Bricked? Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra - Sony XA2 Ultra Questions & Answers

So… I bricked my Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra while trying to install TWRP 3.5.2. Bootloader is unlocked.
Here’s what the phone doesn’t do:
· Doesn’t turn on
· Doesn’t vibrate when power is pressed
· Doesn’t vibrate when power is pressed for a long time
· Doesn’t vibrate when power+vol down is pressed for a long time
· Doesn’t vibrate when power+vol up is pressed for a long time
· Doesn’t light up any LED when connected to a wall charger
· Doesn’t light up any LED when connected to a PC
· Doesn’t light up any LED when connected to a PC with vol up pressed
· Doesn’t light up any LED when connected to a PC with vol down pressed
But here’s what it still does, so at least there’s still hope it may resurrect from the dead:
· It is recognized when connected to a PC as “Other devices / QUSB_BULK”
· It is recognized when connected to a PC with vol down pressed as “Other devices / QUSB_BULK”
· It is recognized when connected to a PC with vol up pressed as “Other devices / QUSB_BULK” but only for a few seconds, and then it disconnects. So at the very least the device “knows” it should be doing something differently when connected with vol up pressed
So it does seem to still hold a chance.
Can you help me out? Thanks in advance!

install sony drivers/ gordon gate drivers for your QUSB_BULK detected in device manager
when drivers installed, it should read something like "SOMC flash device" instead of QUSB_BULK
then, install firmware with newflasher.
if the newflasher couldn't find your phone, then go to repair shop which has SETOOL dongle, that's the last resort.

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.

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!!

Please Help. Z3 won't turn on, Solid Blue light.

My Z3 was running a custom firmware perfectly and then I let it die, and couldn't charge it for a few days. Now I have had it plugged in for a while and tried many different cables and nothing. I tried holding soon power and volume up, I get 3 vibrations and then a solid blue light appears in the notification light. Same thing also happens when I press yellow reset, I get 3 vibrations. Computer doesn't seem to recognise the phone at all.
Hey Jolbol1,
So it turns out you've been booting your device into Fastboot mode if i'm correct - You've said your device vibrates 3 times when pressing the Yellow Reset button found underneath the microSD card flap, with this it leads me to believe there's still a chance to recover your phone as it's not completely dead, first off unplug your device (imagining it's in fastboot mode [Fastboot mode = Blue LED + Blank Screen]) this would take you out of fastboot mode and lead me to believe your device is now in it's off state, Now what i'd like you to perform is a Factory Reset, whether it's by Sony PC Companion or Flash Tool.
The Flashtool method is a lengthier and more difficult process in my own opinion, however it's the route i usually take in order (click here for a step by step guide on how to perform a factory reset with flashtool)
Additionally the method i'd recommend for you to try is first off download Sony PC Companion Once done, ensure Sony PC Companion is running, once checked plug the USB into your PC (ENSURE IT'S NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR PHONE YET) Hold the Volume Down button and plug the other end into your device this puts your device into flash mode, Next follow the instructions on screen and it'll re-install the software onto your device

D2206 bootloop, side buttons doesn't work

D2206. Got into a bootloop (the phone only shows the Sony and Xperia logo but ain't starting the system and just restarting forever doing it again and again). Can't get into Fastboot mode because volume buttons and power button isn't reacting at all. The only solution to force it to show some traces of life is plug him to PC or to a charging device but nothing happens except the charging lightning animation appears. And after connecting to PC, it seems like Flashtool recognize him, but nothing can be done because of the periodic 5-7 second interval disconnects.
Any solutions or tips?
You need to power off before connecting. Here's how.
I don't know if you figured this out or still need the help now, but I'm answering because it's the one thing here that I do know the answer to.
From your description, it sounds like you are trying to connect your phone to PC while the phone is still in boot loop. This will not work. You need to power it off first. Since your power and volume buttons won't respond during boot loop, you will need to use the hardware override that is provided.
Under the back panel of your phone, between the SIM2 and microSD slots, you will see a small punch-hole about 2 mm in diameter and labelled "OFF." Use a pen or precision screwdriver to gently press the off switch located inside this punch-hole for about 1 sec. Phone should switch off.
Wait about 15 sec before connecting to PC in Flash (Vol Up pressed down) or Fastboot (Vol Down pressed down) mode until the LED flashes the respective colour and then you can follow whatever instructions you are following.

LTE 32GB bricked by himself

Hello
Yesterday while i was watching ads in some freemium game tablet just turned off. I plug it to original charger and tried to turn on, but screen do not light up. Then I tried to press Power Button with Volume Up or Volume Down for from couple to 30 seconds but without any luck. When i connected tablet to PC, it shows as "APX" and system can not find drivers for it. When it is connected to PC via USB cable and when i press Power Button and Volume Up or Volume Down for 10 seconds light change from orange to green and tablet dissappear from device list in windows device manager and when i do it again it comes back as APX (doesn't matter which combination) so it looks like i can not get into fastboot mode.
What happend? What can i do to bring it back to life which was stopped for no apparent reason?
Tablet was flashed and after updated couple of months ago to newest OTA via ADB and it is with B01 battery.
My PC is on Windows 7.

volume and on\off button broken/not responding. How to turn on device?

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)
