Check the battery before anything else, it may have been depleted completely

This is not a good news. Try to plug in the battery (be sure it is charged even a little bit), then push the power on and the vol-up button in the same time. Whait some seconds. Even if nothing suceed try again to connect the phone in download mode (with and without the battery).
I think it will not resolve the broblem..but try it anyway.
Good luck

[Q]How to unbrick?

OK guys!
yesterday i cooked a ROM with dsixda's Android Kitchen.I also checked the updateR-script file to prevent any damage.
but the problem is :
ROM was flashed successfully and every single function worked. I just turned my phone off and it doesn't boot any more.
Any suggestions?
Is that a BRICK?
Thank you all in advance!:crying:

Can you get into Download/Recovery Mode? and what is it doing? Just black or showing the bootanimation? And btw you should have posted that in the q&a thread!
Try connect phone to charger and we will see.
thank you!
first i knew this should have been posted in Q&A but thought you guys can help me more.
my phone is showing a black screen and no response.
I just dont know what the hell has happened to this. It was working fine but ... you know the story!
I dont know if its a hard brick either. cuz nothing (just nothing) happened to the phone. No wrong flashing,ROM manager,...
just wanted to know what the should i do with this thing:crying::crying::crying:
You don't have flashed any kernel that's not for the i9001 right? If you have done that it's hard bricked. if not it's rescue-able

So, does download mode work or not?
1.I haven't flashed any incorrect kernel
2.I can't boot the phone anyway.
Told you guys
dunno what the hell is wrong with this!
just after flashing my cooked ROM I shut the device down and thats all!
I don't think this is called a Brick but anyway I can't fix it
If you cant boot phone anyway, that's Hard Brick...

Take battery out, wait 30 minutes Start Odin in your pc plug in the USB cable To the phone, press and hold the button Combo for download mode and take in the battery
sometimes this works, our phone is very hard To brick
i verified my battery with a multimeter and it's giving me Voltage.
unfortunately there's no SSC here so I could fix it but battery seems a bit...................weird
maybe it's dead.
I try to buy a new one and try again.
BUT PLEASE GIVE UR FEEDBACK MAYBE I DIDN'T NEED TO BUY ANYTHING.

The first advice I can give to you is to take the battery out for overnight then put it back in.

since i don't have a spare battery i\ll just take it directly to the center but......will they refuse to fix it if they find out it was rooted ?
if there is no recovery or download mode.. then it will really be impossible to see if the phone was rooted or not

Hi there,
you tried flashing it with atf?
What do you mean with "but it pluged up in start of flashing "? Did you start flashing and during flashing, the battery died?
Is your phone charged?
You can try "flash dead phone".
If it won't work, you should be able to repair it via JTAG.
But maybe you get better support here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f609/

Sounds like there is no software in it. It can't charge without it.
Not being funny but it's another example of someone running before they can walk. You need to read and re read everything you can find before you mess with your phone
Was it fully charged, as it should be?

Of course, if your phone was not fully charged before flashing, you're messed up.
Of course it can't charge, because it cannot "load" the little piece of software for charging.
You should try it with another battery. So disassemble your phone and insert a charged (!!) battery!
If this does not work, you have to repair boot via JTAG and flash your phone with the charged (!!) battery.
Or you can write emmc directly without a battery. But that's way too complicated.

I'm not sure about this one but if the phone was mine I would try to flash a stock kernel ftf with flashtool. it might be you flashed something bad and things got corrupted. and if the phone is stuck like this your phone will probably not charge, so the battery is dead. in which case you cannot flash an entire rom. try to flash only the kernel from this using flashtool. .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647207
if this works then place your phone on charge for a few hours.
then reflash the entire stock ftf.
if none of this works I'm not sure what else you can try. good luck!

I have had this exact same problem for months now and thought I tried everything. But I guess not.:good: Just wondering what you did after you completed the wiring on the battery. Did you charge it for a certain amount of time,before turning it on? Did you have to flash a stock rom? Any input would be very helpful. Thanks

Bricked!! -.-
Hey guys, I don't know if this is out of topic but since this is for xperia z bricked, I'll show my problem.
So, I updated my xperia z for 3 times since I bought it, It came with Android 4.2.2 and the updates were all OTA.
Then, sudently It started to reboot itself and entering in bootloop.. Then, I tried to use flashtool but always gave me error about S1 flash, and then "Error: Flash Aborted"
So I tried to unlock my bootloader several times (Yes, several times, because it was always saying ok, but then it was showing "ROOTABLE") then, when I Finally got it unlocked, I couldn't flash anything because it was gaving me error saying that couldn't write boot.. Then, Tried Pc companion but again, failed, and my phone was stuck in "Update failed (...)"
Then finally, I flashed advanced kernel by DoomLord and entered in CWM, but when I tried to wipe factory reset, It was saying that couldn't mount data.. Then, I have formated the Data and Media (SD Card) And then, I was able to do factory reset, but, then, I went to advance and did reboot recovery.. My phone turned off, but never came on... I arrived at home and connect ti to wall charger, but no sign of life, nothing, not even red led or anytihng.. NOTHING!! Don't know what happened.. I really need help on this man, please :c
