Hi guys =D
So... I'm having some problems when I try to update my Xperia L.
I downloaded Pc Companion, I connected my phone via USB. When it says to unplug my phone, turn it off and then plug it again while pressing volume down key, nothing happens. It flashes 2 times in two different colors. One is red and the other one is green.
Can you help me?
Here is your answer when it give you a prompt.
Switch off your phone.
Connect the usb to the computer
now press and hold the volume down bbutton even if your phone is switched off
Now connect the end of the usb to your phone you will see a green or a red light and wait for a few seconds for the drivers to be installed and then it will start to upate your phone.
wait for he process to end.

Thank you for replying. I guess I was very clear.
Before it asks me to unplug it, my phone switches itself off. So when I connect it and hold volume down key, two lights flash (a green and a red one) and nothing happens. =/
My device is D6603, already rooted in kitkat using giefroot, locked bootloader, "Z3-lockeddualrecovery2.8.15" installed.
I flashed the " D6603_23.1.A.1.28_Customized_NCB" firmware as "[D66XX]{5.0.2} Flashable stock Lollipop pre-rooted collection & XZ dualrecovery" post instruct, after that, the device restart, and I enjoyed lollipop for just a few minutes, after I open the Setting, the device first become no response, then screen is off, led off(even plug into adapter), no response no matter how hard i tried to press the power button, with vol+/- pressed together, no response at all!!
After one night leave it alone, i tried again, no response at all ,however, when i plugged into adapter, the led light became red, then after a while, it began to blink in red.
Please help me, what should i do with this condition?

You should reinstall your firmware using Sony PC companion. Download it and it will give you instructions how to repair your phone. Make sure you have all the necessary drivers installed. this is official and simple method to repair your phone
Secondly , you can alternatively use FLASHTOOL.

my phone is still bricked. when using flashtool in flashmode, connected to the PC, it repeats the following message:
INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
INFO - Device disconnected
Device connected with USB debugging off
For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
INFO - Device disconnected
and the led light is red on, then off, then on ....
if i try to connect it to the power adapter, the led light is red with fast blink. And I try to use another power adapter (iphone's ), the red light is on, continuously for about 20 minutes, then off, at this time ,if i try to reconnect to the power adapter, the led is still off. after try power button or vol+ button, then the led is back again , but with the same status.
is there anything I can do with my z3? I'm desperate...
thanks a lot !!

did you hold the Vol+ button when inserting the microusb? Also, the device must be completely off (power+vol+)

turn off your device.
Hold power+volume up button and then connect your device via a USB. If however, the device disconnects, you should keep holding the power button and do not leave it.
Lastly, upgrade your drivers from flashtool folder!
Good Luck

you mean inserting the microusb connected with power adapter using vol+button? I tried ,but the led light still fast blinking in red.
I thought maybe the fast blinking means the phone cannot charge in.

Do this , Make sure you load all the files in flashtool and it is waiting for the device.
When it is waiting to flash, hold down power+volume key and connect it. Connecting before means, you will have to hold it for a long time
If it doesnot work, your drivers are outdated which as i suggested upgrade from flashtool folder

no;
when NOT connected: press power + vol+. After that you get two vibrations from the device, this means the device is off.
after that, hold ONLY vol+, and connect it to your PC, with Flashtool waiting for the device using flashmode.
the device will never vibrate, no response at all!
I went to customer service yesterday, they said my device is completely no response to any test and need to change the mainboard....how could a basically flash(just flash 5.0.1 with bootloader never unlocked) will result in such a disaster?! I cannot understand!!
My volume and on/off button are broken and not responding. Cant turn my device on. First my on/off button was broken so i had to turn it on/reboot into system holding volume up key and then connect the usb cable on the computer and i entered flashmode and used flashtool and reboot to system. But now the volume key is also broken and not responding. so now i cant turn it on through flashmode/flashtool no more. All i can do is charge battery. So the device does turn on. But only charching mode. Also USB debugging is turned off. So ADB wont work either. How to reboot into system?
Solved.
Here's how for future reference if someone encounters a similar issue.
1. Disconnect battery and reconnect it
2. Download and install Xperia Companion Tool from Sony (tested on Mac, but the Windows version should work as well)
3. Choose Repair Software/Xperia on the Companion tool
4. Connect phone to computer using a USB cable
5. Disconnect phone when the Xperia splashscreen appears.
Done.
Does not work for xperia xz premium or am I doing something wrong ? using windows version of Xperia companion tool, reconnect battery, click on "software repair" , connect phone , disconnect but does not boot system
the problem is from on off flex cable. it is hardware problem. not software.
just change the that cable it will fix onoff switch and valume buttons and fix ui restarting.
I change flex and buttons but didn't work, after disassembly I noticed that flex connector on mother board is broken , it is caused by the too long flex cable that strain this connector. Original parts. They are idiots or its just maketing.
fastboot reboot (cmd / adb cmd tools)
