Seems like you had unlocked bootloader and you tried to do OTA update. By this you soft-bricked your phone.
Fortunately, there is a solution for this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126358

[Q] Sony Ericsson Xperia Play R800i Not Booting After Updating SE Official Site

Hello,
I'm new to Android Device. I just bought Sony Ericsson Xperia Play R800i 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I was found Official Update from Sony Ericsson Site. Then I go with and after downloading update it's message me it will reboot and start again. But nothing happened. My phone was dead then. Even I tried several time to switch on my phone but a short vibrate but not booting. I'm very frustrated.
Then I research a lot and found some resource. I download Flash Tools flashtool-0.6.7.0-windows and I also download new Firmware R800i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic.ftf and R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).ftf as well as I tried Xperia_Relock_bootloader.ftf.
But nothing Happen. I'm now very upset. Is there anyone can help me to solve this issue?
This happened to me except I had my boot loader unlocked and tried to do an ota. Only got a black screen. I thought I broke it. with the help of xda I flashed ftf file and it worked. I imagine you have rooted your phone otherwise you would return it under warrenty I imagine. what you need to do its find the xda post for ota bricked unlock boot loader download the files and use flash tool to flash the file. worked for me and I thought I was boned. sorry I can't link you to the ppost but don't fear follow their directions and you'll be fine. I hope this lead you to the right post and kinda helped

Xperia Arc Boot Loop

I own a Sony Xperia Arc (purchased on June, 2011) and it doesn't work anymore without any explanation.
When I turn on the phone, it appears Sony Ericcson brand and then, mobile network carrier brand, but then, instead of appearing home, it appears again Sony brand and an infinite loop goes on.
At first,I tried to solve the problem with the Sony tools like PC Companion and Sony Update Service.
Then, I tried to do a hard reset (back + menu and power), but nothing changed (the same bootloop).
What would you do now? Would be useful trying to flash some firmware? I have been reading posts about flashing firmware, bootloader unlocking and rooting Xperia Arc, but I don't now really what would be the best move now.
For your information, I haven't applied any kind of official upgrade before, neither I have tried to root the phone or flash any custom firmware, so I had my phone as it came from factory (with Android 2.3.2). Moreover, I haven't installed any suspicious application, just typical apps like whatsapp and so on. By the way, the phone haven't suffered any crash neither wet.
I have attached the log I have taken when I try to turn on the phone (I get the same log again and again, at the end of the log it reports some problem with memory, I hope it's not a hardware problem):
Try using the Flashtool and report back. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304634

Hi,
also have the same problem.
I have the same problem.
İ have lt15i firmware. Try to install lt18i via flashtool and something broken and aborted. I tried to install LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_(1247-1041).ftf via flashtool. It said flashed but said power on turn on unknown sources and devices. When i try to power on it boot loop in Sony Logo.
I try to use CWM mode. Wipe and flash some data. Couldn't find user data files. Installed a Custom ROM when a boot animation appear its boot again to SONY logo. what should i do?
Any ideas?
In the end, I could fix the problem flashing the latest firmware with Sony Update.
Anyways, thank you very much for the advice

your hwconfig is damaged by the kernel .... you need to rewrite it with setool2.

Red LED blinks?
Charge your battery and than flash a clean stock ROM.
If you want to use CM then you need unlocked BL or else they wont boot.
Nothing is broken, its just a failed ROM install.:good:
