hey,
I have an xperia black on the latest official rom. r3a (something)
just a few hours ago the phone was automatically switched off,
it was fully charged and it just went blank.
i tried switching it back on but no luck.
just one time it was powered on and was stuck at the XPERIA screen for 3-4 minutes and then again went blank.
when i connect to pc , my pc says usb device not recognized and keeps detecting my device.
now i have connected the phone to the wall and the red power led blinks after 20 seconds. when i press the power button the side leds dont blink or respond, just the top one blinks after 20 sec. the battery is cold.
i tried reinserting the battery alot of times and then put it back to chg for 30 mins, still no luck.
i searched alot but didnt find a solution. please help
hehe it is an expensive buy........
charge the battery using wall charger for the whole day and then turn it on - your battery must have died compleatly somehow and this happens to loads of people if the charge gets too low

i think its the same as the red light flash at the side because when this happened to me the same happened.
Is it an official battery that came with the x1?

No I haven't. But if this happened to me, I would be back at the place where I bought it in no time!
See if you can use someone else's battery to see if the X1 still works with that. This sounds like a seriously dead battery which needs to be replaced.
Good luck!
Calm down. Most people visit the forume once a day or less. You can't expect them to answer right away.
Your problem afaik is that the phone can't detect the battery. Read this and tell us if it helped you.

maybe it is a case of dead battery....

I don't think that is possible. It probably is a hardware fault in the phone itself. Maybe a connector or something burned itself out. Unfortunatelly that can be fixed only by professionals.
My advice is to take the battery out for a couple of hours, then put it back and let it charge. If there is no response after the charging go to a repair shop .
Keep us informed on how it goes .
well i went to the company today, the one who deals with the warranty and they refused to take the phone under warranty saying that the phone looks drop dead, ( i have quite a few of them scrathes on the back)
i dont know how he asumed that it has been dropped, anyhow i was disappointed and took it to a local repair shop and they checked it with another battery and still no luck so they said they will have to flash the phone and it will be ok.
BUT!!!
when i came home i just blew on the battery terminal on the phone and inserted the battery and the phone switched on YESSSS!!!, but after some time it was halt again and was switched off, now sometimes it comes on and sometimes it doesnt, when ever i blow on the terminals it comes on otherwise it wont.
can it be the case of moisture inside the phone?
because the day it faulted, that day i was sweating and i had the phone in may pocket.
if yes please whats the solution.?
thanks in advance
ps
the phone is also very slow to boot
the screen is also flicking a little
the red light under the power button is telling u that the battery has run out. if u get it with a fully charged battery it either means the battery is dead (in the sense that if will never charge or hold its charge etc) or the handset is buggered. best bet is to phone SE and get the phone fixed or battery replace (u will probably have to send the phone and battery to repair but SE might have a way to test if its the battery or phone).
also there may be a prob with the connection from the handset to the battery.
I restarted my phone this morning because it was going really slow. so after I restarted my phone like I always do, it stayed at the ericsson splash screen and won't go past that. So then as many ideas come to mind, I tried reinstalling my rom (CHT WM 6.5, which i'm willing to share the link and all that for those who wants it), after it finished installing, it just stayed at the gray screen and did nothing. so after that, I tried HARDspl it once more to see if that was the issue. Tried it, but nothing happened. so once again I turned off my phone and then tried to turn it on. here's the funny part. I can't even turn my phone on anymore and I don't know why. I tried pluging it in to the charger, the lights didn't even go on....
I think I bricked my x1.
PLEASE HELP !!!! I DON"T KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
I've only had this phone for a month, and there's already been so many problems with it. It's a big request, but I really would ask if someone can teach me how to reverse and fix my problem.
I would suggest you to charge your battery for a night, then reflash with a stock rom using Micro SD method to start everything again
try a hard reset ..
Guys
I've tried both methods, and my phone still has no reaction.
right now I have my phone right beside me. the red light is still on even though my battery is in.
What other things could I do?

