Many many thanks in advance,
Valery
P.S.Sorry for my English-it's not good and now especially i'm totally nervous with that problem...
Action button is the middle of the optical joypad.
to reflash connect from your computer with a USB cable and use the Custom Radio RUU
AND DO NOT GO AROUND FLASHING THINGS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
Thanks a lot for fast response!!!
I was flashing one of the Radio ROMs here in the thread,that was in the list as worked, maybe it was transfer failure to MicroSD card,now it don't matter.
I power now Xperia on, then see that 4-color screen,then now i see kovsimg.nbh- RADIO and "Press power button to start update image" and "Press action button to cancel update image". If i press the middle of optical joystick-as you said-then it happens nothing-i see the same screen...What schould i do????
This is the "n" time I write this:
Remove and reinsert battery
Turn phone on
Now you are out of bootloader

Strange for you, but well known phenomena: your flash didn't complete
You'll have to flash again from a PC or by copying a new radio file to your microSD card, or you can use "mtty"... sorry there's no other way but reaching a PC

you can't access the sd-card without a Cardreader but you dont have to. In the 4-color screen you should see the text "USB" when you connect the phone to the pc (as far as I remember, when the device is not connected to the pc instad of "USB" the text is "SERIAL"). In that mode you can use the RUU to update your device.
Mastermarv,
thank you very much!!!I was worked for me-i was using RUU Radio utilities in bootloader mode and flashed orig. Radio ROM-now it all started OK and all work again!!!!!Uf-f-f,so one "abenteuer"...
Thank you all the people,those tried to help me in this situation,much appreciated your help!!!!

I have the same problem! i can't even connect it to my pc cuz it doesn't recognize the phone... it's been stuck at the white " KOVSIMG.nbh - OS - Update in progress...." screen for more than 10 mins now. but it's 100%. I tried hard & soft reset, taking out the battery, and powering it on again , but it still goes back to this screen. please help me... thanks in advance
i'm trying to insall a new rom valkyrie v1.6... i've put it on my memory card root and changed it to kovsimg.nbh got the three colours, now all it says is "Loading..."
any ideas?
X1 rescue! Bricked?
I flashed stock SPL over HSPL before flashing back the stock ROM.
X1 will shows the SPL version following by "Loading..." on the LCD whenever power up! (with memory card inside the phone)
My SPL is 0.72.
The phone should be in recovery mode now without valid ROM/OS in it.
I copy an official UK ROM (R2AA010) into the micro SD card and rename it to kovsimg.nbh,
remove the battery for a few sec, insert the SD card with image file and then hold VOL Down button and power button to boot into Flash mode.
Press Power button to begin flashing process.
(Like normal flashing to other ROM after HSPL mod)
The phone should read the ROM image data and reflash back x1.
If this method not working, try to hold Power+VOL Down and press the RESET at the same time until the phone turn into "Rainbow" screen then try to flash again.
This "Rescue method" works for my set but I still advice that MUST flash stock ROM then only follow with SPL!
If your xperia is stuck in a "boot loop", which I think is what you're describing (as I remember mine always said it was loading the rom, each time you rebooted) then there's a PC application called mtty. it gives a command line interface to the phone when connected by USB.
I don't remember what commands are needed, but a search of the forums should find them. You need to set it to boot properly. Sorry I can't be more helpful, it was last year at some point that I needed this last.

i heard you are supposed to flash the stock rom THEN soft spl. not the way you did it
It is the rule: always restore last what you have flash first

2. Make sure X1 is off
3.-4. You can skip this if X1 is really off
5. Press on the "down volume" (the button you press to decrease volume level) and DO NOT LET GO
6. WHILE STILL PRESSING the volume down key, press the power button AND DO NOT LET GO OF BOTH KEYS until the tricolor screen appears
it still doesnt work sir,
pinoy here
are there requirements in entering bootloader?
please help me, is it required to have my memory card formatted? and my phone is fresh (hard reset)?
If you just want to update your phone, you really don't need to use SEUS. Just flash the WWE R3A stock ROM (it's in the stickied thread in the ROMs section) using the RUU (activesync) method

but in this case it think it's very important to say that it's only that simple if he want's to flash a stock-rom!!!
(meaning "an original rom by SE")
@dlegendkiller:
if you ever want to flash a custom-rom then first read about flashing hard-spl and then do it before flashing custom-roms. if not, you can get into serious trouble. (it's easy and save if you follow the instructions)

honestly, i think you're either doing something wrong here OR your volume-button is broken. regardless of your sd-card you should be able to enter bootloader-mode (the tri-color screen).
are you really doing it this way? to test do it without the usb-cable attached:
- turn your phone off completely
- press your volume-down-button and keep pressing it
- now press the power-button and also keep pressing it
you'll know when to release the buttons yourself.
anyway, can i get some advantages in updating my rom? i really am scared to install custom roms, i might break the phone
and i want to install manila hd, i am wondering why i cant install it
its about "system permissions etc etc"
does it require custom rom?

Ok what are you doing to try to boot your phone ? and what ROM are you using to boot with ?
If you only need to do a factory setting boot ie you want the ROM you already have on but restored back to how it was - follow this
1. Turn off the phone .
2. Hold vol + & - keys and tap power on button
3. Once on the Tricolor screen release the volume buttons
4. White screen will show follow the instructions on screen to reboot phone.
Your phone will now hard reset back to factory settings.
If you are trying to boot a new ROM over the top
1. Ensure you have Hard_SPL on your device details of this can be found below.
2. Attach the phone to the pc
3. Transfer over your .nbh ROM file to the root of the memory card
4. Once the image is on the card rename it to TOPAIMG.NBH
5. Follow the flashing how to guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585201 to flash your phone
If all else fails download a stock ROM from htc and re-flash original ROM.
