My phone get started, shows that i have some messages and missed calls but it doesnot respond, neither buttons are working and after few seconds display goes black.

With flashing i'll loose my warranty, is there any other way..? My phone is brand new, neither rooted

Use SEUS or PC Companion then if you're worried about warranty, but the flashtool is the preferred method.

If you can't get in flashmode (which requires the phone to be off) then it's a trip to the service center, or contact Alejandrissimo or Jinx13 for remote help.

What rom and kernel do you use? Try to connect when you have usb-debugging enabled (I've had the same problem with stock rom)

I have found a way to connect my phone with the PC using "MyPhoneExplorer"
but still i cant connect it with my PC companion.
I must have messed up my phone's drivers.
So do you have any suggestions to help me connect with the PCcompanion..??
Device manager, connect the phone, if you find a device with yellow triangle, delete the drivers, restart, reconnect

[Q] Stuck at Sony Ericsson splash screen?

I rooted my play, got the CWM installer, did a backup, did a factory reset, then flashed JJ's Hybrid ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573547).
Then I rebooted, but it won't boot. It's just stuck at the "Sony Ericsson" splash screen. I've tried going into recovery, won't work. Also taken the battery out and tried again, but that didn't work either.
I read in another thread that you can't flash with less than 50% charge? Mine may have been at around 48% at the time...
Does anyone know where I went wrong, and more importantly how to get my phone working again?
Is your bootloader unlocked? Because the rom only works with unlocked bootloader

I did not unlock the bootloader...
Know how to fix this?
I think, you have to flash a stock ftf with flashtool
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
I'm downloading both now, thanks for your help
I think I'll be ok from here, but stick around if I need any more help!
Feel free to ask

Hmmm... I tried to flash it but it said I needed to install the drivers. I installed the drivers, but it still says "ERROR - Drivers need to be installed for connected device"
Any idea?
I think I have the same problem. My device is not recognized at all, how am I supposed to use flashtool?
Do you have pc companion and update service installed too? I had the same error with earlier flashtools and installing those two programs seemed to make it work nicely
Sent from my R800a using XDA App
You could try the Sony Ericsson update service tool: http://sony-ericsson-update-service.en.uptodown.com/
Sorry for the lame link, couldn't find an "official" one, but can confirm the above works. I flashed mine yesterday back to stock with it.

Try refreshing kernel?
Sent from my LT28i using XDA Free mobile app
When powered off, connect to charger. Does it show kernel logo? Or even charging icon? If it show charging icons, power up without disconnecting charger.
Sent from my R800i using XDA Free mobile app
No, nothing apears....
When i try to turn it on, it only vibrates....
I can concet it on flash mode....or download mode....when i press "return" and connect it on computer....
Hard to say what is wrong...
Maybe damaged bootloader, but can be simply bad slider flex cable
