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!!!!

[Q] JLo bricked

Hello.
I'm in a bit of a pickle. I installed slimbean on my friends Xperia J and it booted properly and everything. The only problem I had was that the IMEI was blank and the phone could not get the network established. Now I wish that was still the problem. It looks like the phone is totally bricked. I left it on over night and it was fully charged, but in the morning it was turned off. I tried turning it on, taking out the battery, but couldn't get it to turn on. I tried getting into fastboot mode, but to no avail.
When I press the fastboot button (volume down) and connect it, the windows doesn't recognize it and failes to install the drivers. After that, when I plug it in, I can hear the failed usb connect sound. And that is about it. Please guys, work your magic. Thanks.

Use flashtool and flash Stock ICS, To put your device in flashmode you hold the Volume + and plug the USB in, The LED Light should light up green, The reason your IMEI was gone and you have no network was because you must've flashed straight from Jellybean? The way to solve this is by flashing from ICS to your desired rom, Goodluck!

Thanks for your response, but the biggest problem is that I can't get into flashmode. Windows just makes a failed connect usb sound and that's it. And the device is listed in the device manager as unknown device.
But, really, thanks for the response.

Windows won't detect anything if you get into flashmode, try again, plug the usb and wait 0.001s and press "Volume +"button
[0.001 s means that do not press button and plug usb at the same time,but need fast action]

You said your battery was completely flat right, so what's happened is your phone doesn't have enough power to do anything, What you need to do is leave the phone on charge (Best to do it overnight) One you've done this Take your battery out for 5 minutes, After place your battery back in and use flash tool and Flash Stock ICS (If you want to flash to slimbean again) if not goa head and flash Stock JB, Your device should run normally

Hard Bricked T-Mobile Z3, Doesn't turn on at all

I have T-Mobile Z3 (D6616) that I rooted and flashed TWRP on with no issues. Today I tried to flash ZyxxOS on it. after wiping and installing I went to reboot. The phone only powered off and then no matter what I do will not power on. I've tried all the button combos, LED's don't flash, I used the little yellow button by the sim, nothing.
If there is anything I can add let me know and I'll try to help to the best of my abilities.
thanks, Nathan
EDIT: If anyone can help me to the point that the phone boots or is completely fixed, I'll buy you a 6 pack of beer (or soda if you're too young to drink)
EDIT2: I let the phone charge all night and now (still plugged in) the notification LED is glowing red

Try to boot into Fastboot mode by holding the volume up then plug in the usb into your phone, if it detects then use the sony tool to reflash your firmware and it should work. If fastboot doesnt detect then I don't know what else to say.

Yeah it doesn't respond to anything. I've tried loading into fastboot, even holding all the button combos for a whole minute.

So I left the phone on the (wall) charger all night and when I woke up the notification light was red. I hit volume down +power and the phone vibrated 3 times but nothing else happened. After that I tried connecting it to flash tool with a rubberband on the volume up botton. Flashtool's notification screen thing kept repeating "phone connected adb disabled" and then "device disconnected". I let it do that for about an hour before I took it off and put it back on the charger.
Should I still try and reset it by holding it for a few minutes? I read the softbrick thread linked above but i'm not sure what I should do or where my situation fits into that thread.
thanks, Nathan

Try this, open up flashtool and select your firmware, then click on the flash icon, after you clicked flash hold the volume down while connecting the usb cable and see if it the led changes from red to green/blue. Also what version of flashtool are you using? Maybe thats why its not detecting via the rubberband method. Also give this a go as well:
Recovery Mode:
Turn off the device
Press and hold Volume UP + Volume Down Key
then Press and hold Power key while pressing these keys
then press Camera key to enter Android System Recovery
Release all key when you see Android icon

If you plug in your charging cable and a red led is on that means it is powered off. So just try the button combination I have mentioned and hope it boots into stock recovery to try a factory reset.

I did the rubber band trick with the new flashtool, and the flashtool log just says,
device connected with USB debugging disabled
for 2011 devices line, make sure you are not in MTP mode
device disconnected
I get this over and over and it has been like this pretty much all day.
*EDIT: i held down power and volume down for a really long time this time and the led blinks red 3 times while I hold the buttons down.*

Darn, not much you can do since USB Debugging is disabled. Also is PC companion running the same time as Flashtool? That can conflict with it. If they are both running make sure to close PC companion and give it another go. Three red blinks means the battery is drained completely, but you said you charged it overnight. hmmmmm.....
EDIT: Leave it charging using original cable + wall charger for 10-30 minutes, after that unplug from wall charger with cable still intact then hold volume up and plug to PC and hope you see the Flashmode LED.

