.
- Fastboot folder opened, press SHIFT+RIGHT MOUSE button on the screen and choose Open Command Window here.
- Type
fastboot devices
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to check if your phone is connected properly and if it is, something like PSDN : xxxxx will be shown.
- Type
fastboot flash boot kernel.elf
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Give it some seconds as it will load the kernel on the phone.
- Type
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and your phone will restart. Give it some minute and it will boot up plus you will have root access :highfive:
ONLY IF YOU WANT TO GO BACK ON STOCK KERNEL WITH ROOT ACCESS:
- Assuming you have 7zip installed in your system, if not then google, download and install the programme.
- Right click on the ftf (firmware) file.
- Choose 7zip > Open Archive
- Click kernel.sin > Extract and save it anywhere in your PC
- Connect your phone through USB (You Can do it even if your phone is ON)
- Click the THUNDER ICON.
- Choose FASTBOOT. Choose OK.
- Click Reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB) if it gives error on flashtool then click REBOOT INTO FASTBOOT MODE ( via FASTBOOT)
- The Phone will turn off and will automatically go into fastboot mode ( BLUE LED )
- Click SELECT KERNEL TO FLASH
- Choose kernel.sin
- Give the kernel some seconds to flash and the phone will restart.
- You will see the SONY logo again if you have done it correctly ( YES YOU WILL because you just successfully flashed the stock kernel)
- Wait for some minute and the phone will reboot with stock kernel still with root access to it.
ALTERNATIVE WAY TO FLASH THE kernel.sin :
- Copy and paste the kernel.sin file over at the fastboot folder in fastboot binaries. Delete the kernel.elf
- Type fastboot devices
- Type fastboot flash boot kernel.sin
- Type fastboot reboot
:highfive: :highfive:
Follow the above steps and you will definitely have a success
I dont think i can charge my battery. When i put it on a charger, the led is burning red. I've done that for a hole night. But if i disconnect, and try to power up, it doesnt react at all. When i connect it on my pc, the pc doesnt recognize it as a device, only the red led is burning. After a few time the sony logo appears. But stil no recognizing by pc, and still not 3 vibrates after trying a hard reset...
okay, after 3 weeks of waiting im back. I had brought de Xperia S to a telecom store to fix it, but they said that it was impossible for them. Now, i tried for my self again. There are some things to explain.
1 flashing a kernel(eg. kernel.sin) is possible.
2 then, i want to flash a the system partition
3 if i do that via the command prompt by this command it says it fails
4 if i do that by the flashtool by clicking on the thunder icon, then choose the flashmode, and choose the version to load, it's unpackage some files, but then it asks to put the phone into flashmode. If i do that by pushing the volume downbutton and then connect phone with PC, the green LED is burning, but the flashtool still asks to put into flashmode. So it does not start to flash at all, because the phone is not really in flashmode.
Anyone suggestions??
You say you unlocked your phone, do you mean unlocked the bootloader? If it's stuck at boot loop this is sometimes due to locked bootloader. Try to unlock again making sure it has correctly unlocked.
If your pc cannot detect your phone in flash mode, it may be that you don't have all the drivers installed. I don't understand 2.
All in all if your phone is in flashmode but it still says put phone into flash mode im going to presume the drivers aren't installed (or installed correctly).
Here is what I have done in a similar situation.
1, Hold the vol up and vol down buttons pressed at the same with your thumb the while holding the full button pressed, press down on the power button, you are now holding power button and volume +/- at the same time, maintain this pressure for a while, you will feel 1 vibration but keep pressing until you feel 3 vibrations then take your fingers off the power and the volume.
2, Press the vol down and insert your usb that is connected to the PC. you should get a green light, if not try # 1 again 2-3 times
3,Recharge it should only take an hour or two to get decent charge.
4, Start flashtool or PC companion. flash or update.
U should avoid unlocking ur device if u r a noob..and wait for devs to develop a method that roots the device widout hving to unlock bootloader like recentlyBin4ry has developed

Finally, I found the solution by installing flashtool update 9.6.0. With that installed, my phone went into flashmode and it was flashed well. A new question: i installed a rooted version of the ICS firmware. But now it is now longer possible to install updates. Is that a known issue, and is there a solution?
Hello guys.
I recently got an Xperia X10 mini with stock rom, 2.1a, officially updated with last and I decided to install GB.
I follow several tutorials and do the bootloader unlock correctly. After this, looking for a GB ROM, I see that firstly I need to change the Kernel (In this case, "[KERNEL] nAa-14 [23/8/12] Custom Gingerbread kernel" to install the "[ROM] MiniCM7-2.2.1 [10/6/12] Gingerbread 2.3.7".
