Dear,
I've tried almost everything, sry
The problem is simple.
I've an X8 with stock (FW 2.1-update1, Kernel 2.6.29 and Build 2.1.1.A.0.6) and I'm trying to put it on ICS with MiniCM9.
The first thing I did was Root with SuperOneClick. Don!
Second was turn off the phone and install Flashtool and Flashtool drivers also.
Third, I tried to turn the phone into Flash mode and... the phone do not stay in "flash mode". After some seconds the phone reboot and enter in a orange light, instead of the green one.
Follow below the log of Flashtool:

turn on usb debugging. go to settings then to applications, development and touch where it says USB debugging
usb debug are on
i've install superuser first and then i've tried to install the new kernel.
the problem is "stay in flash mode"
the point is: when i put the device in flash mode, it stays for 5 seconds or less and reboot
I was having the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663775
I made two mistakes, i didn't reboot my pc after installing flashtool and my antivirus was activated. After having rebooting my pc and disabling my antivirus, the flashmode was working.

Hi Juliano i´m from Brasil too, but i don´t know if i can speak portuguese in the forum. But anyway i was having a problem more or less like yours, the problem was not really the light in the flashtool, but with the error when i tried to flash any kernel, the message is equal that you post in your log: ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR"ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS"ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed".
When you run the smc 7727 did you not have any error?Because when i run i have another error, where says that is not possible to gains acess route, but how? if the cel is rooted and the usb debuug was on too?

Disable antivirus, and run again with admin privileges

You need to unlock your bootloader then for example flash the nAa ics kernel via flashtool and install ROM via CWM.

If you look at the log you will see that your BL is still locked.

Ok, guess I misinterpreted then. How can I see it? Can I also see in this log of my X10 can be unlocked with flashtool? Or do I need another method for this?
on the debugging :good:
Hey guys, I have a problem, but it is bigger than you think.
Until today I have used GingerDX v0.27. I wanted to update it to v0.29. So I have done everything as always.
I have downloaded the .zip-file.
Then I have copied the .zip-file onto my SD-Card.
I started the phone while pushing the back-key.
I have cleaned the cache and installed the .zip-file.
But then I have made a huge mistake:
I have cleaned the cache again.
I don't know if I have bricked my phone when I have cleaned the cache again, but now it hangs at the Sony Ericsson-logo.
So I tried to start the phone while pushing the back-key. But nothing happens. I can only see the SE-logo.
Because I can't enter the CWM-Recovery I tried to install the stock ROM with Sony PC Companion 2.1.
But it simply doesn't recognize my phone. (I've clicked on "Repair phone" and done all that what the suite wanted. But it stays at "Connect your phone with USB while holding the back-key".)
So I have downloaded the "FlashTool".
But when I start it, click on Flash, click on the X8 Firmware (I've downloaded it from the Internet) "X8 Shakira E15i 2.1..." and follow the steps which are displayed on the screen it shows me this in the FlashTool:

I have searched today the whole internet, but all of them could enter the cwm or use the Sony PC companion.
I have already installed the drivers.
I also have already removed the battery, waited a few seconds and putted it back.
Then I have pressed and hold only the back-key and connected it to my pc.
But I always get the same situation as posted above.
But thanks for trying to help me.
PS: Of course my USB-Cable is working.

Cool, it works now with Sony Ericsson Update Service. I don't know why, but after I recharged the phone and connected it my pc installed the drivers again. (Like half a year before when I have restored it.)

ive aleardy encounter that problem before..i just do not press back key when powering my x8 thus i tend to press EVERY KEY (MENU,HOME,BACK,POWER) then it enter recovery..
in flashtool you must check ur driver (gordon gate),(FLASHTOOL/DRIVER) (Download Seus) then reflash your x8
im a newbie

I made the same mistake of installing GDXv029 for wrong kernel. Could you mention if you used PCC or standalone Update service app to unbrick your X8? I seem to be stuck with PCC doing nothing and Flashtool giving driver & USB debugging off errors.
If you can still enter CWM or XRecovery, restore a backup, or wipe everything and flash the correct version.

