hi. so my problem is that my phone does not turn on, i cant go to recovery or do hard reset. the phone react when i plug it in PC without battery, but its always connect and disconnect over and over again. i have downloaded the omap drivers and instaled it. now i have in the device manager a OMAP4430 FastBoot USB device. by the drivers was a fastboot emulator. but when i will flash rom, kernel or recovery a just get partition does not exist. can someone help me please? srry for english.
Does your phone not turn on at all when holding down the power button? If it boots up, and gets stuck on a loop or has an error message, that is different. But if it doesn't turn on at all, then your battery is dead or something is wrong with your phone's hardware. If you connect your phone to the PC (with the battery on), does it at least show a light? Or does it boot up at all when you hold the power button? If it doesn't show a light or boot up, it is not your battery, but your phone's hardware. Your phone might have been dropped or water inside it or it was microwaved? I know it sounds silly, but something happened to the phone physically. Now if you connect it to the PC and you see a light but it never boots, your device is bricked. Not accusing you, but you might have tried rooting it or writing over a partition on your phone which caused to brick. Also, try typing in fastboot devices. If it shows up a device, that means it is connected. Cheers!
No the phone does not turn on and it shows nothing, even when i put it on charger. If i connect to pc with battery after i installed the omap driver it just connect and disconnect over and over again, windows make this sound when you connect and disconnect something. I have flashed a new rom. It has worked but after some time its stoped. So i have try flashed it again but i could not get in recovery. A files was missing and after i try flashing thhe recovery its just dead. I can connect it just with the fastboot emulator because it's don't connect when i just put it on pc. I must connect it without battery wait 4 sec and then put the battery back. Than i can see in the emu my phone but not able flash anything because of partition does not exist

Hello,
I isntalled that rom with kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391858. and the problem is now that my pc, cant see my phone, i tried every method i found on the site. i instaled all drivers and reinstaled from flashtool like 10 times, and my pc still doesnt see device. while i try to connenct via fasboot. i have the violet light for like 2 sekonds and after it the device starts to boot normally, same is with flashboot. flash tool does not give any msg of connecting a device. can any tell a way to get it working? i want to flash to stock soft. but i cant cause nothing sees the device with installed drivers.
FOrogot to ad that i flashed the aospa rom, cause i thought i will get usb working atlast. but im stuck now on com.android.phone stopped working, and i cant even download any other rom using phone:
EDIT
Just read in nemesis kernel topic "* Computer/PC Companion and even Flash Tool cannot detect.". so Any ideas how can i flash it. without have any other rom on sd card? I will be rlly happy if someone can help me, i know i made a big mistake but not doin recovery, first time i not did and all went wrong.
do u have SUS? (Sony Update Service)
try connecting with SUS if SUS don't detect your phone then flashtool will not detect your phone also.
Well it doesnt not see to, In my opinion no porgram will see it if device manager cant see it, but now after some slleep i got and idea. Could it be maybe the problem of to old micro usb cable. because my got broken. and i have to use from my sister that has samsung wave.
Good Luck.
LED should be blue not violet for fastboot.
Make sure the phone is shut down first, press volume up + power for 10-15 seconds untill you feel 3 vibrations.
Well whatever coulour it is violet or blue. I press the volume up connect the phone to usb. And i got this coulur for 2-3 second and then it goes to charging mode. it happens every time. Same happens to flashboot. Green for 2-3 sec and the it goes to charging mode.

It's not "whatever" if it's violet it means it's waiting for vol- to enter CWM and not entering fastboot.
Make sure the phone is turned off as I explained.
Phone is turned of, I allways wait for those 3 vibrations before i begin the process. And here to enter the cwm is blue, and for fastboot i have violet. If i had a camera i would record it to prove it.

THey say nothing, As i say in the first post. PC does not see the device, Flastool handles as nothing has been conected. same device manager on wondows. no poop outs that drivers are missing, or anything.. Fastboot has allways waiting for device, doesnt matter how much i try to onnect. It worked before. I tried on other laptop but its same. Thats why later i wrot that maybe this cable is to old for that phone. But it works for other phones.

