The error message and related problem is written right there in front of your nose:
The ZIP file on your SD card does not seem to be ok. Bad download or corrupted while copying onto the SD.
EDIT: If you want to make sure that a large file got copied correctly to the SD (assuming the file you downloaded is ok):
1. Get HashTool
2. Start HashTool, make sure at least "MD5" is checked and drop the ZIP onto the program window.
3. Save the MD5 hash as a .txt file
4. Mount the phone in USB storage mode
5. Copy the ZIP
6. Drop the ZIP you copied onto the SD onto Hashtool and make sure the MD5 matches.
If the MD5 does not match, then the file on the SD is damaged. Turn off the phone, take out the SD and put it into a card reader. Delete the ZIP, copy anew, recheck the MD5. If it's ok now give it a try ... and research a possible problem with the Android drivers on your computer later on.
If it should turn out that the file is also damaged on your computer ... either the download broke (pay close attention to make sure the file came in completely) or you have a funny problem with your hard drive or file system integrity.

Flashtool installs the one-and-only correct 0.1 xRecovery version for the X8/W8.

You know, that statement is plain bulls***. Flashtool uses the very same rooting methods as SuperOneClick.

Correct - try another ROM or re-flash GingerXperia.
See the edit in my post above about how to make sure that the ZIP got copied correctly.

Repair it using PCC and start all over again, but this time use super1click for rooting your phone and x8toolbox for install CWM and xRecovery
Or try to pull out battery for couple minutes and see if problem still persist, than start your phone without sdcard inside, maybe you sdcard causing it

so far ok ...but it restarted bout 10 mins ago...i scare it happen again..i really hope not, the last time i serviced my phone is caused the sd card problem

I'm going slightly mad....
I've tried all possibilities, but with no use.
Everything went bad, when i unlocked bootloader, and (tried) flashed nAa kernel to use new rom's for my X8. SEMC unlocked bootloader, rooted phone, everything went fine, but... First my phone was stuck on nAa kernel screen after flashing (it said succesfully) nAa kernel and latest cm rom based on nAa kernel. Since than, i tried 10 different nAa based rom's, flashed alfs kernel succesfully and alfs based rom's, stock kernel and stock rom, and than old rom's which worked flawlessly (on stock kernel), relocked bootloader, booted without sd card, everything. But only combo which works is flashed stock kernel and stock rom 2.1.1. Why? What has been gone wrong that now even old rom's based on stock kernel aren't working? Problem with every rom and kernel combo now is that after s.e. (or if i use custom kernel - their logo), goes custom rom logo and than mobile reboots itself and goes all over again - s.e. logo, custom rom logo, and reboot. Left mobile for hours - same thing. Only when i install stock kernel and stock rom (together in one .ftf file), everything works fine. Now phone is with relocked bootloader, rooted, and on stock rom, with everything working correct. But wont let me flash any custom rom, and i don't wanna use phone like this, because nothing is like i'm used to be (i used mostly gingerdx or gingerxperia rom's).
Please help!!

(Q) Need help BADLY

I got some problem with installing a Custom rom...
I allready got root from superone Click, got Titanium Backup working...
then i installed The clockworkmod (external sd) from the tread in the forum.
then i moved the Custom rom MODACO FR17 Fear edition to my external sd..
booted into CMW by holding VOL DOWN + POWER
backup with nand
then wiped data and Cache
then installed the Custom rom and it went fine it took 3-4 min and then it said ok
I rebooted and i just hanged on the LG LOGO for 10-15 min.
removed the battery and still the same hangs on the LG LOGO
tried flashing it all over but still the same...
i was so lucky that i could restore my backup and now it up running...

newest CWM is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098001
generally, you did everything right, wipe data / cache FIRST in recovery, THEN apply custom ROM
superone Click is not really needed before, but it doesn´t matter ...
you could update baseband first : http://android.modaco.com/content/l...lash-stock-baseband-release-1035-21-20110502/
use Baseband 1035.21_20110405 , Baseband 1035.21_20110502 is buggy !

