No offence meant, but I cannot for the life of me make out what you are trying to say here. Can you possibly try and rephrase it, perhaps taking a little more time on what you want to say?
he is saying that when the phone is turned on, there is picture of the xperia phone with the exclamation mark.
i think you would need to repair the phone with pc companion.

dont think pc companion willl work in this case. tht is b'cos the card has to be mounted fr pc companion to recognize the fone which is not possible in this case.
download the update service from the sony site. follow the instructions. this might help u recover ur fone..
best luck
i try to make update it by Update Service
but show me your phone already lasts firmware
plz any body have idea about
this problem
Even if update service states you already have the latest firmware just click the option to re-install.
To the best of my knowledge, this error (i.e. exclamation mark when boot up) occurs only when you try to debrand your X10 with a different firmware that does not match your baseband version.
I've had the same problem when I tried to debrand my X10 from X1a (R1A) to X1a (R1B). Although there shouldn't be any problem, seemingly either the firmware was corrupted or it was giving false info to either PC Companion or SEUS, so neither of those programs are able to detect the right firmware for your phone, and that's why it shows up with no option to repair your phone.
After spending much time searching and reading all the possible forums, I was unfortunate to figure out a way to force SEUS or PC Companion to rebrand or flash my backup firmware (as I already saved the original ones). The only way I found to fix that problem was a paid app which would act as SEUS by forces to flash the chosen firmware.
just google "davinciteam" and pick the first link and follow their instructions.
I'd rather to fix it myself since I had my original files, but I couldn't find a way "yet" and I needed my phone ASAP.
Disable development mode in x10

I got the dreaded exclaimation mark of death after trying to do what dad6534 did. Will be interested to know the fix.
@TechGuru_x10 - how do you disable the development mode. Does this fix the exclaimation mark problem?
@dad6534 - did you have to flash back to the original firmware thru Davinciteam? Did you manage to unbrand your phone in the end?
Delete the 13740270 folder in
C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\13740270
and try to update your phone again, only this time use the one with the restore factory settings (Or something like that)
I remembered trying out every possible way to get my phone unbricked(the exclaimation mark sign) and after wasting all my time, the last resort was to go to their service center and ask them to fix it - It's free and why go Davinci team unless you have some spare cash.
I've tried changing the files in the blob_fs to the orignal ones but to no avail. No re-install button, no repair button in both PC companion and SE update service (SEUS). SEUS just told me that my phone has the Latest firmware and the only option was to Exit. PC Companion allows me to repair, but as it is at the 3rd stage where you have held on to the back button and plugged the USB cable in, it just shows me an error in downloading files.

@J3YPS - i've deleted the folder as per your method, ran SEUpdate and i get the same message - "No new software is available for your phone" with no option to repair or restore or reinstall. I'm interested to hear if this worked for anyone else.
@Aztriltus - I have tried using the davinci client to reflash the firmware but it hasnt work. It is looking increasingly likely that I will need to see the service center. BTW what did you tell them when they asked you how you bricked the phone?
Try this method:

Be careful, don't try to flash your device if you don't really know what you're doing.
This Program can only flash signed Images. NOT custom ones.
I'm NOT responlible for any damage to your device!!

You're an awesome help - it was a great suggestion cause it worked! Tried for 3 days to fix this (including paying dollars to davinci) and jerpelea's flash tool did the trick! One note tho - it only works on 32bit win systems.

I managed to root my mini pro. However, I tried to debrand it and the phone stopped functioning. The touchscreen will not respond (thus, it is stuck on the "Select language" page. I've noticed that the 2 big files in the Sony Update Service that was supposed to replaced, disappeared. Leading me to conclude that those files are deleted from the mini pro.
However, PC companion, PC suite does not seem to be able to fix/recognize the phone. I've spent over 4hrs searching and attempting to fix this to no avail. Please help.
Long shot here mate, but worth a try..
Hold Home key and the power key from a cold restart. See if it resets to default again..
Good luck I feel your pain!

