Hi,
I don't know what can I do now, perhaps noting. I accidentialy flashed wrong bootloader (from other xperia, not Miro). Now phone seems to be completly bricked, I can't turn it on and my PC does not see any new device after connecting phone to usb. I also tried to remove and insert battery, after this when trying to power on, there is short vibration and nothing more.
Do you have any ideas? Or I simply should to use it as brick, not as phone or put it to my toilet and wash? Thanks.
Can you get in flashmode? Power button down + connect to pc. Flash proper ftf for your phone.

Don't worry, Your phone is not hard bricked. As you mentioned that on starting , phone is vibrating that means there are chances to recover your phone.
1.First go through this guide :Using Flashtool for Xperia devices
2.Download your current stock firmware . Visit this: Miro all official firmwares
3.Install proper drivers as mentioned in the above 1.flashtool guide.
4.Flash the firmware for your phone , according to the above 1. Flastool guide.
5.Wait untill flashing completes. start your device when you are told to do so.
Good luck :good:

It seems I can't. I already tried this, but nothing happens. As far as I know, there should be blue led after connect. But nothing happens and PC can't see any new device.

You should see green light. Try this :
Pull out battery, hold power button for 10 seconds without battery. Reinstall battery, hold volume button - and connect to usb. Then follow steps that prateek.invasion gave you.
The point is you can flash ftf and restore your phone.
Good luck.

Thanks, I will try. Batteery is not charging, so I need to do this quick, it was not fully charged.
Unfortunatly, I can't do anything. I tried to connect while Volume down + power pressed. But nothing happens, only led flashing with red color. PC can't see any new device after I connect to usb.
Any ideas?

I had the same issue with my xperia e after I unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM, the phone just rebooted itself at boot up. If you have installed CWM I suggest you to install a custom rom and a new kernel. That worked for me . Or ofc, if you have warranty you can send it to them. They won't be able to tell if you installed another rom since the pc doesn't recognize the phone.
I don't have cwm... trying to connect to computer with volume down pressed. After this led starts flashing red and computer can't see any device connected
Seems there is no any recovery or I can't put it to recovery mode.

2. Now launch Sony Update Service and select Xperia C in the list and then press Next.
3. Hold the Volume Up button and plugin microusbcable while doing so, if that doesn't work for you, hold power + volume up and plugin the microusbcable while doing. Keep holding button combination for a few seconds and wait for a green light on your phone, if it appears check on
your PC so that it's detected.
4. Wait while the firmware is being downloaded and reinstalled on your phone and enjoy your working device!
Have tried this on my bricked xperia c red led

Then try this and share results

I flashed a faulty recovery using mobileuncles and there was no signs of life other than a red led liggt, and holding power + volume up works just fine and it went into flashmode.
I have the same issue.
I organized xperia light rom for our xperia c, I flashed it from custom recovery. Phone is completely dead now.
There is a just red light, phone does not go into download or fastboot mode. Pc Companion, Sony Update Center, Wmshua Flashtool do not recognize the phone.
Any suggestion with that?
I don't have warranty, my last option is to pay money for technical service.
this worked for me but instead of POWER+VOL UP i used POWER+VOL DOWN
thanks
thank, i like this forum
worth to try... (hope it won't happen to me :laugh: )
I have experienced this too, however, instead of using the Sony Update Service, I used the Sony PC Companion. At first it was not working, so I did a hard reset on the phone (press the button at the back). I held the power+up button while inserting the cable, and finally it was detected by Sony. It will reset your device to factory settings though.

If you flash a different device's rom, it happens. If you replace your motherboard, it will work again.

