Just use flashtool. Either install the 2.1 firmware then flash the 015 baseband or install the 1.6 firmware then update with PCC.

I also used this with flashtool and flashed 2.1 update but nothing. Is there anyway to use SEUS again. In past time I used this for X8 and it regularly worked for me.
EDIT: I already have 015 baseband

Master B.JAY, there is no problem with Flashtool, the problem is with SEUS and PCC as I can't repair my device using these.
As I am saying in 1st post, I have to sell X8. So, I want to relock its bootloader and Stock rom with SEUS but SEUS don't show repair button after the bootloader unlocked.
Even I have Flashed both Stock ROM and KERNEL with flashtool. But how to relock it??????

Ah, my Padawan ... much things to learn you have ...
If you already flashed back to Stock Baseband then all you have to do is to re-lock the boot loader with s1tool ...
1. Hit up the [Guide] Bootloader and kernel guide | X8 | W8 | X10 mini | X10 mini pro thread
2. Press CTRL+F in your browser and search for "HOW TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER"
3. Follow the instructions of that section to re-lock the boot loader.
May the force be strong with you, youngling.

I followed the Procedure , but in s1tool there is no option for relocking bootloader. How to re-lock???
sorry if its over..but I need help only from you as you are more sincere in my mind.

Let me sum it up for you ...
HOW TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER :
Flash back stock kernel using "Repair" option in SEUS or by using Flashtool (if using Flashtool either flash stock firmware or flash the appropiate .ftf file below):
X8 (E15) and W8 stock kernel:
Download link: http://www.mediafire.com/?zb3zhdkodgy55ch#1
Direct download link: http://db.tt/NI2WBnUp
(According to you, you already did that step and flashed back to Stock ROM and Stock Baseband/Kernel)
Download S1tool and extract it to an appropiate location on your PC (not needed if you already have s1tool) . (Credits go to the_laser for this tool)
S1tool post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17374120&postcount=26
Direct download link: http://db.tt/OrOQO33
Turn off your phone.
Launch s1tool.exe in the folder you extracted s1tool to.
Click on Restore button and then connect your phone to the PC in flash mode (press and hold back button while connecting your phone to the PC).
Wait for the process to complete. Congratulations! You now have relocked your bootloader!
I just left out the parts where you would flash back Stock with Flashtool and where you would install the gordon's gate driver.
Now, where's the problem?
You unable to read to follow a simple instruction from above to go to the thread, search for the RE-LOCK section and do as written?
EDIT: Is my mood now serious enough for you?

i use fleshtool to repair my x8

Definitely not my fault if morons can't link to the right version of the tool (isn't it great I keep this stuff archived to have it at hand?).

previous was that as in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22380402&postcount=10

See two posts up ... there's a RESTORE button!

Yes, In your s1tool there is restore button.
I used a ****ty s1tool. Now with yours perfectly relocked.

That "****ty" expression is definitely worth a "Thanks"...
Anyhow... WOOT!
Now you can sell your X8 like it once shipped.

You are right...and Sorry for my Word..

I had the same problem. Error 140 means there's a corruption in the a cards data structure.
Did you unlock your bootloader?

When you run the ruu, you must re-lock your bootloader. Have you locked your bootloader?

you say it's bricked, but yet it goes into bootloader you can flash ruu?
i think you maybe misspoke, what happened exactly? can you show pictures?
error 140 bootloader version error is simple, it means that the main version is newer than the one you are trying to flash. since you flashed ics ruu, you cannot go back to gb ruu. you have to follow the guide here by thecubed

if u can take pics first and show me what your phone is doing before you do anything else that will be better
Please don't make two separate threads in two different sections asking for the exact same thing.

IIRC, you have to be able to boot the phone to get this method to work?
I'm having a similar problem and I tried the file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529669 to no avail, it doesn't say an error code it just reboots and goes black after HTC boot screen.
I think my problem started when I tried to flash the OTA from androidninjas; he put the ICS hboot on top and I was too excited to read so I d/l and flash the file (was named PH39IMG...) but when I went to boot it turned black. So I d/l and flash the new file, after using HBOOT to clear out the phone etc. Still no luck. And I've tried numerous GB ruu's as well as every ICS one I can find. Brick?
Definitely interested to hear the fix to this.
Before flashing ICS, did you relock your Hboot & were you running GB?
If your screen went dark, but can still get into hboot, you are fine. Just need a recovery. There is an error with the older standard CWM. So you need to install a new version of recovery.

