Hey, thanks a lot man, after bricking my phone several times and use ur guide to unbrick it. I manage to explore more bout new rom and kernel...

And why should anybody flash back to stock? If u soft brick ur phone u should just reflash the rom that ur using right now...

I guess this is only the solution for "SOFT" brick.

Does it can make phone error sometime? Or not easy to use like before? Thanks...

No error..once you flashed your phone you can get ur old ROM android 2.1.
Easy to use.No bugs....!
If u r going to install any custom rom don't forgot to root and xrecovery....

I always preferred Companion, and you just connect, but if you're in trouble the Flashtools is a good choice :laugh:
Sorry for my bad english

Use flashtool to flash back to stock 2.1. It's the most reliable method for me.

Bro, in a soft brick you can't enter to Recovery mode. That's why we use Flashtool.

Good work.
Hope this stops a new question thread.
Actually, the amount of guides meant all questions were annihilated.
EDIT: If some people can't understand this (kinda impossible because I thought it was great) then I have a guide here. It is broken down a bit more.

You probably didnt install the drivers needed for your phone to be recognize by your computer.

Not sure if this matters, but do you have flashtool installed? Did you install the drivers in the drivers folder in flashtool? No experience in unlocking x8 bl but maybr it would work.

Thanks for your reply, but it still cannot identify my device, I even tried installing all the drivers but to no avail, or am i suppose to select xperia t when they give me a list to select my phone?

Do you have PCC installed with USB-drivers?
Anyway, unzip and put LT25 folder (loader.sin) in C:/flashtool/devices/

Hello i have a the same problem with my xperia t lt30p (no skyfall)... flashtool says"drivers need to be installedfor connnected device".
Thanks

Then install the drivers,
Goto the flashtool folder (Normally on your c drive) and then into the driver folder and run driver.exe
Choose drivers for fastboot/flashmode and the ones for your phone

thanks for the tips
it worked on xperia v.

Hello,
I have the same problem. I have Sony Xperia T (Lt30p - No Skyfall edition). I was installed flashmode and flashboot mode from flashtool/drivers/Flashtool-drivers.exe and nothing. When I plugged my Xperia T to the PC with Volume- (flashmode) it cant identify my Xperia.
I am sorry for my bad English

I had no LG before so i'm newbie
Is there any chance to fck up this phone trying to unlock bootloader?

Up: u havnt answered my question yet.
Sent*from my i9300 using Tapatalk

Didnt find any good enough link.
just try follow exactly what i say.
1. Open the Device Manager
2. Locate the device you want to force to update.
3. Right Click on the device and select "Update Driver Software"
4. Choose "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
A list of "compatible drivers will be listed, and a "have disk" Button. click the Have Disk Button and browse to the folder where you saved your driver. when you open the driver folder, the list will be populated with a list of the drivers it has found . Pick the adb testing interface. Done.

dont worry it happens to these drivers. all are the same. even if its google adb driver , even if android , anything will do the same work. thing is to let the pc know when u are using adb or not.

One more question.
Do my LG has to be rooted to unlock a bootloader?

Have you read this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356349 )? If you read and try every thing and your Xperia x8 is still Hardbricked than it probably is a hardware problem. In that case the only way to repair it is to take it to a Cell Phone Repair Shop and pay to get it fixed. As far as I know there isn't a way to repair it yourself unless you have a JTAG Box and some knowledge on electrical engineering.

what is exactly did u flash??
rooting your phone can't damaged your phone
but if u flashing wrong kernel, u can brick it

thanks for the replies, I tried everything, all the guides xda but nothing, I think it's a hardware problem, but it is strange happened when it was being updated, it is off and you are no longer on however, the strange thing is that it does nothing, it is as if the back button does not work, but it works