Try with "Update Service":you can download it from sony website...
Update Service will help, I also rooted my X10mini, after that I removed some apps and after reboot the device was frozen on bootanimation with no respond. I was recomended to use Update Service and it worked. It "reinstalled" whole device SW.
I had the same problem et I tried to solve it with SEUS but this software told me that my version is the last one and dont want to repare or install another one one my mini..(I can't see any button "repare" !)
Anyone have an idea ?
sorry for my poor english
Thanks for your suggestions. However, I managed to fix it using the Davinciteam software.
Well I guess that your solution is not free so if somebody found anything whcih could be usefull to me or anybody who can fall on this problem please tell us

Without phone connected:
Open PC-Companion and press Start under Support zone. Then press start under Update (My version is Swedish so i am just guessing what yours might be.) You will get a small box where the options are Connect and Repair.
Try that.
No, I have an error like "sorry, we cant update your phone cant be recognized"
I already tried with software like omnius, seus, pc compagnon, sin reconstruction, an utility of root by Mogway where there is an button to repare some errors. Davinci software doesn't support x10 in the free version.
I'll go on to find a solution, tks for your help

But IS there a repairbutton ? I am wondering because otherwise you might not have the latest version of PC-Companion or something? Also , when doing repair i don't think it even checks what your phone is. You have to select it from a menu that pops up.
Yes, there is a button and i tried all the software in there last version.
When I press the button "repair", I see that the program load "update prtocol" or something like that (update service ?), then It's start the update and 2sec after an error appear in a box "We can't access to mobile phone" or smthg like that.
Apparently, no communication can be done in PC compagnon.
My drivers are ok, seus apparently recognize my phone (if he told me that I have the last version and tell me that he see my phone)
A little weird huh
Under pc compagnon there is a repare button yes.
The error appear to the point "update motor boot" (démarrage du moteur de mise à jour in french)
I dont find solution yet

I also have some problem like you.. Can you give the explanation and tools (Davinciteam software) to fix it.. 'Cause i hopeless to fix it until i read this.
Use the latest Omnius, it supports x10 mini and mini pro flashing
oh sh... I paid to fix it and now there is a free solution, the world is really nasty
Well, if anyone can't fix it with Omnius, I can give some advice for DaVinci, but I really hope that I'll be the last one to use this soft (despite his efficacity).
I hope you unterstood me
what do u use to convert your firmware to work with omnius??
I have the same problem, stuck on "Sony Ericsson" screen at startup. I tried SEUS and PC Companion to no avail. How can I get Omnius, i cant seem to download it anywhere.

Just try flash tool.......& wippe everything first...
I've tried PC companion (the new and old ones with the updates and the repair), when i try to update it say that I already have the last update, and when i try to repair (with the old PC Suite 6.011, the last doesnt have that option) it throws "failed to repair".
I have flash it with "2.1_2.0.A.0.504_GENERIC_x10A" and "Global World 2.1" its done normally, but every remains the same in the phone.
I have to mention that I can't manipulate the phone, 'cause no program or interface appear. Just the exclamation simbol inside a triangle next to a phone.
I dont know if there is a hard reset or if its necesary.

When you flash a generic rom from SE it will wipe all data. I think if I am answering your question. Here is a link to flash tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
use the 2.1.54 baseband which you stated above located in the flashtool link in the forum.
I believe the how to is in the link too on the page.
Ok Guys...
I think that my cellphone is "bricked", in this thread i learned about that... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686293
(I tried generics, older, lasts roms, and nothing.
maybe I need to pay the davinciteam software to unbrick this, but I have some doubts.
I haven't a sonyericsson service near. But I think we're getting closer to the solution.)
Thanks Voelker45!! I used the X10a_2.0.2.A.0.24_Generic.ftf from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746, with flash tool wiping the user data, and made the phone alive, IT'S ALIVE!!!

