I think you applied wrong main firmware file.

[dobsontip]

i know that if you cancel it at the last number, if its .bin then it does freeze on xs++ as i know from K750i>W800i CID49 Conversion.

[eg555]

ok,
can I recover from it?

or is the phone totally bricked
with no hope of recovery?????

does you phone blink a red LED light by the power button or the infra red button when it try to turn it on? if it does, it could be a erom problem.
Cant really see what you flash to your phone cause i havnt read through your entire log, but i have feeling you flashed it with the wrong firmware.
it should be repairable thoguh.

try doing full flash XS++ 3.1 Guide-Flashing, Customizing, Recovering - Top Sony Forums
and also repair the erom Upgrading or repairing the EROM (FOTA) in phones CID 49 or CID 51 with Phone XS - Top Sony Forums

if u have ur back up gdfs from that phone add it to the mis box on se tool light press wright gdfs hold the 2 and 5 button and concet it to ur usb

[eg555]

ok, thankfully got the problem sorted out.

waited overnight then connected to xss++
reflashed main+fs.

in the process removed patches while flashing
now got the phone working again.

8th time I have tried to patch this phone unsuccesfuly
apparently its not possible to patch z550i.


anyway thanks guys for all your help.
p.s :would like to know if their is any other way to patch this phone.
