iv been looking on the internet for most the day now for a fix (if any) with no luck
yesterday my wife clicked the update without knowing what it would do, (my fault as i did not warn her)
so now its bricked, iv tried everything i can with no luck,
its was locked to orange with a locked bootloader, until i unlocked it and rooted.
running a custom rom.
I have tried to fix it with flashtool and R800i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic_UK.ftf
with no luck
just wondering if anyone knows of any fixes that might work?
Thanks
Some more info -
Flashtool says -
Flashing adsp.sin
Flashing kernel.sin
Flashing amss_fs.sin
Flashing fota1.sin
Flashing fota0.sin
Flashing apps_log.sin
Flashing amss.sin
Flashing cache.sin
Flashing system.sin
Flashing userdata.sin
Flashing finished.
Now unplug the device and power it on
Then go to application settings
turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
But after the flash, it still vibrates every 2 or 3 seconds when holding the power button, and green light flashes, Black screen

Hey folks, my Arc came up today saying that there was an update to the latest software 2.3.3 so I thought why not ill let it go through and update my Arc (wish I hadnt now) :*(
The update downloaded and then went through the update process next thing you know the phone now refuses to boot, charge or anything else.
I can put the phone into flash mode but unfortunatley I cant use SEUS as the bootloader has been unlocked and the phone was rooted.
Any idea how I can flash the generic lt15 rom I have downloaded? any help will be greatly appreciated as it feels like my right arm has been removed (I might add im right handed)
Thanks in advance for any responses.

Don't worry. As the other user have said this, you can download flashtool and flash Generic UK. It fixes the problem most of the time.

All I get is the notification LED faintly flashing green when I hold the power button, I have removed the battery and replaced it and tried flashing the phone.
One thing to note is that as soon as I plug in the phone it seems to go into flash mode straight away and keeps disconnecting and reconnecting (the flashes do complete before the disconnecting)

You said you are unlocked bootloader, then go to Bin4ry thread and install the img file for your phone and should fix it as well./
When you tried for the first time to update to 2.3.3 did you have enough battery. Sometimes during flashing the battery empties out and make sure that is not the case.
I got my Xperia Play yesterday and straight out of the box there has been boot animation or anything when I turn the phone on, the only indication I have that anything has happened is a slight vibration. The screen will stay black until I press home, but it's guesswork as to when the phone has booted. I think this issue might be stopping me getting into CWM recovery but I can't be sure. Ideas anyone?
Repair/update the firmware via Sony Ericsson Update Service (NOT Sony Ericsson PC Companion).
or you can flash it using flashtool and grabbing the ftf file
Have gone through the firmware repair/update; still nothing when booting.
@biggyhead; could you point me in the direction of a guide on how to do what you mentioned please?
Flashing via flashtool will have the same effect as using SEUS to flash (if it is infact flashing) , seems like a faulty unit, return it and get a replacement.
If you still want to proceed:

Well, after a series of rooting and trying to get CWM recovery on my Xperia ZL and getting SuperSU I decided it was time to update to CM 10.1.0 RC5 Odin I didn't unlock my bootloader cause I don't know how, to my knowledge of a video I saw online if your phone says that you cannot unlock your bootloader than you can't. So I just thought it was okay to install CM 10.1.0 and did so, now my phone is stuck in infinite reboot without any sort of logo and just stuck at a black screen. I was wondering if any of you guys can help me solve this :\ thanks!

If you can still access CWM Recovery you can try to restore a backup of your old system. Otherwise you will have to flash an FTF using Flashtools.
(You can find the FTF that belongs to your phone here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2094).
If it is your first time using Flashtools you can search here in xda for guides, there are many that explain how to flash a FTF
And, as I said in another post before, every rom that needs to flash a Kernel (CM10.1, PAC, ReVolt, etc) you must have an unlocked bootloader unless it's tagged as a stock based rom.

I love you so much man, thanks a lot. I'm going to try out a couple of methods to at least restore the phone to 4.1.2. Do you have any advice on how to unlock the bootloader or any roms that doesn't require an unlocked bootloader?
Edit: By the way, I can't access CWM I wish I could, but I tried pressing the hard OFF button on the back of the phone and I tried pressing every button as well, it doesn't connect to my laptop or computer at all. Any way I can connect it to reset it?

