hi guys,
i need big help with my xperia Z. but 1st let me start my xperia story, 1st i wake up from bed i feels my phone temp really high something like 40deg or something then i turn off the phone hoping it's turn cool abit. but when i try to start the phone again i can see nothing come out. so i left it cool for 2 3 days then i can see it back to normal. when i put back the simcard it's turn off again. i have try many thing like update using sony pc companion but still the same and also i try using emma it's keep saying my phone is lock then i try flash using FlashTool64 also the process done but still won't turn on. but the wired thing is when i plug to charge it i can see logo symbol comeout but it's stop only when charging icon display. i attach my video here. hope u guys can help me up with this problem. so sad im using it only 2 month and this thing happen...
p/s :- i have send to sony centre at my place and the staff says he cant accept it cos its and AP(phone is not from my countries). they only can fix the phone buy from inside countries. it's make me feels sick with sony support in terengganu (malaysia).

thanks for read my Thread.

sorry i can't post url to my youtube video. only can tell how to see the video. on the search please type "Sony xperia z wont start booting" from Edy Ahmed.

Remove the charging cable and try to turn it on again.
Use the stock charger that came with the phone.

Without the sim card the phone boot?
Did you tried the hard shutdown(volume up + power for 15 seconds till you feel 3 vibrations)?
Did you tried to flash another firmware with flashtool?
Did you tried sony update service?

i try to download it now, thanks dear! :good:

looks like still the same

I've had exactly the same problem, i've fully flashed first with Sony Update Service and i've re-downloaded the latest flashtool version and that's worked,
Also be sure that you have your smartphone correctly installed.
Have you tried?

I think something broke cause you use not the original charger.

You should try to fully restore your phone and don't try to flash rom anymore or you'll brick it

Had the same but when used that software repair tool from Sony. My Phone was recovered with .245 even I had. 257 earlier.

Im on O2 UK and i've got the update waiting in my notifications, just not done it yet!
Got it like a week ago.

I bought the phone unlocked just over a week ago and updated it straight away to .245.
Have you tried using 'SUS' rather than PC Companion?

I loaded PC Companion and it said .257 was the latest. I then rooted and loaded a custom ROM based on .245 then tried PC Companion again and it said a new update was available and listed .245.

Sony seem to control their updates by "SI" number (have a look under the back panel of your phone for your 'original' one). The SI number relates to a specific market, i.e. factory unlocked UK, EE UK, Vodafone UK, etc. will all have different SI numbers and all get updates at different times.
The reason you have an update available now where you didn't previously is because the custom ROM you flashed has a different SI number than your original phone came with -- you can verify this by checking your SI number against the one in your build.prop file on the line "ro.semc.version.cust".

Which is different to mine (a factory unlocked UK device). Your choices now are to either wait until your carrier has signed off the latest firmware, at which point the update will show up in SUS and probably on PC Companion too, or you can take matters in to your own hands...

Im livin in germany and I was also on 257 and sus and system said, that Im up to date (o2 provider).
So I decided, to flash the 245 fw manually with the flashtool via pc, cause I didnt want to wait.

[Q] How to know if a new official firmware is released

Hi,
I'm kind of lost right now, there's an update 14.2.A.1.136, that started rolling out in 30/01/2014, but until now my phone still on 14.2.A.0.290.
I just want to know if there's a way to test if an update is available in my country or not.
Second question is, if i root my phone, i can have the official updates ?

Try it with the PC Companion
Gesendet von meinem C6903 mit Tapatalk

Well, that was an obvious answer, that's the main problem, pc companion doesn't show that i can update, i tried sony update service, but nothing.
It wasn't my question, i asked about the availability of the update in my country.

You didn't say where you are for starters mate.
Just use flashtool.

It was an obvious answer because it the correct answer. If PCCompanion does not give you an update then your country/carrier has not received the update yet.
"How to know if a new official firmware is released?" The answer is, you see it on PCCompanion.

Not always. Try PC companion, SUS and ota. I have run into instances where PC companion shows nothing but SUS updates the device.

Look for a windows program called xperia update checker a dev on xda created it just Google it you should find it pretty quick...it checks if the update is available for your carrier it will save you checking Pc companion and the rest

Many many thanks !!!! this is the answer i wanted, btw, no carrier here (Morocco) has the Xperia Z1, a friend of mine bough it, all i remember is that it had a lot of vodafone stuff in it, but it did updates until the 14.2.A.0.290, so i guess it's related to its origin country.

c6603 became c6602

hello
my xperia z (c6603) faced a proplem yesterday..
while restarting , it kept giving me (optimising apps) as if it's being updated while i didn't make anything
when it's finished , it restarts again and again doing the same thing
i asked for help and someone has downloaded a new software
then i found my phone model number is (c6602) in settings ......on kitkat ( it was on lollipop 5.1 )
even i typed *#*#7378423#*#* model is c6602 and on pc companion also
in service types there was 4 types GSM bands 3 types umts and 6 types of LTE
how can this be possible?
and what's the solution
thanx

"Someone" flashed wrong ftf for you. Flash C6603 ftf with Flashtool it should fix that.
Good Luck.
