That is not a bricked phone!
A bricked phone doesn't even start...
Turn your phone off, then boot it pressing "Back" button over and over again...if you can enter the CWM recovery do a backup of all your data and then reinstall the ROM.
If not...well then try to use PC Companion to repair your phone (this procedure will make you lose all your data).
If that doesn't work...well then I think that is a hardware problem.
Hope that I helped...
Hit thanks button if I helped...

I dont have image on the screen, so i cant boot up with CWM recovery =(
I already try that ... **** sony ericcson

Sounds more like as the LCD may have given up on its Ghost.
Try to take out the battery and wait a few seconds before putting it back in. If you still get no screen output I'd say the Touchscreen is a goner (hardware defect).

My X8 Stuck on "SONY ERICSSON" Text
Hey… I have Xperia x8
I read your post...
My Problem is similar to your Problem which happened to your phone!
When i am switching on my x8 it starts and gets hanged on the "SONY ERICSSON Logo"
My x8 is still on "SONY ERICSSON" Logo...and Nothing is Working out of it!
What i did:
I tried to install a ROM…
It said..."Successfully Installed new ROM"
Then, we all usually reboot our phone for better Use and hoping for a new start..i did the same
It got restarted but got hanged on "SONY ERICSSON" Text...i know that it takes a time of about 5-7 mins to come out from That LOGO....but i waited for more than 10 mins.
And then when i took out the battery to turn it off(It was the only way to switch off the phone by taking the battery out)
It restarted …but Then after That “Sony Ericsson” Text in showing up on the screen and nothing is happening when i am pressing & holding the Back button also.
Then for Turning off my Phone(To save my Battery)...The only thing i have to do is to Remove my Battery from the Phone.
This problem is continuing till today...its almost a week..i am trying to do some experiements...and trying some new methods searching up on the internet...checking youtube on videos for help....but nothing is happeneing for me...
I tried with the Flash Tool also…but Nothing is Happening
With the help of flash tool…it is Detecting my Phone but when i am going to Advanced Menu–Selecting Reboot–There comes 2 options
KERNEL and RECOVERY…i did both the Way..but not Rebooting…
In Logs…it says “Rebooting Your Phone”
BUT Nothing Happening After that “SONY Ericsson Text”.
I am fade up of this “SONY ERICSSON” Text
PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS Help me…!!!
i personally prefer using flashtool to go back to stock rom, then re-root and flash custom ROM. just search the files you need (it's pretty simple). BTW, did you wipe before/after flashing the rom??

If you have unlocked bootloader, flash other kernel, if you don't have use SE PC Companion. LOL your phone is stock not bricked. You can't turn on phone if it's bricked :laugh:
Relax,sit,open PC Companion, go to update service...

[Q] Boot Loop Problem

I'm stuck up with sony ericsson logo after installing the ROM CM 7.1. How to fix this issue.
Use PCC/SEUS to flash back stock ROM
Because you didn't click "full wipe" !
And u even just didnt bothered searching before posting...
omg is your s bootloader unlocked did you change kernel to nAa and post in Q/A
Actually what i did was , First i installed Ginger Dx, i can't use the phone continiously if too many apps are installed the phone get's restarted often. so i planned to change cm7.1. so i did wipe/reset data , after that i installed the CM7.1 ROM.The phone is stuck up with the sony ericsson logo screen. I heard by flash boot the image file will rectify this problem is it correct?

PCC= Sony PC Companion.
SEUS= Sony Update service.
Download programs. They are for updating our phone (and other sony phones).
We use them for repairing (we click on update and program say "you have latest android version or something like that and "do you want to repair it" !
With thoose 2 programs we fix soft brick...!
I'm stuck at SE screen too..but I was restoring a backup of gingerdx and my led isn't working when connected to pc...Tell me this is fixable please...

[SOLVED] Unable to reboot xperia T

So Im still figuring out my problem with no being able to write to my sd on the xperia t. So I formatted some stuff from my xperia t and decided to reboot my cwm.
Now it is stuck at the boot screen and I am not able to shut down the device or acces cwm. Its just stuck at the freexperia screen omg.
I can't remove the battery because I don't know how and I am not even sure if it is possible. Should I just wait for the battery to run out or something?? Any help is appreciated

Well i also had that problem when i was really new with rooting and flashing roms. I would suggets to try Hard Reset: volup+power button for 30 secs or somethings, you will hear/feel alot of vibrates. If that doesnt work flash a stock rom via flashtool, its easier than it looks! Dont panic!
You could try to reboot by pressing volume up and power at the same time and wait for the three vibrates. But best option is probably try to repair via PC Companion. Exactly what did you do to your device?

Xperia z not turn on (stuck on Sony logo)

Hello.
Short problem review. My brother used some custom rom for a while. Today he tried to install CM12,1 . He installed it by Cwm recovery. Everythink looks fine. After first start it was imposible even to unlock phone (all the time some programs stoped working...). After hard reset phone not turn on at all. It shows just SONY logo then 4seconds black screen and phone auto restart. And it never end. Is it posible that he break this phone? P.S. just one option works - fastboot mode (blue led). Sorry for poor english.
Maybe someone can give me some hints or tips what to do?

1. You can flash boot.img of any rom for yuga (i prefer boot.img of slimlp) through fastboot mod and after that go to recovery and install any rom.
2. You can flash stock if nothing work through flashmod.

after restart i see sony logo and red led on corner and mili second green led (on this it should open recovery mode, but phone restart faster and i can't get on it)
could it be battery problem (dead battery)? the reason for flashing new rom was that this phone shutdown at 82% of batery remaining. Factory settings reset didn't helped so we installed other custom rom and now it is dead. Now without charger it dont start at all ( 3 times red led and thats all). If i leave it to charge but it restart and restart.
