Xperia Play Won't boot.
I bought Asphalt 7. Was downloading and installing the game when suddenly it kind of crashed. It booted again but the screen became all glitchy. Opened the phone and saw that the flex cable died so I replaced it and booted but it didn't boot at all. When pressing the on button the phone vibrates but no screen.
Allready flashed .ftf file and updated with SEUS so the device is in stock state but it doens't boot. When pressing the on button the phone vibrates but no screen. :crying:
Help me please
Have you tried putting it on charge?

Yes i tried but no effect
What colour is the LED when you put your phone on charge?
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
Green
Are you sure you didn't mess anything else up whilst replacing the flex cable?

No i didn't. I was really carefull while replacing the flex
Please help mee
I think you didn't replace the flex properly.
I have checked it for 10 times. I have guarantee so I just sent it to Sony. I will see have tried everything. I hope they give me a new phone.

You may have bricked it. Have you tried installing any rooms lately? Consider flashing back your stock firmware with "flash tool".
I have a stock device that has never been flashed or tampered with. Does anyone know what the flashing led mean?

Leave it charging. Sometimes the battery is too low to turn on. If not, try a new battery

Didnt u read.... I used another battery in it and it didnt boot, plus I tried my battery in another xperia play and it worked!!
If it's never even been rooted, then you should take it in for repair. Maybe a hardware issue.

Maybe if he researched but oh well, this what I have and sometimes it indicates a hardware component is damaged meaning find out what it is,
you should:
Go to your phone provider and ask them do NOT MENTION ABOUT ANY ROOTING OR BL UNLOCKING.
Find out what problem it has .
Or never use it again (Dont do it)
In my case the digitlizer "Screen" is broken, because back in march I used to boot my phone and the screen wouldnt sometimes work of course there could be another problem but...
Yea I realised I tried turned it on with the battery in the wrong way. I realised it didn't come on and when I fixed the battery right it still wouldn't come on. It just kept flashing the red light only when I tried to charge via USB or wall charger

Yep
So I got a digitizer from eBay and replaced it myself. (I had a defective touch screen)
Now, I can't seem to boot past the boot screen (kernel). It would get stuck at Sony Ericsson (for stock kernels), the wolf logo (LuPuS), etc.
I've tried using flashtool to flash a stock ROM but to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas?
Bump. No one? I'm using an iPhone and.. I hate it..
Maybe you could try to reassembly the new digitizer, i've replaced my digitizer too but with frame from ebay and everything ok

Mine's with frame too. I've tried taking everything out and putting everything back in again, still the same.
Thanks though!
Must be SW problem, if you can see the kernel/boot logo.. Or the flex cable in the HW has bad contacts. But... Even flashing other ftf causes same?

May I know which is the flex cable? There is one that seems to connect the touchpad to the motherboard, I have had trouble trying to insert that cable. Might have damaged it in the process..
well my problem is that my phone no longer turns on,
Simply remove the battery
and sd and put another sd and
no longer turns on
then put the sd who brought before and not now lit on or boot,
had put the cyanogenmod 7.2.
Try to mount sdcard in recovery

I had just received this phone, and I haven't modded anything. When I got this phone, it was stuck in boot loop, and I have no idea what the previous owner did to it. He said it was a battery issue, but the battery charges and holds a charge. The phone boots, makes it to the ATT screen, and reboots. I have no idea how to boot this phone into recovery, or if it even has one (which would be pretty crappy on Sony's part if it didn't.) Is there any way this can be fixed? Also, I tried downloading flashtool and it's not compatible with my version of Windows 8 (Eval copy :/ ). Am I out of luck?
BUMP
Need help ASAP.
See if you can get into recovery by either spamming Vol up or the back button when you turn the phone on.

Hello everyone!
I have a problem with my Xperia Play. It gets stuck on the "Sony Ericsson" Boot logo when im on battery but when im connected to USB it boots up normally but the touchscreen doesnt work. And when i unplug the USB the phone shuts down itself.
I Flashed, Rooted and unlocked the bootloader but still the same problem.
Can anyone guide me on what i should do to get it fixed?
Thanks
Maybe the problem is your battery?
