Hello people
I have a problem and do not know what to do help me
My ultra z is in 4.2.2, not yet updated to not lose the root, then to not have to do again.
But come on, the problem is ...
Out of nowhere the phone off and just do not care anymore!
He dies, does not care nothing happens.
It connects just me pushing the buttons POWER + VOL UP
Then yes it connects, has anyone had this problem?
Will be android? Or some physical defect?
Note: He already dropped to the floor once, but nothing happened externally.
Please help me, I do not know what to do ...
Is it bug in android, if I go to kat kit will this stop?
Help me, thanks
English is not the best but I'll try and work around that the best I can...
So the phone just powered off by it's self?
Just pressing the power button for 3 seconds wont turn it on?
If you connect it to a PC in this state does the device show up at all, and what does it show up as?
- I think it may just be an the "Sleep of Death"
When you hold the power and Vol + keys it will vibrate 3 times and then boot normally? Does it fully boot?
If it is the SoD bug that you have updating the firmware will fix it, What is the firmware version at now ie 14.1.B.1.???
I am Brazilian, I am trying to communicate by the translator, sorry
The build is 510. (Android 4.2.2 / Z Ultra C6833)
If I try to connect it with power nothing happens.
This error happened to me 3x already.
I bind the socket to the charger.
When I boot with power + vol up vol it vibrates 3x and does not start,
but at least one image of the phone is charging, after that I usually call with the power button appears.
On the first day this happened, I tried to turn it power + vol up and found out there when it happens again at least I know to solve, but it's boring to do that every time and also get worried.
anything if you do not understand right, just copy and paste the text into a translator I think it will do better for you, thank you friend.

I think that you have the Sleep of Death bug that was in firmware older than build 532.
To fix this just flash a newer firmware with flashtool. If you are going to root it use 14.1.B.1.532 as it is the last that is rootable via an exploit, if you aren't going to root it just use the Sony PC Companion software to upgrade the phone to the newest firmware.
I update for kit kat (build 681) right?
I think it already came out a way to make root it ...
this bug is common in all z ultra 4.2? why my friend has one just like it and never gave it to him;/

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.

Hi first sorry for my bad english but i will do my best.
So heres the story, i tried to root my GF phone in order to install CM 10.2, i was able to install safestrap but i deleted something and now the phone dont even power one. I mean when i do any combinaison of Power + Volume up or down or even Power + volume up and down at the same time nothing hapen, No motorola logo, nothing append.
But i saw something, when the phone is plugged in usb and i try to boot it with volume down + power i saw an: OMAP thing in device manager... but ... it appear, disapear like 20 time in row and stop to appear after 2 minute i mean my comp detect, delete, detect, delete if you know whats i mean
The phone is a Rogers XT910 GSM phone it was working number one prior flashing but now it dont power on. Any idea ? i searched a lot on xda, tried almost anything, but nothing work.
I flash phone on a daily basis but never flashed a motorola phone before
So, let's go, let me help you mate...
1 - turn off your phone;
2 - press and hold every single physical button together (power, Vol+, Vol-)
3 - You will see a recovery screen (like an DOS on computer)
4 - Pressing Vol- you change the options, Vol+ you select any option there
5 - Enter the option: AP Fastboot
6 - Download the program called RSDLite
7 - Download a full official retail JB rom
8 - Install this rom using RSDLite
9 - After you pass whole process succesfully, your phone is ready to be used again.
Remember: CHARGE your phone to 100%, because the process is slow and your battery will drain fast, so have sure you did a long charge before installing the rom again.
I was direct on the answer...if you have any doubt...so ask...

Bit more detail how you bricked it installing CWM. What exactly you done and where you get it from.
Try to shut it down, press power + volume up untill you feel (1+) 3 vibrations.
See if you can connect it in flash mode (connect usb to pc while you hold volue down), the led should turn green.

First I'd like to thank's for your help ChikeD!
Well.... I was trying to install the new CM 11 Nightly Build - a custom ROM build on Android 4.4.2 KitKat- on my Sony Xperia P device
I had rooted succesfully and was seaching for an app on google play store to provide access to "recovery mode" that works with my LT 22i to finish the installation of this new rom... i tryed lot of apps, but no one worked... and so I've found this app "Recover X" from LEDelete developer.
after install and run, this app show me one option to get access to recovery mode... i dont remember exactly, but i saw somethig like "CMW......" on screen. after download, I tryed to reboot my phone and then its completly dead!! i'd tryed any kind of possibility pressing buttons dowloading softwares and more but my computers didn't recongize it when connect USB cable...
vol+ / power dont work, vol- / usb dont work, no charging indicator, no lights blinks, nothing works! it looks like a motherboard without any operational system...
And I saw in some websites that exist one JIG for Samsung devices that alows recovery phones with problems like mine... so i wonder if is possible to find some JIG for Xperia P or any other possibility of reinstallation of android system
I hope i made myself clear because I'm still learning this language... that means I'm sorry for my bad english in advice...
If there is anything that you can't understand, please let me know
Thank's a lot!

If you had asked before I would have told you Recovery X won't work, didn't work the 2 times I have tried it, but didn't brick my phone eithr.
To incatal CM you didn't neet to root or install CWM since you need to flash it's kernel anyway.
Is your bootloader unlocked?
Was the phone fully charged when it happened, did it start boot and then died or just went black?
Have you tried to hold the power + volume up for 10-15 minutes?
To reinstall firmware you need flash mode (volume down while connecting to USB), have you flashed with flashtool or PC Companion before?