It could be the connector on the phone.
I use samsung cable no problem, the Sony that came with XP is still sealed
I have a (supposed) MT6589 iPhone i5s clone which I managed to brick. I tried to use the instructions here to use the SP Flash Tool to unbrick it, but the first problem I have is with getting my Windows 7 (32 bit) computer to recognize the phone. I installed the MediaTek MT65xx Preloader VCOM driver and it connects for a second. I can see the device connected as a COM device, but it only stays connected for a second and then disconnects. (This is independent of whether I am running the SP Flash Tool or not.)
Is this a symptom of a bad driver? The other problem with trying to follow the instructions is that it says to remove the battery, but this copy is a 1:1 of the iPhone so it is not intended to be opened up. I tried to discharge the battery completely, but when I plug the device in, there seems to be no response (ie, Windows doesn't do anything). At some point, there seems to be some charge in the battery because of constantly plugging in the USB cable, and at that point, is when the device is recognized but is quickly disconnected.
Anyone happen to know what I am doing wrong?
So in general, I am first interested in:
Why is the device connecting properly (I assume) being recognized as MediaTek Preloader VCOM, then disconnecting in about a second?
Is it related to not being able to disconnect the battery?
In theory, wouldn't a dead battery be the same as disconnecting the battery?
When battery is dead, nothing happens when I connect the phone to my PC. This seems odd since I am supposed to be able to connect to the PC without any battery... What is the difference?
Per instructions, I've been pressing the + volume button when connecting, but I seem to get similar results no matter if I press + or not.
Should I be loading any other drivers besides the MediaTek Preloader drivers?
Thanks.
PS. I've decided to open up the phone using a video found on YouTube, and found that the battery is soldered, so I am not so motivated in trying to disconnect the battery if possible.
Update: OK, the problem I likely had with the phone is that since the phone was in a type of "boot loop", I couldn't actually tell it was on or not... And plugging in the cable only worked if the phone is off. Once I made sure the phone was dead due to battery dying and made sure I did not turn the phone on, I could connect, let the battery charge long enough for the phone to respond to the PC, and then it was recognized by SP Flash Tool. However, seems I may have tried flashing something incompatible as the phone is not responding. I'll likely need to write another post once I can find the symptoms of what is going on.
Try hardware preloader MOD which means test point on the phone board; by soldering one to GND and another point on the board (connecting points are clear on the board), this will stop connecting and disconnecting phenomenon
Hi there,
yesterday I tried to root my new Tablet Z (16GB, LTE, Model: SGP321, Firmware: 10.4.B.0.569) and it doesn't start since then.
I used an ubuntu live CD for all these tasks because fastboot doesn't work on my win 8.1 and my debian wheezy didn't have the libc-dev needed in its repositories (didn't want to mess with packets that weren't yet integrated into my OS).
What I did:
unlock the bootloader according to http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
I followed the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/how-to-root-10-4-b-0-569-t2590781
a few annotations to this:
the firmware rar didn't include a "Recover.zip", so I used the boot.img directly inside the firmware rar
although sony and this CM tutorial use the "-i" parameter of fastboot, I didn't use it because it wasn't used by the tutorial
after I did the "fastboot reboot" step, the device wasn't listed anymore when typing "fastboot devices", which, I think, is okay since the device should restart then.
I think it didn't really restart, because the LED on the side glew red.
I tried to turn on the tablet but it didn't do anything (the LED kept glowing red).
I tried holding vol up and power for a few seconds (until the LED blinked first once and then three times) but the tablet wouldn't do anything except for the LED glowing red. at somepoint, the LED would turn off (I think that happened when I hold vol up and power for more than 10 sec).
I was able to let it glow red again by pressing vol up and power again and release the vol up button before the power button.
I also tried to use the PC companion on my windows machine to repair the tablet but the tablet wasn't even recognized (either using the fastboot-procedure by holding vol up while connecting the tablet nor normal plugging in...)
any ideas what I could do next?
Same Problem!
Hey wullxz!
I have the same problem. Red LED most of the time, and I cannot make ANY USB connection to the PC. The tablet won't show up in the device manager. So obviously cant use flashtool, nor PC companion. Ive tried all this volume up and down button stuff, but simply cannot get it to show up on the computer.. Tried a different USB cable as well.. Same issue. The USB port is definitely not broken. Its brand new..
Have you found any solution ? Or anyone else? Mine just got back from Sony Repair.. they wont fix it cuz they detected that Ive tampered with the original software.... meaning Warranty Lost!
Great!
hi,
i also sent mine to sony for a repair. i wrote that i did a firmware update and the tablet wouldn't boot afterwards.
i didn't try the bootloader-unlock again afterwards.
Help Needed!
Tablet Z with unlocked bootloader and rooted 10.1.C.0.370
My issues occured after a downgrade to 4.1.2.
I CAN:
1) Start my tablet, everything normal...
2) Charge my tablet
3) Go into safe mode
4) Go into fastboot mode (solid BLUE LED)
5) Use the memory card and use root apps (maybe this could help restore?)
I CAN NOT:
1) Get my PC to recognize that a USB device is connected. Neither in Mass Storage mode, Media mode, nor fastboot mode.
- Tried with several cables and computers (this is not a driver issue, since it won't show up at all in device manager)
- Flashtool obvious;y says, no device connected
2) Get in to flashmode: device blinks red for about half a second, then green for half a second, and then LED is off. Nothing recognized via USB on PC
3) Get into recovery mode
4) Update over WIFI (fails because unlocled bootloader I suppose)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
i think you should open a new thread for your problem because it seems like it's not really similar to my issue.
you should get more/better replies in an own thread.

