Help me please, this is my 2nd brick

I bricked my phone while trying to change the framework. Now i don't have xrecovery or cwm. This is my second brick, two weeks ago i sent my phone to sony.
The problem is that when I connect my phone in "flash" mode, my pc doesn't recognize it.
PD: I'ts not a driver problem.

I use to have the same problem like that my pc dont recognized my phone with pccpmpanion and then i start SE update service and its recognized it...so try with SE Update Service

what about your Kernel friend??
sorry just want to know how about your phone?

[Q] My X8 bricked?

Maybe someone can help me, I installed a new firmware(MiniCM7 2.1.5) on my X8 in CWM. After the reboot the screen stays permanent on 'Sony Ericsson'. I even can not come in CWM anymore. Can somebody help me with this? Thanks!
edit : I even can not put it off anymore, it stays on the Sony Ericsson screen, the only thing I can do is disconnect the battery

Both SEUS and PCC don't work. They don't see the phone when I connect it with the USB. The phone 'hangs' when the 'Sony Ericsson' words appear on the screen after I put on the phone. I don't even can switch it off, only when I get the battery out. Anybody who can help me with this?
edit : After several times it worked! Thanks Nelikp

Use flashtool,it will work.

have you tried the s1tool to read the phone and see the status of it might be that the boot loader needs locking and then re trying everything in the text guide.

Dude your saying the the phone is getting to the Sony Ericsson screen at least.
If it was totally bricked then it wouldn't even start up.
Have you installed all drivers for the x8 onto pc and also x10 drivers that flash tools come with ?
If its going to Sony screen and stopping then its software/rom problem.
Are you holding the back button down whilst plugging the usb cable into the phone ??
If you are what is it doing. Is this still booting up do you fee the phone vibrate then come on or just goes to boot and goes to the Sony screen

What Operating system is this on Windows wise. I will have a look around for some solution if any and see what I can come up with later

Windows 7...
Thanks mate ;D !

Try install gordon gate flash driver?

Is phone showing any signed of life ? Any vibration/led or something ?
If not its hardbrick I think its no way to fix hardbrick. The only way is to send it to Sony to fix it or buy a new phone
If your phone is turning on and there is vibration/led any signed of life there is change to fix it at home

OK.. You're still ok!
Take the battery out of the phone for a minute..
Restart windows
Once windows is restarted open PCC
Put battery in the phone, plug into usb and wait see if the drivers for your phone are installed correctly.
If so proceed to update your firmware as usual..
Good luck..

mmm try this tool

When I saw the title of its thread I knew the answer would either be:
You have a hardware problem, you need to physically repair it.
You have a hard brick, you're in deep muck.
Let us hold a minute silence for the late x8. Another one bites the dust. :crying:

hey if the green led is on while your phone is connect then it can be done....if not.then its a hard brick.........

maybe your's X8 is hard bricked or soft bricked , if your phone is stucks in the middle of the booting(Bootlop) its just soft bricked and you can fix it your self by using SONY PC COMPANION
step 1-plug in your phone to USB (off the phone)
step 2-go to PC Companion and click phone cannot detect/phone not found
step 3-shows a dialog box and click something like (FIX)
step 4-follow all the Sony Ericsson's procedure and your are DONE!
--------->this method will reset and restore your orignal Stock ROM (FRESH)
IF HARD BRICKED! YOU CANT DO ANYTHING JUST SEND IT TO SONY TO FIX if still under warranties ,if the warranty expired it will cost you.

bricked x8 while sim unlocking
Hi,
I have two x8's (11w48 and 11w22) and yesterday I unlocked both using WotanServer.com.
I did know 11w48 is most likely will be bricked if doing bootloader unlock, so I did not do that. Sim unlocking went well for this one, it works and it accepts any sim cards (hopefully. At least two different ones I tried and both work).
But the other one, 11w22 was sim unlocked yesterday (been stock 2.1.1 before, not even rooted) and after seeing "Unlock done! Disconnect your phone and reboot it." I disconnected, and no sign of life since then. I left it on the charger overnight, no led was lit.
SEUS, S1tool, X10flashtool can not see it, no vibration pressing power+up or power+up+down.
Q1: Is there a way I can bring it back to life?
It is partly in varranty period (has 1+1 years, sold in 2011).
Q2: Will the service center repair it under warranty?
This phone (11w22) looks nice, the other one (11w48) is scratched.
Q3: Will the service center detect if I swap the cases (put the bricked one having warranty in the scratched housing) and try to use the warranty?
Q4: Should I try omnius USB/serial method?

[Q] [HELP] Sony Ericsson X8 Bootloop

Two week ago when i played radio from an application on my device while charging it, suddenly my device reboot and reboot again...
Then i was trying reset all data but the problem still exist...
So i followed some guide from this forum by rooting and flashing it using flashtool and using new firmware from provide link ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19684920#post19684920 and http://www.mediafire.com/?d3pobqqc3py66#4c02265ox4l1r )
and the problem was still the same, reboot and reboot again, so i tried using PCC and SEUS but it didn't change anything..
Lately, when i charge my device, it didn't reboot, but when i didn't charge the phone, on some point my device reboot and reboot again and the battery went down to +/- 2-15%
What is really happen to my device ?? Is it battery problem or RAM problem ???

or maybe i am right, the problem is the battery or the RAM...
cause it happen when i listening a web radio and charging my phone....
that time my battery is full but i forget to unplug it, and when it happen, the battery is enough hot....
or maybe my cache memory, that is used by a web radio application is full....
is any of that possible ??

Sony Ericsson X8 Bootloop
Hey I will tell you what to do.
First of all install Sony Ericsson Update Service or SEUS. Just Google it and you can find it easily!
Now connect your phone to your computer via USB cable.
Start SEUS.
Then follow the on-screen instructions.(You will be asked to select your phone model,update or repair your phone etc)But its easy!!!!!
Then leave the rest to SEUS.
It will first repair your phone,then download the stock rom and kernel and also the baseband and will automatically install them.
After that you will have your X8 on stock rom,it will be updated to the latest baseband and kernel.
Hope it works for you.

For my case, it will bootup with 1.6 stock rom, the baseband will be stated unknown, but it still can call and receive SMS...
Any rom that is above 2.1 won't be able to boot, that include stock 2.1 and any custom rom...
It only can be repaired by SE i think (or maybe JTAG )...
So in the end i gave up the phone and sold it at a cheap price to a friend and he took it to SE for repair, the phone comes back with stock 2.1 ROM
but the camera and vol button are not working, most probably damaged by the repair guy in SE...
Btw, any one knows what causes the baseband to gone like that?
