Those who tried to flash xperia u through wrong kernel...it got bricked every time...happened to me also..battery doesn't charge for the wrong kernel so it doesn't boot up....nothing works. ..no fast boot or flash mode
so the fix was...
1.pull out battery
2.charge through auto charger....about 30 minits
3.Put it on...
4.it will vibrate
5.now flash it by going flashmode

Hard Bricked my Xperia U
Hi
I bricked my phone couple of days back
I tried charging using a universal battery charger for couple of hours;
Then tried your steps; but it is not entering the flashmode
I had flashed kernel with CWM and recovery mode was not working I was testing some of the kernels and it got bricked
When I connect the normal wall charger; it shows me steady Red LED for some time and then it goes off
It is not booting or even vibrating
Please suggest
It there a way to give extra power somehow and boot it ?
Regards
Amit Jain
The same happened to me few days ago!
Just keep it charging for 30 mins or so.. the kernel will boot up and them u can further charge it..Worked for me

No; I cannot get it in flash mode or fast mode
Remove the battery and leave the phone for about an hour and hold the power button with the battery removed for about 60seconds an leave the phone again for an hour try to enter flash mode....

Hello all,
I have an Xperia U. And I flashed the Vengeance Kernel for Xperia U (v1.22). But the v1.22 release was bad so my phone wouldn't boot.
I tried putting in the USB with vol button up but now no blue LED lights up. Even Flashmode with Green LED isn't working. When I connect
the USB to phone only the charging LED comes on. The PC also doesn't detect any response. Help, please!
I've tried other threads too, but no solution
Try pull out the battery. Get into fastboot and flash other working kernel.

Not working. When I connect PC to phone with volume buttons pressed, the Charging LED comes on but not the Blue or Green LED
I'm trying to charge the phone for 3-4 hours now, maybe the battery drained out.........

Take out battery for few hours then put it in,don't do anything just connect phone with computer in flash mode and flash stock kernel.
Isn't taking out battery for 20 seconds the same thing as removing battery for hours? I think the phone is failing to charge in the bricked state and thus not fastbooting. Do you recommend a factory charge cable?

Device is not bricked with earlier 1.22 release. It just doesn't boot. Other users who didn't get the device to boot reverted to stock kernel successfully. Where you went wrong?
Does this has something to do wid offline charging??

Hi ,yesterday I faced the same problem when i flashed a kernal for xperia sola ,
I tried this procedure( with full charge ) , & i got my mobile back to normal state
try to hold both power button & vol+ button for 5 sec (upto 3 to 5 vibrations) ,
and leave the button .After that ur mobile should start normally
FYI
After reboot, touchscreen willn't responds after 30 to 50sec bcz of corrupt kernel ,so i did FACTORY DATA RESET before it go to non-responeded state.
Now , my mobile is back to normal .
Hopefully this process may solve ur problem.

Which version you tried flashing and on which Rom you were when you flashed the kernel???????
Sent from my Xperia Sola using xda app-developers app
My phone is back online. As doctor sanket said the kernel which wouldn't boot, didn't allow my already almost drained battery not to charge. After a day of thought, I powered up my Xperia through splicing a USB cable and gave it just enough charge for one fast boot. I flashed a working kernel and then offline charging worked.... Earlier the phone just didn't have any power to respond

Please try to find a way to remove your battery. Maybe your battery is dead and the spoilt kernel isn't allowing it to charge

Sir i have been using the kernel and the rom for the last 10 days or so, and this happened suddenly do you think that the problem is because of the kernel ?? i mean the kernel was in use for the past 10 days this could have happened before only if the kernel is spoiled, any suggestions ??

Hey guys,
I have a problem with the screen of my Galaxy S3, I locked the phone and 2 minutes later when I pressed the power button to get to the unlock screen, it turned white (see the picture I attached). The phone didn't fell or hit something, nor enter in contact with a liquid, I mean for no reason I got the scrambled white screen. I took out the battery and reboot but once the phone boots there's the white screen.
If anybody as encoutered the same issue and found a solution please let me know.
Thanks
Can you still enter download mode or recovery mode?

I was just messaging people on fb ...and sudddenly my phone's screen went black then i thought it was just a temporary issue...as it was almst deaad
then i removed the battery and for an hour or so then ire-inserted the battery and tried to turn on by pressing the power button nothing happened
so i decide to re-flash the rom...i removed the battery and pressed the down volume button and reinserted the battery opened up the flash tool connected the phone via usb in flash mode thank god it got connected in flash mode and i flashed stock GB
now everything went fine after the flashing got over i tried to start the phone
i pressed the power button result:NOTHING
i then flashed a custom kernel and then pressed reboot the phone got connected in flash mode so i tried to flash the stock
to my suprise the device got force booteed :highfive:
now i tested the phone in each and every aspect known to me everything works fine....even the power button is ok!!1
but i switched off the phone to insert the memory card and tried to Power it UP Nothing happens what could be the problem??
i mean the Phone is ok as it gets connected in Flash mode as well as Fast-boot Mode
the power button is ok!!!as i tested it when the phone Booted up! :laugh:

Highlights:- doesn't show charging symbol or Indication when connected with charger and when connected to USB it automatically goes into flash mode(when turned off)
everything worked fine when it was ON!!!HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
You most likely have issue with your screen. When you power it up duz it vibrate?
If I be at your place I stud Flash stock and take it back where I got it from.most likely it's a HW issue

Could it simply be a battery problem? Try changing battery (use a battery from a friend's xperia ray to try). Maybe that's the problem
What ROM/kernel were you using, when you were "messaging on FB"? Any overclocking?

not sure.. but try this one below.... using latest version of flashtool connect your phone to pc in Flashmode and flash this ftf file below
DOWNLOAD:Unbrick your Xperia
let me know if it works!!
P.S: flashmode means press your volume down button while the phone is switched off and connect it to pc then the notification LED will glow green
YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please charge your phone through wall charger...not with a pc...you got an empty battery.Let it charge for a while.Then you can flash with flashtool

Maybe you can try directly flash with flashtool or SUS...you need at least 40-50% battery.This proedure need you to turn off your phone.
Maybe your battery need replacement?
The cause of your problem is vary...
use new charged battery and flash stock
or
SUS

New day new problem mate! (just kidding)
Did you install any mods? Are you sure it's not releated with the debloat you made?
EDIT: I found also this guide for force shut down:
1.Power + Vol Up + wait for 3 rumbles (make it 4 if you count the first standalone rumble)
2.It will be a total shutdown and you can start your phone normally by pressing Power key again...
Factory reset helped. Sill dont know what was the problem.
