Help, my ZL is dead - Sony Xperia ZL

Hello, im from chile. My english is very bad so tell you the version of someone else having my problem, but with Xperia ZL.
Hi my Sony Xperia ZL is stuck in a bootloop and there seems to be no way to fix it.
Context:
Firmware: Generic 1270-7584 10.3.1.A.2.67 R2B.
"" The phone was working perfectly. I needed to use Google Maps as a GPS (voice guidance mode) and there seemed to be no problem. After 5-6 minutes the phone restarted. I assumed it was nothing so started Google Maps and voice guidance again. By the moment I was arriving to my destination the phone started bootlooping.
Here's what I tried: Reset button, PC Companion, SUS, Flashtool.
- Reset button: worked once, after a few minutes the bootloop started again and the reset button doesn't fix it anymore.
- Sony PC Companion: The "repair" option does it's job, meaning that it seems to complete the update flawlessly. When I turn on the phone it starts booting but when Android starts to load I get the "Process System is not responding" message.
There's not much I can do before the phone restarts. Once it restarts it enters in Bootloop again loosing functionality on every startup. By the third or fourth startup the only thing the phone loads is the Unlock homescreen.
- Flashtool for xperia (Emma): Useless. There's nothing for my phone version there.
- Flashtool: Seems to flash the selected ftf but the bootloop is still there with the same "Process system is not responding" message. ""
In my case, the phone died after using whatsapp... but is the same
someone help me please :crying:

First: Did you installed android sdk (you'll install google usb drivers and sdk plataform), xperia Z drivers and downloaded the last version of flashtool ?
Second: boot the phone on (it will bootloop right?), now press the yellowbutton until it vibrates 3 times.
This is happening? If vibrates 3 times, probably you can save your phone. I'm at work and can't help you right now, send me a email ([email protected]) or private message.

friends, my problem was the motherboard, that was broken...
I send my phone for service and they gave me a new one free!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:
thanks for everything

ROM Upgrade problems - Device dead? HELP please.

I am a rookie at upgrading this stuff. I have a QTEK 9000. I got UNI_QTEK_13077_176_10900_WWE_Ship.exe from the ftp site.
1) Did a device reset.
2) Connected via active sync.
3) ran the program.
After a short period, The device shut off and active sync disconnected.
The screen is black. On button does not work.
I tried a hard boot and I get the boot menu and 0 or x does not seem to do anything.
Did I do something wrong? What now.

I think that program is supposed to be run after you've removed USB from the connection methods in activesync - i.e. you're not connecting via activesync, even though the device is physically connected.
OK, I tried the process again without activesync.
That seems to be the answer. ROM Is now installed. I just have to finish up.
Thanks alot,
That scared the hell out of me.

Sorry for my silly question but how can you process it without activesync, mean you have removed activesync form your conputer?, because my activesync is automatic running when the computer start up
Thanks,

You're just telling AS to ignore the Exec when it's connected. The PC itself still sees it and adds a driver on connection. So you're not removing AS from the PC as such.
i have same problem but it doesn't work

Did you try the AS thing above?
First off what do you on the screen of your device when you turn it on? Is it in boot loader screen, a black screen with text that says boot loader mode and serial?
If it is in boot loader screen and it says serial on the bottom, when you plug in the USB do you see the "serial" text change to "USB"?
I had this problem with mine. I upgraded my Qtek9000 with the new orange ROM and when the process finished I was still in the boot loader screen and could not get out of it. I had to re-flash it back to the Original Qtek ROM which revived the devices. I then started the ROM upgrade process all over again which resulted in a successful flash.
If you can answers some of the questions above I can try to help.
BTW, the upgrade process takes about 20-25 minutes. if it was any less then that you unplugged the device to early.
Plug device in.
• Start ROM upgrade process.
• The device will turn off and go into boot loader mode (the computer will lose connection to the device and unrecognized USB devices error will appear in your task bar).
• Wait until the device reconnects to the computer and the ROM upgrade starts.
• This process will take 20-25 minutes.
• Reset the device with option 0 (erase all data)
• The device will boot normally and go through the extended ROM application installs. It will ask you to reset again.
• After the second reset you are done.
xda exec upgrade (dead phone)
tHIS ALSO HAPPENED TO ME (IT WAS PRETTY SCARY) . i DISCOVERED THAT I COULD GET IT LIVE BY PRESSING THE LIGHT BUTTON THE POWER BUTTON AND THEN SOFT RESET (THIS IS THAT BOOT MODE) .
THEN I RE-CONNECTED TO MY PC AND RE COMMENCED THE UPGRADE...WORKED FINE. I HAD ACTIVESYNC RUNNING WHEN I DID THE INTIAL UPGARDE, PROPBABLY THE PROBLEM!! :wink:
none of this worked....may be I am not doing it right
when I try to add hard-reset all I get this is this:
"press 0 to restore factory default"
"press X to exit"
When I run the rom update, I get device connection problem error message and sometimes the country id error message.

