I had the same issue for quite a time, but seem to have solved it just now.
My phone only charged when the power was off. When the phone was turned on it didnt charge. So what I did was turn off the phone > let it charge for like an hour > than turn on the phone while it's loading.
Let me know if it worked. Good luck!!

Hi guys, this is sort of a last resort thing and I've read the thread with "Xperia Ion bricked. Any fix?".
Basically, I was doing the battery callibration (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1760207&highlight=battery) and so did the power + volume up button. I did this around 3 times as it went from 95% to 98% then I was expecting it to go up but it stayed at 98% so I decided to do it once more. However, instead of usually vibrating, the screen just instantly went off. Tried to power up but it didn't work. Took it off from the charger and tried all button combinations (power + volume up/down) and still to no avail.
Then I put it in the wall charger again and the LED seems to have a faint orange light coming when charging so I know it's actually charging... Then I thought it may be possible that for some reason, the battery is drained and followed the "Xperia Ion bricked. Any fix?" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771106. After around 15 minutes, the faint orange LED vanished and so I took it off the charger, did the button combinations again and didn't do anything. I put it back in the charger and see the faint orange LED...
Now it's just charging and I don't know what to do Is my beloved Ion bricked? I just got it a month ago :crying: what should I do with it?
Tried plugging it in the computer and PC Companion didn't see my device
Also I live in the UK and I got the phone from Indonesia... It still has a years guarantee but I can't go spend £500 for a ticket just to fix my phone
I'm extremely desperate, please help!
Hold power + volume up wait for one vibrate, keep holding both you should then get three vibrates in a row now turn it on normally, mine kinda did the same thing and I did this

Is the phone on? Meaning it's using power in some way (led on, screen is black but on, button lights stay on)? If so you may need to drain the battery, if the reset trick isn't working. Once the battery is dead (this can take up to 24 hours) and it shuts off, try charging it. Do not turn it on till it's charged more than halfway.

The phone is not on at all, the screen is not on, buttons not lighted or on and everything is like it's shut down. I've left it for like 24 hours now and I put it on charge just now, the situation is the same (( what do you think it is? I really hope I can fix it with patience since I've been patient since yesterday. Thanks for the reply but when I charge, the screen stays blank and the LED is not red, it is a slightly faint orange :/

Thanks for replying uchiha but I've put the phone on charge overnight which was like 8 hours and the light just goes. I'm still having this problem. I wish I could go to the sony store but I can't cause the Ion doesn't and will not come out in the UK and they have no parts for it. For now, I'll just leave it on charge for the whole day and see what happens.

The ion battery CAN'T be remove no matter what...and to TS,if your phone still can't be turn on,try to let the battery completely drain,and leave it like that for 1 hour,and after that try to charge back...
I afraid your phone thought it was 'on' but the screen is 'off' like my old x10 Mini Pro which when I turn on,it vibrate and on (yep,alive) but the screen is black BUT I can feel the touch and the vibration of the phone.To fix the problem,I remove my phone battery for 10 minutes and turn it on again,after that it works perfectly...

And how you know your USB is recognized? Are you able to start the ROM?
Are you have battery to flash custom recovery and go in recovery and charge the phone?

If no download this fastboot.zip extract to a fastboot folder and put your phone in fastboot usb start the file chargeONEX.bat the phone will start to restart a lot of times wait until you see more then 3680mv in the cmd.

Hi! Some time ago I wrote about not working volume buttons. Yesterday I left my phone connected to charger, and it was charging all night. This morning I found the phone turned off, I tried turning it on, but it doesn't do anything! Connected to PC - nothing, connected to charger - nothing, removing/inserting battery - nothing, other cables/chargers - nothing. It's just like without battery. Is there any way to fix it? Is it bricked? Few details about it: I have this phone about 2 months, stock 4.3 with root, locked bootloader, never damaged (falling into water, on ground etc.)
I'm Sorry , it's seems like bricked device

one and only option - flash stock 4.1.2 firmware with flashtool
if this does not work may be your phone is bricked.The only way is go to sony service center and act as a dumb , (dont tell them that you are rooted your device and tell them i dont know anything about rooting,etc..)so, usually they dont have much time and they'll replace you with new handset.
:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

That's tragic for your xperia and as you say you haven't done anything that may cause this problem than maybe it was like a short circuit or electrical surge which fried the phones chip and make it dead because as ansebovi said, if it would hv been bricked than it would hv flashed the led atleast.

Plug it in to charge for a while (1 hr or so), then hold down the power button + volume up for 20 seconds or so and see if it comes back to life.

afaik it doesn't make a real difference. The phone caps it's limits at its max level so its no problem to use a charger with a higher amperage like 2,5
