Hi guys,
I was flashing a rom using MiFlash when this happened.As soon as the flashing process started it showed permission denied and the process failed.Now this kind of problem can happen.But in such cases the phone will be usually detected as QSHB_BULK.In such a case proper drivers can be installed and the phone can flashed back to normal.But in my case the phone is simply not getting detected.I think I messed something up in the kernel level.
Now the only sign that the phone is still alive is the flashing notification light when it is connecteed to my PC.A red light shows up for a second and that's it.
Did anyone have the same problem?Can anyone help me?

If you have hardbricked your phone and there are threads here and on miui forum to solve that problem, there seems to be different solutions. One of them is going through EDL, possibly throught miflash and another one is using a modified usb cable.

Hi
Really need some advice here. After (successfully) flashing ROMs on my HTC Desire and a couple of LG / Samsung units, I decided I was fed up with the stock ICS ROM on my Arc S so found one I liked called Jelly Sandwich v6.2.
So, I rooted, no probs, unlocked the bootloader, no probs. Installed CWM and did a nandroid backup to my SD card. So far, so good.
I then used CWM to install the JS ROM and the phone is now stuck on the SONY screen, presumably the boot is looping and I have to pull the battery to shut it back down.
I can't get it into recovery, tried every combination of buttons I can think of. I can get it into fastboot by holding the menu button and inserting the USB cable and if I do a CMD line fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version I get the expected response, but if I try adb shell I get 'device not found'.
I am rubbish at best with command line stuff but I think this is my only way forward.
Have tried flashtool and I get the phone into Flashmode but it finishes with an error.... 04/048/2012 00:48:51 - INFO - Ending flash session
04/048/2012 00:48:51 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed".
Have also tried SuS and that fails with an error along the lines of "The phone has got modified software that cannot be upgraded" or similar.
Anyone tell me specifically what to try? and exactly what I need to be doing with commands etc.
Would appreciate any help no matter how small
Use the Flashtool instead of SEUS.

SORTED!!!
ok I sorted this eventually.
Tried everything I could think of and more besides (went through 100s of threads on here and elsewhere).
Eventually I went to wontanserver.com after seeing it recommended on a thread but it didn't work (forget the error but basically it wouldn't flash).
Then the battery died, left it on charge overnight but it was still dead so really thought that it was a hard brick.
Anyway, this morning, still very blearey eyed, I booted it into fastboot with usb connected and then the wotan tool didn't even recognise the phone, so used Flashtool to connect and the only command that would work was "Rebbot into fastboot mode (via Fastboot)"
Did that and the wotan flash tool started working, unpacking and flashing merrily along and a few minutes later the phone is back from the brink of almost certain death.
Don't know if my blurb will help anyone else, but it at least shows you should never give up :victory:

have you tried to flash a specif kernel for this rom or just redownloaded the rom? maybe there was a problem with the download
Since these problems I have installed both CynogenMod 10 and UltimateHD without any problems what so ever.
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.

This happened to me and i had the phone checked and it was the flex cable that needed replacement
Did you find any solution or are blocked in recovery or flash mode?
So I had a custom firmware on my Z1C and I followed a tutorial and how to go back to stock firmware.I followed the instructions and now my phone is hard bricked. My phone's led lights either flashes red, does one short flash of red and then one long one, or when it's plugged into a wall charger it's green. I tried all different variations on turning on the phone but it won't simply turn on. There were other tutorials on using Sony Companion and other updaters but that didn't work because everytime I'd plug my phone in. My PC recognizes an ADB driver but the it says it failed.
I think this would help me fix it but I don't quite understand how to do this. I already opened up my phone but can someone please explain on how to do this.

I tried using this link and the one I provided before combined but I think I need certain downloads or something to do it.

