Hi:
In the last day i was trying to flash the LEAK 4.1.2 build 6.2.B.0.203 , using DooMLork kernel , the problem was facing me is that my phone still do reboot after the first logo.
Then my phone turned off and i can't do any thing like flash mode or fastboot or charge of vibrate , even no led.
After like 4 hours of charging my phone show red led apear and disapear evry 20 second.
Today in the morning i can see a red led that still apear all the charging time and nothing happen.
From 2 minuits suddenly i saw that my phone turned on and show the first logo "Free Xperia" and after 5 second getted dead again and the same , only red led.
Any help to get into flashmood?
Again i had the boot logo , i tried to press VPL up + Power bottom and it do restart , tried to get 3 viberates and after i had it dead again.
Hi folks, i bricked my phone too. i was on leaked JB too and its worked like a charm. i founded an article about Chainfire so i tried but the phone went bootloop and then i red how to uninstall it. need adb mode on recovery. but the leaked twrp kernel cannot be on adb mode so i decided i flash a regular ics cwm kernel. so i flashed than tap tap tap on sony logo but nothing happened but bootloop. tried a lot times but same. so i decided i flash back the leaked twrp and flash the rom again so pressed the power and vol up until 3 vibrations it powered off and thats all. doesnt respond. cant power off cant flash mode cannot fasboot mode. now is on wall charger but nothing happen. what should i do for now? please help i love my ion especially with JB. :crying::crying::crying::crying:
edit: and its full charged because it was on wall charger while i slept :/

The reason why i don't want to do it because if i did it my phone will be cheaper because it will called "Fixed Phone".
Now i got the first logo again while it's connected to the PC , i tried to press VOL- but flashtool didn't detect it and came dead again.
Maybe the next time i can get into recovery , but what can i do?

Then i turned it on and it show sony logo then i did 3 vibrates to get it off to flash a stock rom but dead again.

Last updates:
All what i can get ofter connecting to PC for a long time is the device start up and show Sony logo then the logo disapear and reboot then do it again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again then stop booting and got dead.
Edit 1: When it show Sony logo i tried to press VOL+ and connect the usb but no fastboot , the same with flash mode.
Edit 2: When it start rebooting wave again i tried to press VOL+ and - then it got stuck with black screen , Flashtool can detect it in USB debigging off mode and it can't be turned off with the 3 vibrates trick.
Edit 3: By removing the sim card the phone turned off. Now back to the first stage with only red led and after long time connecting to PC it show Sony logo then reboot.

I think: you should turn off but when it trying turning off it goes brick, get stuck... i dont know you have to turn off manual ( with disassemble) and connenct usb and vol up because now it cannot be in fastboot or flash mode. or you should leave it to full discharge than it will turn off but it may take several weeks.

No problem , thank you for trying help.
Charging for 10 hours , only red led.
while on a loop, press the volume down button and connect it to the PC. If it doesn't work, press power+vol up till it vibrates once keeping the vol down button pressed as well. if it goes into flashmode, forget everything and flash stock ftf.
on a red led situation, hold the vol down and connect it to PC. It will show no led but keep holding it for long, it will go into flashmode

I tried that to make it restart with one vibrate but no flashmode , i will try it again with holding the VOL- before i do the vibrate.
For the led when i connect it to the PC holding VOL- the red led apear , why?
**** **** **** **** **** **** me , whn it start the rebooting i pressed the VOL+ and = and the power bottom and it start to connect and dis connect again on MTP debugging off mode and after a while i got the green led and flash mode but the ftf waz compressed and while it's extracting the green led gone....
Fixed!!!!
This is small guide what to do:
1- Charge your phone with PC or wall charger until you get a stable red led (Stable led not flashing led) maybe that will take hours.
2- Now connect your phone to the PC , you will find the red led back again.
3- The idea now is that your phone will auto start after some time , you need to be holding the VOL- bottom before it start up that you can get a green led and you can flash the rom with flashtool.
Some times it got start up after like 4 minuits after you connect it to PC , and other times maybe it will take like 20 minuits to start. So you have to hold the VOL- bottom almost the time and there is no problem if you let the bottom for some seconds , but be carefull that it will suddenly boot up so you have to be holding the bottom.
If you success with rom flashing , connect your phone to the charger and wait until it will start first time and get dead , then start again normaly
Charge ur phone with wall charger (its faster than pc) until u get green led. After that, hold Vol - and connect the phone to pc.
AS the title says...guys please i need your help...i have downloaded a stock firmware and tried to flash it but it didn`t work, i held the vol down button and putted the usb cable the green light showed up and i got "error flashing aborted" and my device continued booting and it get`s stuck on SONY logo if i soft shut down it, it restarts every time i have to hard shut down it 3 Times vibration....i tried to go to CWM as the blue led lights up but it won`t light up...please help me, i tried putting it on the wall charger to see if a light shows up NO LIGHT only SONY Logo PLEASE GUYS PLEASE HELP ME

