Hey. I got problem with my Xperia X8. I cant turn it on. When I press power/lock button, red light turns on and off 3 times. I already changed motherboard for a new one but it didnt help. I think its battery problem but Im not sure. Also, when i connect it to PC, red light turns on every 3-4 second. I dont know what it means. Any solutions? Seus and SE PC Companion wont see my phone. Thanks.
i think its battery dead :/
You can try it to put into flash mode, connect to USB and press and hold back button until the green led turns on, if it can get into flash mode i think motherboard is not the problem, also try geting in a new battery. If neither od that works, than it's some hardware failure.
At least you can try that, I don't know.

Well, Getting into a flash mode dont work. Also I took battery from Xperia X10 mini pro and I tried to connect it. My phone vibrates after pressing power button. Nothing happens after this. Also I tried holding back button with this battery.
If ur battery is fully charged,and then also its not opening up..then it seem some problem is there with battery itself..

Hmm...I don't know, try with the X8 battery, if it doesn't work, then go to official service.
If you rooted your mobile phone then you're f***ed up, because your waranty will be void.
If you can not go to flash mode and get your phone back to original unrooted software, you will have to pay the service.

use seus selct phone dont plug the usb yet hold the back key hold still then plug the usb a green light should appear then seus will download your stock rom which is android 2.1 eclair.
Hey, Yesterday I managed to turn my phone into a Flash mode, so I installed 2.1 firmware with SE PC Companion, but still my phone wont turn on ;/
If you are 100% sure that you installed stock firmware from SEUS, than you have your waranty back ( if you have it still ) and go to your official service to repair your phone. Yet, if your waranty has expired than pay te service.
i had the same problem a week or two ago, i was tethering with barnacle, and suddenly my connection was lost (my phone was charging in my laptop)...
when i checked my xperia (i was downloading stuff so i was tethering for something like 4-5 hours) the device was very hot and with the same probles previouly described (blinking in red, not turning on, etc)....
i was very scared, waited for a while until the temperature was cooler and the i plugged to the wall for an hour or so... without an answer, suddenly the charge icon appeared (phone turned off)... and it got in perfect shape again...
the other day i was using barnacle again and i looked at the phone (charging with my laptop again) and i discovered that it was again draining even when charging so i decided to charge in the wall and it was ok...
Charging with a wall charger dont work. Tried many things. Now only changing battery can help me. If not, I will need to leave it in service so they could repair it...
Okay, so I made a small step. I managed to charge battery so now everytime I want to turn on battery, my phone vibrates and while its vibrating for half of second there is green light. After this nothing happens. I can change firmware without any difficulty, but its not helping. Tried with SEUS, SE PC Companion and Flashtool. What to do now?
Well,i think its the battery thats screwed up IMO .does the battery look a little bit fatter by any chance

I was flashing my Xperia T with flash tool and there was an error. Now I can't turn on my phone. The red led is blinking while trying to power it on. Vol up + power on also doesn't work (red led blinkinking). When connecting to pc flashtool stops on "For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode". What can I do?
First try to charge it for a few hours to see if it comes back, then you can try to repair via PC Companion or flash again

Already tried that and it's the same.
Yur battery is empty. You need to recharge. So open phone take battery out and charge it external. When battery is full just flash normal.
That is the reason why you should only flash if battery > 50%

He has a T so the battery is not removable....(Not without difficulty anyway)
Just leave it plugged in for several hours, or even better overnight. That should do it, and if it does not, then try and remove the battery
Now the red led is switching on/off every few minutes while on charger.
Just leave it it will boot soon

I have opened the back cover, disconnected the battery and after few minutes i have put the phone on charging. Red light appeard but after a while it went off again so i have measured the voltage. It's going from around 3.08V (red led off) to about 3.25V (red led on) and after that point red led is off, the battery is discharging and the process starts again. What can I do?
when did you do this?
Did you follow the advice above? In all cases I have heard of this leaving the phone on charge for 24 hours has fixed it. Plug it in, leave it alone, come back tomorrow and try to turn it on. (Maybe even hole power and volume up together untill it vibrates 3 times and then turn on)
Yes, I was charging it more than 24h and it was the same. I think I need to charge the battery external.
give it a go, and if you have the battery off you may even try and change it.
Thats what i told you. You cannot leave it charging. Chargemon is a software which can only start idf ROM is ok.
Just takr out battery and buy a cheap chinese external charger. I know R has builtin battery but it is no problem at all.
You REALLY have to charge it with external charger or another Phone with working software

I've followed the instructions but my battery is flat. It's charging to 3,25V and that's all.

