Volume Buttons stopped working! - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am asking for advice!
I have searched the forum, but havent found any solution yet. Volume Buttons of my Xperia stopped working (as well as some keyboard buttons, for example I cannot typ "t", "i".. and several others.. !!). So I need to get back stock rom for warranty reasons, but I cant, cause I am not able to get into the RAINBOW SCREEN..
Is there any other possible way how to get the rainbow screen or how to flash stock rom without that...
What about the PC program that shows you mobile screen on your PC..? Can this program run the rainbow screen?
Thanks for any help!!

This is quite bad bro... Don't think you can do anything about it with PC software. There is a flashing method using an image on MicroSD card but I think it also requires you to do the Volume-down-press. Have you tried Hardreset through Windows Mobile? (Settings -> Clear Storage) I don't think this will help, though... But why not try it.

Flash it using usb connection with you PC
Your phone will automaticaly go to the three colors screen during the process

2firegall!!: i did hard reset, but it did not help :-/
2mopral: ok, thanks, I flash the stock rom through PC. but could you tell me how to that? I flashed through PC for example Touch-ITs' roms - but they are provided with certain program to be run directly on PC (RUU something.exe...). but what shell i do with stock rom, that is xxx.nbh or xxx.image :-D?? sorry i am not that experianced!
once again, THANKSSSS!

Sorry, I should have done a better search ! Now I have found the Rom Update Utility - hope that this flashes the stock rom into my Xperia through PC...

Did the rom update help? I have the same probleme.

NO! :-/ It did not help, I am going to SE Service today, hope they fix it soon, cause I can write messages without hardware keyboard (I am lazy to use on-screen keyboard with stylus).. The volume buttons still dont work, and I am sure, these issues are covered by guarantee ..

How to Flash in BootLoader

I have a stuck image on my 8125. The phone "boots" but only shows a white screen, and is unusable.
The "a2sd all" restore option mentioned in the forums doesnt work for me. I have read on several forums that I should be able to reflash the OS from the bootloader, though I cant find any instructions on how to do this
Could someone point me in the right direction for how to flash an OS VIA bootloader?
Thx
1. Get the phone to bootloader (tree color mode) - I think by soft resetting and pressing the camera button at the same time
2. Connect it to the computer (Windows XP) with a USB cable
3. You will notice "USB" written in a lower corner of the phone (this means it is connected)
4. Now you can flash your provider's ROM without any problems
I am not sure whether the bootloader flashing is possible from Windows Vista.
You must flash normally (in bootloader you cannot use either shelltools or SoftSPL - so use your provider's ROM).
Mirek
Mirek - not to be totally ignorant, but the step 4 is what I'm having problems with .... where can I find either a providers ROM, or something that I can actually use while in bootloader mode?
Thanks!
NM ... Found it!
For anyone reading this .... You can get the provider ROM for the 8125 from HTCAmerica here: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8125/software-downloads.html
Thanks for your help!

WHAT did you downgrade from?

How's your battery?

IPL/SPL 2.08? Does that exist? Do you mean 3.08?
Are you sure your device is a G3? Or you killed it when flashing Button's ROM?

My htc starts up, but freeze during boot up

First of all i do not know where to post this. I have had a HTC wizard for over a year now. it has been working fine after cooking up wm6 and installing it for 6 months. today when i restartet the phone pulling the battery out and inserting it, the phone starts up, then the blue screen comes and shows ispl etc, then windows image shows, there it stops. i do not know what to do. It has been a while since i did pocket pc modding now, and i have forgotten all about it.

Maybe something crashed the OS software.
Hope you have a system backup, or at least PIM backup using ActiveSync because what you need now is a hard reset.
Punching the reset hole (next to IR window) while holding CommManager+VoiceDial, then press "Dial" as prompted.
how do i hard reset my dash/s620?
i have tried hard reset
i have hard reset the phone. i do not have any backup in active sync. and i dont think that matters. because my phone does not connect to activesync since it does not start up. and in the three colored boot mode the phone is not detected by active sync. when i hard reset the phone it just came to the same point and freezed
If you didn't touch the ROM for long time, then it is probably a hardware failure...

