[Q] Stuck at Sony Ericsson splash screen?

I rooted my play, got the CWM installer, did a backup, did a factory reset, then flashed JJ's Hybrid ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573547).
Then I rebooted, but it won't boot. It's just stuck at the "Sony Ericsson" splash screen. I've tried going into recovery, won't work. Also taken the battery out and tried again, but that didn't work either.
I read in another thread that you can't flash with less than 50% charge? Mine may have been at around 48% at the time...
Does anyone know where I went wrong, and more importantly how to get my phone working again?
Is your bootloader unlocked? Because the rom only works with unlocked bootloader

I did not unlock the bootloader...
Know how to fix this?
I think, you have to flash a stock ftf with flashtool
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
I'm downloading both now, thanks for your help
I think I'll be ok from here, but stick around if I need any more help!
Feel free to ask

Hmmm... I tried to flash it but it said I needed to install the drivers. I installed the drivers, but it still says "ERROR - Drivers need to be installed for connected device"
Any idea?
I think I have the same problem. My device is not recognized at all, how am I supposed to use flashtool?
Do you have pc companion and update service installed too? I had the same error with earlier flashtools and installing those two programs seemed to make it work nicely
Sent from my R800a using XDA App
You could try the Sony Ericsson update service tool: http://sony-ericsson-update-service.en.uptodown.com/
Sorry for the lame link, couldn't find an "official" one, but can confirm the above works. I flashed mine yesterday back to stock with it.

Update w/o losing root?

hello.. my current fw is .431 and there is a new update 587
how to install new update w/o losing root?
I believe if you update OTA you can keep root.
For me, I just relocked my bootloader, flashed stock image, used pc companion to update to new firmware, then unlocked bootloader, flashed stock kernel with cwm from old firmware. Then used old root tutorials to get root then flashed my kernel of preference.
Easy right?
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
it's Easy
if you're on locked bootloader
OTA update will keep your root..,
or if it didn't reach you OTA flash the firmware with flashtool
and it's the same root method for .431 ..,with .587 kernel of course
or if you are with an unlocked bootloader
flash the firmware with flashtool
then flash the advanced kernel .587 ..,you'll find it in the development section
after that flash superuser with CWM from here
hope i helped you =)
^^^^That guy was much more helpful you should thank him

Sent from my LT18i using XDA Premium App
OTA is the short form for Over The Air i.e. updating via WiFi or using data on your mobile.

But if you can update via OTA how?
lately on the .431 FW i tried to update it via wifi.. but still it ask me to update it via pc companion.
"You need to plug pc companion in order to update" it says something like that...
but take note that some countries don't have the the new base available via OTA. only method is PC companion.

I have problem updating OTA. When it finishes downloading and I tap install, it reboot the logo appear that is updating but when reboot to home screen it says that could not update. My phone is rooted. I didn't install cwm, only bisybox.
My status:
Code:
- .431 with wotanserver
- Unlocked bootloader using testpoint keeping trackid (Omnius)
- stock firmware + CWM
- Rooted using Superuser
- Some system apps uninstalled.
If I try to update through OTA it makes the first boot and says "Error updating"
What shall I do?
Relock the bootloader? (in this case shall I pay to unlock it again?)
Backup all with titanium, use wotanserver with new version and root again?
Restore all deleted apps and OTA?
Thanks, and sorry, I could not find the proper answer.
To arcuser,
I know what you mean.I tried it as well a couple of days before your first post.Didnt happen.But later in the evening there was a notification from Sony Ericsson via Update Centre on the device that an update was available via WiFi.Clicked on the notification and sweetas iam on build 4.1.B.0.587.
That's the only change that happened and yes the screen comes on faster when you are about to make calls.

Hi!, apart from what you mention, there are more improvements, some of them led notification works better than before, people say it's has less bugs than prior ones.
I've also same trouble, the upgrade is available by OTA but when you download and install it, it reboots and show you an icon and a message indicating it didn't upgraded. It looks that it consider prior installed version and when it upgrades it needs pure sony kernel and rom, otherwise you receive the message. And also, if you do in the other way.. this is upgrade with pc companion you loose your root, so the current solution seems to be going back to . A.0.562 -next to B.0.431 and the root and finally upgrade with OTA b.0.587. This is what people say that works, some guys did it and works, but it is a pain in your but doing all these steps.. so does anyone knows any other way of doing it?

Bootloader is different than getting ics. If I remember correct if bootloader is unlocked, Sony pcc or update service will not work. You sure your still locked?
Does flashtool find your phone? If not try there drivers.
Sounds stupid but you did reboot after installing pcc / Seus?

Ya I rebooted million the bootloader is definetly locked I was just wondering about that because it's not updating so I was thinking about just rooting and flashing ics but I hate how it deletes all ure stuff.

If you unlocked your bootloader you have to go back to 100% stock gb then update.

It can't be unlocked so I'm pre sure I'm safe from that aspect lol

Have you tried ftfing the 105 ics firmware through flash tool?
Sent from my LT28at using xda premium
Tried it but everytime I enter flashmode on my device it will try to install a driver and then it will say the device has disconnected and the battery charging thing pops up then the driver fails to install happens on Sus seus flashtool everything sooooo annoyiiing
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
Did you let the flash driver load before you tried flashing?? If you connect the device in flashmode and let the driver install in Windows then unplug the device. It should now work.
That's the problem tho the driver will not install I went to the Sony store and it worked fine on his computer. I'm gonna try again later because I'd like to root my phone

You can try installing android sdk to get drivers for ADB. You can try the old way to root using ADB not flashtool. Just use the ftf of your choice for ics.

This sounds more like a problem with your particular PC, than with the phone itself...
update wasn't available so i flashed with flashtool on a GB LT28AT. Got absolutely no where for several hours. No matter what i tried, flashtool refused to recognize the phone. I had tried before installing companion, after installing, after uninstalling...installing stock mass storage drivers...holding down and plugging the phone in while flash tool was installed...while it wasn't installed...installing some of the flashtool drivers (of which the ion was never a phone listed), installing all of the flashtool drivers, uninstalling all drivers, rolling back windows, installing some drivers from flashtool...that weren't quite what i had installed before..........etc...
then magically...I'm just sitting there with flashtool open at its log box. I plugged the phone in...again...while holding down volume key, and i get a notice that 'S1 Boot Driver successfully installed'. press the lightning bolt expecting the same result...90 seconds later my phone boot up with the ICS welcome screen...how i got that S1 boot thing to initiate? your guess is as good as mine, but its definitely key for getting a windows PC to flash an lt28.
Something must be blocking it question is what lol I have gotten a notice about that too it says something may be blocking it or the driver has no devices associated with it

App installing problem

I have previously downloaded an app which worked but then I uninstalled it and now when I try to install it its not installing its saying out of space when installing although I have 42 mb free internal storage .......plx help
Sent from my Wildfire S A510e using Tapatalk 2
Did you get the app online or from the Play Store? Some apps you get online could be made for a newer version of Android that's why I ask. If you got it from the Play Store then it's definitely compatible anyway.. In which case I can't help.
Its from the web but its compatible with the phone

[Q] OTA Update for Xperia S Failed

I have a rooted stock .45 xperia s and I just received the ota update for .55 last night.
When I try to install it, though, my phone keeps saying installation failed. It says "Could not install new software version. Try again."
I cannot unlock my bootloader so the new root kit won't be too helpful for me. I heard you won't lose root if you do ota update though. But how come mine kept on failing ? Do I need to delete something before I do ota update ?
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Is it because I have superuser.apk in my system/app ?

is your rom rooted/deodexed ?
I found the solution.
I first went to recovery and flashed only the system portion of my old backup (almost vanilla android + root). The OTA update works fine after that.
I think the reason it didn't work the first time was because I had Secure Settings (for Tasker) installed directly in the system/app folder in order for it to toggle GPS.