It worked for my Xperia M (rooted on JB 4.3) with a locked bootloader which was STUCK on bootloop screen and when I did the whole thing with holding the power and volume up button (after I let the battery die after so many bootloops it did), FINALLY I was able to take it to flashmode, while I had selected from Sony PC Companion to repair my phone, and after 3-4 tries, I DID IT!!! Thank you so much for this thread ( I DEFINITELY pressed the "thanks" button), it really SAVED ME time and money (because I was planning to send it to Sony to fix it and you ALL know how bastards Sony is)!!!! And to all those of you who are DESPERATE to fix their phone (I hope you read this thread), DON'T PANIC, and DON'T GIVE UP!!! It took me 2 days of searching the web, and FINALLY I MADE IT!!! There are ALWAYS solutions to these kinds of problems!!!!

no all you need stock kernel
you can either google it or download ftf and check all except kernel
done
Using CM12 Lollipop ROM and Thunderzap 4.7 kernel. I want to return to stock ROM, so I tried flashing it via both Sony PC Companion repair and Flashtool. However, no matter whether I press Vol Up or Vol Down during the boot, it always enters Recovery. Any way I could access Flashmode? Or am I missing some step I should do before attempting to flash?
1st you have to read document about flashing properly. Read twice. You must not start phone after switch off it. Just start flashtool on PC. And you have to press volume down button and insert USB cable simultaneously. Don't switch on your phone. It will led your phone into flash mode. Green light will blink once in notification light area.

Stuck on flalshmode
Hi,
I want to falsh stock rom on my Xperia L (Unlocked bootloader)
But while using flashtool I am stuck on flashmode. I tried removing phone holding vol down button and then connected to PC but flashtool is still showing the same window of connecting in flashmode
I have installed the ADB drivers correctly. dont know what to do next
When Flashtool asks to connect your device, be sure that you phone is powered off (for at least 30 seconds) then press Volume down and connect the USB cable. Release Volume button when Flashtool starts to work.

its a drivers issue u dont need the adb drivers but you need flashtool drivers so navigate to flashtool folder (c:/flashtool)

if after installing the drivers still the same problem try another usb cable/port

Hi. My device is hardbricked. I see no lights while charging. Flashtool doesn't see my device.how can i fix this?
Edit:Easily fixed it.I plugged my device into the computer.I entered platform-tools and flashed boot.img.I saw "waiting for device" And i pressed volume up and power buttons. Suddenly boot flashed and i recovered my phone
You are very unlikely to have hard bricked it unless you have unlocked the boot and flashed something wrong.
If you did this please help us help you by telling us what you did just before this happened.
Also, just leave the phone on charge (Wall charger) for 24 hours and then see what happens.
In the mean time read this
solution for no LEDs no response no fastboot devices.
Take two rubberbands one to hold down the power button and one to hold down the volume up button on Xperia Z3 dual. I spent a lot of time figuring this out. Alter a few minutes the phone just booted up from the dead. It worked for me 3 times. Now if someone can tell me how to fix the fastboot remote command not allowed error I'll be happy.

Hello
I had the same problem with REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED till i managed to solve it.
1st thing you need to clean that ANDROID folder you made on C: drive.Install all from the begining including flashtool.Boot windows to install unsigned drivers.In the flash tool folder youll find the driver downloader,just enable usb debugging and choose Mass Storage not MTP .; You have 4 options usb debug on/off and usb connectivity MTP or Mas Storage ;with every version selected connect and disconnect from pc with flashtool running.
When you use Fastboot start the flashtool and close it if it cant kill ADB (that assuming you succeeded in installing drivers).
Good Luck

Try a different driver package from another download source and use another usb on your pc.
Maybe it works. If your device can enter flash mode it definitely can be recovered.

The green led indicates flash mode so the problem is probably on your PC not detecting it properly. Does it show up in the system manager of windows if you plug it in at all? (Like a new device/android with a yellow triangle)
You could also try to fastboot a recovery and flashing a ROM from there. Not sure if it works but that's what I would try.
i m not even able to fastboot a recovery ...tried twrp and cwm both of them...
Me too
in my phone after charging 24h, only the red LED blinks, this is not normal any suggestions?
--------------edit
ok another week and still nothing
maybe I'll describe the problem:
I wanted to upload clean soft 5.1.1 and flash it
after the phone turned off it's start in recovery i used zip with SU and the phone turned off with no respond i try too reset (vol- + vol+ + power) but no reaction
there were no three vib
so I found that you have to reset the button under the sd flip
after this treatment you already know the charging of 3 days and only the red LED blinks
So any suggestions??

