I'm So Pissed Off - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was installing xRecovery on my Xperia X8.I was testing the xRecovery to see if it works or not.But my phone stucks at Sony Ericsson. Any solution to unbrick my phone?Flash mode still works and phone still vibrarate.

Hi there,
So, i assume that you have a working flashtool & driver.
Download this X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf.7z and put it in firmware folder of your flashtool.
Enter flashmode and flash X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf.7z to your phone.
Note: Your phone will restore to Eclair 2.1update1 during this process has finished

First of all, this is not a love advice forum, so the title "I'm So Pissed Off" is unfitting.
You need to summarise the content of your thread in the title, not share your feeling with us.
Secondly, have you performed a Search in the Q&A section?
Because I used the keyword "brick" and 14 pages of results came up.
So there are many members that were in your shoes at some point.
You should benefit from their threads instead of opening a new one.

I cant do anything It just stuck!

Hi! Guys This is my first post and i need a huge huge help...
I got my sony ericsson walkman w8 phone(my first android)...
I stared playing with the features of android and i learned to root my phone.
I wanted to use some custom rom on it. I did some search and learned how to install custom rom on it.
I tried to install rom called floyo(I think!) and my phone got bricked.
Then i went to this website and did some search and flashed my phone with SEUS.
Then i learned how to install GinderDX android v2.3.7 rom and i installed successfully.
I used for almost 1 week. Then I came to know about KuyaDroid rom.
I thought i was faster then my GDX rom. So what i did was i tried to install that rom..
It said unsuccessful. So ok i thought i will do a back up with an image which i already done with x recovery.
Ok then the phone rebooted with GDX all was fine.
Now i wanted to try again. I hold down the power button and in the drop down menu instead of xrecovery.
I accidentally selected Clockwork mod recovery.
"THE DISASTER HAPPENED".
My phone rebooted and stuck with "Sony Ericsson" at startup..
Ok i thought i will do a flash again with SEUS.
Now i switched of the phone(I took off the battery since it is stuck).
Now i didnt even touch the power button the phone is automatically starting and stuck with "Sony Ericsson".
WTF!
MY SEUS DOESNOT DETECT MY PHONE.
I cant do anything.............
I also searched XDA for solutions but no help!
So i posted a thread in x8 forum since x8 and w8 are identical.
What shall i do....
options...
a) go to sony ericssons service center...
b) figure it out my self...
C) wait for You guys to help me...
d) Destroy my phone and buy a new one...
Please help me..... i want my first android back alive...
Thanks for reading my story...
read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071 you need to flash your bricked phone using flasher
Ok, I somehow got through using the SEUS.... Dont know how.......
Got tensed when my first android got bricked.........phew!

Upgrade from custom ICS to official

I would like to upgrade my 2X from Nova HD Rebuild v1.1.0 to Official V30A.
Problem is that I can not install drivers for PC because my custom ROM does not support PC connection,
Then I tried to downgrade it to stock rom, but I forgot to do backup in CWM when I moved from to stock to custom ROM. Thats way I have nothing to come back to. Now I am stucked without any ideas.
Can you please give me some advice?
Thanks
Admins!! I am bit surprised about this post. How come a new member with only 4 posts can open a new (looking for customer care kind of) thread in DEVELOPMENT section?
Asking coz I think this facility was not available since many years.
Dude! This post should be in General Section. Generally Devs dont answer such things in this area. :silly:
download B2C from lg site and install drivers
put youre phone into sw mode
download smartflash
wait for drivers
flash this: http://file.qip.ru/get/EpX_YlZ5/BIN_...EUR-XXX-N.html
and you have youre ics
thanks mivv, I have already tried that. But when I connect my phone to PC, those drivers can not be recognized because my custom ROM does not allowed it

dafoxen, I tried removing the battery and Holding downvolume up & down , when booting, but in that case phone wont start.
It only boots when volume down is pressed and then it goes to sw upgrading mode. After connecting to PC nothing happens, no driver installing, no nothing.
I also tried with dubuging mode on and off before booting but its the same

cmahendra is right, the post doesn't belong in the Dev section, if the mods see it I am sure they will move it.
If you HAD to post in the Dev section then maybe you could have posted in the Nova thread?
But.. why don't you just put another rom on your SD card (surely you can take out your SD card and connect it to your PC? Buy an adapter if you need to they cost pennies) and flash it from CWM? Then you can connect to your PC.
Right now I`m searching for stock rom in zip format to try it load with cwm

You are so proud that you are member of XDA for 5.5 years but don't know the rules about creating topic in development section. You should be ashamed.

I have almost exact same problem, but mine has been already update to ICS using smathflash. But for some reason I cannot install Homero's rooted V30a, becuase apparently the opti tool keep saying: USB device not found. I already try LG drivers, switching USB ports, restarting computer, poor device by now I'm sure it feels that has been raped after so many plug in's and off's.
How do I do and how do I know that the computer recognize it in APX mode?

Exactly, you've been here for over 5 years, you should know that questions go in Q&A. And don't try to blame this on cmahendra, he's kinda right. The development section is for Roms, kernels etc. Not questions.
I am not blaming anyone. Everyone has its own opinion and that is great, it only makes this community better.
But still I cant solve my problem
hectormcesar is having one also.
Come on people, we count on you :good:
He probably got the point, I'm a wise guy, we all are, anyway time, to update officially downgrade at least the baseband which is what LG check, I've done it with gb, but ics from topo was denied probably because bb was 28g.......

I'm having the same issue as you, it seems. Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981359
You might find an answer there, it gave me some life signs:
I flashed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1617458
To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

The download link in post #1 is dead, but there's a mirror on page 6.
Question threads do not belong in Development, you only post threads in there when you've got developments to share. Moved to Q&A where all question threads should be posted.
Please be civil to each other please as you should be helping not criticising each other. Also reason Golub can post in Development is because he's been a member since before the 10 post rule was ever implemented.

are you sure that usb is enabled , and Debogage USB is enabled ......

[Q] Empty device?

Hello,
I'm new here and i first of all will apologize myself for my bad English.
Further i will ask for some effective help.
I have bought a Xperia x8 device with Android 4. .. (and other numbers)
Now thats not original/official. This was rooted etc. with Cyanogen 9.0 and one or another flash program 'nad'.
Now I read about it and i tried SuperOneClick and Flashtool.net for getting the phone fully back to the moment he was ever bought. Then a will upgrade it to the newest version of android official available for that x8 with the official Sony tools. But that is not so easy.
Now there is going something wrong with (I think) SuperOneClick, but the point is that I don't have anything more on the phone. When i put the battery in the phone, it only will start up with the message Sony Ericsson, and that's it. An 'empty device' I think, like they say.
Now my question is can and how can I repair that to what I wanted to do? Can you please explain it with much details in simple English please, if it's possible?
With kindly regards
Delelith

Hi,
I can't enter the flash mode on the phone when I press the back/return button, what now?
Greetz
Impossible, you must 'hold back botton' while connecting USB cable from both sides.
"why do we fall, bruce?
so that we can pick ourselves up."
Hi,
I have tried to follow your instructions, but its don't works. What now?
With kind regards
if you are using flashtool to flash the stock kernel and stock rom , please let us know first.
if you have problem with flashing the rom , you must remove the battery then place the battery and immediately hold the back button and connect the usb cable to your device...,it will start flashing the rom, after finishing the flash process you must wait till your phone boot itself.it will take about 2-3 minutes.

Want immediate help guys!!