FIX!
I had the same issue when I was experimenting with ROMs and Recoverys, but not to worry, Sony PC Companion 2.1 does the trick!
Download PC Companion 2.1 from the Sony Mobile website
1. When you download and open it, click start under Support Zone
2. Click start under Phone Software Update
3. When the window saying that a phone could not be found appears, click repair phone
4. A windows like this will appear, click continue to proceed with the repair of the firmware
NOTE: All data that is placed on the phone memory will be wiped but any data saved on the memory card will be spared
5. After clicking continue, a window like so will appear. Tick the box and click next to continue with repair!
6. Sony PC Companion 2.1 will now prepare the computer for the firmware update
7. Now choose your phone model, in this case it should be the Xperia X10 (X10). Select the phone and click Next!
8. Follow the prompts to repair your phone!
GOOD LUCK!!
Always fails for me.
All process end in fail
There must be a file I need to rename or something....
tried everything now...
I have tried everything by now, here i have attached a attachment of error i get while repairing my phone through SEUS..
only option is box flash, but i think its kind of risky...
Fail fail fail..... i'm getting hopeless wif my X10
Hey,
I did some re-search and got to know that somehow my X10 flashes as So-01C in some systems, i.e. xperia arc, even while updating ..........
Anyone here, knows other ways to flash through box other than technician, coz these technicians are real idiot they can crap your phone in 10 seconds, so its better to crap it yourself...
"alternative to box flash, please ???"
Try this
Had the same problem once, when my phone would not start at all, all I had to do was connect it to the PC Companion (2.0), at first it wouldn't repair but after a certain amount of tries it did the trick,
First: Make sure all your drivers are installed, if they were installed there should be no problem.
If they were not, the computer cannot identify your phone, try installing some other x10's drivers (cause your's is bricked I assume) that might do the trick aswell.
Open PC Companion > Support Zone > Phone Software Update (Start) > Follow Instructions > Repair
It might take several tries to get it right
If this doesn't work try the latest flashtool, it should do the trick !!
There must be something you are not doing right, else SEUS/Flashtool should have worked like a charm.
see i get this reply, when updating x10..
I have tried this like thousands of times, installing roms and then removing them and repairing the phone, but this time it has gone over my head........
I need to flash my X10 Mini, but I can't find the firmware for It anywhere with a working link. Anyone that still have the file and willing to share?
There are only plenty of links to sites that are down
I tried to install MiniCM7-2.1.9-robyn on the phone and then afterwards it just won't start anymore, so i need to flash it and then use SEUS to restore it.
UPDATE!
I found everything and fixed everything I needed by just flashing It with a stock kernel.
Just use the Repair option in Pc Companion.

I'm not looking for how to do It..... Read the question before you post. I appreciate you trying to help, but at least understand what the question Is first.
I'm looking for the firmware for the flashtool so I can flash my device (.ftf file)
They guides that teaches you how to fix a bricked phone got links to megaupload (that got shutdown not long ago) and multiupload (also got shutdown) for the firmware I'm looking for.
If you can't turn the phone on, then flashtool won't help you. You have to able to turn the phone on to get to download mode for flashtool, or Pc Companion, or SEUS to do their thing.
If your phone doesn't turn on, you've got a hard brick. Which is bad.

No, it can be a hard brick, he didn't do anything to put his device in danger (from what he claims).
He just needs a stock .ftf file for mini, which I was planning to do in the past, but did only for the pro... I am sorry my friend... There is only one solution -to make the ftf file yourself, which is something very confusing and you are going to need another mini to do this. But don't get your hopes down, it is possible, at least...

There is only one solution -to make the ftf file yourself, which is something very confusing and you are going to need another mini to do this. But don't get your hopes down, it is possible, at least...

The phone it self comes to a point where there is some light on the screen, but i can't see the SE Logo anymore. I can charge the phone without problem from what it looks.
If I can get hold of another mini how can I make the ftf?
What did I do to achive this problem??
I tried to install MiniCM7-2.1.9-robyn and it ended with a phone that got stuck during boot. Then I got to a guide where someone said "Hardreset the device and use SEUS", but SEUS always says that my phone has the latest software.

As far as SEUS is concerned, you DO have the latest software. It just doesn't realise that what you have doesn't work. Select the option to reinstall the software.

Only one problem here, I don't have the option to reinstall the software at all after it says that I already have the latest software.
Can it be that the option is no longer there depending on SEUS version?

There is a repair option in PC Companion, see it, please! The repair option on PC Companion is Support Zone --> Update --> Repair.
BTW, to hard reset :
1. Turn the phone off
2. Press the POWER button
3. Press and hold home key aprox 3 seconds
4. The hard reset is starting.