Help with Bricked Z3 6033

Hello, I need help with my Z3 with these symptoms:
-When plugging the USB to a PC, it won't show up. But it does pops a sound on the PC; the S1 Service appears on the device list. Dissapears when unplugged
-When plugged to a PC the phone flashes a red light for a moment, then a green one really fast before the led goes off again.
-If i hold the power button, the phone vibrates a bit. No screen or led are light give any signal.
-If I hold the vol- button plus the power up button, the screen goes up and Sony - XPERIA logo briefly. But it won't start at all and goes back to black.
-If the vol+ plus power buttons are holded together, the phone will vibrate 3 times.
It was working fine just before i tried to install ZyxxOS. I rooted it previously with Kingo ROOT. Then used the Z3-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26-RELEASE.combined. Used the Install.bat. On the dual recovery mode I installed the ZIP, when it looked like it was done I cleared the cache and followed the dialogs. Then a message poped up saying my device was not rooted and offered me to root it. After it the phone went black and the CMD looked like was doing nothing. I left it like that around 25 mins and then unplugged the USB. After I tried to start the phone it didn't worked anymore.
I'd be really glad if someone is able to help me :crying:

Seems like a drained battery and a system corrupted. Try holding the power down for 30 secs, to make sure the phone is turned off, then leave it charging for a while, and when I mean "a while" Im saying put it in charge and go to sleep. The next day the phone will be with full battery for sure, then, download and install FlashTool and install the drivers from the folder of the program after installed, then try the steps mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-stock-roms-t2240614
The tutorial is for the Xperia Z, but the steps are basically the same.
On the newer versions of flashtool, there is an new option to download the stock firmware from the program, wich is usefull if you dont know where to search, and more secure, since the z3 has many different models, make sure to download the correct firmware for the model of your phone, to know the model, just open the chip flap and you'll see a small piece of plastic above the sim slot, pull it and you'll see some information, look for the model, ex: "D6653"
answer if it works!
Wish you the best!

Looks like you're connected, but you don't have any FTF's downloaded. Download FTF for your model, put it in C:\users\Wong\.flashTool\firmwares.
Then while holding volume down button connect your phone to PC. If it says "Device connected in flashmode" you suceeded. Then click on lightning icon on flashtool select your FTF and flash it. Hope I helped.

@Wong17
You also need a unlocked bootloader to install ZyxxOS on your device.

Yep, seems that you only need to download the FTF for you phone, you can use XperiFirm option on the Flashtool to download the firmware for you model.
Then just do what Nojus said, connecto to the PC holding Volume down, the flashtool will recognize it, the led will light up and you're set to reflash your device again.
I think you tryied to flash the ZyxxOS without unlocking your bootloader, then you corrupt all your system and It went to a softbrick state.
Post the results here! :fingers-crossed:

Try to flash it using EMMA:

and see if the computer detects the device. Also remove SIM and SD cards and try to boot the M2.

When I connect it in the PC, there is a sound when you plug and unplug a device, thats sounds plays seconds after connect i(it connects it, and then dicsonnects it automaticlly) also It only recognize it when I plug it in fastboot mode..
When I try to power on the device while is in the charger, the no battery big white icon shows, and thats it.

So you can start your M2 in fastboot mode, the led light should turn into blue.
You can try to flash TWRP recovery and then the ROM again, download twrp.img from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767112082
Then to flash it to the M2 from a command line run:
adb reboot bootloader (to enter in fastboot mode)
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/the/twrp.img
Then try to reboot into recovery mode running:
adb reboot recovery
And then from the TWRP menu -> WIPE -> INSTALL the ROM file again.

When I type the first I get a error - error: device '(null)' not found
The device is connected by the way (I got the blue light).

Ok, so adb is not recognizing the device.
When you connect the M2 make sure you hold the VOLUME DOWN before connecting the USB-cable and hold it until EMMA detect it., this can take up to 1 minute. If this didn't help, force a shutdown holding the POWER and VOLUME UP buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds, then connect it to the wall charger and charge the M2 for two or three hours. You can also try by pressing the OFF button on the MICRO SIM slot.

I tried this with Flashtool, its not working, and by the way I have opened the back panel and I have access to the battery, and I can disconnect it directly, to force shutdown it. I did it, and put it on charge for whole day and night, no success at all... :///