Yes to both and I thought relocking got rid of root? So I was afraid I wouldn't be able to flash a custom rom.
Moved to General sub section, please pay attention where you open a thread next time

[T] stock FW Update softbrick issue?

I have searched this forum from top to bottom (All 18 pages of threads in the Question subforum and in General too) about the strange issue (Used to Modding and Rooting 2011 and 12 Sony's) i am facing with 1 of our sample Xperia T's (LT30p) but cant find a definate fix for it (Dont want to spend any more time trial and error as have flashed it around 10 times already).
Its on stock 3.0.3 with locked boot but everytime i try to update with either PC comp, OTA or flashtool to the next 195 FW, i get this error screen (Booting issue) after Sony logo (this image i found on one of the other pages where the person had the same sort of issue).

The only way can get back is to flash the 3.0.3 FW back on via flashtool (Had a full on soft brick when trying to update via OTA on one of my attempts, i had to repair with PC comp repair which flashed 195 but sorted the kernal/bootloader then flashing 3.0.3 via flashtool to get back to stage 1 out of the box). < Edit mite confuse!
The strange thing is i never get any error warnings or logs on PC comp or Flashtool so looks like its something to do with the phone maybe.
I have seen people with a couple of maybe fixes but anyone know exactly the issue and how to bypass to update?
1) Format SD and remove sim before flashing here in this thread
2) Factory Reset before Flashing in this thread
Before anyone asks i cant just send it back Thanks in advance!!

So you managed to flash 195 FW but then flashed 303 firmware again to try to update back to 195?
If you flashed 195 FW by PCCompanion then you have your offical firmware.....Not sure what your problem is after this...

195 has never worked for me i get this issue (Boot screen). PC companion only has 195 as a repair FW, not the older 3.0.3. When it full on softbricked had to use the repair FW to fix the Bootloader so the 3.0.3 FTF would boot.
Just want to get off 3.0.3 to any newer FW thanks

I still dont understand. If you repair in pccompanion it willput the latest avaialble software for your phone onto it. So if it put 195 on then its on....There is no difference between a reapir FW and a full FW
Repais again in pccomapanion and then send a screenshot of your
settings/about phone
It should be on 195

195 will not and has never booted into Android on this T (Always the error above).
If i use PC comp repair it will upgrade me by default to 195 (As you state the newest FW available) which wont work. The only reason i said PC comp repair helped me was when the device softbricked (No Sony logo or anything) when updating OTA. The repair fixed the bootloader so then i was able to return to a working FW (3.0.3) with flashtool.

OK.
Did you flash any 303 before you tried to upgrade?
Did you make a FTF of your original firmware?
If you can get your original 303 FW then that should be enough to fix your phone and tell your phone to update to the correct 195 firmware.
What was your original FW SI?

I have an original backup of the factory FW (That works) and i have other version's/region's 3.0.3 FW's as well and that all work too. It does not matter what 195 firmware i use to flash to upgrade and how i flash it, i will have the same issue even if its the correct FW (PC comp would of selected the correct FW SI during the update so would not be that anyway).
I could really use some advice from someone that has had the same issue as this and has found a work around, that being factory reset before hand or the Formating SD fix that i mentioned in first post. Thanks for your help anyways
Well try those ways then.
I was only suggesting that if you were trying to update from a 303 FW that was not your original then that nay be the reason.
Have you unlocked the BL? Have you rooted? If you have rooted have you tried flashing a 195 stock ROM via recovery? If you have unlocked the BL whick kernel are you currently on? All these questions you didnt give info on that would let me help you. If you have not even rooted then I would go straight back to the shop and demand a new phone.
Anyway, i hope you manage to get your phone fixed.

That will be your problem then. Samples may not be final release devices and therefore may not accept the 195 update.

