You have soft bricked your phone just recover your phone using SEUS or PC companion. You dont need to unlock your bootloader to install a new custom Rom. There is some Roms you could install with a stock kernel.
Use the flashtool. I don't have the link to it but you should find it easily.
Read Read Read before trying anything. There is loads of tutorials.

look like very2 scared!!
don't panic!
just use SEUS
1-update using SonyEricsson Update Service
2-click update and follow the simple step
(when u see "your phone software is updated") just click install
please reply
yep, you can use seus. if you fix it and root it again, please try not to unlock your bootloader again please.lol
P.S if you think you could, could you tell me why did you try to unlock your bootloader. was it because of the modules you could add on?
SEUS is not available form long time
Use PC Companion
Why did SEUS disappear?

sorry bro late to reply....i cant do it because my phone totally not function...LED also not blink...and usb can't detect anymore...i have use W8 and i unlocked using x8 method...is it the cause for my problem??
I´ve heard of people unlocking the bootloader on their W8 without any brick, only the kernels didn´t work.
By the way:
Have you ever heard of the "search-function", because with this function, you´l find this if you search for "unbrick".
You probably have new security phone, so unlock method is outdated for your phone.
So what he need to do ?

is there any telltale info that could indicate the phone has new security feature? I think it would be helpful for a lot of owners to know before they find out too late.

Most likely they can fix your phone ... one would at least assume that a Sony Ericsson service center has some means to restore shot devices through a JTAG interface or by directly wiretapping the NAND and re-writing its contents.
Though - better ask them to call you back in case the repair would become too costly (i.e. the service center would replace the components boards instead of just restoring the NAND of the device)

Try Flashing again mate? Phone Date?
Try to remove battery for more than 30sec, then put it back. Download s1tool (if You don't have it), run it, click on [Do job] or [Identify] button and connect Your x8 holding back button. If nothing happens - than sorry mate, but You have propably hard bricked Your phone

To make a long story short ...
If the phone does NOT show any signs of life of anymore (no green LED when being connected to the charger, NO screen output, NO vibration when you press the power button) it's a hard brick now.
Only way left, in case you still have warranty, is to send it off to Sony for repair.
IF it still shows signs of life (like the LED flashing in red or orange) then try to connect it in flashmode and re-flash the matching baseband. Though, chance are at 99.8% that you soft-bricked it by interrupting the USB connection.

You might also want to try the Xperia Active Launcher instead. It also uses the four corner system, but even better than the stock launcher.

11w29+ is RISKY. Just because a couple of people have unlocked theirs does not minimize the risk. you were very lucky.

Bricked

Hi,
I've tried to upgrade to CM 10 on my X8, but now i can't boot it since it gets stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo. I've tried Update Service Pc companion and flashtool but none of them worked. Any help would be appreciated!

It's just a soft brick. Pcc, seus, and flashtool should be able to help you out. But what do you mean they don't work? More info please. What happens when you flash stock rom using flashtool, for example?