READ YOUR PHONE MANUAL, and THIS IS NOT DASH FORUM.
hard to believe
First off, thanks for fast responses.
It cant be hardware(Not as a total theory of course) or likely not, because phone was not touched by water, shock, bumb fire or anything. it laid on my desk, worked, laid on my dask more, freezed. and it has been working for 6 months with wm6. is there anyway i can flash something into it. without activesync, but in the three colored boot mode?
Get into bootloader, plug in your usb cord and give it a minute...ON THE TRI-COLORED SCREEN do you see in the bottom corner "USB"??? If yes, you are OK. Get a stock rom such as the Tmo 2.26 and flash that. If you do not see "USB" in the bottom corner then as far as I know, you are fukd.
For more info on issues, read the linky in my siggy. There is valuable info there that may help with other ways to flash a rom.
Good luck.
i see usb
thanks, guess i am not fked then
Only problem is i have forgotten all about this now, and that i am sorry for.
But i have to ask you, as from norway wich stock rom to choose, what is stock rom, and when you say bootloader, is that an expression for the three colored screen or is that a program, that can flash in three colored screen? Thanks, i do not expect an answer on this noob questions, but i would really apreciate answers.
stock rom & bootloader
stock rom is the rom which comes with ur phone while purchasing it.. u can call it base rom..bootloader is tri-coloured screen which is bios for ppc if it gets fked then phone is bricked..next time if u cant boot up, then u can flash ur phone with the help of bootloader...
that was fast
thanks, but i do not think i have the rom that came with my mobile phone:/
and i do not know how to flash from tri colored screen, because all the files i have tried cant detect my phone.
ipl adn spl are 3.08 if that helps anything.
that was fast
is there an app you use to flash from tri colored
there is no need for any app, just connect ur phone to tri-coloured screen..u willl see usb in down left corner.. then ur phone is connected then run RUU utility.. if any problem comes i am online at hotmail... [email protected]
Can you power down? If not, remove battery for 1 seconds, the re-insert. Then press all at once the camera, comm and power buttons (or I believe you can also press the camera and soft reset. It is in the wiki explaining, as are some stock roms. Use any stock rom if you plan on flashing a cooked rom. The Tmo 2.26 is a decent stock rom, there is a 3.08 on the forum somewhere that you can also use. Get a stock rom. Get into the tri-colored bootloader. Look to see if it says usb in the bottom corner. If yes, connect your cable and using the ruu from the stock rom, flash your phone. Once a stock rom is installed follow the directions to cid/sim unlock your phone. Once unlocked, you can flash any cooked rom.
PS- I am assuming you have a G3 phone.
PPS- reading the wiki and the stickies are very helpful. Give them a try.

And if i swich on my phone, and dont do nothing, its just go to frozen...
A dont install nothing my phone since many weeks.

I dont know, but if i connected my phone to PC, the PC isnt known my device...
I dont do nothing, my phone was dead, and im a big trouble (((((((((((
PLEASE HELP ME!
did u try to hard reset it?
can u still enter bootloader mode?
if u can still enter bootloader then try flash another ROM
I think there is a timebomb in the Rom you are using.
Go to bootloader menu, connect to usb, and try to flash an other rom by installing via Windows.
okay, but what is the hard reset? Is that a red button on my device back?
if it is, i try this, but it isnt solve my problem.
and how i can go the bootloader menu?
thank a lot.
Don't worry...just try the hardreset:
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Continue pressing the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see this message on the screen:
This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to the manufacturer default settings. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer defaults, or press other keys to cancel.
3. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
4. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
If this does not work...just flash another rom...it really seems to have this timebomb issue...you don't have a hardware problem...it's just the software.
here's a video instruction for the hard reset:

thanks a lot, the hard reset worked!!!

