try fastboot....see if the led turns blue..[power + vol up for fastboot]
if it turns blue...its not hard brick...flash kernel..then flash rom

How did you flash it? If you were using PC Companion or SUS, I believe the warranty may cover that.
Otherwise, let's see...
According to Google search, the Qualcomm CPU has a built-in USB download mode, which is the "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" that you see. When the device fails to boot it will enter this mode.
Perhaps try to enter flashmode?
Pull out the battery and wait for about a minute or so.
Insert the battery, close the back cover, then hold Volume Down key.
Insert USB cable and wait for the PC to detect it.
If the PC detects it, then flash (again)!
If the PC does not detect it or it detects as "QDLoader" again, perhaps try to pull out the battery and wait longer...
If it keeps entering "QDLoader" then your phone is really hard-bricked. It may still be possible to reflash, but we don't have the drivers and files, so just send it back to warranty, whatever.
* Just by the way, I think you can also enter the "QDLoader" mode by pressing Power + Vol Up + Vol Dn?

Hi I got a similar case :/ I was partitioning my sd card with Aparted but as soon as I turned off my Xperia M to reboot it it got bricked and hasn't been working since. Cant get it to into flashboot mode or flashmode to flash the original firmware. No lights or buttons are working although when I connect it to my pc it detects it in usb but not as the phone itself. Is there anyway at all I can fix this. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

For everyone with the brick situation, do you have a locked bootloader?
I know one user said they tried the volume down+insert USB cable into the computer, you did try this with PC Companion ready to repair the software?
Sony Update Service restores the bootloader on locked bootloader phones, true? If the stock bootloader is corrupt somehow, SUS could repair it.

I am having the same issues as well, but with my Xperia V. It doesn't come up at all. It only shows the green LED when I try to fastboot or try flash mode. Please help me to resolve. I can't stand the wait for waranty to resolve. How can I still flash custom ROM?

while the phone is off connect it to pc, open Flashtool in fastboot mod. Flash a stock FW.
If that doesnt work open PC companion it should ask u to repair it if u follow istructions.
@deniel: It doesn't connect neither PC Companion or Flashtool. It doesn't enter in flashmode.

Have you pressed the menu key while connecting phone to computer?
bricked phone have to be OFF(remove battery and put back if necesaary if it's stuck at sony screen), prepare flashtool ftf and follow onscreen instruction and the flashtool will revive the phone.
Or maybe you could show the error msg from flashtool.
you are really bold in trying the untested bootunlocker, this definitely is a hard brick. hope you get out of this one.

I tried with all.
Sorry for asking again: You started FlashTool (v0.9.8.0), clicked on the flash icon, selected "FlashMode", chose a firmware for your Arc S, activated "No final verification", clicked "OK", pressed the back button on the switched off phone WHILE plugging in the USB-Cable? No green LED - nothing? Did it work before?

Sorry if we repeat the same thing, but it must work like this: you hve the phone off and unplugged. You open flashtool, select the flash icon (flashtool), select the FW, and it tell u to plug the device to pc while holdin back button.
Sure u hold the the backbutton while pluggin in? and after have selected the FW ?
You've to select the firmware first before plugging it in.

LT18i
Locked Bootloader
Root access
Had CMW via Xtools, so when I replaced the rom that disapeared!
The problem is that I've forgot to run the 2nd part - device optimization, and now the touchscreen simply doesn't work...
Can't do nothing - USB Debugging is on by default (never forget that I can't touch the phone)
Can't upload another rom via flashtool, the only thing I'm able to do is change the kernel with the 1_lt18i_4.1.B.0.431_kernelDowngrade
If I try to put the uptodate kernel, flashtool stops on "Reading Device Information"
Already try to restore it with Pc companion, but no luck
USB device is detecting LT15 on windows!
This is a total mess, I'm lost, and I've googled and tryed dozens of things all day long.. I'm tyred, exhausted, and my 2 day old ARC S is bricked!!
Can someone point me a way out??
Remember:
- USB debbug of (have no access to activate it)
- CMW disapeared when installed this rom, so have no recovery menu
- Bootloader is locked
- Can't flash rom via flashtool
I'm devastated!!
Thanks in advance,

[Q] How to unbrick Arc S LT18i no leds

I've been searching tutorials from start to finish and can't find solution to my problem.
I have a Arc S from a friend that's bricked it gets stuck on sony ericcson logo.
Tried PC Companion not detected
Tried Update Service not detected
Tried Flashtool it detects phone as connected but without developer mode
18/005/2012 14:05:49 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
18/005/2012 14:05:49 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
I hold back key, no green led
I hold menu key, no blue led
Doesn't enter fastboot mode or flashmode.
Anyone knows how can i recover it? I don't know if it's unlocked bootloader or custom firmware or anything.
I think it maybe a kernel problem but didn't find tutorial to flash it without flashtool.
Regards,

			
				
Tried that already, when i hold the buttons (either back or menu) no led lights up when i connect usb it just shows the sony ericsson logo...
Regards.
Usb debug needs to be on

From what i've been told it died overnight during an OTA update.
The only too ways the computer detects it is by getting stuck on sony logo and flashtool detecting it as usb debug disabled or by doing the testpoint and computer detecting it as a Zeus Flash Device.
All the other ways, holding buttons etc's always gets me to the stuck logo no leds no nothing.

If you can't get the Phone in flashmode as you've already stated then you need a service centre. The only other alternative is to contact Alejandrissimo or Jinx13 who have SETool and will try and help remotely.

So were you just doing a standard OTA update and then you ran out of battery?
If you want, you could try Sony's new EMMA software for returning devices with unlocked bootloaders back to stock.
Did you unbricked you phone? I have the same problem after a wipe data from clocworkmod and i am unable to go in flashmode or recovery. Fashtool detect my device but just like your with debug off...

Dear bjchettri
I do appreciate all your efforts
I have to explain the situation just to make things more clear because it looks like you misunderstand me
when I connect my phone (in all modes "Bootloader, Fastboot, normal, recovery..etc) nothing happens on my pc
even in device manager (i'm using Microsoft windows) the system doesn't show any item for a new attached device or an item for an defined attached driver (which used to appear all modes)
the flashtool needs the system to find an attached device to communicate with (usually the attached device name looks like "android phone", SE android or something this (depends on ur phone brand, model)
now since my system doesn't find any device when I connect my mobile then the flashtool won't be able to communicate with my device (even if i tried to boot my device in all modes "bootloader, fastboot, normal, recovery) by holding specific buttons (menu or volumn down or back buttons)
and if you read my question you will see that i was asking if anyone knows any way to connect my phone using testpoints or something like this because i though maybe I can let my pc to recognize my phone using the testpoints method.
I'm not sure but if i could make my phone recognized by the pc then i will have like 10 ways to find the problem and fix it.

It must be a hard-brick bro.. You should take it to the repair center..

Lets just analyze your problem:
You launched flashtool and started a flash session.And then a window appeared in flashtool saying that you have to connect your phone in flashmode. You pressed Volume+ and connected your phone.
I want to know what happened next,
Did the window telling you to connect the device in flashmode close down automatically?
Was a pop-pup shown in your pc telling you to choose your phone model?
If these didnt happen, what else did?
I can help you certainly if you can answer these questions.
How do i unbrick my phone? I can't take it to center because i have rooted and unlocked bootloader.

If it's a hard brick we can do nothing about it.
This message was brought to you from my Sony Xperia M C1905 using Tapatalk.
Finally fixed the problem. I just pulled out the battery and left it for a minute then inserted again. Now everything is working fine.

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?
