[Xperia X] Sony Screen Bootloop after Flashing 3.0.3.9 Hossa

My Xperia X was recently on 3.0.2 (Oulanka) but after a soft-reset, it reverted back to 2.1 (Kymijoki). I didn't want to have to iterate through every update.

After downloading the latest 3.0.3.9 (Hossa) image from Jolla Shop, I proceeded to flash the image to my Xperia X F5121 using these instructions from Step 5 onwards.

When I initially flashed Sailfish 2.1 (Kymijoki) back in November 2017, I used the recommended binaries at the time, SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_M_MR1_3.10_v13_loire.zip. Along the way, I thought it best to obtain the latest binaries as they have been most likely updated, so I used SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_8.1.6.4_r1_v17_loire.zip as part of the flashing in Step 5.

After performing Step 6 in the Linux instructions, using flash.sh, the script completed without errors. However, upon restarting the device, I am perpetually stuck on the Sony boot screen.

Have I missed something during the flash process? Have I used the incorrect version of the binaries?