Flash the latest Hard SPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=179550&d=1240516932
I'm curious, what way did you flash these roms. Are you using USPL or HSPL or have you just flashed these straight from stock?
i used an older february HSPL, now, i will put on my device the latest version, thanks the idea!

2 versions of HSPL, 1.14 & 1.56. You will need HSPL 1.56 on your device to be able to use roms based on 1.56+
thanks a lot, i flash the new HSPL, and now, all phone function back to normal!!!
THANKS!!
Impressed by the support
Hello,
I was watching this thread continously and whenever i try to jump in to help you with tips about flashing, someone would have done it already.
I feel somewhat releived to know that your Kit(d) is back on track.
I like this forum very much not just for the solutions but also for the people's attitude.

trinity freezes? HELP!

yesterday i installed the rom of one of the above threads (win 6.5.28052) but everytime i boot up my device (when it is installed) it crashes.. constantly the same screen and i cant do anything?
i wanted to flash it to another win 6.5 rom. but i cant even turn on active sync on my phone
can anyone help me?
and fast. because i cant call and sms..
oh and: sorry for bad english
One post below is an exploit that seems to work without activesync, You could try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5336477&postcount=379
If I`m right it should connect again after You have a new SPL onboard. Relatively new here myself...
Another method would be to flash directly from an old SD card (not a new micro with adapter).
Edit : Maybe I misunderstood "turn on active sync on my phone" : Are You trying to flash when in bootloader mode (tricolor screen) ?
i was not flashing my phone in tricolor screen. but i did saw that screen when i installed the new rom?
but how do i come in the bootloader?
EDIT: can u please explain me in steps how i have to do this? (i am not so smart in those things..)
and how do u flash with a SD card?
another EDIT: i came a little bit further. no i see the commanager screen and disabled everything, then i tryed to turn on active sync. but then it freezes I WANT TO USE MY PHONE AGAIN!
Where did you find 28052 for trinity?.
Bootloader mode push on+camera botton+soft reset.
it was an older version.. typed it wrong. it was 28014..
but do u have a clue how i can fix this?
EDIT: now if i unlock my device. i get the windows screen when it boots up and does nothing.. so i cant do even less..
Ths to Supersport:
My recommendation for Flashing is:
Make sure you have Hard SPL on your Phone. I recommend Olipro 1.20 - Click Here for More Info
Be sure your battery is at least 50% full.
Start your phone in Tri Color Screen mode. Steps below
--Unplug your phone from USB
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
--Plug in the USB cable (if asked about installing a driver, do this), You should see USB in the White Box)
Now you can Flash.

that tricolor screen says:
TRIN100
IPL-0.50
TRIN100
SPL-1.20.Olipro
so the spl version is good?
what to do next?
EDIT: what happens when i reset everything to factory standard?
ok. i did the steps u gave and i am flashing now..
now see what it does..
ow and btw.
how u can do dual boot on this phone? maybe i want android on it if it is possible
where can i find a good version of windows mobile 6.5? becuase the version i have now i dont like.. but the other version i tried was wrong?
Glad You found some help, I currently only have internet access at work...
What a good ROM is depends on Your liking. If You want a clean 6.5 base to install stuff Yourself and have lots of free RAM for bigger apps, check the second post of
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551424
The one my phone came with was also from xda-devs but couldn`t run iGO (nav software) because there was too little free RAM, too much preinstalled stuff running like Manila eyecandy...
So if You want a ROM with fancy today screens and other preinstalled stuff You`ll have to take a look around here, otherwise check the one above, many ppl recommend it.
Happy flashing
@flyby.
i dont like the standard skins of windows mobile 6.5 but i like the start menu and the file explorer thing,
and i used SPB Mobile before and i like that!
but what is the lightest version of windows mobile 6.5 here on xda? without that fancy touchflo etc, only the good start menu in the top and a good file explorer were u can scroll with u finger?

