use pcc dont wory about hi say you hawe x10 hi will say you hawe newest wersion but you may repair yours program just do this you dont need flash stock kernel first pcc will bring you back ful stock rom and kernel
And you should lock your bootloader.
When I bricked my phone and installed stock kernel&rom, bootloader was still unlocked
But PCC is showing that I have X10. Wont I get error to on my phone? I have w8!

Probably you will as it will try to install the wrong ROM and if it does u will brick ur phone. Ok so first you connect your phone without connecting your memory card. Go to PCC and click repair, and just skip the dialog boxes and then it will ask you for ur phone model, selct w8 and then follow the instructions...
"There is no software available for your phone yet. Please try again later"
try wotan

try again i was repair my x8 whit pcc and hi tels me to that i hawe x10 but after repair all was corect and i hawe x8 stock software again
Done! With the help of this thread!!
Just one problem. I have x8's stock installed. How can I get w8's stock?? There is just a little difference.. But still!

You found the post I wrote about how to recover soft-bricks through Flashtool but you didn't find the W8 Stock ROM post on XDA?
Well, here it is ...
[ROM] Xperia™ W8 Stock ROM [17/05/2011]
Courtesy of Haka
Direct Link to the W8 Original Stock ROM Download (2.1.1.A.0.46)
The RAR seems to be a xRecovery backup. So simply extract the file and copy it onto your SD card under /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/W8.Bld46.17.05.2011
If you want it as a Flashtool FTF for future recovery purposes I'm afraid you have to create it yourself. Simply restore the backup through xRecovery and once that's done don't boot the device but connect it in Flash Mode to Flashtool and create a backup of the ROM. Feel free create a ZIP and put it up on Multiupload, or whatever File Hosting site, to share it with other W8 users (you know, a FTF would enable easy "soft brick" recovery through Flashtool in case none of the recoveries work anymore).

well x8 is also xperia and i buy it this year (E15i stock)
You can use latest flashtool 0.51 for unlocking X8 bootloader.Just click unlock button in plugin menu. I have unlocked my w8 by manually selecting device as E15 (x8).You have to be on stock ROM for this to work.
Although I can flash custom kernels ,all stuck after displaying Logo.Inbuilt recovery is working.At last i have to re flash stock kernel . I think some modification required for X8 custom kernel for use in w8. Any one succeded in custom kernel in w8?

I unlock bootloader on GDX v19 without any problem to match with linux kernel..
then a few days I notice my phone no network anymore..
then I go back to stock kernel with flashin tool (instead SEUS), I got a same thing..( but when in stock rom I got "please insert sim card")..
I tried with SEUS ="your phone updated"...
finally I sent to the company who provide the warranty..
and yesterday I just found a thread how to solve "no network problem" in Q&A..
huhu..
OK so quick review
if i want to unlock boolloader:
-flash tool 0.5.0.... and drivers
-stock rom installed
-later install again custom rom
or did i miss something?
p.s. where to find stock rom? accidently i deleted my first backup from PC.
so stock rom is like custom roms in ZIP files and using xrecovery to put them back on ot some TFT file i read about.
thanks
dangerous
people have unlocked their bootloaders for x8 before but now it is very dangerous. if it goes wrong it can= full brick which = you need to send it off to sony ericsson to have it fixed. full brick is impossible to crack. if you have a different brick then you could possibly unbrick it. only unlock your bootloader if you alright if you phone screws up. but a good side on unlocking the bootloader is that we can flash custom kernels install new drivers ( i think we can do that when our phones rooted anyway. my phone is rooted and running gingerdx and i have installed cypress multitouch)
etc... if you plan on doing that then good luck and may the force be with you

Heya guys,
Today after rooting my phone, i dled a ROM and i flashed it.
After i flashed it i rebooted it, and now its stuck at the bootscreen with Sony Ericsson. I cant open xRecovery, and i cant do anything. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it ?
Get Flashtool and the Stock ROM FTF and flash back to Stock.
Root, inject xRecovery, or use X8Toolbox for DualRecovery, and try again.
Since this question comes up almost daily simply search this forum, the procedure has now been outlined for infinite+1 times.

I don't have enough info about how to recover it. But if u stock in SE logo maybe u should try repairing it using PC COMPANION...
If it didn't work use flashtool.
U should make a firmware package and flash it using flashtool..

A friend flashed my x8 to kernel nAa-14 and rom MiniCM7-2.2.1, but I want to recover my phone to original state.
Can someone, please tell me the right procedure to do so. I have CWM recovery installed and a backup of original settings.
Do I need to flash stock kernel first? Where can I find it?
Or is it possible to simply flash the stock rom?
Thank You.

If this is true, can I flash stock kernel and what's the procedure to do so?

I'm unable to connect to PCC. It is unable to detect my device.
But I can access my memory card via Windows Explorer
restart your computer and try again,the drivers should install by themselves,if that dont help you need to install drivers

Instructions in PCC:
1. Drag the status bar downwards
2.Tap USB connected
3.Tap Mount
4.PCC will connect to the phone
But, the problem is that that when I tap USB connected i don't have an option Mount on my phone, just USB storage (this is not correct translation, my phone language is croatian)
Problem solved!
I used Flashtool and X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf
ok,good:good:
next time post your question at Q&A and not in general
Of coure the pcc doesn't detects your phone, you need the stock kernel for that, but i'm glad you find a 2.1 and solved the problem as you said.
