Hey guys, I'm new to XDA, I read the rules and everything but I couldn't fix my problem... I rooted my phone with superoneclick thingy... I had the superuser program.. any way, I was bumped when I found out that SE won't bring 2.2 on X10i so I wanted a new 2.2 ROM so I searched and found a thread I can't remember which one but it downloads a file named XAR.rar. It had 4 steps, on step one I don't know what happened but "THE USB DEBUGGING IS OFF AND THE SYSTEM IS BRICKED".
I start the phone, SE appears followed by a logo "docomo NTT" then the screen is pitch black... for several hours... Can't use flash tool, can't use SEUS... etc.
Please, is there a fix!!?

You've tried re-flashing firmware but cannot get flashtool to recognize your phone?
Try taking the battery out, then get flashtool set up, plug everything in and hold the back button, and then put the battery back in and continue to hold the back button.
Sometimes, it takes a bit for the 'puter to recognize the phone with flashtool because it's had the USB ID re-assigned. Mine (on windows 7) will re-install the USB driver when I'm having severe issues.

Thanks for replying,
I tried flashtool and it did recognize it... it started but aborted due to "USB DEBUGGING" being unactivated. And now my phone battery is dead "I think" coz after a day and a half staying awake searching and trying stuff, I forgot it open on the dead screen and fell asleep. I woke up with a new problem... red light appeared. I searched for that and it appears to be "since I didn't do anything" the battery is dead. I put it on charger for like 9 hours and I came back and the light's still there. I don't know if the phone IS charging or not. I don't have another way to re-charge the battery except the charger and USB cable.
I have drivers, I have firmwares, I have flashtools... I just need it to work so I can install ANY android version.

I sincerely hope this is not in the wrong place, but i do not know where else to put it. I tried to update my x10 running wbcm6 to tw007.2, but apparently in my sleep-deprived haze, downloaded the wrong bb version. when i tried to restart after install, i lost xrecovery, and had no signal and had an unknown bb version. after many attempts to recover, finally resorted to rolling back all the way to stock 2.1 and starting over. was able to succesfully flash at&t 2.1 rom according to flashtool, but now i am stuck in a reboot loop after the boot animation. cannot get seus pc companion to recognize, and neither will flashtool. i am at the end of my wits, this my only phone, and it is currently unuseable...
anyone who has any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. let me know if i can provide any further information...
My turn!

See what I mean?
It is funny to me when people just say "wrong section" but offer no useful advice. Seems just as easy to say nothing and just let us work it out. And who knows? Maybe someone who is dealing with an issue caused by android development (see current section) will think to look in the same place for a solution. It's a big circle!

MODS>>>>>PLEASE MOVE TO Q&A!!!!!!AHHHHHHHHH!
wow. solved before it got moved ? :L
also, i was gonna suggest reboot your darn x64 bit comp, and the take out your ****fy battery, and then plug your usb cable in the hole and hold the back button and reflash with flashtool, but when it says flashing, then insert battery while still holding the back button. its a common issue after one flash for x64. happened to me several times, when the x64 bit comp won't detect, so i had to reboot.
now, MOD PLEASE MOVE
Moved to proper forum.
that is interesting information to know. i will definitely keep that in mind when flashing in the future. appreciate that
Hey guys,
I have an x10i that just went dead one day, I thought it needed a software re-install so I did it. Now it wont turn on and I just get a quick green blink and a vibrate when I turn it on. Ive flashed it 10 times via sony update too and pc companion and flash tools. I dont know what to do, any help would me much appreciated.
Download SEUS from Sony and flash. Make sure it is fully charged and make sure you are using the right USB cable and try using several different USB ports on your computer if the first one doesn't work.