T5355 stuck on "TOUCH Diamond2" screen

Hi guys!
I have been trying everything that I could find on XDA to fix my problem.
I got this HTC clone a few weeks ago, and it was working fine.
I decided to install a UI on it and it worked fine. After a while I got bored of the UI, so I decided to uninstall it. After the uninstall, the device indicated that it needed to be restarted. I did that, but after it rebooted, it started to reinstall Windows Mobile 6.1. I was annoyed by this, but was like, whatever, and let it continue.
Where the real problem started was when the device froze up (I left it alone for over an hour, but there was no change).
I then had to pull the battery. After I put the battery back into the T5355 it just keeps getting stuck on the "TOUCH Diamond2" screen.
I tried all the hard reset and soft reset tricks I could find and have no been able to either setting it back to factory or bootloader mode.
I was able to find a post that described how to place the boo.ini, flash.bin, and loader.bin file onto my micro sd card. I was able to to get the boot.ini an flash.bin files, but can't seem to find a loader.bin file (it that the actual OS rom?). I then found a post that showed how to use HiSilicon IDT to force the install of the OS Bin file (C02_HTC_20091102_R2127_英全视角B包.bin).
I followed the instructions on placing the T5355 into "Download" mode and pushing the OS bin fine to it.
I am able get the IDT software to detect the T5355 and start pushing the install, but the damned thing ends up giving an XLDR error.
PLEASE! PLEASE! Somebody help me! This phone is brand new and really want to get it working again.
Model: HTC(?) T5355
Please help me someone!!
Is there anyone out there that can help me???
I am so frustrated and can think of what else to do!
The biggest problem I have is that I can't use ActiveSync. If I could use that I wouldn't have much trouble.
Does anyone know how to use HiSilicon's IDT properly? The instructions I was working off of are in Russian. I think that a need a loader.bin file for the T5355 that I can put on my micro sd card...or maybe not...I don't know.
I just really want to get this device back to factory settings.
Please someone take pity on me!!!
enter bootloader [those orizontal strange colors]
try flashing a new rom. you may search and download the original 6.5 build from HTC
to enter bootloader, press "volume down + shutdown button" and then flash the rom
ATENTION: plug the USB cable, wait a few seconds, you should see USB on the lowest white color, then do the flashing job
I don't think you would be experiencing these problems with an original topaz
Please take care this is a HTC CLONE

DalvuS, thanks for the reply, but the issue is that I can't seem to get into bootloader mode . I wish I could. The T5355 seems to be stuck in the middle of wm 6.1 install. I need to somehow wipe the install and be able to push a reinstall back to the device.

Exca that comment doesn't help me. It just makes me more sad. I was gipped when I bought the phone . I thought I paid for a "real" Diamond 2.
If you can't to catch the bootmode, looks like hardware problem.
You can't to repair it at home, imho. Try the specialized service.

Hello people, how can i dump my rom from my phone (mfu w71) for backup, because i cannot find any rom in english only in chinese. I started to dump the chinese rom with some chinese kitchen (K3系列ROM工具), but i'm stuck. I do not know to do anymore i have extracted ROM, SYS folder. I think it would be good to start another section on this forum for the chinese phones.
Some help from experienced cookers would me be much apreciated.
My T5355 is up and working!!!
Thanks to everyone who replied to my post!!!
I discovered that the problem was that the PC I was attempting the install from was running an AMD based processor.
I tried on the family laptop (which runs an Intel processor) and the install worked!
I AM SOOOO HAPPY!!!
b0gdi good luck with your issue. Try doing a search here in XDA for "dump my phone".
nothing[switched off] -> press start -> command -> bootloader -> bootloader commands -> system start -> play
checking one by one by interfering would have done the trick
I'm glad to hear that... so now you're ok
NEXT !
