Hello guys, I have a Xperia S LT26i in the Italian official version of software 6.1.a.2.55 rooted by E-Root v1.0.14 ( locked bootloader )
i wiped battery stats (after wiping data...cache ...all what we can wipe, mount and unmount every thing from the clockworkmod )
i reboot the mobile from the recovery then it crash in the Sony logo it crashes in the sony logo which stays a long time i forced restart by pressing Power button+volume(+) ( tried one viration and three vibrations )
Then the sony logo appeared and won't go away.. I cant boot anything. doesnt respond to hard reset (3 vibrates)
PC wont recognize my phone.
then the same thing happened until nothing displays on the screen and the notification led litghs red lights red when I connect with pc or AC power
then the mobile doesn't turn on or start on recovery mode again and is not recognized by Windows on Flashtool or on the SEUS
i tried to remove/insert battery, waiting to battery drain, charging the mobile without results
what should I do?
hold vol - when phone is powered off and connect usb cable (led should become green), than use flashtool to reflash any stock ROM

When I hold vol(-), connect the phone to pc led become red most times and once in a way it become green for a short time then comeback to red not the time to do a full repair sony update Service or full flash with flashtool i did a successfull repair with the Sony update Service but stopped in the middle and then continued they said that's the phone is repaired successfully but i still have the problem ( won't turn on won't start recovery )
Can you try with another cable? Maybe the one you used is damaged. The phone normaly doesn't exit flashmode when recovery / repair is started.
If this doesn't help give it a try with newest flashtool, get a ftf file for stock fw .55 or any other version you want (would prefer any ICS version). Prepare everything in flashtool until you're told to connect the phone in flashmode than do so ( hold vol(-) ..., or do a soft reset and hold vol (-) with connected usb cable. If your phone enters flashmode (green led), flashtool should start flashing immediately.
Hi,
My phone is stuck at sony logo, after install a custom rom (RomAur). I have locked BL, and I put my phone into fastboot mode and im tryng to fix it with flashtool (pc recognize the phone). Can I flash a rom in fastboot? it doesn´t work into flashmode. Any help? (As you can see im new in this topics...)
Did you try download stock ftf - run flashtool - choose the ftf, when ask for the phone ... push the off button for 5s (behind the phone next to sd slot), then put the phone in flash mode (vol. down) - connect your usb, phone should flash.

Every ZL/Z is meant to work in Flash Mode, just reset the phone by holding the OFF button on the back panel where the SD-card and SIM card are placed. Disconnect your phone from the computer, hold the OFF button until it vibrates THREE times (hold it for 3 seconds it vibrates twice (hard restart), hold for 5 it vibrates thrice(forced flashmode)) soon after plug in the phone into your computer (along with the proper drivers installed from Flashtool in (or wherever you installed it) C:/FlashTools/Drivers (these drivers are SOE-blah, ADB, and fast boot mainly located at the bottom.) Once you've accomplished this, head on over to the Android Development section download a FTF file and restore. If you wish to keep all your data try reinstalling RomAur with proper installation instructions, due to my lack of experience with that rom I cannot give you the best advice other than if you have CWM installed it's an option to constantly flash other roms/zips to possibly fix your scenario. Good luck!
I'll give you more details now, about my problem.
1.- My phone was OK (rooted and with CWM) running Hackit custom rom.
2.- I install RomAur, then on reboot the phone got stuck on sony logo (it means, sony logo, and then reboot, sony logo and then reboot, infinite loop). Pressing OFF button (back next to the SD) it restarts the phone but the infinite loop continues.
3.- I installed flashtool (drivers, etc)
4.- I run the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and plugin the usb cable at the same time it puts on yellow light (i dont know what mode it is). Infinite loops stops, phone is off and battery charging icon is displayed.
5.- On yellow light then i disconnect the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and reconnecting flashtool recognize it ("28/024/2013 20:24:13 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode"). No light on the phone. If i do the same but with VOL UP it runs fastboot (blue light).
6.-On flashmode, I press the flash device button (black beam icon), it ask for mode, i choose flashmode. Then i select the ftf. and flashtool displays
28/043/2013 20:43:29 - INFO - Preparing files for flashing
28/044/2013 20:44:07 - INFO - Device disconnected
And the infinite loop returns...
If i pressthe powe off button nothing happens, it vibrates only one time, every restart on the loop
HELP! and thanks for your answers
From your comments, get to your step 5. Meaning get your phone off. Run flashtool choose stock ftf when it asked for the phone. Holding Vol.Down plug in usb - this should reset your phone and get you going.

Hello,
I think I bricked my phone
I wanted to upgrade from 4.4.2 to Lollipop http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/stock-14-6-1-236-customized-lollipop-5-t3264557
And before that I did a factory reset and format data (I got some issues on my phone and wanted to get rid of them).
Now I can not enter TWRP, I can not enter any thing. At the time beeing, after many restarts my red button is broken, I switch it off by "Power/Vol+". When I connect USB or push Power it starts and showing "SONY"-Logo, and that's it.
I can not enter flash-mode by swith off, hold Vol- and connect USB :crying:
What can I do to revive my Z1c?
Thanks for advices
BerWatch!

