Hey guys,
i had installed TWRP and flashed Excelsus 1.2.2 onto my phone.
Still on a locked bootloader.
When i went to restore my phone.
It restarted and is stuck on the SONY screen and the notification LED is red.
I've tried to connect it to flashtool, but it does not connect.
Tried the power + volume up button for 10 seconds [vibrates once + restarts]
Tried the power + volume up button for 15 seconds [vibrates thrice + restarts]
Tried the power + volume down button [nothing happens]
I can't shut down the phone.
and the Sony Update tool does not detect the phone.

Press power + volume buttons, let it to vibrate thrice and after vibrating thrice immediately release your hand from phone or maybe you could release it while in second vibration itself, this allows the mobile to switch off. Now you can go to flashtool, connect it in flash mode and flash stock firmware. I had this problem yday and I used this method to switch it off!
sorted it out.
I don't really know what i did though.
used Flashtool to flash the stock firmware onto the phone.
still didn't start.
Plugged in my phone a couple of times.
each time i did another driver would install.
i had already installed the Flashtool drivers.
after the last driver installed, the phone started up

Hi, I seem to be having the same problem, accidently flashed the wrong kernel on my xperia Z with stock jellybean 4.3 in hopes of rooting it but now it just gets stuck on sony logo. Could you direct me to the thread where you said you helped a guy with a similar problem? Can't seem to find it.. :good:
Thanx
So my phone will not longer boot. It started like this: all of a sudden it wouldn't work properly when in a phone call, I could hear the other person but they wouldn't hear me. So I just turned off my phone and when I tried to turn it back on the triangle icon wth wrench and screwdriver appeared as seen in the image below (I had around 40% battery). I left it like that for almost an hour and since it wouldn't turn back on I did the power+volume up but it would load back on to the triangle. Then I removed the micro sd and power+volume up and it loaded the sony logo, then the xperia logo, then this sony colored waves/smoke started and the 3rd time this "wave" crossed the screen, it just froze and began a never ending loop of sony+xperia+waves+restart... over and over again :S It stopped only after long pressing power button + volume up. I tried pluggin it on my pc and starting the Sony PC companion but doesnt recognizes the phone. I read in another post that they fixed this issue by connecting the phone to the PC and launching sony's pc updater. But I don't know what's this "sony pc updater" thing, if they mean PC companion Ive tried it out and doesnt work for me.
Thx in advance for any help! (btw, my xperia z is with the latest update installed)

Possible Solution :
Install the STOCK ftf file of Xperia Z into Your Phone Using Flashmode.
What You will need is
1. Flashtool
2. Ftf file for Xperia Z (Download the ftf from your device thread)
Flash The ROM ftf file.
You should be running the phone by the time you finish.
I fixed it!!

As dwarkesh2492 said (thx a lot by the way), all I did was download a stock rom (I found the italian unbranded version here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293794) and flashed it with flashtool beta 6 ( tutorial on how to do it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240614). At first it wouldn't start flashing but I tried several times plugging and unplugging my phone while holding volume down and it finally flashed It was the 1st time I ever flashed a ROM or anything so I'm sure anyone can do it.
I hope it helped.

I had this yesterday, try the power button for about 15 seconds or the above method of power and volume up
If you see the screen in the attached image, then just wait for it to finish working, which the bar at the bottom shows it's doing.

What method exactly worked for you?
I'm having the same triangle screen, I interrupted it by pressing vol up + down + power, and after that it just showed the Sony logo. The battery died and when I try to charge it now, the only sign of life is the red LED and "SONY". I won't go into flashmode (yet) so flashtool is not an option. I'll try to charge it whole night (am in the Netherlands) and try flashtool again tomorrow.
Btw. I am on RomAUR which is nearly stock .253 and this means I have root too. Locked BL. The problem appeared after rebooting the phone because I suddenly didn't mount the external SD.
Any help appreciated, thanks!!

SONY Update Service Is no longer available
But I learned about how to turn off the phone thanks to other of your posts (thanks again!) and that saved my life
My ZU will not boot up either
So after reading this should we NOT try to do a reset using Sony Update Service.app?

Hi guys, I'm new with Xperia phones and also new with rooting,flashing and using recoverys..
I installed a new rom on my device (iHackers rom). When i started installing I had like 25% of battery. When I finished the installation (I didn't flash recovery again because I did that with the help of my computer before, so file - zip was not on my phone) I rebooted my phone. So here's where the problem begins. My phone wouldn't turn on. Black screen all the way. Tried the red button near the SIM card, tried power button and volume up/down, tried power button..nothing powered my phone on, but vibrations were there. The red LED is blinking when i charge the battery (idk if it's even charging). If I take the phone out of the charger, the red LED stops blinking. I can't turn my phone on or get into the recovery mode even after 20 minutes of charging on 220v.
Guys please help..I'm in panic here.

