Help me ppl ! I screwed up big time !!
I originally got X10 mini with Android 2.1 and relatively old firmware ...anyway I rooted my phone, took the backup and then Flashed a CWM Recovery on it !
Factory WIPED all the data for the new ROM ......
Then I was about to Flash this CM 7.1 ROM when all of a sudden it displayed the message that it wont work wihout the Latest Firmware .... so from there on I had no choice but to Restore my Backup and go back to a working OS, so I could easily proceed with Firmware update ...... but that never happened !!!
The Backup couldnt be recovered ...it failed for i dont know what reason ....ever since then the device never worked beyond the WHITE Sony Ericsson LOGO !!! Im stucked ..... even the CWM Recovery isnt working now !!
I'm stucked !! I've been looking for a solution for almost 3 days now .... but had no luck !!! dont know what to do from here on!! KINDLY HELP !! plzz plzz plzzz !! I desperately need to fix this !! the device even aint mine !!!
restore to stock by using sony ericsson update service
First, don't panic
And you have to notice and make this a lesson; if CWM said that your baseband is incompatible, it means, CWM is not flashing anything to your phone, yet.. So you only have to restart the phone, instead of recovering your CWM backup, and you'll be back to your default OS
Second, now find a tool named FlashTool, and also find a 2.1 stock firmware.. now proceed to flash with USB cable, you'll find the instruction together with the tool
Third, you'll be OK, trust me
first of all moedjs man !! Thx for sympathy n giving me courage !!
but could you kindly confirm that FlashTool would still work even If I'm unable to mount USB anywhere !! coz USB would charge phone but since I'm stuck on Sony Ericsson Logo and cant go beyond that point I'm unable to update my Firmware via PC Companion tool by Sony Ericsson tooo !!!
Thats the main reason I was panicking mate !! Kindly Kindly confirm that for me !! n I'm already liking your positive attitude ..so I do trust ya !! THX again !!
i don't understand why you can't use official seus? afaik it doesn't need anything beyond the se logo. power off phone, run seus on the pc, plug the cable while pressing the back key, etc; right?

Sir I've been through that .... for some reason it didnt work for me beyond "plug the cable while pressing the back key" STEP !! i dont know why !! i didnt have any effect watsoever, therefore I couldnt proceed with the 3rd STEP of Updating it ! =(
and is there anyway to Remove the battery !! coz once I use Home+Power Key combo it restarts device ...... is there any other combo to power off the phone, so I can atleast save battery !! anyway m also givin FLASHTOOL a try !!
can't power off? well, try these steps:
start seus on pc
connect phone and pc with usb cable
press both middle and right button at the same time and press the power button
when phone goes down keep pressing only the right button

I'm trying to be calm but stuff like that keeps happening to me !! Kindly guide me with that !! its still green I hold power button n yet its showing no sign of turning on ! =(((
do you see charging battery in your screen? have you waited enough to boot it again and try the steps above?
still, if you need to disconnect the battery, here is a disassembling guide: http://goo.gl/jDd6q

Wow thanks for that Dis-Assembling guide ..... !! I'll ultimately have to try this if everything else fails ....
well I never saw Battery charging on screen !! i think not even when it was working fine !!
I think i'll give it some more time with charging !! coz it just showed me that SE logo again .... but when I tried to restart it .... the screen didnt turn back on !!!
also when SE Logo appears it appears automatically ......dont have to turn on the device ... and then also green LED light turns off ..... Im not sure whether its still charging at that time or not !! I think NOT ! this is kinda dodgy ! what do you reckon ?
no led light, no charge, i think. have you tried triple keys way again? it's kind of tricky, do it carefully.
Yeah I did !! I pressed HOME+Back at the same time and then had to Hold the Home button to turn the screen off ! then I repeatedly kept pressing the BACK button!
actually from there on it started blinking that RED Led light again .... ! I think its still needs more charging .... but then again If it charges enough to power the screen on automatically ..... the Green LED disappears .... so M kinda stuck in the loop here !
Oh God Help me !!

f. On popup message press "OK" button
That OK Button never appears for me !! I dont knw wat to do next
Kindly help !!!!
i think flashtool needs a working system.
can you power off your phone or not? if able to do so, seus should work.
so, you have just one option if you can't start recovery: using seus.
and you've two options to start seus: the standart way, or the triple buttons way.
if you can enter recovery, you can try to wipe everything and flash a rom.
these are all i can say about it. hope you can solve it.

