I was formating sd card in recovery mode, and then I chose "reboot to system" option, for leaving recovery. The telephone turn off. And nothing more. The battery was about 80%.
The telephone don't react on anything. No power button (or holding power button+volumeUp). If I connect usb charger, it doesn't do anything. If I connect PC via USB, there is no new device in PC. No led blinking.
I tried charging for hole day and night, but nothing changed.
I opened the case (it is just on screw) and disconnect and reconnect the battery. But nothing changed.
So I disconnect the battery again and connect usb. The red LED now blinks every second. And when I'm holding the power button, it doesn't do anything. But it is still the same.. black screen, turned off, no computer connection..
Have you any idea, what can I do? What can I try? Thx

You shouldn't have rebooted into system after wiping it in the first place, because you have no system now. You might try flashing any custom rom's kernel (boot.img) if your device is unlocked. You do it using Flashtool. First copy the boot.img from the rom's zip and paste it somewhere, then select the lightning bolt icon in flashtool, select fastboot mode. Then connect your phone to pc while holding volume + button and keep holding it until blue led lights up. Then in flashtool on the right side choose to flash kernel and select the boot.img you copied from the rom before. After that you should be able to boot into recovery and install any custom rom. If you do not have any custom rom on your phone, you can only transfer it from pc to your microSd card using the sd card adapter and then put the sd card back in your phone.
If your bootloader is NOT unlocked, then you can only try connecting your phone to pc while holding the volume - button until green led lights up. If it doesn't light up, I believe your phone is hard bricked and you can't do anything much. If it does light up, you can download any firmware for your phone in .ftf format and flash it using the same method as described above, but instead of choosing fastboot mode, you have to choose flashmode and select the .ftf you downloaded.

This. I was in the same situation like you just few hours ago. I decided to install custom stock based rom and I rebooted after factory reset. My phone wasn't turning on or anything, just dead brick. I left it for few hours and then I saw that red led was blinking while I was trying to turn it on. So I plugged it into my PC and it was charging (first success). I used flashtool and after many, and I mean it, errors it managed to flash my stock rom.
Now I am stuck at installing CWM v7 but that is another story ; )

Hey guys,
A while back I tried to root my Xperia T and putting CWM on it. Something went wrong and I don't exactly know what. It went into a boot loop.
Every time it starts up, the LED turns purple for a couple of seconds and it reboots again. I waited for the battery to drain and honestly forgot about it.
Now i found it again and i want to get it out of the boot loop. The wierd thing is that I can get into ClockWorkMod recovery but nothing else. When in startup and I push VOL- it goes into CWM without a problem. It's like the normal firmware is missing and it can only get into CWM. Is this possible?
And i am trying to flash the stock firmware on it. But when i try to connect with my pc (drivers an flashtool in place and working) it doesn't really seem to connect. It worked 1 time out of the last 5 tries. But when i tried to flash, it said ERROR. The phone get's the blue LED when i connect it. but this only workes if my timing is exactly right in the boot loop. I will try to manage it again to get some screenshots.
I'll update when i have screenshots and everything (with the proper ERROR code)
In the meantime, does anyone have any clue of what is going on?
Thanks:good:,

Blue LED means you're in Fastboot mode, you need to put it into Flashmode (green LED) for it to work. If Vol Down puts it into Fastboot mode, then Vol Up would put it in Flashmode (I assume). Considering you're talking about timing, then it seems you don't know how to put it into Fastboot/Flash mode properly.
1.- Turn off your phone.
2.- Connect the USB cable to your computer
3.- Open Flashtool
4.- Press down the corresponding volume button (keep it pressed), and connect USB cable to your phone
Alternatively, you could also connect your sdcard to your computer and copy a flashable ROM to it, then flash it in recovery. It seems your /system partition/folder is either incomplete or damaged.

Hey,
thanks for the reply.
The problem is that i can't turn the phone off. The only way it stays off is when the battery is dead. Like it is now. I have just tried what you said. VOL- gives the green LED for flashmode. But even when it is in flashmode and connected with my pc(pc also said it's connected) it keeps rebooting. So the connection switches on and of every 30 seconds or so. I found out that there was a wrong file in the flashtool firmware folder. after trying to flash the standard firmware it tried to do something else. I've removed the file and set it up right.
When it was connected (green light and everything) I got this;
"09/025/2014 17:25:27 - ERROR - (Bundle.java:440) - Cannot delete C:\Flashtool\.\firmwares\prepared\system.sin"
"09/025/2014 17:25:39 - ERROR - (Bundle.java:440) - Cannot delete C:\Flashtool\.\firmwares\prepared\system.sin"
And that was all. I will try again in a few minutes, but maybe I missed something.
[EDIT]
Tried a few more times. VOL- to flashmode, connected with pc. Flashtool starts loading the green bar.
After a couple of minutes it stops and Flashtool says this:
09/021/2014 18:21:11 - ERROR - (X10flash.java:523) - Read error :31 : Een apparaat dat op het systeem is aangesloten, werkt niet.
09/021/2014 18:21:11 - ERROR - (X10flash.java:524) - Error flashing. Aborted
(Een apparaat dat op het systeem is aangesloten, werkt niet. -> English -> The device that is connected to the system, doesn't work.)
And the thing that irritates me most of all is the X10flash.java:52.. part. Why does it say X10flash when a Xperia T lt30p is connected en i'm trying to flash LT30_9.2.A.1.205_CH or LT30p_9.2.A.0.295_Generic IT.
I can't wrap my head around it.
I put some attachments in here so you can see what I see. Can someone see what I'm doing wrong or not doing at all?
I seriously do not know how or why. But i did it. Flashtool did not give a log or anything(with previous phones i saw a long list.) it looked like it did not do anything. but the phone is booting into android as we speak!
Thanks for the help Antiga Prime! not a lot, but enough!:laugh:
Now i need to find out how to delete all thisXD
Take the battery out and in, then leave it connected to the charger for one full day, don't do anything with it.
Xperia T doesn't let you take out the battery that easy. But it's fixed. I just need to know how to delete this thread

