Cant put my x8 to flashmode ..y x8 to flashmode

As the title says guys, i cant put my x8 to flashmode ... when Im pressing the back button , and im pluging in my phone to computer , the Green flashmode diod its not appearing ... a also cant connect my x8 to computer even though i installed latest PCC. Yes i did full wipe and also install another ROM but it doesnot help Really guys please help me with my problem because im running out of ideas what to do ..

Did You install drivers from Flashtool folder?
And - does Your x8 recognize the charger? Cause maybe USB port is damaged.

i did install Gordon's Gate..
Well when i plug in the cable my x8 is charging ..
i also tried to connect my brother x8 to the computer but the same thing happens , i cant enter flashmode and i cant see my sdcard ..
oh yea i forgot to add that the same cable its working on my other computer but not working on this one ;(

You have to keep the back button pressed and then plug the usb cable, and release the button when green light appears...
Maybe this helps!

yes thats exactlly what im doing , yesterday it was working perfectly but now it does not . But the key is that the green light its not appearing.I don't know what is the cause of that.

Sounds like something terrible!
Can't the x8 be flashed while in recovery mode? Once this happened to my tab, it wasn't going to flash mode, luckily it flashed in recovery(cwm) mode also!

try bootloader mode also!
---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ----------
and as u mentioned earliep that it is working on your other pc, try deleting the drivers and the device too, from the device manager, use the show hidden devices option, find ur x8, and delete the drivers! Then try again!

OK i tried to look for the drivers but as far as i can see they are not there.Hey does PCC still installs the drivers automatically? because some time ago i remember it was , it was actually saying ''installing drivers'' or something like this , but now i downloaded the newest version and there is only install bar , not any other as it was in previous versions ... maybe thats the cause that i dont have proper drivers?

I have this problem too week ago. I tried to connect and disconnect the usb. Didnt work. When i checked again, usb port on my computer didnt mount my usb cable correctly.
thanks for the thanks......

I will describe what programs showing because i have polish version and maybe you can't understand them:
When i'm trying to connect to pc companion when pc recognise phone i'm geting message PC companion could not connect with device disconnect device and try again
When trying do sof/hard reset nothing happens
When trying to pull in fastboot or flash mode pc recognise phone always the same in conrtol panel ZEUS FLASH device pc also recognise in thisa mode without battery and without pushing any buttons but i'm not geting any led Green or blue only when i'm conecting charger or usb cable WITHOUT battery it blinks red ones
When i'm trying to flash with flashtool or original update service when program is on screen asking me to connect the device i plug usb pc recognising the phone (usb connected device sound) but program doesn't start to flash or even recognise
i have also setool when i'm trying to flash by setool when program is waiting for device connecting bar is moving on down side of window when i connect the phone it is stoping like it tries to connect but nothing happens....
i was thinking to try this but i have cheked battery voltage and it is 3,88 so i thing it is fully charged:
Here are the steps I took successfully revise my phone from soft brick.
Let the phone charge (long long time = 4+ hrs) on wall charger.
Red light on (constantly - not flashing) - charge until red light off (again very long time =16+ hrs)
Unplug from wall
Run flashtool from PC and run flash .111 until it asks to put phone in flashmode
While hold volumn down and plug in USB
Red light will be back on, after a few seconds - flash will run.
Unplug USB then power on - phone will boot and die (it's okay don't worry)
Charge the phone again - after a while (or let it charge full), you can now turn on the phone.
That is all ... Back and running.
GOOD Luck.
Timing = could be different from phone to phone - depends on battery of the phone before it dead.
please do you have any idea? for me it hangs in some kind of boot mode and i don't know how to kick it fromthis and reflash if any screens can help please tell me i will do them

You have an xperia T, then how can you connect the phone to the PC WITHOUT a battery? It is not removable in the Xperia T!
Have you flashed anything to the device before this happened?

