[Q] Help, Xperia X8 not booting - General Questions and Answers

I have rooted and installed xRecovery on my old Xperia X8, everything fine there. I wanted to install Ginger DX custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486. My phone is a version which can't have bootloader unlocked, or it will hardbrick, so I needed to install this rom for stock kernel. I got to recovery mode, backed up, wiped cache, factory reseted, and installed the rom, all fine til there. So when I made it reboot, i turned off and got stuck on "Sony Ericsson" screen. I waited some time, and when I saw it wasn't rebooting, I took out the battery, and when I rebooted it, it got stuck in the same screen. Also I can't seen to get to recovery mode by clicking "back" several times. Someone please help me, the phone is old, but it's the only one my brother has

[Q] Uh oh. Tried New ROM but...

I have rooted my Xperia Arc S. Used Titanium Backup do remove bloatware. Added ClockworkMod recovery. Started phone in recovery mode and attempted to run the .zip file on my SD card for the CyanogenMod ROM. My phone went to reboot in this new ROM, but it shows the SONY logo on my screen, and it doesn't do anything more. It is just stuck on that. I took out the battery and put it back in, but I get the same thing. The SONY logo only.
Any suggestions? Did I just fry my phone?

Massive problems with HTC one boot loop

Hello all, first post and I really hope you can help. I have an unlocked HTC One, runnnig 4.2.1
Today I attempted to install Android Revolution 6.0 ROM
I downloaded the ROM, made a back up ON THE PHONE of my data, factory restored and then bootloaded and flashed the ROM
I went through the start-up ie choosing which Google options I required etc nd the phone reset to install but now is stuck in a loop. When I attach the phone to my PC it is not recognised. No matter what option I choose in bootmanager ie fastboot, recovery, factory reset etc it just gets stuck in boot loop and I cannot do ANYTHING. Major problems as I need my phone for work. Can anyone please please help I have searched and searched but really don't know what to do?

[Q] Bricked my xperia j!!!

Hello
Yesterday I installed alien rom 5.0 onto my xperia J which was running cm10. It installed and worked very well until I realised I forgot to flash the root fix so I needed to reboot to recovery which I was unable to do because it wouldn't work. I decided to go ahead and install a cwm I found on a website and I could now boot into cwm however it kept flashing a charging symbol the the screen was pink whilst showing double and switching off. After a while it started working again but then crashed as soon as I hit the power button to restore my backup. Now my phone shows a black screen and when switched on flashes the led green twice and shows the sony logo then powers back off. I need help, I'm un experienced in this field of phones...

Sony Xperia Tipo Bricked (AOKP ROM)

I am quite new to flashing ROMs and I was really excited when i managed to successfully flash a ROM on my Tipo, it was the AOKP milestone1 ROM and it was pretty good but every 10 seconds an error came up saying "Android Keyboard has stopped working". So today i decided to install the Alienware KitKat ROM it was going well, i transferred the zip file to my SD card, managed to boot into recovery, delete phone date, cache etc and install it. However when i tried to reboot the phone after installing it the pink notification light and the capacitive buttons would light up for 5 seconds and then turn off, but i can still go into CWM recovery mode. So I tried to flash the stock ROM back onto my phone through Flashtool but even that didn't work for me, it kept on getting stuck.
Does anyone have a solution for me. I'm quite saddened by this my phone right now is useless.
Disregard...

Z3 won't boot

Good morning, I bought yesterday this phone, version D6603.
When I started it android version was 4.4.4, so I tried the Sony update to see if any update was available, and it suddenly started the download; so I stopped it and turned off the phone (I just wanted to install a recent stock rom with flashtool with a data wipe, because the phone is a secondhand one). After a while I turned it on again, just to check the camera, and when I started it the screen went black and the phone has locked and turned off by itself! I cannot manage to boot it again, neither in normal nor in recovery mode (I tried volume down + power, volume up + power, both + power). I had to reset it several times with the physical button because every time it get stucked on boot!
So next step was to try to install a stock rom with flashtool (D6603_23.4.A.0.546_IT), using wipe apps_log and userdata; it worked with no errors but the phone was still stucked on boot (just after the welcome music).
I also tried to use PC Companion's "repair your phone" under Support Zone, but it didn't work as well.
At this point I don't know what else I can do, I tried everything I know! I always had Sony and it's the first time I got a stucked phone with no root and nothing else modified.. Any suggest??
Thank you very much
