[Q] Help! I think i bricked my x8

Hey guys, sorry if I write bad.
I tried to flash my x8 for put in the rom GingerDX v31b. Anyways... I think my USB cable was broken or something, when I tried to flash baseband 015, it was flashed but then I power on my phone and... Boom! That image appeared: a triangle with a exclamation sign and a phone .
It reboots again and again, my computer doesn't recognize the phone. I need help guys. Sorry for bad writing.
On the other hand.. I have my phone with unlocked bootloader, and I installed so much roms. Any question? sorry if I forgot something. Thank you guys and sorry again if I put the thread in the wrong place.

Look under your battery inside the phone. There is a number like 10W34 or 11W10
What is your number?

1.turn of the device
2.open pc companion
3.click support zone
4.click update without connected phone
5.It will ask you about repair(something like that..)
6.click yes
7.wait the program to prepare the pc
8.chose the x8 from devices list

Ok you flash something but WHAT?
All i know that you have 11W16 and you can't hard brick that(unless you are really..... )
Anyway let's help you out
First of all,how many % did your battery have before flashing?
If under 10% then try to connect the charger
if it done't help keep reading
What did you do with flashtool--->FLASHING or UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER?
If FLASHING: What did you flash,please write down name of file
If UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER:
Try to turn on you phone--->If it won't turn on---->try to connect it to PC in flashmode so FLASHTOOL can recognize it
If FLASHTOOL can't recognize it try with PCC.....if that doesn't work either see does your phone have any Signs of life
If you'r phone is completly dead(no sign of life) than it's probably a HARD BRICK
I hope i helped :good:

big THANKS

First of all THANKS A LOT for your effort, I mean: really THANKS!!!
So let me tell you a story
It was my forth x8 phone that I've tried to install CM9 on and previously it went very well but yesterday I've did it in a hurry and forget to change the flash file on the flash tool and when I click on the magic button with the flash sign I've realized that the x8 was flashed with x10 firmware the default firmware on the flashtool program (really stupid mistake ). After that the phone turn off and went on haven.
After I cold my head and start to search for new x8 (to replace the broken one) I've realized that the phone has 24 month warranty and the first thing that I did this morning was to return the phone to the shop that was bot from.
I hope that some of you out there had 5 min lol session from my experience in the story, and please, If somebody else thinks that he knows how to do it without reading the manual - this are the consequences!!!
The only way to bring this phone alive is with riff jtag box that I didn't have.
P.S. **** happens

Yes a few people from forum flashed wrong firmware and got hard bricked....amm it's hard brick so they will replace your motherboard
I am glad to help

Follow the rules and there will be no problems. The mods already warned you and shut down your threads and you just keep creating more, giving no information when needed to even fix the problem.

Hi chrisschlagal,
did you check the port number in windows/linux device manager after connecting the device? Did you set it to port 41?

Go get the stock rom for your version and flash through Odin. It was kinda stupid for you to flash a G2 recovery in the first place.

The only thing you can do from this point is flash a stock rom for your model through odin. I've done it before.

Hi,
try one finger on button volume down and then additionally slightly touch with this finger power button, too. It will boot into Recovery mode.
For rebooting via windows/linux command window usb debugging must be enabled in settings.

[Q] Rare Case - Red LED always on while screen is on

Alright. My brother bought a used Xperia Z about 2 weeks ago. After using it some days, suddenly this happened. The red LED always stays on while the screen is on. And this is a rare problem. I don't see any problems like this before in XDA. The phone is not rooted nor the bootloader has been unlocked. Can someone help fix this problem, or tell me what partition is damaged, etc? I can't confirm this is a HW damage coz it's not dropped, or punched, etc The red LED acts normally if the screen is off (e.g. while charging, notification, etc).

xperia sp stuck in bootloop!

hello guys im new to sony, and got my xperia sp just 1 week ago!
here's what i did.
1. rooted using towelroot
2. installed super su from play store
3. installed twrp with a tool,
4. copied xperianzev3 and gapps to sd card
5. backup
6. did wipes and flashed rom and gapps via twrp
everything went fine and the rom was good,
i was stupid enough to boot into recovery and restore the backup i made( boot.img also)
still the phone was working but gapps were crashing repeatedly!
so i booted into recovery but there was no recovery! i installed the recovery again with the tool
now the phone is stuck in bootloop, is constantly rebooting ( first sony logo, then xpria then the color splash, then reboot!)
please help me with details! i know nothing about flashtool , fastboot!
my phone is c5306 factory unlocked, locked bootloader!

Download the stock .FTF file for your Xperia SP model. Download Flashtool by androxyde and also install Xperia drivers for your Windows pc which come along with the Flashtool.
Place your downloaded stock .FTF file inside (C:/Flashtool/Firmwares) here C is normal drive where Flashtool installs you can respective drive with which you want. Then make sure your phone is switched off.
Open Flashtool and thn hit smart lighting button on top left and from there select flashmode and click OK.
There you will see your downloaded ftf if you placed it under firmware folder.
Now just select it and click flash and wait for the Flashtool to load files. Once it's done then you will see a menu popping up saying to connect your device. With device switched off press and hold power button and Volume down button to connect it into flashmode and that's it wait for the flashtoool to do the job. Once it is complete then disconnect your device and start it and wait until it loads.
Hope I helped. Hit thanks if I did

Ok so im sorry to say that the Firmware should be the problem. I suggest you download the stock FTF file for Singapore, my country as it seems that your stock FTF file might have been uploaded wrongly. There is also a chance that your phone might have a NAND error which means that your hardware might have a hardware error.

If PC recognizes your phone, can you use that to boot into fastboot mode?
Either use adb command "adb reboot fastboot" in PC
Or press and hold VOLUME_UP button then connect your phone to PC via USB (should see blue LED)
