Hi!
My XZ is dead. There is just Red Light and black screen. When i reset it with on with Power + Volume Up it shows up flashing the red light twice and then no more LED light. Only when i switch it to the USB Charger it gets again permanent in red light.
It seems it can connect with Flashtool when i reset with Power+Volume Up, but ends with "Processing of loader.sin finished with errors.". Tried to flash C6603_10.3.A.0.423_Generic DE
With Sony Update Service i cant get any connection to the phone.
Phone is rooted and Bootloader is unlocked. (6603)
//Update:
Ok, i fixed by myself. This Thread from AhmedZadjali http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/help/how-unbricked-sony-xperia-z-c6603-t2615460 helped me a lot.
I only Hold Power + Volume Up till device vibrates three times so its shutdown. After that i used EMMA from Sony Mobile, installed programm and drivers under Win 8.1 After that plug in device with original sony usb cable. Important: Use a USB slot direct of your pc or laptop. Connectiong With a USB Hub it dont work. Flashing the Firmware wit EMMA and restart after the sucessful process. Starting with 2 % Charge in Stock FW - charging now and i am happy that my device is revived and unbricked

Hello,
I have a question about the flashmode mode : when my phone is off, I press Volume Down and plug the USB cable, the led pass from off to red, green and off.
I want to know if it must be green all the time and if there is something on screen.
Because some times I have difficulties to repair my phone with Sony Update Service.
Edit:
After some tests on Windows and Linux, if I plug my phone in flashmode, after 1 minute it reboot.
I had the same problems but then I did the following steps 1- download SONY PCC 2- Download the flash-tool windows ver. 3- Download the .ftf 4- Shut down the device 5- you have to open the flash tool then start to flash the .ftf 6- An image will appear that will tell you to plug the device 7- Start to press the lower volume button then plug it you will have 45sec before it reboots (to flash the ftf) . there will be a red then green lights for less than 2 sec then it will be dark (this is the flash mode for the Xperia z) the flash tool will detect it
Hit the thanks button if i helped you
Mine does the same (turns green on for a split second only) but works fine.

Same here: xperia Z3 Compact (D5833) in FLASH mode green LED flashes, then red LED and then LED is off.
Hello, yesterday I tried to flash this ROM: C6603_10.7.A.0.222_Customized MEA.ftt. I succeeded, although I relized I didn't wipe...so I (fool of me) flashed again, and here is when the trouble came.
Flash failed and since then I got the SONY screen and then a message saying: "the software update failed. make sure your phone is connected to the computer and try again" and then shut off itself. If I try to charge to the electricity socket it is when the loop comes in...this time no error screen, just sony and turns off and on sony screen offs, etc...
I thought of flashing again, but the problem here is when the device won't stand in flashmode more than 15-20 seconds and then the red light led turns off (as if the device had been disconnected) and therefore flashing is impossible (it starts correctly but when the red light turns off a error message "31 : A device attached to the system is not functioning" appears, as if I unplugged the phone...)
I also tried to restore with pc companion but the problem of the short flashmode still goes on. What can I do????why the device turns off (or it seems that) after connecting to the pc??
Curiously, I can get to fastboot mode (when connected to the pc, if I push UP button led light turn blue and keep it until I unplug, contrarily to what happens with the flahsmode)
The model is unlocked bootloader, but it is not rooted and I could not install recovery, so wiping through it is dismissed...
Is it possible to flash from fastboot (since in flashmode is impossible?)
I also tried a hard reset by pushing + and - buttons while starting, and 3 vibres happen and it tuns off but the problem still continue...
PLEASE HELPPPPPP
Hi Guys,
I really need your help unbrick my Xperia Z1 C902.
Here's what happened:
I tried to flash a custom rom that wasn't compatible VIA AROMA ( I had MiUi 7 custom rom ) and it is now dead. It won't boot. No sign of life. No Vibration when pressed vol up+Power . Hard reset ( via sim slot ) has no affect on the Phone. No recogniztion to USB on laptop ( tried other USB cables as well ).
I have left the phone be charged overnight assuming the flash took a toll on the battery ( it was about 30% when I flashed the phone )and in the morning there was a red LED. Assuming the battery had enougfh power I tried to turn it on, connect to Laptop, Fast boot mode, flash mode but with no luck.
Day2:
Left the phone connected to the stock charger for about 20 hours or so.
No LED lights. No vibrations. No sign of detection on the laptop.
Sony Companion will not detect my phone via fastmode as well.
This phone is out of warranty so I was hoping you can help save some bucks before I take it to the Sony centre.
I looked through XDA all day but nothing has helped me bring my phone back to life.
EDIT:
I have downloaded India Stcok ROM via Xperifirm and tried to flash it but the flashtool does not detect the phone. Fastboot and Flashmode both does not detect the phone. Strange thing is, when I plug the phone to laptop holding the Vol down button, a red LED blinks for few seconds but the fastboot does not work ( as my phone has bootloader unlocked )
ADB does not work - No devices connected.
If there is anyway I can flash or install TWRP recovery ( or any for that matter ), I have the old working MiUI rom in the external SD card.
I will owe you a beer or two and a dinner if you 're able to bring my phone back to life. Please I am desperate.

Hi.
You have flashing led that means there is some hope first press and hold hard reset button for 15-20 seconds under sim cover then realizes it. Now plug in charger and dont touch the phone before 4-5 hours. Let it charge even though red led comes on.
After that disconnect your phone and don't turn it on wait for 5 minutes.
Also do check if the flash tool drivers are properly installed (window 8 and newer needs you to disable driver signature enforcement) use flashtool version 0.9.19.0, dont know why but this version works best for me.
Flash *.108 firmware (available in xda) also do always check hash after downloading.
Now try to flash the firmware as normally we do and hope for the best. This method worked fine for me many times.
Good luck..! [emoji111]
The flashing Red LED is bringing back some really bad memories of my own Hard brick. Try what kathanpatel suggests first - holding the reset button down.
Are your symptoms identical to this?:

There is a link to a post with instructions on recovering from the hard brick. Good luck.

The red button in a sim slot won't have any effect unless your phone is connected to the charger (not computer). Connect the charger, press and hold the red button for about 10 seconds until there is vibration. Then immediately push and hold the power button for a few seconds.

hello,
have a c5303 xperia sp and im trying to re-flash the stock rom using flashtool64. the phone doesnt power on but if i hold vol up/down then plug the phone into my pc via usb the respective fastboot/flash mode led colour lights up and it pops up on my computer to confirm it. when i try flash the stock rom, is gives me a error about system.sin, since then i am not able to get into flash/fastboot modes on my phone. as this has happened before (the phone not going into fastboot) im pretty sure i can get it to flash without system.sin then use fastboot to do it after.
the screen is completely blank, not even a backlight. when the usb is plugged in without a mode, it is red on the phones led, when i unplug it and try to turn it on, the red led flashes and nothing happens.
thanks in advance!
fixed it nvm