I‘m having the same problem, I can’t open my Xperia Z3. I tried with holding on/off button, holding volume up and on/off button, holding volume down and on/off button. When I connect it to PC, nothings happen. No vibrates, no led on, no screen on. What should I do?

Like you I have a Xperia Z3 mines the 6633 variant.. Signs were showing it to be hard bricked, for example:
No led charge indication!
No power led!
No fastboot leds!
No USB detection sound when plugging into windows.
Literally a Z3 that was essentially a glass brick I bought off ebay for £6.50 GBP for spares/repair.
Since I had a bricked device, I had nothing to loose.
I applied heat to the rear glass with a hair drier & removed the panel, I removed the battery ribbon cable & plugged in via USB only to find the phone would show LEDs so put it on charge.
The Z3 now goes into flash mode, so then re-flashed a stock ROM from flashtool. I did a apps log & user data wipe, cust reset & fota reset.
To date I have no idea why the phone would not take a charge before or even detect via USB, though Id say give this method a go, you may be surprised!!
Good luck
Hi, I'm having a problem with Flashtool... It never happened before. Everything is installed correct, drivers too. I download the Russian Firmware and when i Try to flash it... I connect the phone press the down botton and plug the device, and that's where the problem start, my phone won't switch on, flashtool turn my phone off and I can't switch back on... I already tried to re-install the flashtool, delet files, re-install drivers... but nothing. I already tried in a different computer, same problem.
Please help !

Try to flash a different ROM, you're safest with Central europe ROM. If your phone is detected by flashtool, then it's probably not a big problem. And download the ROM from XperiaFirn.

Yes... Flashtool detect my phone when it's turned on... When need to switch off and plug holding the down button, I don't know what happens, brick my phone and it don't turn on anymore .... after hours the phone asks for battery and i can switch on by chargin, and it's not a baterry problem.
I don't quite understand what you're doing but just to be sure when the ftf is loaded before plugging the phone hold power+vol up until it vibrates 3 times. Then hold vol down and plug the phone and you should see the led blinking green (one time).

I don't know how to explain that. When flashtool shows the pop up message asking for hold how the vol button and plug the device, the pop up does not fades away and my phones got bricked and does not switch on.
Hello!
I'm having a problem with keeping my device in flashmode, it just doesn't remain in flashmode! After like one minute and few seconds, the green LED turns red then the screen turns on and the device boots up normally.. I have the semi-latest flashtool (0.9.23.0), USB debugging, unknown sources are both on. Drivers are all installed from flashtool, Windows and the PC companion app. I tried to change the cable and USB port as other people said in few threads, didn't work! Installing the drivers didn't help as well. It just doesn't stay in flashmode, fastboot mode works fine, I haven't tried flashing an FTF file yet because if it boots up during the flashing process, it'll possible brick itself. And I'm using a Windows 7 PC and my phone is running 6.0.1, Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!
It won't boot during flashing process because flashtool will flash a new ftf and won't let it boot until it finish it's work.
Just turn off the device, wait 10 secondes, maintain vol - and plug it to the computer while maintaining.
It should turn green and let it flash.
I guess when you put it to flashmode, the phone reboots to normal because it detect nothing special
But when pluged on flashmode while using flashtool , flashtool will take over you and the phone will detect something so it will lock itself to flashmode until the end of the process
Don't try it just yet, wait for another confirmation but I think it's fine

Thanks for your reply, this issue has been er occurred when I had an Xperia Z so it's pretty weird to see to me! And I'll wait for more info of course, it'd be horrible to get the device bricked without possibility of staying in flashmode!
Seems pretty weird indeed, I had a Z and now a Z5 both rooted by myself and never encountered this kind of trouble
Wait another confirmation this is wiser than rushing and brick your phone
