Does rooting leave your data intact - eg apps, contacts, messages, pics, music, etc?

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 am thinking to 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?

Aiya...last time does not ask him to get me a full FlashTool logs..
Too bad, my fren lives very far away from me...cannot test the device personally...

not sure he got unlock bootloader anot. should nvr try to flash ftf if dont have unlocked bootloader.
ask him get gingerdx, v20 and flash it see if it works. suspect is only bad rom. ask him restart phone b4 sony word come out keep on tap the back button. should be able to bring him to recovery

Eh...
Cannot flash with FlashTool without a unlocked BL? sad.gif
But the prob is i have ask him to try flashing with a ftf file...
hmm...
If unlock BL and over 11W29 sure can't even turn on...

the log that my fren sent to me say:
22/040/2012 17:40:12 - INFO - Loader : S1_Loader_Root_8e35 - Version : R4A045 / Bootloader status : UNROOTABLE / IMEI : 01256000104481

i dun think it can boot into Xrecovery...
cause i pretty sure the device has been wiped when he flash with FlashTool...

Hi all im from XDA. (just a liitle introduction lol)

"Version : R4A045"
if bootloader unlocked it should be "r4A045"
so it sure cant flash custom kernel.

what recovery is recommended for the X8? xRecovery / CWM?
*
Depends...
Mostly older rom are made for xrecovery
if u want to go to CWM, u can just simply flash a CWM zip from xrecovery, reboot and enter recovery mode like usual and u can get CWM
