I am confused man... R u asking for Hard Reboot or Hard Reset.. ? ?
If u want to Hard Reboot ur Phone means Press the Volume Up + Power Button at the Same time for 3 or More Seconds. It will work only when ur phone get hanged or Freeze. It will automatically Reboot with a vibrate...
And ur asking a Hard Reset like Nokia By pressing volume keys and Power buttons means no. U cant do that here..

have you tried the s1tool to read the phone and see the status of it might be that the boot loader needs locking and then re trying everything in the text guide.

Dude your saying the the phone is getting to the Sony Ericsson screen at least.
If it was totally bricked then it wouldn't even start up.
Have you installed all drivers for the x8 onto pc and also x10 drivers that flash tools come with ?
If its going to Sony screen and stopping then its software/rom problem.
Are you holding the back button down whilst plugging the usb cable into the phone ??
If you are what is it doing. Is this still booting up do you fee the phone vibrate then come on or just goes to boot and goes to the Sony screen

What Operating system is this on Windows wise. I will have a look around for some solution if any and see what I can come up with later
Windows 7...
Thanks mate ;D !
Try install gordon gate flash driver?
Is phone showing any signed of life ? Any vibration/led or something ?
If not its hardbrick I think its no way to fix hardbrick. The only way is to send it to Sony to fix it or buy a new phone
If your phone is turning on and there is vibration/led any signed of life there is change to fix it at home

Your phone is broken at the hardware level and not repairable. You've tried everything, and nothing else will work.
Pull the battery, take it to a recycling center, and throw the remainder of the phone away.
No sense in wasting your time or anyone else's.

Please Update your phone through kies and then check or press emergency recovery button :good:
did not work, I think it there is no way. :crying: :crying:
but at least it is possible to use it yet.
Repair
Give it to a repair shop (Where they repair your phone). This is the only way as you have tried all methods. Yet it costs some Rupees

Be careful..it might brick your phone completely as the power button is linked to motherboard. This has happened to my friend's mini, when he gave it in so called samsung service center....even they failed to repair power button and bricked his phone...they gave him a dead phone..
This is not the right section to post your questions/help....you should post this kind of questions in q/a section.

Dude, virus cannot affect your hardware. But still if you think then make a full.format
Go to cwm - mount - format system etc
P.S this will format your OS too u then need immediatly flash a rom.
Or
Open your galaxy mini
Clean power button
Re close it
It's simple YouTube it.

Thanks to everyone, I will continue trying to fix.

There's no such thing as virus can affects the power button.
Really, Android malware isn't exact thing as Window's malware. Android's virus needs permission to make your power button not working.
This is a hardware problem, I believe. Try to send it to SSC.

And its better to visit phone shops so may check your phone problem.

This is true but you need to pay the amount they want when fixed.
I managed to fix the button. How? I dont know
but I'll tell what happened.
I installed the Miui rom v4 by magmini, a couple days later I was watching a video and turned the phone upside down.
and the button is working again, I'm still trying to understand what happened.
Thanks everyone for trying to help. :victory:

Can you make a Screenshot of the box? So then we can better help you if you want know that you have a original Samsung phone, unplug your battery and then you will see on the back page of your phone the product model, serial number, IMEI etc.

Hi,
so i got my XZ1 compact today, started the android setup and immediately forgot the PIN to unlock the phone.
I tried to reboot into recovery for a factory reset (since its brand new, I have no data to backup), however Volume Up + Power does not boot into recovery mode (Volume Down + Power also wont work).
Is there another trick to get into recovery, maybe via USB ?

ADB's not playing nice with my XZ1C, probably due to no bootloader unlock. Is there a "Forgot PIN" option on the lockscreen?
IIRC, Sony stock firmware does not have recovery. Maybe try reflashing the phone using Xperia Companion or Flashtool?
