You Have Soft Bricked Ur Lovely X8
Yaa U have bricked ur Mobile.....!!
To Unbrick Ur X8 Download Sony Ericsson PC Companion N Ur X8 Drivers(Optional)If PC Recognized Ur Cell
Connect Ur X8 To PC Open PC Companion Open SUPPORT ZONE>Start> Then In Blue Colour Repair N Follow On Screen Instruction ONE THING Diz Will Take Back u to Ur Original Firmwire N U have to root it again...(BootLoader Will Be Unlocked Dont worry ) PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED YOU ALL THE BEST
Normally CM9 is not for our X8...As far as I know, only Paul's ICS on CM9 is available for X8..
So, did you flashed the custom kernel? (I think it works on nAa kernel...If your phone stops on the SE logo that means it still has the stock kernel, and that might be a reason for this, because installing a rom that runs on custon kernel, in a phone that still has stock kernel, you end up stuck in the SE logo screen.
If you still have stock kernel, you should unlock your bootloader, flash nAa kernel with flashtool and then try to install the rom.
(if you haven't unlocked your bootloader you should check the appropriate thread that informs about the risks of unlocking and if your phone should be unlocked or left locked).
soft brick you phone is still fine, you need to use flashtool, PC Companion or SEUS to restore stock os,
flashtool was the best solution when i had this problem last week,

On the W/X8, if you power off the phone and press the Back key while connecting the phone to the Computer it will "boot" into Flash Mode. The phone actually shows nothing at this point ... you'll only see that SEUS or Flashtool are able to communicate with the device through the "SEMC Flash Device" driver that pops into place when connecting the phone in this mode.
use this firmware.Xperia X8 Stock 2.1

Your mother let you root her phone?
Try pressing camera + volume up. ANd check if OpenRecovery folder and update.zip are still and correct in root of sdcard.
