Hi, I lately asked for the Stuck and I got it fixed after all, however, suddenly my screen stopped working and only my LED is working now, I'm gonna send it back to Sony anyway.
What I'm trying to do is Remove CWM so the pink LED in the boot will stop blinking, Flash a stock TFT and Relock my bootloader, Could someone help me step by step doing this, I've been trying all days and can't get some fix, I'd like to send it back with stock settings.
Also, my Flashtool isn't recognizing my device at all when I try to boot it into Flashmode, fastboot does work.
Regards

I unplugged my phone when the flashtool told me to.
Now i can't boot my phone, can't even get to the SE logo.
I tried everything i could found.
SEUS, PCC <- neither worked.
As for flashing, same error, turn on unknown sources and debugging.
Help please..

Well tried everything.
I think it's in the 'press back button' mode, cause it automatically bypasses the pop up screen in flash tool.
I reinserted the battery several times as well. Same thing, vibrates continuously if i kept pressing the power button. Oh and the green led flashes when it's vibrating.

...i recomend you to retry everithing... that is all we have...
(unplug everithing from batery,sd card and sim card)
only usb cable....
it seams you are in flash mode...
one time i manage to boot xrecovery from my bricked phone after many reboots, if you do it install rom from there.
also try from other pc, from other usb input on pc.
it dont sound like full brick... i think
try every thing even if you are sure it will fail.
But i can't see my SE logo.. I'm guessing that my screen is somehow corrupted?
Oh and i can't boot up at all.
The vibration and green led light comes up continuously if i kept on pressing the power button.
Do not worry... you just need to update your phone with Sony Ericsson's update service. If you had search the general section you could have found how to fix your phone... take a look at here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11934117&postcount=7
I think the best choice is flashtool.
You just download the original firmware that you want (1.6/1.6 chinese/2.0/2.1/2.1 chinese) and flash it directly.
Flashtool also has the advantage that you can flash the baseband (if you already have iton your PC) right after the firmware.

His problem is that SEUS wont work, if YOU had read through the posts you would have seen this.

I saw from another thread that if the SD card was used for App2SD before, it can fuxk up the phone after falling back to stock rom.
Mind to take out the SD, or reformat it before start up the phone?
i think, you should retry SEUS method again. i bricked my phone last time and SEUS seems did not work for me. i tried for few time until somehow it works.

A SD card with two partitions, can negatively affect when install a custom ROM on the phone?
If so, I think I know what's going on here...

Hi!
I just rooted my brand new LG optimus 4x HD, and when I was going to install cyanogenmod on it, the phone stopped working. I pressed to restart in recovery and installing the rom, but when it was about to restart, it only says something like: unrecoverable boot loader, and something with kernel. I don't know what this means, but I hope there is a way to fix this, because the phone is brand new, and now I can't even start it.
Some suggestions?

Just flash original stock KDZ file with kdz flasher.
If you want to install CM, you do not need a rooted phone, but an unlocked bootloader.
Check the respective threads for details on how to unlock the phone and then flash CM.

ok, i'll try that in a couple of hours when I get home, Thanks everyone! I'll be back if there is another problem
in the lg pc suite that comes with the phone there is an option in "Device" for "emergency firmware recovery" this should be a relatively easy way to restore your phone if it allows you to do it without booting up otherwise use the method posted earlier. to get into the correct mode on the phone turn phone off, then whilst holding vol- plug in the usb (don't press power button) this should enter software upgrade mode.
after this you will lose root and if you unlocked your bootloader will relock it.
i used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256392 all in one tool to root and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40918727&postcount=108 to unlock bootloader, you can use the all in one tool (from rooting) to install cwm after you have unlocked bootloader.

Is there something i can do with ADB sideload?

to get into S/W upgrade mode, remove battery, insert battery, hold the vol-, and plug in a usb attached to a computer (keep holding vol-).
hope this helps. also try a different pc usb port or a different cable (just to eliminate any variables)

I don't know why didn't you understand my words but glad that you are running well now. For CWM or a custom rom, you need unlocked the bootloader not root.