Yes i had reinstalled twice by flash tool and pc companion, holding vol down while connecting to USB, because the device was with very low performance.
When i was trying to get rebooted on "recovery mode" before the black screen, my battery was on 85%....
Yesterday i tried to do "hard reboot" holding the power + volume up for 50 minutes and nothing....
Actually what i really need is find a way to get some response of the system of this phone (by connecting in some jig, or doing something with the software or even the hardware...), because if my computer recognize the phone, i do believe that i'll can handle with reinstallation... in other words, my challenge now it's only get out from the black screen for any other operational response
One of my ideas is unmount rear cover and try to disconnect the battery cord for 10 minutes and see if something changes... but i'm fully opened to new ideas
I really believe that i'll succeed on this case with yours precious help!!
Thank you again for your assistance!

As I know, there is no way to power on a phone with a defect power button. I think, the best sollution is to inform yourself, how much a repair is costing.

It is impossible, the button is stuck to the main board, I mean the only repair is to replace the card, better to buy a new phone.
For there I saw:
This has a very easy solution ... q first have to download the FlashTool version ultim ... then a q see've installed and executed proceed to connect your mobile via USB cable to the computer by pressing and holding the Volume Down immediately you walk ... looking in the toolbar ... advanced tab and go to the last option says q reboot which reboots the phone from the computer ... you must choose the option to reboot recovery + default version and force the phone to reboot and turn this will return the phone to its factory state
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but i not have the option "reboot recovery + default version" in my flashtool
You can enter fastboot using volume up then "fastboot reboot" on cmd/terminal or any tool using that is using fastboot. Other option, you have spare time look for kernel without offline charging support.
Both is applicable for unlocked bootloader. Else, try the flashtool mentioned in above post.
I had the same problem and found a solution.
this works on a wt19a Live With Walkman.
1)plug charger
2)wait until the battery charging screen appears and remove just the battery
3)wait a few seconds(it can take some time) until the screen turns on again and put the battery back in.
if this doesn't work, wait a few seconds after you remove the battery (10 secs or so) and put it back in BEFORE the screen turns on again.
and if that doesn't work, do the same steps but holding the volume up button when plugging the charger, and when putting the battery back in until the sony ericsson colourful booting up logo appears. It will boot up the phone with the date wrong but you just have to change it.
I found this method after hours and hours and hours of research, founding nothing useful and reading that there was no way to do this and blah blah. This works perfectly for my phone and will work for yours too, just do it several times if it doesn't work at first because sometimes there can be an error of synchronization and won't work . I hope this helps somebody.
Dear Sir/Mdm,
This is Linn Myanmar and I am from Myanmar, Stayed in Singapore, working as an engineer.
I just bought my phone (Elephone S8) one week before and I tired rooting with tutorials from XDA forum (using flash tool, driver).
Yes, the phone has been rooted properly as root checker said and I tried installing Updated SuperSU from setting>About Phone>System Update>Local Updates>Updated SuperSU.zip.
After that the phone has rebooting with logo and never show any result and the phone just happened the screen on and off repeatedly until now.
So that please help me how to solve this and get back to its normal operation. I've tried long pressing on power button, long pressing on power button+volume up button, long pressing on power button+volume up button+volume down button quite many time, but those doesn't work and the phone hasn't come back it's normal operation.
Help me please.
With Best Regards,
Linn Myanmar

Hi Linn
How did you solve your problem?
Hi have exactly the same problem at this moment and, as you, I tried everything (except the hammer but it was close...)
Really need a solution for this!
I like the phone but this way I have to buy another one and other brand for sure...
Thanks (from Portugal)
I suppose you both solved this, one war or other, but maybe someone else looks for a solution to this.
As the S8 is a MTK-phone, it's never really "dead" until it's defective. You can always revive it. So stay cool.
All you need is a Windows-PC with working VCOM-drivers, the SP-Flash-Tool and a ROM. You can get all that on www.elephone.hk/downloads (at least until today... if it's no longer there, you need to google for all that).
The problem is to shut the phone off.
Of course you can just let it boot-loop until the battery is empty, if you can take the time.
Otherwise there's no simple and foolproof way to shut it off if it's in loop.
Try everything you can imagine with the three buttons. Especially pressing the power-button for "ages". Try pressing any volume-button simultaneously, too. I had my S8 bricked to bootloop several times yesterday and today, while fiddling around with all ROMs I could find.
Sooner or later I got the phone to shut off. I somehow got it into the testing-menu, too, which is yellow and chinese and which won't help you.
I even somehow managed to boot into recovery several times, which offers "shutdown"-option. I have the impression that the S8 enters recovery eventually when it fails to boot often enough, but that's just a guess.
Anyway, once the phone is off, you have won.
Start the SP-Flash-Tool, load the scatter-file from your desired ROM (which is probably 20171018), unplug the phone, press "download", and then plug the phone to USB. You might have to press vol+ oder vol- while plugging it in, but if it's recognized, the SP Flash Tool will start flashing the ROM and your phone is up and running again.
Problem solved
I think this is too complex anyway.
The battery was empty after some days.
It was too bad lose so many information but I had to live with that.
So, finally the hammer solve the problem in less then a second...
Thank you very much. Is nice to know there are people helping to solve some problems.

Please also find all required files for rooting the Elephone S8 at:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/k1ldc..._root.rar/file
I hope this helps.
To turn phone off, hold all 3 buttons for about 15 seconds the phone will look like it's powering down but then restart after about 2 seconds just KEEP holding all 3 buttons and it will power off properly. In other words hold all 3 buttons for about 45 secs to power down if in a boot loop. Once powered down hold volume down whilst plugging into USB to flash.
