After using recovery and install a new kernel ( seems not compatible ) after choose reboot to system option my Xperia S didn't function anymore and I couldn't able to use keys to reset or power on my phone.
I try all of combination of keys but nothing
I put in charging more than 8 hour but nothing ( only first solid RED led appeared and after hours it goes off and when try to charge another time it did the same )
when I connect to PC the flashtool shows it connected with debugging off and do nothing.
I can't go on flash mode or fast mode to reinstall again.

What did you said?

It's not bricked, one of my Xperia S phones did this to me on multiple occasions. The first time i just let it charge over night, or until the solid red LED turned to solid orange LED. The patience waiting for it to turn to an orange LED is the key here i noticed after it happening several times, interrupt it each time and it may as well be bricked through lack of patience.

Thread moved to Q & A section, kindly post in the relevant section next time.

As I wrote I try all combination of keys but nothing changed...
Just when I plug to PC red LED goes on but after about an hour it goes off , and when I replug it goes on again...
Last days when I plug to wall charger red LED acts the same pluged to PC but now red LED is off about 8 hours connected to charger....
Only the flashtool recocnised the phone with usb debugging off when I connect to PC but I can't go to flash mode or fast boot mode...
Is there any commands with an application that works with xperia s and re write its bootloader when its not in flash or fastboot modes.
I was installed all of the derivers needed for adb and ... when my Xperia S was working...
would know someone help me to take my phone works agian?

Ohh man that's some pain in the ass!I don't know man you should try it again but explain me again you can only see red led light and nothing else???I had almost the same problen but luckily for me my usb debugging was checked.I don't know man google it just to got the usb debugging.If you could do that than this is the post for you....however if you don't... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31884091

Phone wont boot. Bad flash

Xperia S Issues. Bad Flash
Hi, I read the 'existing users' installation instructions on the Sspeed ICS rom and installed the rom without installing the ics rom and kernel (I was tired). When booting, I go in a bootloop with the doomkernel screen. I can access recovery fine.
When holding vol+ and connecting to PC the phone goes back into it's bootloop and does not boot into fastboot.
When holding vol- and connecting to PC the phone flashes the green led and then boots into bootloop.
If I wait until the phone vibrates and lights up blue I can press the button to access recovery. I thought I could then just copy a gb rom over using USB mount but it is not detected on the PC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Thanks but like I say fast boot and flashmode don't work so I can't access this option
I have the same problem too... I was hoping it would just work, but apparently it doesn't it needs a base rom.....I'm at work at the moment so i cannot fix my phone(i flashed it while at work which i shouldn't have done...) i noticed you can put it into fast boot in recovery - go to reboot options then fast boot can you see if that works

Hi thanks for your reply. I've tried going to fastboot
from recovery and I get a blue flashing light for one flash then it boots up again. Am I able to do anything at that point?
Glad I'm not the only stupid one on here
im not the expert here but I have bricked other phones before but never an xperia phone before. I have been reading up, the doom kernel has some mounting options, try to mount the sd card as mass storage so pc can send files accross to the phone. It should be mount and storage menu -> mount usb storage, then leave it on that menu and connect to computer, see if that works

Hi is this by the mount USB storage optuon ? I tried that and it wasn't detected on the PC. I could try another PC later. Recovery went into mount mode fine but nothing happened on the PC. Not even a blank drive which I know some people have had
If it blinks the LED for a second and reboots, that means that you don't have the drivers. Install drivers that are bundled with flashtool and try again. Or use Linux / OSX.

I've used the laptop I'm trying it on for unlocking the boot loader and rooting. Maybe something corrupted the drivers. Will try on my Linux machine when I get home.
Thank you for all the help so far
Just Press VolUp and Power button until you get (one vibration followed by 3 consecutive vibrations) ... it will mean phone is shutdown.
Once shutted down, you will be able to press VolDown while plugging phone to PC and it will enter into flashmode.
Then you will be able to flash a FTF using flashtool
doesn't work...after the 3 beeps i let go and the screen turns black but then the boot loop happens again, i cant turn the phone off

