[Q] Unbricking problem - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I was stupid enough to reinstall busybox and bricked my xrecovery and ROM (FroyoBread v23b) but the problem is i can't unbrick it. Tried PCC which just says "there is no new software yet", SEUS just freezes on phone check and FlashTool seems to do it's job but after flashing my phone is still stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo. I'm currently out of ideas so any help would be much appreciated.

hey
i bricked my phone yesterday, this is how i unbricked it:
PCC>support zone>and pick the first one.
when it says no phone is connected press ''repair phone''
and follow the instructions.
leave thanks if helped

Yeah i tried that but it said "no new software for your phone" or something. I got a 1.6 ftf for FlashTool and that worked for me. Thanks anyway

3) Then run the updated service. It will take nearly 30 minutes to complete the software updated process.
Bricked phone?
I had the same problems the first time, i even had to take it back to where I purchased it since it had warranty, after they handed the phone again I stayed with the feeling that there was something I had to try I did it again and it stayed on the sonyericsson logo and didn`t enter the Xrecovery by pressing back button guess what I tried pressin the other buttons the menu and the home button and it enter the Xrecovery from there try doing a restore if you backedup your info if not you have to use flashtool and flash the rom
try going to Xperiax8(todo para este movil) and search Reparar Sony Ericcson Xperia X8 despues de Briqueo (repair phone after brick)
Recommended if you download a clean stock rom I used 1.6 donut and then installed the stock baseband 06 am pretty sure that flashtool has it if not follow this
download the stock firmware to your device and you are back in business
you may use flashtool to flash stock fw.now cwm may not works as it was on fw,

Stuck at SE Logo! SEUS won't work :(

Okey guys! So i have searched and read like crazy about this and i can't seem to find anything that works
It all started with,
I had GingerDx 23b installed, i noticed that Omnius now have a free campaign for all of there stuff (i think). It will last for this easter. Anyway i couldn't do anything there because when i restart my phone i need to hold the back button in and connect the cable (like normal). But the phone won't boot when i do that (do not know why)
So i wanted to reinstall a stock Eclair 2.1.. Since GDx23b don't have xRecovery which i needed for this 2.1 rom i found, i tried to install xRecovery. Then when i rebooted my phone i got stuck..
I have tried PC Companion and SEUS but can't get contact with them :/
Thank you for your time and help in advance
are you stuck at se logo or your contacts ain't coming....??

My X8 Stuck on "SONY ERICSSON" Text
Hey… I have Xperia x8
I read your post...
My Problem is similar to your Problem which happened to your phone!
When i am switching on my x8 it starts and gets hanged on the "SONY ERICSSON Logo"
My x8 is still on "SONY ERICSSON" Logo...and Nothing is Working out of it!
What i did:
I tried to install a ROM…
It said..."Successfully Installed new ROM"
Then, we all usually reboot our phone for better Use and hoping for a new start..i did the same
It got restarted but got hanged on "SONY ERICSSON" Text...i know that it takes a time of about 5-7 mins to come out from That LOGO....but i waited for more than 10 mins.
And then when i took out the battery to turn it off(It was the only way to switch off the phone by taking the battery out)
It restarted …but Then after That “Sony Ericsson” Text in showing up on the screen and nothing is happening when i am pressing & holding the Back button also.
Then for Turning off my Phone(To save my Battery)...The only thing i have to do is to Remove my Battery from the Phone.
This problem is continuing till today...its almost a week..i am trying to do some experiements...and trying some new methods searching up on the internet...checking youtube on videos for help....but nothing is happeneing for me...
I tried with the Flash Tool also…but Nothing is Happening
With the help of flash tool…it is Detecting my Phone but when i am going to Advanced Menu–Selecting Reboot–There comes 2 options
KERNEL and RECOVERY…i did both the Way..but not Rebooting…
In Logs…it says “Rebooting Your Phone”
BUT Nothing Happening After that “SONY Ericsson Text”.
I am fade up of this “SONY ERICSSON” Text
PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS Help me…!!!
i personally prefer using flashtool to go back to stock rom, then re-root and flash custom ROM. just search the files you need (it's pretty simple). BTW, did you wipe before/after flashing the rom??

If you have unlocked bootloader, flash other kernel, if you don't have use SE PC Companion. LOL your phone is stock not bricked. You can't turn on phone if it's bricked :laugh:
Relax,sit,open PC Companion, go to update service...

There is no hardbrick for xperia z , at least not in your situation.
Please try with an older firmware and keep in mind that for the phone to start the flash process you have less than a minute for the phone to be recognized by the pc before it restarts.
Good luck