I will try that thanks, but you need to hard reset before the repair with PC Companion?
I managed to find the stock kernel so now I'm starting the device, but I get a SE logo and then It shuts off.
One problem when I try to repair on step 2 (prepare step) I get a error unable to start or phone update update components. (the pc companions is installed with the newest version)
Hello,
i tried to put minicm9 on my x10 mini. It has work but sim card is not detected.
After that, i made a big fault
I used s1tools to relock my phone (by restore button) in order to see if my sim card becomes detected
Now, my phone doesn't start (led blinks one time and vibrator and no more)
I tried to use SEUS to restore stock kernel but it says i have the latest release and no button to force
With flashtool, i can't flash another kernel because my bootloader is now relocked and i have nothing in pluging menu
Any ideas of what i can do to have my phone starting ?
Thanks and regards

Hello,
i have already try this but SEUS indicates that i have the latest version of software and no other possibilities offer by SEUS except "exit" button
i got a.ftf file of generic 2.1-update1 that you can flash with flashtool if you want
pm me
Disconnect your phone from your computer
in PC Companion, go into "support zone" choose update
It will say: phone not found and give you the repair option

Thanks, i tried also this manip with SE PC companion but as SE Update Service, it says that i have the latest version and no way to repair
If you disconnect your phone from your computer, it can't say you have the latest verstion because it cannot find it and it will give you the repair option.
Once you click that, it won't check for phonetype or software anymore, it will let you select a model, download the firmware and flash it.

Yes, you are right for SE PC companion
After select my model, at step 3 (update) when i plug my phone, a window opens with "no software available for your phone, try later" (in french with my se pc companion but i translate, well i hope)
very well translated indeed no problems there
just strange that it can't find a firmware for your selected device, does PC Companion connect to the internet? top right corner of main screen (PC Companion settings), proxy settings, test...
If that's ok, then i'm lost too, sorry

yes, pc companion connected to internet
perhaps, if i could unlock again my phone with flashtool in order to flash a kernel...
but, plugin menu is empty.
No idea to force something to have plugin menu available to unlock ?
Nevertheless, thanks for your help
I have no idea, the unlock bootloader option is only available if you're on 2.1 (eclair) 2.2 (froyo) or 2.3 (gingerbread), and your phone has ICS at the moment, so that won't work i guess... i am really lost about your problem, I would think maybe try the repair a few more times, maybe SE had a server problem or something, but other than that, i don't know...
I wish you luck
one last thing...
maybe repair your phone with your sim-card removed may do the trick...

tried with and without sim card, result is the same

I've read somewhere that other people with french firmwares have trouble updating via PC Companion and things, maybe you could flash the nordic or uk firmware that is lying around on the forums here in de dev section and then try a repair after that,
You can flash firmwares with a locked bootloader, just not kernels. (sorry, i hate to see such a lovely little phone go to waste)
You can still select french as your language if it works...
http://www.multiupload.com/GM4VW1LNVV and choose the rapidshare link, the other ones are down...

Thanks a lot,
but could you help me again ? in your zip file, which file should i flash ?
Is it nordic or uk firmware that you speak or another thing ?
Regards
It is Nordic, but i don't think that will be a big problem
You unpack the .rar file and put the .ftf file into the firmwares folder found in the flashtool-installation folder
Start Flashtool - Press the flashbutton, choose the .ftf you just put in there and connect your phone in flashmode.
If the flash is succesful, turn off your phone and try a repair with PC Companion.
Fingers crossed...

But there are not .ftf files in .rar file (amss.sin, amss_fs.sin, cache.sin, fota0.sin, fota1.sin, kernel.sin, loader.sin, system.sin, userdata.sin).
Should i rename a file with .ftf extension and in this case which ?
Thanks
Sorry, i found the possility to create firmware in flashtool with these files
After flashing, i success to update with pc companion (not with seus)
But i am again face to my original problem, the phone doesn't see the sim card (i tried with others sim card from different operators)
I don't know if you have an idea about this issue, but nevertheless, thanks a lot for your help
Try the steps in here, It may work..
Basically,
(I guess your bootloader is still locked, otherwise, lock it again)
do a repair without your simcard in your phone
do a full boot without the simcard
once it's booted, don't set up anything, but turn your phone off again
put your sim in, and reboot
