Hardbricked Xperia Ray?! - General Questions and Answers

hi,
Today i've flashed the FXP201 file for running cyanogenmod on my phone. but when i rebooted my phone after doing that i've got an blank screen and i can't get to CWM recovery, so i can't flash another boot image. But it also doesn't want to connect to my computer, and i can't get it in to fastbootmode either (on-button + volume up) but when i try to turn it on it does vibrate...
so is it hardbricked? and can i do some thing about it?

Flash this and you will SURE have CMW:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331381
Also be sure you are doing it right
1.-Turn off the phone.
2.-Press volume up + volume down +power button
3.- As soon as "Samsung" screen appears release power button while STILL holding vol up + vol down.
4.- Keep vol up + vol down pressed for about 5 secs after you released the power button
5.- Release vol up and vol down and it should go straight to Recovery.
If that doesnt work flash the defused file from the link i posted you ( Im not the author its AdamOutler)

[Q] T-Mobile LG G2 stuck in fastboot, can't get into recovery

Update: I messed around with fastboot a bit more and managed to brick it entirely. It's stuck in a boot loop now -- it won't even power off -- and there's nothing I can do about it, so I just took it in to get it replaced.
Hey guys, I know this thread is very similar to others that have been posted, but I've already looked through them and haven't found anything that works for me yet.
My phone was already running rooted stock with TWRP for the recovery. I tried flashing CM10.2 but it was for the wrong model (I downloaded D802 but my phone is of course D801. Oops). Upon reboot, the LG splash screen appeared and then immediately went to a black screen saying
Code:
Fastboot mode started
udc_start()
When I attempt to turn the phone off it just reboots to that screen again. I am still able to use fastboot, and have tried wiping the phone and re-flashing TWRP. It doesn't throw any errors but I still can't actually boot into recovery. I can't use fastboot to flash a new ROM onto the phone though, since it doesn't like .zip archives apparently, and I can't find a .img file of a ROM anywhere.
When I try to use flashtool as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541087 it says the device is not connected (probably because it's not in download mode?).
Any help would be much appreciated. All I need to do is get into recovery, it shouldn't be this hard.
That's the same error I got a few days ago when I mis-flashed a new recovery (oops. and be careful when you use 'dd', because a typo can nuke your recovery). I'd get that error message if I tried to boot into recovery, but if I just let the phone boot, it would boot fine. It was easy to fix, but that was because I just used Terminal Emulator to re-flash recovery.
Your best bet might be to go back to stock. Try this thread.
similar issue, but not quite

I'm not in a boot loop, as I can power off and it will stay off. But I am stuck at the Fastboot mode started screen (I can't get download mode to come up). When I do try to get into download mode it flashes for a second, but then goes back to the fastboot mode screen.
I'm hoping to find an image that I can use the fastboot flash recovery command with to re-write my recovery partition.
Any suggestions on where to find this image file? Or am I going down the wrong path?
Thanks,
Joseph
Did you get it to work? I am in the same mode.
I'm stuck here as well. Looking for a fix
Did you guys find a fix? I need help with this...
similar thing here with me
any solution
i cant boot at all, not into download mode, nor recovery,
got this too because i was installing a note3 rom to my d800, acciodentally of coarse. i managed to boot to twrp by doing the power and volume down technique. and from twrp i restored my recent backup
To anyone still stuck in this situation (reboot loop, no recovery etc):
- Unplug the phone from the USB cable
- Hold down the power until the phone turns off
- Wait a couple of minutes with the phone off
- Now hold power and volume down buttons
- When LG logo appears - release power and volume down and hold them again
- When you see a white screen with "reset to default instructions" -- do what it says, meaning pressing the power button a couple of times
THAT should work.

All I did was hold power and volume down until the LG logo came on (not when it flashed for just a split 2nd) and then pressed and held power down again and it came to the white screen. Then I pressed power 3 times and got into recovery

Not sure if you've tried this. To power off fully, press and hold the volume down and power buttons. Do not let go of the buttons. The phone should turn off and the LG logo should appear. Continue holding until after the LG logo disappears. The phone should be fully off and won't turn back on at this point. If you don't see the LG logo, just keep the buttons pressed for about 10-15 seconds and you should be fully powered off by then. You should be able to enter download mode from here (press and hold volume up button while plugging in USB from computer). If you are able to enter download mode, then use the LG mobile support tool in my thread and follow the instructions. This should flash the latest stock system to your phone. If that doesn't work, I have a link to an alternate method for flashing the latest stock system on your phone. Hope this helps.

Bootloop, no Recovery, no Download

Hello,
sorry that I have to bother you with this.
I had a S6 (G920F) with Maniacx Ressurection Remix Unofficial OREO 6.10 , with Magisk 7.10 and TWRP 3.2.1 running.
Because of a problem with calls, I flashed a .zip that fixed the problem before (it's CallAudioFix.zip in that thread – can't find it right now, but I can look for it later if it's any help). That sent my phone into a bootloop.
My problem is that I can't boot into Recovery or Download mode. Windows (in a VirtualBox) finds a SAMSUNG_Android device per USB, but ODIN can't find it (doesn't show anything under ID:COM). ADB in my terminal finds the phone, but it shows it as unauthorized, so I can't use it, either.
I appreciate any help – thanks in advance!

Thanks for your tip, didn't work for me, sadly. If I press and hold the combination for the recovery, I get back into my bootloop. If I press the combination for download mode, nothing happens until I hold it for too long and trigger the battery disconnect (volume down + power).

I'll rather avoid trying to remove the battery for that.
If I hold all buttons, I can only get the "Samsung S6" screen to flash for a second before it goes off and on again (tried for a minute as you suggested).
I tried holding the combos before the kernel screen, directly at it and holding it for a minute, but it only sends me back to the bootloop. Also, I don't get any text on the kernel screen.
Guess I have to keep trying around for a bit...
Try after that flash appears for second to press combo fast i remember that worked for me at same state of bootloop

Samsung Galaxy a40 stuck on "powered by android" screen

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy A40 and yesterday I tried to flash LineageOS (I already have experience flashing gsi's), but when i rebooted the system, it just stuck on the "Powered by Android" screen.
It's not even rebooting, it just stays on that screen until the battery dies. So I've tried to let the battery drain and then booting into download mode after charging it a bit by pressing Vol Up + Vol Down and then plugging it into pc, but for some reason it just won't boot into download mode. What can I do now without having to risk booting into that screen and having to wait another full day again?
Hi,
You probably have to flash the latest firmware for your device.
If the phone freeze on the powered by android screen you can press and hold volume down + power and the phone will force reboot.
To reach download mode you can try this :
Turn off the device
Press and hold Volume UP key + Power Key for a while
Release all key when Samsung logo appears then you will see Android System Recovery
Select Reboot to Bootloader
Use Power key to Confirm

The easiest step is the keys but look like it doesnt work for you.
You should try to boot with different key combination get past the bootscreen, otherwise i suggest you to got to a repair center if you can't