Fastboot or flashmode working or not ?
The first your mistake was to flash with 25% of battery. It's wrote everywhere to do a installation with a fully charged phone. Now probably in the middle of the installation the phone died and the installation was not completed and this mean your phone is corrupted and dead. The only advice I have now for you to left the phone under charger all night, next day with phone switched off keep push volume down and connect the phone via usb to PC, if the PC will recognize the device and it will install drivers flash a Stock FTF straight a way.

Your battery is dead. Does the phone feel warm? Leave it plugged in to charge for a while (at least a few hours, maybe overnight) and it might come back.
Like the OTA warnings says, do not try to flash your phone if less than 50% battery is available. If you do, you are only asking for trouble.

When I woke up in the morning the phone was not warm..it was hot..the whole day i was trying to bring it back to life but there were still only vibrations. When I connect it to my computer, the drivers get installed, but the power on button and combination power button+volume down don't work. The only combination that works is power button+volume up(the phone vibrates 3 times but still stays in the same condition). FlashTool doesn't recognize the phone either.
hold power+volume up. then phone vibrates 3 times and should switch off. wait a minute then try to switch it on just normal. does it slightly vibrate?
now try this again, now with charger pluged in. what happens then?

I think i have solved it..I left phone charging for 3 hours (without heating up), and then i plugged it in my computer. In PC Companion (yeah I never thought it would be that easy), i could restore my phone without even powering it on. I'm now downloading updates..But when I connected, flashtool detected that my fone is in flashmode.
:highfive:

Just wants to said same thing - it's probably in fastboot mode but the battery is dead, just plug it and try flashtool or fastboot.
But O.K.
One advice - guys already post that, I posted that many times as well but...
Never, never, never do that if your battery isn't fully charged.
Charge battery to 100% and restart to TWRP and check your battery percentage...
and you'll see why - it never shows correct info.
The other day I was flashing ROM and had 87% when I flashwd and boot my battery shown 36% and stayed on 36% for a few hours...that's not problem when you are in OS but when you stuck on powered off device - it could be very tricky to power it back.
That's why you can't update official ftf if you don't have more than 50% of battery power...

No it's not.
Ihackers is working without any problems...
I said that many times but I'll repeat...
When you are flashing ROM (ftf) through flashtool, don't connect device immediately.
Open flashtool, select ftf and hit start.
Wait until flashtool say "connect device"
Then plug usb cable while holding vol down.
That way you'll prevent device to restart while it's waiting flashtool to prepare ftf...

I have similar problem, but my battery is still over 85%, and i got this problem when i try to flash cwm recovery with fastboot... what should do?
Hi guys,
I'm wondering if anyone can shed any light on what to do next. I've got an 6903 Xperia Z1 (LB, not rooted, 4.4.2) that seems to be stuck in fastboot or flashmode, with no screen showing and only a red light (some of the time). I've read up everything I can on the boards and have charged it for 18 hours (twice) but to no avail.
Here's what happened:
I used a Chinese car charger that I probably put on upside down (which might mean it shorted the battery).
This put it in a reboot loop that went Sony --> Xperia --> blackness --> Sony etc
I flashed C6903_14.1.G.1.534_[NUT] (no exclusions) which put it in a Sony --> Sony reboot loop.
I then flashed C6903_14.3.A.0.681_Generic_Global-1277-2880_R5C which didn't make any difference.
I flashed C6903_14.1.G.1.534_[NUT] (excluding kernel, baseband - I don't know why) and this put it into black screen only mode (with some steady red LED sometimes).
I charged it for 18 hours.
From here I couldn't get it into flashmode or fastboot mode UNLESS I short the battery with the same charger.
Once I shorted the battery again I managed to get it into flashmode (permanently, I think) and do a "repair" on the Sony Bridge for Mac up to the latest android. It went fine, apparently, but unplugging it didn't allow it to be turned off or turned on again. It seems like now when it's plugged in it's always in flashmode (or I can put it in fastboot mode). I can flash whatever I want, it seems, but to no avail.
I have since flashed both the above FTFs.
Any suggestions for what to do next?
Thank you!
Press and hold both the power button and volume up button until it vibrates 3 times.
Then do a repair again.
Then throw that Chinese charger in the bin
then flash a 534 ftf, install dual recovery then flash the rom of your choice.

Thanks Greg - I've spent the last day trying to get my phone to respond again... no vibrations, no turning on or off. Just the red LED. Hmmm.
Leave it on charge for 24 goes and try again

never flash your phone when the battery below 50%
you can try to charge your phone or use a new fully charged battery and flash stock rom as @armuttaqin says
