I was trying to unbrand/flash my w580i. It was branded to att, and I used a tutorial from youtube. All went well until I turned it on, and then the screen was all stretched, so I tried to upgrade it, using the sony upgrader. The upgrader said it failed, and now my phone wont even turn on. What should I do? Please help!

Yeah, I used setool, and I tried it again. At least it will turn on now, but the screen is still all stretched out and distorted

Re: Bricked my W580i
use xs++ to flash your main software and custompack.
remember that main and software must match.
custompack has to relate to the language chosen.

Re: Bricked my W580i
everyone is voting for firmware problem. so reflash. maybe you should post a XS++ log here and what languages you want and then we will tell you which specific firmware to get.

Re: Bricked my W580i
I have a question, if my w580i is " AT&T red CID53" model, what versions of XS++ should I use for?
