Hi everyone.
My SP doesn't want to turn on anymore for a unknown reason. When plugging it to the pc\charger the red led appears and then disappears. Non of the tips (power + vol. plus, power + vol. minus) doesn't work.
Please, help. If your suggestion will help, I'll pay you.
put it into charger and leave it charging for like 1-2 hours, also remove sim and sd card

It was on the charger all night long (with no sim and sd) and nothing. But now there is no red light.
Take it back to the shop

How did this happen?? Try this pull out the back panel and press the reset button with a pin and hold the power button and see what happens
Also you may try this install Sony PC companion This will install all the correct drivers for the phone then take usb cord Holding volume Down And Plug it to the phone. If all goes well the led at the bottom should glow green
I had a similar issue and after 4 days of trying all what i could find out in XDA for bricked Xperia phones my SP is back alive.
For me it happened during flashing (with Flashtool 0.9.11) the stock firmware .257 with to less battery power.
Short Info to my phone when it happened
Sony Xperia SP C5303
Kernel: Dooms v01 (i do not think that this was the problem!)
Bootloader: unlocked
Stock firmware from C5302 version .284
System: deodexed and rooted
When i say flashing i did it always with flashtool because PC Companion and SUS did not recognize my phone at all (with locked bootloader).
My SP was behaving as following.
- When i put the wall charger on the phone nothing happened no lights nothing same if plugged in to the computer.
- If i pressed the power button unconnected the LED flashed red 3 times all the time,
after a while nothing happened anymore (which gave me the indication that the battery is completely empty)
- If i pressed the power button continuous during charging (wall/computer) the red light turned on until i released the power button.
When pressing the Power button long enough during i was connected to the computer the green light turned on and i was in flash mode.
But only for maximum 2 min. This was enough to flash all firmware parts except the system.sin (at ~80 % phone disconnected).
And this was the problem my SP stayed dead.
Before someone asks, standard connecting while pressing the volume down for flash mode or volume up for fastboot mode didn't work.
Now i tryed all:
- Left the phone on the wall charger without doing anything -> nothing
- Left the phone on the computer without doing anything -> nothing
- Left the phone on the wall charger/computer while pressing the power button continuous (did it with a tape) -> nothing except that it went in flash mode and red light again all the time
Now my last try (i was reading this in an X10 thread):
I plugged the phone more than 7 hours to the computer while pressing the volume down button continuously (again taped).
Next morning it first looked like that this also did not work.
But as i disconnected the phone from the computer and plugged in again the red light stayed on.
Ok give it a try i thought and i put the phone to my wall charger for 1 hour or so also here the red light was glowing continuous now.
And yeah i could connect the phone to the computer in the normal way volume down than usb and i was in flash mode.
I was now able to flash the complete stock firmware. After again putting the phone to the wall charger for 1 hour the system was booting :victory: .
And now i saw the problem battery charge in status bar showed 1 % but the firmware start up check showed 55 % .
I remember that i did wipe the battery stats in recovery before all that happened.
No idea if this caused the problem.
However i could now charge my phone and it is still alive relocked and on stock.
Hope this helped and good luck.
To prevent other people from this bad situation i tried to remember exactly what caused the drain of the battery to 0%.
Battery was on 25% at start. (I know this was stupid, i was too impatient as dooms v16 and cwm for locked bootloaders were released :silly
1.I started with trying to update my mobile to stock with PC Companion and SUS,
without thinking about that this will not work with unlocked bootloader. -> first battery drain
2. Got stock FTF for .257 (c5303) and wanted to flash it which did not work got errors always.
My SP was connected flashmode on my notebook a long time while i was trying to fix that (reading XDA, driver config etc).
Several times tried to flash without success.
-> drain, drain and more battery drain not thinking about that i started with only 25%.
3. Gave up on my notebook and connected my phone to the Desktop PC (here the config was ok i knew that from flashing before on that computer).
Meanwhile i assume that my battery was already close to completely empty.
As the flash of the FTF (all parts) started my phone turned off and was "dead", i do not remember on which sin it turned off.
The whole time 1. 2. 3. i never booted i always stayed disconnected or in flashmode.
And than the mess began which i posted in my previous post.
So my SP is officially dead. Need to replace to motherboard.

