My xperia m is turning off and I can't turn it on. When the screen goes black it doesn't react to pressing the power button. I have to take out the battery and wait a few minutes to turn it on again. Does anybody know what to do???
What you did on phone? My phone goes black and power button dosnt react but i pressed shutter key and it launched camera. Try once and works fine.

when you press volume down and connect it to pc through cable
u should be in flashboot mode and seee some drivers installing
if you don't get any response from the phone then its a total hard bricked
you will need to send it to warranty or a repair center
if possible box will be able to revive it but if not your pcb needs to be replaces
Thx manzza, the day after tomorrow I will go to sony repair center which will fix my phone? I don't know what happened to me

What is the color of the LED when you plug it in? Also, if it is an R800i (GSM) version, you could try unlocking the bootloader and reflashing the device with Flashtool. Check out the development forums for tutorials on both bootloader unlocking as well as flashing.
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
gsm version, how can i flash it when it wont come on or boot and the computer not recognizing the usb device connected. the led flashes red
If it only blinks, it seems that the battery was too low.
plug in your charger, after 1 hours charging try it again.
I remember reading a thread about blinking red light. Not sure what it was now though.

Check whether the download mode appears(press vol down+home+power button)....if it appears then you still have a chance to recover your phone back.

i wasn't flashing anything...just using it normally and then tried to lock the screen but instead of locking the phone switched off....that's why am not sure whether the phone's really bricked or there's some other problem
well...it seems that your batery is empty. try to turn it on with charger plugged in.
i think it's battery problem.
try this :
remove the battery from your phone
wait for atleast 40 sec
insert it
connect your phone to charger
wait till the charging icon appears
switch it on

My Xperia Ion is stuck at Sony Logo when i switch it On.
Nothing responding.
I kept the battery to Drain and now i plugged it to wall charger i get a solid red led.
I checked all the threads related to soft/hard brick but seriously im confused big time. What should i do now ?
Now my phone has been charging for 30 minutes.
i dont know what happened , is it soft / hard brick ??
i tried to restore my cwm backup and it showed successful. And when i booted this happened.
The screen is Off sometimes and it turns on and shows SONY LOGO. what should i do ?
But when the screen is off the red led is on.
Please somebody help. I'm really panicking. i can't think properly.
Think you are on XZX. Am I right? Try reflashing the ROM.

A hard bricked phone won't do any thing no matter what is done. If a light or anything reacts then you have some level of soft brick.
Use the rubber band trick to flash back to stock.
The solid red led means low level charging. Low level charge is on until the battery level is enough to start kernel charging (battery icon screen)
When the red led goes out but before the phone turns on is the tiny time frame you have to enter flash mode. So you use a rubber band to hold volume down.
Read about the trick in my recovery thread in my signature.

Long time ago I faced a same problem. My phone stuck at RED light. I just dissemble the phone and disconnect battery cable from motherboard and reconnect the cable. Then I hold power button and volume + button until 3 vibrate. (10 second). Now the phone is off. After that I connect phone to computer while holding volume down button and flash stock ftf.
Give it a try.

Which screw? Star Screw or Plus Screw? If you don't have screw driver you can open Plus screw using Knife and Star screw using Minus screw driver.
DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK.

Yeah its STAR Screw. Approx 7-8 total adding both sides.
Im not gonna open it, anyways i'm giving the phone to service centre. i don't have time to wait for the battery to charge / Drain or anything.
Hope they can fix this in matter of hours.
For future reference, you will need a torx t6 ( or t5 cant remember exactly) for the star screws. The ion is easy to take apart, hope they fix yours.

Well, I got some issues with a Xperia Arc which I bought a while ago and have been working fine until now.
The issue is that the device doesn't turn on most of the time, it's just completely dead(no vibration, led, logo, fastboot or anything). But sometimes it does turn on, and everything works. But when I do turn off my device it just dies completely and I have to spend hours trying to fix it.
Anyone know how to solve this? I have tried with other Arc batteries and such, but the problem still occurs.
The phone has a unlocked bootloader (testpoint method).

It's not any loose connections, as I have opened it and checked them, and the issue seems to be with the bootloader as it boots fine at times, and as long as I dont turn it off it works fine.

So if I may suggest, Sir try relocking bootloader and then unlocking officially(if DRM keys dont matter much)

Well, the issue is still there, and the phone isn't operating properly. My phone doesn't even boot up with a microsd card inserted.
When does the phone turn on? Does it happen in certain conditions or randomly?
Are you able to use flashmode (turn off, hold down Back button, connect USB cable) or enter into fastboot (turn off, hold down Menu button, connect USB cable)?
Did you do anything specific prior to this issue?
