Stuck at sony ericsson logo - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi forum members,
After months and months of testing I’m still having the same problem with my x1 phone:
Each time it is randomly freezing after installing a few apps on top of those that come with the rom itself. I tried to find out which of the apps caused the freezing, but did not get ANNY wiser from that. It seems to occur with random apps at random moments, after I installed more than 4 or 5 apps…
Last time I was confinsed It was GAlarm 2.5 (and 2.3) that caused the problem, to check I installed same apps as I did that previous time, but now without a Galarm:
I Formatted with task 29
Flashed Rom (infinite rom)
Performed hard-reset.
Tested several hours
Installed task manager from x2 (infinite has no task manager)
Installed on screen keybord from x2
Tested several hours
Installed HTC Album
Tested several hours
And I was happy! After months of testing I came to the conclusion that it HAD to be Galarm conflicting with this rom.
So next day, happy as I was, I went to my PC to connect my phone and to install the rest of my apps, however…. my phone ones again had died. And at start up it did not get past the sony Ericsson logo.
Anyone has any idea what is going on here??
Thanks in advance,
x1Albertx1

for the phone to get stuck on the SE Logo i think it means that there is no ROM or the ROM files r corrupted because after u format using task the phone does the same before flashing any ROM
and as u can't get past the SE screen i guess u'll have to Flash a ROM or try hard reset
i'm not sure but that's my openion
hope it helps

since the new Rom-Update it is driving me crasy

I have a really annoying problem with my P4350.
Before the official Update i was running HERALD_WM6.0_4.12.07.06.PDAVIET with 4 MB Pagepool.
it worked really nice and i had never any problem with it.
Now i updated to the official HTC WM6 Rom. First i also installed the OS from PDAVIET over the Official one. But then i encountered after a little time the Bootloop of death.
it was always rebooting, and removing of the microsd did not really helped at the bootloop it was only stopping at the bootscreen and hang there forever.
the only chance was a Hardreset. After that i installed only the official Rom from HTC from the Bootloader. Now i am running only the official WM6 Rom and it is also rebooting after some time. i did not installed anything that i didnt installed also in the original WM5 Rom, and SD-Card removing also dont help.
After some Hardresets i installed a Safemode tool.
now i encountered another Bootloop and i can enter the Safemode. There i sometimes disable a Homeplugin, then it boot again. But not for long, it will hang again in the Bootloop. I have no idea wath File/Program is doing this thing and i have not many applications that boot at startup. It is also happening if i have no Home-Plugins enabled (from Safemode disabled).
can someone help me at this, or is it only possible that i downgrade or never install any application(wath is also no guarantee that it will not again enter the bootloop)
(sorry for every error in my text because i am German)
How long do you wait before giving up when you pull out the SD card? When I installed the home screen I got the continuous reboot and when I took out the sd card it stayed at the green windows mobile screen for about 2-3 minutes before booting into the home screen.
Also, have you tried this: http://www.modaco.com/Continuous-reboots-t256186.html ?
thanks for your help.
But i already waitet for way more than 3 minutes. i think it was ~ a half hour.
I already tried to rename the OMAP850_SDHC.dll but with no luck. The File is in the Rom and it is not alowed to rename this File. (if i look at the Settings from Resco Explorer ROM is activated)
my OMAP850_SDHC.dll is 46.38 kB big and from 02.07.07 5:44 if this information can help.
at the moment i try to avoid a reboot from my device...
I think i found the troublemaker.
I deleted a windows-design that i liked and used in all Rom-versions, and since i deleted the file it seems that the reboot-problem is solved.
If my Herald will hang again in a reboot-loop, i will write here again.
so long... thanks for the help.

Trinity running 6.1 Elegance- totally bricked - please help me!!

