I don't see any reason to resuscitate old threads!?
You dont intend to post in the dev section now, do you?

Its a bootloop. Boot in recovery and make a data wipe and factory reset. What recovery do you use?

if your phone is dead (no lights, activity etc) then only consider it as Bricked else you can revive it by flashing firmware via ODIN for stock ROM or CWM for Custom ROMs

Sony Tipo ST21i went weird

Hello Guys. Today i wanted to install Walkman Player for my tipo. My friend sent me some APKs. I install CWM to my Tipo and installed those APKs using CWM. But when i rebooted the device, the ICS was changed. This ICS looked like the ICS of XPERIA U and all(Updates Ones). I tried to Factory reset but it didnt work. I had done backup using TITANIUM. Even restoring it, i couldnt get back my Tipo ICS. Is there any way to Completely Reset back again it was normal?

Guys please somebody REPLY! The phone looks very ugly. Is there some way that i can get back my original ROM? Please do tell me what other choice do i have? This is how its looking.

Download flashtool and ftf, flash it to stock and learn to use 'search' .
This advice is given in almost all unbrick threads , to restore to stock.

It released long time back. But you may lose root if you update.

I tried to install, but it says, it couldn't install and i don't want to install, but it prompts me to update. How do i get rid of it? It displays in Notification bar. I want to remove it from there!

yeah

also my battery is 1 % and i dont know how to charge it (i just saw that) maybe my phone is rebooting cuz i dont have battery but it is inpossible to charge it cuz i dont have any rom installed

ok listen...can you flash stock.ftf rom to your tipo? just download flashtool (google it) and find stock.ftf from general section...one other way is to flash vergeance kernel with flashtool, enter cwm and flash a rom from android development (or cm10 from original android development) if you dont understand something tell me....
P.S. after you flashed stock rom or vergeance kernel turn on your phone and put charger to see if it charging

21/050/2013 17:50:43 - ERROR - Error in processHeader : 31 : A device attached to the system is not functioning.
21/050/2013 17:50:43 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted
wtf this is the error i see when i try to flash the ftf file

it seems that you have wrong header.sin or you didn't enter the flashmode properly. make sure you get notice 'the device is plugged with flashmode' or something like that when you plug in the usb to your pc. to fix the header.sin issue you'll need the correct one. you can find it on the same thread where you got your tft.

i think that ico98 dont know how to fix header.sin and its better to flash a kernel from fastboot...its more easy...do you agree?

I'm not sure about that. he didn't give any specific info about how messed up his system is. if he install any stock ICS based rom (without any custom kernel) his problem mostly could be fixed by reflashing the rom and wipe the data. flashing a kernel won't fix this issue. aside from that scenario, there are several more scenario i.e:
1 he could have install a JB based rom then he install a ICS rom, completely dead. need to flash complete tft or reflash JB rom and wipe data.
2 ICS rom with custom ICS kernel. can be fixed by flash a stock kernel
3 etc etc...there are a lot of scenario
my main point is that flashing a kernel doesn't always fix anything. in most cases, I only suggest that step for more advanced user. without enough data about the system condition flashing a complete tft will be a general and always working method.
anyway, before we do any 'flash' thing, IMO wipe data might be a good choice. most new member forget about that important step and ended up with a bricked device.

ok then...i said to flash kernel and to choose a custom rom (gimlo, paradox etc) but if ico98 download again ftf file will he have this problem again? (header.sin)
P.S. sometimes i forgot to wipe system and data when i am to cm10 and i want to go back to ics and the only problem i have is some apps to force close....no brick only fc
P.S.2 i installed kernels from xperia mini pro and insecure kernel E dual and my phone didnt brick, just not boot...maybe my phone has immunity at brick ahahahahahahaha

well...it doesn't means that your system is immune. you're just lucky enough to never experienced a hardbrick.

Thank Youuuuu !!!!!

it is getting charged. and i can get into CMW to mount the sd card.
please help as soon as possible people.
thank you in advance.

Dont worry just flash another rom or stock rom of your device if available, or restore a backup if none of this worked then try the unbricking guide link in my sign but remember this is for other device you can take a tutorial