Thanks for the response, I have a fully charged battery and just re-flashed with still no luck. What did you mean about the "right usb cord" ?
Thanks again.
I mean reflashed with SEUS (not PC Companion) and by right USB cord, I mean the one that came with the phone. Or if you have the possibility, try another one.
Tried with 2 different usb cords and on 2 different cpus. I think Im S.O.L
One more question, after a flash how long does it take for the xperia to boot up?
During a flash with SEUS it tells you when the phone is rebooting....same with the Flashtool.
Screen turns on...still black...then Sony logo, then your bootlogo followed by desktop.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmX-IYNYqL8
Is it successfully flashing using SEUS or flashtool? Does it actually flash and then not boot? What does it say when you flahs using the flashtool?
But again, if the flashtool isn't working, you are going to have to use SEUS to get back to scratch. Run it as Admin...let it boot up and do nothing to the phone for at least 2 minutes. Do not swipe or move a thing....let it settle down.
Some of you people who ask for help really don't provide much information at all.
To me it looks like a wrong firmware problem... version you have installed isn't the same as kernel.
I would flashtool....root....turn off phone....SEUS full reflash....

When the flash finishes up it says to turn on the device and the start up may take some time, Ive let it sit for hours and still nothing. IDK what the hell is wrong with it.
K well I give up. Ive tried 3 more times using a cpu with xp and still the same thing.
If any one else has had this problem please let me know.
looks like the faulty motherboard issue to me, some users are experiencing this problem, if you have warranty get a new phone if don't then i don't know what else can you do :/
Great. I have no warenty so looks like I'm screwed.

Calm, which tutorial you followed exactly? Probably you are not right with the recovery or the root on the unit. If he is still going into download mode, we can still rescue it. Post at which point you are.
the phone is not starting at all,i don't see it in device manager
I have the exact same problem!
When i connect it to pc nothing happens, no charging battery, the device manager doesn't recognize it either, if i try to open it with the power button nothing happens and i also tried to pull out the battery and insert it but again nothing happens.
I think our last hope it to sent it to sumsung repair store.
Btw how much they may charge for this kind of "brick" without warranty?

Sure hope you still visit the forum because I'm up the creek without a paddle.
I followed this tut here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190 and everything worked great but it would seem that there is no baseband for the "Canadian" I5500MUGJJ7. I'm stuck in a loop and yes I can get into the download mode.
It should be noted at the start of the excellent tutorial that one would be unable to suceed if upgrading a Canadian G5.
Can you please help. Thanks

You could try using a different charger. I had issues with my stock charger once with an older phone of mine and i thought it was my phone. So try that maybe?

I followed the instructions provided at the MEGA UNBRICK something thread situated here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108/
Anyway, when I hold the volume-up button for 10 seconds, followed by plugging the Onyx with the PC, the system does't detect the device. What can I do now? And is there any alternative method to unbrick a hardbricked phone? I urgently need help
If you installed the drivers and the computer is not reckognizing the device, that's bad news. How did you manage to accomplish that?

I don't know. And ijust in case if you were being sarcastic, I used the same computer to replace the recovery of this phone.
Im not being sarcastic. The problem with the Android modding scene is that people got too used to blindly following steps without really knowing how they are affecting their devices. In order to get better chances at getting help, you'll need to describe what and exactly how you were altering your phone.

I was using Bliss ROM with BluSpark kernel. Anyway, I downloaded 2 ROMS today, Sailfish OS and the stock H2OS for OPX. I wiped the phone and first flashed the Sailfish OS, but the phone was stuck in a bootloop which only was showing the oneplus logo and the text "Powered by Anrdoid". After that, I entered recovery, and did the normal pre-flash wipe again. This time I flashed the H2OS, but after I gave "Reboot to System", my phone just wont do nor display anything. Hardbricked, dead
Can you boot it into recovery? Your bat may be dead from extensively flashing stuff, so plug the phone to the power cable and press and hold VolDown+Power for some good 30s, then you can conclude your phone wont boot into recovery and maybe need an unbrick.

Does the led light up when you plug the phone to the wall? If it does let it charge for an hour before attempting anything else.
After that and before trying anything else, make sure driver signature check is off and test mode is on. This varies slightly for Windows 7/8 vs 8.1/10. Which version are you running?

I turned off the signature check, W8
If your led doesnt light when your phone is plugged to the wall, this is behind the hard unbricking procedure and your phone is indeed, dead.

Can a mod please close this thread?
No idea what it could be besides corrupt firmware which I've never heard of happening before. The Qualcomm utility should work just fine. Leave it plugged in for an hour or two and see if anything happens
Did you install the qualcomm drivers? If not do it again carefully with driver enforcement off. It works like a charm. Have bricked my device twice as of now and it worked.