Then, I copy the "E10_nAa-14_2.6.29.6-nAa-14.ftf" to the firmwares folder in Flashtool folder.
After this, I open the flashtool app, plug the phone in flash mode and click on the flash button. Then, select "Flashmode" and select the Firmware nAa-14, and the kernel.sin file. Press OK and the system starts copying files. Then, the program finish copying and says "now unplug the device and power it on".
I disconnect the cable and here comes the problem. The phone doesn't boots, nothing on screen, and when I try to connect in flash mode, flashtool says:
ERROR - Drivers need to be installed for connected device.
ERROR - You can find them in the drivers folder of Flashtool.
No leds and nothing in the screen. Is there any solution to make the phone come to live?
Thanks guys, any help is appreciated.
Not sure, but when I flashed from stock to MiniCM7 i did more steps than you.
- ROOTed
- installed CWM
- unlocked bootloader
And when flashed KERNEL - Flashtool after finishing told me: DONE - WAIT YOUR DEVICE WILL RESTART... So maybe you read something different (bad)...
(in my case phone not restart, but after unpluging and power on - new start logo appears)
Try the small red button under back-cover -> you should see it in lower left corner near the sticker. Maybe it helps... but only small chance
Hey folks,
its bricked due to FOTA (I think it stands for: firmware over the air) update. This means the phone downloads a firmware update without computer connection or further PC-Software. Alas it didn't work.
Situation:
Phone starts, displays LG Logo and after that an 'updating firmware' screen for about 1 sec before rebooting and doing it all over again.
What I tried to solve this:
set up a new Win 7 32 bit machine to try to unbrick it. (drivers didn't work correctly on 64 bit) at least the MCCI driver update didn't)
connected the phone with the PC in Emergency Mode (holding VOL_UP + VOL_DOWN + PWR while USB is connected)
downloaded B2CApp (LGSupport Tool) and installed the device drivers for Emergency mode.
disabled the Android(Modem) dirver
downloaded V10D_00.kdz from LG home page
using the phones IMEI and this link:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI_NUMBER_GOES_HERE
This gave me this link
http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/swdata/WDLSW/LGE720/ADEUBK/V10d_00/V10D_00.kdz
I'm German so this seems all right, but I'm no expert
installed msxml
ran KDZ_FW_UPD_EN and tried CDMA in CS_EMERGENCY Mode
A bunch of magic happend until the phone restarts during the process and is right back where we started, if I put it back to Emergency Mode while KDZ_FW_UPD_EN is still running the process finishes, but to no avail.
The log of this try is attached.
Where I am stuck now:
phone:
runs in Emergency Mode
is recognized by KDZ_FW_UPD_EN as well es LG Support Tool
Flashing via KDZ_FW_UPD_EN finishes
Flashing yields no result.
What else did I try
download V10C_00.kdz, as well as V10A_00.kdz from LG site and tried those with same result as with V10D_00.kdz
tried 3GQCT Type instead of CDMA
Wild guesses by me:
I need a different KDZ_FW_UPD_EN version, maybe different dll. I got it from here somewhre in a LG P500 related topic.
I messed up the driver install or need a different driver
LG hates me personally and planted this whole brick specifically to get to me.
The device really is permanently bricked, so I did all I could and there is nothing more to do? That would be sad, I hope I'm wrong here.
Additional Info:
The phone is not rooted and has never before been flashed. It ran with the same stock firmware since it was unwrapped.
The phone was not interrupted by power-loss during FOTA update.
The [read phone information] tool from KDZ_FW_UDP_EN crashes every time, maybe this tells somebody where things go wrong
Any help is appreciated. Ask for more info, if you need it.
Update - What else did I try:
I got the LG Support Tool to flash the Emergency Recovery all by itself runs till 99% --> reboots --> still stuck in same ol' bootloop
reentering Emergency Mode from the bootloop makes the Emergency Recovery finish with 100%, no error, but still bricked.

Hello!
My phone, Acer Liquid Z630s, recently had a problem and ended up shutting off as soon as it boots up. I turn it on, the Acer powered by Android white screen shows up then immediately shuts off. What was the problem here?