The CWM your refering to is the one i used ? should i try the one useing INTERNAL SD ?
does it matter that before i used the mentioned CWM above i tried to use the CWM ROM MANAGER from Marked, but it did'nt work, then i installede the other CWM ??
I Allready got the baseband 405 installed
can it have something to do with the custom rom change the fileformat to EXT4 ??
I really dont undestand what went wrong ?? I have been flashing rom since HTC HERO, never had problems not even with SGS
had the same problem that it hange at the LG log, i searched for a recovery solution and i found one in this forum and found a soltution to restore the phone with NVFlash
here is the link :http://android.modaco.com/content/l...rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15-03-2011/
all you have to do is download the 2 files from there, take the battery out of your device, connect it to the computer. hold up and down and power and a device will be recognized by your system (the device disp;lay will stay black)
install the downloaded driver (the device should be recognized by your windows)
then run the bat file from the 2nd download and the device should be restored.
after that it will go into boot loop and you have to insert the battery.
then it should start up like a new device. hope that helps

you can try and download / install CWM 3028 with ROM Manger, it also used to work for me ...

one question.. when entering CWM by holding VOL DOWN + Power i have read it should say ANDROID ?? but mine Dosen't say ANDROID , it just goes from LG LOGO into CWM
okay now Im starting all over i think...
I just flashed the O2X with NVflash and beging from scratch
make sure your CWM is updated the first CWM version had issues
Anyway you should post such threads in General, it has nothing to do with dev.

Have you tried downloading the ROM one more time?
Maybe you got a bad download. you could do a MD5 check on the file to be sure.

My x8 cannot be rooted. :(

First I've rooted my x8 (15i) successfully, I installedl nAa 13 and installed a Rom. I didn't liked the rom so I flash to my original kernel and version (2.1Update). And I flashed nAa13 again to install Minicm ICS rom but It didn't work for me.. So I flashed again to my original fw.. (I'm a newbie here in flashing so everytime I want to flash a new rom I flash first to my oriniginal fw so I dont know if it's the right way). After I flsahed to my orig fw I've format my sd card (I forgot to unroot my phone.) And now I unroot my phone.. Relocked the bootloader. And root it again but when i root it and connect to usb cable open it on my computer I dont see the system folders (like Android folder) Ive tried everything like using superoneclick, x8 toolbox, flashtool to root and those application said that my device is rooted but I can't see the android folders. What can I do to see it again..? I wish someone could help me. I tried everything but it's not working. (
Try software update/reset using the Sony Ericsson programme on your computer (SEUS) - that should reset it to 'stock'?

haha!
lolz!
if you want to flash new ROM just have rooted phone and unlock phone!
then flash the kernel that is the requirement for the ROM..i.e nAa - MiniCM7 OR alfs - DingerDX
I don't what you mean?
u can't see your folder from your PC or from your phone??
if you want to see from your phone, download and install file manager or root explorer
..
heheh im sorry I'll explain it further. When I root my device and it become rooted (installed superuser) and plug it in my computer i cannot see the SYSTEM FILES OF ANDROID. Like Android Folder, DATA.. That's what i meant but the software (like x8tool, superoneclick, flashtool) says that my device is ALREADY ROOTED. BUT I CANT SEE DATA SYSTEM FOLDERS WHEN I PLUGGED IT IN..
I never see the /system folder on my pc with the phone connected. Why not just use a root browser app on your phone?

hey i've root it again the superuser was installed. And when i plugged it in again in computer and OPEN TO VIEW FILES the folders contains only a FOLDR and 2 xml domcument. I thought when it is ROOTED I can see the Android Folders, DCIM folders, DATA, But why I cant see it. (
Rooting has nothing to do with those folders. Use your phone for a bit and they'll pop up, take a picture etc.

in stock rom i dont think there is any use for "android" folder as you cant install apps at your sd(i dont remember if i had this folder when i was at stock,but how could i, its been a looong time!), but for "dcim", try to take a pic,as mentioned above!

