Bricked after Update of New firmware for the Smartwatch 2 to version 1.0.B.3.46/1.0.A.3.8
Hello,
Today Morning my watch updated on it's own I presume to New firmware version (1.0.B.3.46/1.0.A.3.8. ( flashing and the wavy display) after update it felt quite sliugissh so I decided to update using the utility .
The utility indicated new update available but when I tried to update it said failed . After that the watch refuses to turn on .
I have tried following
1. USe the 15-20 sec reset using power button - NO use
2. Tried to update again using the Sony Update utility ( The watch is recognized - it tries to update and then quickly says failed)
3. Charged it for almost 3 hours and tried again - Same result .
Now going by the other messages I have to try following
1. Charge overnight and try again
2. Leave it without power for few days and try again.
Does anybody know some other trick.
I cannot easily return it to Sony as at the moment travelling in Africa

What kind of charger you use? Try to turn on with wallcharger in it!

It could be that the power button is somewhat stuck, try and push in the face of the watch, that happened to me some days ago, watch turned off itself and I couldn't turn it back on.
So I remembered someone saying that they had the power button stuck and shortly after the watch became loose; mine seemed fine but (not sure if it was that) I pushed a little on the face as to fit it better and there you go, it powered on again.
It's a long shot, but hey, doesn't hurt to try...

I had the same exact issue
Just try to install the software with another computer with update service

I have the exact same problem.
I cannot reinstall the software because it fails every time.
Is there a way to hard reset or return to the previous firmware?

Till now Not found a solution or alternatives ways
@ BLK900 ->> BTW I have tried on three different machines with Firewalls off /AV switched of to rule out any outside interference .
@ fastest83 ->> The power button is working fine as after pressing it it detects the watch in update service .
I think something is botched up in sony update service .
I found a thread on http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Wireless-accessories/bd-p/accessories/page/2 - where one user had excatly same problem after running update on SBH52 ( bluetooth headset launched at the same time). He allowed the battery to fully run down before running the update . I am going to try that
Anybody has a idea when the battery will run out in off state ( while running mine used to last 2-3 days)
Sony must fix the update service or provide us a manul way to flash older firmware . so far my emails to service have not yeilded any results . getting the same boilerplate message run the update service or return it back for repair .

As for the battery, I'd expect at least 2 weeks while off, maybe even more...
I would try to run the update service several times (if it recognise the watch, that means the watch is somewhat on) to see if the battery runs out faster...

Mine after showing that error code, it vibrates 3 times... All I did is charge it until the pairing animation shows up then I paired it manually via Bluetooth - it paired and it booted twice and that's it.

Try the pairing with another smartphone, then when paired use the icon Settings on the SW2 to reset it, and then try the pairing again with your smartphone.
Dead
My smartwatch 2 stopped responding the 2nd day I bought it. It was showing the Sony logo and that was all. Tried updating with SUS, went ok and when restarted phone it shows logo and. 3 25 11 code. The phone is detected in SUS but update atempt fails. Tried charging, it appears that is charging but the percentage doesn't rise until restart. I think is dead.

so severoprisan, how is your sw2? is it repaired? what did they say?
Not yet. It takes 1-3 weeks from January 10th. So I'll wait.

Same here
I had the same issue. Called Sony and went through some troubleshooting before they decided it needed to be returned. The support people do not seem to have any idea why this is happening.
Not a great experience with their support people. They promised an RMA and then "forgot" to issue it. It took three calls, but the watch has finally been sent to them. I'm awaiting the refurb now.
update: Got a call from Sony. During the conversation, they mentioned that they do not send out refurbs and that the replacement watch I will receive should be brand new.
update 02/29/14: Received the replacement watch today. Pretty fast turnaround. Now I just hope this one doesn't brick, too.
I had same problem, got this watch on Christmas and after update sth gone wrong and only Flash FS message on screen. Tried everything and no luck. Finally contact Sony and send to SBE (in UK that company services most of mobile phones as manufacture service) and got replacement watch after only... 3 weeks

Talked to service, they told me that they have 2 SW2's and there is no way to repair them if bricked. So i'm waiting for the replacement watch.

