Hi! My name is Petar and i new here at xda-developers. First of all I am not a developer and I do not have knowledge as much as you guys. I am here to ask for help. I have very very very BIG problem with my phone. It is Sony Xperia Miro. The phone is not expensive, but it is very very important to me. The phone was working perfectly untill i flashed cyanogen mod 10 JB mesina (i found mesina is the name for xperia miro). I know that Miro doesnt support JB officialy, but i found a video on You-Tube about un-official JB on Xperia Miro. Here is what i did:
-Rooted and unlocked bootloader using UnLock Root program (I verified the root with RootChecker app).
-Installed Clockwork mode.
-made a backup (nandroid).
-delete and wipe all data with clockwork.
-flash new rom ( Cyanogen mod 10 JB Mesina).
-after flashing completed 100%, the phone turned off ( the phone was fully 100% charged before doing all this).
-I tried to turn on the phone but i only get a single vibration (No led, No screen working, No sound).
-I tried to connect the phone to PC and restore original ICS using Sony PC Companion, but my PC doesnt detect my phone because unlocked bootloader.
-So i put the phone on charge for 6 days.
-Yesterday i took the phone off the charge and pushed it on. The phone didnt turn on, but i didnt even get a vibration only now i get is blinking RED LIGHT at top of the phone.
-I contacted you !
I read thousands of posts here on xda and everywhere on Google about fixing this. But I only found tutorials and fixes for other Xperias ( Z, S, J etc.), but not for my cheap miro ... Please guys i need to fix my phone really soon, please in name of the LORD , help me.. Thank you ):
you downloaded mesona cm10 zip file right? there is one boot.img file inside it, try to flash it first(using flashtool..search how to)
put cm10 for mesona on your sd card and after flashing boot.img go to recovery and flash the rom.
in case your pc does not detect your phone you should try on some other pc.
red led means your phone is not dead yet.
please step by step

Guys , I was on Jelly Sandwich with sirikay's kernel. I had some speed problems with wifi. So I thought of flashing stock ICS Rom ST18i_4.1.B.0.587_Kernel.ftf using uniflash.exe and did it. After flashing it didnt restart. So I clicked the power button to restart manually but just got a vibration sound and nothing else .. just the blank screen. So I searched for stuff about unbricking my device since I thought it's bricked. I downloaded this package "FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick.exe" and started flashing the firmwares. So I held down my volumedown button and connected it to the usb port. It says error and that I have to select usb debugging mode and connect again but I can't even start my mobile.
Plz help .. Thanks in Advance
Try using flash tool!
and flash stock ftf through that.....

Hi
I confirm, just had the same problem while updating a custom ROM.
Get the Stock ftf file for your phone/model then use Flashtool to flash it.
Search the forum for the proper links there are likely to be all there somewhere
Hopefully, your phone will be back to life on a stock version.
And yes, if you want to re-install a custom ROM you need to re-do all the process: root, (optional) unlock Bootloader etc.
Good luck.
PS: I saw a thread saying to use the SEUS to restore the phone to stock. Worth a try but for me it didn't work since SEUS was telling my phone already had the latest version. Fix hard bricked ray

Try flashing the stock rom, it worked for me!!!!!!
the same thing hapenned to me too
Okay so I seem to have soft bricked my Xperia J too
Only this time I can't seem to get into Flash mode or Recovery mode!
Holding/Pressing Vol+ doesn't bring up the blue LED and the phone doesn't vibrate at all.
Likewise for Vol+. Nothing happens and the phone remains stuck on the Sony boot logo.
Any idea what I could do? (USB isn't recognised on PC either so I can't connect that way.)
Edit: Okay scratch that, randomly button mashing Volume DOWN seemed to work for me. Only took about 50 or so reboots
Sony`s PC Companion can repair Boot Up problems after CWM install faild
Just watch this video on youtube and follow exactly the description on your PC Companion. Just search for this video on youtube "How to fix a (soft) bricked Sony Xperia Play( any Xperia )EASY METHOD, when stuck on the Sony logo"
Wanted to post the Link but it`s not allowed before posted at last ten contributions - sorry for that (XDA rules!)
This will fix all Xperia Models - it works so easy and pretty fast (about 20 minutes) and after that you have a phone just like brand new from the dealer with the latest software rolled out for your device in your country - sweet
Pls help me S1 fastboot prblm

