[Q] How to revive my dead ARC, plz help T^T~~ - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've already unlock my bootloader,
also, I flashtooled my ARC first time successfully.
after that, I use fastboot making my ARC into FreeXperia interface, and install
root.zip provided by other user.
however, I found that I cannot delete bulit-in apps which I didn't need.
so I do it again. (this time for get to SETTINGS -> APPLICATION -> UNKNOWN SOURCES)
that is, when I was about to flashtool it again, it turned out to be

What happened?? And how do I fix it?? Plz help~~~
Sony told me to change the Motherboard, which charge 12000 NT dollars
thank a lot~~~
(sorry me English is poor)

Download a Stock or another Custom ROM from the forum, then, extract boot.img and flash it. Then transfer CUSTOMROM.zip to SDCard and start in recovery mode. Then Wipe Data and Cache, and Install zip from SDCard, select it and restart. Sometimes already is rooted custom roms, btw you can install SuperUser app.

thanks !!
I'll try it when I get my phone back

You probably need a SDCard reader to your pc to do that. Because its unable to move items in Recovery Mode. Than after flash boot.img in flashboot, open Recovery, Wipes Data and Cache, than install zip from SDCard, than select the .zip ROM.
Take care.
Bye bye.

Excuse me ><""
How to extract boot.img from customers ROM @@?

Unzip it from zip file.

[Q] Stuck in boot loader - Please check & correct steps

Hello,
I'm stuck in bootloader (I think). It's my first attempt to flash a kernel and ROM, so I may have done something stupid... please correct any mistakes in my workflow:
1) rooted phone (ZergRush) - OK
2) Unlocked the bootloader (lollylost100) - OK
3) Flashed DoomKernelv22 using fastboot
4) Doomkernel recommends baseband36(+patch), so used flashtool to flash baseband36 (note first time I tried this I tried using "Select Kernel to Flash" - but got an error messge "FAILED (remote: Image won't fit, partition too small!)". So then I tried using "Select System to Flash", and had success:
07/005/2012 00:05:03 - INFO - Selected system (system.img or system.sin): C:\Flashtool\LT15_LT18_36_Baseband.ftf
07/005/2012 00:05:03 - INFO - Flashing selected system
07/005/2012 00:05:03 - INFO - Please check the log before rebooting into system
07/005/2012 00:05:28 - INFO - Finished Fastboot Toolbox​5)Booted into recovery and flashed the following (all in one session):
- ARC-DooMKernel-v22-modules_CWM
- PatchBaseBand36Libs.zip
- update-Arconium-8.2.zip
- update-arconium-FBInside_Timescape-v5.zip
- update-arconium-Sounds.zip
5a) didn't flash these ones:
- update-arconium-StockModules.zip (this is only for reverting back to a stock ROM?)
- couldn't find doomlord wifi/BT update, assumed it was all part of arconium? Also assumed that if this was a problem it would only affect wifi/BT not the rest of the install.
6) Booted phone - but just get a a loop of the "booting doomkernal" graphic / blank screen/buzz.
7) booted into recovery and wiped dalvik cache (no change)
8) booted into recovery and did factory reset/clear cache (no change)
9) reloaded all of the above (no change - still boot loop)
Think that's all, tried to be comprehensive.
Thanks in advance. R.

