Hi,
some days ago I connected my Tipo to the charger before going to sleep. When I woke up it was turned off. I removed the battery then I put it back but still it didn't power on.
Sometimes, when I tried to power it on, it vibrated (as it usually does when I power it on) or there is the red led (like if the battery is discharged). It never powers on, neither with the charger.
I tried another battery (a friend has the same smartphone), but nothing changed.
Did someone have the same problem and solved it?

As soon as I can use a PC with win7, I'll try. At the moment I have windows8 and I don't find the proper drivers.
But maybe I can't solve the problem. I tried the fastboot mode and it doens't work.
Ok, I tried but it doesn't work. I can't use the fastboot mode.
I guess I'm going to bring it to a repair center.

It's a dead phone, much people had those issues, for no reason.

Hi guys so i flashed cm 10 and the bootloader all was fine switched internal for eternal storage still every thing was fine tried restoring some apps it stuck at 92% for 3 hour so i rebooted phone, then gave back to wife however dont think she liked it and she told me she had restored back to factory and when her phone rebooted nothing happened i have tried hooking it up to flash tools but it wont find my phone i have tried logging in to fastboot via cmd prompt just says waiting for device no lights come on totally dead me thinks but looking for an expert to tell me hopefully different
but really think its dead it also as unlocked bootloader please help TIA
Oh it might be hard bricked.. Does it vibrate on pressing power button. Flashmode doesn't start? (green led)
And how did your wife return to stock? Flash ftf file?
Also how does device manager show the connected phone?
Sent from my ST27i
no it doesnt vibrate and no lights all she did was it was on cm10 she went into settings and restore to factory then this happened pc makes the noise when plug it in but nothing happens and device manager wont pick it up, dont even thinki can take to shop or send to sony as it has unlocked bootloader can this phone be fixed to u no bud or will it be cheaper to just buy new 1 as i honestly think this 6 week old phone is dead it doesnt do anything m8
Download stock ftf
Open flashtool first
Press power off +vol down button and connect usb quickly if flashtool recognizes
Then flash the stock ftf and research before flashing anything
And give me the built number of cm10 buicd
noob and learning
hit thanks if I helped you
it was fxp 211 and fashtool doesnt help m8 as it wont pick my phone up
Sounds hard bricked.. Try flashtool on another pc to rule out driver issue. If flashtool can't fix it, it's gotta go back to Sony.
Also try plugging it to charger for a few hrs, battery may be drained..

from what i have read bud sony will charge me to fix it as i have unlocked bootloader will it be cheaper to buy new phone or will it be best to send back TIA

You will have to act lame, and not mention anything about rooting or unlock bootloader.. Tell it died under normal circumstances, like dead battery, or something weird like crashed, and on reboot it never started. Depending on how you sell it, and your country, them may not check BL (or they may not be able to) so give it a shot and be creative
And before repairing and charging you anything, they have to inform you of your warranty status, so you can decide then which is cheaper.
Sent from my ST27i
awesome thanks m8 i will give it a try as i got nothing to lose bud kind of hoping it needs a new phone so they dont find out but thanks for help m8
same thing happened to me.just take it to any repair center.
They check via IMEI if the bootloader is unlocked. If it is they don't touch it and they tell you to buy a new one. My tipo was dead almost two months ago. If it is possible use another battery and try to install stock firmware via flashtool. My brother has Neo V which use the same battery with tipo and my device became alive.

Hi,
I have a xperia e dual and was using NoZ rom (stock JB based ) till now. I recently installed the XboosT (stock ICS based) rom. After flashing the rom via twrp everything was okay except i was facing the baseband problem and also the battery was always showing 100%. So i tried to flash the baseband ftf file. But after i flashed the ftf and rebooted using flashtool, my mob is not switching on. When i press the power button, the device is vibrating, but not even the sony logo is showing. I tried charging it for 10+ hours, but nothing improved. I am unable to find what may be wrong. Please if possible suggest some possible solution . Thanks in advance.

Can you enter flashmode or fastboot mode?
This prob usually arises when you flash an incompatible kernel. It fails to start.

To charge your phone follow these steps dude !
1. Pull out your battery first !
2. Plug-in charger now to the phone without battery inserted.
3. Now you'll see an LED glowing which is usually used while normal charging.
4. Insert your battery while pressing the back button and make sure the charger is connected with the phone while doing this process.
5. Now your phone will be charging. Have a nice day ! cheers...

I already tried that too, but still not working.
Not sure, but try this. Take out the battery, and hold the power button for ~5 seconds. Connect the phone to a PC. Flash the stock FTF. When it asks to press the back button, insert the battery (without removing the microUSB). The flash will begin. After the flash is complete, let the phone be for about half an hour, then remove the cable and turn it on.

Hi
I had this same problem a while ago, I am sorry to say your phone is bricked BUT FIXABLE
1. Take battery out of the phone.
2. Install all drivers needed.
3. Download Sony Update Service (Google it).
4.Open SUS and click Agree and next, select the Xperia E and hit next.
5. Put the battery in.
6. Now as instructed by SUS plug in the USB cable to the PC while holding the volume down key.
7. If you have done everything correctly, update service should detect your phone.
8. Click Install and follow instructions on screen.

If this is the case then it is bricked. Take it to the store and if your under warranty get it fixed for free. If not your only choice is to pay to get if fixed.

First of all !
I think you might have a battery issue too !
First charge your battery fully !
Incase it isn't charging follow these steps :
- Pull out battery
- Plug in the charger and start charging
- After the charging LED turns on, insert the battery while pressing the back button and during this don't stop charging.
- Congo, now you have your phone charging.
Now, make sure you have an unlocked bootloader of your Phone to try the flashing things and if you already have it unlocked then try relocking it with Flashtool and apply for warranty ! or you can still flash your original stock firmware with locked bootloader too or use Sony Update Service.
You can check out this thread for the Sony Xperia E Single stock firmware and guide to get back into stock :
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568176
Or if you want your bootloader unlocked and want to fix the phone then try flashing the stock firmware of your device.

Hmm. Do you still have warranty left? Reading this thread, and assuming you have tried everything, I see no other option that returning it to the shop(if you still have warranty). Sorry, man. Perhaps a smarter person than me could help, but I don't see any other solution. Sorry, man.

What exactly do you mean by repair?
Yes, it charges when it is switched off.
When I switch it on, it shows the boot image for 1000000000000 minutes. Basically, I can't get inside.
When I restore the phone from a backup I took last month, it works. So, I don't know what the problem is!
Thanks for the reply.
Should I flash the stock kernel back? I am scared of even switching off my phone because I think I can't put it back on.

Hey!
Recently, I installed Cyanogenmod 11 for my Xperia J but this ROM didn't work great for me as SIM and Camera are the most essentials of the phone and they were not working.
So I decided to revert to my stock android firmware. I downloaded the firmware and flashed it by using Xperia flash tool.
But now (after successful flashing) when I press the power button, a red light on the phone flashes 3 to 4 times and then it goes off and nothing comes up on the screen. And when I put my phone on charging, it just turns up the green light which is known for flashmode.
Please help. I couldn't find the thread related to mine so I posted the new thread. And sorry for my English.