Hello since i decided to help a friend, everything got bad and I don't know why :/
Before this Tipo I rooted/unlocked Boot-loader and changed the ROM of Wildfire S, Nexus One (cyanogen ones).
Today I started to Make this "Tipo" for a friend and that's why is so important for me the phone to work its not mine ( I usually don't make my life so complicated to make someone's phone, why i did it this time).
So It was with official ROM Unrooted and with Locked Boot-loader and I checked it if its possible to
Unlock the boot-loader It was saying Yes.
I Unlocked the Boot-loader following the instructions with "Unlock SE xperia Boot-loaders 1.6" with no problem,
I know because the phone was Reset after the finish.
After that i was able to Root the phone and I had SU privileges already in the phone and
I started to put CWM.
I first Trued with RecoverX I did everything instaling Sony Pc Companion, usb debugging ,unknown sources, busy box installed(SU privilegies) and RecoverX writed me that its installed successfully.
I try to start CWM after the reboot it was not working, I try about 10 times more, it was not working so I searched another way and i found this -
For Tipo and tipo dual users-cwm_tipo_v6.zip for cwm.For TWRP-TWRP_tipo.zip
1 Unzip It using winrar or 7zip.
2 Connect you phone in usb debugging mode to pc
3 Windows users double click on install.bat.
4 Linux users use terminal to run install.sh.
It worked from the first time!
After that I put this ROM and Gapps on the SD Card
[MIRO/TIPO/J][ROM][4.1.2] Jelly Bean Mini Project Release 5
And I Went into Recovery and I Did this
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Wipe Cache Patriotion
Advance Wipe Dalvic Cache
Install from SD Card and i find the zip archive of the ROM and the Gapps (from the ROM's directory)
I installed first the ROM after that Gapps (from Install from SD)
After that I went to Reboot System Now
(I usually don't make backup I didn't do it this time too but anyway it wont help I think in this case)
I waited the new ROM to load 10-15 Mins and I saw nothing is happening so I google the ROM and
I reeded that the ROM has sometimes that loop which is just loading for hours and nothing is happening (first boot)
So i took the battery off and I trued to go into Recovery, Sadly the recovery is gone ;(
I trued around 20 times to enter recovery with no success
And now I don't know if I'm able to do something ;( No Recovery No ROM The ROM is already above 1 hour loading
Please somebody to help me with something, or at least to tell me its no point there is nothing I can do
and to look how to buy a new phone for my friend
Try SEUS...!

Download stock ftf and flash it with Flashtool. Search for tut on how to.

you should download stock kernel, maybe the one from matej. and flash back to stock kernel after using the cwm as xperia j JB has no permanent cwm yet

first I want you to go through this guide :Using Flashtool,
then 2. install the drivers for your xperia j as mentioned in the above guide.
3. if your bootloader is unlocked then try to flash this stock kernel if you were running jelly bean 11.2.A.0.31 : stock kernel by connecting your device in fastboot mode.
if your bootloader is locked then download this stock firmware : 11.2.A.0.31 by connecting your device in flashmode
then Flash this downloaded firmware as mentioned in the above guide.
4.Wait untill flashing completes. start your device when you are told to do so.
Good luck
I have an Sony xperia e3 d2212 running stock recovery n ROM 4.4.2 also stock
I rooted my phone using kingoroot.apk n switched to SuperSU using supersume pro.apk
I have no PC access so I still have a locked boot loader
Today I found a link to an app named EZ unlock.apk which said it could unlock my boot loader I installed hit unlocks asked me if I wanted to unlock my boot loader I hit yes n a msg saying boot loader unlocked piped up in seconds
Den I took cwm for my phone from XDA n tried updating my recovery using mobile unclemtk tools n wen I selected the recovery.IMG it got switched off n hasn't turned on yet led notification is also not working
I tried connecting to a PC it don't recognize my device
My mistake was the cwm was for Sony xperi e3 d2212 running stock 4.4.4
I flashd it on my 4.4.2 that must have caused the bricking plZz help me it isn't even booting in fastboot
Since my phone got bricks I'm pretty sure that app must have unlocks my boot loader other wise it would have booted normally as I tried flashing the same cwm b4 using the same tool
PlZz help me
Thanks in advance
Hope ugot a clear picture of my problem
First, everyone who wants to help you would appreciate some appropriate use of the English language. You don't have to be fluent or anything, at least just write properly.
Secondly, I would recommend trying first the Sony PC Companion to restore everything, if it doesn't work, try using the flashtool with XperiFirm to download the appropriate software and flash it. Here is guide on using XperiFirm
pc isnt recognising