Actually all Stock Roms (Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2094) don't require an unlocked bootloader, but if you want to unlock it so you can install Custom Roms (Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2095) that are not Stock based here is a very nice Tutorial about how to do the Unlock Bootloader procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153261

I would recommend you to flash this FTF first because you need to recover your android system first so you can move files in and out, install recoveries, etc. After doing so you can continue with that rom

Do a hard reset on it (using the button on the back), don't turn it on and follow the Flashtools flashing process
1.- Open Flashtools
2.- Flash mode > Flashmode > Select the FTF you just downloaded (The one of 700+MB) > Flash
3.- Connect your Phone if Flash mode (It will start flashing).
4.- Boot your phone and you're ready to go.
When selecting the FTF just select it and leave everything as it is and make sure that you have installed the drivers for flashing (
They are where found you installed Flashtools
In a folder called Drivers, open the .exe and Install these:
- Fastboot drivers
- Flashmode drivers
- Xperia Z and SO-02E drivers
If stills doesn't works I can't help any far as that, but I would suggest you that If you are able try to flash it on another computer (It might sound silly but It could actually work ), also make sure that you're running the latest Flashtool which is v0.9.11.0 and can be found here: http://androxyde.github.io/

Hi everyone,
I hope you guys can help me with my problem.
I recently decided to root my Xperia S and put a custom rom on it.
The first thing i did was unlocking my bootloader following this tutorial --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527159
Then i rooted the device with this tutorial --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44918676&postcount=1
Instead of putting the 6.2.B.1.96_KernelOnly immediatly after the rooting process i first installed recovery using this tutorial --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2308493
Only after installing recovery i put the kernel back to 6.2.B.1.96.
After this my phone was fully working, rooted with unlocked bootloader and latest official version.
I wanted to try to install a custom rom on it and installed this one --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2476341 trough recovery.
I wasn't happy about this rom and wanted to try a different one but could not access the recovery anymore.
At this point i used an official 6.2.B.1.96 tft to install everything back to official. After this i noticed my root privileges were gone.
I wanted to root it back so i tried to follow the rooting tutorial again and flashed my kernel back to 6.2.B.0.211.
After this flash my screen turned black and i am not able to see anything on it.
My touchscreen and phone is still working as i hear the screenlock sound when i swipe my screen to unlock it.
I am still able to take pictures, to plug it on my computer (I see the pictures in DCIM) and flashmode and fastboot are still working.
I searched the past day on the net at tried everything i could find. I flashed again, tried with Emma, locked my bootloader again and tried with PCC but nothing works. Screen stays black.
Please, i hope you guys can guide me trough this process.
Thank you !
Update: I connected my phone with an HDMI cable to my tv and i can see my phone on the screen.
I am sure the phone is working.
Please guys help me, i have no idea what to do now.

Hello guys... I'm new here... but I've already follow lots of your instructions to help me out
The problem is... I have a Xperia ZL that is 1 yo... actually, it's 1 year and 1 month old... (yep, here in Brazil Sony delayed to release thei products, now it's a little bit faster, we already have Z3 in stores )...
The phone was rooted with towelroot and working just fine... suddenly it didn't recognize my SIM Card no more... then it just started to act strangely... the band signal was blank and there was a red X on it... then the phone stopped responding at all and started a infinite loop of restarts... just bought a new blank SIM and transfered my number to it... NOTHING HAPPENED.... I started search into the net, the forum... some attempts and nothing... so I use the Sony PC Companion to repair my phone... nothing new... then I use flashtool and the newest firmware "C6503 10.5.1.A.0.292" for it.. the phone started to work again...
I was using it for 2 days and suddenly (again) the same symptoms happened... no signal at all... then ... no phone at all... it starts... the a black screen with the "back" button and the "no signal", battery and time... when I try to pull down the bar it's RUSSIAN! (and I got the brazilian firmware)... then the phone restart... SONY..XPERIA... same things... nothing new...
I've tried to repair with PC Companion... flashed and REFLASHED with the firmware... and NOTHING... I thought it could be the SIM... but it's working on other phones....
Guys, DUNNO what to do... but I'm desperate!!!