I couldn't access recovery mode either because it would also show up the same thing above then shut off immediately before it can even reach the recovery mode menu. But I could plug it in directly into download mode through SP Flash Tools because the phone vibrates when I hold down the volume up + power buttons (aka the recovery mode combination which was I think also the download mode combination). I downloaded the correct stock ROM off the Acer website (MT6753) and flashed it. The ROM was successfully flashed. But when I turned it on the screen lit up but it was just a blank black screen. It was lit up, but it was just dark black. I tried to wipe the system and flash the ROM again and at the end of the process, an error message appeared and I looked up the error code and this was exactly it:
"Error 6104
Message: BROM ERROR: S_SECURITY_SECURE_USB_DL_DA_RETURN_INVALID_TYPE (6104), MSP ERROR CODE : 0X00
Meaning: Wrong flash settings or firmware
Solution:
Ensure you set the correct Download-Agent in SP flash tool and are using a firmware for your exact model
Go to Options > Option > Connection > USB Speed > Full Speed
Go to Options > Option > Download > Untick DA DL All with Checksum"
I did what the solution told me, and as I tried to flash the ROM again, but I couldn't turn on my phone anymore. The volume up + power button combination no longer produces a vibration, and when I plug it into my computer it gets detected as a MediaTek USB Port (COM6) but SP Flash Tools no longer detects my phone and gives off this error:
"Error 0x13BE
Message: S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (0x13BE)
Meaning: The firmware you're trying to flash is either not compatible with your device or you have selected the wrong flashing settings
Solution:
Ensure that the file(s) you're trying to flash are actually for your exact phone model
Ensure you tick the boxes for only the files present in the ROM you're about to flash"
I don't know what to do at this point. Is it beyond salvation? But my phone still gets detected by my computer and it still produces the sound when you connect a device through the USB ports. Help me please.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, If you flashed right stock firmware for your device correctly, your device it should not be bricked so I thing your flash file are not good.
Explain me what did you tried and which file you flashed?
Hello all good souls over here.
Could you please help me out with flashing back the original stock ROM to Mediatek MT6737M phone?
UMAX VisionBook P50 LTE, Mediatek MT6737M, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal memory.
What happened:
Before I was trying Oukitel P5 Pro ROM as well as Lineage OS and flashing with SP Flash Tool was working just perfectly.
But then I tried to flash Oukitel P5 Pro Andorid 7 stock ROM. (Oukitel P5 Pro and UMAX VisionBook P50 LTE are completely the same phones. Just different branding)
(And from now on I am not sure if I remember correctly)
When I loaded in scatter file, SP Flash Tool said something about something .... and recommended to do "Format all + Download" and I have done so.
Clicked on the Download button, flashing started instntly when I connected the phone while holding Volume - button.
Flashing stopped in maybe one second with the error which I do not remember as I closed the error window way too quickly. :-(
Later on I noticed that the preloader file is different in this Android 7 ROM then Android 6 ROM.
What is the current behavior:
When the phone is connected (with the battery inside) to the computer phone keeps connecting and disconnecting (appearing in Device manager as Mediatek USB Port) if I click Download button it starts doing "something" instantly which stops at Download DA 100% and after the while ERROR: S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032) pop up windows shows up.
The same error happens if I try to Format it and all other combinations in Download tab (Firmware upgrade, Format All + Download)
If I plug in the phone to the computer while pressing Volume - button phone will show up in the Device manager after about 20 seconds.
(Just to note - When the phone was working OK, I started flashing instantly when I plug the phone into the computer while pressing the Volume - button
So that kind of leads me that if nothing will show up in Device manager when I plug the phone to the computer while pressing Volume - button, then there might be the issue with the phone not switching into META mode? Not sure, just what I have read. But I cannot move any forward at this point.)
What I have tried:
- Correct stock ROM and Oukitel stock ROM (both Android 6 and both I was able to flash correctly and was able to boot them, until I tried Android 7 ROM)
- various SP Flash Tools 5.xxxx (and 3.xxxx too, but version 3 does not accept scatter file at all)
- USBDeview and removing all related USB devices from Windows and re-install them back again.
- Various VCOM drivers I have found on the Internet
- Flashing with SP Flash Tools on Linux (ends up with the exact same result - 4032)
- I tried shorting test point to ground on the phone main board. (The result was the same like when I plug the phone in while holding the Volume - button - Phone would not show up in Device manager for about 20 seconds)
- Tried flashing with the battery inside and outside the phone. (When the battery is outside flashing would not start, but the error about incorrect chip type will show up)
- Read many articles about this error all over the Internet
Do any of you think there is a change to bring the phone back to live? Or do you know what actually might happen to the phone? It does not seems to be completele bricked, but I cannot say in what state the phone is.
Thank you very much for your help and have a nice day.
Hi. I need this rom for this phone. I have umax p50 lte too . Please give me link if you can. Thx
