I just had a major fail!! I tried to debrand my x10i and all I'm stuck with is a triangle with an exclamation mark. It doesn't boot. when I try to do a recovery with the update service all it says that my phone is up to date and then it closes. This sucks big time because I got the phone today!!lol.
i had the same prb and got the same explanation mark in yellow but i used SEUS and it worked.
Just try to update using SEUS not pc companion and it should work for u.
I been trying with the seus but all it says "No new software is available for your phone your phone already has the latest available software installed." then there is an exit button. I have no choice to do a restore.

Well I tried that too. It detects the phone but it wants me to mount the the memory. I don't know how i'm going to do that when I can't get to the OS.

SEUS always gives me the option somewhere on the screen to repair the currently installed software... Strange... you're sure you have the right & latest version of SEUS installed? And aren't overlooking something perhaps??
SEUS doesn't always give the option. We hava XML-trick to get reinstall option on other SE phones, but don't know about X10
Really sad that you bricked your phone on 1st day Good Luck, Hope You'll get it fixed <3

Well, I managed to update the firmware of my X10 but I've a little problem.
When I start the device, it shows an exclamation point in a yellow triangle. Then I tried to update it one more time and SEUS says that I have the most actual firmware, even changing the files to make the unbranding. I would like to know if there is a method to force SEUS to update from those files and skip all the checks. Any suggestions?
I recommend you to just go to the sony ericsson service center to get your phone unbricked. Or maybe you can use the davinciteam debranding service to unbrick your phone but it costs 10 euros.
Just flash the davinciteam's firmware and it would work I guess.
Anyway I went to the service center and told then that my phone could not start after I did an update.

Well, I suppose that there is another way to solve this problem. Something like forcing the program like what Davinci does but made by us.
I did it once yesterday and paid 10euro to davinci to bring my x10lives.
But i heard from other chinese post that people debranded their phone to x10a and can't flash it back to original version and they now got a solution to flash it back to original version by replacing the edited jar file in plugins folder to force update button appear in SEUS.
I have no idea will it works the same way on your case or not i can upload the file to let u give it a try but before that can you try a few things for me. Try press different combination key(eg. cameria button+ volume up... ect) when your screen showing is yellow ! to see will there be any words showing up.

First of all, tnx for the info.
No words apearing at screen, at least on my x10, and I tried several times but no result. No words too, pressing different combination of keys during boot(before vibration).
Finally I send my device to SAT they will make the durty job I expect! (I'll have to pay 25 euros just for updating... but they will bring it back to life)
Cheers and thanks a lot one more time for your time spend!
PD: I realise that jar files could work perfectly in order to force SEUS, that's what people is doing, isn't it?
Anyone find out how to force SEUS to update??
Try flashing the stock 2.1 rom posted by bin4ry that will fix your problem for sure

With PC Companion, even if it tells you that the phone has the latest firmware, you can choose to update anyway so it reflashes the phone with the latest firmware
You can use Binary's tools for update and downgrade. This post is quite old...

It doesn't show that always, incase if that happens you can reboot your computer and try it with SEUS/PC Companion one after one.
If you have problem with the update via SEUS because it says that you have the latest update and wont lets you reinstall the OS, you should try the following
1. Go Here and download the .504 version and flash it via flash tool.
2. Boot your phone and finish the settings wizard.
3.Shut it down
4. Run SEUS and update to .435
I hope that helps for any upcoming problems.

He should be able to just download .435 and flash it with Flashtool.
update your seus or try flashing back to fw .435
To update with SEUS whatever firmware you are running:
Do not attach phone to PC.
Open PC companion on desktop, click support zone, then software update. Will pop up a window with a message saying could not find phone, with an underscored repair phone option. Click this and follow steps including selecting phone model (x10 obviously!). Then attach phone while powered off and holding back key when prompted. SEUS will then wipe your phone and install stock firmware. Done this 3 times as fiddle with my system files far too much and have bootlooped my x10 many times!!!!!
Hope this helps

in PC companion click repair and not update, then follow the on screen instructions
First thing you do after bricking your phone is making a full wipe in xrecovery if you can enter it.

LOL, are you Italian or something?
The Sony Ericsson Update Service didn't work for you? And yes, you must press "Repair" in PC Companion. If both fail, then go here and use Flashtool.
is your base band v 015?for install any rom you need baseband v.15
First chill, start SEUS and use the repair function of it. Nothing very hard to do.
Man, Can someone post that BACKUP of the original 2.1 android from x8? Because I don't make backup, and my pc companion there's no option saying "Repair", so someone can post the original ROM with android 2.1 and I can Install on xrecovery...
Thanks.
x8 bricked

A simpler (and much more reusable option) is to look for Flashtool & download it. Next get the Stock firmware & flash it. That way, regardless of the snag you run into, restoration is merely a few clicks (and a few minutes) away. Try it!

How long did you waited? If you waited almost 10-15min and the result still same then try pc companion. Download Link: http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/
Or
You also can try the method given by saipro
Yeah I had that problem too but I restored with the Sony PC companion. Just now.
Hi everyone, I recently tried to install a custom rom to my sony ericcson x10a running gingerbread 2.3.3. I sucessfully rooted my phone and installed busybox, but when I got to xrecovery, i couldnt install it. So I decided to flash my phone to 2.1. After a sucessful flash, I've been stuck at the Sony Ericsson boot screen. I tried using the Pc Companion but even if it does detect my phone, it gives me these instructions:
1. Drag the status bar downwards
2.Tab USB connected
3. Tap Mount
4. PC Companion will connect to the phone.
And without doing those instructions, it wont connect my phone and i cant do anything. Im like really new to all this and would really appreciated anyones input on my problem!
Thanks

There may be some options using latest flash tool. You can download it from one of the threads in the development section.
I am presuming you haven't used flash tool yet. That should also install xrecovery.
Cheers,

Thanks for the reply, I couldn't find anything on the latest flashtool, i think something is wrong with my loader on the phone. But it wont let me flash a new one, i go into flash mode when it asks me and then it magically disconnects and aborts the flash. Is there any other option for me?
Thanks m8
EDIT: My bad for not reading the thread title properly.
Anyways, what were you trying to flash? Can you give us the log of the flashing process?

Thanks for the reply, I'm currently trying to update using SEUS v.2.11.4.11, I'll try using Androxyde and Bin4ry. SEUS is giving me instructions to go into flash mode and i cant now. The phone will just boot to the Sony Ericsson screen and then stop like before.\
