Hello, sorry if this question had been posted before. I just confusing with my Xperia Z1. It's just blank screen, no Sony logo, no boot animation, etc.
I've tried to hold power+vol up but nothing happen. When i put the charge on and i press the power+vol up, it vibrate three times and nothing happen.
What should i do with this?? I hope it's not hardware failure.
Thx for the answer and suggestion.

When you hear the three times vibration then you shutting down your phone and after that the phone is turned off completely, then leave it under wall charger via USB or Dock for minimum 4 hours, if it do not turn on then you have to flash a new Firmware OR Repair via PC Companion. Download Official Sony PC Companion and repair your phone. Other way is to use Flashtool and download the latest FTF from Mega Collection and flash it. Then it should turn on.

if nothing is happening just the LED red blinks even when you put the device in the charge, its hard bricked and will be fixed just with opening the phone and relive it with test point ...

If it's brick, no prob, let's begin
Requirements:
The latest Flash Tools version, the latest FTF file of your phone, or any FTF file you want
Plug your phone to AC charger for about one or two minutes, and if you see red LED, now your phone is OK
1) If your phone has more than 50 percent charges, you can unplug it
2) If it has less 50 percent, let it charge for about an hour or more till it reaches 70 percent
So, no matter the first way or second, after you unplug it, now you can now connect your phone via USB and flash it
If you do everything correctly and if nothing goes wrong, after flashing, you can use your phone without any problem
If you couldn't do it, inform me to help you more
Look at the micro sd slot. Is there a red stripe? Or white?
If red, it's a water damage

It happened exactly the same with mine. I was on stock rom, and went to the swimming pool with it. But the stripe is white.
I cannot turn it on and only get the red light blinking when is plugged into the charger...

Try the hard brick fix (if you have warranty send to Sony instead). I doubt it'll do anything because it seems by your decription the hardware is damaged physically, but its worth a shot.

Drain your battery completely
By Pressing and holding volume up and power button for 15 second, no vibration dont worry just hold it for 15 seconds and forget your phone for 1-2 days
Get working charger and usb cable check it then connect charger to phone there should be red light
Leave your phone for 3-4 hours
Now disconnect your phone from charger
Again check usb cable and drivers in pc
Open flashtool and get stock ftf ready for flashing
Once the dialog box appears with phone's animation
press and hold just volume down button and connect your phone with pc and immediately Release volume down button as soon as dialogue box disappears
Then disconnect phone when instructed in flashtool and wait for 4-5 minutes
Now try to turn on the phone.
Main thing is to have patience
This should work as i have my phone in same hardbricked state twice and this brought life in my phone back..!
This fixed mine

I hope, your solution works for me too. I ordered a battery and waiting for delivering it. If it won't work, I'll write here to help someone like us who wants to order a new battery.
Edit:
After battery changing, the phone worked. I don't know why, but it had been locked and rebooted repeatedly. Then I resetted to the factory settings. After that, it has been started to run well.
I've done searching on this forum but I haven't found any answers that are specific to my issue. I just bought this Xperia SP from a retailer online. It may be a refurb, I'm not sure, but it looks brand new. Anyways, when I opened the box and tried to turn it on, nothing happened. Ok I thought, I'll just charge it. When I charge it, the red light on the bottom just comes and goes. Stays on for a few minutes, then goes off for a few minutes. I let it charge for almost 6 hours like this and nothing has happened. When I plug the phone into my PC you hear the USB connected sound, but right after you hear the disconnected sound, and nothing shows up in device manager. I tried the Vol+ and Power button combo and nothing happens. I tried holding the reset button on the back for 5-10 seconds and nothing happens. I get no vibrations at all. The phone is not detected in any program like SUS, Flashtool, or PC companion. Some times when I press the power button I get 2 red short flashes, I have no idea what this means as it's not consistent, and only happens every once in a while. Anyways, I think I may just return it and hope for a replacement :\ Any ideas?