Hello. I've got familiar problem. My phone blacked out after one day having about 35 % battery full. I was trying to reset it by holding power and volume up buttons - nothing happened. Just once showed up Sony logo but then again black nothing. Then it vibrate 3 times quickly and from that time it is shutted down, won't turn on even in flashmode. LED is not working too. I was asking for advice in local store servise and guy told me, that new phones have to be at least 30 min on the charger. So it's here now for hour, no result. :/
Just fixed this issue.
Follow these steps
1.hold vol up + power until phone vibrates 3 times.
2.open flash tool and point towards your stock file.
3.hit okay
4.wait for flash tool to prepare the files then it will prompt you to connect device in flash mode( vol down + power)
5.wait for it to finish. Unplug reboot and there you go fixed...
Hope this helps

Use the bundled wallcharger!!! not a PC, pc has too less power to charge it now!
After wallcharger is placed hold vol+ and power for a few seconds until 3 vibrations, then let the phone on charger for atleast 2 hours, if all is good phone will bootup to the "charging animation"

Something similar happened to me. I have the bugged version of chargemon (only can charge with phone on) and accidentally discharged completely. The phone didn't boot, didn't charge and didn't do the 3 vibrations thing. So I put the battery off, conected the wall charger, putted the battery and it booted
It's really easy to remove the battery, you just need to be careful

[Sola] Cyanogenmod 9 bricked my sola?

I've tried to install Cyanogenmod 9 on my Xperia Sola, I've unlocked bootloader official way, flashed kernel from this forum specialy made for sola (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28957468&postcount=412 This One), then boot.img of cyanogenmod 9 (FXP203) and...
When I want to do anything with phone, it just flashes my red led. I mean, that led is still on, when I press Power it just turn off. And when I try to connect my phone in fastboot mode, It don't react at all. Can I already throw it away through window?
I put it under a charger to see if it's just off energy, but i've noticed, that after a while, red led just turns off and that's all.
My god, help me or I'll be back on Nokia 3310
You've used the S kernel, not the Sola.
Download the FXP for Sola (Pepper) here;

Flash boot.img via fastboot. To get in, hold vol up + power. Wait for 3 vibrations.
Hold vol up. Then jam the USB cable in. You should be in fastboot.
Alternatively, flash the stock sola ftf via flashboot.
Problem is, my phone does not react, it does not vibrate, just that red led is on or off. Nothing else. I've tried all of those combinations. I can't get to fastboot mode or anything else.

Happened to me (I use Xperia GO). What I did is (as mentioned above) - Hold the power button and Volume Up button for sometime (it vibrates once after a few seconds, do not leave the buttons - continue to do so and after a few more seconds until 3 vibrations) and then the phone switches off. Now, hold the Volume Up button and plug in the USB cable - you'd be able to get in the fastboot mode. Flash a stock kernal and that should help.
If your phone is completely down (no charge at all), then above won't help. Plugin the charger and and wait for a few mins (before the red light goes off - you should now have a good knowledge on when the light goes off!) and try then try the above step. Once the 3 vibration comes, remove the charger and go ahead with the flash mode.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
B.
Edit: By the way, I had my SIM Card and Memory card inserted in the phone when the phone was completely down without any charge. I don't know how, but it makes a difference with you try so (atleast in my case) with them.
If it does not vibrate, then it's a hard brick =\ You need the phone to be at least partially responsive to get into fastboot/flashboot.
Keep holding down. It should vibrate after 25 seconds or so.
Otherwise, you have to bring it to Sony and tell them their phone died on you.
Right now It dosen't even blink with Led. It's totaly down. I cant lock fbootloader, so I'm doomned. Hope that won't cost much...
Install Sony Update Service (SUS) and try to recover your phone from there.
Last shot here, but here's to hoping that the PC at least detects your phone.
Otherwise.... Yeah =\
If you unlocked your bootloader Pc companion will be useless for you cause it will not detect your phone,.,,
i think other way is to flash the stock ftf for you device using flashtool.... that wuld be the best shot for you...
please respond if this fix your problem
No, SUS will detect, but will refuse to flash. It will say "Phone has been modified".
Need to see whether it's a hard brick. If even SUS does not recognise, then bring it to Sony =\
None of the above works. It's just dead and sometimes flashes red light. PC Companion says that there's no phone connected. Hope I will be able to gain a varranty or I'll be on Nokia 3310. But I'm not verry cheerful about that...
Flashtool does not react when I plug in my phone in fastboot or flash.
Hey bro,
Its highly unlikely for hardbrick to happen to Sony phones by flashing a differnt Kernel when Flashtool is there Pretty sure that it ought to work, follow the steps below (Note that the order of usb cable connection is the most important thing as doing it wrong will not allow Flashtool to connect to the phone when its bricked ! )
First, try plugging it in to charger for a while to ensure that there's some charge. Follow up with the Vol and power Button to make sure its turned off. Then after that follow this procedure *exactly*
1) Prepare Flashtool and select the FTF. (Flashmode )
2) When flashtool asks yo to connect the phone, connect the USB cable to PC
3) Then, holding down ONLY the Vol Down button (No Power button, Note that ) connect the phone to the USB cable and in a few seconds, Flashtool will start flashing
I know you tried many variations but missing out on one or the other detail during your previous tries might have caused the lack of success Just try it and let us know what happens
Best of luck and hope you dont have to go to Nokia World !
Cheers
Nope, it's still not working. It just dosent detect phone. I'm pluging in, holding only volume key and I'm waiting 5 minutes - nothing happend.
Nokia 5530 for now, but come one...
Hi,
I am currently having the same problem (I have bricked my sola by flashing with fxp boot.img). After digging the internet I found out that you can start fastboot by:
1. holding all 3 buttons (power on, volume +, volume -)
2. the phone will vibrate
3. the phone will vibrate 3 times
4. release the buttons
5. hold the volume + button and plug in the cable
6. you should be in fastboot now (blue light on)
If fastboot does not work then do 1-4 3x. Good luck! Hopefully we will unbrick our phones