Hi,
I have:
Sony Xperia Z1 Compact
Rooted
CyanogenMod version 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-amami
Android version 4.4.4
Kernel version 3.4.0cyanogenmod-g1b20e398 [email protected] #1
Build number cm_amami-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84Q a265284510 test-keys
My phone's screen has the annoying problem of sometimes not waking when I press the power button (while the phone is turned on). The phone is still on, but doesn't respond to input. I can call it, but nothing happens. I can connect the charger, but it doesn't respond.
I did not experience the issue before rooting. After rooting and installing CyanogenMod, the problem occurred perhaps 1-2 a week.
Recently I encrypted my phone. After that the problem has become much more frequent. The screen is now unwakable roughly 2-3 times a day, some times even more!
The only solution I have found, it to either turn the phone off via the red off button next to the SIM card, or by rebooting it by holding the power button in for so long.
The issue is extremely annoying, especially after it started occurring 2-3 times a day.
I have tried searching for similar issues, but haven't found any solutions.
I have tried changing the brightness levels so the max level is 99% instead of 100%, as someone had suggested, but that hasn't made any difference. Unscrewing the phone and cleaning the proximity sensor, as someone else had suggested, is something I haven't tried yet, as I don't feel competent enough to unscrew the phone.
The phone used to have the protection plastic provided from the fabric, but I tore that off not too long ago. No change in behaviour.
I have not managed to find one special event that triggers this behaviour or reproduce the issue on demand.
Hopefully someone will have some tips as to what I can do to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
Any modifications on the kernel? Like special governors or under/overclocking?
As you are using a custom ROM the clear advise here is: try out with stock ROM and see if the problem is still there.
If not, it is a problem with the ROM.
I'm having the exact same problem. I flashed cm11 snapshot two days ago, and today my screen wouldn't wake no matter what.not even a restart would solve the issue, cause the moment the phone goes to sleep after a boot, that was the last time the screen was on. I'm following this thread in case somebody comes up with a solution.
hi there, my phone is acting the same way as yours described. Mine is rooted on stock lolipop and it never happened before although i had a replacement unit and the one before that acting the same way. Pressed the power button and nothing happend regardless screen on or off. Had to do hard reset and it worked for like 1 or 2 days. I went to sony talk forum and ppl seems to say it a bug since the phone released. If anyone got anything would be great help. Thanks
Hi all!
I have a 2.5 years old LG G3 black and since Saturday the touch screen doesn't work very well.
When I unlock the phone the touch screen works fine a few seconds (2-5) but then suddenly it doesn't response to my touches, no touch feedback at all. It seems like it freezes... But the rotation and volume settings by the hardware buttons work fine all the time, even if the touch doesn't react .
I did factory reset and brought it to the repair service, they told it's the display and replaced the whole front part of my phone, but after couple of hours using it, the problem appeared again... No idea why, maybe it's a software problem and a reset to kitkat or an older version would help, but I haven't done any software update for a long time, so I don't think it has been caused by an unstable update or similar...
Using Android 6.0 the official one, no ROM.
Do you guys have any idea ?
Thanks a lot for help.
Hi All, I'm new to XDA. I bought my LG Nexus 5x in 2016 (July). Since last week my phone isn't working. This is what happens.
When I switch on the phone after full charge. It starts with a very small white light ,but no display (no logo , nothing).
There is a welcome password at the start. So it will not go to any other step. I couldn't type my password , because nothing on the screen. But when I try to press on the screen , I can feel the keyboard touch.
I alos tried changing the display with another working 5x display. But same issue. Any suggestions guys?
PS : I didn't update this to Oreo. But before this issue happened , there was an auto update of Google Play Service with 430 MB (I also cancelled auto update ,didn't know how it was updated without my permission) , after that Oreo update notification wasn't in notification panel. But when I was checking at Setting OS wasn't updated to Oreo at that time
Alright so this exact thing happened to me few months back. I bought new phone and moved on. So like 20 minutes ago, I got the urge to check on my nexus if it can be revived and surprisingly, the screen started working. I don't know how, but the screen was totally black before i gave this phone up (with backlight on) and I could feel the vibrations. Just a few minutes ago I have started seeing these screen distortions again. I think it's a software issue so i'm downloading latest 7.1.2 ota to flash and will apply bootloop fix and see if it fixes anything.

Hi, Thank you very much for kind reply. I don't understand the last part. Did you resolve the issue? Did you flash the device? Please help me with the steps that you have followed.
And another problem with the July update (the most f****d up update ever! lol)
After fully charging the phone (with the OEM charger) I noticed that the touch screen became very unresponsive especially with the navigation buttons. Strange but I never faced such a problem before this update.
Hello, I have exactly the same problem.
The screen is less responsive and very difficult to use.

The first thing you should do is factory reset.
No touch on LCD. miA2lite
I have tried hard reset that but it's still the same. No touch at all. The bootloader is locked. So just want any solutions. Or answers. . I have tried another screen. And that doesn't work either. So maybe software related. ?
same problem with august update
I think I will give back in warranty
New mi a2 lite here with the latest update . The keyboard is so slow . i need to press twice on letters especially on the edge of screen(i can type faster on my older samsung s4) .same thing for scrolling sometimes fast and other times slow
I recommend both of you to try "Force GPU Rendering" option in developer settings, in my case after applying august update the problem still exists but not as worse like before /in July update mostly/. The strange thing now is the problem not shows up after every charge, maybe it's just hardware issue in my case, maybe after charging the phone become too hot and the issue shows up / f****d up display cable or so../
i droped my A2 lite phone then screen didnt work at all and tried to reset it what can i do???

I think you need to open a new thread since your situation is different from the OP.
Has anyone been able to resolve this issue? It's extremely frustrating, especially since the phone is generally preforming pretty well apart for this problem!
Since July unfortunately still the same issue
I solved my Mi A2 lite ghost touch problem by turning on battery saving mode. I tried all other methods before it and none of that worked. May be the problem is with some background process which turns off by turning on battery saving mode. I hope this method will work for you.