i think you should
make a factory reset,wipe dalvic cache,wipe cache in recovery
then again flash doomlord kernal
and then flash acronium8.2 in recovery
and then reboot your phone
after it reboots successfully
see your phone is working
if it is working then you should enter into recovery and then flash any other zip module u want to flash
it is recommended not flash the any other zip file at the same instance when you are flashing a custom rom in recovery
Thank you abhisheak.bansal
Just did Factory Reset / Wipe Cache
Then booted to Recovery and flashed doomkernel modules
Powered off
rebooted to recovery and flashed arconium8.2
Powered off / repowered
Still loops in boot.
Need to go out now, but will try repeat slowly one step at a time from the initial kernel image using fastboot. Will leave the baseband stuff until the end in case that's confused things.
i would reccommend if all doesnt work out at all
then flash the official ftf via flashtool
1. Flash an official stock 4.0.2.A.0.42/.58/.62 FW --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22105604
2. Flash/install the baseband patch AND the baseband itself --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382657
3. Flash Doomkernel --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172885
4. Flash the Doomkernel modules (MODULES for DooMKernel (v22)) --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172885
5. Flash the Arconium ROM --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325640 (doesn't include doomkernel 22 modules, hence step 4)
6. Flash optional Arconium packs
Apply a reboot between all steps and read/apply instructions as written the listed threads.
Thank you to all who have offered advice.
Decided to go with ICS (Arconium 3.C) and Stock Kernel+CWM. & baseband70
Flashed the above and all started working.
Although I was still on baseband-56....
That was my problem, I hadn't been using Flashtool properly. Although it appeared to be flashing something... It was until I started trying to use it in "Flashmode" rather than "Fastboot" mode (and with the firmwares in the firmware directory - rather than browsing to them), that I then got prompted to install lots of drivers... and was then able to flash the baseband properly. For those of you still reading, the 4 INFO lines in the first post do not indicate a successful baseband flash. This was the successful log:

I was wondering why you'd want to flash a GB rom instead of an ICS one
But glad you got it sorted out!
By the way, the steps I mentioned before (minus step 2) also work for the Arconium 3C release. And if you flash the official .431 FW in step 1, you'll have baseband .72
I was thinking that GB would probably be better on single core Arc... but it was a close call.
Anyway, so far ICS is doing nicely. Certainly faster than it used to be, but that's probably down to the increase in memory I got by going with a custom ROM.
Out of curiosity, what might BB 72 offer by way of improvement?
As far as I know, there's no difference between .70 and .72 basebands.
But I found it easyer, when I did the steps, to just flash the newest firmware, which included the .72

Brick recovery

Hello all, I am requesting help with my Xperia Play.
It was not working smoothly, so I decided to install a custom ROM. I installed the ICS beta and then attempted to install xDark ICS but it has failed.
Pretty sure its R800i, bought unlocked in the UK
I cannot see anything on screen when I turn the device on
When the power button is pressed it vibrates slightly
I can put it in recovery mode (Holding Back and plugging USB) -light appears green
I can put it in fastboot mode (Holding Search and plugging USB) -light appears blue
When I try to flash any .ftf files with Flashtool it either comes up with an error or stays on "retrieving device information"
I cannot work out how to repair with PC Companion
When I select the .ftf file, no files appear in the firmware content. (I have tried various firmware files but any more would be appreciated)

The same problem happened to me... I learn how to unlock bootloader and install roms with flashtools... now I'm running CM9 RC2...

[Q] something gone wrong when flashing

So here's what I did so far... The bootloader was unlocked, so I rooted the phone, installed clockwork. I spent hours reading about kernels and the different roms but wasn' really getting anywhere. Since my phone needed to be taken to get repaired anyway I decided to just choose a rom and install it from the guide i was using.
I backed up using clockwork, formatted and installed, and it said it was fine. But when I reboot it just hangs on the Sony Ericsson screen, have to take battery out to turn it off....what can I do now? I can't load the backup image because it won't let me load clockwork. did this happen because I didn't install a custom kernel first?

flash another kernel (supported for your rom always)
boot on cwm
factory reset
mounts and storage > format system

flash your desirable rom, flash wifi modules and try again fresh

Your kernel is stock and bootloader locked? If so then download pc companion and do a repair and if your bootloader is unlocked then download a stock ftf file for your phone and flash it with flashtool. I had exactly same problem with flashing custom firmwares on my Arc s but after few tries I realized that i need to format every partition excluding sdcard in a "mounts and storage" sub-menu.

I think his bootloader is locked because he lost a recovery after flashing new rom. His CWM was probably installed with x-parts.
as I said... it wont let me go as far as being able to load up clockwork...