As stated, recharge the phone overnight and see if it doesn't turn on in the morning.
I've tried that but then it still doesn't work. I used the orginial charger + usb to charge last night ( directly plugged in to the wall socket, not through a power bar or anything like that ). when I woke up this morning, I tried turning on the phone and it still doesn't turn on. but then when I plug it into my computer, the red light turns on at the power button. the computer still can't recognize my phone as a valid device.
does that mean I have to give up to send my phone back to sony to be fixed??
should I just give up and send it back to sony to get it fixed?
I even called into to sony to ask for help...when I asked about the software, they just said send it back in to let their "professional" technicans to look at it.
I broke the screen on my old w810i and it costed me 80 dollars to fix...I only wonder how much it'd cost them to replace my battery and reset the software...
This is a very sad day for another very big sony ericsson fan....
Your phone probably ran out of battery, or at least that's what the red light means.
This is what I did before - remove the battery, then plug the phone in directly into the wall charger, and then slap the battery back in and wait for about 10 minutes. Usually the USB (computer) doesn't charge enough for it the wake.
i've tried doing that too.
generally I charge my phone through the wall charger.
and the whole time i've been trying to solve this issue i've kept only using the wall plugins to charge my phone.
i'm guessing as well as you are that my phone's probably out of battery + maybe the battery is unbalanced as well.
i think the main issue above the power not working is some how one of the .nbh that i have tried is corrupted. as far as my wm + computer knowledge goes, I don't have much of a clue how to back track to fix the software issues.
hi all..
first of all, it's -for sure- runing out of battery.. it has to be charged anyway..
I had your issue before with my old universal -JasJar-,, it had a red light all the time.. trying to turn on.. even after a time in charger,, still dosent make a sence !!
after all my searchs I tryid another battery from a shop- just for testing the devieces in there.. and..guess what ..
it just worked out !!
just try another battery..
it might-i'm not sure- that both our issues were related to the- the internal backup device battery- by someway making all of this when the main battery is out of order !! ..
waiting for your sucessfull results then
that's great to hear. I'll definitely update everyone on that battery issue as soon as I can get into a store to get a battery test.
SO, here's another thing, IF by any chance my phone turns on, what in the world could I do to get my phone to not "malfunctioned" anymore? would I just do a full reset on it and everything should be alright again? by full reset i mean pressing the soft reset button and the two silver buttons in front of the phone.
If it does turn on again, let it fully charge before you try to flash another ROM onto it. I'd probably flash the R3 ROM before I'd switch it to anything else, just to be sure that the phone is fully operational.
thanks for the advice. i'll definitely keep that in mind when I am about to do anything with the phone again.
hey everyone! I just got to a rogers store today about my x1.
so here's what will happen.
they'll send me a brand new x1 in about 3 to 5 business days. in return, i'll have to send the phone that I have had back to them so that they can see if it can be fixed or not (which i have strong confidence that they can't).
if it can be fixed, they'll tell me how much it cost.
if i pay for that cost, then i can keep my new phone. if I don't want to pay that cost, then i'll have to send that brand new x1 back to them.
I'm praying hard that they won't be able to fix that phone so I can keep the new one for free!!!!!
finally the x1 arrived!!!!!
so now hopefully it will stay working and then rogers won't charge me for the new replacement that they sent me!!!
hey guys, my rooted 2.3.4 stock gingerbread optimus black doesn't come on unless plugged in to the charger. the issue started 3 days ago when i was playing virtual tennis sega and it was connected to the charger. at first my phone got very hot and then it restarted.i continued playing the game after it restarted and it later got hot and again went off, but this time blinking as it went off. i removed the battery and put it back but it remained same. i later removed the battery for a whole day and inserted it back the next day but it remained the same. i later plugged it to the charger and it came on and booted all the way to my home screen. i could even use the phone normally, but anytime i remove the charger it goes off. also, anytime i put on the camera while its plugged in it goes off and shows the battery icon charging. i have done a factory reset but its still the same. please help me.
Try another battery
I think it might be loose or dead
If it was software...it would have turned on
could be your battery, hard to tell though, what if it's pluged to the PC?

I had the same issue.. i lost the warranty due to "bad use" and send the phone to a repair center.. It has a broken wire of the USB connector.
If your phone still turns on while pluged to the computer you can use smartflash to go back to stock rom and this will get you back to warranty
phone still wont come on without charger

Thanks theaks, turns out to be a good battery issue...... Didn't know that warranty doesn't cover battery...... Optimus works fine now.... ICS on my mind.
Hey everyone,
I received the phone couple days ago and while its not new its in pretty good shape, i think. So when i started using the phone i noticed that there was a lot of lag waking it from sleep after extended times of inactivity so i decided to factory reset. The day after everything seemed fine with one incident where i left the phone for like 30min - 1hr and it took 10-15 min to wake up. The following morning i woke up and the phone lagged again for prob the same amount of time however the next morning i.e. today i wasn't getting anything after 30 min so waited another 30 min and realized something is wrong so i attempted the hard reset and other tricks (take out battery and hold power button[1min,2min or 3min], hold vol+/-, the home button and then the power button) but nothing happens on or off the charger, no LED, nothing....
Please help!

I suggest you return the device if you can.
Seems like Your device is hard bricked or maybe motherboard has some serious issues
Try connect to computer see if pc detects the device.
Try another battery maybe battery is dead
If you able to go into download mode then flash stock firmware with pit file.

Well, when i tried plugging it into the computer the only notification i get is the sound of the device being plugged in but the Note doesn't respond and nothing comes up on the computer.
As for another battery i dont know where i can get one to test it.
I cant go into download mode; the screen doesnt turn on, no led, nothing. Its like somebody poisoned the phone in its sleep, it is really bizarre for phone to die like this because you think u would see some signs

Phone is hard bricked and motherboard is almost dead.
You can still bring back to life if you able to find a debrick.image for your model in xda
Its complicated and need patients to do it
If you have enough knowledge then do it or otherwise you have to replace entire motherboard.

alright guess ill study up and try something tomorrow.
the phone was working flawlessly, I sold it.. when I was at USPS I started the factory reset process and put the phone in the box.. could be that the battery was almost empty, cant remember exactly. the phone arrived to the person who bought my phone, and it wont start or charge at all.. any suggestions? maybe the battery was empty before the phone had fully reseted? or any other problem?
please help me!!
You should have done all this the night before, rather than waiting for the last minute at the USPS. In any event, how long did the new owner put the phone on charge before letting you know?
yeah I know.. I regret it, believe me.. about an hour or two..
All I can recommend is that he try for a longer period. Also, have him try connecting it to his computer and see what happens.
Unless he's willing to get the battery replaced, I think you're going to have to take this one back.
it's on the way to me..
I got the phone. it wont turn on. it vibrates, I try to connect it to the comp and it says: your phone is locked or something like this. any suggestions?