My suggestion,
Steps
1) If your bootloader is unlocked, relock your bootloader
2) Now goto flashmode, use flashtool to install your firmware which previously worked fine for you.
From your previous post, i could understand that after a fresh firmware update it was working fine for 2 days before the same problem started to appear.
3) Once the OS loads and home screen appears, goto playstore and download catlog and let it monitor until the problem occurs again.
We will see from your log.....
I suspect this could be a software issue. Try using any older firmware....

2) Now goto flashmode, use flashtool to install your firmware which previously worked fine for you.
From your previous post, i could understand that after a fresh firmware update it was working fine for 2 days before the same problem started to appear.
3) Once the OS loads and home screen appears, goto playstore and download catlog and let it monitor until the problem occurs again.
We will see from your log.....
I suspect this could be a software issue. Try using any older firmware....

Hello.. yep.. it had worked for 2 days then stopped again...
My bootloader I think it's locked... i've never changed that, but how can I check it?
In flashmode I've done that and it's not working... same result everytime I do that...

What are the ftf files that you tried flashing using flashtools.give me the full version nos
You mean to say, after flashing your ftf file via flashtool this time it is going to bootloop
and it's not working for 2 days like it did before.
As previously said try download and flashing any old firmware(preferably jellybean) ftf files which has got good reviews that it worked.See if goes into bootloop without booting into homescreen
Don't worry if you have not done anything to unlock bootloader it will still be locked. Don't mess up with bootloader if you are not sure about what you are doing.
If it is unlocked it will ask to relock when you use BLU button in flashtool

What's the "full version nos" I mean, where can I see that?
I'll try to grab an old version to see if it works... didn't try that.. only with newer versions...
I said that the when the problem appeared for the 1st time I flashed the phone and it worked for 2 days... then started looping again... but now I can't make it work anymore.. doing flash doens't change the loopings... I'll try an old version..
"bout the bootloader, I didn't change anything... I mean, not that I know... LOL... HOW we do that? (so I can confirm I didn't do anything)... This "BLU button" I think I tried that once... how to know if it's locked or unlocked now? LOL
THANKS for your help!!

K once you install a older ftf firmware file, reply me back with the results.(Preferably any jellybean version Example-10.4.1.b.0.101(Be sure to download your country variant)). If you are able to goto flashmode, i am sure that you can revive your phone. What i meant by full version no is nothing but 10.5.A.0.230 or 10.5.1.A.0.283 etc. I guess your ftf file is not proper thats why you are going into a bootloop. Like i said download any old firmware file and flash it.
If you had already unlocked your bootloader using BLU button in flashtool, now when you click BLU button it will give you and option to 'relock' instead of 'unlock'. If it shows 'relock' it means your bootloader is unlocked.
See my replies in the below thread to understand more about what could cause bootloop problems....

Selected Bundle for Xperia ZQ (C6503). FW release : 4.3 - 10.4.B.0.569 R2C - 1270-0684. Customization : Claro Brazil
Operation Successfully finished... but when trying to start phone.. an error message appeared that system has stop responding.. .. black screen and nothing happens... then REBOOT... I could see the mais screen for one second then.. REBOOTED again... and bootloop again...
Now.. it starts.. I can see the main windows with the screen locked, I slide to unlock it... same thing.. black screen, I can see the battery and "no signal" icons.. and BANG! Reboot...

Sorry to hear that frnd. Seems something is really messed up in your phone.
I guess since you tried flashing different firmwares it might be a hardware problem causing this issue. But to be sure about which part (SIM related issue, could even be issue related to TA partition ) caused the reboot issue, i need to see the logs which will be easy for you to collect if your device boots properly,which is not possible for your case .
There is another way to collect it but you should have already enabled 'USB Debugging mode' in your mobile the last time it worked. Anyway try and select if it works. Check below link to see how to access logs. Even if we get logs if it is hardware related issue you still need to get it to sony service center.
http://developer.android.com/tools/help/logcat.html
It is upto you. I could still further down on this issue but it is upto you. I suggest you, take your mobile to service center if they cannot do anything/if they say you should use it as a costly paperweight, get it here we will go on with advanced tracking methods/we will even try unlocking your bootloader and try flashing custom rom to see if it works. . But beware, i am NOT responsible for any further damage if it happens to your mobile...
If you further want to take the risk Private message me i will give you my skype id.