What should i do?i mounted the sd card on xrecovery but nothing happened. i formated on pc but still nothing!!! on settings on phone it says delete content of sd card or something like that! i pressed it but it says sd card has been removed!!! please help me what should i do?

That is strange. Can you go to Setting the Storage Setting and try manually mounting the SDcard? If the problem still exist please go back to the stock ROM and see if the sdcard still wont recognize

Hmmm well as far as my knowledge is concern no. Nwei why you still use xrecovery? Flashing latest rom with xrecovery will surely gives you an error use clockwordmod recovery instead. Maybe thats what causes your problem, Im not certain.

What am i gonna do now with my phone?

Hello guys!
I recently tried to update my rom to my xperia x8 and i chose ICS minicm9 - shakira 3-0-4 for xperia x8. I unlocked my bootloader succesful and i installed the nAa kernel version 2.6.29.6 to my phone (i forgot to say i ve already rooted it and did a backup file with xrecovery).
Anyways the phone stuck at the sony ericsson screen after the kernel screen and never opened... I opened CWM , made a backup , wiped the data and tried to install the ICS but every time i tried (3-4 times) i got an error : "Can't open /sdcard/MiniCM9-3.0.4-shakira.zip (bad) Installation aborted". I tried to do my xrecovery backup but CWM couldn't find any backup files! I tried to connect phone with PC companion in flash mode but it recognises it as an xperia x10 and i can't do anything with it!!! I tried everything pls help me!!!:crying:

first of all.... cwm will never find the backup made by xrecovery because they are in different folders... for cwm to find them take the backup folder from xrecovery folder to the clockworkmod folder...
and then
reflash the kernel and try installation again to remove that stuck at SE logo problem.....
you need to install """"nAa ICS"""" kernel for miniCM9.... i think you installed nAa GB kernel and that is what creating problems..
try installing rom after that if it shows error there is some problem with the zip file i suppose... tell me if it gives error after this and see if it gives status 6 or status 7 error..
anyway you will have to redownload the zip..something might have went wrong during download.
and the flashtool recognizes it as x10 because you set it that way...reinstall it...
when it asks you do you want to "permanenty identify device?" i think you selected x10... next time it asks you select X8
Here's my opinion. I'm not sure how but if what you say is true, that you're running nAa ics kernel, it shouldn't be stuck at the SE logo. 2nd, if you're on a custom kernel, you won't have xrecovery. Third, our phones, after flashing kernels are recognized as X10's, not X8's.
@CnC-ROCK xrecovery backups can't be restored that way. i tried and failed
@OP if you've successfully installed nAa-ICS then you should not see the SE logo. try reflashing and wiping cache partition.
Well nothing worked! I have the proper kernel for my device and everything but i can't install the ICS and i did what you said me about the restore but it told me something about MD5 (doesn't match i think or something)
Reflash stock kernel.Then flash the ROM again. And finally flash your kernel back.
Please Press The Thanks Button
It's my matter how I send this.
Please stop telling me to reflash again! I told you i did it many times and nothing worked! Please tell me how i can change to the basic kernel and then i ll do the process again from the begin , as nothing works! Thank you!

He actually said don't tell him to reflash custom kernel. And to be honest if he's seeing anything with Sony on boot then he definitely isn't flashing right.

I connext my phone to the pc with the usb then i open flashtool and select xperia x8. Then i click the flash icon(1st icon) and click flashmode i select the kernel i want and then i click "ok" i wait til it says me it's done and i unplug the usb and reboot my phone.
Sorry for reposting but it has been quite a lot of time i ve posted and none respond! So! I flashed the stock kernel and backuped (the person who told me to do it took a "thank you") and now i want to redo the process... What do you suggest me so that i won't stuck again on this step??
follow instructions!!? (I guess..)

