[Q] Possible hard brick - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

So I just flashed my Xperia s to 4.1.2, version 6.2.B.0.200 in order to try out Trinity Vengeance RaptorXT v2.2 but the servers are down to download the rom. So after looking about I found an different version "Trinity Ultimate Kernel RipJawsZ Edition V2.2A TUX" so I downloaded it from here followed all the steps from here. Phone then switched off and I havent been able to get it back on since.
I have tried a hard reset holding power + volume up + volume down until it vibrates 3 times in succession but nothing.
Tried plugging it into PC but no led light appears.
I really dont know what to do.
Thank you to anyone that can help.
Edit: If I hold the volume down button while phone is plugged into PC the LED flashes green and a noise is made by PC as if a device has been plugged into PC but no pop-ups or notifications appear. After pulling out usb from pc whilst LED was on windows installed SEMC flash device.

Solved reflashed it to JB whilst green light was flashing and it came back on!

[Q] Arc S stuck at black screen after flashing kernel for CM10

Hi,
I´m used Jelly sandwich 9.0 with Rush kernel 10 on ARC S. Today I flash kernel for CM 10 with flashtool, as I wanted to flash that ROM.
When I´m tried to strart phone with power button, phone vibrate and nothing else happened, stuck on black screen. I can´t go into CWM, or in to flash mode with back and volume buttons. In Flashtool there is message that device is disconnected. When I tried to start it again, nothnig happens. When I pull of battery and tried to start phone, phone only vibrate, and that´s all.
Can anyone help me?
Is the phone recognized by Windows when you plug it in?

No
Try switching it on and holding down the button that gets you into flash mode. I think it's the back button but I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. The LED on the side where the power socket is should turn blue. if/when it does then plug it back in and see if Windows detects it and if so reflash the kernel (perhaps a different CWM one for the moment).
Or try the above with it already plugged in.
BTW I had something similar happen and Windows would not detect it. I plugged it into another PC/laptop and it detected it. Might also want to give your PC a shutdown/restart if you don't have access to another PC.
Sudenly, I menage to put phone in flash mode with back/volume buttons, and flash another kernel in ftf. Now everything is OK.
After I have this problem I put phone on charger (before that battery was on 40%), thinking that maybe this flashing of kernel drain battery to 0%, that phone couldn´t started.
Thank´s anyway.

The reason why i don't want to do it because if i did it my phone will be cheaper because it will called "Fixed Phone".
Now i got the first logo again while it's connected to the PC , i tried to press VOL- but flashtool didn't detect it and came dead again.
Maybe the next time i can get into recovery , but what can i do?​

Last updates:
All what i can get ofter connecting to PC for a long time is the device start up and show Sony logo then the logo disapear and reboot then do it again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again then stop booting and got dead.
Edit 1: When it show Sony logo i tried to press VOL+ and connect the usb but no fastboot , the same with flash mode.
Edit 2: When it start rebooting wave again i tried to press VOL+ and - then it got stuck with black screen , Flashtool can detect it in USB debigging off mode and it can't be turned off with the 3 vibrates trick.
Edit 3: By removing the sim card the phone turned off. Now back to the first stage with only red led and after long time connecting to PC it show Sony logo then reboot.​

I think: you should turn off but when it trying turning off it goes brick, get stuck... i dont know you have to turn off manual ( with disassemble) and connenct usb and vol up because now it cannot be in fastboot or flash mode. or you should leave it to full discharge than it will turn off but it may take several weeks.

No problem , thank you for trying help.​
Charging for 10 hours , only red led.​
while on a loop, press the volume down button and connect it to the PC. If it doesn't work, press power+vol up till it vibrates once keeping the vol down button pressed as well. if it goes into flashmode, forget everything and flash stock ftf.
on a red led situation, hold the vol down and connect it to PC. It will show no led but keep holding it for long, it will go into flashmode

I tried that to make it restart with one vibrate but no flashmode , i will try it again with holding the VOL- before i do the vibrate.
For the led when i connect it to the PC holding VOL- the red led apear , why?​
**** **** **** **** **** **** me , whn it start the rebooting i pressed the VOL+ and = and the power bottom and it start to connect and dis connect again on MTP debugging off mode and after a while i got the green led and flash mode but the ftf waz compressed and while it's extracting the green led gone....​
Fixed!!!!
This is small guide what to do:
1- Charge your phone with PC or wall charger until you get a stable red led (Stable led not flashing led) maybe that will take hours.
2- Now connect your phone to the PC , you will find the red led back again.
3- The idea now is that your phone will auto start after some time , you need to be holding the VOL- bottom before it start up that you can get a green led and you can flash the rom with flashtool.
Some times it got start up after like 4 minuits after you connect it to PC , and other times maybe it will take like 20 minuits to start. So you have to hold the VOL- bottom almost the time and there is no problem if you let the bottom for some seconds , but be carefull that it will suddenly boot up so you have to be holding the bottom.
If you success with rom flashing , connect your phone to the charger and wait until it will start first time and get dead , then start again normaly ​
Charge ur phone with wall charger (its faster than pc) until u get green led. After that, hold Vol - and connect the phone to pc.

[Q] Xperia ION Turned off normally. Now no boot

Hey guys, was using my xperia ion and downloading some stuff and the battery was low and it turned off. I plugged it back into the charger the normal red light showed up. My power button is broken so i have to press the volume up key while i connect it to charger and phone thinks its connected to a computer in flashmode and boots up but this time it didn't boot up. I tried doing it again and again and nothing happened . Then i connected it again and no LED was there. Since then i'm trying to put it to charge.LED is not turning on and neither is the phone turning on. I don't know what happened. Can u help me ?
My phone was on Stock 4.1.2 and was rooted without a recovery and was working absolutely fine before it turned off. Please help i really need the phone up soon it had my projects and yeah one more thing. When i connect my phone as it is it shows SEMC flash device in Device manager without pressing any button. What do i do now ?

(SOLVED) Screen doesn't turns on after flashing a rom

Hello, after dirty flashing Jaguar 8.1 latest version I've noticed the battery indicator wouldn't decrease, stuck at 98%. So I did a reset, and after that the screen didn't turn on anymore. Tried keeping power pressed, vol + or - and power, nothing would produce a thing... No vibrate, no led indicator, nothing. The only think working is Windows making that noise when you connect a device to usb (phone cable). I've tried re-flashing stock rom with qfil and it worked (it seems the phone is in the download mode for recovery), but nothing changed, screen still doesn't pop up... I am desperate, since I've tought that after a QFIL flash there was no way it wouldn't come back to live... but it didn't !!!!
Any help is welcome!
SOLVED: opened the back cover and disconnected the battery. Now I will have to reinstall everything just because of this damn bug... I really hate this... but at least I didn't loose my phone.
