[Q] did I kill my precious when updating the ROM?

---

I made a terrible mistake, I followed the instructions to update to MiniCM6 and forgot the 'Factory Reset' before restarting my phone.

Now the X11 mini keeps rebooting in loop, I cannot access xRecovery any more. When I withdraw the battery and plug the usb when pressing the back button, I can flash with FlashTool.exe again as I needed before to have the baseband 015.

I don't know what to to and cannot find any clue on the forum.

tomorrow will be a day without phone... back to the 80's

Someone knows what I could do?

(To be more precise I uploaded MiniCM7, not MiniCM6)

The software Sony PC companon told me that there is not version yet available for this model, very strange after warning me that all my data would be deleted I hoped a full restore (it also requires a start with the back button pressed)

Do a SEUS repair, install recovery through the flash tool and then go to the Mini PRO forum and download their ROMs because a Mini Pro cannot use a Mini (without the keyboard) ROM and visa versa.

Let this be a lesson to always follow the instructions... thats why they there...

Good luck!!

I have been trying that from the beginning and it kept telling me
"there is no software available for your phone yet, please try again later" when I choose "repair" in the PC Compagnon. I never could find "repair" in the SEUS

According to the sony forum it seems I'm not the only one without repair option on SEUS and having "there is no software available for your phone yet, please try again later" on PC compagnon.
But non of the threads finish well...

I think Vodafone Australia didn't do their homework somehow... and Sony punishes their customers...

Please use "Search" option, it's pretty nice one.

I've spent hours using it... remember I have no phone anymore, it's a good motivation.

This whole thread that you link (thank you for trying) just say "launch SEUS". Basically, the first thing that I tried before writing here.

I though you use to have such problem and had your own way. But since the SEUS and PC Compagnon failed you seems as powerless as me
Even on the SE forum nobody know what to do when the "repair" is just not available.

There's a ROM for each provider, I guess Sony bugged on Vodafone Australia.

Then, Try this

If you can't fix your device with that thread, you should take it to Someone who knows how to do it, You can make more damage to your device, if you do something bad.

Hope it works for you.
Regards

Thanks to this link I found a complete ROM from a UK X10 Mini.

Many thanks D4rKn3sSyS !!!!!! it's back to life

Phone came back to life after flashing stock SE rom using Flashtool. It's much better than SEUS
