i have a x10 mini pro and it got bricked.
i tried out every single procedure i could find on the internet. But still, i could not unbrick the phone.
The current status of my phone is , when i start it, it briefly vibrates then a blank screen appears for 5seconds. Then nothing for another 5 seconds, then the blank screen again... its the blank screen loop.
I dont see any Sony Ericsson logo or NAA kernel Logo.
The phone was running of
1. Naa Kernel v10,
2. cm7 1.9
3. unlocked boot loader
Things i tried:
1. Flashing stock rom and all other roms using flash tool.
2. Flashing Naa kernel v11.
3. Repair my phone using Sony Ericsson PC Companion.
4. Hard Reset.
5. Disassembled the device and the screen cables are good.
The adb does not recognize my phone, the flash tool recognizes my phone, but the PC Companion does not. When i select the Support Tool in the PC Companion and repair my phone, the PC Companion re-installs the Stock ROM successfully.
But still, i am stuck in the blank screen loop.
I had PMed this scenario to some experienced devs here in XDA.... and got replies too.... that didnt help again....
Please do help.
Thanks in advance.
It seems to be a hardware problem and not a brick.....
thanks to @leajian for the advice....
Thats a relief..... will give the device to the service center and see.....

I've bricked my SGS2 loads of times just by flashing roms, I just flash a stock rom back and start again then use my jig - that resolves bricking
Yup...
i did the flashing like 100 times....
restored the phone with pc companion another 100 times...
still the same thing..... blank screen loop.....
Hello everyone,
Yesterday I've tried to update my Xperia J to the new Jelly Bean firmware, but before that, I've done a full wipe and format system and cache through CWM. After that, I reboot my phone and it never goes after the Sony logo. I've tried to repair it with PC Companion, SUS and Flashtool, but everytime it starts to flash new Rom, the green led goes off and nothing is done.
Is there any solution for this, or should I go to the store and pray that it isn't to expensive to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
Its not hard bricked.Its really normal for green light to go off while flashing ftf.Just wait for the flashtool to complete preparing files and then connect your phone in flash mode(green led) after the prompt appears.It will instantly start the flashing process (and yes, the green led goes off as soon as flashing starts so dont worry).
You may also experience a strange problem where the flashtool gets stuck at 0 percent. You can fix that by trying some older version of flashtool.
Good luck

Thanks a lot for your help, I'm really getting stucked at 0 percent at Flashtool. I can´t even repair it with PC Companion, that's why I was afraid that is was an hard brick. I'm going to try with an older version of Flashtool as you've said.
Thanks again.
EDIT: I've tried with an older version of Flashtool and still no luck, always getting stucked at 0 percent. I read somewhere that my problem must be that my phone at this moment don't have any operating system and that probably I couldn't fix it at home. Is this true or is there something more I can do?
Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
Well i used to get this problem with my flashtool.Installing an older version did the trick for me.You can try flashing from some other system

Unloked bootloader????

Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
If you got unlocked bootloader then you can fastboot flash fxp kernel followed by the rom itself.This will atleast make your device functional again.

Unfortunately my bootloader is locked.
I will try again, but this time on my computer here at work.
EDIT: Still no luck in another computer. I guess I will need to go to Vodafone Store at the end of the day and see what they can do with my phone.
Good news!!
I've installed PC Companion here on my work computer and it repaired my phone. Probably there's some kind of problem with my computer at home. I'm already flashing Jelly Bean normally with flashtool.
Thanks a lot for your help balboarocky.
Use Flashtool for this

Really hard Brick sony xperia J
under clockwork mod (after using int for installing cyanogen) i want to erase some data because my Cyanogen install was bugged (i forgot to Md5 checksum, so the files was maybe corrupted),
but i was very tired.and it's more than possible than i erase boot or systeme,
since that NO Led, No fastboot or Flashmode connections,
Do you think my Xperia is dead from dead (tm) .
Edit : to make the phone react and avoid bootloop i have to remove the battery and use it like the "power button" to take my phone in Flashboot, reflash Cwm and my phone work again ....

Flasing finished without any error but when I try to turn the phone on it only giving me one short vibrate and black screen... after 3sec I can press and hold power button again and again short vibrate and black screen... No SONY logo... no Xperia logo.
When I connect phone to charger red LED is blinking, I tried different battery but result was the same.

Any help will be appropriated.

Yes... I tried that.
It looks like it was my fault... I flashed .ftf while battery level was under 10%
Phone is bricked and I lost interest in fixing this phone.
Thanks for your time to replay to my post
If your phone is connecting in flashmode, so what about flashing stock rom ftf via Flashtool ? Something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338074 or this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356876 ? Have you tried it ?

Hi, I'm a noob to this site and is my last call of action ive tried everything to get my phone working but I'm at a lost end now and getting frustrated.
If anyone can help me with my problem it will be much appreciated and a lot of pressure taken off me. to start with I towel rooted my xperia sp (c5303) which gave me root. I then installed a recovery called philz which worked great. installed lollipop all fine booted up but no data signal bar had explanation mark. I tried the data fix through recovery did not work so I thought il flash my device again to see if it rectifies my problem so I deleted all data cache delvic cache chose the file off sd card that I previously used but this time I got an error. and the phone just restarted . so I assume there is nothing on my phone now no firmware as it turns on comes up with the sony logo but hangs after a minute or so my phone turns its self off. I plug my phone into pc usb and the lightbar turns green at the bottom then after 40 seconds goes red with the sony logo again then after a minute reboots to green and so on in a boot loop state. I have tried flashing my phone to stock with flashtools but it gets so far then gives error that I don't have usb debugging and unknown sources enabled. I cant have them enabled as I cant access my phone. I have gone into flash tool drivers folder downloaded flashmode drivers and fastboot and viskan board it starts to install them comes up with welcome to device driver installation . sony(winusb) says failed. Google inc (winusb) says failed sony ericsson mobile communication says failed I assume it cant see my phone. I just don't understand what to do next.
If any body has had this problem could you please shed a little light, Thanks for taking time out to read this.

Hey guys i regularly follow ur posts and those are really helpful but its the first time i am writing as i am ****ed up with my xperia c4 device. Recently i upgraded my xperia c4 to android 6.0.1 marshmallow using your flash tool flash method as i had unlocked my bootloader. after that i found that my device isn't booting into recovery mode. whenever i tried to boot into recovery it stucks at sony xperia logo and after some while it restarts automatically to the system. So i thought the recovery might be deleted when i was flashing the firmware. i was using twrp recovery made by u guys
PHP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-c5-ultra/development/bootloader-unlocked-custom-recovery-t3285521
so I flashed that again using fastboot mode and it failed to flash and after that my phone gone totally black. Now none of the switches are working when pressing the power key its not even vibrating. when plugging it to pc via usb top notification led shows red and its not blinking. and the phone is automatically disconnecting after a while. i tried to flash the rom again through flash tool but it is showing "the device is connected usb debugging is off".
I am going crazy. please guys help me to fix this.:crying:
