[Solved] Hard bricked my Xperia J...

Hello everyone,
Yesterday I've tried to update my Xperia J to the new Jelly Bean firmware, but before that, I've done a full wipe and format system and cache through CWM. After that, I reboot my phone and it never goes after the Sony logo. I've tried to repair it with PC Companion, SUS and Flashtool, but everytime it starts to flash new Rom, the green led goes off and nothing is done.
Is there any solution for this, or should I go to the store and pray that it isn't to expensive to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

Anyone have a suggestion?

Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
Its not hard bricked.Its really normal for green light to go off while flashing ftf.Just wait for the flashtool to complete preparing files and then connect your phone in flash mode(green led) after the prompt appears.It will instantly start the flashing process (and yes, the green led goes off as soon as flashing starts so dont worry).
You may also experience a strange problem where the flashtool gets stuck at 0 percent. You can fix that by trying some older version of flashtool.
Good luck

Thanks a lot for your help, I'm really getting stucked at 0 percent at Flashtool. I can´t even repair it with PC Companion, that's why I was afraid that is was an hard brick. I'm going to try with an older version of Flashtool as you've said.
Thanks again.
EDIT: I've tried with an older version of Flashtool and still no luck, always getting stucked at 0 percent. I read somewhere that my problem must be that my phone at this moment don't have any operating system and that probably I couldn't fix it at home. Is this true or is there something more I can do?

Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
Well i used to get this problem with my flashtool.Installing an older version did the trick for me.You can try flashing from some other system

Re: [Help] Hard bricked my Xperia J...
If you got unlocked bootloader then you can fastboot flash fxp kernel followed by the rom itself.This will atleast make your device functional again.

Unfortunately my bootloader is locked.
I will try again, but this time on my computer here at work.
EDIT: Still no luck in another computer. I guess I will need to go to Vodafone Store at the end of the day and see what they can do with my phone.

Good news!!
I've installed PC Companion here on my work computer and it repaired my phone. Probably there's some kind of problem with my computer at home. I'm already flashing Jelly Bean normally with flashtool.
Thanks a lot for your help balboarocky.

Use Flashtool for this

I have got the same problem when i am trying to root my phone after that i flash my device with flashtoot and now its perfect working

Really hard Brick sony xperia J
under clockwork mod (after using int for installing cyanogen) i want to erase some data because my Cyanogen install was bugged (i forgot to Md5 checksum, so the files was maybe corrupted),
but i was very tired.and it's more than possible than i erase boot or systeme,
since that NO Led, No fastboot or Flashmode connections,
Do you think my Xperia is dead from dead (tm) .
Edit : to make the phone react and avoid bootloop i have to remove the battery and use it like the "power button" to take my phone in Flashboot, reflash Cwm and my phone work again ....

[Q] Stuck reboot

Hello. Greetings from Canada.
I managed today to finally root my Sony Xperia J ST26a after several months of having tried for the first time.
My experience rooting devices is very limited.
I deleted a lot of bloatware put by Sony and Bell
The phone worked quite well for a while until I got "trigger happy" and started to delete more apps.
One of these deleted apps was com.sonyericsson.home.
Such app stopped working and the phone became unusable.
I rebooted the phone and it is stuck on the Xperia animation.
Is there a way to regain access to the phone? Or is it bricked?

Thank you DPxMiro.
Your suggestion led me the right way.
I did not use flashtool. Ended up doing a hard reset of my phone as stated in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1862664
Phone works again. :good:

I've tried Pc companion and a factory reset through the phone but it still keeps cutting out and rebooting when ever the screen goes off, its only 2 month old. only normal apps from the play store have been installed not any from the internet downloaded.

Try to take logcat to see what is the problem. Download Android sdk tools, in tools folder you'll find monitor.bat, there you have logcat option.
If you have warranty just take it to Service.
Good Luck.

Finally i got it solved. Only when i made
the 3ª hard reset but this time with the
"backup data" settings turned off and
the "Automatic restore"turned off in the
same settings, it worked. I think some
aplication update was causing the
problem and it is happening in a lot of
M2 devices. It is a shame that we can't
downgrade the apps frm the store.

Which app was it then?, I use both those functions just fine so can't be using it.

i have the same problem just it won't give me the factory mode
what should i do?

Xperia z3 lollipop firmware not installing

Hi guys recently my Xperia z3 updated to 5. 1. 1 lollipop and rebooted it said install applications for firmware then stopped at like 87/144 and eventually the battery drained out and the phone won't charge at all sent it to Sony and they said they can't fix it any one has any idea how I can do it my self
Appreciate any help possible fixing this phone paid alot of money and I'm disappointed Sony won't fix it

Try if you can get it into flashmode.
Hold the vol down and connect it to your PC while holding it.
It should start into flash mode (blue LED if I remember correctly) and in the PC's device manager a new device should pop up.
If it works you can easily reflash a official ftf with Flash Tool.

i tried that but it doesn't work it gives me an error when i connect the phone

and my bootloader is still locked

Can u still access the recovery?
I'm assuming yes then why don't you try a custom ROM.
Just search the XDA Forum. Your ll get official ROM as well.

perss volume up and power for a while
It will shut down your phone
Then, dont connect your phone to pc
use xperia companion and choose repair
Finally press volume down and connect to pc

I tried that and it didn't work but i fixed it
i can't access recovery or use xperia companion because it gives an error but i fixed it by downloading an ftf and flashing it with flashtool i then updated my phone to marshmallow with xperia companion, but thank you for replying
