Xperia Neo L has same hardware as Xperia Play. That is the reason I am posting this thread...
I have managed to brick my phone very well.. it won't show bootload logo itself..

First phone was not going into fastboot mode.Even when I press vol down button its taking to flashmode(green button)
So I flashed stock firmware with its kernel.. now also it was not taking me to fastboot.. so I did "adb reboot bootloader" phone booted into fastboot
then I flashed a JB kernel... then its gone... no lights turn on.. not even bootloader logo is shown....does any one has solution... or I better take it to sony for fix... pls help

Working
Its Seus who helped... I managed to flash stock now working fine...

first i'm sorry to hear that
umm.. as i know to enter fastboot mode you should press search button (not volume down button)
from your story its probably out of batery, so may be you can charge it a while or try it with another batery
btw have you try to reflash it with stock ftf??

Hold the volume down and power button until the phone boots into the bootloader, scroll down and select recovery, and try reflashing the rom??

Press thunder button
Select flashmode
Select ftf
Press flash
It will ask u to connect ur phone in flash mode
Now switch off phone, connect the usb wid volume down button pressed
This will work I guess

There is easier way :
1.Turn off phone by long hold power button + volume up
2.Download Sony Updater Service program from http://software.sonymobile.com/emma/install_packs/Update_Service_Setup-2.13.4.20.exe
3. Install program and follow instructions.
Good luck

[Q] Xperia Arc S Lt18 died after flash boot.img

Hey buddies,
I have a big issue:
My Xperia arc S is rooted, I did the bootloader unlock with sucess, and, when I flashed the boot.img (I had sucess by ADB), after ask to "fastboot reboot' my device died :/
It can't be recognized anywhere (USB-PC, wall charger, vol up + usb but it doesn't enter in fastboot mode), it doesn't turn on anymore.. When I hold "power button + vol up + vol down + camera button it's vibrate, but nothing happened in display. I had just this feedback.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
Try using flashtool. Hold down "menu" key and plug your phone into the usb. You will get into fastboot mode and then flash custom kernel.
After flashing kernel get into CWM recovery. Once you get in there its easy to install the ROM you want.
Make sure you flash kernel according to the ROM you selected or else you will get bootloop.
CHEERS!!
same issue

No, you don't need to press power button.
Switch off your device(which is already in your case) then while holding down the "menu" button on your phone, plug the phone into your computer via USB cable. If blue LED lights up, means you have successfully placed your phone in fastboot mode.
If its not working then probably your device battery is empty. You will need to charge it bro. And this might be a big problem unless you have got one more arc/arc s.
Sounds like the chargemon has been corupted of wiped! That could explain the charging issue. Try vol down & plug in usb for flash mode(green led if good) connect to pc companion and repair phone, or flashtool and the rom of your choice. If not it may be a jtag job im afraid n thats pricey!!!

This phone doesnt have any Volume +/- power button trick. It ONLY has the yellow reset button. Its a pain in the A*S!
Try a few things first.
1) When you hold down the yellow reset button, are you ONLY holding it down for a few seconds, and it vibrates ONCE?
Have you tried holding it down for 10 seconds, until it vibrates TWICE, indicating it has powered off completely, and THEN try connecting it?
2) If step 1 got your phone to power off completely try:
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume DOWN button held and see if you get a GREEN L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered flash mode, in which case you can simply flash an FTF file with flashtool.
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume UP button held and see if you get a BLUE L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered fastboot. From here, as long as you have ADB and your devices drivers installed on your computer, you can flash
a boot.img or "Kernel" with a fastboot command in a command window (fastboot flash boot boot.img). The easiest way to get a kernel or
boot.img with a baked in recovery is to download the latest Cyanogenmod, unzip and extract the boot.img, and flash it via fastboot.
Since you have an unlocked bootloader already, your device should be able to use an AOSP kernel.
From there you should be able to at least boot into recovery, and flash something from your SD card.
Id recommend just flashing the latest Cyanogenmod just to get your device up and running. From there you should be able to follow steps
get back to stock if thats what your looking for.
I hope at least one of these options work.
If not, like that last guy said, take it to a service center and get it checked out.
GOOOOD LUUUUCK!!

All ZL's are like that. Hold down till 1 vibration for reboot. Hold down till 3 vibrations for power off. The yellow reset button will not power on the device however. I figured I'd check just incase my power button decided to go for a sh*t.

Thank you for your help.
The cyanogenmod wiki has a mistake(or software bug in CM11) in its installation instruction for xperia m. To go to the clockworkmod menu I had to press the volume rockers after the light at the bottom turned pink and stop pressing them when the light turns light blue(a bit greenish). If I keep pressing the volume before that then it seems that the phone goes into a bootloop .
How ever i was not able to recover the official rom of sony.But i did manage to install the nightly build for CM11 .
But the phone now seems to be a little bit warmer than it used to be while using wifi. Is it ok?
Thanks again in advance.
