Well, i've unlocked the bootloader (s1tool sayed it was "SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE" , and then r8a029) xperia x8
Then i flashed from flashtool (the 64bit version) the nAa ics kernel.
However when i turn on the phone it vibrates , the lights and leds are on, but nothin else. Then it shut down. So i can't access recovery or flashing something else with flashtool because it says that drivers are not installed.
I think it's not hard-bricked because it has some reactions.
Any idea?
It's not hard bricked. Hard brick is when there is absolutely no response from the phone.
Repair using pcc and try again.
And yes, your bl is unlocked. Grats

Never got that error. Did you install the x8 drivers? And you're flashing the right x8 kernel, right?

How did you find out that flashtool was flashing kernel. I have kept log level to debug, still I don't see any statement indicating tool is trying to flash kernel. In fact I tried to flash just loader and even that failed with same error.
Your reply will help me narrow down the possible causes. Thanks in advance!!

Try installing GordonGate driver pack. Seems you have problem with usb driver.

If you use custom roms you need baseband that ends with 015
It is recommended to use 015 baseband
If you want to thank me please press thanks button.

Disable your antivirus and download x8toolbox again, in that particular order. Only then run the program.
You can enable your antivirus back when the whole process is finished.

Have you tried:
1. repairing completely with PC Companion;
2. re-rooting?
you should do a
repair with SUS followed by a factory reset (internal wipe) under settings then try rooting it again.

Hello I'm not able to install fastboot drivers from my xperia T on my pc. I have the setup file in the right map under sdk, extras, google, usb_drivers. When I try fastboot with my phone, the device pops up as unknown devce. When I try to install those drivers windows says there not supported for this device.
Windows 8 64bit
Xperia T Stock (only root acces)
help pleas. If needed I also can enable TeamViewer;
Goto the driver folder of flashtool and run drivers.exe
choose drivers for
TX, fastboot and flashmode
I'm trying to install the flashtool, though during installation, my Pc crashes... Need to solve that first :/