Is there anyway i can dowbload lg+ tag and quick memo? It isnt included in the rom :/
No, but I did a factory reset and flashed the rom, and then the stock apps werent included

Hi astr_x,
Do you have any example links for the respective threads you mention? I have tried adb and fastboot. I hold Volume down + plug into my computer and I get the Unrecoverable bootloader error that was mentioned above. In fact, I get this error even when I plug my phone to a normal plug (and not PC). Anyway, I connect my phone to my laptop (I always get the error mentioned) and when I type the relative adb+fastboot command in cmd (after installing all the relative drivers), I get "Error: Unknown device".
Any thoughts?
Hi guys,
Probably game over for me but just thought I'd ask. Got C5303 with locked bootloader but had rooted, installed the recovery and flashed cm11 on. So tried to update, cleaned device from recovery but ended in a cyanogenmod bootloop. Tried again but crashed in recovery, not sure if it's possible but seems like I have deleted the recovery and there's no rom installed at the moment. Any way of getting it working again?
Can you get in fastboot modus?
If yes flash a kernel with recovery. Boot into recovery, factory reset, and flash new rom.

Finally flashed a generic 4.3 after trying for the third time after installing all the drivers. Thanks for getting me to persevere. Much smoother than I remember the branded firmware it came with at the moment, might stick with it now.
I was using CM12 for quite a long time. Then I received an OTA update to CM13. After using it for a few days the device suddenly crashed and wouldn't switch on since then. Whenever I try to switch it on, it vibrates three times. If I connect a charger, it vibrates three times. If I connect to my PC, it vibrates three times.
Sometimes suddenly it boots up and then again crashes in the middle, and vibrates three times.
Is it some kind of hardware problem? :crying:

Hey there! I think it's some infection from the CM ROM. The same happened to me.
The best you can do is submit your phone to the centre, that is if it goes into flashing.
I think it's some ram problem or CM's internal boot file corruption, after the latest OTA.

Is your bootloader unlocked? If it is, fastboot the right kernel for x performance and your firmware (androplus or stock) then try flashtool again.

Thanks for your answer. Bootloader is locked. Im runnin out of ideas. fastboot commands ends up with "command not allowed" :/
Boot to the welcome page again, then lock the screen for 10 seconds or so, then unlock and repeat a few times. Screen should be responsive then. I flashed XZ firmware on my xp as well, auto rotate and proximity sensor are also borked.

try to flash sin files from firmware, via fastboot (flashtool). if doesn't work, unlock bootloader and try flash stock via fastboot without flashtool, or uninstall all drivers, and try from the beggining. Goddammit i was want to flash my xp to xz, empty desire, but i was tried custom roms, all works only camera won't

I was tried to flash xzs stock image to x performance, and wont boot, wont recognize pc like a somc device, twrp wont flash cannot mount partitions. nothing
Have you tried using the Xperia Companion app on your PC? The software repair tab?
1. I honestly wana flash XZ rom on XZs to try! since both are very similar devices!
2. wrong kernel means! device is STUCK on black screen! / sony makes beasts, / not easily to hard brick
3. PRESS POWER + VOLUME UP keys together and hold for 15+ secons untill xzs JERKS thrice! , release both button atonce,
4. now device is FORCE SHUTDOWN out from any bad flashing!
5. try connecting it in to flashmode now! , it should work! ,
6. if you ever able to boot in XZ or X, (android 6.01) build, try extracting drmkeys from xzs , you will be doing something WONDER !!!
7. if everything fails, the rubber band trick works! , tie across (horizontally) the xzs in a way that volume downkey is always pressed by rubber band. keep it overnight. the battery will drainout to zero and device will sleep. then connect to wallcharger, charge it overnight untill u see red blinking led and finally red led then NO led. at this point try connecting your device in flash mode
NEVER BOOT AGAIN! once you are out from this kernel! whenever device shuts down, immediatel connect it in flashmode