Nope, bricked beyond CWM or XRecovery. That's the first thing I tried in hope.

u tries SEUS? google it and try that, sure some1 sed this once on this thread tho
1. Let it charge for about an hour.
2. Download Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS). IMPORTANT: It must be SEUS and not the other one from the Sony website. This won't work. Here. Just click on the blue "zum Download" button, and then click on the "download-server Chip online" button.
3. Start the programe and follow the steps.
Now it should work if you do it correct.
Use Sony Update Service to unbrick your phone :good:

Yea, it did work. I had asked in the earlier post to Jake whether SEUS worked for him. Meanwhile, I was downloading it.
Sorry, I didn't see your reply earlier. I still have a problem of the phone resetting when someone answers my call or if someone calls in! So looks like I need to go to SE service centre anyway.
Thanks though.
Seems a lot of you are having the same problems I had with using Sony PC Companion to restore your phone.
Here is the proper method.
Follow these instructions STEP BY STEP, and you will eventually restore your X8 to its original state:
- Turn off the phone, and unplug it from the PC !
- On your PC, uninstall Sony PC Companion
- Restart your PC
- On your PC, clean any Cache and Registry related to Sony PC Companion, then restart PC again.
- Reinstall Sony PC Companion by downloading it from here
- Turn on Sony PC Companion on your PC
- In Sony PC Companion, enter the Support Zone tab
- Go to Update Phone Software
A window will pop out, saying that it cannot find your phone
- Click on Fix Phone
- Click on Continue
A window will pop out, saying that you will lose all your data
- TICK the BOX
- Click on continue
An update process will began.
Wait for it to show a window with all the SONY mobile phones
- Find your phone (X8)
- Click on the phone.
Now all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions. It will tell you to hold the back button and plug your turned-off X8 to the PC, then it will erase everything, and download the original 2.1 ROM to your X8.
If Sony PC Companion STILL doesn't recognize your X8, then, uninstall Sony PC Companion AGAIN, and start the above described process AGAIN. It WILL eventually work!
My Phone Worked! once i flashed a Custom Kernel ROM into Stock! Good Luck.
the resolution
try to use pc companion(for the easy one)
or try to use x8tool for unbrick some trouble
you can use recovery if some of them still can operate
if u got hard brick try to use seus
and if u got dead boot u can give the phone to the sony centre or just throw your old phone to the trash :v
usb flash mode must be done imediately after .....

I have searched today the whole internet, but all of them could enter the cwm or use the Sony PC companion.
I have already installed the drivers.
I also have already removed the battery, waited a few seconds and putted it back.
Then I have pressed and hold only the back-key and connected it to my pc.
But I always get the same situation as posted above.
But thanks for trying to help me.
PS: Of course my USB-Cable is working.

Dear
please pay attention to this guide.
i think you can not turn off your phone by power key while Sony Ericsson logo appears and you must remove the cover and take the battery out.is it ok?
for flashing by flash tools, start it and go ahead till it asks you to connect your phone in flash mode.
remove your phone cover and then battery .put the battery and then imadiately push the back key and connect usb cable.hold down the back key till the flashing starts.all must be done within 5 second.
recommendation:
1-flashtools version:x10 flashing tool version 0.6.9.1 built 2012-04-09
2-PCC
3-rom X8_2.1.1.C.0.0._un_2
4-X8_drivers_2
5-x8win
if the problem remains,let me know the flashtool messege.

if the problem remains,let me know the flashtool messege. or you`d better to use Sony Ericsson Update Engine.
I bricked my Xperia Z by trying to flash CM10.1 without flashing boot.img on a locked device.
I downloaded a stock ftf file and tried to flash using flashtool. I can get the phone to boot in to flash mode but then all it does is disconnect/reconnect.
I have tried on Windows 7 and OSX, both with the same results. I tried using SEUS, it found an update but when i click to update the phone disconnects/reconnects (i know this from the sound windows make)

Yes i did. Theres something no right with the detection of the phone as it keeps on disconnecting/connecting when i plug it in via flash mode.
The SEMC Drivers were installed correctly. The exact same thing happens on my OSX which makes me believe an issue with the phone itself?

Yeah tried that.
Tried to flash on my mums Windows 8 PC today, got a little further, however after connection via flash boot it hangs for a couple of minutes and then the phone boots to the sony logo with a solid red LED.
I also noticed the device ID is just a string of characters, shouldnt it say Xperia Z??
If its still on a locked bootloader, return it through warranty. You should get a brand new device.
Tell them you were updating to. 253 and it wouldn't boot after.
(I know this is lazy and probably unethical but if it works it works)
did you solve this issue ?

You should attach in flash mode first then select and install drivers, now open flash tools app
If still flash tools doesn't recognize use Gordon's gate PC app to reset drivers,(this app is in your flash tools folder / drivers)

Keep volumm down and connect your phone to computer >> open PC companion >> click on Support Zone >> Click on Phone Software update >> Click Repair >> Wait till it done . Try it's . Good luck .
the best method is download SONY UPDATE SERVICE software to your pc. after installing update service, turnoff your mobile then press and hold the volume down key , and connect it with your pc. (even if your phone is not charged no problem ). release the volume down key when the on screen instruction says it. after that if the system says your phone has latest software, then select reinstall the software. wait until it finish. thats all.
dont do too more
just power off ur sp bu stick the reset button in the backcover,and power on,see what happen,take it easy and carefully
