First of all, sorry if thread is in a wrong place.
I have very unusual problem with Sony Xperia Miro, as for now no one could help me.
My friend had this phone first.
He said it started crashing randomly, then ram dump happened. He found some new phone so he left Miro in a drawer for few months (this might be somewhat important). After that time he gave it to me. Now it doesn't even turn on, when I charge it Led Light doesn't even flash red/orange/green (Note: it flashed red for a brief moment once), when I plug it into PC, computer can't, see the device,though Flashtool detects it, but can't interact with it.
Battery was checked with electric meter and it says it's charged half full, so it should work.
So basically phone is dead, but its unlikely a physical condition since it's in great condition and also it happened with Software issues.
If anyone had a slightest idea what could it be, please help.

Hello, I bought a Z2 back in November, but it completely stopped working after 6 weeks. No customs ROMs, no root access, nothing. It started lagging, so I was going to restart and it just wouldn't turn on (I turned it off at 32% battery). I plugged it in, and no charging light o anything. I was away from my house for the weekend, so when I got back home I tried seeing if I could fix the issue. Luckily, I still had my old LG Optimus G Pro (that i'm still using). I bought the phone new (sealed in factory packaging) from eBay (never buy from seller "never-msrp") and their return policy is 28 days. They woudn't take it back, and after calling whoever I could to get my money back ($439.99) the bank finally gave it back (they might not let me keep it, I had to send a letter explaining what happened. Still waiting to hear back). So, 2 months after it stopped working, I'm stuck with a broken Z2. To explain what it does: at first, nothing. No lights, vibrations, nothing. Now, if I plug it in, the red light comes on, but if i unplug, it still does nothing. When plugged in, the phone will have a red light, but if I push the power button, it starts to blink very slowly. Like on for a few seconds, off for a few seconds. Different combinations of power and volume keys yield the same result. Pushing the red reset button when plugged in makes the phone vibrate 3 times, and nothing else. not a thing. Pushing it while unplugged does nothing. The computer does not recognize the phone, and the PC Companion won't install correctly (I get an error saying the program did not install properly). So at this point, I don't care what I do with it, I just want to make it run something. Android, Windows, I don't care what. Is there any way I can get this phone to boot up into any OS or is my poor phone done for good?
PS: I called Sony and asked if I could get a replacement, but when I provided my IMEI, they said my phone was from Hong Kong, was never meant to be sold (whatever that means), and has no warranty. So that's no use.

[Q] bricked xperia z2

Good luck
So I was hanging out on my phone one day and it started freezing, I had this ROM for about 2 months and my phone shut down as it always used to do. Problem I was never able to power it back on. I've been to different mobile services but no-one could help me. The only life sign my phone gives is when I plug it in the LED light shows as it was mid-charge like a yellow-green light. Other than that, no vibration ever, the computer never recognizes it and only makes sounds randomly when I plug it in. I was hoping it wasn't a hard brick since it happened long after I installed the ROM and it happened all of a sudden like that. Please share your knowledge with me if you have something I can know it would help so I can stop trying.
Been using the Xperia Z5 (E6653 Rev 4) from Bell over the last month with mostly no issues (expect the phone freezing once). However, the phone just went completely dead.
I had about 70% battery, was playing a game and had Chrome open. I looked up a video on youtube because my sister asked about it. I was just about done so I just pressed the multitask button to close all the apps (just those 3).
After they were all closed, suddenly the phone froze, . Phone did not respond to any button press. About 30 seconds later the screen turned off by itself. Still no response. I figured I would do the force shut down by pressing and holding the off button beside the SIM card. After a few seconds of holding it down, the phone vibrated 3 times. I figured it was off so I tried to restart it, but no response again from the buttons. LED light also does not come on when I plug it in nor does my computer recognize the phone.
Is the phone dead and I should take it back to Bell? Or am I missing some kind of weird button combination or something in order start the phone again? If someone knows something please let me know. Thanks.
Try again the buttons & use the USB wallcharger to power it on.

tried all the buttons with the USB plugged in. still no response.
I also tried leaving the USB plugged in for a while. I can't say I know how electronics work in situations like these... but I don't think it's even charging the battery since the phone still feels really cool to the touch.

Strange,
Then you should use SEUS / PC Compagnion to repair your phone.
If that won't work, go back to the shop.\
Good Luck
Unfortunately, the computer doesn't recognize the phone. It says "one of the USB devices has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
I figured it was dead and I had to take it back to the store. I will give them a call to see if they are open today.
Very ironic since earlier in the day I was just thinking about how happy I was with the Z5 and then this happens without warning.
You try pressing volume up while pressing power?
yes I did. I tried and held it for 20 seconds as I read somewhere. then I tried Volume Down too... I don't know if I should have done that first, as I attempted the Off button method right away because that is what I saw on the Sony website.
I phoned Bell, and they also told me to do the Volume Up+Power. I told them it didn't work and they said they will need to send it in for repair.
edit: the guy at the Bell store says the phone is most likely fried, so it needs to be sent in for repair. I am the unlucky first, apparently. Though he says it was pretty common for other Xperia devices.
That sucks. I don't mess with the hard reset button, ever.
"Pretty common on other xperia devices? " I think he's messing with you. I have had alot of xperia devices and not a single one was fried before. On the other hand, my friends lg g3 and some galaxy phones fried before.
Me too,
never had problems with my SE or Sony Xperia 's.
Had a K700i, X10i, Arc (Great slim smartphone), Xperia T, Z1 and now Z5.
The best smartphones imho, only miss one thing.. Easy Rooting on LB

I know there is a lot of post and solution of the "sudden death" for the Z3 but none of them has worked for me so far. I've tried anything (except opening the phone), pressed any buttons for any given time but the phone won't turn on. Even the light doesn't turn on. I also bought a Sony dock to charge it hoping that the micro USB port was broken but even after letting it in charge for a night, nothing happens.
I've also done all the steps from the Sony official website even installing the Xperia Companion but obviously it doesn't detect the phone...
Is there anyone that can help here ?
Thanks
How did you solve the problem?
My phone is still dead. I'm not able to turn it on. I just replaced the old battery with a new one without improvement .... :/
