[Q] Please help my sony won't boot up

I'm using sony xperia V and after flashing a cyanogenmod rom which installed perfectly, until I select reboot and the screen
turns black and no matter which button combination or whatsoever I can't boot up.
The only things that happen is:
if unplugged, pressing the power button will vibrate the phone and green LED flash for a second
if plugged into computer the green LED flashes for a long time. Holding the volume+ button before plugging in will flash a blue LED light for some time
Both plugged and unplugged, the screen shows nothing at all, which means can't enter recovery mode, safe mode or download mode.
Is there anyway I can solve this? Or I can only buy a new phone or act dumb at the sony store.
Thanks in advance and sorry for any trouble
[Edit]I finally found a way to solve this problem after hours of frustration. Thanks to this amazing website which I couldn't post it here due to being a new member, which I could say it's from a website named androidgadgetmatic, really turned a completely useless brick into a perfectly working phone again. The only problem left (which happened before bricked) is that my phone couldn't read or even find SD card, any help in this area guys?

Just flashes on startup. Black Screen

I got an HTC One S from a friend who got it from another friend. I don't have any history on the device. He gave it to me to fix because I'm the only Android user he knows and his phone won't start.
If I keep the power button pressed, the capacitive buttons flash exactly 15 times and occasionally the phone vibrates. I don't have a One S so not sure if that indicates that phone was started or shutdown.
Neither fastboot devices not adb devices shows the device. But every once in a while when it vibrates, if the phone is connected to the PC with a USB cable, it beeps - like it's connected. I don't see Android Phone in Device Manager. But I see a MTP USB Device with a yellow exclamation mark. Uninstalling and reinstalling HTC Drivers didn't fix the problem.
I have tried Power+Volume Down key. Shining a torch on it (seemed to work for a few people), keeping it plugged into the mains for 3 days, kept it in the freezer for 2-3 minutes (also seemed to work for one person).
I think when I first got the phone and plugged it into the mains, I saw a red charging light. But I may be mistaken. In any case, there is no light anymore indicating charging. But I don't think that's the problem.
I have no idea whether the device is bricked or not. And if there is any way to fix it. Samsung has Odin which makes any Samsung phone practically unbrickable. I haven't used any HTCs since the G1 so have not been in touch too much with the HTC development. But from reading, it seems that messing around with Romming with S-ON can cause the phone to be bricked. And perhaps that's what my friend or his friend did. Does this sound like that's what could have happened?
Thanks for any pointers.
I dont think the device is bricked. its just a little harder to press the power and volume down when you see the buttons flashing.
just check and do these steps.
connect the mobile to charger and see if the orange light comes and stays on
if the orange light is there, press the power button and keep your finger ready near the volume down button
you should keep the power button pressed and as soon as the orange light disappears you should press the volume down button until you end up in boot loader screen
give this a few tries and see if the device boots up in bootloader

The problem is that I no longer see any light at all when I connect the phone to a charger. It's probably fully charged. Would that show a green light? If so, that's not visible either. I have a feeling that the bootloader has got wiped out or something.
I read in one post that the phone may be stuck in the QHUSB-DLOAD mode.
So I followed the steps in http://unlimited.io/qhsusbdload.htm. But that didn't help. I don't remember the exact statement since I was running an Ubuntu Live CD. But the gist was that it couldn't connect to the phone so presumably it's not stuck in QHUSB-DLOAD mode. Although the site states that it will NOT fix QHSUSB_DLOAD issues encountered by flashing ROMs - which may well be what may have happened.
I understand that running an RUU for the HTC One S may set it back to factory state. But for that I need fastboot to work.

[HELP] Stock 5.0.1 phone power up issue

Hello,
I flashed the latest LRX22C image on my nexus 5 today.Had flashed it clean,wiping data,cache and system etc except the Internal Storage.Then I flashed the SUPERSU 2.37 ZIP .Everything was fine for about 4 hours.Then suddenly when I pressed the power button to turn the screen off,it was not turning off and the "Switch off" mode was popping up instead .Then, when I got a call,it switched off.The phone won't turn on again.It starts,the Google Boot Splash appears and the bootanimation starts for like 2 seconds and it switches off.Same thing for bootloader mode.
Please Help me!
EDIT: Now its turning on by itself and switches off in 2 seconds!
Sounds like a bad power switch to me, but of course that is just my opinion. :good:
sounds like a mech issue.
legit isue
I have the same problem on mine now... Basically my phone powered down around 45%. Battery. At the time i thought it was dead... But it wasnt. When i would plug into external power, either usb or through wireless charging it would power cycle continuously at the android splash screen.... (1 to 2 second intervals - even if i booted into fastboot) Interestingly it would never go to the battery charging mode. But automatically boot on charge... It did this for about 6 hours then i gave up and left it unplugged for a day. I plugged it back in and it started power cycling again, however this time on its third boot it came back to life . thats when i discovered i still had 40% battery... I dont know what exactly made it boot but it did. Oddly also on boot, it started optimising apps and finishing install again. I checked the md5 before I installed the update so no issue there. Since it powered up i have powered the phone off using the power button long push and let the phone power down. After doing this when i plug the phone in to usb charge it goes to the charge screen. No issue. That said, if i try to power up while tethered and charging it will not allow it. It just stays at the charge screen. As soon as i unplug the usb the power button allows the phone to power up and work... When booted up it charges as normal when plugged in. Im convinced there is an issue with the power management drivers or drivers for the button controls. My phone worked fine until the 5.0.1 update was installed. On my nexus 5. Anyone else or just us two? Ive had a hard time finding people posting on this issue.

