..."You can try to upgrade without a wipe, but if you run into any problems (for example, su/Superuser doesn’t work), you’ll need to perform a wipe. If you don’t want to wipe, take a nandroid backup before upgrading, so you can revert back to the backup."

Did you do a wipe before you installed? Some people were having that problem and was solved by a wipe.

Won't boot in what way? Can you get into fastboot and/or recovery? Since you're asking about CWM, I'm assuming you can get into it.
If you did a Nandroid backup (the main point of CWM for me), you could try just restoring it. If you didn't, I'd try a wipe all settings and then reboot. You should be able to get back to a virgin state on the main OS that way.

I can get into it, the problem is i erase all data on my phone. Thanks in advance!

???
Is there any way i can get my phone back up and running restoring everything from clockworkmod?

I'm still confused what your problem is.
You say the phone won't boot, but then you talk about erased data.
What exactly did you do to the phone? What was the last few things you did before you "broke" it?
What happens when you try to boot the phone (ie., it's powered off and you press the power button)? How far in the boot process does it go?
If your problem is that the phone boots but all your data is gone, there's no way to get back unless it auto-syncs down from Google, or you used a backup program like Titanium, or you made a nandroid backup in CWM.
If you made a nandroid, you should just be able to boot into CWM, select backup and restore and then restore your backup.

This is what happened....
I tried to replace my fonts in system that are supposed to work on a different phone. Then when i tried to boot up the phone was stuck on the silver google logo. Now, after that i went into clock work recovery and formated everything in the mounts and storage menu. After reinstalling the phones boot img, my phone freezes at the google logo. I can still get into the clockworkmod recovery. I never backed it up, but tried to use a nandroid someone posted online but i get a md5 mismatch.
Again, thank you for all your help!

The Modaco rom(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883985) should work just fine. Put it on the USB storage then in Clockwork go to "Install from zip."

i have a problem almost like that but my rom manager open but wont even backup current rom or anything, my titanium back doesn't backup either. it said i could not acquire root privileges, this app will not work, please vertify that you rom is rooted and includes busybox, i have busybox and it's rooted. i guess this happen when i update the google update last night from rom manager. what should i do

Known issue. There is a thread in the Development section(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884499). The OTA "broke root."

Ouch. Now I understand.
In the future, always make a nandroid backup before messing around with things, easiest way to recover.
I see you're looking for help in this thread. Maybe they can help you.
You could also try flashing Doc's or Paul's roms also in that section.

Did you wipe/factory reset before attempting to install? I realize that you're pretty much wiped at the moment, but always best to start with that.

You've tried another NAND backup, besides the one that MD5 mismatched, yar? Be careful not to rename it, as that can cause the mismatch.

Nope
Nope i didnt try any...

Do i have to rename it to update.zip?

The custom rom? No, you just go into recovery, wipe/factory reset, install from SD card, then navigate to where you put the .zip on the SD card.
I see you did try the 2.3.1 NAND backup in the development section. Try downloading it again on your PC, unzip it, then place the new folder on the clockworkmod's backup folder on your SD card. Again, do not rename it.

Im trying it now.

Be warned that if you do get the NAND to restore, you may lose clockwork recovery. I know I did when I first tried to use it.
Don't panic though, because you can fastboot flash clockwork back on from the bootloader.

[q] freakin weird-no app install on any custom roms..

I. I ve flashed my phone more than 50 times. Last Rom I tried was x 8 arc, and before I had minicm.. all worked fine..suddenly withx 8arc rom it stopped installing apps and when I try to go to settings -applications, it shows me every app but they all say computing and never shows the size of them. I try installing any apps but the installation bar continues endlessly. I repaired the phone back to SE Original and that way I can install apps and it shows me the size of them. I root it again installed minicm, new froyo 0. 20 and it happens the same.... no app install and always "computing" on application manager.. its really weird and i ve tried erasing everything on xrecovery and still nothing... anyone???

why you flashing ROM 50 times?? This is not good for your phone, you shoud format data and system and also cache in xRecovery and than repair with SEUS or PC Companion to get fresh 2.1 and root your phone and put xRecovery and CHOOSE a good ROM for your requirements, so you do not need to flash your phone with different ROM and brick your phone...

Did you try a wipe dalvik cache form xrecovery and did not solve app install issue ?

Yes my friend, I tried everything, factory reset before and after installing ROM, wipe cache partition, wipe battery stats and the rest. I went back to SE 2 times in a few hours and I then can install apps.. tried minicm, new froyo and still can't install apps and in in application manager (settings) they never stop "computing" and I when I try installing apps the installation bar goes on forever. I'm really puzzled and I can't figure out any solution since I went back to SE and tried it all over with no results.. f **k!!!!

are you using BaseBand 015? You must use 015 because 006 is buggy on custom roms...if you don't know what an X8's baseband is, XDA's search bar is your friend

I have a problem with custom roms too, except cm7, thats the only one that works good for me. After i install any other rom, i cant acces internet for some reason... I have baseband 015.

thank you so much!!! I had the same problem and I couldn't find the solution! Formatting SD worked!

PLEASE HELP ! Phone bricked?

Hey guys.
my phone : E15i , baseband xx015, 2.1.1.A.0.6, rooted, xrecovery 1.1, tried out some custom roms by racht, works perfectly, currently using stock rom.
before rooting, papago! (gps app) works on my phone perfectly,
now, satellite search doesnt work, cannot locate my position, cannot navigate,
so i used xrecovery and did factory reset, format system, wipe cache, (idk what they do, i thought it is just clearing all stuffs in my phone)
now, the phone just stucks at "Sony Ericsson", is it bricked? solutions?

You should not Do "FORMAT SYSTEM".
Now you lost your firmware/Rom from your Phone. So its soft bricked.
Solution: Use PC Companion And open support Zone and repair software.

Or seus you can instal some other Rom,just transfer to you sd card(mount on xrecovery)

could u point me to the tut on how to install the rom?
does it still alow internet access?
are u able to get aps like googlemusic and netflix?

Hi, you must be root, and clockmod recovery must be install, i advice version 6.0.1.
Make a backup of corrent rom, just in case
Copy froyofusion zip file to sdcard, power off, click menu+call(green button)+power on, after reboot in recovery, choose install zip file, again a few minutes and then reboot.
froyo as internet acess, and you can acess the google market, never try to install the programs you said but i have install a lot others with no problem.
