How bricked your phone is? Bootloop or complete brick.
You can try using sony pc companion to repair phone.
Also worth trying is flashtool and standard firmware tft via flashmode.

Did you flash the CM9 kernel?

I bet it's Bootloop.Because he had forgotten to flash the kernel,cause of it's newbie
experience.Flash the correct kernel and it'll be alright.

Hi,
i too need help unbricking
i initially forgot to flash the kernel but thx to my efforts unbricking i cant flash a new kernel (fastboot says not rooted)
I used Flashtool to flash LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42.ftf on the phone which did work but before i was "just" stuck at Sony Logo (Text only) and usb connection was permanent. Now it looks like its rebooting every ~20 sec logo disappears and appers a few secs later. The USB Connection is only present for about 1-2sec then it disconnects again.
Fastboot & Flash mode work.
CWM was installed (dunno if the IMG overwrote it.)
Somebody an idea how to get it running again?
Any Help is appreciated

You dont need root to fastboot. Just flash a kernel or install the orginal frimware

Okay....
i dont know WHY but i was able to flash the kernel now. dunno why it before always said error not rooted.
I'm flashing new rom now will edit in few minutes
a big THX to you

Help/Ideas on Unbricking my X8 please

i know there are threads on unbricking i have 64 bit windows 7 laptop and seus and pc companion are not working to fix the boot loop on my phone.
i heard of flash tool and all that but it sounds complicated because in the boot loop i cant access the phone to add rom and bin files
.is there any simple solution as in can i do something with the x8 recovery mode
how do you mean, that seus not working?
do you reach the xrecovery? flash tool isnt complicated, just download flashtool and rom, and paste rom in flashtools firmware dir, and press on flash. not a big deal.
thx aerosmith ,seus isnt working because its incompatible then it says update failed and cant install files some other times.is flashtool easy.what did you mean to copy the files somewhere.i cant access the android file system because of this boot loop problem i have.do i put phone into recovery and then click flash on the flash tool
xrecovery thats the custom recovery console ,no i dont have that its the blank screen recovery mode
nvm this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
look at this thread. download flashtool to your pc.
unpack.
Download 2.1 generic firmware.
copy this firmware to flashtool firmware folder, and flash it.

the first one,(X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf), just try to flash the rom, you doesnt need the baseband now.
lol that seems less confusing the way you put it.
dont look at the basebands. i took one look at the page and its confussing
because i dont have any of those numbers at the back of my phone and
it mentions loss of signal strength and even more booyt loops
. promise : kinda last question what is basebands for and do i need them for flashtool and how to find out the baseband

i dont have any of those numbers too, but ist working. There are everything you need to repair your phone, Just download flasher and rom, and flash it. I know what i am talking. you dont need it. i think the X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf rom has the latest baseband, but if its not, it doesnt matter now, it just an upgrade. if you flash the rom, and your phone starts, you can watch the baseband, and flash it later.
have you done this before what does this rom do as in how does it differ from the pre installed experia rom. so the rom has the baseband in it.i think you can add the baseband later.
im downloading the rom now ill post if it works.
yes, ive done this before. this is a generic factory sony ericsson rom, this is the same rom that was on your phone when you bought it. the rom has a baseband, its 100%.
i f***** give up .talkng about bad luck got this phone after three days and its bricked by its own fault not from rooting also today my pc comppanion and se update dont work so im trying flasher and guess what the five mirrors for the firmware dont work even in premium link generators
what other rom image is good besides X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf
because every download i try it gets stuck on 21 mb because of the firefox default download manager idk
i downloaded it 2 days before, and it worked, then try the 2.1 russian rom.
Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?y3pldh7nd1kdb58
It's from baseband thread folder, I've never tried it, but it might work.
ive tried it before, Its working.
good news.
i got the phone unbricked with the pc companion after 3 hours on a new laptop.with the pc companion it made the phone worse with an erorr hazard message instead of the boot loop.
so after 20 attempts the pc companion started updating through recovery mode.
whats an easy way to get xrecovery on the phone and does the update have the app2sd feature because thats what i think messed up the phone with the phones being installed on the phone partition.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571
As for app2sd - flash some custom ROM in xrecovery, they all have app2sd installed by default I use miniCM and it works perfectly
Thanx graveir.wasn't that your post on unbricking x8 .excellent thread
for me, flash it using PCCompanion, easiest way i think, just hold the back button and wait..
PS: if you already have the 2.1 firmware

Stuck At Sony Ericcson Screen! HELP! X10a

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?

