Xperia Play DEAD ? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I was using my phone when he just crashed, after that my notification led doesn't work at all (charge, flashmode or fastboot), the backlight doesn't work at all too, the phone is laggy, sometime he vibes, shutdown & in the top it indicate that battery is 0% ?!
I tried much things but it still doesn't work...
If someone could help it'll be really nice.
Thanks

do you use custom rom and kernel?
if you do, just re-flash the kernel and re-install the rom, don't forget to do full wipe
and if you use original firmware (you never done anything to your phone), you can fix it using sony update service which you can find it here
http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
do what it says you to do
hope it'll help

But, I allready did all that you said, but it still the same. I think it's an hardware issue of the motherboard but how to repair that ?

At this point probably better to buy a replacement. I can get a used in nice condition AT&T xperia play for about $140 on eBay.
Even after you FTF it still has the issue?

Looks like system uid inconsistent error.

So mine isn't the only one that vibrates if you stress it out too much? Hm.
And yeah, I would restore it to stock, then remove all bloatware. If it's a hardware issue, go buy a Galaxy Nexus.

If my phone was broke, I'd go with a Galaxy Nexus in a heartbeat. Sure, we have buttons, but honestly, I just don't see the support from that many people. If this was as popular as the Xoom, GNexus, or Razr, all of our bootloaders would be unlocked. But they just don't wanna put in the time and effort.

[Q] What is the quickest way to break a xperia play?

i know the title seems a bit off but anyway my xperia play has been sent off to be repaired twice and if it breaks again i get a new handset of the same value but my warranty goes in December but the phone speakers weren't working the other day when i went to bring it down to the shop halfway the sound works again is there anyway to make it look like it was a manufacturer fault within the phone ?
You can try to flash your boot loader and "fail" then the phone won't turn on and the LED will flash red till the BL is back

You could try sliding the gamepad up and down vigorously and hope the flex cable goes wierd. I got mine repaired that way
Install YouTube and leave that open with the charger plugged in. I fell asleep once and my phone got unbearably hot.

Yeah, maybe try to get the phone really hot and see what happens.
Do a factory reset and pull out the battery during the process haha.

Doesn't a factory reset just reset userdata? So wouldn't you just be able to do another factory reset to fix any issues that may arise from the failed reset?
Throw into water and watch it swim.

Help! Phone not turning on

Hey guys,
I am having an issue with my phone. I had CM10-M2 running on my phone and I didnt like it that much because I missed some of the stock features so I decided I would flash the foxhound 1.3 rom that just came out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708371 that one.
I followed the instructions and did everything that was recommended.
The phone turned off and now won't even go into recovery or anything. Just a black screen.
Please help!
ps the phone is on Rogers and is an i747ma
Thanks,
Zach
Edit: I dont know what this means but when I take the battery out and plug it in the red light comes on but still nothing else

Odin isnt recognizing the phone but when I plug it into my computers it stills chimes that something has been plugged in. Also when I connect it to a power source without the battery in, the LED turns red.

Welp ****. I took it to Rogers but since I bought it off of kijiji they couldnt do anything. It was bought on October 2nd and they said I couldnt even send it for repair because it wasnt registered to me.
I called Samsung and they said to ship it for a repair but even if they can't repair it, they couldnt replace it. The lady said she would have to tell Rogers to replace it but Rogers already said they wouldnt.
What do?

Did you actually get it from the Rogers store? Because when you do they can issue replacements but when you buy it from somebody else they said that they couldn't do it.

haa d2att bro all u need to remember
Seems like you should research more before flashing roms. If you find out how to fix your phone be more careful next time. If you aren't sure always ask in the Q&A section. A comment from a user can save your phone.
Hey Question did you even try a JIG ? that is the only thing that will get you into DL mode when soft bricked

Bricked? OMAPFlash 4440

Hey
After a few days of random rebooting, my Gnex wouldnt boot. It was just stuck on the "Google" screen.
So i decided to flash a clean image, but it only got to flash the first part. Cant remember what its called, but it said success in the toolkit(i know, i know). Then it just stopped, and the screen on the phone, the sceen had lots of spots in different colors, and only had a little text in the bottom. Not in the top as normal, so it must have stoped during a operation right.
But now it doesnt turn on. I get the OMAP4440 in device manager when i connect it to the computer, and i think my only hope is to do a OMAP Flash. But i cant find one for OMAP4440. I found one, but after i ran it, i noticed it was for 4460. I ran it again to see if the phone had gotten worse, but the OMAP Flash still catches it.
Anyone got a link for a OMAP Flash for 4440, so i can try with the right one?
Thanks

I cant have used anything wrong to begin with. I went from a unstable device, to a non booting. Just stuck at boot. I had fastboot and ran a toolkit to reinstall a clean image(was on there allready).
I have used the exact same toolkit before without problems. But this time, it just stopped with all those vierd colors on the screen.
The OMAP 4460 actually seems to run as it should. I see no errors. But the phone is still as dead as before.
Any suggestions before i smash the damn thing with a hammer?

