SEUS and Companion problems

I've recently bricked my phone and it boots to the yellow exclamation of death, im subject to a monthly qouta by my ISP, so i cant download the flash tool(over 200 mbs), first of all i tried companion, i keep getting "download error please check your internet connection" i tried over 30 times but no luck......then tried SEUS, all i get in the end is "Your software is upto date" and ONLY the exit button (other ppl report that they do have a re-install button or restore to factory default button, i have none, is there a way to activate them?)........what should i do?
Edit: Pc companion's repair function used to worked before and i used it to unbrick my x10 a week ago

The reason you get the dowload error is because you flashed an X10i rom on your X10a. Use step 5 in the longer root method to flash an X10a rom and the dowload will work again.

i have an x10i, i am running the stock over the air upgrade, i never flashed any roms on it(upgraded the phone when i got it from companion from the SE servers), i did the 5second root method and the way i bricked it was i used the LCD density changer without busybox

just to clear something out, i got my phone unlocked from an independent store for ~$500, so im running STOCK fw 26, it has never been flashed by any rom, and the brick happened with when i tryed using the LCD density changer but didnt have busybox installed

Ok, you should still be able to us step 5 in the newbie guide to rooting thread.

Reinstalling 2.1

I'm running 2.2 beta 4 if I want to go back to 2.1 can I just copy the 2.1 rom to sd card and install from Xrecovery?

Just connect to the pc and do a reinstall or repair with SEUS

Download 1 of the custom 2.1 rom from xda.
Reboot in xrecocery.
Do a factory reset, a cache partition wipe and wipe dalvick cache.
Install the rom with install custom zip.

I've just gone from Cyanogen 2.2.1 back to SE 2.1. I tried SEUS but it didn't provide a recovery option, it just said that there was no update available - I'm guessing because it didn't recognise the ROM.
I ended up using Flash Tool to get one of the SE ROMs on it.
However, if you have PC Companion installed, I think you can do a recovery on the phone regardless of what ROM you're on (it says there's no update but there's a link to 'recover phone' or something like that).

Me ended with the same stuff

nope, i tried that some days ago and pc companion stopped at start of flashing procedure and told me, that there is no firmware available for me. i was running beta4.
then i flashed an old xrecovery backup, that i made after my update to bb .54, and bingo, no problem repairing with pc companion...obviously nowadays the SE update sw doesn't like any other roms...

Its strange that this didn't work for you. I upgraded to 2.2 a few weeks ago, but the instructions I followed decided they wanted to leave out a step. It ended up being a pretty critical step and it really screwed up my phone. So much so that I couldnt even get into the phone anymore. As a last effort, I tried PC Companion to do a repair and it worked. Cleared everything off and went back to the stock 2.1.

Scrub question, when re-flashing the x10, does it wipe contents of the microSD or just internal memory?

you have to charge battery. so first, try to charge it with a wall plug, not USB. Then, if you cannot, try charging your battery somewhere, a friend or a GSM service. Then with phone switched off, follow the instruction and flash ROM again by SEUS.
And then, use x8toolbox from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100
but please read first page carefully and follow instructions. So that it does not happen again.

Battery is fully charged now, What should I do next?
I cant flash rom by SEUS because when I connect device to pc cant recognized..

Use flashtool

Sorry, but I dont know how? XDA Premium App this apk is for android but I cant access to device.. sory but I've never done it before
I have to do it according to these guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
When I try using the flashtool tells me error: "Please install or reinstall device drivers from drivers folder"

Besides Sony Ericsson PC Companion, you have installed in computer Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) right?
if not, go to official page and download / install it .
and follow the steps. from what you are saying, I see that either you do not have SEUS or you do not have the corect drivers installed .
You can search on this forum as well, you may find numerous links.

what rom on a gt-s5363

Hi,
Ive got at present "S5363XXLK1_S5363O2ULK1_S5363XXLK1_HOME.tar.md5". Flashed to my gt-s5363 phone. At present its unrooted. I was only able to use "cwm blah_blah" before when I had the 2.3.5 official firmware. I think there is issues with o2 galaxy y. After getting my phone back to official upgrade 2.3.6 what can I flash without risking bricking it again? possibly odin 4.42 Ive just seen a video where someone as flashed a one file flashing. Is it ok or is there any more proven roms for my phone. At first it wouldnt root with the normal "update.zip" I had to use "Universal_GB_ROOT_v9.zip". I was able to back up and restore, but after trying the "[email protected]@xda.zip" it bricked it. Any advice please.
tg

Same here. My phone got bricked again =.= Maybe I missed a step. Just download a stock firmware.

Start off with Samsung Kies and restore the phone with it.

kies not working on s5363
Kies is proving a no-goer, what I did, was to update kies ,this put new drivers on pc, I then exited kies and ran odin 3.07 and downloaded a rom from tzar site. I ran a one file zip with "home" at the end. This unbricked my phone and installed offiicial 2.3.6 firmware. Then when I tried to connect kies with my phone it said "cannot retrieve information" ,,but Im not going to mess with kies if its being tempermental. I can still copy from phone with windows explorer.
