[Q] [Really Need Help] Xperia Neo would not start, only shows "sony ericsson" :(
Hi guys, I am new to this forum and a new smartphone user.
Last night I was updating my phone through PC companion, but the software dies half way for some unknown reason. Since then I could not turn on my phone.. It will only vibrates, shows "Sony Ericsson", and then an image of yellow triangle with an exclamation mark shows up, then it is turned off again. I tried charging, restarting my pc companion software to try to update my phone, but none of them work.
I saw some threads here and it seems that there are possible solutions, but because the terminology is quite strange to me I could not fully understand what I have to do What is a flashtool and SEUS? I tried to search them up on the net but the downloads seem to be unavailable?? I must be missing something here.
If anyone can help me with simple terminology I will really really appreciate it.. Thanks a lot!
Your phone's boot loader unlocked or not & if yes what method?(s1tool,official SE or setool2 paid) ? Here's a good tutorial about flashtool.

Hi,
This is my suggestion:
first download FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126358
Follow instructions (if u familiar with updating with sony ericsson pc companion, this u can do)
Simple, start FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick, click flash. Choose loader.sin on the right. Then click OK,
Turn of phone, hold in back button while connect phone with usb cable.
See its flashing, wait til its done, unplug phone,. try to boot up phone.
I am also a newbie, but this worked for me
pls give me a link to download SEUS, for xperia neo pls. pls help I am having the same problem pls help,

I don't think link is right mate, 404 page not found
Anyway @lilbunnyf if your phones boot loader is unlocked using s1tool method do not use seus or pc companion.As I read in forum this can brick your phone.Try flashtool.If you got a locked boot loader or patched one with setool2 then you can use pc companion(this thing saved my phone like 5-6 times now after kinda bricking it with roms kudos se for this xD)

Most likely the post #3. That should help.
I have the same problem...
but mine already unlock using s1tool, rooted using zergexploit and using cwm...
i wanted to install se tweak so i use cwm the installation is complete after rebooting my phone is bricked... so please... im begging help me...
i've tried using flashtool to reflash to stock but i cant get my phone connected... it seems i cant go to fastboot mode...
I managed to get stuck in a boot loop today. I have a locked bootloader and SEUS did the job, so I guess that is the best solution for the problem mentioned by OP.

Since you unlock it via s1tool, you should still be able to use SEUS.
Anw, why fastboot mode? Have you tried to connect it in flashmode?

Try reflashing the rom again and use it for some time without trying to unlock the bootloader. First be sure the rom is flashed perfectly and working fine. If everything works ok, you can go ahead with other experiments (of course at your own risk.) By the way, someone was saying Telcel might have not added the bootloader unlock feature in this rom. Just a possibility.
EDIT: The symptom you have mentioned "phone keeps connecting and disconnecting" known behavior (see post 7th point), while installing fastbook mode drivers. Seem your phone has come in fastboot mode (but still locked) and no fastboot drivers yet installed. Installing it is really very tricky. Follow that post carefully.

Which rom you had before? Was it rooted and cwm on? Can you start phone in CWM mode (VolumeUp+Home+Power keys)? If yes, you can flash your cwm backup and be back on your previous rom.
I hope both of you people took nandroid backup (on external sdcard) before flashing.

But can you bring phone in SW upgrade Mode?
I think part of the problem was following the omap4boot. It flashes files to the phone which are not for our phone. I have done the same thing.
When I use the "Phone Tester" app from Play Store, under system info, it says the device is a "U2". This is wrong.
Screenshot here
I dont have any access to fastboot mode anymore as far as i can tell. I cant install clockworkmod on my phone now. Im trying to understand what changed by following the omap4boot guide.

Have patience and do not panic. This phone is really unbrickable, if not physically damaged.
I am not sure what is the status of your phone right now. But keep the fastboot thing aside and give priority to restore phone and make it properly working.
Remove all LG programs from pc, remove all LG drivers from pc and Restart PC. Now install latest LG PC Suite, and put phone in SW Upgrade mode and connect to pc and let all LG drivers install itself.
Do not let windows install any WDM drivers by clicking on this link while drivers are loaded. Do this always for any phone any device you connect to pc. Correct drivers already installed with PC Suite will load quickly.
Now run PC Suite and select Emergency Firmware Recovery option. Now LG PC suite should download fresh ROM and recover your phone.
================
If this fails, keeping phone in SW Upgrade mode, you can still try same with B2CAppClient as shown in 5A part of this thread. Click on "Start Updating"
================
Above both are online method and will need faster internet so rom is downloaded.
In the fastboot thread it clearly says to say no to the prompt that asks you if you want to flash u-boot. If you replaced your u-boot you need to get an original copy of the u-boot for your phone. I think Lelus has a post somewhere, but I don't know if its for your phone specifically. Search for Lelus x&u.
P.S. I've done same thing before and you should definitely be able to enter fastboot and get it sorted out again.
---------- Post added at 05:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------
I can't seem to find the u-boot x-loader fix Lelus uploaded for someone. You have to look or maybe PM him.