I was using an app called bootbox I changed the boot screen animation. I backed up the original boot screen animation. I also did an online nandroid backup to the sd card 01, removable. I saw another boot animation I wanted to try but bootbox doesn't give the option to delete a previously downloaded boot animation. After the second boot animation the phone would go into a bootloop. So I powered it up and held down the power button. I restored it with the backup without wiping the phone. It gave me a missing boot error. Now the device is hard bricked with only the led occasionally on green when holding down the power button with it plugged into my laptop with the battery out. Then the led just sits flashing red in second intervals. It won't come on period. Is there a way to get my phone out of this hard brick status? Thanks. I have the X Rockers rom installed on it, it's rooted, with an unlocked bootloader and Android 4.3. When holding down power and volume buttons it no longer vibrates, just the LED either comes on green for 10 seconds if just the power button and blue for 10 seconds with power and volume buttons. The LED stays solid then after 10 seconds shut off and nothing. Thanks.
In your case, if flashtool or other tool doesn't work at all, you better to bring your device to SC. or upgrade your device..

It's not hardbricked. Green led = Flashmode / Blue led = Fastboot mode.
If it's flashing Red than most likely your battery is depleted. Since it doesn't seem to be a kernel problem, try charging your phone normally, or get a replacement battery, or use a universal battery charger, then you can try booting into Recovery and use ADB to delete the bootanimation.zip file that most likely is preventing the phone from booting up (or any other file, don't know what Bootbox does).
If that is too complicated for you, you can always connect it in flashmode and flash a stock rom again, since your bootloader is unlocked. Just remember the key here is to charge your battery.
cool but

How do I get into recovery or flashmode and what is adb? Bootbox simply changes the boot animation. The phone ? also doesn't vibrate. When you connect it to the laptop it makes the usb connect sound then 10 seconds later the usb disconnect sound happens. Thx A.
edit: fixed it, just flashed a stock FTF, i'll dot the whole process again later on and hope this time it works out
You can close teh thread (i've tried to delete it but can't find the option)
I've just checked that I can boot my phone and recovery works. But for instance when i try to put service mode it gives an error with IMEI
edit: i've booted to the other recovery (using volume up) and installed the pre-rooted FW again. Shut down and tried again the flashmode process but still no luck, red and quick green light. After booting the phone, it seems to work basically, but wifi not working, it doesn't turn on.
What should the next step be?
The computer does not recognize the phone when my connect it to the USB port, not even charge. The only thing that happens is a flash of red light then green light. Same thing if phone is shut down when i connect the usb cable, red flash, then sony screen appears, then green light, and finally it vibrates two times before showing the level of battery, but without actually charging it.
Anf if i try a Vol Down+Power when in standby and connect with usb cable, it shows a quick red then green flash, and then nothing.
Ok i fixed that problem apparently the USB cable decided to stop working...
Now i have another problem as I decided to install the deodexed ROM and now my phone gets stuck at the sony screen and i can't even boot to recovery.
What i did to install:
Boot to recovery using Volume Up (PhilZ)
Prepare to install new rom (which formats Data, cache, etc)
Install ROM form SDcard1
Everything went fine but at the end it says "root lost or something" I put yes, then rebooted to system, and got stuck on sony screen....
What did i do wrong and how to fix it??
Thanks for the help!
Flashtool does not recognize my device

When I plug the phone into my computer or a wall outlet and hold the UP volume button the LED flashes red then turns blue. It stays blue.
When I plug the phone into my computer or a wall outlet and hold the DOWN volume button the LED flashes red then green then the LED turns off.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

When I get to step 6 nothing happens. it's like I can't get into Flashmode. It just repeats connect your device. No matter how many times I do it or how long I hold the button. It's not recognizing the device. PC companion doesnt recognize it either.

Yes. I broke the charger connector thing in the phone. I had it repaired and it was working. I honestly think the place that repaired it messed with the phone to get more money out of me.
They fixed it and when I took it, once it ran out of battery it started to do the same thing again. I cant figure out what it is.

your solution is not going to help because its a hardware problem and pc companion wont help since the phone wont even boot up
in a similar (or worse) problem :
was just using the phone when it hangs .. Instead being smart and patient, I tried to hard-reset it .. the screen goes dark, my android wear disconnect .. but then I literally got nothing ..
tried to put it to the cradle, connect the USB to computer, no lights, nothing
fastboot mode : volume up + connect USB, no lights, nothing
hold power button : no lights, nothing ..
the phone feels cold, so the procs seems to be sleeping ...
any ideas ?

believe me hard reset didnt do that. Either your battery died and now you need a new battery or you phone died and now you need a new phone
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
