I tried to update my Xperia Neo, but someone managed to pull out the Usb cable when the phone began to flash. Now i'm facing a bricked phone, imposible to enter in Flash mode or Fastboot mode as I did before(no green led, no blue led, nothing). I pulled out the battery for 1 hour, rom prepared everything, but after I insert the usb cable by holding the back button, instead of flash mode, a "Sony Ericsson" screen apears without the green logo. I cant shut down the phone from the on/off button, cant flash, cant do nothing to get it back to live. When the "Sony Ericsson" screen apears, the pc makes that hardware connecting sound, and pc companion pops out telling me: "phone connected" and shows furter steps...but I can see only the "se" screen, no flashing or updating program can connect my phone no more. Please help me with a solution to be able to flash (repair) phone. I've tried: wotan, flash tool, FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick, Octopus suite, Omnius for SE, Se update, PC Companion, Seus, no results (can't connect into Flash mode, the phone cant be seen). I respected all the steps, flashed it succesfull several times. Thank you in advance, and have a great day! Sorry for long post and bad english.

Of course your phone is unrooted, these ftf files are unrooted
To check dial *#*#7378423#*#* -> Service Info -> Configuration -> Rooting Status. Please tell us what's there :good:
use custom kernel.

Oh man, why did you do an OTA Update? Never ever do an OTA update with unlocked bootloader!
Look in the pinned thread by someguyfromhell, there's an unbricking guide

Try reflashing ftf again. For that do the following steps:
1. Take battery off the phone
2. Wait 10 seconds
3. Open flashtool -> select the firmware -> click ok
4. When the window to put phone in flashmode appears, plug the battery in your phone again
5. Hold volume down and while holding connect phone to pc. Don't press anything else, just hold volume down
6. Wait until the flasing process has ended
And now you should be fine
Oh man each and every guide regarding unlocking bootloader advices u to Not to accept any OTA updates. Why did u do that?
please mark this thread with [SOLVED] tag if your ploblem is solved.

Okay so you have installed all the drivers for flashtool and PC Companion?
What have you done with your phone, on which software version have you been, is your bootloader locked/unlocked, are you on a custom rom/kernel?
Please give us more information and we can maybe help you
Hi George,
It looks like your phone has gone into a factory mode as said in this thread.
You might want to send it to warranty repair if your bootloader is still intact and your warranty period isn't over or you might want to try different key combinations to wake your phone from coma (that's what it looks like) . If you manage to boot your device using different key combinations then immediately put your phone in A/C charging. After full charge do a factory reset and repair your phone using seus (this might work but not guaranteed) . For more info google "qhsusb_dload xperia" and also read the above mentioned link carefully.
Good luck!
Press thanks if I helped you.

This issue is a rarity. It is generally a device fault or happens when you play with the device's bootloader in the way you shouldn't. I've read somewhere it means that there is no bootloader in the device and the phone is waiting to be flashed with a bootloader and that's why it's called the factory mode. ( I can't verify my sources on this ).

My mobile Sony Xperia Neo L is not getting switched on. It got turned off on its own. My mobile was under the below explained situation before it stopped working.
1. I was getting alerts saying - LOW PHONE MEMORY IS AVAILABLE delete some data. It had 43 MB left in phone memory.
2. Memory card was also full the day before.
3. I was not able to install any applications.
4. Since I have activated the auto update for few applications like Whatsapp, google maps etc. For them also i used to get alerts saying - INSUFFICIENT STORAGE IS AVAIALABLE TO UPDATE the software.
5. I always keep Wi-Fi on in my mobile. (If any open Wi-Fi is available mobile will get updates)
6. Battery was more than 30% charged.
All of the above may be the reasons for software problem.
No time in the past phusical harm happened to the phone, Since i bought in 2012 August.
I had gone through Sony Support Center to repair, but still it didnt worked.
Could any one help me to solve the problem ?

One last try you can give... Connect your phone to the charger and check if the led turns on.. Or else connect USB to the phone... While plugging it to the computer, hold the back button.... Check for the led light to turn GREEN... If this happens, then nothing wrong has happened to your phone.. Else no one can help you... PM me for further help..

