i falowed this tutorial

1. After the system restarts, go to the folder where u extract FlashTool and double-click X10flash.bat. Type 1 and press 'enter'.

2. Now while your X10 Mini Pro is still off, press the 'back button'(the one on the right most) and hold.

3. Need to do this fast cuz sometimes your PC Companion will interrupt.

4. While holding the back button on your phone, plug in your USB cable, and press enter on the dos prompt from X10flash.bat

5. The flashing will start running. If there's error, repeat from 11 (no need to restart PC). PC Companion sometimes interrupt the process before X10flash.bat starts its process.

6. The flashing process takes a while and when its done your will see a message saying that its completed.

7. Restart your phone.

after 2:30 hours i have this

attachements

i press the power button but nothing

vibrate and that's all

what should i do ??:(:(:(

is there a 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware for xperia mini pro?

I have a slow internet connection, and its quite a mess updating using SEUS or PC.

Hope someone can put me in a right direction here. :o
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] clau.nicusor88:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] litemint:
Had you tried installing Gordons Gate or Seus?

Maybe you havent installed the drivers.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] codenamezero:
How do you use FlashTool to re-flash the phone if i am already stuck at bootloop? I downloaded the UK firmware, but doesn't look like the FlashTool let me select it, or even recognize zipped file or extracted files.

I am trying to re-flash my phone, but so far SEUS doesn't do it, it says i already have the latest firmware and then exit. Can't even force flash.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] fs9:
I may have run into some trouble here.

While rooting, my computer had a power problem and the routine had no time to finish. Since that, the phone (running stock unbranded BR U20i, 2.1.1.A.0.6) is behaving very strangely. No rooting attempts succeed, adb shell renders a permission denied (13) error and Flashtool complains about the accept unknown sources option to be inactive, even though it is selected. The cherry being it has unstable wifi connectivity and radio is simply not working since the incident. The phone boots but essentially does nothing.

Worse that that is the fact I cannot even send it to be flashed with professional equipment since the SuperUser icon remains on the menu. The service center won't repair a rooted (or attempted root, for that matter) unit.

Anybody has any idea that could save the day? Greatly appreciated. I will even send a thank you postcard from my beautiful Salvador (BRA) to the one who spares me from the utterly big one-hour long complaint from my wife if she finds out I broke my phone (again) :mrgreen:

Update: the sh error seems to be related to a faulty busybox implementation, but stericson's installer does not fix it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ciribaski:
maybe this is the wrong place for this question....:)

try the repair option with seus

and start from scratch....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] fs9:
Sorry, it indeed might be the wrong topic. Anyway, I have depleted my resources before posting. That includes exhaustively trying to repair through SEUS. It fails with no explanation whatsoever.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ciribaski:
sorry,

I think you have not tried with seus...

search here (first and second post)

guides

hope this help
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] fs9:
Well, thank you for helping, but... literally nothing worked. I have tried every single procedure, method, everything I could find at XDA. The failed rooting must have really messed the phone up, 'cause nothing worked. As a last resort, I bought some credits from DaVinci team and their software succesfully flashed my phone. It's branded right now, but it's working.

Help needed

Hi all,

I'm trying to unbrick my U20i - X10 mini pro.

I've installed flashtool, but i can't load/select the firmware.

I've downloaded the NL and UK version from the first post.

I got a zip and a rar archive. Extracted them in /flashtool/firmwares/ but nothing. Tried folders, didn't work. I think I need a ftf file. i renamed the zip and rar, but it didn't work.

I tried flashtool 0.6.7.0 and 0.5.3.0 (on XP pc)

When I plug in my device, flashtool says:

-Device Connected in flash mode

-Device disconnected

-Device connected with USB debugging off

Please help.

Multiupload links not working.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ehrw:
Yeah links down. Sucks, trying to help a friend here. Is there someone that happens to have the nordic version available?

Please upload it somewhere and link it!

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jeditribble:
It would be really great if someone could provide updated links in the first post! I'm trying to unbrick my phone and can't find the stock ROM anywhere.

The link for the French stock ROM seems to be the only one that is working, so I am trying to flash that now ... but not sure what the results will be!

Of course it's also possible that I'm having a hardware problem. The phone won't boot up; the only thing that happens is that my screen lights up for a moment and then goes dark again. SEUS and PC Companion run properly, but it doesn't seem to make a difference ...

If anyone has got suggestions, I would be very grateful.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ehrw:
Btw what differs from the versions? Can I flash the france version and then just use morelocale2 to switch to swedish? Enlighten me please :>
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jeditribble:
Well, I was getting desperate so I installed the French version. Still nothing happened, so I used the update tool again (thinking it would revert to the standard UK one); in the end the problem turned out to be a hardware fault. Just got the phone back, and the keyboard is now French (q and a are mixed up, as are z and w), while the text is in English. I'm planning to try and update to 2.3 custom ROM anyway, so I'm hoping this will take care of the keyboard also. Will keep you updated, but just to let you know to be a bit careful.

Does no one have a UK stock rom that they can post?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] odiad:
Hi all,

because of broken links - can anybody upload german or english ROM. Would be nice.

Thanks in advance, Regards Odiad
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LucasBrazil1984:
Where can I get the FTF files? The french rom (only link that's working) is a .rar file.

That's what I want to do. But as far as I can tell (correct me if I'm wrong, I've spent a day searching for one) every link to stock firmware is down. I can't find a working link to a stock firmware. Just to clarify, I have an x10 mini pro, u20i.

got the ftf file but dont know a good upload site so hope i didnt damage the ftf when i compressed it to a rar file. try to see if it works out for you.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Hopper8:
Thanks! So in theory, should flashing the default kernel get it booting again? I thought I would have to flash a whole firmware. Happy to be told I'm wrong ;)

hey guys thanks for putting together the flashtool.

is this exclusively for u20i? or can I use this on my u20a? will I lose 3g in the US?

>> update. scoured this and some other threads. this is a generic world universal baseband rom. I'm going to give it a whirl. let y'all know how it goes. (silly thing is... I'm on tmobile -- looking to switch to att soon... so I won't really be able to tell you guys if 3g works or not, but based on people's experience with the x10 and generic world universal baseband roms, should be no problem)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ayewhy:
Couldn't wait any longer, tried this method and it worked flawlessly.

Going to fix the keyboard to UK English now... I will throw up a how-to for noobs on my blog today/tomorrow.

Just in case anybody is wondering, after the flashing completes and you press any key to exit you can pull the USB cable out and turn it on. Once booted up you will be prompted to choose language and you can select English (UK) :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mehmehmen:
Binary mate that new flashtool was fine. Was just matter of uac off on the Vista machine and was sweet. Post the new tool it was perfect. Thanks

Meh...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pabling19:
turn off your phone, disconnect the usb cable from your phone but keep it connected to the computor, wait 5 seconds. When the flashtool asks you to plug in the phone in flash mode, hold the back key while inserting the usb cable to your phone. you phone led should light up in green and the flashing will begin
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Skeldave:
New flash tool worked perfectly for me, Thanks!

Note to others: Mine took quite a while to boot up, just wait, it will happen (Unless you selected 'no' on the userdata part)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Excyis:
Does it always take a long time to flash it?

Like I have it now, and it's taken an hour just to work through a 15 MB file... and it skipped through dsp1.sin since it didn't find. I wonder if it will be completely working flash or not....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Creutz:
For me it took about a little more than 5min maybe. It skipped the dsp1.sin here aswell. My girlfriend hasn't tested it so much but the first impression is that it works really good!

Would also take the opportunity to say thank you to the developer of this marvelous tool!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bin4ry:
No worry about dsp1.sin. There is no in the update!

The output is because the tool is for every Xperia and so it just drops the message that dsp1.sin is not found, but thats normal.

Any luck with the keyboard?

Still not sure on how to do it but want to do it lol
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dropedout:
Big Thanks

Bricked my phone by doing,

inside Terminal Emulator:

# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system

# chmod 666 /system/app

# chmod 666 /system/app/*.apk

# rm -r californiagoldrush.apk

Homescreen and so now more active afterwards. Big chrash with reboot loop. Your Flasher and the firmware restored my phone.

Hope to found a way to save remove unnecessary apps, if not i will do the restore again.

THANKS. Will donate to u. Cheers :rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spiderman_anhvu:
As I've read in another thread, They said that you have to root this rom and replace some system files to change the keyboard layout rather than just changing you location to UK in setup wizard screen. Any idea?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Yifei:
I guess it will work but may lack support of 3G. I have seen the difference between U20a and U20i, they support different 3G modes. And you can search the forum. I remember there was a post about changing from U20a to U20i, some guy did this by editing build.prog. Now we can't do this as SE upgrade SEUS. But you can try it, many people successed to upgrade using this tool and even downgrade to 1.6.

For me, I will wait the U20a version. Because 3G is important to me.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] oslons:
Awesome thanx. Finally managed to get backup downloaded as well. Now for the flask and upgrade. Any special steps to perform or is it just run the bat file?

Is the SG firmware gonna be any better for UK users other than fixing the keyboard issue?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Rich_RH:
I would say so cause it fixes the keyboard issue that Nordic has out of the box rather than having to root your phone and changing files ect. which didnt work for me and when i did get it working my phone kept getting in a boot cycle.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] neo6776:
Ah ok.

Just i was told another simple way of fixing the keyboard by just editing the text file which worked a charm.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9006669&postcount=58

Was just wondering if there was any other reasons to do it. Haven't had any issues calling or texting people with the nordic rom but haven't seen a 3g or HSDPA signal yet.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ayewhy:
Well the thing is, have you tried disabling the language bar across the bottom of the screen when you slide phone in to qwerty keyboard mode? If you disable that bar from settings so that it doesn't appear then the keyboard loses the qwerty-en settings and reverts back to Nordic! although there is a fix for that too... but I don't quite fancy having to redo that over and over after new updates :) do you?