Help please, black screen of death on Poco X3 NFC the same day i bought it

Hi, i just bought a Poco X3 NFC 128Gb, after 3 hours of use, you know, initial config, app downloading, sing in, etc. I put the phone into my pocket and five minutes later when i tried to unlock it, the phone was death, not responding to anything, i tried to connect charger but nothing happened, not even a led turns on o react, i forced reboot but the only feedback i get was one long vibration followed by one short and nothing else, that every time i tried, i tried all combination of buttons, including keeping one key pressed and repeatedly press power but nothing, i tried to connect it to my PC but it was not detected, i'm advanced user so i have all the drivers, all the tools, not working with community tools i tried, not working with mi flash, not working with mi desktop suite, not working with adb or fastboot or even recognized.
after pressing and pressing buttons i tried holding the volumen - key plus pressing power key and releasing it in spaces of 5 seconds, after 3 o 5 tries it got a big vibration and the power led started to bright, my PC reproduced the device connected sound but it doesn't appear, not adb, not fastboot, not mi flash, anything, it react to certain touches to the screen and the wrong finger vibration when i use the wrong finger in the power button/ Fingerprint reader but nothing else, not sounds, not reactions no any other buttons, or anything to think it was a dead screen only, i tried everything over and over again and no more progress so i give up and send it to warranty with the hope no *tupid excuse by the seller, I'm waiting for an answer so, can any of you give me one please, what happened.
Before i forget, the screen never showed anything again, no logo, no fastboot, no recovery, no backlit even, just black screen of death. Help Please!
Sorry for any mistake in writing, I haven't use English in an exceedingly long time.
Mate, even if the factory has done its QA, some dud devices still make it out into the wild.
Looks like you got one. Hope the seller gets you a new phone fast...

Zenfone 5 Selfie/Lite (ZC600KL) stuck on ASUS logo

Hello! I could not find a section for my phone, so I am posting here.
My Zenfone 5 Selfie/Lite (ZC600KL) randomly "bricked". After being left alone charging for 20 minutes, when I came back it was turned off. Holding the power button resulted in the phone showing the "Powered by Android" logo, then the ASUS logo, and stop there.
I don't think it's a battery issue as it always lasted a long period of time; this is the first time anything like that happens, and might be the last. I also never tried meddling with my phone (rooting or the likes of it), so I'm pretty much clueless. I messed around with the phone, turning it on and off for a while, letting it run out of battery and charge it again, leaving it stuck on ASUS logo over night, to no avail.
Here are some things that I noticed that might help solve this problem:
1. After I connect the charger, the screen shows an empty charging battery along with the LED showing the red color (which means no battery). After 5 seconds, the screen turns on again by itself to show the true state of the battery, which is whatever % it is right now and the correct LED light (orange/green).
2. Turning on the phone makes the "low battery" buzz followed by a normal vibration. If it's charging, the "No battery" red LED shows.
3. I can turn on the fastboot mode by pressing Volume + and Power, but it only shows "CSC Fastboot mode!!! Long press power key to shutdown device". While on fastboot, my computer recognizes the phone is connected through USB, but I cannot access the phone's storage.
4. Pressing Volume - and Power does nothing besides restarting the phone.
My english isn't the best, so I apologize. If there's anything that I messed up and you can't understand, please do tell me.
P.S: Zenfone 5 Selfie is the same phone as Zenfone 5 Lite, but it is known by both names for some reason. Thanks for reading.

Exactly the same problem and phone I have here and Google research has been useless plus it appears this model phone has many firmware versions also
I have tried flashing firmware in fastboot mode but the ADB and fastboot tools won't work as it shows write protected as it appears bootloader is locked and am struggling with QPST also got so desperate to get phone working I even checked out some of those android repair software like DR fone then realised they want $70 USD and instantly removed the software haha
Hope we can get answers but seems like that maybe no one has solutions for this
