A year ago, my Xperia M dual was hardbricked by corrupted nand memory, I'm thinking to repair it, but I don't know where to buy a motherboard
So anybody can suggest a good site to buy a cheap motherboard from it, even if it was a used part.
Thanks in advance

One day morning I wake up, I unlocked my phone and Google play services was keeping on showing force close message, so I rebooted and then phone showed that it is encrypted and asked for password...
I tried all possible ways to fix it, I tried to flash stock firmware via flash tool but it showed error 0017 as far as I remembered.
I lost hope when I found that nand memory was broken. @bonoobo is familiar with this case.

Hey, ive purchased a new xperia play that was delivered today.
Everything worked fine until i updated the firmware and now it does not recognise my, or any other SIM cards.
I get the error message "Please insert SIM card and restart your phone".
Done some googling, cant find much of any use.
Cheers in advance

If you still have your phone I suggest you update to the latest firmware, apparently the stock firmware had a bug that didn't read the sim and sd card firmware at the same time..
So try doing that and then do my advice from the previous post, it's worth a try

Is you bootloader unlocked??
What ROM or Kernel do you use?
i received an update notification when i using wifi..then i just download it and install..next it turns off automatically..after a few minutes it doesnt on.. ( i think the notification is from ''update center'' or something like that.. )

Are you sure, you used the right point?
Also, I am not sure, if newer LT18i phones can actually be unlocked with WotanServer.
I mean this point, which was written there
Only Sony Ericsson Xperia arc S mobile phones manufactured before 12W11 are supported. See sticker under the battery to read your Xperia arc S manufacturing date.

If you have the warranty, that ain't a problem.. show it to them and you will get everything for free, hopefully.
If you lost your warranty, you then have to pay.

This thing happened to me. Except for me having no luck solving it. It was bootlooping all the time after turning on the cellular data, after landing back home from vacation on the airplane. Phone was stuck in a Samsung Galaxy A5 logo through customs and during the drive all the way home. I tried factory resetting it on the phone but no luck, it gave me errors in red lines and cannot wipe data or cache for that matter.
Since I've only bought phone for about 1.5 month ago, I contacted my carrier (freedom mobile) about this and they send it to get it checked, only to tell me I tampered with it through a root. Lol. I don't know what's going on, and from what I have seen, I don't think there is a root for this device (A520W) yet...
The phone is still in the cellphone repair company contracted by Samsung (called Futuretel) and have yet to get it back and deal with it.
If anyone has any insights, help let me know. I will update if anything interesting happens.

I live in Canada, and unfortunately if you root it, it voids the warranty and they will not do anything unless you pay for it.
I did NOT root my phone. I kept it stock and I am sure of it.
For my issue, the company wants to charge me for replacing the mainboard too. I think they don't believe me when I say that I did not root it. I'm glad to find someone who experience this similar problem, maybe it can gain some traction.
I am also waiting for Monday to hear back from them. And hopefully you get your new device

So this is the picture they sent me saying that I rooted my phone, even though I am sure I kept it stock.
Not sure why it's displaying custom, maybe something in the mainboard triggered that.
Also the knox didn't go off. The warranty void is at 0, shouldn't I qualify for the warranty?

Those engineers that sent that truly are idiots. They haven't even considered the fact that the issue was caused by corruption to the system partition which would not only quite possibly cause the bootloop, but it would also fail the hash check and trip the custom flag.
You haven't tripped Knox and therefore in my opinion have not voided the warranty. If they don't have faith in the knox flag then why are they so keen to deny warranty when it IS tripped.
Irrespective of the above have you actually just tried reflashing the stock firmware?
A modified system image, corrupt or otherwise will fail the hash check and fail dmverity causing the device not to boot.

I haven't tried yet. The phone is still with the phone company, I was afraid of reflashing stock due to possible messups that could void the warranty. I just felt that it would be wise to deal with it the idiot-proof and "official" way since I had the phone for such a short time.
I didn't think they would accuse me of rooting my phone and voiding my warranty. I'll try to call Samsung with the picture they sent and see how can they resolve it.
Worse thing is that the phone company (freedom mobile) wants to charge me $35 to get my phone back since they determined "tampering". Not a steep fine, but I'm trying not to pay it mostly out of principle, hopefully I can work this out. It's been a rocky ride with Samsung and Freedom Mobile's costumer service.
