[Q] Cant start Phone. Stucks at SE Logo - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a Problem with my Xperia x8. I rooted it before a while and tried to make a custom rom. I did this more times before. But this time after I intalled the custom Rom and rebototed, the phone stucks by the SE Logo. So I tried to flash it with SEUS. But this says that is already the newest Software and i can olny press the Exit Button. The Repair Button isnt there. The Same with PCC.
I also tried to flash it with the Flashtool but i cant find the 1.6 kernel anywhere. All the Links I find are dead.
I dont now what to do now.
I hope someone can help me.
Regards, FiireLove

just download the stock 2.1 firmware and flash it with flashtool. or use seus.

sorry about that. just get the 2.1 firmware, not the kernel unless you've unlocked your bl and flashed a custom kernel. and full wipe if you're going to flash other custom roms afterwards.

You don't need the kernel. Flash there 2.1 stock firmware with flashtool and that's it.

[Q] Problem Flashing nAa-13 Kernel

I want to install MiniCM7 2.2.1, I understand that the nAa-13 kernel is required before installing this.
I have tried flashing this kernel but get the error: ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
My phone details are:
Xperia X8i (E15i)
Firmware: 2.1 update1
Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel: 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
Build no. 2.1.1.C.0.O
I tried installing the mini CM7 rom without the nAa-13 kernel and this soft bricked my phone. I had to download a stock 2.1 rom and reflash it.
Anyone know where I am going wrong?
Thanks in advance

You have to unlock your bootloader first before you can flash custom kernels.
Guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225
If you find it too complicated, there are links to other guides in the OP. Make sure that your phone's manufacture date is 11W28 or below.

yes you can
from MiniCM7 you can directly flash he ICS kernel and ICS ROM without any prob
if you stuck on logo or boot animation just wait
or flash it again..kernel and ROM
and dont forget to backup after flash kernel,, then factory reset, etc after flash the kernel

try to reflash the whole system with Sony Ericsson Update Service. If your phone can be switch on then just flash the kernel with Flash tool, and try again to access the recovery. Good luck
if you still can connect your phone to PC, there's way to safe your phone

(Help) E15a Stock 2.1 Firmware

Hi, I was trying ROMs in my X8 and now I want to come back to the original stock 2.1 firmware, but the PC Companion says that there arent updates for my phone, so I cant flash it using companion.
I want tu use the FlashTools but I cant find the E15a firmware becouse all the links are in megaupload or are dead. I only found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575266 but I dont stand what you have to do with that X8.sin, really I dont stand nothing in that thread, I need only the E15a tft and there says you have to build it...

Did you? Try to find the Sony Update Service (not Sony Ericsson ... - it's old version and doesn't work). After install it you can install Stock software, even if it detects correct - as the restoration in case of problems.

[Q] Cant install any custom rom! :(

Dear friends,
I always stuck at SE logo whenever I try to install custom rom. Here is what I do:
1. Root My stock 2.1 with Flashtool
2. Install Busybox with flash tool
3. Copy xrecovery's 3 files to system/bin
4. Restart in xrecovery and Choose Install custom zip
5. After installation, I reboot and stuck!!!
I have tried "MiniCM7-2.2.1-shakira" and "GingerDX-v029-shakira.zip"
Any Help?? I dont want to unlock my bootloader.
Thnx
"MiniCM7-2.2.1-shakira" and "GingerDX-v029-shakira.zip" uses custom kernel.must on unlockbootloader
use gingerdx v29 for stuck

No just find the baseband file and flash it on flashtool

i recommend to you to start from scratch, 2.1, root, flash baseband, install busybox, install CWM recovery, the full wipe and flash rom, you can flash the baseband with flashtool, and i think there is no risk, i have done it several times, the baseband xxxx15 is required to flash custom roms.

[Q] Soft bricked X8

Hi guys. Today I tried upgrading GingerDX from v030 to v031b but I mistakenly downloaded (and flashed) Alfs/nAa instead of Stock kernel.
Now the phone screen won't pass the Sony Ericsson boot scree... I can't find the key combinations to enter into CWM recovery menu. Is there any other way I can flash the proper ROM using Flashtool? I found this guide but I don't want to go back to the stock kernel (if possible).
Thank you!
You mean to. Say stock rom??
You are already on stock kernel...
& no other option you must follow that guide if you can't unlock bootloader!
see boot animation without rebooting

Right, I already have the stock kernel, but I flashed Alfs/nAa ROM instead of the Stock one (from the download options) and now the phone won't pass the bootloader... Will try that guide since I can't enter CWM recovery using the key combinations I found

1. Use CWM to flash GDX!
2. Wipe dalvik cache that you forgot..

It I'll be great if everything comes from one place instead of having to root using guide A, install CWM from guide B to end up using XDA's guide to install GDX. Just un idea, specially for noobs

Well, when I softbricked my X8, I never used my PC to unbrick it. I will just go into the recovery and flash a working rom. Problem solved..
But I can't figure out why he is sayig he can't go into the recovery. The button patterns remains the same no matter what rom you are on or what kernel you use. But I can be wrong.
Anyway did you do all these steps:
# Wipe Full System
# Wipe Cache, Dalvik-Cache
These steps are very important. But we often forget them.

We dont see the sony ericsson logo on custom kernels..
it is seen only on stock kernel.
so there is a high possibility that op downloaded the wrong rom..

if you use rom for stock kernel you can see the GDX logo...that is part of boot animation. alfs shows WLAN version not GDX. the Sony Ericsson logo is of stock kernel. so if you flash a rom for custom kernel you will still see that logo
it is possible (as dagger said) that OP downloaded rom for custom kernel.

Go to Here to read and find your answers. If you're still stuck, then ask again. Even though there a few custom roms that can be flashed through Odin, I suggest you avoid using it unless you want to flash stock firmwares.

Hello. Firstly, I'm sorry to say that I don't have much experience as mine came directly from ICS. I can suggest a long roundabout way which is to update your android vers. from GB To JB through Odin procedure first, then just flash philz safe kernel. and then flash any roms u want. Or if you just want stock JB, then u can download stock JB firmware n flash it through odin.
Edit : Go Here And watch the video and read. The link for the kernel provided includes CWM. After Installing CWM, you can directly flash philz safe kernel, reboot to recovery, do a clean wipe and formats (Follow OP of the rom you want to install)
