Bro now I'm getting red light while charging..What should I do now..how much time I have to wait and do i need to flash the stock kernal or the entire stock firmware..if so where can i find the stock kernel..

Only kernel is needed, try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024182 (maybe v1 because it's nearest to stock)

Even my phone got bricked after flashing SSpeed kernel by krabappel. You can try charging it for more time until you get the SONY logo and your phone starts bootlooping or you get a green led. You can try doing, but I don't think that you will get anything except a red led. Also, try going into either download or fastboot mode once your phone is charged and try flashing the stock kernel. If you get into download mode(green led) then in flashtool tick all boxes which say exclude system, exclude baseband ... but leave exclude kernel ticked. If you get into fastboot, flash the attached stock kernel of XSL in fastboot. Use this command - fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot kernel.sin
It is the 100% stock kernel taken from Xperia SL LT26ii's stock .55 FTF. Good luck
Also, you have to extract kernel.zip to get the kernel.sin file as we can't upload .sin files directly on XDA.

Thanks for the reply..but before my phone was dead it was running .45 firmware..is it safe to flash the .55 kernal over it..?

It should be. Btw, SSpeed is also for .55fw just in case you didn't know so I don't think that it should be a problem. Once you flash the kernel, let the phone charge for some time then go ahead and flash the entire .55 fw with flashtool.

Just check if there is some kind of a ribbon attachment or something. If not then just remove the battery and put it back in. Or else disconnect and reconnect the ribbon cable.

What do you mind is bootloop???
Well, tell us, what did you do exactly. And be more precise over your phone - what happens if you turn it on, what does it do? Any lights, anything on screen, vibrations?

Were you using your phone when this occurred?
I've got a similar problem yesterday
the solution was to boot the phone in 'fastboot' mode (keep pressing menu button then insert the usb cable), the indication light should glow in blue
then using fastboot.exe you can flash a new kernel (i used lupos kernel)

Bricked :(

I had just successfully rooted my xperia play r800i and was installing CWM. After the installation was successful, I unplugged the phone as Flashtools said but it won't start. Now it's not even being detected by Flashtools. It is being detected by my laptop only with the beep sound and nothing else.
Also my battery was around 20% while I was flashing so maybe that had something to do with it.
Waiting for help by a generous XDA member, again.
Thanks in advance!

Plug the phone in the wall charger. The phone battery will die then start to charge again. mine took about 2 full days before it showed red led. It all depends on how full ur battery was when it soft bricked tho..

I'd flash stock firmware now... You don't have to do something special. After that your phone should be working again.

Are you pressing it BEFORE you connect it ? You've got to press it before you connect it and keep pressing it until you connect it and green led appear. Because if you press it after you connected it, nothing will happen, phone will be just charging

[Q] Xperia S | Hard bricked?!

hello dudes.. i read most of the threads here i just wanna make sure i'm doin things right.
i was trying to flash the .211 firmware's kernel so i can root the new one, flashtool kept saying that i don't have the drivers and couldnt start in fastboot mode.. i tried several times, and i did a hard reset a couple of times.
now the phone won't start up at all in any mode.. no led no nothing.
the battery was about 90% before this happened..
I read about the rubber band thingy and it's been connected to pc for a couple of hours now and still nothing, what should i do?
plz help me..
is your bootloader unlocked?
also if you're flashing a stock kernel from a stock ftf using flashtool its flash mode, not fastboot

does your phone viabrate when "power+volume up" is held
if yes then unplug your XS then hold "power+volume up" till your phone buzzes 3 times, then try to flash a FW with flashtool
(take note this may take up to 60 secconds before it viabrates)
if no then please visit the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
It didn't do anything at all, but after 30 hours of applying the rubber band with no response, I hooked it to the wall charger and it gave me the red led, I waited for 30 minutes then flashed the kernel in flashtool and charged it again, then turned it on and it's back to life.
Thanks alot

I don't have it bro. But of you consider hard resetting it and charge it until it shows up red led and flashing original firmware by flashtool might help you.

i did each and every possible way..but no luck..i too disassamble my mobile and remove the battery chip but no luck...but loop is still persisting..
1.Firstly you should charge your phone for 36-48 hrs
2.don't turn it on
3.On ur pc, open flashtool n tap on flash button
4.when it asks for phone, plug your phone with pressing volume down button
5.wait for flashtool to recognize ur phone
6.then flashing will be done
Hope this will work in your case..as i had same problem before

i had this problem the other day...when the it boot loops hard reset it then leave it to charge till red led appears and then disappears...when the red led disappears apply the rubberband trick and connect your phone to your pc with the flashtool waitin to flash your phone eventually it wud go into flash mode...dont attempt to flash the system on the first try...flash the kernel then leave it to charge on a wall charger until you get a greed led and then flash the TFT fully
@fernoct @XrosMaster @prat.cena @pharix @Zorbeyd
Thanks guys for your coperation...your ideas help me a lotz... Finally had to diassamble my phone and charge via external voltage kit through powerchip..and my battery level was upgraded and I was able to rwcover my mobile back...
Once again thanks for your coperation...
