Use the Custom_RUU (computer cable) method to flash back to the stock. Don't use SEUS. If you still have warranty, revert to stock ROM and spl and send your phone back for repair or have them replace it with an iPhone

I sent mine in a couple of days ago. It was not that easy. First I installed stock ROM and stock Radio (which I wrote down - fortunately). Then I had trouble with StockSPL. I did not want to use SEUS because I couldn't think of that as a solution. So I flash SPL like you would flash a ROM. Then the Xperia stuck in bootloader mode. Then I installed SEUS and upgraded ROM. So in the end I had newest ROM and StockSPL (72.000) and I could send it in. Hopefully they repair my cracks in case...
Good luck with your one! Do it like harvey says...

My HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) was dead :(

Hello guys!
Sorry my bad english!
I installed to WM6.5 ROM in my HTC phone in february. I used may months, all day...
And yesterday i switch on my phone, put on my desk, and today, i see , that the screen get white. It dont do nothing, just get white. I restart the phone many times, and remove the battery, the phone do this: i enter my security password (i locked my phone) and then its go to white screen, and dont do nothing. 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.
Maybe, the WM6.5 ROM was out of date???
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!!!
thanks!!!

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.

Volume Buttons stopped working!

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 ..

Getting back to stockrom..

Hi all,
My xperia had the reboot problem. (after starting up windows mobile 6.1 it rebooted immediatly.
After that i installed the Ruu rom including SEX1 windows 6.5. My phone worked 4 about 2 weeks perfectly.
Now.. my phone starts rebooting again and i think a have to give it back to the shop for warranty (or does anybody else has other idea's?)
i have to install the stock ROM again ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218 ) but first i have to install the original OS.
Where can i find this?
by the way.. i also cant get into the rainbow screen...
what can i do?!
many thanks!
6.5 is not final dude, anything is possible with software thats not final, also 3rd party apps can cause issues.... if u are having no probs with the stock rom why not stick to the stock rom, try other roms to be sure first, dont just send back a phone because its rebooting after u changed the rom...see what the cause may be first

That was my first thought also but if you read it well you see that he couldn't get into tri collor screen.
you have to explain why you can't get in the rainbow screen doe it reboots? or wouldn't it just get in there. did try to press the volume down button and the power button at the same time?
look here for the originally roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
but if you want to flash it you really got to get in the rainbow screen thats the only way to flash it.

Try Putting your Phone in BootLoader mode.
Flash it with HARD SPL1.56
Then Try Installin a Fresh firmware again, a Hard Reset n it will be fixed.
I did all of this...
Nothing, I think I must send it to HTC...
I think your HD died touchscreen . You need to bring the HTC Service Center for repairs. If you is bought on ebay then there will pay for about 200 USD
My Touch HD just died
R.I.P. !
Damn all was working nice.
I did nothing.... Only flashed all days another rom
And when i wanted to call a friend yesterday,the screen didn(t respond anymore....
Grrr, I will send it to HTC this week, and i will by a Topaz One...
Leo is too big for my pocket....

DIY for 30 USD..ebay the spare part.
Had one same condition and fixed flashing with an original rom. Radio+Rom and Align screen on startup/\
I was in same condition as yours ,When in typped align scren nothing but after flash and a hard reset everything getback
Me, nothing after flshing original Stock ROM and originalHSPL.
But solething is very strange.
When the backlight power off (the dimmer), it comes back when i hit the screen... But i can't align the screen, the screen doesn't recognise my touch.
Why the dim is working when i hit the screen ans my gesture are not recognised?
Thanks a lot
Greats from France
It looks like only the alignment of the screen is wrong. Why it does not get fixed when flashing original ROM is strange. But the fact that the screen response to touch (returning from dim) should mean that the digitizer is OK.
Yes I think the digitizer is OK.
But I don't know what the problem is.
I will try to reflash tomorrow a custom Rom without align to screen at first boot....
Thanks
try mtty to completely erase ur internal memory..
then flash stock rom..
Ok, a few simple queries to help solve your issue. I'm assuming you used USPL or HSPL before flashing rom? and correct version of HSPL? Can you still access bootloader? What is your SPL?
If you can access bootloader, all is not lost and your device is not bricked.
I'd recommend flashing original stock rom onto your device and starting from fresh. Stock roms can be found in the wiki here. Once you have restored stock rom and if you still want a cooked rom, follow thisguide.
Let me know the answer to the above queries and how you get on.
Hi,
I used the SPL by Olinex.
Now i revert back to the original SPL.
When i enter in booloader mode, I can see: SPL-1.54.0000
Is this ok?
Before flashing the origal SPL i flashed the original French Stock ROM.
What is MMTY ?
Thanks

- You can flash the stock rom using RUU ROM Update Utility via activesync connected instead of microsd method.
- Flash rom via SEUS doesnt change the hardSPL. But I think the latest SEUS needs stock rom/stock spl installed first, I'm not sure.
THANK YOU!!
So i should install my backed up stock rom then change the hard spl to stock?
Btw, should i install another stock rom intead of mine, for some reason i think something will go wrong (cuz I* backed it up)...
btw is this the tutorial i should be following?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508038
because it says that is for flashing radios but it seems like its the same thing no?
i think this linkmuch better,also has got everything what you need.good luck mate..

that thread is not what you are looking for, the one posted above this # is more suitable, but if you want to get back to stock because of warranty I would advice on
original x1 rom thread for the latest stock rom matching your country
olinex hspl thread to get the stock spl and read how to restore it
get customruu here as your volume control seems messed
biovolts tutorials for flashing and recovering if you are unsure (4.+5. for recovery)
bootloader app in case you still want to use sd card for flashing instead of synching with pc
cheers and gl
