When I installed x8 custom rom on w8.. I realize that pc companion detect my phone as x8.. how to fix this... some say that I should use flashtool to fix this..
I make this thread just want to know a few steps how to fix it using flashtool..
PLEASE HELP ME
This happens because of the build.prop .
because of the following lines -
ro.product.model=X8
ro.product.name=X8
ro.product.device=E15i
you might change it to-
ro.product.model=W8
ro.product.name=W8
ro.product.device=E16i
Note that there may be 2 build.prop files-
one in /system
and one in /system/bin
hope this helps

Why you need pcc?
For repair-back to stock you can use seus....for transfer data from sd-pc just choose to conect sd to pc..

You might also want to try the Xperia Active Launcher instead. It also uses the four corner system, but even better than the stock launcher.

Hello everyone. As the title says I have rooting problem on my X8 device.
My x8 was already rooted before and i had had custom rom on it.
Few days back I wanted to put another rom, while doing that X8 got bricked.
I fixed it via PC Companion and everything is alright until i try to root it.
(Following links are in text form, I just made this account and can't make links jet.)
SuperOneClick:
When I click root, first error I get is this:
i.imgur.com/JjY36qY.png
After clicking Yes I get new window popping up saying.
Unknown error(0xe00022b) (last 3 latters change every time i try)
I click OK and it starts rooting. After few sec, it freezes like this:
i.imgur.com/b9vQD3X.png
All I get here is text on right blinking every few seconds.
x8toolbox:
Realizing that this won't work i tried via x8toolbox
There i get error:
i.imgur.com/poydVDJ.png
(Image is low qualtiy, but that is maximum I can get from that program.)
I don't know what to do. I was searching forums for days in hope to resolve my problem and had no luck.
Please, if anyone know anything about this problem I would appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance.
Maybe you can....
I prefer if one app doesnt work try different apps like z4root .....etc ...dont get stuck on only one app...
Link to z4root is
http://mediafire.com/?78b3yt3gooiazzo
Download the apk...and follow the instructions...
Feel free to ask questions...

I'm pretty sure I am using X8.

Yeah, I'm using Windows 8. It may be the problem, becouse before I returned him back to normal via PCC, I had Windows 7 installed and it worked.
Thanks for help. I'll let you know what happened when I try on Windows 7.
Reflash the stock rom and try again

You have soft bricked your phone just recover your phone using SEUS or PC companion. You dont need to unlock your bootloader to install a new custom Rom. There is some Roms you could install with a stock kernel.
Use the flashtool. I don't have the link to it but you should find it easily.
Read Read Read before trying anything. There is loads of tutorials.
Well, the problem is next .. Brother was doing something with Flashtool, he connect the phone chosing FlashMode and sems he chosse Firmvare for Xperia x10, he forgot' to put x8 firmware in flashtool folder of firmware..
Now, the phone wont enable. Can't do anything, can't connect it on my computer Any solutions for this? Please guys if someone know, write me what to do.
The phone is next : Sony Ericsson E15i Xperia x8 mini one..
Thanks in advance
feherneoh said:
The X10 .ftf file that is packed with Flashtool contains s1boot.sin, so by flashing that file he flashed the bootloader of X10, which won't work on X8.
Sorry, your phone is hard-bricked.

if your phone is not getting detected by pc in flashmode try unistalling your device from computers n restart ur pc... den install sony pc companion , in that go to update n then repair your phone and follow instructions .. try these steps again again... n remove your phone battery ,while connecting in flash mode u keep battery into phone... all the best
