Did you unlocked your bootloader ? And which CM rom are you using exactly ?

relax dude!
maybe you can try this!
- first download X8 E15i 2.1.1.C.0.0._un.ftf from filecrop
put in the firmware folder on Flashtool
- flash that kernel, so you get your phone in 2.1
- root your phone with flash tool by clicking the cross icon
-unlock bootloader (remember do not unlock BL for 11w29+)
- flash the kernel
- backup
- factory reset, wipe data, etc
- flash your ROM
Done! :laugh:

Please search for Xperia x8/w8 Update Service setup in google and install the software in your PC then do the below steps.
1) switch off your phone
2) Press the back button continuously and connect the USB cable from your system to phone.
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,
but my w8 is not in the list of phones in SEUS..............can i install by selecting x8..................plz reply fast

[Q] Sony Ericsson text won't disappear

hi, I am having trouble booting my mothers' X8. She was using mini cm7 and it was starting to be very slow so I backed it up and flashed it again. flashing was completed successfully but when I tried to boot the phone, the Sony Ericsson text did not disappear. I left it running whole night but nothing happened. I can't even boot to xrecovery. What should I do now? Is there any way I can get the phone working again?
thanks a lot!

so I downloaded the stock kernel and flashtool, but the app won't recognize the device. it still shows that I should hold back button on my phone while plugging the cable. I was holding the button for about three minutes but nothing changed. what should I do?
edit: oh and the red LED is flashing.
edit2: nevermind, battery was drained. now I just need to find drivers for my x8

It's just soft brick so you should have flashtool and some ftf files for your device maybe stock firmware and baseband update so you can unbrick your soft bricked device for any time. Just enter the flash mode and flash it! That's it! Just some advice for you
PS. Don't say thanks. Click "Thanks"

HAlf dead??LOL phone don't boot after custom rom installed

Hi there all,
I think my phone is half dead??
i installed KA06 Xperia Z Revolution custom rom before( it ran great ) and today when i downloaded
this rom ---> [ROM][CM10.1][AOKP][PA with HALO & PIE][OVERCLOCK 1944 MHz] PAC v23.0.0 - 0611
1) I put the zip into sd card then use the CWM v6.X to install from sdcard
2) booted the phone and it does show up PAC start up screen, i notice the CWM has changed??
3) I read the rom has a boot problem which cause the screen to black out for a moment but so far i've been sitting here waiting for it to boot for hours ( i have reset it time to time and went into CWM and clear devik caache, cache etc)
SO now i have my phone stuck on the black screen, can anyone please help me?? i need some step to step guidance as my pc can't access my SD card now i can't put my KA06 back on to reflash.
please don't tell me i bricked my phone =[
many thanks
No sir you didnt brick your phone.....
Just reflash your stock sony rom.... And then flash the paranoid android.....
Had the same problem with me too.....
Reflash the stock sony rom via flash mode.... On flashtool.... Boot it up.... Then once it boots up.... Poweroff and flash the paranoid android kernel....
To enter flashmode poweroff the phone.... Press the volume down key and then attach the usb cable

Hi, i got my phone working now, thank you very much.
I am now clueless on how to flash the kernal?
I unzip the pac rom, extracted the boot.img ,on Flashtool i selected fastboot and 'select kernal to flash'' but i am receiving
''ERROR - This action can only be done in fastboot mode''
please tell me what am i doing wrong?
Do i need to re-do the fastboot thing from andriod SDK? DO i try to flash from Terminal( i'm using mac)?
cheers

You need to connect in fastboot mode, power off and reconnect the cable while holding Vol+ button until your led turns blue.

No you don't need to unlock the boot loader to flash via flash tool'you need the drivers

you will need to unlock if you want to flash a custom kernel ..

Is your bootloader unlocked? If not, you cannot run a custom kernel.
Flashing just the stock kernel for your firmware with Flashtool should fix your problem.
