[Q] Boot Loop Problem - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm stuck up with sony ericsson logo after installing the ROM CM 7.1. How to fix this issue.

Use PCC/SEUS to flash back stock ROM

Because you didn't click "full wipe" !

And u even just didnt bothered searching before posting...

omg is your s bootloader unlocked did you change kernel to nAa and post in Q/A

Actually what i did was , First i installed Ginger Dx, i can't use the phone continiously if too many apps are installed the phone get's restarted often. so i planned to change cm7.1. so i did wipe/reset data , after that i installed the CM7.1 ROM.The phone is stuck up with the sony ericsson logo screen. I heard by flash boot the image file will rectify this problem is it correct?

PCC= Sony PC Companion.
SEUS= Sony Update service.
Download programs. They are for updating our phone (and other sony phones).
We use them for repairing (we click on update and program say "you have latest android version or something like that and "do you want to repair it" !
With thoose 2 programs we fix soft brick...!

I'm stuck at SE screen too..but I was restoring a backup of gingerdx and my led isn't working when connected to pc...Tell me this is fixable please...

You have a bootloop problem, try flash your backup in xrecovery, or if you don't have back-up that is a problem.
You brick your phone, but nothing to worry. Use SEUS to flash the original firmware and install xrecovery again and flash custom ROMS..
or maybe this can help..

i managed to restore the original software, didnt had xrecovery installed but i will now

[Q] HELP! xperia x8 stuck on sony ericsson logo

Hello People.
the problem, some time ago i installed froyo custom rom, somebody told me that he preffer ginger custom, and something like an hour i installed ginger,
for that i installed clockwork recovery using the x8 toolbox,
with recovery installed ginger, and it worked fine.
then i see that tool box let me install busybox, and installed busibox 1.19
that was stupid, when i reboted my xperia x8 get stuck on sony ericsson logo.
i tried using seus "there is no software for your phone"
tried something like 3,4 times...
then tried to flash with x10 flasher, to 1.6, and to 2.1.1
no one worked, really don't know what to do now :/
I have backup made from recovery, but i can't get into recovery using "back botom", or i'm doing it wrong?

you are doing something wrong, that's pretty clear.
First of all, define "stuck" sometimes you might have to wait for about 5 minutes...
Second, SEUS with phone closed - to install again rom, will not say- there is no software...will just flash new one over what you have...provided you have it installed in the computer with the correct drivers...
Problem that appears to be : you lost root rights by changing busybox. What you could do, was to root again...using same x8toolbox...
Hope is of some help,
Cheers,
this maybe can help....

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,

[Q] Xperia X8 touch screen doesn't work

Please help me on how to fix my sony ericsson xperia x8. The touch screen doesn't respond. Does it have to do with the multi touch mod? this happened recently. very recently. i was just using it this morning. but later this afternoon touchscreen dont respond. Thanks. im using GingerDXv.11. Help?
is just laggy or it doesnt work at all?
have you try to take off your batery and reboot your phone? still nothing?
Sometimes laggy and sometimes doesnt work at all no matter what i do.
Yeah 1st thing i did was remove battery and reboot. but unfortunately still the same.
if it doesn't work you can use flashtool.or if you have a backup from your system you can restor from Xrecovery or CWM.
Mhmm.. Are you touching the screen with your FINGER or NAIL?
Try to Install new GingerDx maybe it's that.

[Q] Xperia X8 hangs up at Sony Ericsson logo

Hello. This is my final resort. -.-
I used miniCM7-2.2.1. I've tried everything that has been suggested. My X8 hangs up on the Sony Ericsson logo and I cant access the xRecovery menu. To shut my phone down, I have to take out the battery, since it wont shut down when it hangs up no matter how long I hold the power button. Then I insert the battery again; but when I connect the USB cord, it starts up automatically and then hangs up again. I've tried flashing it but it wont detect in flash mode even if the led is green. so no luck on flashing. I tried SEUS but it says I already have the latest software installed so no luck in updating either. Somebody help! T.T
SUMMARY:
-Hangs up on logo screen
-Cant access xRecovery
-Doesnt detect flash mode (even when led is green)
-SEUS cant upgrade since latest software is installed
PLEASE HELP!
do you have pcc and x8 drivers installed? try rebooting your pc and attempt to flash again. you should be able to get into flash mode. also install gg drivers.
also, i can't quite remember, but doesn't minicm7 require a custom kernel?
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.

only seus, pcc,or flashtool.. since you can't get into recovery.
i got it flashed. i figured i'd insert the battery after i plugged into pc. then i flashed it with a stock rom for e16i. worked like a charm. however, i still havent found the right custom rom yet. does anyone has any suggestions?
Dear bro,don't PANIC! its the only thing that makes us to create a bit useless threads..
try with Flashtool second time!
and if doesn't work use PC COMPANION its your best Companion
repair the X8 via PC COMPANION
- Turn off the phone, and unplug it from the PC !
- On your PC, uninstall Sony PC Companion
- Restart your PC
- On your PC, clean any Cache and Registry related to Sony PC Companion, then restart PC again.
- Reinstall Sony PC Companion by downloading it from here
- Turn on Sony PC Companion on your PC
- In Sony PC Companion, enter the Support Zone tab
- Go to Update Phone Software
A window will pop out, saying that it cannot find your phone
- Click on Fix Phone
- Click on Continue
A window will pop out, saying that you will lose all your data
- TICK the BOX
- Click on continue
An update process will began.
Wait for it to show a window with all the SONY mobile phones
- Find your phone (X8)
- Click on the phone.
Now all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions. It will tell you to hold the back button and plug your turned-off X8 to the PC, then it will erase everything, and download the original 2.1 ROM to your X8.
If Sony PC Companion STILL doesn't recognize your X8, then, uninstall Sony PC Companion AGAIN, and start the above described process AGAIN. It WILL eventually work!

Well, I can tell you that I had a similar experience recently and I almost **** my pants. After having occupied the restroom, PCC worked for me absolutely perfectly, albeit I did have some problems installing the necessary drivers (had to do it from a different machine, obviously something in the registry was messed up).
Seeing you solved the problem, I recommend you install either a 2.2 or 2.3 ROM. Don't go for 4.x ones if you're up for normal use because they are way too strong for this little device (kudos to the developers who made these ROMs happen, though).
My recommendations:
2.2 - FroyoPro v2.5
2.3 - GingerDX v031b
Both work really well with custom kernels, and are very fast and stable.
My X8 has also the same problem, It hangs up in the logo screen and I cant go into the Flashmode, If I can only go into the Flashmode I have already fixed it, but my X8 opens up every time I plug it in my computer. Can anyone help me with this problem?

OK,assuming you have probably root the phone, by the way can you managed to go into recovery mode in your phone? If so, then just copy your rom zip files into the SD card and install zip files from SD card in the recovery mode. By the which Rom and Recovery you are using?

you use flashtool to unbrick your phone? if you use it and can't flash your phone, you have to install flashtool-drivers.exe in drivers folder. everything'll work well.good luck