Possible Solutions :
(Remember there'll be data loss using these solutions so always try to keep a backup)
1. If you can still enter into Recovery-Mode
(a). Try to clear Data & Cache then check.
(b). Try Installing a Custom ROM using CWM(ClockWorkMod Recovery) & check.
(For Custom ROM & CWM Visit here.)
2. If Recovery-Mode didn't helped Enter into Download-Mode & flash an odin supported stock rom(using ODIN 1.84 or 1.85) from Doky73's Thread(Flashing Guide in 2nd post).

galaxy y bricked
i bricked my sgy last 3 weeks.
here's what i did.
-installed creedsix rom.
-installed UOT kitchen Themes.
-wipe data
problem
-stuck in bootlogo
-softbricked.
-cant go to recovery mode
-flashed too many times, still stuck in bootloop
i flashed at least 20 times, with different firmwares.
but still no luck, still boot lop.
my professor said something about secondary bootloader that might help. but i had definitely no idea what it is.
i asked some techies on the mall, and they said that this phone must undergo the JTAG process. but it cost $20.
help me. thanks.

can you go to download mode??
(try pressing volume down+ home button + power button all at the same time)
if it still can, then your SGY is still good
go to this ---> thread
and just flash your country's firmware
From where you got the firmwares.... How you flashed...
Ever tried re partitioning.... Ever flashed boot loader....
For info... Jtag or boundary-scan is used for testing & servicing high technology electronic boards...

this one will a little bit off topic...what is creedsix?is it a rom for SGY?
if the phone still can boot that means everything is fine. pull out the battery, wait 10 seconds, reinsert the battery, do three magic combo button, you'll enter recovery mode. don't worry about our bootloader. our bootloader is stored in different partition thus installing any custom rom won't affect our bootloader. as far as i know, there is only one person who have messed up with bootloader and got an ultimate hard brick.

a hard brick is when our device doesn't respond to power button.
the guy that I've mentioned above is doky73. he accidentally flash a bootloader for sgs2 into his sgy. last time he said that he send his sgy to samsung service center and buy a new one. I'm not sure if samsung has revived his sgy.
edit: I didn't to offend him but I think I've mispelled doky's username. edited.

whatever It may be... You should never mess up with bootloaders, if you don't actually know what's there significance...
Brief description on android starting process :
pbl(primary boot loader "boot.bin") executes first and then it executes sbl ...
Sbl(secondary boot loader "sbl.bin") is responsible for responding to combos...download mode.. Intercepting odin commands..... booting system...booting kernel.... Charging your battery while switch off... Etc etc
Harm anyone of them... And Your phone goes into lifetime hibernation, Hard-bricked.

Hi to all, it's only my second post but i have a major problem with my samsung s-5360. it's won't boot anymore, but it can enter cmw and recovery. This is what i did wrong i believe. At first i installed morocs 1.8 kernel on creed fusion version 3.1 and it wouldn't boot anymore, so i ended up using a back-up i made before with cmw. And it worked well and phone was booting again and was on stock again. ( because back-up was made with stock-version obviously )
Then i thought: well let's try repensis noob version. And installed it and there was also an update 2 and installed it over it as well before booting the os, maybe this is what i did wrong dunno .. But afterwards it didn't boot anymore and whatever i tried, restoring one of the 3 images i made, or using one of the roms posted here like Creed fusion 3.1 rom or Aurora 2 nor Chobits didn't work.
I also tried reverting to stock with odin 1.85 but when i connected my phone via usb to the pc, odin didn't see my phone. ( after selecting the 3 tar files in odin ) Maybe i'm doing wrong something there.
What i also have to add is that when doing factory wipe in recovery it says formatted E: but unable to format E:\dev10 and dev11. clearing cache is no problem and also cleared dalvik cache. Can you please help me out ? I know, it sounds very noobish but well, i have to face it because can't do it myself without help anymore it seems ... Thanx a lot in advance.
please make sure that you've installed the driver and plug the usb to computer only on download mode when flash with odin. dev10 and dev11 are the partition for data and cache. that error means something was wrong with your recovery mode. you'll need to install a fresh stock rom with odin.