[Q] [HELP] Problem Xperia X8 (ROMs, Xrecovery)

Greetings from Colombia. The post I translated with Google translator because not speak English. Hope is not a big problem and I hope I helped. Thanks again.​
My problem is this. I have an Xperia X8 (E15i - 11w13) and a few days ago I returned my Xperia X8 to PC COMPANION Stock (Stock Firmware and Kernel) Then using the ROM: rDroid (The best ROM for me)
With my phone in stock. Decides to Flashing ...
+ Then I ROOT my phone with flashtool. All good up there.
+ I decided to install the xRecovery as always and installed (Copying 3 files to System / Bin with RootExplorer)
Restart .. And no, it did not work.
- Investigate and maybe he problem was the permissions. I repeated the process, modify permissions ... And no, it did not work
- Maybe it was the Busybox?. I repeated the process after installing Busybox from the Android Market ... And nothing
- So I thought ... and it decided to install the xRecovery Flashtool, I did and .. It worked!
Already with the xRecovery working and the new ROM on SD Card, decided Flashing.
+ Realize what Wipes and install the ROM ... There all good
+But when the cell lit New ROM test, shoot me Restarts every 10min, with a message in the notification bar that says: "It is safe to remove the SD"
+Or failed the internet or in the Market / Play Store (would not let me download any APP)
+Or And there did not return to take the ROM .. It was stuck on the logo of SONY
+Or And Not even let me enter the xRecovery
Then I play do ... TOTAL STOCK Back to PC Companion.
I returned to Perform ROOT process, Xrecovery (with Flashtool) ... All to Flash the ROM withthe rDroid Cel (The one I was using before the problem and it works excellent)
But what ... Again the same problem. The constant pulling reboot message "Safe to remove the SD"
So when I went back to try to get the xRecovery .. He returned and stayed stuck in the Logo of SE.
And I got to re-do?... Make PC STOCK TOTAL COMPANION :crying:
¡HELP ME!​
hi. i understand that you don't speak english, and thanks for the effort in using translate, but i'm afraid i'm not sure i understand. are you experiencing a soft brick now? or is the sdcard error the issue?
if you have a soft brick (stuck in sony logo), try using seus instead of pcc if pcc doesn't work.
if you're experiencing the sdcard issue, backup your sdcard and reformat it. also, install cwm instead of xrecovery as some roms apparently do not support xrecov (i have not experienced it though).
also, are you on stock kernel? i'm not familiar with the rom you're using. or is your bootloader unlocked and you have a custom kernel? and what is the new rom you're trying to use?
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.
Just helping
if u want to fix the booloop (stuck at sony logo)
just flash the original firmware by flash tool
download here
and if u want to install custom rom
- Flash the kernel
- Full Wipe (dalvik cache and batery stats)
- Factory Reset
- Install ROM

Hello. Thanks for answering Cascabel.
But I had no brick problem, or soft or hard.
The phone works normally with the Stock ROM, but with a Custom ROM works but has problems (the same problem throughout the ROM I try)
Buy a New SD card (8GB Kingston) to see if the problem was on the sd card. And it still has the same problem with the new card

No. With STOCK ROM works perfectly, without any fail.

what ROM did you use? "Safe to remove SD" was a known bug in early days of Froyo/GB.

Good news, for now...
Thanks for your answers. Yesterday test a ROM (Xperia SOUL Engine Generation4) And so far not filed failures..
The problem of "Safe to remove SD" I had in GB (ROM android 2.3.5)
+I have to test what the Xrecovery. See if I work or if I presented another problem (When using xRecovery, pressing the back key and the phone would not start and it stuck in the logo of Sony Ericsson)

You don't test or mess xrecovery if you are in custom rom. You'll soft brick even you can boot up to xrecovery and xrec uses amend scripting so CWM in custom rom is the best. Xrec uses busybox and all custom rom can't update busybox.