my yahoo and msn id is bmlsbr...please someone chat with me and provide some help. I feel helpless after spending all the money and the phone dead after i day of use.
please...........
here is what I am getting
I can not turn my device on at all.
I'm unclear to what you are saying. First you tell us that the device does not turn on. Then you say you are getting the 0 X option. Which one is it? If you are getting the O/X option what do you see on the screen when you press 0. Do you see the device in boot loader mode? You might have to remove the battery and try the reset button after. my experience has been when the device is in boot loader mode I cannot turn it off. It always stayed on. So you might want to charge it just to make sure you have full power. I would also use the ROM loader without the country and device ID restrictions you can download it from the FTP site.
QTEK 9000 DEAD
I was always able to get the hardware reset menu..but nothing happened beyond that.
Now the phone is working after multiple tries to put the rom. But active sync won't work. Any clues????
What do you mean by works? Did you load the ROM?
Have you tried to follow these instructions:

Seems to work for a few people.

Difrent SFB
try usuing difrent sfb f.
have similar problem at some time...
just try using another sfb and do factory reset each time
yea.. some sbf have higher or lower on img version which might prevent your phone from fully flashed.
I tried various different FW from here. Everytime the same results. Today I was bring phone to Vodafone, I wonder on verdict
you said you tried all firmware versions, can you try diffrent RSD Lite version, may be RSD lite having problem. I am using " RSD Lite 4.9.msi ".
so phone is back. In report from service were Changed bad SWAP module. In used parts were 1pcs of RF board. Anyway I brought phone back to Vodafone because he cant sign in other than 3G network, and many places in our country are sill only 2G.

[Q] Would like help-problems after JB update

incoming wall of text:
I have an xperia S. It had the international/generic ICS on it and i was very happy with it...(im in the UK on giffgaff and this seems to be the best for me)
a few days ago on a pc forum i read that sony had finally released JB for my handset, there was some arguing because it didnt show up when trying an OTA update but the advice was to plug the handset into a pc and use the sony update companion program.
I went through the process to update to JB using this method but when told to reconnect the phone my pc bluescreened; in total it bluescreened 5 times on the trot and my phone seemed to be 'in limbo'.
realising from the stop message in windows my rear usb 3 ports were the problem i plugged the xperia into the 'normal' front usb 2 port and tried it again- this time the process completed and i thought that all was well.
of course all is not well but im hoping its easy enough to fix. The problem is i randomly dont get any notification sounds.no whatsapp,calls,texts, twitter mentions... nothing; then i get home and take the phone out of my pocket and the led is flashing and i see i have missed messages etc.
so my question is how to fix it, but also is there kind of a way to ..... format it.. so i have a clean slate ?? Im going to assume at some point i will need to flash it with..something; what if anything will i lose (and therefore need to backup) will i be able to save things like my poweramp prefs and playlists ??
thankyou for any help, i have tried to include everything i feel might be relevant.

Huawei G520-0000 problems

Hello all,
I have a Huawei G520-0000 bought from China and tried to follow this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343580
I successfully rooted the device but when I tried to copy the following files :
OneTime Initializer.apk
GoogleLoginService.apk
Google Services Framework.apk
Setup Wizard.apk
Gmail.apk
in root\system\apps and then rebooted, android is now completely bugged.
I'm stuck at the "Welcome" screen and whenever I try to do something else, I have the folowing error "The Setup wizard has stopped" (My device is in french so sorry if it's not completely accurate).
I cannot start in recovery mode and I cannot modify the debug USB option...
Any ideas about what should be the next step ?
Thanks !
Brick Huawei G520-0000
Recently I flashed Huawei G520-0000 using CWM recovery with custom ROM I’ve got it from the internet after too many failure times trying to install official firmwares from Huawei support area (it starts unpack in the step 1 then after a while says failure, I tried many firmwares UPDATE.APP, but it was the same thing, so ended me up using custom ROM), after finish flashing the phone with this custom ROM ended up with starting the phone with green background and blue, red squares in center of the screen.
Now the phone stuck at this case and doesn’t continue booting up only frozen and if I rolled the battery out for 5 seconds then put it back and hold volume up and down in the same time the phone goes to the purple screen if there is SD card (dload, UPDATE.APP is located on the SD), it shows progress and the progress stuck at 35%
Any suggestion will be strongly appreciated
Problem resolved

[Q] I Can Not Open My Sony Xperia M?

Hi. I am new at this forum.
Actually my sister was using this phone(C1905). When she was using, the phone suddenly stopped. The phone said: 'Xperia stopped working' or something like that. Anyway when we try to open the phone a message disappeared like 'Type password to decrypt storage' but she did not lock the phone with a password.
I tried to reinstall the software with PC Companion but PC Companion failed. It showed me an error message like 'Failed internet connection'. I disabled firewall, I restarted my computer, I tried a lot of things but did not work.
I tried flashtool too but I always got this message 'Processing of kernel.sin finished with errors'. I tried 3 different .ftf files but same message disappeared again.
Any idea what the problem is?

It would seem that your NAND memory has failed. You would require a motherboard replacement. Your best bet would be Sony warranty, if you have not run out.
