[Q] Hard Bricked Xperia Tipo

I was installing a WALKMAN Mod while my phone is Low Battery (About 14%), while the mod installing a wipe my sweat using my phone in the edges(LOL ), after a minutes my phone turned off but i did i not see it turning off, after i turned it on it was nothing, the power button part was actually hot, after i inserted a new sim and waited for an hour, my phone vibrated but nothing showed up i removed the battery and boot it again but there was no vibration. After a couple of hours i asked Brother (Previous Owner and Experienced the Problem)if he still knows how to fix it, he said just throw your phone down but not pretty far, i did what he said and i turned on my phone and a red LED light showed up 3 times (indicates its low battery), and the connected to the loptop to restore to stock but the loptop can't recognize the phone and the phone still isn't showing up. :crying:
Thanks and in Advance to those who helped me :laugh:

Xiaomi MI4 does not turn, only gets red LED.

Hello everyone. Xiaomi MI4 bought a black 64gb in aliexpress, so I opened the box I turn on the unit, realized he was discharged, then I put it to load, but only rises a red LED at the bottom and all, the machine shows no sign of life, let charge for 24 hours and he does not care, just gets the red LED, someone could help me?

Does your pc detect anything when you plug usb cable ?

Yes, it detects, but then disconnects, can it be a problem in the battery?

Chances are you have received a refurbished device or defective battery.
Try and find another Mi4 user for trial of the battery or let's see you need to contact the vendor soon.

Charge via wall adapter. Leave it for some time.
PS: When your battery reaches 9-10%, it is advisable to charge it back to 100%.

I just got this issue 10min ago. Havn't depleted the battery on the phone for a very long time, my guess is that it hasn't calibrated the battery in a while or something like that. Will keep it in the fast charger during the night and then i'll reply here.
EDIT: Normally the red LED is constantly on when the battery is low and it's in the charger, now it's flashing which makes it look a bit more scary.
EDIT2: Works fine now after a night of charging

Charger could be not pushing enough voltage to charge battery. Try another one to see if it remedies the issue.

I do have the same problem with my Mi4. I wanted to start the update in the Updater app (to Android 6 version of Xiaomi.eu) and suddenly it turned off (at 100% battery). When I connect my phone with my computer it is recognized and all the partitions are mounted. And with all I mean all. There are about 7 partitions mounted (Linux and Windows) and they keep being mounted until I disconnect the phone. I let my Mi4 on the wall charger for 24 hours (2A Samsung one which charges all my other devices without any problems) but I still have the blinking red light after connecting it to the charger. Any other things I can do to get it running again?
EDIT: I can't see the phone in fastboot or adb and when I keep the power button pressed for about 10s it seems to disconnect and instantly reconnect the phone.

I solved this problem on my own. Even though the phone doesn't show up on the fastboot devices list you can use the Mi Flash Tool to flash the fastboot update (http://xiaomiadvices.com/miui-7-flash-fastboot-rom-on-xiaomi-phones-using-mi-flash-tool/). The drivers installed with the Mi Flash Tool for the Windows 10 Mobile Release (http://en.miui.com/thread-189369-1-1.html) recognize all the partitions as one device and show it with a cryptical name in the flash list.

Hi ! I fully charged the phone and after it shuted down. It doesn't starts. PC doesn't see it. When I'm plugin the wire just half way into the phone the red light stays on for a few seconds and than nothing at all. Can anyone help me?

Push power+vol up for quite enough lets say 20 sec

same problem here i kept charging for whole night but phone not getting on.. only red LED comes when kept for charging and not detected in PC also. Can any 1 help on this

I had the same problem ( strangely,it occured after a whole night charging, f... knows what happened)
Tried to change charger. No luck. The phone won't even boot by pushing Vol down+ Power
Solution: I simply connected the phone to a portable external charger, and tadaaaa !!! it was brought back to life !
Hope this helps

No response or any indication from my Z5 after a black screen

Here is what happened. I was playing Crashlands when I noticed that my battery is at 3%. So ran to get my Quick charger to get some power fast. After connecting it, I tried to unlock the screen and it went black after a second. So I was thinking that it just shutdown because of low battery. I pressed the power button and noting happens, just the red light showing it was charging. Then I tried soft restart (power + volume up) and it vibrated 3 time and probably shutdown. From that point noting I did started the phone. Even using the off button next to the Sim tray. When I connected it to my PC is ether recognized as Unknown USB device or SOMC Flash Device. I should probably mention that the phone was hot from the game before connected it the charger.
I had the phone for one year and a bit. It is not rooted and i just recently installed the lattes update from Sony. Currently I have it put to charge, at least it looks like it is charging (gets little hot).
Is my phone bricked or something else? What should I do?

I have same problem like this.
Hope someone can help us.
QHSUSB_DLOAD device will show when Connected PC.You can use Flashtool to install the driver.
Unknown divices : because you should complete shut down the power (Disconnect the buttery ).
flash tool will find the phone ,but can't flash.
seems Z1 have a way that find the test point to recovery boot file.hope z5 have the same way.
Sorry for my Poooor English ,hope you can understand what i say and have someone Help US.

fastboot and recovery are ok
does device switch off automatically in fastboot mode ?
I think problem is battery discharged completely and it is not charging

Phone dropped ≠ bricked, it seems more like phone dropped = phone damaged.

and I dropped mine from waist high twice, and its flipped mid-air high enough before thudded on concrete.... slipped thru my hand...
first time landed on screen-down - second time it landed on its back....
lucky there's no damage at all....

Hi,
I have the same problem, but the phone is charging normally...
Phone fell from about 30 cm (with screen to the floor) and turned off. Since then I'm unable to turn it on. I have mi logo, then mi logo with android sign, I feel a vibration and screen turns black. Buttons are flashing for about 10-20 seconds and phone turns off.
I'm unable to flash it with miflash (it's locked and even the global/chinese rom doesn't suit). I tried with wipe and chinese pc suite, but nothing helps.
Edit: OK, it was charging normally I think, but for now it's stuck on 59% and doesn't charge at all...

No, I don't have one. But my firmware doesn't support deep flashing anymore.

Hard brick
Hi,
After installing EU.Rom, my MI5s Plus turned into hard brick. Nothing works anymore. It does show in device manager, but that´s it. Also not noticed in MI Flash Tool.
In CMD (ADB and Fastboot) it says "device not attached". I have read about Deep Flash, but have no idea how to use this or where to buy it.
Can anyone help me out here? Thanks a lot.

Mi4c shows logo and powers off

Hi everyone,
I'm having a big problem on my Xiaomi MI4C; When I powered it on its shows the logo and immediately powers off. I don't of if it is a problem of software or something else. Note that a few months ago the phone fall down and the screen cracked and part of the screen was not working but I was able to use it. I also noticed a few days ago that the screen started flickering and the phone and the phone restarted when that happen. I ignored the problem as it happened rarely but now it only shows its logo and powers off. Can you please tell if it's the screen the problem or a software issue or even a battery problem. Please help me out because I need to repair the phone urgently. Contact me on [email protected]

Hi, here is a battery test:
- turn the phone off
- connect it to a quality 2A charger via a short (<1m), thick, quality USB cable
- turn it on (while still connected to the charger)
If your Mi4C starts OK now then the battery is 100% bad.
