Have you tried a soft reset ?
Hold power down and volume up together until you get 3 viabrations then leave you phone for a minute and then turn back on

What Kernels did you flashed?
I tried Mericon V5 which I was running before quite happily and advanced stock 14 plus the complete FTF flash but nothing?? anyone know the significance of the green led flashing once before boot? if i press the power button (press not hold) the green led flashes once and nothing happens no boot nothing?
Si
PS yes sorry have tried the soft reset still nothing
Try to hold power button and volume button up until it vibrates. Then see what happens

I already unlock bootloader, root and installa CWM.. but I can't enter Recovery Mode!!
I read about and some post says "after boot vibration spam with + volume" other says with "- volume" but I can't do it
Also I tried using adb: adb reboot recovery but phone reboot normally...

When the phone boots up, I believe you get a multi-coloured illumination of the LED Bar (Red Green & Blue). When this comes, just press the down volume key repeatedly (usually once or twice is enough but it might take some time to get used to it)
Do report back your results so we can help you further.

Hi,
I am also facing the same issue. I've rooted my phone and installed CWM also. Now when i do restart to my phone, when sony logo appears (without multi-coloured illuminating LED Bar ), I start pressing 'Volum Down' button repeatedly. But it doesnt enter into Recovery mode. I simply goes to Xperia logo loading and then after that it starts loading the Internal storage and starts up with older ROM.
I dont know, if I am doing something wrong or I am not getting the correct way to boot it in recovery mode.
Plz Help.
Thanks in advance.

If you installed only recovery(not custom kernel),then when sony logo appears,repeatedly press volume down key.You will enter into recovery.
If you installed custom kernel,then when sony logo appears,repeatedly press volume up key.

I had this problem before and I discovered my phone had not been rooted correctly. Have you checked that?

Check for root. Also try this:
When the phone boots, it will vibrate at the Sony logo. Try tapping the screen multiple times at that moment. My current kernel (Sliding XSola V4) has this tap to enter recovery.
Try that and report.
I'm getting the same damn problem.
Im on stock ICS
rooted and confirmed by root checker
unlocked bootloader via sony instructions
installed cwm with recoveryX
cant get it to do **** except enter a stupid safe mode
by thrashing the volume down button
up does nothing

Hi everyone, I need help because I have probably bricked my Xperia Sola. Yesterday I tried to flash ClockWorkMod recovery ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766892 ). I flashed kernel.elf via fastboot and after flashing I unplugged the phone and I pressed the power button, the phone vibrated and the Sony logo appeared then the phone vibrated again and the blue led turned on and.. nothing else! It doesn't boot and i don't know what to do I noticed that if i press volume up while the blue led is on, the phone goes into recovery mode but I don't know what to do! Can someone help me?
p.s. Sorry for my bad english!

Well, if you clicked the volume up while he was with that blue LED, and opened his recovery, he may still go start the kernel... remove and replace the battery and turn on the phone, maybe it solves.

I can't remove it! The phone has a non-removable battery!
OK, do the following, click the power button and hold it more or less by 10secs and release when you feel three vibrations . It will reboot your phone .
I followed your instruction but the phone didn't vibrate 3 times.. I'm desperate, do you think that if I bring my phone in a Sony support center they will fix it?
He turn on a Red led when you pressing the power + up vol? have to be pressed in the same time.. you can fix it easily here. you dont need to go to a sony support center now. If reset dont work , you can use flashtool to make it stock again.

If you want , flash this rom , its have root and CMW -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908 you can use adb to flash , or with flashtool , what is much more easy to use.

Out of curiosity, were you on GingerBread or ICS when you flashed this ? And is your bootloader unlocked ?
Flash a Stock as mentioned before and you should be fine.You can go Either Stock ICS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914264
or GB (as in the previous post).
And the Force reboot is Hold Vol Up + Power for around 15 sec. You will initially have one vibration, then three. After which it turns off.
What were you on? ICS or GB?
It's just an incorrect kernel flash. Phone can still be fixed.
I've first hand experience with this >_>
Don't send to Sony. They're useless.
Hold power + vol up for 10 secs. The phone will vibrate once, keep the buttons pressed until the vibration is felt 3 times.
Let go of Power, keep the vol up pressed. Then quickly shove the USB port in.
Flash these kernels via fastboot, depending on which version you were on.
GB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908
ICS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922029
EDIT:
Or you can save all the trouble with the following:
Download Flashboot. After the 3 vibes, quickly hold vol down and shove the USB port in. Flash the stock ICS rom (includes kernel) which will fix your problems as well.

No im not rooted, never rooted this particular phone. I did nothing, i remember it having like 5 % battery just before i went to sleep so when i woke up in the morning i tried to charge it but it didnt work and that's when i got stuck
I dont think i downloaded or changed anything for the past weeks before the phone died.

Well since you are not rooted and dont have custom recovery you only have s couple of things to try.
Turn off your phone then press power+volume up + volume down for a few seconds until you get to a screen where you are going to highlight recovery with your volume down and select it with volume up,when the android with red triangle appers press volume up + volume down and let go,a new screen will apear then highlight wipe cache with volume keys and select it with power button after that reboot your phone and see if solved your problem,otherwise you are gonna have to upgrade to jelly bean via stock recovery or rsdlite.

You do explain very well which i like.
Seems like i have to do the last thing. Upgrade to Jelly bean via stock recovery or rsdlite.

Hi all,
I have Motorola XT621 Primus, after some playings with it and trying to root and add RTL patching i got a brick.
Now the status is that i have fastboot mode working but bootloader is locked, no recovery working and no ADB working, no boot too.
I tryed many ways to flash or unlock bootloader but nothing works. Any commands like fstboot oem got output like (...)
Is there any way to unlock bootloader via fastboot and flash new rom or it completely bricked?
Thanks!

Looks like it's a problem with the file you trying to flash.
What is your FW version?
try going to help>log devel-debug and then retry.
this had worked for me.
well...
In fact i had JB and the fw that im trying to flash is ICS, but this shouldn´t be the problem... or yes?

Many people make mistakes by flashing WRONG rom for your specific device. Where are you downloading your Image from and does it match the model with your phone?
Are you on Administrator while flashing the files ?

Press volume up + power for about 15 seconds untill you feel 3 vibrations, and try to reflash FW.
Mybe you need another FW dile if this one is not working.
Tes flashing ICS files on JB is a good reason for boot loop.
