xperia play (r800i) stuck on ¨boot loop?¨

hello everyone.
i got a xperia play that i have rooted with superoneclick.
now i have changed some icons like battery status etc with rom toolbox
and after restarted so i could see the changes it just stuck on the sony ericsson boot text.(in a loop)
i got stock rom an all no busy box just rom toolbox pro,superuser and maybe a bricked phone.
please help!!!
note i had a lot of crashes before i restarted the phone
and i got it in christmas so i m very sad now cus its my only good phone D:
mystery cant be bricked
its not bricked i guess becausse its still charging when not trying to boot
well...
i was wrong so now i have to download a stock ftf file atleast i know what wrong
Heya
I have the exact same phone as you with ROM Toolbox Pro and Superuser as well, and I've run into the same problem after trying to customize some icons and system fonts.
I'd be very much interested in knowing how you and if you got your phone working again.
I'm currently downloading FlashTool in the hopes that I can use that to flash it back to a stock Android 2.3.
Bootloader locked, can't flash ROM
As the title said, apparently my bootloader is locked so I can't use the flashtool to flash the ROM.
I can't unlock my bootloader in any way I've been able to discover on here as I can't boot past the Sony Ericsonn logo text screen.
Does anybody know if there even is a way past this? Will paid professionals be able to fix it? Or am I stuck with a permanently bricked phone here?
Maybe one of my family's contacts working for the service provider will have an idea of what to do.
Everything went so well until I tried to change some icons and fonts, then everything just went downhill.
Thank you very much in advance.

[Q] Xperia Ray st18i booting prob ..

Guys , I was on Jelly Sandwich with sirikay's kernel. I had some speed problems with wifi. So I thought of flashing stock ICS Rom ST18i_4.1.B.0.587_Kernel.ftf using uniflash.exe and did it. After flashing it didnt restart. So I clicked the power button to restart manually but just got a vibration sound and nothing else .. just the blank screen. So I searched for stuff about unbricking my device since I thought it's bricked. I downloaded this package "FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick.exe" and started flashing the firmwares. So I held down my volumedown button and connected it to the usb port. It says error and that I have to select usb debugging mode and connect again but I can't even start my mobile.
Plz help .. Thanks in Advance
Try using flash tool!
and flash stock ftf through that.....
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using xda premium
Hi
I confirm, just had the same problem while updating a custom ROM.
Get the Stock ftf file for your phone/model then use Flashtool to flash it.
Search the forum for the proper links there are likely to be all there somewhere
Hopefully, your phone will be back to life on a stock version.
And yes, if you want to re-install a custom ROM you need to re-do all the process: root, (optional) unlock Bootloader etc.
Good luck.
PS: I saw a thread saying to use the SEUS to restore the phone to stock. Worth a try but for me it didn't work since SEUS was telling my phone already had the latest version. Fix hard bricked ray

[Resolved] [Q] Sony Ericsson w900i bootloops

Hey. I got bootloops in my old sony ericsson w900i.
When i attempt to boot it, screen starts to flash white and the phone goes on and off till the battery dies.
I tried to search for sony ericsson w900i firmware, but i had no luck.
Anyone knows where i could find firmware and correct flashtool for this phone?
Bumpzor
I had to tape nokia c2-01's battery to w900i cause the phone wont charge its own battery xD.
I succesfully flashed new fw with XS++, but that didnt solve the problem.. It still has bootloops.
Any idea how to fix this?
Alright i got my w900i to work again..Problem solved : )
See if you could somehow get in too recovery.. (GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND ASK HIM..)
