Hi, I am having an issue getting my X2 into boot mode in order to update the firmware - even following the instructions on SE Update Service (press and hold volume down button and power button until white screen appears)
All that happens is the vibration feedback to indicate power on, then the phone loads up as normal.
I've updated another X2 and it worked correctly, the problem appears to be with this specific unit.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what may be causing this, or how to get this one into boot mode please?
Best to send it to service centre..
could it be because it's made in china? just a thought...
Just note that on the X2 you wont see the bootloader.
You know your in the bootloader when the phone stand on the SE Logo.
Then you can connect the phone and update it
Hi, thanks for the advice all
I can't send it to a service centre as I don't have a receipt unfortunately
I'm not sure what being built in China has to do with it not entering boot mode, most SE phones are and I've not had a problem with my other ones?
Thanks for the advice on boot mode - I successfully used SEUS an another X2 and the boot mode is essentially a white screen with the SE brand logo - sadly I don't get that white screen just the black screen with logo and vibration feedback then it powers on.
Any other suggestions or should I give up and sell as faulty/parts only?
Thanks

And the X1 was made in Taiwan. What's your point?
bootloader phone stand on the SE Logo
hm, obviously missed that one after X2 subfora where created...
Mod. edit: moved to correct forum, X2 General
try this:
read all steps first
turn off phone
pull out battery wait ten seconds
put battery back in (leave cover off)
hold the power button + hold volume down
press the soft restart button* (while still holding the power button + volume down)
keep buttons held down till you see the white screen and green logo.
note* push the button with stylus it is hidden under where the stylus goes in next to the camera.
plug into the computer and run SUES it'll say already have latest version update anyways? click yes
i had to do this when i bricked my phone, (my computer crashed while i was doing the update) it really saved my day.
x2 dead
I have same problem in my phone , during update with SEUS computer hang and now
my phone shows only vibrate.
i have tried volume down+power+reset
but it can't go to white screen or sonyericsson logo.

The battery came out will the device was connected to the computer via usb. Don't ask how I was messing about, the back came off and then the battery fell out. Now I can't turn it on. When I plug into the mains adaptor the charge light does come on. Any ideas.
Thanks
try to set the device in BOOTMANAGER mode and see if you at least can access that part of the phone!
What did you do when the battery 'came off'? Flashing it?
If you did not flash it press and hold the power button and remove the battery. Keep pressing the power button for an additional 15 to 30 sec after you removed the battery.
Leave the phone without the battery for half an hour or so, then press and hold Power for 30 sec. While still holding the power button place the battery back in, release power, wait 10 sec and try to turn it on ...
Thanks very much for your reply. I had just flashed it. It had rebooted and hung on the splash screen. I then picked up the phone and accidently knocked the battery out. Do you think this makes a difference to your suggestion?
Tried your technique but nothing unfortunately. It may be dead!
Thanks anyway.
Maybe my phone is dead too
I did the same with my phone...just did a flash and rebooted and now freeze on the splash screen...what can i do to save my phone?
If you're phone still turns on and just hangs at the splash screen as far as I understand you can then hold down the camera button and press the soft reset key. This should take you into the bootloader. From there you can re-flash the device with a different ROM like 'Wizard Love' (you can find it on this site somewhere, use search) or download the latest ROM from your provider. Use a NO_ID flash utility which means you don't have to have Activesync 'active'. My problem is slightly different as my device won't turn on at all. I've just bought a replacement battery just incase thats the problem. Otherwise I guess its gone for good.
If the flash finished successfully you can try first:
HOLD CON KEY (left side of the phone) + VOICE DIAL KEY (right side of the phone) + RESET. This will HARD RESET your device and re-initialize the ROM - might be that that can fix it! If not try to reflash it with the shipped ROM
BOOTLOADER MODE:
Power button + Camera button + Reset.

