I turned the mobile off as normal, turned it back on this morning and the screen came on, showing the logo. I then fully charged it, turned it back on and it then went past the logo onto the wavy colours, but it's now stuck on that?

[Q] HELP! My Xperia Play Died!

Help! I think My Xperia Play died on me! Here's what happened. It may be a long post but PLEASE bear with me. I really need your help guys! My phone was just lying around on my desk and I decided to use it and was surprised because it won't unlock. So i thought that my home button was just malfunctioning and tried to slide it's game pad as it unlocks the phone by itself but still no respond. So I thought it turned off by itself and when I tried to turn it on, it won't turn on at all because there's no short vibration. Usually when we turn on our device, there's a short vibration right? So I removed the battery, placed it back again and turned on my phone and at last there's the short vibration. But after a while I noticed that the boot splash hadn't appeared yet. I waited for a couple of minutes but still nothing happens. When I turned it on again there's the short vibration and that's it. So I searched for solutions here on XDA and on the web and I tried almost all of it. I flashed it back to it's stock firmware using Flashtool and still the same. I tried using PC Companion and Sony Ericsson Update Service but still to no avail. I also relocked it's bootloader and reflashed everything again but nothing works. So I gave up because I thought it might be a hardware issue but I didn't drop my phone or anything so i don't know what went wrong.
Then the following day I decided to check on my phone again and to my surprise it's back to normal and I was really glad about it. So I didn't flash any custom ROM and Kernels because I'm afraid that it might screw everything again. I just rooted it and completely debloated it and installed init.d support for stock kernel. I flashed CrossBreeder and RTMixManager and modified it's systemui for quick panel and battery % mod. I also flashed custom boot animation and that's it. I was happy about my phone because it seems all is well.
But yesterday when I was about to use my phone, the same thing happened again! I tried to redo everything I did all over again but still nothing! I can still use it in flashmode and fastboot though. I also tried entering CWM Recovery. After I turned on my phone I spam pressed volume down and blue LED showed up with the vibration if you enter recovery mode but there's no display. Can anyone tell me what's the problem? It might be the flex cable or the digitizer but I don't know. Has anyone encountered the same situation as mine? Please help me! I don't know what's wrong with my phone!
P.S. I can't send it to Sony Centre as my warranty is already expired. My only option is buying a new Xperia Play. Because I browsed for replacement parts on the web and they don't ship it directly to my country and it costs too much if I have it ship to me indirectly.
You have a hardware failure, I see that right now is very common, you will need to replace the automatic light sensor, to get it working, or if you don't want replace it, you will have to switch onto JB, because it has ALS disabled by default.

You could try using this app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hatcyl.android.Disable_Auto_Brightness&hl=en , but i don't think thats the issue personally.

[Q] Boot problem with my p6

Hey guys,
I was running blueandroid custom rom on my p6 and it was all working fine. suddenly my phone shut down and since that moment i can't find a way to turn it on further then the huawei logo. pressing all three buttons for the forced update doesn't work. and i can't get in recovery. It simply doesn't make it till that point. sometimes it shows a random color (the whole screen) but most of the time it just shuts down at the huawei logo... i also tried fastboot but it doesn't get recognized...
could anyone help me?
i'd really aprecciate it.
Are you able to use adb?
If yes, try to flash twrp recovery via ADB.

Is your p6 low on battery? If it is, charge it up before trying to get to recovery.

It doesnt charge ( the led doesnt turn on and im pretty sure that doesnt) and i havent been able to try adb. Its also quite strange that it wont be in a stable recovery mode ( or fastboot mode) since it turn itself off after 10/20 seconds.
getting really lost
So guys,
i'm really starting to think i need to bring mine to the service center cus it's completely dead.
it won't charge, it doens't get into recovery mode, i can't flash the official firmware with the sdcart/dload/update.app way, i can't fastboot it cus it won't go in fastboot mode (the way it get stuck on the splash screen/huawei logo), and it shuts itself down after 20 seconds leaving nothing else then a black but brightened screen.....
i'm afraid i have to take full costs due my root and custom rom, if they can fix/see it at all.
it worked fine after all and shut down with no reason what makes me think this is a hardware problem.
does anyone else have any suggestions before i bring it to the service center?
thanks
Let it charge for 24 hours,see if you can turn it on after that.

But thats's ok, this is a common android problem, but some phone must be charged for al least two days, and after that try to flash another ROM. Even if the led is not always on, let it for a long time to charge, trust me, the power will be inside your battery, not full but enough to resist/handle a new ROM flashing.