let it charge to 100%, check for flashmode drivers installed and then try attaching it to pc only when flashtool asks you to do it.

Hey thanks for your reply... It wont go into flashmode... Theres something fundamentally wrong.. I cant figure out what... I leave it plugged in for 48 hours..but it doesnt really get full.. the most Ill get the orange LED.. like 50%... now its on since about 12 hours.. no LED on at all... strange..
But yea.. no flashmode... Nothing showing up when connecting the USB cable... nothing in device manager..and therefore flashtool sees nothing!
SOLVED
Problem solved! I can't believe it. Two bad(?) USB cables. Bought a new one, charges fine, flashmode fine. Flashed stock ROM.
However the Camera still doesn't work. Maybe the problem of the cable inside which may have come loose!
Hi, I was looking everywhere since yesterday but can't find a solution. I had cwm + twpr + lollipop cm12. I've decided to back to stock, so as allways: driver, b2cApp, kdz, v20h and v10a, usb, s/w mode, xml parser, shhtp, etc... Standard offline kdz method. But during flashing I stuck on 15% and get the info that my phone anad pc are not connected by usb cable, I tried changing usb ports at pc, reinstaling everything, but I have still the same error. If that woldn't be much enough I ****ed something up and I think I don't have any recovery right now
I can put my phone in s/w mode but I stuck on 15% with usb not connected error.
I can put my phone in fastboot mode but my pc does not recognize it, its just pluging in and out it from windows.
I can put my phone in stuck on LG logo 'mode'
Any help? How to unbrick it? How to flash stock or at least some custom recovery? Of course unlocked bootloader. Please help me :crying:
Key it ****ed up even more.
When kdz show me to connect my cable i clicked retry, plugen cable out and in, kdz found my device, and go to step 2. In half way I had again the same error, so again clicked retry, plug out, plug in. Again founded my device, when I had downloaded 100%, same situation. founded my device, log that tool is extracting kdz and nothing. Waiting about ~1,5h, nothing happend, so I diconected cable. In that moment kdz go to third step and I get windows force close for not repodnig app kdz. I said a loud **** and started again. Phone has not been found anymore by kdz. After a few tries, booted to fastboot, and connected to computer. It has been found as Google Fasbtoo USB, no way to update driver to fastboot. I disconected phone and decided to try again with s/w but nope. S/W not turning on anymore (with or without battery). Fastboot not turning on any more. Just LG logo, when I'm connecting device to PC it is sometging pluging in and out but nothing showing in device manager
Any ideas? Please!

My friend gave me a phone that does not respond to anything, no react for VolumeUP + PowerButton without battery, it does not detect the computer* What can I do? Anny ideas? Its finally bricked or what?
My computer try to install ONE driver when i randomly plugged my USB cable to my phone, but not succeeded up
After that what i said about driver, i never be able to see this window with this driver after this one time.
Name of the driver - OMAP4430
Hope you help me with this.
Small wonder, w/o battery.
Unless you want to invoke download mode to flash a stock rom with LGs flash tool. But even that probably requires a battery, despite some people saying the opposite. Download mode: Keep volume pushed while attaching phone via usb. Battery can/must stay in.
hi try reinstall x loader you need install the drivers omap and use mode fastboot... search how to install driver omapp (search here in xda ) and the folder fastboot has a file .bat you run it and show you the option