When charged enough there's no way to turn the device off ! I've tried both HOME+POWER & HOME+BACK then POWER (holding the back Key towards the end) button none of them actually works ! The Screen keeps powering back on, showing up that Sony Ericsson Logo !
Could it be USB Bricked or something ? (Apparently, since I cant access recovery I cant mount the device)
Try:
- turn off phone
- wait for 1 minute, phone still off
- connect to usb with flashtool
I have almost the same problem, my phone have been breaked several times but every time i had access to xrec or internet to solve problem.But this time when phone dischared for first time n I wanted to start it again I found that it's not gonna boot! Stuck on SE text logo... (I flashed CM7)
now it's charged ( although the screen was on, showing SE) n I have flasher n a rom.
but when i start to flash after showing "start Falshing" on screen (CMD) some seconds pass n CMD shows "write failed" n other things...
When i connect my phone to pc red LED shows itself for some seconds n after it disconnects itself while i'm pressing the back key...
And two questions:
1. Does it matter what the name of the ROM file -in firmware folder- is?...
2. I have to ftf files. on is about 108 MB n the other one 280 MB. Eachone can be a ROM?(I have tested Flasher with both of them.)
tnx
Yesterday i rooted and tried to install a Rom and used Rom manager to go into recovery mode. I thought you had to do the down+home+power and now when I try to do anything it wont work power button 20 sec , power+home , up/down+power+home,nothing.When i tried plug it into the computer it makes that sound when something failed to connect to the pc. When i tried holding the power button i hear the sound of the device successfully connect to the pc but when i look theres no phone on the computer and when i let go of the power button it stops. Any help would be very much appreciated and i will never do anything to risk my device being broken again... :crying:

oh...
my bad..
Hello, Folks.
I own a huawei gr5 2016 (5x in some region). I messed up when I am trying to flash with MIUI with twrp recovery. I force shut down my hone due to the navigation keys went gone, the phone was not also responding. RIght after i shut down my phone, I can no longer turn in on. I read several XDA thread but I got no luck.
Here are some of my observation on the phone
--Cannot power on (tried different key combination such as Vol + & Power , Vol - & Power, Vol +- & power ), No luck
--It gets disconnected every 5-8 secs every time i plug in to my Computer
--Getting an error message that says "USB device not recognize"
--Phone is a bit warm when it is connected to a PC which maybe a small sign of hope.
Now, My aim is to get the phone recognized by the Computer so I can possibly proceed with the flashing. I was wondering if someone can help me out on how can I resolve my issue.
Please move this thread to the correct section if not on the right Place. Thank you in advance
PS: Sorry for my bad English
Hi everyone ! I appreciate this forum very much since we do help each other here. So thanks in advance !
I've recently got a Samsung GS7 which was a carrier operator based system (Orange France) and recently, it gave me a bootloader error. I did reflash the bootloader with a newer version and also the system (Android 7.0 FTM) via Odin, all was working perfectly till I downloaded Antutu and tried the benchmarking, when the system went to the CPU multithread, the phone did reboot and when it started, I uninstalled that application to avoid problems. Then, the phone didn't want to reboot afterwhile.
I'm blocked with a black screen and all keys combination doesn't work.
I really need help. It's a G930F. If you need any information; just ask.
Hi , did you flashed 4 files on Odin ? and Did you tried to flash with Samsung Smart Swich ?

Yes, I did flash all 4 files (BL, CSC, AP and something else as described in odin).
I did try the Smart Switch recuperation feature but it didn't gave me any option, then after flashing with Odin, I did retry once the phone has completed his turn on ignition, it just gave me a feature to upgrade the phone.
The Emergency Software Recovery and Initialization you need manualy to do like in that video , first you need to put your phone in download mode .
Because you say that screen is black hold just power button for about 10 second to make sure your device is off , then Hold vol - Home and Power to enter in Download mode for bout 7 second and then release power button , wait just litle and then press vol + like for odin flash and then try The Emergency Software Recovery and Initialization. If it Doesn't work try with old version of firmware to flash , if you are able after that to enter in to recovery Wipe Cache Partition and Reboot your phone.

The Emergency Software Recovery has been removed from Smart Switch. Sorry to say that but I can't access it.
Also, I can't enter the download mode or the recovery mode. I'll wait until the battery goes empty, and then, will try to charge it to see if it changes anything.

You can try that , but try this , press and hold just power button and plug USB on PC and your phone to see if is your device recognized as Exynos 7422 for example if it is then your Bootloader is dead .

I did try that but it don't give me anything. The device is not recognized.

I think it may be a software issue, the battery was working fine three days ago, I was working with the phone for about 5 - 6 hours without charging, it wasn't a battery problem.
Tomorrow, if letting my phone discharge and then charge doesn't work, I'll put it in charge for 3 hours.
Thanks !

The phone worked after letting all the juice go empty and recharge it for a couple of hours. It is working now perfectly.
Thanks
I'm glad to hear that

It just did it again, I was downloading a file and then, the phone did make like a screen cracked and it went off another time.
Is it a software issue or a hardware issue ?
I'm not sure first what file you was downloading and how you mean like screen cracked ? Colors or what ? ( Try to do Factory Reset and do Wipe Cache Partition if the problem comes again probably you have device with hardware issue .
Here is the screenshot of my software system infos.
Also, I get a small line with grey pixels like the old TVs

Hi , your situation is complicated because the firmware writing to your emmc is stoped in the middle because your power failure .
In order to try to bring your device back in life if your download mode is okey you can use USB JIG which you can find on Ebay or some other shop in order to put your device into Download mode .
Here is example how is look like .
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcnNO_LplAE
If that dosn't work let your battery dry to 0% and then put the usb cable and just hold 3 keys for download mode until Download message is show up on your screen.
Good luck...
