[Solved] Bricked my Xperia Play R800i - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently i flashed a wrong file via cwm in my phone(unlocked boot), and the phone got laggy. So i decided to go back to stock and start over. I flashed gb 2.3.3 and did an 2.3.4 update via wifi on it(cos im an idiot) and now my phone doesn't boot at all.
Problems with the phone currently:
Only vibrates when i try to on it(holding power button)
Green led lights up when i plug in usb
Flashtool doesn't recognize the device model making it unflashable though it detected that the device is in flashmode
Any ideas/help would be appreciated.

[Q] XPERIA Play won't start, shows flash mode evertime connected with USB

Hello,
my XPERIA Play is broken and I don't knwo how to fix it.
I've first unlocked the bootloader and then flashed Cyanogenmod 7.1 on it.
But the vibration doesn't have any function and so i flashed with flashtool the stock firmware witch I found in this forum. After that I've started OTA Updater and my phone shutted down. Now it won't start anymore, it vibrates shortly and if you hold the power button longer, it vibrates in dinstances.
When I connect the XPERIA with my computer (Windows 7) the green lights shining and my pc says that it's in flash mode. I can't change to Fastboot Mode.
I've flashed more than once firmwares on the phone, everything I've done couldn't fixe it..
Can anybody help me?

Well you can't get OTA updates when your bootloader is unlocked.Unfortunately I can't help much about the problems with the flash mode since I've never encountered such a problem.So sorry about that.
EDIT:When you try to update Via OTA your phone would surely get bricked because once your bootloader's unlocked SE doesn't consider your phone as warranted and certificates within the phone gets wiped because that would enable flashing 3rd party firmwares and kernels.
Sorry if I'm making this complicated.

I've relocked the bootloader, that wasn't the problem.
I could fix it with flashtool, I only had to flash the bootloader form the developer section and now everything works fine. I can also update with SEUS again (tested from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5)

Oh my mistake, I mean 2.3.4

Stuck at Sony logo

So, I was using .431 generic global world (GGW) build for my xperia arc till today.
Today, I noticed that .587 GGW came out and decided to update.
I already had unlocked bootlader with no root with .431.
First, I backup everything & factory-wiped my phone.
I tried to enter flash mode with no avail for over 10+ tries.
Then I decided to trick SPC update to force my phone into flash mode.
It put the phone to flash mode as I thought.
I successfully flashed .587.
Then I started to root.
I used the guide at this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26805903&postcount=3
After the 2nd step I noticed that I can't enter the flash mode even with SPC trick.
I deleted all previous usb drivers and settings.
I also reinstalled all sony software and drivers from scratch.
I was still unable to enter flash mode.
Then, I noticed I could enter fastmode.
So, I renamed the ftf file to zip and extracted the files.
Then, I used fastboot mode to flash new kernel.
Phone was rooted and working.
I installed CWM and got a full backup.
So, I thought why not try a custom mod after the root.
I decided to try Hybrid MooDeD JB-ICS 100.0.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526717
I followed all the instructions to the letter and made the install.
The phone asked for reboot and when it rebooted it got stuck at Sony logo.
I checked the thread a little bit more (my fault for not checking all before but in my defence it's 101 pages..) and it seems it's kernel is based for .431 and I was using .587.
So now, I can't enter the flash mode nor fastmode and the phone is stuck at sony logo.
Help please...
can you enter recovery if yes then flash appropriate rom
and also try to remove battery for 30 or more sec and connent phone while holding back button to get in flashmode or search to get in fastboot
Have you tried flashtool to flash it to 4.1.B.0.587 ?

OP: How come you can't access flashmode or fastboot mode? Then you are doing something wrong. Besides, problem is that you didn't install proper custom kernel for the ROM.
And previous ROM has nothing to do with it, doesn't matter which ROM you had earlier, new one will install and delete/replace all the files.

I realise that. I put all the info up to OP so that ppl won't waste time by asking me what happened exactly.
Nevertheless, I really can't access flash/fastmode at all. I tried removing the battery and start clicking all the things before putting the battery back on. But nothing happens. I just see the sony logo.

Yes I did read all post but for your kind information if you can boot upto se logo most probably you can get in recovery.... And he cannot go in fast boot so taking off battery is too helpful someTimes

So as soon as you place your battery back in does your phone turn on ?
if it doesnt i think you should be able to access either flashmode or fastboot mode

When I put the battery back, nothing happens. Phone doesn't get powered up. As soon as I try the key-combo for flash/fastmode, phone starts up as if it's going to enter the modes but only sony logo shows up and gets stuck. I really have no idea how this could happen.
Damn !
hmm thats odd isnt it ? Are you sure your holding the specified buttons before pressing the power on button ? Sorry about all the Questions just making sure

if you can boot upto se logo so your semcboot is not broken
so now tell me if you could enter fastboot before you unlocked bl?
and try to unlock it again using test point method (there is also a free one with S1TOOL if you had bl unlock allowed = yes if you could recall) i recommend not to use paid one bcoz you can pay that to sony to recover it and may be after that you could get into fastboot mod
if it didn't helped try to repair semcboot or trim area contact alejandrissimo for that it also follows testpoint method and its free
i think now only way to connect phone to pc is using testpoint!!!!!