If led turns green than install flash tool to your PC, download latest ftf file for your phone and flash the ftf to your phone. But flash not whole rom parts, only flash kernel within that ftf.

it doesn't matters where you are... Download flashtool... Install it... Then you need a firmware file for your phone... Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2047914.. Download whichever firmware file you want... .587 is recommended... If you want you can have .631 also... after downloading the .ftf file, place it in firmwares folder of the flashtool installed folder... open flashtool.. Click on lightning icon.. It will ask 'flashmode' or 'fastboot'.. select flashmode... Then select the .ftf which you placed now.. Uncheck 'no final verification' option... Then connect your phone to the PC by holding the back button on ur phone... After the flashing is finished, switch on your phone... its done..

Switch off the phone.. Hold the "back" button and connect your phone to computer.. The LED should turn GREEN... It means that computer is recognising your phone.. Otherwise there might b some problem in the drivers or in the phone.. I cannot help you unless you can explain what you did before your phone entered into such state...

If LED is turning on, then its a good news that your phone is not dead. If nothing is getting displayed on the screen, then you might have fried up the internal circuitry. I have ended up with it. It cost me 25% of mobile's cost to get it repaired again.

Xperia Neo L bricked ....
Hi All,
I think i have bricked my xperia neo l to a pretty bad shape.....Please help me ...
1)I rooted the phone sucessfully with the kit developed by DoomsLord
2)I installed the cwm recovery, took backup.
3)I did not flash the kernel but went ahead with the ICS revolution ROM Xperia NEO L:crying:
4)Installation of ICS went fine but the phone was stuck in the boot mode. Sony screen used to come and device used to boot......
Here is the stupid part..
5) I tried to go to recovery it didn`t work.. I thought maybe the kernel is a problem..I used the ICS kernel and flashed it.
Nothing works now...When i connect my cell to the laptop windows says device not recognized..I am trying to go to flashboot mode not working...Is there a way to fix it ? If yes please provide me any pointers...

Dear friend.....

When u charge ur phone,try to read carefully every step how install the custom rom u want....
After that...
-Flash full firmware via flashtool (flashmode)
Let ur phone on first...
And after ur phone works,its up to u maybe u want to continue another step to install custom rom u want....
But dont forget to flash the custom kernel recommended by the dev first before u do another step....
(flash custom kernel via fastboot)...
Hope it help and good luck.....

I was using XZXperience 2 on my Sony Xperia S, and then sony companion detected that i had firmware 6.1.A.1.45 and 6.1.A.55 was available, so just to give it a try, I installed that update, but that is a failed update, it says unfortunately music player stopped working, or unfortunately xperia keyboard stopped working etc. The main problem is that my system does not recognize my XS anymore, it says USB Device Not Recognized, so I cant connect it to Flashtool or PC Companion for repair. The Sad part is that I cant even connect it in Flash Mode, I tried a hard reset by using power button and volume up buttons, but no use. I should mention that once it recognized my phone when i turned off my laptop and removed its battery too, after restarting both phone and laptop, flashtool detected that phone was connected with USB Debugging OFF, though it was on, but as a try, I unchecked USB Debugging and then checked it again, and it worked. Now my Xperia S was connected in USB debugging mode, I tried to install busybox, rooted it, and tried to install CWM recovery,flashtool said that busy box was installed and phone was rooted, but it could not install recovery and I used another tool to install recovery,which had a bat file and it installs recovery automatically. But it didnt. After restarting my phone, the same issue appeared again, My PC does not recognize my Xperia S, tried previous procedure several times, but no use. Cant even repair it as my set cant go in flash mode. What can I do? have I bricked my Xperia S? I`m in Pakistan and there is no official Sony Mobile franchise as they dont launch their flagships in Pakistan. Please help me, considering I`m used to with rooting,flashing etc. How can I connect my phone in flash mode? Thank you.
Thanx