I was playing with different revisions of SBLs because on SGS2 some old SBL gives the possibility to reset custom bin counter via JIG. At a given point accidentally browsed SGS2 bootloader instead of SGY one...
But I did perfect job, the service center wasn't able to detect the cause of bricking, but they recovered my phone under warranty. (I think they're not reading this forum )

Xperia Arc S problem after rooting

Hello there, I have rooted my Arc S with this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884958&highlight=wont+boot
After rebooting it stocked on Sony logo, now I can do anything more, It turn on it selfs, I cant shut down. The pc doesnt recognize it so cant flash other one which works...
Is there any other solution please help me. After couples of times trying to connect with PC, I have took of the battery and then none signal from the phone (Before it start it self). But when I try to turn it to recovery mode or connect with pc again the same problem, vibrate and stocked on Sony Logo.
Please anyone help. Will pay for it.
Just re flash some firmware through PC? I assume you've tried flash tool and that you're not using something else? Short if that there is also a Sony recovery program you could try...
Use Flashtool to recover.
ROMs are not for rooting, my friend. You also need to have custom kernel (for some of the ROMs), if you wish to install custom firmware/ROM.
You can use SEUS to flash the latest firmware to your phone provided you did not unlock bootloader. You can relock the bootloader if you have unlocked it earlier though...

551ml Bricked after updating to new offical MM build. (help pls)

Hello guys, I noticed this morning that MM was officially released today. I followed the steps on to update my phone. I downloaded the rom for 551ml put it on my root of my internal storage, after that a pop up showed that there was a system update. I did the update and now my phone wont turn on now. It vibes twice and nothing comes on the screen. I have no idea how to fix it. I was on the latest firmware that system update would give me (184). If someone isn't busy could they possibly help me out. thx..

I think mm system.img boot.img splashcreen.img need mm bootloder to run and at the moment twrp doesnt work with it, if you install mm via twrp you only updating these img and bootloader still lp that causes your phone cant boot. (Correct me if im wrong)
So now you need xfstk downloader to recover your fastboot and then flash .194 raw firmware using asus flash tool then adb sideload mm firmware from stock .194 recovery, theres guide how to do that in here but im forget where
Sorry my english are bad too..

I used XFSTK to upload firmware etc... but after upload firmware, the phone will vibrate twice and download of OS will not start... the soft will try 20 attemps to connect with the phone and the OS part can't be download on the phone... I'm stick at this point.
Hello guys, i'm trying to unbrick my phone, i'm following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenf...l-usb-t3405840 but when i get to the end of te install of intelSoC my device is detected as Moorefield for like 4-5 seconds and then it disappears. I've been trying to solve this for like 4 hours now, a little help would be much appreciated.

I did this morning and it worked. Im on 6.0.1 now, I guess the cause of my brick was that I had TWRP installed. Now I know next time to remove it before updating lol.

If you don't need to use twrp everyday (maybe just a backup from time to time) you'd better keep stock recovery and whenever you need something from twrp, you just boot into it without flashing with the usual "fastboot boot twrp.img" command. That way if you ever upgrade again you don't have to remember whether you removed twrp before. But that's just an opinion, since if done that way, you'd need to have yor phione hooked to a computer to get into twrp, an that's not always possible.
thanks