Xperia S Fastboot problem

So I was about to root my Xperia S and started reading a guide, it said that I would need to load some files into the phone using fastboot. After a while I figured out how to fastboot and managed to get the popup on my computer once, however, I didn't install it that time and now when I try to fastboot again I get the blue LED on my phone, my computer makes some noises indicating that something unusual have been conected, nothing happens and the phone shows the Sony logo.
Does anybody know how to fix the problem and get the popup on the computer to re apear.
I run a 64 bit windows 7 home premium.
Thanks.

I don't have anything from flashTool. The guide I used is this: AddictiveTips . com and searched for Root xperia S (it's the one that doesn't say gingerbread.) if that can help in any way.

So for Unlocking Bootloader You have to use fastboot mode.. ok
and after that, for rooting it should be done using flashtool in fastboot mode..
so here is the thing.. Download The Flashtool first And After extracting the files You'll Find a Folder Named Drivers.. first Install The Fastboot Drivers Even To Unlock The Bootloader..

Hi,
I can't connect my phone in flashmode nor in fastboot mode. Whenever i connect it in flashmode/fastboot mode my PC stucks(hangs) and i have to restart it again i have installed all the drivers for all devices but still the problem exists. Any help in this regards???
Also to mention i'm using Windows XP SP3 and flashtool version is 0.9.1.0.
I have also one more issue when i connect my phone to the charger when it is switched off the phone does not charge at all it simply shows me the sony logo and keeps showing it again and again but never charges. In short when my battery is complete i cannot get it back to life due to this problem but thank god that i have installed CWM on my phone.
Thanks for helping i'll also post this in the development section also.
I have no idea to your problem, but I would guess that it have something to do with you using xp, or maybe some damage on your phone.

Hello I have an Xperia S, with bootloader locked and recently installed a ROOM in order to get the 6.A.1.2.55 with root.
Installed from a ZIP from recovery mode following this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2009672
Now when I try to do step 7 (flash kernel and Baseband) Using Flashtool, Im unable to enter to the mode; when the windows prompts me, I turn off the phone, press and hold Vol up connect the USB but nothing happens, only the Sony Logo and then the icon of charging battery, I also tried to turn off the phone while holding Power button + Vol up (at the same time) and get the 3 vibrations, but the same result when I connect, the logo and the charging animations/icon..( no LED of any color or anything)
Im using the latest Flashtool version (0.9.9.0) with the drivers intalled (even though Windows security constantly pestered me about not being able to identify the source and signture) on Windows 7 64 bits..
Thank you..

HELP Needed - Sony Xperia M Dual on BootLoop after Bootloaded Unlocked

hi guys, need some help here. I'll try to keep this short and precise to describe how i ended up in the problem
i did not have (and do not have) any custom recovery installed before this day, never needed to go in recovery mode.
1. Root using TowelRoot app (no problem so far)
2. Installed SuperSu app (no problem so far)
3. Unlocked bootloader using Fastboot and followed official sony guides
---after unlocking the bootloader, phone went in bootloop. It can go in Fastboot mode. It can go in FlashTool Mode, but when I tried flashing FTF file, it ended up in boot again. instead of Sony logo + colourful animation. now it's stuck at sony logo only.
I tried using Sony PCC, to repair it but it says there's any error, can't proceed - it's a dead end.
Do you think it's cause I actioned in incorrect order i.e. should have unlocked bootloader first before rooting?
Thanks for all the help/advices/direct links.

What model xperia do you have?
What did you do to your phone? Did you try and flash a boot.img or something.
Need more detail to help fix.
Maybe power off your phone. Hold down vol- as you plug USB cord and maybe PC companion will then see you phone
Or maybe
Download the phones firmware as a .ftf file
Flash firmware with flash tool.

I Have the Sony Xperia M (C1905)
I try to put the cyanogenmod android 5.1 and i was following a tuturial in youtube and i have made some mistake or i not did well the flashboot and for some way my phone its looping in sony logo, i unlok the bootloader and now the pc companion dont let me recovery the phone because have a unknow software installed....
exists some way do recovery the boot and the original software without pc companion?
I am very greatfull for the fast response and disponibility to solve this problem!
You said you unlocked the bootloader. Did you replace the boot.img? If so have you been able to get into recovery by holding VOL + while phone starts?
What video did you watch on YouTube and how far did you get?
Unlocked bootloader
Replacing boot.IMG (OK installed recovery)
Enter recovery and flashed ROM.
Have you tried turning your phone off. Open up PC companion. Then connect up your phone while holding VOL - down?
Read the following link it'll guide you through recovering your phone with flash tool.