EDIT: it did that the first time, then i try the same way again and it gives me the previous error. would an older ftf make a difference?
You are sure that your bootloader is unlocked? Have you ever flashed a custom kernel using fastboot? If yes then try to flash custom kernel with recovery. If this wont help then try to update and reinstall your flashtool and download newest stock ftf for your phone.
I'm pretty sure it is, as I remember having a similar problem a long time ago and flashing it. problem is I don't have the old files i used before, and I can't find any downloads that work in my country..
Error code from your flashtool log looks like there is a problem with acquiring permission to flash a firmware and that suggests that your bootloader is locked. Try to download pc companion from sony site and do a repair. If your bootloader is locked this will restore your phone to stock and if your bootloader is unlocked then pcc wont recognize your phone.
just tried pc companion. it asks me to swipe the bar down, but as I can't get past the logo it wont work. so repair just hangs there...
What bar... I don't understand what you are talking about. For a repair with pc companion you don't even need to turn on your phone you just click update button and then small blue "repair" text in a popup window then firmware is downloaded and you are asked to turn off your phone and connect usb cable while holding a back button.
I found your previous thread and It looks like your bootloader is unlocked because OTA update bricked your phone. I have a link to a ftf you used last time to repair your phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1324707 (its inside of this archive with complete but outdated flashtool and drivers) but you should try a pcc first so we will be sure if your bootloader is locked or not.

Yep it's a good tool to return to stock and also to check if your bootloader is unlocked (Because it only works on unlocked bootloaders) Arc & couple other devices are supported but they are going to make more devices available:good:

[Help] I think I bricked my phone ?

Hey guys. I wanted to install CM 10 the Free Xperia one but it's stuck on the boot img. I flashed the kernel and when I try to install from recovery the zip it gives me an error. I wanted to connect my usb to copy the file again maybe it didn't copy right but I cant mount usb I get an error again. I tried to plug the usb when it's at boot and with Flashtool to flash the stock ftf the 58. And it gives me this.

First turn off your phone and try with fastboot if it works !!
I mannaged to install doom kernel and nxt so I booted in. But still I have the same thing when I want to flash the stock tft ERROR-
The ftf file may be corrupted. Check if the md5 sum matches and/or download it again

[FIX] Restoring Flashmode

UPD: same fix for Xperia L (C2105)
Some phones (I mean only Xperia M of course) for unknown reason can't enter to Flashmode (Vol Down + USB)
This mode obliviously required to flash stock ROM via Flashtool / PC Companion / SEUS
When try to enter it phone just won't connect. But phone itself works fine (can boot).
Yeah, there is stock CWM-backups, but anyway broken mode is not good.
I did some research with user that had this problem and found cause.
Somehow 4th partition (s1sbl2) contain wrong data – it mismatch with OK phone.
Seems there stored loader for dealing with flashing.
After restoring good partition dump Flashmode works!
This helped 2 people, so I want to share this widely.
Do it on your own risk.
If you have custom recovery (CWM / TWRP)
1. Download attached ZIP
2. Copy it somewhere on phone
3. Flash it via recovery like any other ZIP
If you have only root
0. Not rooted? Use Towelroot for 4.3
1. Download attached file 1.img
2. Copy it into root of internal storage
3. Install app Terminal Emulator
4. Launch it and enter su
5. Allow root access
6. Carefully enter this (at the end not number 12, there small L and 2):
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/1.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/s1sbl2

1. Copy that ZIP with fix to sdcard via cardreader
2. Unlock bootloader (required only fastboot, Google for tutorial)
3. Install via fastboot kernel with CWM (link in post)
4. Enter CWM: at Sony logo & purple LED press Vol Up (or Down?)
5. Flash that ZIP
6. Now flash stock ROM via Flashtool
Note: all your data on phone including internal storage will be erased (twice)
Please, write here about result.

No.
You need install CWM via fastboot after unlocking bootloader.
I already described this.

So you don't need this fix if Flashtool recognize phone.
What actually happen with phone?
Suddenly rebooted and stuck and animation?
Log probably point to often problem with NAND chip - it just going broken, similar to HDD / SSD.

Unfortunately, very likely this is classic faulty NAND memory problem.
There's a lot people faced this on XDA and other forums.
Only replacing board, probably by warranty.

It's normal, just flash stock via Flashtool
Or you can't due broken flashmode?

You definitely just need flash stock via Flashtool.
Forget about USB debugging, it's totally unrelated here.
Just carefully follow flashing tutorial
You need flash not in fastboot mode, but in flashmode.
