Hi guys.
I'am in truble. My Xperia ARC won't boot up. When i tying to turn it up, nothing happens, just blinks the green notification light.
What happened?
I rooted my phone (so the bootloader is also unlocked), everything was fine. The problem started, when android asked me to update the phone. I said: Why not? The phone turned off, and since that it won't boot up.
Please help.
Sounds like you have to flash a rom... Can you connect it to your pc with flashtool or fastboot?

First of all, I'm a noob at this. So don't expect me to know everything.
I got a rooted Xperia SL with ICS.
(Please read all before replying)
This is what happened. I was trying to update my phone to 6.2.B.0.200 JellyBean with Sony PC Companion. But it didn't work as both Flash Boot and Fast Boot doesn't work properly in my phone (told u im a noob). When I hold the volume down button while the phone is off, and then connect the USB cable, the green LED will light up for about 3 seconds and then it goes off, and the phone shows the charging battery icon.
So I downloaded the firmware from a thread here in xda forum, and tried to flash it with CWM. But then, the flash failed and the phone is now stuck on a boot loop with the "SONY" logo displaying forever.
So I again tried to flash it with flashtool, but the same problem came with Flashboot and Fastboot. It just goes into flashboot for few seconds, flashtool recognizes the phone. And then it disconnects and I see a notification in windows saying USB Device Unrecognized.
Please help me out to solve this problem, this phone is all I got
P.S. - I already had enough battery (around 60%) when I tried to get into flashboot.

Fixed it. Not so sure, but I think what made it work was running flashtool as administrator...
Use SUS

I also had got the same problem while updating to ics .55 firmware. I suggest you to use Sony Update Service instead of PC Companion.
First of all charge your phone upto one and half hour then follow the SUS instructions carefully while updating, It may help you !
All the best !
Hello guys, so i've had my xperia S for a long time now, and i have had an issue when the battery becoems fully empty, and it doesnt boot, i reset it via pressing volume up and power button, and then charge a bit then it boots...
Now i have installed the trinity rom, im running version 19...
My phone's battery is empty, i charged it, and it automaticly tried to boot, it got stuck on the sony logo for about an hour, now i cant boot, cant access cwm, cant do anything ...
Any ideas?
If something didnt get clear ask me...

Hello there,
I have been using my xperia ion since around 6 months with stock rom and never tried to tinker with anything, lately suddenly my phone stopped working i.e it started a reboot loop. the phone turns on to the sony logo then gets to the 'rethink possible' screen and then a blue/black glaze appears and the phone restarts which happen again and again, as this phone is off warranty, i tried to flash it some other (4.1.2) stock rom but still no luck, when i connect my phone to the pc using the usb cable while holding the volume down button, the green led does shows up but the flash software says (error flashing - aborted). I have attached a picture of the same.
Please see into it and help me get through it.
I will be much thankful fellas.

Hi,
I was recently flashing cwm 6.0.4.4 on my Xperia S which has is rooted and has its boot loader unlocked. I rebooted the phone after flashing and the phone would no longer turn on, the soft reset and hard reset do not work and I cant get the phone in the fastboot or flash mode. I have taken the battery out but nothing happened, when I plug the phone in with not battery however the red led light flickers in a pattern but im not sure what this has to do with anything. Is there any hope for saving this phone?
Please help.
Thanks
Any help please???
Anyone?
Hi guys,
I am in trouble.
My only phone is C6502 and I flashed it with 5.1.1 taiwan rooted rom yesterday.
My procedure was:
1, use flashtool to make it as rom 4.4.2 230 and rooted
2, use cwm to flash it with 5.1.1 rooted taiwan rom
at the beginning, everything went well. however, after updated several apps in google store, it automatically shut down for several time. I opened sim card back and used a stick to power off. after restarting, it stuck at the SONY logo and automatically and repeatedly restart. I have to power off with a stick for the second time. Since this second, trouble came. No matter what I did, it just automatically shut down at the SONY logo. I tried to flash it back to several roms and nothing changed. (no green light while flashing). Still stuck and shut down at the sony logo (different roms ha
ve different styles of logo, so it shut down at different sony logos). Charging doesn't work. it showed the red led first following with a green blink, and then no more light. The flashtool cannot recognize it as ADB mode but as flashmode.
Could you please help me. I hope you guys could let me know what was going on and how can I unbrick it.
Thank you for your time in advance. Wish you the best.

It's common ZL behaviour on broken battery controller (attached to battery). Reflashing will not help (it's hardware bug) but changing the battery (and it's faulty controller) definitely bring your Xperia back to life. I did it twice on mine (1st time it was not charging at all, stuck on Sony logo on boot, 2nd time it worked only with power cord connected).
After changing battery, just reflash it via official Sony PC Companion (if your bootloader still locked), then do whatever you want )
p.s. If you don't want wait / can't find new battery, you also can try short-pin method with current one. Idea is to bypass it's controller, so it will charge / work again. Search XDA to find out which pins need to be connected.
