Is your baseband xx015?
Also, have you enable USB debugging?

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.

Thats fine. Once you begin rooting it should start the adb service and find your device. Just follow the instructions.

I would recommend superoneclick by CLShortfuse for the actual rooting. Works great, and you can enable non market apps with the same program. One note, in the top right of the box that opens, you will have to choose either "psneuter" or "rage...cage". I think most people choose the rage option, but psneuter is chosen by default.

1) restart computer
2) uninstall drivers you have now for the phone. Download the new version (1.8)
3) Try again, and good luck.
Final thought, did you enable usb debugging?

Root OF /sdcard, it means the main directory ... Not in any folders.
So I put it on the internal sd(no a folder) then boot in to recovery and just re-install packages. Done

Are you on 2.2? If so then no, its not digitally signed for 3e recovery ... Look up in TRusselo's signature he has a link for getting passed that ... If on 2.1 you are good.

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.
i also got bricked during bootloading .. the thing is my phone is now completely blank no SE logo no indication when i am charging and my pc seems to be unable to detect my phone ...am i in a dead brick? flashtool also was unable todetect my phone ..my w8 is now stone cold it means the battery is not alive all this while ..must my phone be serviced?

[FIXED] Is this hard-bricking?

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

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.

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.