Yea i know that... But it doesnt show the led when i charge it (so the led has nothing to do with the charging state of the phone), only in some cases when i try to boot into recovery. And the battery cant actually be totally empty, it was 40% when it totally crashed so i dont think thats the problem. And if so, it should at least get to the point where it is trying to flash the original firmware

Im trying to flash it thru the sdcard with the update.app in sdcart/dload/update.app but to do that, you have to put in a certain mode (by holding vol+ and vol- and the power button) . But once again, i cant put the phone in A state, doesnt matter which state. It just wont get in a stable mode. Thats why i cant use fastboot/adb

That button combination if for internal storage dload folder. Put your ROM on the sdcard. Enter CWM or TWRP and flash it throu there.

Bringing it back
So guys,
Im going to the service center in 8 hours since my phone is completely DEAD. It doest charge and it does not even react to the power button anymore... (Probably cus the battery is completely drained), it doesnt react to anything else either (usb, power net, anything) and will nog be able to fix by connecting it thru a computer. Aka its hopeless...
Thanks for the support
Ive been to the service center, got a new phone directly, so everything is solved. For the information, my problem was a (like i expected) hardware problem, and there was NO way to fix without replacing hardware.

[Q] bricked xperia ion after flashing firmware

So.. my xperia ion kept said there was new system update. Which was 6.2.b..221 i think. But i unlocked the bootloader so i had to flash firmware on computer. So i downloaded on website where it said lt28h/lt28i latest firmware. I flashed it and my phone went reboot loop. It turns on, show sony logo, went blackscreen, reboots and repeat. So i did hard reset which made situation worse. I let it drain for 3 hour and charged it for 5 hlur.(red led showd right when i put charger.) It got on charge screen but i was stupid, hoping it to turn on normally and be my friend forever as it used to. But got on reboot loop again so i did soft reset because i didnt want let the battery drain for long time and charge it again. But it stuck at blink screen. Or black screen. You know how does this screen look like? It's not real black but the screen has little bit of light. So i could even use it as mirror.
I drained it overnight and now im charging it again(red led shows right when i put charger)
Anyone please help?

Yes, You have to connect immediately to pc. Don't let it be in continuous bootloop, it will drain out the battery. Did You try downloading a different ftf and flashing?

I don't know much about carrier firmwares, I would recommend waiting for someone who knows to reply. But I don't think flashing a world generic firmware would do any harm, still wait form someone to reply!

my friend came back alive! thank you!
for those who got same problem like me
[IMPORTANT]
(make sure you get battery with thunder icon on the screen when you charge your ion after it died.(it will appear after battery got charged enough. it took me about 1hour i think.
make sure the screen goes off when unplgued from charger.
DO NOT touch anything before you boot into flashmode or fastbootmode otherwise you gotta drain the battery and charge it again!
1.download your device's firmware and put it into flashtool/firmware. in my case,(lt28i) i downloaded 6.1.E.3.7 stock frimware on xperia ion development section.
2.run flashtool,click thunder icon,click okay,select firmware that you downloaded and click flash. it will say it's preparing for flashing and say boot your device into flashmode.
3.NOW. Carefully. really Carefully press only volume down button and keep press it until you connect your device to computer. this is where i messd up and startes over.
4.there will be green LED if you got into flashmode. than the onlything you have to do is wait for the flashtool to finish flashing.
5.when it's done, take a deeeeep breath, disconnect, and press power button till you feel one single vibrate.your device will reboot and work as it used to!
i didnt lose any data(in every storage like built-in storage(?) or sdcard? and ext sdcard.) except that the apps that i installed was missing.

Glad I could help. Only Your "system" and "data" partition would be formatted, not the internal(sdcard) and external(extsdcard) memory.
And "data" is where Your apps are installed, so those will go too.