Hi all,
I have been visiting these forums for 2 years now and have downloaded some great tools and ROMs to enhance my Trinity, however something all of a sudden has gone very wrong!
I upgraded to WM6.1 Elegance edition about 3/4 months ago, CID unlocked the phone about a month ago and everything has been working like a dream.
However just today, I attempted to turn the volume down on my phone during a meeting (I always forget to normally!) and there was no display. After few battery resets, again no display. It starts up, loads the the Elegance splash screens and then hangs on the screen before when the OS should appear.
My decision was to flash the ROM again. I cant flash using Activesync as it wont pick up on the hung screen, so I started the bootloader and got as far as 1% of the flash and it will restart. So I tried the SD Card method when resulted in a "loading" screen appearing for a few seconds and then it goes back to the standard bootloader and displayed a 00068002 error.
I am out of ideas, I hear mtty.exe is a good program for this kind of thing, but what I want to know is if this is fixable or if I should give up!
I have been working on this since 2pm today none stop!
Can any of you guys give me any suggestions please?!?!?
Kind regards,
Jonathan
Should be a cinch
Did you SPL the Phone before flashing roms?
If you put the phone into the bootloader mode The RGB screen and kill of activesync you should be able to run one of the flash update programs.
If I have flashing problems its usually Active sync so I kill it then run the flash program.
I've got a sneaky suspision your battery might be causing the problem.
Hi there, thanks for the reply. As I was new to upgrading I havent used SPL on the phone before flashing the ROMS. I did use an unlock tool recently as i wanted to try a different network SIM to see if it worked when I was in South America, so the phone is unlocked to all networks. Are you saying if I SPL now it should sort the problem out? If so how do I do this withour ActiveSync working - can you use SD?
Another thing I failed to mention was that when I start an upgrade and it follows all the steps, it doesnt say the current ROM on the screen where you press update ROM. It just gives the name of the new ROM and the current one is left blank.
I have disabled Active Sync before attempting the update. It seems to go through fine and then the phone restarts wafter 1% of the update.
What makes you think it is the battery? I am happy to spend under 20 pound on ebay if you think it will fix the issue!
try unbrick.bat.......my trinity was also stuck.......unbrick.bat save my day....
The same happened to me several time....I could not find a solution other than this one:
1. Flash the official HTC ROM.
2. Flash the required ROM then.
it works for my TrinTy.

Xperia Restarting problem with Custom Roms

So i have been using Custom ROMs for about a year now with no problems. However, recently i flash to the Valkyrie Firestorm 4.4 (i think) leo and when i attempted to restart my fone it would either hang on the sony erricson logo or it would boot up like it does after a flash. As in it would run the customisation and wipe all my contacts and other information, but strangely enough the clock would remain on the correct time.
This has happened with every firestorm i have tried, which are: 4.4 leo, 4.4 manila and the 4.5 leo. I am going to try a different ROM to see if i still get the problem. has anyone had this problem?
I've re-flashed my hard-spl multiple times to no avail.
Yup I've had the same problem with itje's touch it 14 rom. I have no idea why this is happening, it already occured twice with me.
I had the same problem with the valkyrie 4.4 rom, Itje's Toucht-it Leo v10 and Toucht-It Xperience v2, UnOff 6.5. And also with other versions of itje's Touch-it because i remember seeing the HTCpedia.com customization screen a lot
Every time my phone hung and then when i push the reset button it take's a long time and then it is back to first run. or it does nothing and stays at the touch-it start-up screen.
Could it be a hardware failure like something with the backup batery in the phone? when power goes off it doesn't save data and then when you turn it on it thinks it is first run?
I can always tell when it is going to happen if the favourite programs on the programs tab dont work anymore. When I want to start a program from the tab it says "location not found" or something. After that I will likely have a system freeze and after that I have a hard reset, same sympoms as Aerox912.
So maybe it has something to do with the programs tab?
I am having the same issue with Christians 3.201 build.
Also during the installation it will often hang on the install of Opera or Opera Beta.
But I tried re-downloading and reflashing 6 times before I gave up and went back to an older ROM.
Looking forward to the next version so I can try again. I really like the Firestorm but I also really like the Panels.
Now I just need to find out how to install the SPB Mobile Shell 3 as a panel like on Christians and I would probably stay with my SEX1 build.
Using itje's touch it 15 RC2 and it sometimes, for no reason, phone just reboots. It used to happen with version 14 as well. Never used to have that problem before then.
I tried with rotastrains Blaze rom. the latest edition and i am still getting the same issues. I too, can tell when it is going to happen. When the programs can't be run anymore or if the phone freezes and then i need to turn it off, i can almost guarantee that will happen.
Im glad to see im not the only one with the problem, but isn't there anyone with a solution? I've tried everything and i really cant put up with having to wait 15 minutes until my phone is usable everytime it restarts.
Guys, i had this problem with my Diamond recently & i can say that it's more than frustrating.
try this option, I'm not sure if this is the EXACT same process for the Xperia but it did solve my issues. Perhaps scheduling a daily backup of PPCPIMBackup will help keep info up 2 date when the dreaded lockup happens?
hope this helps
flash a stockrom and then the custom rom and the problem should be gone
Why would that help?
I now tried cristians rom, and had the same problem again within one day. I'm now gonna try the MTTY (format) option, see if that helps...

