Hi, by mistake I deleted my settings.ini file in the file manage. The sound when the phone starts and shuts off disappeard. Thats the only thing I noticed that is different. I would like to know if there is a way to restore that file or if it can be copied from another device, I dont want to try hard reset unless I know it really helps. I am currently running unrooted the stock 2.1 ROM, and waiting for the ofiicial update in my region (slovakia). Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.

please tell me you installed xrecovery. if so then boot into xrecovery and restore a backup
option 2​use pc companion to restore.
hi, i had x recovery installed on my x8 which was rooted, i had upgraded to froyo bread but was having issues with the camera, so i dowloaded a new rom, and tried xrecover to install the new rom. but kept getting md5 checksum errors.
i have just downloaded flashtools to try and re write the firmwear, but it wont see my phone.
its stuck at the sony erricson boot screen, and the flash tool is reporting the phone has usb de bugging turned off, so i guess it wont let me re flash the firmwear
ok. got pc companion trying to update the phone, fingers crossed
I think this might help you...
can you boot into recovery again??

yep fingers crossed.
p.s i think it says md5 sum error because something was rewrote. title maybe?
Thank you
hello again, thank you for your help. my phone is now opperational again.
i used pc companion to re write a copy of the original firmwear, and everything is now working fine, just as it was when i purchased it new. phew.
cant thank you guys enough.
i was actually trying to change my os when this happened. from froyo to gingerbread. the version i downloaded used md7?? (i am new to all this and dont fully understand) but my phone was looking for md5, something like that.
got the fun job of rooting it again now lol.
what is the best android version for the x8 that still alows for the use of the camera?

Flashtool?
- Grab it, enable USB-Debugging on your phone, connect it to the computer.
- Press "Ask root perm" and keep an eye at your phone - you need to confirm a superuser request.
*Achievement unlocked*
- Press the now unlocked "xRecovery" button to inject xRecovery
And remember that you can also root your phone from Flashtool.
PC Companion... Update Service... Hah!... Useless crap since we got Flashtool... Sony Ericsson doesn't release any more updates for the X8 anyway, so it's kinda useless as the Android drivers can be installed manually without the need to install PCC or SEUS.
hey guys, i had a galaxy s that i had flashed android 2.3.5 on to, i used odin to flash the same rom on to the phone when i sold it a short while back, the current owner says it doesnt want to turn on wifi. the current owner said it begins to turn on in the phone and then shuts right off. the only idea i have is to reflash odin to the phone again, but the problem is i dont have the phone anymore and i cant find the tutorial for the process or the required files. any help would be great. thanks guys
nevermind i think i may have found what i need here

okay so I need some serious help. Im new to LG and yesterday I did something stupid. I flashed on a D955 rom onto my D995 phone and now I cant restore this stupid thing. It keeps giving me an error because of the DLL and I need a DLL that will bypass the check or a KD file perhaps. I used the custom LGUP_8974.DLL ( custom one ) but the thing is it still gives an error. IDK what I was thinking, I was pretty stoned when I did this so I just went with it trying to restore it back to sprint. I have the right file now to restore it but im stuck cuz I don't have a recovery on my phone. I can still access some weird recovery mode thing with the Volume up + power button for adb but I need this fixed asap. this is my work phone and we don't have insurance x.x so I maaaaajorly messed up. Can anyone help?