[Q] Xperia ZL Loops on Sony Logo (Tried Everything)

Hello everyone
I have been a silent follower of xda from past 4 to 5 years and never had to ask for help
as I could figure out my way through when i get stuck untill now
My Xperia ZL loops on Sony Logo
My phone does enter FLASHMODE and FASTBOOT mode and im able to flash ftf Firmware without any errors in flashtool
but when it asks to unplug and restart my phone i get the same loops
I have tried yellow button Soft reset (stays in a loop after reboot)
i have tried yellow button Hard reset (Powers off after 3 vibrations)
I gave it to sony service here in India(Hyderabad) they are suggesting me to replace the motherboard which costs 24,000 INR/-(Seriously?)
i bought the phone 2 years back for 29,000 INR/- and now they want me to pay 75% of the price I strongly believe they follow their blind
rules of pushing the customer to go for motherboard replacement if they are not able to revive the phone after basic software flashing
but i still believe i can recover my phone if all the gurus out here can help me out
The phone still didnt go dead till now(some battery left may be still looping) ill try once again if the battery dies completely
EDIT:1
Tried flashing New 5.02 lollipop ftf, after successful flashing with no errors
unplugged it and tried to turn it on
Now red LED flashes 3 times but the device doesnt start
connected it to a wall charger and now i can see the kernel charging screen with battery symbol showing the charging
after some 7% charging indicated i tried to start the phone and the same inevitable loops with sony logo come back
Just plug it in and let it charge for a couple of hours, if it still bootloops, try Sony's Flashtool EMMA. I know people say it's ****, but it fixed my phone when I was in the same position as you.

Ill give it a try once again and let you know
is there any other way to flash cyanogen mod if not from recovery
thanks in advance
EDIT: Tried flashing CM
If i let the battery die till i get red led flashing 3 times

Have you even tried to flash any .img file containing TRWP using flashtool? plus, when connecting the USB cable, use the white button under the cover to turn it off, then on, instead of the normal power button. After these steps, flash a NEW .ZIP rom Usin TRWP

CAUTION: IT IS FOR XPERIA Z >BUT IF U KNOW CORRECT POINTS THEN TRY IT for ZL on your OWN RISK.
otherwise as i said try to replace whole battery will have more chances to bring back to life.18-20 $ will be enough.

sony service centre ! They never do repair on z series.If it's in warranty drop it on service centre .they will give you a refurbished phone.
IF warranty is over you can ask them .But i m 100% sure they don't do repair as many other countries.Depends where you live.
you can do it on your own @ your own risk.Remember battery is slightly glued underneath the screen.
Always remember to order battery with that cables and connection.
Sorry for long reply .But in this kind of matters we are frustrated & you don't want to waste money & our phones.
use button
use the tiny button beside sdcard press that untill 3 times vibrate and hold button vol down in flasmood mode
Try boot with USB cable connected to 1.5A+ charger with good cable.
No Hope guys tried everything im pretty sure its battery problem but the service center guys dont want to listen to me at all
all they want me to do is get it replaced for a new phone for 24,000 INR (360$) are you kidding me? for a Xperia ZL
Im even ready to give away the phone if someone wants to help me out
I have the same problem with my ZL. Service center refused to replace the battery, so I asked someone else to do it. That however didn't fix the problem. When I push at the back between the flashlight and XPERIA the phone will switch off. When I disconnect the battery and connect it again it will start-up again. I removed the screw below the camera module, as fastening that one also made the phone turn off. There is something wrong with the motherboard. I always had my phone in a flip case and it didn't even have a single scratch on it. First time it went of was while making a video. Possibly overheating caused this problem or damaged a circuit at the motherboard. Very disappointed, phone was just 2 month out of warranty, first time off was within but that doesn't count.

I was in the same boat as you with my refurbished ZL. Flashed anything, doesn't boot. Then battery full drained and only red light. Service told me it's motherboard circuit. I didn't lesten them, bought cheap battery and replaced it by myself: and Xperia worked like a charm but only 3 months ))) New (cheap) battery got trouble on GPS route suddenly. And phone worked only with power cord connected, shutdown without. New battery will again fix it )

Hard brick problem

I've a big problem... my phone won't turn on, won't charge (and no led) but is not totally dead.
The problem has happening after install TWRP with Autorec on V30B firmware, i reboot my phone and nothing... My phone won't reboot, just turn off.
Since, there is no vibration when i press start button, no DL mode when i connect to the PC (and hold volume up) but, sometimes i can see boot logo during 3 second and nothing anymore, just a black screen. When i remove the battery and i plug it, the phone shows me a logo which indicates the battery is removed.
I plug my phone during 10 minutes, but always nothing...
If someone can help me, i would be so gratefull
Used twrp for marshmallow or lollipop and your phone version is what?
Give this a try: http://open-freax.fr/guide-unbrick-your-lg-g3/
If that does not help I guess there is nothing you can do.
did you check that you have TWRP? Try to enter recovery since you can see the logo and you certainly flashed recovery. Main thing is that you flashed wrong boot and can not boot system.
Check this post from autoprime.