You should keep pressing that button till your phone's screen goes black and vibrates 3 times if it doesn't do that then either the mobo is dead or the button is broken!
well... that's why I kinda hate sony why not do like most makes do (Like iphone, htc, samsung etc just long press the power button to reset the damn thing! It gets really annoying to keep pulling my case and back cover off and then putting a pencil in that tiny hole in public :/)

please let me know, mate!!
watch?v=daNue2RsUbY ( video of my phone with the fading logo )
had the same problem with mines ( i manage to record this fading logo part )
hours later after the record my phone won't even turn on and it only shows that red light popping up when i press the power button
i brought it to sony's service center here and they replaced the battery, that managed to fix it <3
For me pressing the back off button and volume + button force it to fastboot mode. From there just flash a kernel and it is fixed.
which kernel???
Hi.
After having flashed CyanogenMod on my Xperia V, I now want to go back to stock ROM. I have downloaded and installed Flashtool, and also installed Sony Update Service.
The problem is that when I plug in the USB cable while holding volume down, the LED lights up green. After 4-5 seconds the LED goes off, and the phone goes into charge mode.
If I hold volume up while plugging in USB, the phone goes into fastboot (blue LED) with no problems at all. I also see the phone when doing a "fastboot devices".
So, how can I get the phone into flash mode?
Update: I have managed to get the phone to stay in flashmode for about 45 seconds if I push any of the hardware buttons after holding volume down and plug the USB. I believe this is not enough time to make the flash, so I haven't tried it in case I'm gonna brick it.
To be honest with you there is no immediate fix for this it takes up to a week to fix and this method may not work. I fixed my phone twice now doing this and it's been a life saver. It's for peope in a boot loop that does not cease and will not let you enter fastboot or flashmode.
REQUIREMENTS:
*You will need this SEUS
*Drivers for your phone ( use flashtool and go to where the folder is where you installed it and look for 'drivers' and open and install your respective driver software for your device)
*PC Companion (optional)
*USB Cable
*Windows
*Your Device
All download links can be found in the Downloads Section below.
The Instructions;
1. First of all if you are in a boot loop try to hold the power and volume up button until one vibration is felt.
-If you are still in a boot loop (sony logo repeating) try holding it until 3 vibrations are felt
2. Now if this doesn't work then you need to let the phone boot loop until it goes blank and it can no longer continue to boot. Once this happens if you see 2 red LED blinks or 3 RED LED blinks put your phone on charge via mains.
- Make sure that the phone has a SIM card inserted or the phone will not charge after 15 minutes. Then go back to it when you see a green LED or after 1 hour and try to enter flashmode (green LED)
3. Using SEUS (recommended) select your device and install a new fresh firmware and there you'll have your device running.

What went wrong when the phone develops the blinking red led plaque?
Hi.....I've had a similar problem with my Sony Xperia LT30.....3 days ago it froze and shut off by itself. I've tried many,many things to fix the problem but would never turn on,only the red light. Also the same happened when plugged into the computer would only stay red. Tried putting it into flash mode but it would never last long enough to flash the entire stock ROM with Flash Tool. So I took my phone apart and disconnected the battery for about 10 minutes. Put it back on the charger for 12 hours and got Flash Tool ready to flash the entire Rom this time hopefully. Did not have much hope,considering the countless attempts before with no success. But this time it flashed right away by holding down the volume down button and flashed the entire Rom. This is where I'm stuck now....I know I need to hold the power button down while the green lights on to get it out of Flash mode to charge properly, but when I put the phone on my wall charger I get no light for a few seconds than a solid red light than about 5 minutes later the green light comes on,than repeats the process. So I tried holding down the power button when the green light comes on ,but after a few seconds I lose the green light. it just goes blank than about a minute later the red light comes back on? Is it I just need to leave the phone on the charger for another 12 hours or so to recharge the battery,knowing it takes a long time to charge the battery in this state. Thank You for any help anyone can provide.
Hi, I recently flashed the new Ubuntu Touch image for the Xperia Z1 without any issues, but then my battery died after a few days of no usage and I can't get the phone to boot, nor can I get it into fastboot or recovery: When I put it on charge, first the notification-LED starts blinking red, then after a few minutes it begins starting up to charging mode (battery icon). Pressing any volume buttons while the Sony logo shows doesn't help, and after that the phone begins totally bugging around. I can't get it to boot to Ubuntu, but I also can't get it to turn back off without waiting until the battery drains, and then I'm back at plugging it in again. I also tried hitting buttons while plugging in the USB-cable, but again, no results.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
I have Xperia Z3+ dual E6533 that was on custom ROM working fine for almost 4 months.
suddenly after installing Xposed framework second day while on ultra stamina mode once I try to deactivate it and go back to normal it goes into boot loop.
once I turn off the phone and let it charge to 100% tried again to boot but still the same so I left the phone for a couple of hours to be cool down after around 15 min boot loop.
suddenly it's not responding anymore for any key combination or hard reset or reflash.
I tried hard reset by the small button next to sim card slot, by (Power & Volume +), by removing the battery and reinstall it again.
now the computer does not recognize the phone at all and cannot go in flash mode or fastboot mode.
I tried also holding the volume- before connecting the phone and holding it until connecting to PC but nothing showing in device manager.
now all that is coming that once it's connected to wall charger it's blinking red for 2 days now and while pressing the power button the blinking red light turns into stable one not blinking.
I have already read most of the similar issues written for other devices and tried most of them but still nothing.
can anyone help me?