[TUTORIAL][ROOT]Upgrade stock .434 to .253 - DRM & Bootloader LOCKED

*EDIT* - BUGS: Mounting the system r/w with a root explorer, makes the phone reboot.

Hi,
After looking EVERYWHERE on this forum to see if there is a tutorial to upgrade my rooted stock .434 rom to .253 without losing root, I've come across many threads explaining bits and pieces on how to get to .253, and how to get your bootloader and TA partition back in place.
After summoning up some courage, I've decided to try and upgrade my XZ to .253 and rooting it with a bootloader unlock. But it didn't end there. I then tried to relock the bootloader and restore the TA partition using information from many other threads.
The good news is, this worked. I now have:
- Stock ROM
- Root
- DRM Keys intact
- Bootloader LOCKED
- Bootloader unlock allowed = yes
Before explaining step by step how I accomplished this, I'd like to thank the following awesome members of the XDA community:
DooMLoRD , shadowboy23 , krabappel2548 , rickwyatt , DevShaft
And now, the tutorial:
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for bricked phones, failed root attempts, heart attacks, or anything else caused by this tutorial. This method worked for me, and I sincerely hope that it will work for everyone else.
Requirements:
- Flashtool
- Stock Firmware .253 - The list of unbranded, stock firmwares is in this thread
- PC Companion
- Doomlord’s Advanced stock kernel
- SuperSU zip - also in DooMLoRD's thread
- Backup-TA 8.0 by DevShaft
- A strong heart (this process nearly gave me a heart attack)
I assume you already have a rooted stock rom, so I won’t be taking the trouble to explain how to root the .434 firmware.
Step 1:
Backup your TA partition using the Backup-TA 8.0 By DevShaft
Step 2:
Backup EVERYTHING you need. Especially your internal storage and your SD-card, these will both be wiped.
Step 3:
Upgrade your phone using sony’s PC companion to the .253 firmware. Let it boot completely after upgrade, so the NFC Firmware is upgraded.
Step 4:
Use flashtool to unlock your bootloader. <- Reminder: This will wipe EVERYTHING. So make sure you have made your backups!
Step 5:
With the bootloader unlocked, root the firmware by using Doomlord’s method as described HERE.
Step 6:
With flashtool, flash the stock Kernel over the advanced stock kernel.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Make sure you flash ONLY the kernel, not the system partition, this will probably make you lose root.
Step 7:
Now that we’ve got a stock, rooted rom, it is time to restore the TA-backup.
From here on, please double check every step you take, as flashing a wrong TA backup will hard brick your device. Also, this is where the increased heart rate starts
Use TA-Backup 8.0 by DevShaft to restore your TA partition, thus locking the bootloader and restoring your DRM keys.
Step 8:
Suffer from a minor heart attack while waiting for your phone to boot. This took my XZ a while..
Now that it has booted, check if your DRM keys are intact and your bootloader is locked:
First, dial *#*#7378423#*#*
- Service Info
- Configuration
- Check if bootloader unlock allowed = yes
Second, Go back to the service menu.
- Service Tests
- Verify Certificates
- Check if your certs are all there and intact.
If the bootloader status and the DRM keys are all ok, congratulations! you now have stock, rooted, bootloader closed, drm-rich, .253 rom!
If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer them.
Better tell people to use Backup-TA 8.0< by @DevShaft instead since it's much more secure than the one in the OP which is quite likely to brick your phone.
I just used your method to clean install .235 with root and locked BL.
Everything worked fine.
However, even with this method, I get a reboot when mounting /system as r/w. Sigh.