Do you have adb / fastboot on your computer?

Yes, I have, but can not enter my phone/don't know how to enter.
I tried switch off (by Power and Vol+), holding Vol- (the same with Vol+) and plug in USB - it starts by showing red light for 2 sec than "SONY", and than stps - no vibration, no light, only steady "SONY"
cmd shows: D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot recovery
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot recovery
error: device not found
D:\Programme\Android-Tools\ADB>adb reboot bootloader
error: device not found
Phhu, hopefully I do something wrong?!
Install these:

Power off by holding power and volume up, just wait until it turns off. When it's totally shut off, just hold volume up while plugging in cable and don't let go of volume until you see blue led. Then you're in fastboot mode. If you have drivers installed, it's very easy to get into recovery from there. Report back.
If everything fails...
Install Flashtool on your PC, install the necessary drivers (flashtool helps you with that), download the current firmware in .ftf format and apply it with Flashtool to your phone.
No worries, we all were at your point sometime but you can always recover
Thanks for your hints, folks!
I'll try them tomorrow and give feedback than.
Happened to me once.. Accidentally wiped my data..
Only thing I managed to do is reinstall kk via flashtool
Xperia Z1 Compact .386 rooted
...nothing works.
I have almost everything installed: adb.exe (800kb from 25.07.2013), fastboot.exe (157kb from 25.07.2013), Flashtool (Version 0.9.14.0 built on 12-02-2014 22:45:00), Xperia Companion (Vers. 1.1.24.0), Z1 Compact drivers (device manager says: Sony sa0109 ADB Interface Driver Vers. 2.0.10.30018 from 13.05.2013).
Nothing can connect my Win10-PC via USB3.0 to my phone, it always starts (when I connect it to USB by holding wether Vol+ or Vol-) with red (...pink?) light for about 4sec, followed by showing "SONY" - end of anything.
I'm desperate :crying:
Do you get the green led light when connected in flash mode (vol down when connecting)?
Xperia Z1 Compact LP .386 rooted
No, only red light, than "SONY" without any vibration...
May it be, that usb-debugging was off, whenn I did format data?

I don't think it's related..
Maybe you don't have the right drivers on pc?

The fastboot or flashmode mode should always work - regardless of what you did regarding ROMs or setting or wipe etc.
It is there to save your phone if you messed up.
It is strange that you cant enter these modes. Normally its really a driver issue and you PC does not recognize your phone.
But it seems that you have tried installing them already.
Just to make sure... Your phone charges normally when you plug it in right? So it cant be a broken cable or broken micro-USB connection on your phone?
Also make sure your phone is really shut down - try resetting it with the red button next to your SIM-card slot.
Your volume buttons were fine before right?

BINGO!!! ...the usb-cable, it's a pretty new one, but I know, the Z1c doesn't like every cable
Now I can enter Flashtools flash and fastboot mode.
I think I lost almost everything on my Z1c, even my TWRP, don't I?
What is now for noobs like me the best way to install this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/stock-14-6-1-236-customized-lollipop-5-t3264557

Thank you all for your input!
It was the usb-cable which did load my Z1c and in this case (no other data on the phone) light the purple LED and display the "SONY"-logo - but nothing else!
All the future problems are more on the software-side (my head) than on the hardware (the cable)...
Haha glad you sorted it out. I don't know why but I also have USB cables in my collection that just won't work with my Z1C... But now you know
If you need further help in restoring with flashtool you can also look up this thread for some helpful links : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2631291
Try to get your hands on a .108 firmware (I always keep one on my PC in case I f*** up ). They are easy to root with EasyRoot and from there you can flash dualrecovery. With TWRP you are good to access your backups or flash anything you want again.

I'm sorry but it's a "sudden death". My friend had same problem with T3 (SIM Card change). He gave it to repair (warranty).
hi every one i have a problem with my phone xz2c ... when i want it reboot he shut down and wont wake up untill i put it in charge and the same thing when i shut it down wont power on even i try all key power key +down or +up wont power on like i said untill i put it in charge :crying: :crying:
BUT when i reboot it with fasboot command (fastboot reboot) he reboot
i do a full wipe and fresh flash with flashtool and newflasher nothing help :crying: :crying: :crying:
my device still on stock firmware and not unlocked bootloader so any help for that???? and thank you....sorry for my bad english
Hi, unfortunately I have the same problem and experience with my XZ2C with locked bootloader and latest PIE fw *. 163. I did not notice that before.
I also did not find anything, what could help. I wiped and reflashed phone, it was useless and waste of time.
I also noticed, that I'm not able to start the phone when connected to PC, it starts directly in flash mode (same as POWER + vol Down). And there is no graphics in this mode also... I think, I had to select something in the 'menu' with blue (?) background to be able to flash ROM previously...
Another 'great' update from Sony?
I hope they will fix it in next (bootloader) update.
