Try to reflash the rom you was flashing in the first place.
Mayb it is locked, cause it needs a serten file from that rom.
Have you tried to hard reset it?
Fully charged it
And try to enter the bootloader to flash again?

try agent47´s task29 that might help
Im trying atm...so far its been 10mins and its stucked at 0%....i cant flash anything =(
Edit... it Gave me update Error 262
are you able to enter the bootloader/tricolour screen ? if so remove sd card.
now on your PC use "X1_RUU_ROM_UpdateUtility" with any ROM image (remember to rename rom img to ruu_signed.nbh), follow steps on ROMUpdateUtility, you will be asked to connect phone (bootloader screen) on 2nd step.
I hope it helps
I Hope this help you!
In one occasion I suffered a similar problem and the issue was that the Memory Card was damaged, and when the Phone Start and tried to read this it "stuck" reading this.
Try to start the phone without the memory to see if this work.
Regards.

Likewise with stock Roms
Mtty...didn't do ****!!!! yet it i got the log like if went trough alot and ****....
lolSEUS Updater get stuck at 15% after updating the bootloader.
Help?
I don't know if this topic is covered but I could not find and exact thread for this.
I used an HTC Pure on AT&T for some time and I flashed several ROMs as they were updated on XDA. I recently switched to Verizon and HTC Incredible and wanted to try and sell my Pure. What I did not do before I ported my number to Verizon was reset my phone. Now that the existing SIM card is invalid, I tried flashing the phone without it to the original AT&T ROM for Pure. Apparently there were some issues and the flash did not complete. I tried flashing it to cooked ROM (Energy) but still the flash did not complete.
The flash starts properly and then midway the phone restarts and I get a message saying that the update was not successful and that I should try again. Same thing happens when I try again. This message shows up on the boot screen (tri-colored screen). I have tried flashing via the SD card and CustomRUU. The official ROM comes as an .exe and I run is on my computer and the same thing happens. Sometimes it just keeps repeating the update process on its own erroring out every time before restarting the update process (on its own).
I don't understand any of this so I turn to you guys. Please let me know how I can fix this, if I even can.
Flashing w/o the SIM should not be an issue.
At what point during the boot process does it freeze? On the HTC Startup animation or bootscreen?
It perplexes me that the flash doesn't complete.
I am going to suggest following;
1. Take out SIM and SD Card and battery.
2. Replace battery and perform hard reset.
3. Take your stock ROM .exe, right click and extract to a folder on your PC.
4. Download the enclosed Topaz Task29 and unzip to your PC.
5. Replace the .nbh file in the Topaz Task29 folder with the RUU_Signed.nbh file from your stock ROM.
6. Go into Bootloader mode while connected to PC and wait for USB to show on the bootloader screen.
7. Run Task29.
If you are trying this from a Vista or Win7 machine, I suggest trying to find one running XP. Also make sure your battery has 50% or greater charge and turn off all AVs and hibernate and\or screensavers.
Hope this helps.
hey thanks ... i'll try that tonight and update here ... the flash process never freezes actually ... what happens is that the flash does not complete in some cases and restarts my phone .. goes to the bootloader screen and when it says either SERIAL or USB ... it gives the error message above ...
of course there was a time in this whole process when i did get the flash to complete ... at that time the boot process froze at the HTC screen ...

What SPL are you currently on? (baardya)
Didn't get a chance to try Bruce's solution. Will do that tomorrow.
I have 2.51 ... (cant be sure of the number, but i have the one higher than 1.83)
'Incredible'ly, Baardya
I performed the steps mentioned and flash was completed successfully. But on the restart, the phone freezes at the AT&T World Phone screen. It does not move ahead. Any ideas?

that happened to me a while back, try hard-reset, remove sd and sim, flash again with RUU, hard reset once more, replace cards.
Also try this cab (i know I had to use it at one point, might have been for hspl though), forget exactly what it does, but Bruce might know.
After i wrote the above message, I tried to flash the official ROM again, without the steps mentioned by Bruce (just directly) amd I believe it worked.
Thanks again.

please, can u help me with this problem? thanks a lot, and sorry for my english, is not perfect.
hi there mate, Im no expert but I had the same problem.im no expert and you may have to wait for expert advice,....but......
I reformatted the memory card with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 5.2 it reformatted the card slowly, you can search the forums for" format card"and download a proper formatting programme.
I also had problems with the actual download once, i kept having the no image error come up over and over, so i re downloaded the file and it worked ,....also when they say take the battery out and wait,...do it for 10 secs.

hm, not sure if I'm 100% with you, but lets try:
the output you describe (SPL-0.78.0000) clearly shows that you are still on the latest stock spl, which you either got by factory default or through one of your later updates through SEUS (depending on how old your phone is)
this (stock spl) automatically prevents flashing of customizes roms (like the mentioned Energy rom), all you can flash with that are stock roms
there is the hard-spl thread concerning this by olinex which you most probably read and tried
so as I understand it you failed at flashing the hard-spl, then tried to run SEUS which failed as well and now you cannot even start your phone?
after failing at SEUS did you retry to run the SE update utility? it sometimes fails before successfully completing
did you try putting a stock rom on your sd card and flashing this (that would delete personal items and settings not backed up)?
how did you try flashing hard-spl? synching your phone with your pc and launching from there?
Best, DK
hi,
thanks for your post, and for trying to help. i should mention that i have never sync the phone with pc, i never need this. and i tried to hard spl the phone, but also gives error, it shut down. from then i tried several tims to do the update with the sony-ericsson application, it check's the phone and said that i have the latest software, but if there is any problem, try reinstaling the software. i push the reinstall button, it starts reinstalling, but the bar goes between 10 to 25, other time even 60 %, and then gives the communication error, and sais to try again.
i am no expert, this is the first time i try to do this on a phone, so if there is anyone who is so kind to explain step by stpe what i have to do, i shoul thanks him verry much.
So you want to install custom ROM to your phone? you need hardSPL first
If you have it hardSPL it will show 0.7.2.ollinex
then you just flash it. Try google how to hardSPL and FLash
simple mechanism,
X1 (Stock ROM and Stock SPL) -> hard SPL -> X1 (Stock ROM + hardSPL) -> Flash custom ROM (Energy ROM) -> X1 (hard SPL + Custom ROM)
WHY should Hard SPL?
because as DK explained above, SPL is the bios of your X1 and won't accept any ROM beside Stock ROM. so to have your X1, you need to change by doing Hard SPL, it will make your X1 accept any kind of ROM, stock or customed.
is it better to upgrade Stock ROM and Stock SPL to install applications? sorry, i'm just new in SE phone specially x1, so many things to learn here..