Great. Glad I could help. :highfive:
See, I told you "Have patience and do not panic. This phone is really unbrickable, if not physically damaged. "
I always talk with screenshots Ok, which method it worked? PC Suite or B2C? Which rom it flashed V20A?
You can easily root any locked bootloader JB with Lelus method, if you are familiar to flashing with offline fix. Will be safer+quicker to newbies.

Hi Joseph CZ, perhaps you could try with adb via USB (from SDK tools), I'm not sure, though.
I think the easiest way is rooting and moving what you want...

you can try cmahendra sir's 2 in 1 guide or if you can, go service centre, tell them that a update (0TA) showed, AND THEN this is happening. they will.install software for you. as warranty is over, they might charge (5$ here) for software work. I did a hell lot deep **** then you, kept working 6 hours, but wasn't able to fix the phone,went service centre and now typing via same phone.

man service centre, like you have for Nokia, Samsung etc, you can Google LG mobile service centre around your locality,.
doesn't matter it's metro or p778,768,765,760 etc etc etc.
as your warranty is over, you have no fear of them saying warranty void, as ultimately they will charge for the software transaction.
and I know how it feels to see your phone dying on you.
JUST DONT LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU KNOW ABOUT ROOTING /BL/FASTBOOT .act like a dumb and tell them that you were trying to update your software by the wifi (software update OTA) and now this happened.
sweet talks makes way everywhere.

Hi @Aristodikos1, you have an option for installing the drivers in the LG Tool (up- left corner). If the on line tool sees your L9 that's enough, just follow the steps : Update / Tools / Upgrade recovery.
I'm not on my computer right now.

Hi all,
Thanks in advance for any help. I originally was attempting to root my phone following this guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277639. I was able to use the software update tool several times to flash to V20B and V20D. After a few tries, I read on the authors forum to flash to v10g as I was having some issues (got the CWM L9 Recovery tool installed, and after booting to it, got stuck on encrypting). So I flashed down to v10g. After that, phone wouldn't boot. So have attempted to use the upgrade tool to flash back to V20D or B and have tried following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344. Even though I can get the S/W Upgrade screen, the software upgrade tool keeps stopping at 15% and tells me the cellphone is not connected. Even though I had gotten it to work before at this same method, I re-installed the drivers and even tried the whole process on a 2nd computer with no luck. I'm guessing the downgrade to v10g is the cause of the issues I'm having, but do not have any idea at this point how to fix it. I have spent hours searching the forums, but have not found a solution yet, so any help or links to posts that could help would be appreciated.
I have the P769.
And if you happen to know why I get stuck on encrypting after using and rebooting from L9 recovery tool, that would be an added bonus. (found it, looks like it was busybox x, will try when I get phone back up).
I have tried on computer running Win 7 64 bit and Win 8 64 bit.
Thanks!

I actually found that post while at work and will be the first thing I try. I also may try fastboot if that does not work. I will report back tonight if it works.

Hi willevans, if you patched your hosts file for the off line kdz flash method, remember to erase the two lines added.
Good luck.

I followed your directions. It seems like we have made progress but am still having issues. It did install some updated drivers, and with the online LG support Tool, seems to find the connection, but stops due to an error at 15%. I also noticed that the screen goes black on my phone and S/W upgrade is no longer displayed. Don't know if there is a timeout were it does this or it is shutting off because of the update process and not coming back on.

I do not see that option. Let me confirm that we are running the B2CAppSetup (LG Mobile Support Tool) and not the UpTestEX_mod2_marwin (R&D Test Tool) program at this point.
Nvm, it looks like with the update, even running the R&D Test Tool, it takes you to the LG Mobile Support tool which will crash if you have it blocked. Same results when not blocked, stops at 15%.

The only options in the LG Mobile Support Tool is: Options and Help in upper right hand corner. Under options is country/language and Upgrade Recovery. On lte left side shows my model once it is connected and gives me greyed out install usb driver option and start upgrade. Those are the only options.Here is an image of what I have.

Still stops at 15%. I have also tried running fastboot. I get about halfway, but when it comes to the part to reconnect to the phone, it just hangs.
Well, using fastboot, I have got the LG tool to now progress past the analysis part and get to the actual update part, but now stops at 15% there. Progress, but am at a loss at what to try at this point.
To sum up, phone will not boot at this point. Can get to S/W upgrade mode on phone. Phone stops at 15% at update portion.
I have tried the offline and online update methods, along with fastboot (get through the entire steps on the computer, but at end screen shows LG logo with fastboot in corner, don't know if this is normal).
I have tried a few more solutions to no success. Luckily, my phone was still under warranty with T-Mobile for about 2 weeks, so sent it in since it wouldn't turn on (unless you did S/W upgrade mode). Hopefully, they wont notice why. Thank you for your suggestions Bojo.

Finally i managed to get the phone in SW upgrade mode, then i tried to flazh the kdz following this tutorial http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f77...h-any-lg-factory-rom-kdz-offline-fix-1736209/
Everything ok, the program recognize the phone and start to flash, but as before the phone turns of and the process fail.
Considering that the phone stop working after turn it off removing the battery, there is the posibility that the battery or the phone is damaged ?
Hi andr_oid, the link you've provided is just a copy of "our" @cmahendra's link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36351786
You could try with other battery, but I think that's not your problem.
