This is the info from the thread i posted at the wrong section
Code:
Hi all...
My friend sent his X8 to a phone shop to get it updated to android 2.3.7 and ended up with a bricked phone cause by that phone shop.
Now, which according to him stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" logo...Which i know is a soft brick and most probably can be saved by flashing it with PCC or SEUS or FlashTool.
I have ask him to flash it with SEUS or FlashTool, but not successful, still stuck on the SE logo, i doesn't know weather he do it wrongly or does not has any patient...
I gonna buy this phone from my friend, and repair the phone myself.
I want to ask u guys is there any other reason for the phone to stuck at the SE logo other than bricked phone? Could it be a hardware prob?
8/6/2012 UPDATE:
Just now my fren turn on the X8, it stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" text, and after a moment, the phone reboot itself and stuck at there again and reboot itself again and again...
guys, based on the latest update from my friend, can this phone be saved?
And do share some experience if u do encounter such prob...
9/6/2012 UPDATE:
This morning i trying to flash my phone again...
I flash it with android 1.6 stock ROM (1.3.A.0.62) and it would boot up normally...
I also try to update the phone from 1.3.A.0.62 to 2.1.1.A.0.6 by using PCC, but also remain the same...
Then i flash it with FlashToool using 2.1 stock ROM (2.1.1.A.0.6 and 2.1.1.C.0.0) it would ended up like this see the video below
My X8 with 2.1 stock rom:
What type of brick is this?
Thanks...
Cheers...

Nope, cannot...

Do you have recovery flashed?
If not then read how to do it and get it done then wipe all caches inc the dalvik in advanced menu..

UPDATE again:
Just now after flashing with SEUS, still stuck at the se logo and keep rebooting...

Update again...
This morning i was able to flash the phone with 1.3.A.0.62 stock firmware...
But one weird thing is i it state baseband as unknown...
but i still can receive sms and calls...
after that i flash it with 2.1.1.A.0.6 stock rom, and it stuck at the white SE logo and keep rebooting...
Help guys...

I dont really know bout the condition. Usually works with seus or flashtool. Maybe something has been changed, like kernel or/and baseband. Maybe u would need to flash stock kernel and baseband too. Try flashing them and hope it ll work.

Hmm...
The stock kernel and baseband comes together with the ftf file package right?
Where can i get the stock kernel and baseband?

try this X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf.7z
Make sure your flashtool is at it's lastest version
Flashtool-0.6.9.1-windows.exe
Tips: Just double click the firmware during flashing operation and ignore second second windows that shows information about the .tft package & press ok

[Q] Help How to flash stock rom

Guys please help
I flashed a custom rom and it got a lil messed up..
I've downloaded an ftf file but I have no idea on how to flash it.
I havent made any backup,my bad.
I'm using C5302

If you look a bit futher you will see a easy guide made by me about how to get back to stock without the use of flash tool

You have to download flashtool to flash an ftf file if you don't have any backup you lose your data but once you flash the ftf you're going to be fine

If you haven't unlocked your bootloader you can also use Sony's update service (SUS) to restore your phone.

Flash toool

yes i did. it was successful. i just got problems when fast boot flashing boot.img, idk what happened -_- huhu really want my sp back

In recovery (if you can enter that) perform a wipe /system and flash again This should fix most bootup issues.

im downloading stock .254 ftf now is it ok to flash it?

Yes via Flashtool.. After that you can (if you want) relock bootloader and restore TA partition to recieve the delayed update from Sony..

This is called a bootloop. All you need to do is press VOL UP + POWER, then connect your phone to your computer in flashmode (connect USB while holding VOL DOWN button) and flash .534 using Flashtool

Yep, just Hold Volume Down, connect to PC and flash a Stock FTF.

No just go into recovery, flash the monxdified rom zip and then clear cache and dalvik. I have done the same thing and it works perfectly fine. You can flash any 4.3 rom in this way, as you are on the same firmware.

Monxdified, iHackers and all stock based roms don't need a custom kernel (that's why you don't need to be bootloader unlocked to use them)
Just go into your recovery flash the zip. After the zip is flashed you will get an option to clear dalvik and cache.
It is always recommended to do a factory reset before flashing a custom rom, as it might misbehave. You can however try it without factory reset and then if you see that it doesn't work properly just do a factory reset and flash the rom zip again.

Get flashtool and flash stock.
If you format system you are essentially wiping your OS and recoveries so if you reboot without flashing a replacement then your phone is empty.

A little bit of hard work could have got you to the correct place..

If you wish to return to stock, it was easy, just flash the stock ROM through Flashtool and you're done.

That's not Flashtool! That's Eclipse, an IDE for programming stuff.
You should go here to get FLahtool: http://flashtool.net/