Possible sds

Hello
5 month Note 2 user that had almost no complaints till early april where my phone started lagging, restarting every few hours(it did restart once every 2-3 days since they day i bought it) and touch screen not being responsive. Result was the problem becoming worse and me having to search for it and finding out about SDS. I checked my phone through EMMC and it says my chip is insane... as soon as I saw that I tried backing everything up but as it turned out, it was too late..I've lost all my game data (I've managed to copy a few games but its a few stages back..for example my subway surfers save is like 2-3 months back...), i've lost ALL of my contacts and my smscontact backup says it has no contacts on the backupfile...
regardless, I sent it to the local Samsung retail and they kept it for a week, got it back today, same thing happening...They told me they found humidity + errors on my phone and they had to clear/wipe it out completely. Its been like 3-4 hours since i got it and it already got stuck at a black home screen error + unable to swap applications and once on a non-responsive touch screen. I contacted the Samsung retailer and he told me that it could be an error from my SD card. I highly doubt that, am using a san disk 32gb ultra speed and I only have movies on it actually so...
Now my 'questions'...What can I do? Rooting it can fix it? Or will it void my warranty completely? If I root and it breaks again can I unroot and send it to have it fixed? And if they cant fix it, do they replace my phone with another one? Like a new note 2 or a new samsung phone?
Thanks
Ps: already posted this on sprint forums by mistake and it was suggested to me to try removing my sd card..no difference

well it is what people say "symptoms of the sudden death" so probably and all says that( 5 months, strange behaviour. .) if they dont fix you can talk to them that probably it is SDS if not you'll have to wait until the phone dies or send lots of times (like a guy who said that here in xda) and they probably replace the motherboard. theres nothing at the moment to do if it have been affected by the corrupted data but you can update to the latest firmware which is suposed to have the fix
hope I answered your question

well the problem is that if the phone send some corrupted data to the chip when you were at 4.1.1 there's nothing to do.
The repair centre "doesn't know about it" because if they do know they'll have to asume that problem and they will lose money. The correct procediment is to change de motherboard however sometimes they just put an old one with the insane chip again. If you really want this phone and I assume that you do like it, when they replace and send it back update to 4.1.2 ASAP therefore they usually update before sending back.

They are already losing money when they fix my phone cause of full warranty.. i loved the phone but am disappointed right now and with the possibility of changing phones i dont mind..cause all in all it has its downsides..ie too big to carry, takes a looong time to charge and regardless ive already lost all my data so its already like i got a new phone..

You should have a new imei if they changed mb i think.

Nobody loses money but Samsung. Your local samsung service center is not Samsung company. They are third companies that have an agreement with Samsung to fix samsung phones officially in your country.
They lose money only if they replace a motherboard that is already working or not covered under warranty (user faults).
Once I talked(personally) to one of Samsung services in my country, they said mostly they are not able to understand these new generation smartphones. Most of the time all they do is just replacing motherboards, they said
My suggestion to you, print several sudden death syndrome reported web pages and show them or email them if you can. Samsung is replacing bricked motherboards with no question asked (even rooted ones).

it's dead Jim!

I will try to make this as short as possible. I got my vzw galaxy nexus used on eBay 3 months ago. I loved it like it was my second child. A week ago I noticed the radio was not showing a signal or a very weak one, sometimes but it always worked. Until last night, It wouldn't register a signal so I rebooted it. It started to boot loop, never getting past the nexus logo. It was unlocked, rooted, but running stock jdq39. I left the battery out for an hour and it did boot to the lock screen. I would unlock then it would reboot again by itself. I then went down the road of trying to flash stock images, radios, and even cm10. All the stock images failed on flashing CDMA-radio. Cm10 came up but it started boot looping again, baseband was unknown as well as other info under status. As a last resort I tried to Odin 4.0.2 it failed at the very end trying to write (wait for it) CDMA-radio. Now it only boots to a yellow triangle with a phone and computer image on either side. I an not missing anything stupid right? The CDMA radio must be toast.

Probably. Fastboot also fails?
a maguro wrote this.
It certainly sounds like a part of the hardware in the radio has been going bad. Is there any warranty left on it? Not sure if they're transferable since you bought it on eBay, but it's worth a shot to at least ask, either at your store or Samsung. The only other random things you might try is taking the LTE sim out and if you have access a different battery? Since it's failing on CDMA, the sim shouldn't have any effect, but since it's dead, it's worth a shot. Same for the battery. But yeah, sounds dead.

Yeah I can't even get into the boot loader anymore. So adb and fast boot don't work, but Odin still connects and can flash, just gets stuck at the cdma-radio.

Thanks! It was absolutely the cdma radio that died. The replacement came with CM10.1 RC4 but decided to flash it back to jdq39 stock. It flashed without problem using the same USB cable, computer and drivers. It seemed like hours when I flashed the cdma radio but in reality it only took a few minutes, but was very relived when it finished successfully. I figure I am just going to keep the other parts in case I need them.