OK,
Yes thats true but it sounds similar to a problem I have come across before. But this happened when someone flashed the S1 update on the TX instead of the T.
Have you unistalled evrything android/sdk/adb related from your computer and started again.
Also, you can try another machine.
Are you on win8? That has issues with drivers from Sony.

I dont know where testpoint is on xperia T as we have never been down that road here.
Has he tried to use EMMA to flash something? That is meant only for unlocked bootloaders, maybe he has messed up with that, but I am onl guessing here and i cant really see why that would do anything to the boot...
Maybe he tried to flash it, dropped it, broke it, and thinks a software hack can help him....

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.

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

windows 10 -64 bit

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)

Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot please help

Different from the OP, but I'm facing the same issue.... Trying to flash the XQ-AT51 firmware on XQ-AT52. Tried to use flashtool on one computer got a "bundle does not match connected device error". Tried a different computer using newflasher. First I followed some instructions involving removing the .ta files, flashed. That's when I first got the boot loop and corrupt screen. Then I downloaded the firmware again and left everything in the folder except "persist_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin" and got the same result.
Tried a different cable. Xperia Companion just says the device is locked. So does Emma. Just stuck. ?

Why don't you download XQ-AT52 Firmware instead of XQ-AT51 ,
and flash it using newflasher ?
Here is the guide for newflasher just to double check. w w w.xperiablog.net/2018/01/28/newflasher-guide-to-install-new-firmware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/

Okay I was able to repair it using the Xperia Companion....
I didn't realized that I needed to start the repair before the phone was plugged in. ?

And in case anyone else is in the same situation. I re-flash the device with the AT51 firmware and everything worked fine. I'm now using the US firmware on the international AT52 version of the device.
After the repair through Xperia Companion. I just re-ran the same thing as last time (with all the .ta files without the persist file) after setting up the device and turning on USB debugging again. However this time I didn't get a prompt halfway through about flashing the persist partition.
Now everything works on the US firmware. Not sure why. This is literally my fist Android device so I know very little about all this. Just glad to have a working phone again. ?

anyone can help me

i have the same problem...

Anybody figure out why Xperia Companion fails as shown in pic above? My battery is charged too so not sure why it says needs to charge battery in Xperia Companion.

I'm also getting that error message as shown above in post # 11 when trying to repair via the Xperia Companion. Any help would be great!

Me too, having the same problem with my Xperia 1 SOV-40.

I had the same problem with my Xperia 5 ii after I re-locked the bootloader using fastboot (fastboot oem lock).
I could fix the problem with Xperia Companion. Here is what I did [maybe labels are not exactly correct, my interface is in german]:
Pre-requisites:
I did not use the original Sony USB cable, but a third party cable from Anker, also worked
Disconnect device from computer
Steps to fix:
Install and start Xperia Companion
Click "software repair"
On the bottom click "My device is not detected or is a Smartwatch 3"
Choose your device, click "Xperia smartphone or tablet"
Follow steps on the screen:
Disconnect and power off device (should already be)
Press and hold volume down
Connect device via USB cable, still hold volume down, the notification LED will turn green
Repair starts
Wait about 10 to 20 minutes until repair is finished
Screen will stay black and notification LED will stay green during the whole procedure
After these steps, Xperia Companion showed a success message and my device turned off. I disconnected the cable and started it (press and hold power button for about 1 second). The device first only turned on the notification LED in green, screen stayed black. After about 5 to 10 seconds, the device turned off again. I started it again (press and hold power button for about 1 second) until it vibrates, and it started normally.
Of course the device was reset and all data was wiped. For me this was no problem, as I anyway resetted it before.
Hope that helps

A few hours ago I suffered this, the problem with cable! I tormented 10 hours to look for other solutions to put the "ROM", being the official version (emma flasher) does not work! But it didn't work because of the cable (it was a "Baseus" cable, it was ok, but I think it was too long, 3 meters: D .
