[Q] Red LED of Death ! - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know its probably against the rules to post a question in this section but I really need help,
I know that there are many threads discussing the same issue but believe me I read them & it didnt work with me ! , so my phone wont turn on it just blinks red led 3 times that means that my battery is drained out but when I leave a while to charge it turns to green for a few minutes then the led is turned off , while its green its identifiable by the computer & flashtool & seus but when I try to flash/repair/update it gets stuck
btw it doesnt show the SonyEricsson logo when the led is green ; can anyone help me plz ? is it a software issue,battery or hardware ?? plz help !
Note: my phone was dropped heavily & I read on some forums that the fall may have caused damage to the USB port thats why itsnt charging is that true ?!
Note2: I was able to charge my battery and now when I connect the USB the computer recognize it but it wont flash using flashtool or repair/update ?!!

Have you found a solution? I´m having the same issue!

generally this indicates flash ic fault .
this is a common problem in SE phones .

the only thing u can do is use another pc to flash it which never had the pc companion or seus and try to flash it from there...

Remember that u also need to remove the registry entries for pccompanion and any other se app on your pc.. then reinstall drivers for flashtool.

Hello maybe its a flashtool bug or something with dalvik-cache or battery stats i am not sure someone correct me if wrong. I recently installed fxp109 cm7.2 and noticed it has a new version of the flashtool if correct its now 6.8.0, maybe the older ones are good and i saw u used 6.7.0 maybe the 6.8.0 works or older version then 6.7.0, Maybe it works if u can remove the drivers in device manager and try to reinstall them with SE gordon gate drivers i am not sure if this will solve ur problem but is worth trying i gues. P.S Greets from holland and i hope it helped if u tryed.

DON'T KEEP FLASHING WITH FLASH TOOL THEN!
PEOPLE KEEP DOING THINGS LIKE THIS WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THEIR DOING
Now connect the phone to SEUS and reflash stock Rom, I bet phone will be fine.
Edit: also ensure your battery has over 50% charge before connecting to update service. Just leave on charge for a while even if it keeps restarting.

Did your X10 break mechanically?
You should take it to the shop.
Hey I feel for you.
I never had that before but I would download pc suite 6
http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Sony-Ericsson-PC-Suite-Download-16854.html
install take battery out of phone.
select repair and choose your x10 model and follow the prompts. do not plug usb cable and battery until it tells you to.
now put in battery and hold down back button and plug usb in and hope it locks into flash mode. If it works the softwaree will repair your loader and install default rom and you'll be good to go.
Did you overdrive the cpu at all?
Let us know how you make it
good luck
Buddy,
if you want to use flashtools do it in the right way. First download the last firmware .67.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733
Copy .ftf file at firmware folder of flashtools.
flash your xperia
root it and everything should be fine....
don't forget to wipe personal data

Ok..been there.only difference being my x10 continuously vibrated when put it to charge. And never started.
Here is what I suggest.
1. Your x10 battery must be very low by now as u did multiple flashing. Take battery out for few min. Then put it in and keep phone for charging for couple of hours.even if green led doesn't light up.
2. Download SEUS not the pc suit. And install the firmware again.
3. If it doesnt help. Again run seus..and this time KEEP back button pressed for complete process.

Thanks for the fast reply. When i put my phone into the pc i hear 3 peeps and the flashtool says please install or reinstall device drivers from drivers folder. But the drivers wont install...
You need additional drivers for windows to recognise the phone in flashmode. Pc companion only installs ADB drivers. They should be installed since you have already unlocked the bootloader. Perhaps try to reinstall the drivers for flashmode then?

Hey, 'm facing the same issue
Recently i upgraded my Xperia to "ThGo2 v16.0" from custom rom..
After some time the rom got unstable and restarted the phone, however it wouldn't boot up. Now i have completely black screen, all the time, with few red blinks
(I have tried all the solutions here:
1. SEUS : Says ur phone is already update and show Xperia arc in backgroud. No update available
2. PC companion: Tried all the tricks to start w/o connecting n all still the phone is not detected.
3. Flashtool, tried flashing it with 0.6.8 and 0.2.9.1
4. I have also used other tools like superclick, root / unroot and S1 tool (no of them worked)
Now, nothing is working with few red blinks and gree light..
Please help, my phone is converted into a black paper weight now....
Use pc companion. Or flashtool

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........

You need to install the ADB sony drivers... 's1fastboot' requires these. Do a search on google and they will pop up.
actually here are the drivers:
HSPA+ http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z-ultra-driver/
LTE http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z-ultra-c6833-c6806-c6843-driver/
If PC companion still doesnt work then you will need to use 'flashtool' and can then flash an FTF firmware file.
flashtool: http://dfiles.eu/files/lbbuacfhe
.532 firmware: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_rMaA9i_MUSRi1zWlpCOXV4RUE/edit?usp=sharing
I was thinking of making a video on how to do all of these steps, however I have to fly out in a couple of hours so wont have time until next week...

Next time, don't try to tweak a stock kernel. If you're not sure how stuff works, don't mess with it. If you're not sure about something then ask us before you do stuff like this. There's a reason why we're all here.

I emailed you this, but may have gone to spam..
they are just driver ini files and system config settings.
1) right click on my computer
1a) properties
2) device profile
3) look for devices without drivers
4) update driver
5) advanced/
6) have disk
7) use the unzipped folder as the location
8) yes continue with unsigned driver version
done
i may have missed a step as I only have access to my Ultra at the moment, but thats what you need to do

Fast boot asks for .img or .sin files. Doesn't accept ftf.* . . My phone is into boot loop. . Can't use Sony pc companion as it restarts b4 the pc companion can install the drivers. . I need to use fast boot exclusively. ..

The correct for fastboot is blue led always on
When using S1 mode the green led blinks then no led if im right
And use flashtool instead, much easier

First, it didnt work. I installed and uninstalled many times flashtool and different versiont of flashtool and finally I dont know how but it worked.

after phone was off for a while , doesn't pass the first screen and keep rebooting

Phone keeps rebooting while it's on charger , and doesn't turn on if i remove it from it
as in this video watch?v=k3Y93FjEqdw
it was off for long time and i was trying to use it again
flash an ftf using flashtool it will solve the problem

When I was trying to do it , it totally doesn't allow the tool to connect while battery is in the phone , I opened the phone to disconnect it and tool worked
but still no luck ,exactly same issue
You should try with the older version of flashtool as well(worked with an SP, same issue)
If that doesn't help, your motherboard might gave up
