Hi, I bought a Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 and decided to update the firmware through SE Update Suite. In the middle of firmware update, the computer BSoDed on me. The phone went dead and the PC did not detect it any more (Unknown USB device in device manager).
Eventually I managed to detect the phone by SEUS (on another machine); now I have a "COMXX SSE X2 Software DOWNLOAD" in device manager. I follow the instructions in SEUS to update the firmware, press and hold Vol Down + Power buttons. The phone vibrates and device manager shows "COMXX SE X2 Software DOWNLOAD", but SEUS does not update the phone.
What can I do to recover the phone?
update firmware
How can I update firmware from card?

You have to do it through SEUS.
don't worry
this happened to me too. heres what you do read all the steps before you do it
first go ahead and charge you phone just plug it into the wall then follow these directions
1.) start suess and continue like you normally would
2.) remove your battery cover and leave it off
2.) when you get to the step that asks you to plug in your phone, connect your phone via usb to you computer, then hold the down volume button + the power button + while you are holding these buttons push the soft restart button* do this all at once and do not let go of any of the buttons until you see the white screen with the sony ericson logo and it should update like normal.
*to get to the soft restart look at the back of the phone with the battery cover off, now pull out the stylus right there next to you camera where you stylus came out is a little button push it with your stylus.
this worked for me when i thought i bricked my phone and it worked, so good luck and tell me how it works out

doesn't wurk, device unknown maybe you didn't brick your phone, that's why it was still booting to logo screen...
I noticed that "COMXX SSE X2 Software DOWNLOAD" device appears in Device manager when the Volume UP is pressed on boot instead of Volume DOWN.
One more thing... There is a useful piece of software out there called QPST (Qualcomm Phone Service Tool). When I have the phone in download mode it detects the device (since it's Qualcomm platform, pretty much like ZTE 3G modems). But I don't have loaders or software to flash the phone baseband from QPST. Maybe if someone can parse the firmware available on the Net and extract the said loaders and software, then I could flash the Baseband and get the phone detected by SEUS to continue flashing Windows part. Unfortunately, decrypting the firmware is way beyond my knowledge. Anyone more knowledgeable on this subject?
First of all: Charge your phone for at least 2 hours from wall charger. I have experienced that it does not charge from USB always, especially when in update mode.
Please try this if you have only charged from USB previously.

Thanks for your advice, but I am aware that phones don't always get full charge with damaged firmware. That is why I took the battery out and charged it fully with a special charger for batteries.
Need help
Can anybody help? - Problem is that i cant "push" my phone to go to bootloader (tried soft-reset, vol down+shut down..nothing helps), so it i cant update via SEUS. And after trying to instal manualy R3 cab's, "Clear phone memory" is gone - now i even can't reset my phone.
Anybody, please help.
what i think you trying to do is boot the rom from the sd card is that right? if you are, it won't work because you need a alternative bootloader or a hard-spl which the x2 doesn't have... yet. thats why we HAVE to use SUES. if you can't get your computer to recognize your phone even after charging it in you special charger and forcing it into bootloader via SUESS (the option i pitched earlier) your best bet is to contact Sony Ericsson or who ever you bought it from and tell them they sold you a faulty device and they HAVE to replace it. if you get the opportunity to talk to them on the phone be firm and don't ever place fault on yourself and push that they sold you a broken device, hopefully they will send you a new one. i'm sorry i couldn't help. At this time my knowledge in Winmo is ignorant at best. good luck
anyone know how to help?? i also have this problem.... ><
Down volume button + the power button doesn't have the logo of SE..
and the SEUS can't detect my x2... wanna cry//
Hi!
Do exactly like this:
1 Charge the battery with the wall charger to at least 50.
2 Remove all cables connected to X2. This is important!
3 Remove and re-insert battery.
4 Push and hold volume down.
5 While still holding volume down, push and hold Power at the same time.
6 Hold until SE logo on white background appears, then release both buttons.
7 Now connect USB cable.
Be careful to follow this exactly or it will not work!
x2 prob

Or You might need go to " C " drive - Progam files _ sony Ericson than remove any SEUS in that folder befor you go to inStall new F/Ware up date , everytime you want to reflash new SEUS you have to remove the last time F/Ware evenly that is the same one SEUS .than you go on for update new F/Ware SEUS to your phone .
Here is the support site for US. SE has a dedicated Nr and mail for x2.

X2 morto !!!
I have the same problem, now I try to modify the language of my phone, just missing to finish the installation program displayed an error message and now I can not in flash mode puts you ... what friends do?
My X8, when booted, freezes during the sony ericsson logo
it was working fine earlier using CM7.0.2 (2.3.4) v.65 but i rebooted it and now it freezes
it wont let me boot into xrecovery to restore any previous backups and i read something about connecting to sony ericsson PC companion and using that to restore it to its default settings but apparently, it needs to be turned on to connect to that so i cant do that
I've flashed a few roms in the past but i wouldn't say im a seasoned veteran or anything like that
Is there any way to restore my phone? or do i have a new paperweight?
Download SEUS from Sony Ericsson site. Then select the phone (X8). When you are asked to switch off the phone and press back button to repair/ to search for an update for your phone, connect the USB, then press and hold power button + Menu button + back button simoultaneously. You should see the green LED light now and the phone will be connected. Hope it helps.
Many people have had this problem. Use the search button please. DO NOT spam the development area.
Thanks

Repair using SEUS (SE update service), not PC companion. you don't have to turn on your phone to do that.
Just follow the instructions, and connect your phone in flashmode (turn off, then hold back button and connect it to pc).
Sorry death214, i searched and didn't find anything
thanks to you both, ill give it a go now
It worked
Thanks a lot
Btw, you can use flashtoot too but now... Whatever.

Hi,
Dears, I've try to install another ROM on my Xperia X8, and I've copy all required
files to "system\bin" and every things is coming well.
When try to enter to recovery mode by pressing "Back button" after SonyEricsson
logo is appeared the recovery window isn't come !
So can anybody help me in this issue ?
I know it's not clear to understand this but I'm not able to explain :S
Regards,
if you really copied them, and it didn´t say "cannot paste here because file system is read-only" there are two possibilities:
1. You pressed the button when the white "Sony Ericsson" appeared, but you long-pressed it.
Press it as often as you can (don´t worry,it´s not really difficult)
2. You pressed it when you saw the bootanimation, which is also SE logo, but it´s animated.
You have to press it when you see the white SE.
Hope I could help.
Have you installed Busybox?

You are facing a bootloop. If you can enter xRecovery, try making a full wipe.

After you copy the 3 xRec files in system/bin, long press on each xRec file, tap permissions and tick all boxes. Reboot phone and when the white Sony Ericsson TEXT appears (not the logo with the round thingy), start tapping the back button, don't long press it, just keep tapping it fast till the xRecovery menu shows up.
And yes, make sure you have installed busybox from the market.
thanks, it helped

turn off the phone, hold volume + and power button, after press home when you see lights, maybe it will work
because vol - & power and home is factory resets
Thanks anyway