Thanks for the bootloader info....I had totally messed up my 8125 earlier...and now its back!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
xperia x2 died trying to update the software with seus
1 - no longer recognized by the pc by pressing (- volume and power)
2 - when power is pressed, the phone vibrates but does not start
anyone knows how to take him??
There is no way to flash from sd memory?
D e t a i l s ..........
We need DETAILS !
Did it happen during Download or after it finished download AND did the flashing start at all and if so HOW long (the bar) into the flash? Middle, End...etc.!
You have to take out the battery and then again press Volume DOWN and then the Power Button and HOLD both.... for at least 10-12 seconds for me, and after that the white screen with se logo should come up.
If this does not work, try again and again until it does. But always, REMOVE the Battery before doing it again.
By the way, what happens when you just start the phone?
exactly the same thing happend to me earlier this summer
went to se service center but they couldnt fix it so they sent it to se
they couldnt even fix it so i got a new device
same here...except it didn't even let me update, showed some error and now i can't turn it on. it vibrates when pressing power or reset button and that's about it.
now to make things worse i live in canada and bc X2 never even got released here I can't send it to service centre
how much do i hate SE?????????????????

Were you with him when it was bricked? Are you sure it went off on its own?
(because as far as I know, the HD2 won't shut off for no reason, taking into account that the battery was fully charged.)
Also, since the device boots up, I doubt it is bricked.
If you have HSPL on it, than it is not bricked.
Try this:
1) Take out the battery for 30 sec at least
2) Put it back in and press the volume down button (and hold it), while you press on the Power button (an hold)
Until you enter the 3 colour screen
After you are there, just connect it to the PC and as soon as it says USB you can flash MALGDR or anything you want.
Good luck.
ughhh
man i think my hd2 is brickd like it wont even turn on it only vibrates a lil wen i press the power button any help please

When it vibrates, isn't it a sign that it's booting up? Try doing what Johev stated. Hold the Volume down button while it's booting up or even while holding the power button. If you can get to the tri-colored screen, your phone is safe.

LAST TIME WHICH ROM U WERE USING..? just continuously press power,camera button alone while connected to pc.. Sometime it may turn up fastboot mode..
A better question is to find out what he was doing prior to the Streak dying, in precise detail.
In any event, this Streak needs to be JTAGged to revive it, but then the Streak cannot be used for calls.
I don't see an attempt to enter QDL mode.
Remove battery, hold volume up. Connect Streak to PC not releasing volume up.
If new device appears, there's a chance to restore Streak with StreakFlash.

Remove sim card SD card then try to switch on ...charge battery with these two removed...it may work out
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda app-developers app
Hi All,
I need your quick help, I dont know why but I cannot start my Samsung focus v1.3.
I tried to flash it by pressing power button + volume down + camera button but can't do hard reset.
When I am trying to remove battery and reattach battery again, then phone just showing "SAMSUNG" screen and again goes switched off.
Even I tried to press power button + volume UP + camera button then it shows only "Download Mode" screen only nothing happens after this.
Please need your help!
Many thanks in advance,
Since you just flashed it, I assume that it started up by displaying 'SAMSUNG" and seems to be stuck there.
If that is the case, you need to be patient. It takes a few minutes to get past that point. Every time I flash, I feel like I have done something wrong and the phone is bricked. But it always moves past that point after a few minutes.

Thanks for your reply,
But I haven't flashed my phone..
and from yesterday it is showing same 'SAMSUNG' name screen and then again goes switched off..
dont know what is going wrong.. or is it due to battery issue?
please help!
nah, it's the power button switch which somehow got stuck, it's a relatively common issue with the focus it seems
some people have reported that cleaning the button helps, others simply have replaced the whole switch at a local repair center... do what you think is best

But how power button works when I press (Powerbutton + Volume UP + Camera button), screen shows me "Download Mode" nothing happens after that. Yesterday whole I tried these options..

To flash magldr, you need that combo , press power button + volume UP + camera button then it shows only "Download Mode". To flash a ROM, you go Vol DOWN, and then reset your phone, or format, and then go back to the same menu, and when you see the do you want to format your phone stuff, you hit the back button and you'll see the magldr screen where you'll connect your USB and go forward with the flashing process. Perhaps try flashing an actual ROM to your phone. You can't really do squat from from the download screen but add magldr really. Hope that helps you.
Please need your help!

because download mode disables the power switch (it even says "do not turn off"), that's why it seems to "work". power switch is active at the format prompt, however, so when you enter that mode the phone turns off immediately afterwards
do a little experiment: remove the battery, then put it on again while you're pressing volume down plus camera... you'll probably see a little surprise there
it's the switch. go repair that nao