I have the stock ROM installed 253 from sony updater,

You need to downgrade to a rootable ROM first (like .434).
Flash .434, root it, then make a TA backup, then flash .235 and proceed.
If you 're already on .235 and haven't taken a TA backup there is no way to do it without downgrading first...

so I downgrade to 434 and then I go root
Bootlock unlock or not?
and then the stock kernel over flash
and restore the TA
as I understand it?
sorry for my english
Flash this http://www.fun-industries.nl/xda/?dlid=c3VwZXJ1c2Vy in CWM or TWRP, it will fix the reboot issues.
NOTE: It will also install Superuser.apk to /system/app ... so if you have SuperSU installed, you will need to do the 'super user shuffle' to change it back.
1) Downgrade to .434 by flashing an appropriate FTF file through Flashtool
2) Root it via one of the rooting toolkits available here on xda
3) Backup TA (make sure you have a proper backup!)
4) Update to .235 via PC Companion or SUS
5) Unlock bootloader
6) Flash Advanced Stock Kernel by DoomLord
7) Root through CWM Recovery
8) flash stock .235 through Flashtool and appropriate .ftf
9) relock bootloader through a TA restore
these are the steps, pretty much
I updated my phone to 235 via PC Companion, but I didn't check if this version is rooted, so I flashed back 434, root and backup TA, but now PC Companion and SUS don't update my phone (no update available...). Can I flash 235 via flashtool or I have to wait?

Click the 'Update to 10.1.1.A.1.253' link in my signature, it will update your device and root it.
With an unlocked bootloader the SUS and PC Companion update services will ignore your phone. You need to re-lock to make them update your phone again.

I checked in service info: Bootloader unlock allowed: NO. Before flashing I had yes?! I flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235046.
Bravia engine is working.
I believe that there are some threads on this. There is a way to go around the allowed=no on an unbranded phone. I had the same, I used PC companion to update my XZ to. 253 and the bootloader unlock allowed changed to yes.
From there I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and restored the TA. Now it still says bootloader unlock allowed = yes

Yes you can, but you will have to unlock the bootloader, but its advisable to root first so you can back up your TA before unlocking the bootloader, its your choice.
Just follow the link in my signature to downgrade and root
Also, now your QUESTION has been ANSWERED I will ask the mods to move it to the QUESTION and ANSWER section for you

You need to downgrade to 4.2 not 4.3

Not sure but when im right, you can root your. 757 firmware direct(look @gregbradley 's signature^^)
But if want the old method, then look here.
1. Download a 4.2 firmware
2.flash the whole ftf via flashtool
3.download 360 root tool(when the Name is right?!)
4. Root it via root tool^^

I never mention using any root method or unlocking the bootloader
In fact if you are going to unlock your bootloader there is no need to downgrade (Unless you want to backup your TA, which is advisable)

There is no need to do any of this.
If you are going to unlock your bootloader and not backup your TA then
Unlock bootloader
Flash SuperSU.zip
If you want to backup TA (or not unlock your bootloader)
Flash 4.2 FTF
Instal dual recovery
Flash a pre rooted 4.4 ROM
DO NOT USE ANY ROOT TOOLS (360, KINGO, VROOT, BIN4RY ETC)
NO NEED TO UNLOCK THE BOOT

what android version you have right now.? you want to flash sotck firmware from tmobile. right
you need a KDZ file and LGUP program. but tell me whats you android version? 10n-20i or 20o?
because there is antiroll back and you need to know wich one you have so you can download correct KDZ file. and not hard brick phone.

I think the version 20i had before, and then I put a ROM CyanogenMod with TWR recovery. This is what shows the system now:

not sure about the unlocking maybe try with Tmobile if not buy the unlock code and yes its expensive..
to go back to stock firmware if you were on 20i
i would say wipe in twrp then go into download mode... make dure you can go into download mode first.
install LGUP phone drivers i assume you have them.
select in LGUP upgrade so KDZ will show up select it. then close the LGUP program , open it now tick the refurbished so this way it wipes everything and press start and let it finish flashing.
heres KDZ 20i and if you read LGUP link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/stock-h811-20i-images-kdz-flashable-t3308227
if you want latest 20o.. here but once you are on 20o you can not go back to lollipop 10n. or 20i.. youll be stuck there. link of KDZ in bottom if you dont know how to use LGUP search LGUP LG G4..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...ck-guide-h811-20-o-bootloader-unlock-t3421589
I can install "LG-H81120i-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip" directly with the TWR, clicking on install, select the .ZIP, and reboot? The other form of LG Up do not know. "Download Mode" not know what that is.