Can someone basically just show me how I can unbrick my phone the way using the test point and GND. Please, my phone really needs to come back, and It'd be cool if you showed me how to go back to the official stock rom too. HELP ME PLEASE
Would be good to know which custom rom you had, which tutorial you followed and which rom you installed to brick it

That sucks man, are you gonna buy a new one? I mean a bricked phone is per definition not fixable.
...So is it really bricked or did you just **** up and want help with it? Change your topic.

iI don't know man, when I opened my phone before I got the reply I messed up the battery wire thing so I bought a new one online and I'm waiting for it to come. I hope I just ****ed up. :l
Nearly At the end of every month my my phone gets into some kinda software problem (example : Google has stopped working then process.android has stopped working and some other random **** which is quite annoying) whenever this happens the phone restarts on its own and never turns on,i mean it does but is stuck on loading screen.(note: I dont do anything stupid which might harm my phone. )So i have to flash my phone with spflashtool it.This time when i flashed the phone it didnt turn, i held the button for long but it was of no use, so i thought it might be the low on battery,but when i put it on charge nothing popped up... it wasnt charging. Then I thought it was the battery but my battery wasnt swollen and the day before I flashed it,it was running fine with full charge. , there was no sign of battery problem anytime i used it the consumption was normal.
Please help me fix this problem, and I also want a permanent fix to the software problem too.
Any senior member please help..
TIA
:fingers-crossed:
Update:I flashed the phone with new files but results were the same :'(

same happens to me bro my android one is also dead same problem as yours when i tried with sp flash tool its end up with this error..... scr shot attached
☹
Bro,I flashed it thrice after but it didn't give any errors,but sadly it just wont turn on
If it were permanently bricked then it wouldn't have detected the phone...and bro lemme give you a suggestion,try changing it to firmware upgrade instead of download only.
Thanks for the reply
simmilar issue
same problem pls help in my case when i charge not charging the battery indicator just pops up and out i think its a battery error put in a new battery try to boot up nothing try to go in recovery nothing i have nothing to boot up from i think ill still try using fastboot and/or flashing and reporting back(ima try dead usb flash using spflash tool)
okay flashing works perfectly now i just need for figure out if the problem is with the charging/battery or the phone is dead
Same Problem
Bro, i have run into exact same problem. I even went to gallery and gave them the phone, they said they will charge 1500 as motherboard is dead but after one month they returned to me the phone saying that motherboard is not available. They are taking almost 14 days to return money so i have to visit again on 3rd june. But coming back to problem i have tried flasing with and without battery for 3-4 times. every times it shows success but the phone wont start. Even memory test was all fine. cant figure out what's the problem. i have tried both download only and format+download mode but nothing seems to work, If anyone finds a way to fix the phone please tell ASAP.
Same problem as the OP, mine's bricked as well after it began showing random FCs. Flashed KK and LP firmwares using SP Flash Tool but to no avail. The flash was successful tho but the phone never booted up
I'm kinda stuck in a similar situation. Let's start from the beginning -
When I got my Redmi Note 3 I stopped using my Canvas A1 and vaguely i remember that it was having software issues, rather than fixing it I just kept it away for a lot of months, and vaguely I remember that it just needed some flashing of rom and it would've gotten fixed.
And after all these months i'm need of this phone again. I don't remember much in depth details of the processes involved with it like flashing stuff etc. But I gathered as much knowledge as I could from the docs I had stored as backup & from the internet.
And IMO I think the flashing process was successful, but the screen is not turning on. Only once when I connected it to PC, the charging battery sign appeared(flashing thrice) but that was it. Nothing after that. And whenever I connect it to PC it detects the phone.
For now I've given it to a repair guy but I don't have much hope. He was saying that it could be just software problem, but I don't agree. If a smart person could comment on this thread so that we all could get some benefit out of it, in order to solve the situation or at least in my case I could research on something specific in the meantime.

Good afternoon, after the ota software update, the display stopped working, just a black screen, but the system sounds are there. I tried to restore the official firmware via flashtool, it didn't help. Rmx3242 . The display is original, not replaceable

You have to flash the stock rom including the ocdt.img, I had the same problem.
Did you ever solve your problem ? I'm experiencing something similar, the phone won't boot or charge
I've got something similar. The phone turn on, barely, and immediately turns off again. Gives a tiny vibration and turns off.
Only when on the charger, if it's not on the charger, no boot whatsoever.
