[Q] My Si won't start

Hi, I read some earlier posts about same problem as mine but they all failed ad changing boot loader or something else, but my situation is different.
I was chatting with friend on whatsapp nothing unusually battery was at 35% (btw I recently installed swapper maybe this has something with problem) and phone get freeze, I wait a little and I notice it is not working at all, I waited another 1 min and tryed to pull out battery but before I done that phone turned off itself, and I tryed to turn it on again but phone won't turn on, nothing shows on display, I tryed to put it in recovery mode, download mode nothing, I tryed to connect it on charger and pc with and without battery still nothing...
Did time came to spend a few bucks to repair it or this is just software fault ?

P.S. I recently installed cyanogen mod Smoothie V2 and CWM5504-CM9-recovery.
It was working almost as perfect except some short freezing when web browsing.

You could try to use a JIG. It will force the device to boot in download mode and them you can try to flash with Odin
You can find a guide here: http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&sourc...94HoAw&usg=AFQjCNHbzGIi_e55lP8M8jFMmcqpKCtkxw
If its not working tell me back
Hope i helped

Xperia z wifi failing

My wifi stopped working since 2 weeks ago after a abnormal crash. Every time when I try to turn on wifi, it keeps saying turning on, but never did. Which causes the Stamina mode not working anymore.(and I think the phone keeps attempting to turn on wifi also increases battery usage) The Bluetooth also stopped working since then. I did factory reset number of times and Repair with PC companion, still not a chance.
Finally, I found a temp. solution, which I completely drain the battery and charge it from 0% to 100% with phone off. It seems this could reset the wifi problem. But once I connect back to my home wifi, it would cause an abnormal freeze(notification led become RED) and then reboot automatically, and then wifi stop working again. I searched a few posts and some people with xperia S had a similar wifi problem, but no solution.
I got a feeling that something crashes the wifi driver, and this cannot be reset either factory reset or SUS repair. Is there anyone here got a similar problem like me? Or anyone could explain what actually happening to my phone?
Thx

Did you had any luck with your WiFi? I have exactly the same problem,it keeps turning on without able see any network and the battery discharge faster.This happened to me after installing the app of dsploit,Tried to re-install the rom and re-lock the bootloader but still the same.
You better send to service center for repairing than fix it your self,very waste time and your money.if like to fix yourself better go to buy ap set not original.thing wisely,Man!!

Do you know how much money i will pay? because i have unlocked the bootloader and i think it voids the warranty because i did that but i will relock it when i'll give it to the service center.
i had same trouble then, but when i restore my backup its working great again! :laugh:

[Q] my xperia x8 turns on and off again and again

Hello everyone.
I just got my xperia x8 from my brother because he didn't know how to fix it.
The phone seems like it has not even a scratch.
The issue is that everytime i turn it on it is just turning on and off and on and off again and again.
I don't even have time to input my pin.
The battery always seems to be drained although i charge it occasionally.
I have updated it's os with pc companion, but it keeps doing the same thing.
Is there anything that i can do to fix it?

try to flash stock frimware through flash tools(this wipes the data & reinstalls the system partition)
Normally flashing fixes all software fault but if your hardware is damaged so you shouldnt be hopeful.
I think its a sw problem but even an empty battery can cause exactly the same react.(put another battery then try flashtools)
Hope i could help you

that's our little greek secret... no modifications to the software but he kinda had troubles with this mobile for the whole period of time he owned it.he didn't receive messages in the particular device as far as i can remember. the battery doesn't seem to have anything wrong though.it is just sliiiightly puffed but nothing that alerting.i mean i havent charged it for a long time and it can still power the mobile's "neverending loop". if there was a problem wouldnt it not turn on at all or something? i don't have an extra battery and i'm thinking of getting through with the flash stock romafter i charge it a bit.. should i? and if yes, how? i've never done that (a guide would be great )

Xperia Z keeps shutting down on boot

Hi, before my xperia z used to keep shutting down before, I think it was because my phone was overheating but that was only when I was using apps like youtube and snapchat. Now it shuts down every time. When I turn it on it stays on the sony logo part for around 5 seconds and completely ****s down. I tried re flashing the ftf from flashtool and that still didnt fix it. I also tried using the repair my phone function on pc companion and it still didnt work. I dont know what I did wrong before, im not sure if it was because I unlocked my bootloader and saved my TA partition. Im not sure. But the phone was fine after I unlocked my bootloader. So I cant access the actual phone but I can put it on flashmode and fastboot. Someone help me please.

Also everytime I unplug it, it turns off
Hi if anytime you disconnect the USB cable the phone power off itself, there is a problem with the battery or with the circuit that manages the battery, it's a know problem and most of the times a battery change fix this issue..
The phone has never take water?
Previously when the phone auto restart itself, was warm?

Nope, Ive never put it in water, and yes it was warm. Everytime I tried to use it, it became warm. I ordered a new battery, hopefully it should fix the issue. I used to be able to use it when it was plugged in, now when it is plugged in it turns off after 5 seconds.