Lol things u get on the internet!!!
First there is no such key combination to start fastboot k so just dun break ur buttons in an attempt to start it ...
Steps 1,2&3 are steps to get ur device force restart and force shutdown and let me tell you one thing
step 1 is wrong it power button and volume + button. That's it first the phone will vibrate once for force restart and if u keep pressing it will bypass over to force shutdown which is indicated by 3 vibrations..

could work
I have a Xperia U and triying to port JB to it I briked two or three times.
I hold power botom and it vibrate and doesnt happen anything ok.?¿
The possible solution could be this(for my works)
Charge the phone like 1 hour for my doesnt charge with the animation but its for security.
With the nest steps you are going to lose all CWM and tweaks and apks but personal data still there.
You have two options:
Flash a new rom with flashtool, but when you pluged with volum - you hold it for allmost all process becose for my i conect to PC and its goes quikly so i cant do annything.
If the phone is not recognised by Flashtool:
You have to repair it with PC Companion or Bridge for Mac, and also the same hold volum - almost all process.
For my it works, tell my if for you works:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
Hi,
it worked !
after doing the steps I have posted earlier I managed to flash my xperia sola with the right boot.img (the one from fxp pepper) and install fxp via CWM. Should work for you too.
One tip: you have to remove the assert from fxp installation script.
Br,
Wermesz
@op, your battery is dead and isn't accepting any external charge. Try replacing your battery with a charged one. That is if sola supports user replaceable batteries.

First of all make sure the phone is off, press power + volume up untill you feel 1+3 vibrations(sometime 1+1+3).
See if you can charge it, though charging led may not turn on, leave it on charger for an hour or two, then force it off again and try fastboot again.

Had this same issue while using a custom ROM , resolved by using SUS . Connect your phone to computer and let it charge first for an hour , then open SUS and follow the instruction .

Sony Xperia P Hard Brick

Hello guys.This is my problem with Xperia P.I tried to update CWM from 6.0.1.2 to 6.0.3.0 in hope that I will get rid of that status error 7 when trying to install CM 11.Ok so what I did:i downloaded an update for CWM in zip format,i transferred the zip files to my xperia p internal storage then disconnected the phone from pc,then I booted the phone In CWM and from there I tried to update CWM by selectin install from zip sd card the zip archive.It said It was succesfull then asked for reboot and that was.After that the phone gone dead,no response from it even when I tried to power it on or to reset it by key combinations nothing worked.Even when I plugged it on charger nothing or in my pc usb.So when this happened my phone was rooted/unlocked bootloader and running latest JB build 6.1.2.A.100.So what I tried so far:i plugged it in wall charger for 6+ hours in hope I will get a life sign from it and nothing.Then I tried to disconnect its battery,i know its non removable but it has a cord attached that can be detached and I did it for about 5 mins.After that I reconnect the battery and plugged it in.Well I got a solid red led on it and I thought oh well it seems it worked but after exactly 15mins the red led goes out and nothing happens after it.At the moment I am writing this the phone already is dead by 24 hrs+.And yea I tried to connect it in flash mode for flashtool but not a sign at all.My pc doesn't detects it.So is there any hope left for my phone?If so please give more solutions.Oh and another thing it seems that after the red light goes off after 15 mins and I unplug it from charger and reconnect it the red led comes again and the process can be repeated.So should I try this way to charge it until it has enough power to do some responses?