It's already charging. I have experience in electronics so it wasn't a problem Now I need to check the voltage as not to overcharge.
Hello.
I've left my phone in the hot sun for some time and it's not working anymore. When I try to power it on, the LG logo appears and screen+buttons flash continnously as if it's struggling to start but can't. *this is on battery, not plugged it.
When I plug it in charger It powers up, everything is working but it eventually reboots by itself. Sometimes it stays on 3 seconds, other times 2-3 mins, then reboots.
I've tryed wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, reinstall ROM, wipe battery stats..nothing works.
So basically if I plug out the charger it instantly shuts down and starts trying to power up in a continnous loop.
Is the battery dead?
Thanks
I think so... You could try another battery but it is possible that you may have fried some guts as well. Was it on when you cooked it in the sun?

It boots when I power it on charger, but if I try to make a phone call or 'stress' the phone, it reboots. Without charger it does not boot.

Already tried a different battery? Its quite cheap and I guess some power cells might have died and that would explain the malfunction, when you "stress" the phone and it needs more power. Maybe it is able to deal with low power, but high output simply takes it down.

I didn't buy a battery yet because I can't find one. I'm on vacation (Italy) and at the local phone service they told me they don't know this phone and asked me where it's from :laugh:. and if I want a battery they have to order it and it takes time.
That's why I came here, hoping for a nice "custom" solution for the problem.
I think the battery does not know how to charge anymore, anyone knows a good clean wipe/format for the battery? besides discharge it complety and wipe stats.(because I cannot discharge it, when it's plugged in it says 100% and if I plug out the charger it dies)
thanks for the replies mates.

Hello all!
it is 3 days now.. i have read all the forum but all the things i have read did not solve my issue.
my phone just keeps on showing the red led light when i plug it to the wall charger and also into the computer usb.
i have tried the following with the following results:
1) pressed multiple times VOL+ with Power for one vibration (with wall charger connected) and each time the phone vibrates, led switches of the then reswitches on red
2) pressed multiple times VOL+ with Power (long hold 3 vibrations) and i get the same result as 1
3) tried to long press VOL- and Power as suggested on the sony forum for 8 seconds, leave it to charge for a few hours and then press VOL+ and Power but nothing changes.
When the phone is not attached to the wall and i try to start it i can hear it vibrate one but nothing else happens.
When i try to connect it to PC Companion to format it i just can't get the pc to recognize it.
Any help please?
I really need to resolve this as soon as i can because it is my main phone
Thanks
Keep your phone on the charger for at least 24 hours WITHOUT INTERRUPTION!
After that use flashtool to flash a new ftf

just tried a 28hour without interruption recharge.. i had the red led on all the time but the phone doesn't yet want to switch on.
i have tried removing the battery.. putting it in.. normal switching on.. just vibrates and nothing is seen on screen
also tried to volume up + power till it vibrates but nothing.
cannot connect to the pc btw.. it doesn't seem to see any new device attached
anyway
It can be battery or hardware problem so I would suggest you to take it to warranty service center.
Water damage...
Happens.
Dry your phone.
Inside.
How can you take the battery out???? You have a c6603 yeah??? Virtually impossible to take the the battery out!!! either take it to sony repair centre ,flash with flashtool,repair using either sus or pc companion!! Failing that,don't bother to try to mod ur phone because you obviously have no idea Mate!!
It's quite easy to take out your battery...
All you need is a hairdryer. aim it at the backglass for a while and it'll let loose without to much trouble. It can cost you your water proofness and definitely your warranty though. So I would never advice someone to do it.

ok since i was tired of not getting no where with all the suggestions i received i then moved towards another method..
i so opened the phone.. took off the battery.. solder wired it to an external power charger i have and charged both on my batteries to full.. (old battery and new one)
i then placed the battery in phone and:
when i power the device it vibrates and screen remains black with no red led
when i volume up + power the devices the stay stays black but the red led magically appears..
what can i do now? knowing that the battery is FULL and that the problem should not be that anymore
Remove battery again so your phone is definitely off, re-insert your battery (don't turn it on) and connect to your pc in fastboot mode. Flash stock kernel and try to boot. If that doesn't work shut your phone down again, and than just flash firmware using flashtool.