Faced with same issue a month ago, after a buy Xperia SP from Ebay. Same symptoms: red light while charging, sound on PC when I first time connect with it, with no luck at all. First of my attempts to fix this, is changing my usb cable, then installing universal android usb driver, but nothing helped me. Then I just ask google for my problem . This is an answer that helped me:
Xperia SP comes with a non removable battery.So turning off in this condition is not possible by removing battery.The volume up+power button doesnt work in Xperia SP unlike other phones.The solution is given below.
Remove the back cover of Xperia SP and look for a small yellow dot on mid bottom with “OFF” written below it. Check the image below.
Now “Press & Hold Down the OFF Button, using a tip of pen or any other pointed object for around 10 seconds”. Phones vibrates and will be switched off automatically. Check image below.
P.S. Don’t use very sharp objects as it may damage the OFF Button.
Now phone restarts.
After restarting we found that our Xperia SP got back to normal temperature and everything was fine. :smileyhappy: We were able to charge our Xperia SP again, device was cool.
Hope it will work for you also

I don't think you read my post thoroughly. I tried the reset button on the back, it didn't do anything.
Plug the phone into the computer, reset your device (yellow button), than immediately press and hold volume down key. If computer respond with sound and green led notification on phone, next step is SUS (Sony update service) to factory reset your device and start with latest stock firmware.

That's actually a good idea and I hadn't tried it. However, after trying it now it still didn't work :\ Still nothing. It's as if my reset button doesn't even do anything. I push it with a small object and it doesn't feel like an actual button, there's no movement to it.
I get the green LED for some seconds but then it turns off and boots back up to the red LED again. Any help?
I believe the problem was because of no charge or the phone was too hot?
Anyways, I'm glad to say that I let it charge first and then let it cool down, download a stock tft firmware and flashed it using Flashtool. Now everything is fine until now.
Going to try and see if I can install that 4.4.4 ROM, again...
I encountered that problem when i updated my phone my phone previously, i just reflashed my ftf.

I had a simmilar issue , look what you have to do:
1- Connect the phone to the PC , you must see the red light , if not wait few minuts , you must see it.
2- When you have the red light , put the phone near of you and keep you eyes on it for 5-15 minuits , you must see the green light turn on.
3- When you got the green light take your phone , and even if it goes off , now hold the VOL - botton and then hold the Off botton in the bottom of back of the phone for 7-10 seconds , you must the the green light turn off and on again. (you have to do all of that while it's still connected to PC)
When the green light turned on again that mean you are on flashmode , now better to use Flashtool to flash a firmwate.
Notice: the phone may get disconnect while flashing , so you must to flash it in 2 levels: first one by excluding the system.sin then flash it.
The second time you redo those steps to get into flashmode again , go and flash only system.sin be uncheck the wipe boxes , and by checking all exclude boxes but the system one.
You may fail flashing the system many times because it's the longest step , so try to charge your phone more time and try to flash it again and again.
I've test everything...!!!

If the LED is on for short time it can be recovered
Use Flashtool to flash a new firmware to your phone
1. Get flashtool (get version 0.9.18.6)
2. Download stock firmware for your phone
3. Move downloaded firmware to the flashtool firmware folder
4. make sure you have all ADB drivers - and drivers for your phone
5. In flashtool click on the lighting icon and click the firmware you downloaded and click FLASH (wait for process to finish)
6. When it says, turn the phone off - hold the volume down button while plugging the phone in
7. should start flashing the firmware, just leave it to do its thing

Any firmware will do, it doesn't matter
Its all the same, just has different apps suited to the country really, and different basebands - but that no matter
usually when you charge it the red LED should stay on but this is probably due to your phone not completely booting
So my z3 is fine?.
I thought my z3 is dead already hahaha . I was gonna sell the parts ??
I can't turn on the phone. I f I plug it only the led will be on.? No viberate..

Okay i see now... you have a Z3 in a Z3C Forum..
Okay for Z3 same steps, just use xperiafirm to find the firmware for your phone, and download it
Its z3c mine
Can we do pm?
correction its z3c i mean
I have a z3c too, bought it second hand with 5.0.1 on it. Now a second time it blacked out on me. The first time it just restarted after several days ... Now it wont startup or vibrate, troubleshooting is without any effect. Only red charging led when "charging" (slightly unstable brightness), the led stays on for 1 h or longer then switch off and stays off for 1 hr or longer. Then lights again, all by itself. I tried: powerbutton+volume up, powerbutton+volume down, small yellow button, keeping it away from charging. All nothing. PC-companion doesnot connect. Flashtool doesnot connect. Please advise.
If Flashtool/SUS/And Sony PC Companion don't work, then there is no option but to bring the phone to your nearest Sony Service Center and let them fix it
So I tried to replace my screen on my Xperia Z c6603 and since then all i get is a red notification led for like 5-10 seconds. It is not flashing.. Sometimes I get this red notification led by pressing the power button, but that is very rare. Also I know for sure that my battery is not dead. I don't have any idea if it is bricked or if it is an hardware issue, I'm not able to find out which of those issues it is. And if I try to connect my phone to my computer, i will get the red notification light and my computer doesn't even discover the phone..