if ur bootloader wasn't unlocked use SUS or sony pc suite to recover ur pc .... nd correct title , this isnt hard brick , i think u flashed a kernel from a different device ... if bootloader was unlocked then flash stock ftf using flashtool.. and flashtool works only in windows 7 and below ... making it work in windows 8 is tedious turn off ur phone and then hold volume down button then connect usb cable if green led lights ,that is flashmode

I am running Windows 7 and the bootloader is unlocked.Also I cant use flashtool or any software from pc because the phone it doesn't get detected.But if I plugged it on pc USB it does give a red light for exactly 14 mins then the red led goes off.Also any key pressing or key combinations doesn't help as I don't get any response from phone.So I am really sure its hard brick.Only sign from it is the red led that goes off after 14 mins.
So anymore ideas?Does my phone was hard resetted after I detached the battery for 5 mins and then reattached it?Because before this I didn't got the red led.And also should I try to recharge my phone by pluggin in it in charger wait 14 mins till red led gets off then repeat this process?

And how I am supposed to turn phone off when I get no sign from it when I am pressing volume or power keys.The only sign I get is the red led that after 14 mins goes off.Yea I flashed/updated a wrong CWM for my phone.And how that could screw my phone that bad I don't have any idea.
Just remove the battery chord from the battery (not the charger chord). This means, your phone is in turn off mode. Then reconnect it. Then try those flashmode combinations.
And for any further status 7 issues refer to my guide. Link is in my signature

when red led isnt lit up and ur phone isnt connected to either charger or pc then it means its off ..... then hold only volume down button (u won't get any response right now) then attach usb cable while holding volume down ... green led will definitely light up and then flash stock ftf

Bro, then this may be a hard brick. Try some hardbrick procedures. Or take your device to some local shops. They have a flashing device, which flashes stock firmware. Service centres will cost u very much.

its not hard brick ... in hard brick you don't even get to see the red led ..... this is a basic soft brick because he flashed incompatible kernel which failed bootloader test and hence he is getting this red led .... hard brick = phone becomes paperweight with no led or anything working ....... even charging which does in his case ....... he is just unable to turn on flashmode , (typical case with new users), even i also flashed wrong kernel on my xgo (u cannot even remove battery in that) , i just waited for red led to shut down then holding volume down and then plugging in usb i was able to get flashmode

first remove battery cable for 3-5 mins then reconnect it ...... don't touch the power button ... hold the volume button down.. while holding it down insert usb cable .... (give it 2-6 seconds and DONT LEAVE THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON )the led should now turn on and glow green (flashmode enabled , u shud know the rest i think) don't check if pc detecting or not just check LED green or not first

I don't have anymore warranty left.So I think they will charge me for this.Maybe if I will let the phone more time in charger or with the bat cord detached/unplugged from charger/pc and after that trying again?

if you can try using those "butterfly chargers" , the ones which directly charge battery..... then try this approach cuz flashmode needs 30% battery minimum to run , 75% is recommended

what abut the usb port thats inside the phone it self..you can easly test it by any maintenance friend with avo-meter
edit: can you enter the recovery menu?
try this...
Power off your device.
Boot in recovery mode by pressing and holding Volume Up and Power Button at the same time.
Release all buttons when the Sony Xperia neo L screen flickers and in a few seconds the Recovery screen will appear.

idk about the usb port I will try that, but it responds when put it in charging (only red led blinking). and no recovery mode, while pressing the power button the red led blinks 3times then no more response happens, and I tried to charge it in a whole day after 2hr a light showed in the screen and it happened frequently. No more responses from phone.