They're both the same. Applications will install fine on a stock rom as well as a custom rom, there's NO difference. Think of it as jailbreaking an iPod Touch or iPhone, they can still install apps from the app store with no problems, NOTHING is changed.
In fact, think of it as a car. An normal car uses petrol. A car with a modified engine ALSO uses petrol. So there's no difference.
The difference between a stock and custom rom however, is huge. A custom rom is basically a stock rom, but modified. Custom roms gives you more customizability, just like jailbreaking an iDevice. Most of the custom roms run more efficiently, and a lot faster than a stock rom.
It's NOT hard to install a custom rom, you just have to read the guides properly and follow the simple steps. It's worth every bit of your time. Just follow the 8 steps here to install hardSPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
and here if you want video tutorials:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497511
And btw, the SPL thing is just the same as a jailbreak. It's a hack basically. Installing hardSPL will jailbreak your device so that you can install custom roms on it, it's basically "unlocking" the device so you can do whatever you want with it.
So..i finally got mtty working. I don't really know how but i got it working despite the code 10 error while installing.But i decided to install the rom thorugh custom RUU after the task 29 format. So i did everything the mtty tutorial said but now, i can't flash the custom ruu.Whenever I try, it gives me 240 error. I cannot access my internal storage, activesync will not recognize my phone. I cannot boot into anything it gets blocked at the Touch Diamond screen. Did a hard reset..nothing worked. Please help me with a solution! i just want to flash a rom onto it so i can use it. Momentarily I can't do nothing with it...
EDIT : GOT IT! I had to reinstall the official rom back. after that everything back to normal.
I installed CWM recovery from within ROM Manager, rebooted into recovery, made a backup of my stock rooted ROM, then tried to install Promethius Thrill Edition from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960787
It failed, giving me an error status (0), i tried to reboot the device, and it sits at the LG logo and does not move... I tried to restore my stock rom, and when it reboots, it does the same thing....
Someone PLEASE help me asap... I run my own business and without my phone I cannot make money....

I have also tried to do a data/factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik cache, etc. Still no luck...
Ok so here is what i did step by step... I rooted the phone using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412490
After I rooted it, I tried installing CWR using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365876
This did not work for some reason, so i installed ROM Manager from the play store and let it install CWR
I downloaded this to my external SD:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960787
I rebooted into CWR and chose to install zip from SD, chose my external SD, and chose Promethius Rom.. It went throught it's thing, then told me it failed, probably a bad download on my part due to crappy network at the time...
I then said screw it and rebooted the system and was going to just stay with stock, but now it's stuck at the LG screen. I've tried factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik cache, etc. and so far nothings working. I am now going to attempt to re-download Promethius Rom and put it on my SD card and try to install it with a better/new download. I will report back if no one has any other ideas for me to try.....
Just tried a new download of Promethius Rom and it did not work. Going to download a different Rom to try i guess... I have no other ideas and so far no help..
Ok I have tried NUMEROUS things now. I know I am going to need to use this LG Flash Tool some how, but it's been a huge fight trying to get it to work... I hold volume up, plug in the usb, and in device manager it keeps just coming up with "Unknown device" So I unplug it and try again while holding volume up... Same thing.. Every once in a blue moon it'll pop up with something else, but almost never lasts more than a split second. IDK wtf to do, and I desperately need my phone.....

I tried following this early this morning before work but kept running into problems when it came time to connect the phone, install the OP driver, etc. I am going to try again very shortly. I'll let you know how it goes.
It is fiddly to install the drivers but once it is done, it is done...

I got to the point where it goes through the flasher but it goes through alot of stuff but then fails. I'll give you my exact process...
Installed the OMAP Flash Installer
Installed LG Mobile United Drivers
Installed and setup the Flash Installer v1.1
Opened device manager, held the volume up button on phone (with battery, SIM, and SD removed) and inserted SYNC cable into phone
Caught the OMAP device in device manager, and installed omap_winusb.inf
Changed com port to port 41 on the LGE Mobile USB Serial Port
Setup FlashTool with the LGP920_110622.dll and 28bRTbig_AP.bin
Hit start on the flash tool. Plugged in the SYNC cable, and inserted the battery in the phone, waited for flash tool to start.
Here is what flash tool shows...
NO READ PID
RomBinary Download Start
28brtbig_cp.fls
PSI RAM writing start
Trying to communicate with IFX modem
Confirm IFX communication
PSI RAM writing end
Start PSI RAM
EBL writing start

At this point, i have no clue what else to do....
When trying to flash, do you see "S/W" on the phone screen with Korean writing?