Just flash again bro.. thats a soft brick and can be easily fixed by flashing the ftf again

I tried to flash the new firmware necessary to flash the 5.0 GPE rom but found that my phone had no OS after that. So I tried to flash PhilZ recovery so that I could load a ROM but after I completed that, the M8 is basically dead. The screen won't turn on and the notification light is red. No matter what buttons I press, power+volup, voldown or both, the red light just turns off for a second and then turns on again. The screen won't turn on at all. It's not a battery issue as I had close to 80%. I'm sure I've bricked it somehow but is there a way to fix it? Please help.

does the PC recognize the phone, do you get any usb notification sound ?
does the pc load a driver when plugged in ?
what firmware were you on and what firmware did you flash ?

If you answer these, we can try to help you further :good:
charge it for 15mints and see the noti light turns on or not and if the pc doesn't recognize after installing drivers then its hard bricked , what did u did with the phone?
I don't know what the issue was but I kept repeating vol up+power reboots until it turned on. Was able to flash the ROM through adb sideload.
I have xperia M which i think is bricked now. It gets stuck ay the sony logo and later a black screen appears with a white horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen and restarts all over again. it is rooted but the bootloader is still locked. while connected to pc it shows qhsusb_dload and detects only fastboot mode in flash tool. it still runs the stock jelly bean which i updated using pc companion. Earlier i installed xposed framework and went goofing around in build props, may be thats what caused it. Please someone help me fix this.

Okay I did some research about this "qhsusb_dload", it means Qualcomm High Speed USB Download Mode and it doesn't translate to a good condition at all
It usually happens because your phone's bootloader is corrupted:... meaning hard-bricked..some recover from it by miracles.
From what I've researched, try putting the phone connected to a charger and full charge it, then try attempting to turn it on, keep trying, and also try pressing the power button for 15secs if it still won't boot up properly.
If all fails, then I'm sorry, I can't help you on this.. send it to the service center..
I'm so sorry for your device usually goofing around a compatible xposed with only root won't bring the phone into a total hardbrick....
This happens most commonly, from what I've researched, if you drain your phone completely to 0% and try to boot it up again..

same happens with me but it is still in flashmode and lets me flash stock rom when i bricked it, wouldn't worry about it as long as the led was green it doesn't matter if it goes off after.
Okay so here's what happened. I unlocked my device just fine, and attempted to install a ROM, didn't work, So i decide I'm going to try to install cyanogenmod. I go this (wikiDOTcyanogenmodDOTORG/w/Install_CM_for_a5 )wiki tutorial [/URL] and I attempt to flash clockworkmod recovery via this link (builderDOTunstableappsDOTCOM/#/latest/clockworkmodrecovery/a5) When i flash, it installs. But then upon booting I get the app for developement only screen, and it's stuck showing my battery charge screen, with the orange charge light. Anyways I can't boot using the power down volume combo. I'm currently waiting on the battery to die so I can reflash the stock recovery, because fastboot won't recognize the device when I plug it in, even though my computer makes the device connected tone. So should I just wait until the battery dies? Or is there something else I can do?
Any help will be appreciated, thanks
Solved
I actually solved my problem. I waited for the phone to die, powered it on normally. Then to reset the device and held the power and up button as soon as the screen went black hit down on the volume and got into my bootloader.
