Hi there.
Yesterday, for no apparent reason de device stopped syncing my Gapps data. OEM 2.1 ROM. I did a backup and reset the device to factory defaults. Even if battery went to 100% and the USB cable were connected, the phone did not finished the process and now I have a non turning on mini pro. Mac does not feel it, neither Windoze or Linux with dmesg. PC Companion won´t see it neither. Neither FlashTool. I tried to flash it with the original ftf but the phone do not turn on and of course FlashTool won't see it. Tried pressing home and on/off but nothing. I searched like a dork for "bricked xperia x10 mini pro" but there´s a lot of crowd calling a semi-bricked, bricked. Which is not, because a semi-bricked can be repaired with SEUS or even FlashTool.
I know is a whole different animal, but once I bricked a Nokia and with some trickery the device came to life.
Guys, you`re my only hope. I really like this phone for texting and everything.
Thank you for reading. Best regards.
Bump!
Please help me out! At least tell me anything.
Thanks.

What do you mean?
When PC Campanion says "hold back key and connect phone to USB" then It detects the device.
I have bricked SE Xperia X10 mini pro, same simptoms phone doesn't react to anything it's absolutely silent, no image, no text.
And yes I tried SEUS, PC Companion, Flashtool (with ggsetup) and Omnius. Nothing hepled.
May be a battery is down but I can't check it as well.
Same here. The phone doesn't react to "off" button, No LEDs, no display, no sound, won't get recognized by Flashtool when USB plugged in with "back" held, a total, real brick, dark and dead and invisible to all software.
The battery was full - it was full when the phone got bricked by installing a kernel for ICS.

I have the same problem please help:crying:
When you put the tick called "preloader" in Flashtools - then the phone is dead... now only jtag method may can help you(in some phone service)
I remember that one morning I found my Xperia Arc S with stock GB 2.3.4 rom like dead although it was fine when I plugged the charger in before I slept. In the morning I couldn't turn it on, removing and replacing battery did nothing. No light when I charged it. It was really looking like it was forever dead. After a few days, in despair, I tried every reset method I could find about Xperia phones, except the one that finally worked:
I holded the back or menu button (I forgot which one) then plugged in the USB cordon to the computer. I got a green or blue light! I learned later that it was Fastboot mode or Flash mode. Then I unplugged the device, and it started like if nothing happened. I only had this problem once again. Since I rooted it and installed a custom rom, I never had this issue again.
If you didn't try this yet, that is worth trying
Bricked Sony Xperia X10 Mini Pro (U20)
Hi, I really need your help.
I have bricked my Xperia x10 Mini Pro (u20)
I had CM7 Custom Mod running on my phone,
I update CWM 2.0 to 5. something and suddenly it stop working.
It hangs at the Sony Ericsson Boot Logo.

I tried the PC Companion Repair, but it won't go past the "press and hold the back Key"
Because my PC won't recognize my Phone. (I had the SEMC USB drivers installed already)
Please help!!! Thank you

Hello there!
so here's the deal. I was getting a phone of my sister, a Xperia Miro ST23i, she decided to factory reset it, halfway through the format process it was taking a while so she decided to take the battery out "wasn't a good idea" and now it won't power on, shows no sign of life.
i've tried getting it into flashmode to use with flash tool but no success, pc companion doesn't bring up the phone and neither does Sony Update Service, it said "unknown device" in device manager until i installed Gordons Gates, now it says "ZEUS flash device" i've searched Google and xda but found nothing, also shows no sign of it charging now when i plug it in.
So now i'm completely stuck and would appreciate any help someone has to offer

Thank you for ur reply, yes bootloader was unlocked and I was trying to install the custom rom but after restarting my xperia L never started again. Black dead...no logo just red LED blinking and I tried key combination but nothing. To repair through sus and flash tool it should be recognized by the pc. Its being recognized as unknown device by pc and did try to install driver manually but no luck. In both sus and flash tool I found message no phone attached.
Plz guide me.

Thanx, Before this issue with my Xperia L I was using PC companion and I guess this already installed drivers but now neither PC companion/SUS nor flash is detecting my phone. I am using windows 8 currently but I also tried on windows 7 to install the drivers but no luck. My friend suggested that I need a boot loader as all the data in my Xperia L has been washed out due to bad flashing. In my country no boot loader device available for Sony Xperia 2013 models. Any alternate solutions?
Bootloader..?!! I think you don't have any kernel in your phone currently that's why it isn't recognizing your phone by the PC.. Try using SUS on Windows 7..make sure your driver's are installed properly.. Either through SUS or Flashtool..
If your phone is Not Recognized by Flashtool that means you don't have Required Drivers Installed. Use the Below method to Solve this Problem.
Open the folder /Flashtool/drivers & Install "ggsetup-2.2.0.11".
If Still after the Above Process Flashtool doesn't Recognize your Phone. Use this Method.
Open the /Flashtool/driver folder & Extract the "XXX_ADB_Driver.zip" anywhere on your PC/Mac/Linux. [ This Zip corresponds to your Phone Model. ]
Now Open "Device Manager" on your PC/Mac/Linux & find the device which is with an Exclamation mark on it. [ Make sure your phone is Connected to the PC ]
Right Click on that Device & Choose Update Driver.
Choose to find the Driver Manually.
Now Browse to the Folder where to have Extracted your Phone Model Zip File.
This will Install the Required Drivers on your Computer.
After that Open Flashtool Again & Try to Recognize your Device.
If Still you see any problem reply back for further assistance..
Hit Thanks if I helped you..

Hi pervenkal, try varunpilankar steps, I too faced this issue while flashing my Xperia L for the first time, 7 months ago. But it is most probably driver issue, during that time I tried lots of drivers even the one given with flashtool, but finally drivers from ADT bundle helped me.

U try to charge the phone??
Blinking red ligth is for no batery power
Maybe is this the problem

The red blinking light sounds like your battery is low, I read about someone who had do e this not long ago. Couldn't boot tinto recovery because they had insufficient charge. Charge your phone on mains power for an hour, and then try flashtool again. But make sure you wipe everything.

First, Which phone you have, c1905 is Xperia M
Second, Flashing Xperia M ftf to Xperia L is a guaranteed brick ==
i don't think it can be fixed without a complate nand rewrite. just a assumption
@asad69 have you checked wipe data and wipe cache when you flashed with flash tool?

First of all how exactly did you rooted your phone and how you unlocked boot-loader and what was the order? Also which OS are you using on computer?
Gave it to service center

Actually I tried to partition the sd card via TWRP... Then it worked properly for sometime.... Then it went off..... I have windows 8
I gave my phone to the authorised Sony service centre.... They fixed my phone by changing the motherboard and no service fee because my phone was in warranty
hi, just have my xperia z3 and i decided to flash and update my phone from kitkat to lollipop using flashtool. Unfortunately, I flashed the the wrong firmware (D6603, supposedly D6613). Now the phone does not turn ON, charging and hardly not recognized by the computer when connected ("USB unrecognized and malfunction"). I've tried different computers but still the same, I cannot flash the right firmware because it cannot be detected by the computer. Is there anyway or need to do to make it work. Please help, I appreciate any ideas you may share.:crying::crying:
Use PC Companion and repair your phone.
Thank you, I wanted to repair it using PCC but as I have said it cannot be detected by the computer. What is the problem? Please help... Pleeeeeaaassssssseeeeeeeeeeee:crying:

Is this the same for you ?
What model is your phone?Is your bootloader unlocked/upgraded? What did you try?
Is your flashmod working? And flastboot? Light status, etc... ?
