Hello,
I think I've bricked my X8 and I'd need some help, I'd really appreciate it :laugh:
Well, I had nAa kernel and LewaOS ported, but something went wrong and it was unstable lately, 'til it got frozen at loading screen and I couldn't do anything anymore, so I decided to go back to stock kernel and ROM, but I was hurried and I didn't pay much attention to what I was doing, so I flashed E15i kernel, instead of E15, so my mobile phone is now stucked at "Sony Ericsson" loading screen, but nothing happens.
I've been reading guides and well, it seems quite simple: use flashtool or PCC to unbrick it, okey. But here's my problem: when I have to turn my phone off -and then hold back button...- my phone won't go off: I press power switch but nothing happens, so I can't switch it off, and if I just remove battery it doesn't work (Flashtool or PCC, I tried both), so, what the he** can I do?
Any ideas?
Thanks
remove your battery, and wait 10 secs, then insert it and try with flashtool, if it doesnt work, remove baterry again, and try with pc companion, do a repair phone. that should work, i had a similar problem like that before...
pull out battery
connect usb cable
prepare flash tool or PCC
press back button
if flashtool or PCC is ready to flash
put battery in phone
wait for green led/light
if i helped press thanks button

It's not working, I did exactly what you told me, but there's no green flashmode light, just a blinking red one. Mobile doesn't have a light when I connect it to the charger either. Now I'm fearing that battery is dead

Connect your mobile 2-3 hours in charging mode & then perform this

Remember to hold the BACK button when inserting USB so you can enter flash mode.

Maybe your phone just need charging,leave it at the charger for an hour,sometimes when it has low battery the light doesn't light up immediately when you connect your charger
And then follow the steps as described at the above posts

Simply usw pcc, it helped me while I bricked my x8 in flashing another. Rom. I have no option to get it back... But pcc>> repair phone worked great...
One thing is important in your case. After downloading when you reconnect your data cable, don't forget to press back button instantly for 5 second. After that phone update will be start....
I hope it will be helped...

There is no back button
vol up or vol down button, then connect. Then you get into flash mode and green led will turn on!
I tried rooting it , no problem , after install cwm , worked fine. But right after i flash a s3 rom ( which i just realized , because the title wrote for xperia z ) , it immediately went off the black screen , no light , no led , no movement , nothing , but only when i plugged into PC , it give me a detected sound and undetected sound after i unplugged . I tried flashtool , it require me to press back button , i pressed volume down , didnt work , no led light when i plug into too. I tried SUS , same , didn't work. I tried press power button and volume up button , didnt give me any led light. Totally dead ! NO movement ! i need this phone by tomorrow ! Can anyone help me ?

I tired ! I tried flashing stock ftf , but they ask me to switch off phone , press and hold back ( volume down ) button and plugged in , i tried , just didn't work , nothing happen Help!
Volume up + power till you feel 3 vibrations.this will shutdown your phone like removing the battery. Than try flashtool again.

I don't know what to tell you but what i understand that you flashed a rom for S3 on your Xperia,that can hard brick your phone.
Did you plugged it to wall charger?no red light?

To enter flashmode, you need to push volume down while plugging the usb, if you hear a detected sound in your pc it means it worked. The phone itself won't do anything but it's connected in flashmode.

Hold down both volume buttons and the power button for 20 seconds, then it should boot!
try recharging the battery as it might be a wrong battery reading the 80%

Hi Zohaib,

Did you play with TA partition?
Did you unlocked the bootloader?
Ps:emma is only for unlocked bootloader so it wont work in locked bootloader.