This simple solution seems to work fine for me. Thanks man!
The MTTY solution for formatting the phones ROM area worked just fine for me
Can you point me the mtty formatting method? Please.
I also had this problem once at my x1 and once at my girlfriends diamond. Seems a reflash with a stockrom and after that flash the custom rom again solves this problem.
Atleast it worked for me.
I put on the R3AA014 ROM and am still seeing the problems.
Is there another Stock ROM that would work better?
And I have tried to look up the mtty method and all I find are people talking about it, but not the actual method.
Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe it isn't a software problem but a hardware problem. Incase no rom fix it.

Could you please describe the process.
I tried the The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread but the task 29 command did nothing... Though i'm not sure what should happen.
For the Xperia, I heard that the command is Task 28 instead of Task 29 for the MTTY process

Hm... i tried that but that did nothing.
happened to me many times..most frequent is my X1 will restart itself every half an hr...very frustrating
SOLUTION:
Format Your SD card (don't be lazy and just delete the old stuff and put new rom file in there).....put a fresh copy of the .nbh file in root.
Hard reset after flash.
Problem should be gone

HTC Diamond Hangs/Freezes in boot screen after completing customization/after restart

Hello,
I installed a cooked ROM a week ago. After a day or two I switched the phone off and when I switched it on it froze on the Touch Diamond boot screen indicating the versions.
I did a hard reset. It worked fine but after installing some ROM fixes (provided in the ROM thread) after rebooting it got stuck again.
Finally, I attempted to install a new rom, everything went fine until rebooting from the customization screen that resulted to the same problem..
Is my device problematic?
PS: Before installing the new ROM i had another cooked rom installed that worked perfectly.
I removed the SIM card, managed to boot the phone and I got an error "@[]@[]M[]@ cannot be opened . Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found." ([] = unprintable character)
I have the same problem, only with my htc hd2.
Was running a slightly modified close to stock rom wwe, without problem (except the occasional freeze every other day) however, after attempting to install another room with cookie's homepage customizer, my phone keept freezing after about 5 min after the customization screen.
I thought this had something to do with the apps I installed just after the rom installation process. However, after some testing the same problem occur regardless if I install just the rom.
Have also tried upgrading to another newer version rom & radio yet I encounter the same issue all the time; The screen will freeze and otherwise become non - responsive after a restart the phone may not start ( freezing on windows orange screen), or it will start the customization process anew, somehow resetting all settings and stored content. .
Is my phone messed up for good? What are my options, please help!
Cheers,
Nate.

Touch diamond 2 freezes

Hello everybody,
I have German Touch diamond 2. Ten days ago I updated ROM to official 2.5 manilla ROM in english (WWE). I have Olix 1.83 loader. The installation froze at 8 percent and switched device to three color mode, but then it resumed and it finished successfully. Everything was fine until today. My device froze two times in last 12 hours. The device turns off and I cannot switch it on again. I have to remove the batery for few minutes and then I can successfully restart it. What is wrong? Can anybody please help me?
Thanks in advance, alien76.
this is called SOD, common problem with 2.53 based ROMs, u can search for it coz it has been discussed a lot in topaz threads.