It looks like another strike from the productors. They usually send you malicious updates which cause your device to stop working. This only happens to rooted phones which run custom roms. And since the rooted users only flash their roms in zip format, sending an OTA update patch(designed for stock rom) to a custom rom can only lead to a malfunction. I am not sure whether or not sony did that on purpose, but the truth is that after installing a custom rom NEVER do OTA updates(unless they are from the rom's developer).
If you want an update check your rom's thread and there may be new flashable versions.
As for making your device work, the only thing you can do is to call technical support or go to a phone service(in my country they are called gsm services, and they fix mostly everything, both hardware and software. Some even claim to be able to fix water damage) but given that your warranty is voided, you will have to pay for the reparations. I guess they will only do a re-soft(delete everything, and install the stock version, you may lose your root, i am not sure here.)
I hope this helps, this is how we fix things like this in our country, so it will work in your case too, hopefully.

Thanx for your advice. I was almost hopeless, but after spending continous 16 hours, I`m now able to get a solution. I got another data cable, removed battery of my laptop, and made a hard reset to my phone, and after 10-15 min I tried again, and Thanx GOD, it detected my phone, so I hurriedly start repair my phone option and connected my phone in flash mode which was successful and that was not less than a miracle, because i`ve been repeating same procedure and it was not working, this time luckily it worked, now i`m using stock rom with firmware 6.1.A.2.55. Now I would either wait for official Sony JB Update or I would flash a custom ROM XZXperience 2, which I found awsome, as it had no bugs, and it improved battery and sound quality was significantly imrpove + Bravia Engine 2 with improved graphics. I would ask users to not to give up hope, there is always a solution to every problem.

Get a new data cable, fortunately almost all phone now a days have same data cable, u can try data cable of some HTC, Samsung, Blackberry or even Iphone`s data cable. Secondly, u must turn off your PC, and remove its power source, if it is laptop then also remove its battery. Then after 5-10 minutes, turn on your PC and connect the phone. Also try installing drivers, which u can by using PC Companion. You can also install drivers by using FlashTool. Download it and extract it, then go to the installation folder and look for folder "Drivers" open it and u will see an exe file. Just run it and select Xperia S and follow the instructions.
maybe not new usb cable sometimes usb port is broken
Hey, I had the same problem a few time ago, you can try to restore with flashtool, if you can still get in to flash mode

It's impossible it could work

Since you CAN'T use custom kernels with locked bootloader (and so, no cm10)
You only need to flash stock rom and then relocking your bootloader

I am also having the same problem
I have sony Xperia S. I updated to the latest stock firmware version(6.2.B.1.96). after this update I rooted my phone using old kernel .200 and update the firmware's kernel again to stock after that I locked the boot loader again. Now I can't use memory stick that I used to use before with OTG cable. And now, if I am trying to enter flash mode by pressing volume down key, the led turn green for a while only about 10 sec while this was happening, my pc say that USB device not recognized. So, now I can't use flashtool or sony update service tool(SUS) as well.
Now I am using stock .96 rom with no error but I want to install CWM and also want to unlock boot loader again to test some custom roms.
Pls help me what I have to do and what should. I am now in Delhi.

To unlock the bootloader you need to enter fastboot (blue led) with vol+ during the boot, not vol-
Or you can also reboot the phone from adb with
adb reboot bootloader
If phone still doesn't stick to fastboot, it has to be a driver problem
There are lots of guide on the procedure (which is really hard on windows 8)

Yes I use windows 8.1
now. I can't use memory stick with OTG cable but I can only use mouse or keyboard with OTG cable. I don't know why?
I can access fastboot mode but I can't access flash mode. pc said that device not recognized. so, I think it is device error.

I dont really understand what you did
But my advice is: unlock your BL and enjoy the magic of aosp ROMs (magic included inside doomkernel for stock sony is fine too)

Bricked my phone - please help!
Hi,
I think I bricked my Xperia S. I already had cyanogen 10 on my phone, so I thought I could just flash the new Cyanogen 11 4.4.2 ROM and GAPPS over top. I followed the instructions but I skipped the Fastboot step. I cleared the cache and system and then went ahead with the ROM and GAPPS. Once the ROM and GAPPS were installed, I selected "Reboot" and the phone turned off and now it won't boot at all. If I hold the power button, I get a faint vibration and if I hold the up volume and power I get the 3 vibration sequence but no boot. Please help!
