[Q] Need some info about brick...

---

Hi all...
My friend sent his X8 to a phone shop to get it updated to android 2.3.7 and ended up with a bricked phone cause by that phone shop.

Now, which according to him stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" logo...Which i know is a soft brick and most probably can be saved by flashing it with PCC or SEUS or FlashTool.

I have ask him to flash it with SEUS or FlashTool, but not successful, still stuck on the SE logo, i doesn't know weather he do it wrongly or does not has any patient...

I gonna buy this phone from my friend, and repair the phone myself.
I want to ask u guys is there any other reason for the phone to stuck at the SE logo other than bricked phone? Could it be a hardware prob?

Thanks...
Cheers...

Maybe the shop took something from the phone:what:


White Sony Xperia X8
Cypress Screen with 3M protector
11w34 unlocked bootloader
Now with Cm9 nAa kernel

I have been stuck on Sony Ericsson logo a thousand times.

I always repair it successfully by using the "Repair" option in PCC.
It's simple and easy and works every time for me.
