I was just listening to music from TF3D and all of a sudden the screen turned off, music stopped, and the power button at the top was glowing red for a few seconds. I tried turning it back on, removing and reinserting the battery, but nothing happens. I can't turn it back on at all!
One thing I do notice is if I remove the battery, and plug in the usb cable connected to my computer, the power button glows red, but I can't turn it on. If I insert the battery, and then plug in the USB, the button doesn't glow red.
How would I recover the phone?

Try charging your phone for about an hour. The red light under the power button happened to me when i had used up all of my juice.
yeah i had the same problem and i had been very frightened of it...
just charge it...
Ah ok. Weird! Because when I was listening to music I had just taken it off the charger and it said 90% battery! And I had only listened to one song. I guess the battery meter was telling me false info =(
Thanks all
well maybe your battery was still kinda "new" so it wasnt showing correct data
a red light?
cool ... is this a phone or a light-generator?
it was the first pda with making so much noises by optical... but is good ...
Can anyone explain me how is the red light under the power button? The light doesn't come out from the illumination light, does it? I wanna see how is the light. Screenshot will be better.
It doesnt come out form the illumination light. It's by the power button. Usually it blinks when your battery is at 5% or close to total drained.
It´s a light that´s gives you battery error. I spent 2 days trying to figure it out because my phone wasn´t turning on and the red light was continuissly showin off, at the end it was because of a cheap wall charger (5V and 500ma, when SE uses 5v with 700ma) I just charged with SE wall charger and everything went back to normal.
In your case maybe one of you battery cells broke and that´s why it´s was at 90% giving you that hateful red light.
Here is a post conserning your problem:

i think the battery is low quality fake..
i found out that the fasted way to charge your empty battery is:
1. remove your battery
2. insert you mini usb charger (NOT usb>mini-usb from your computer)
3. watch if the red light is on. (underneath your power button)
4. insert your battery.
5. after 5/10 minutes your X1 is working again.
you can do it by just plugging your charger on when it's empty but then it can take up to 2 days (YES, i have experienced it) to make your X1 working again.
another way is, just plug the wall charger to your x1 then leave it there. the x1 do not wake up that quick because the charge voltage goes up grandually/slowly for protect your battery and phone after the battery voltage same as charge voltage, then it can be charge normally*
Thank god that I read this topic yesterday. Otherwise I would have pissed my trousers because I had the same light today.
HI friends, pleeeeease can anyone help me with my lovely X1.

Hi,
if i charge my Phone(rooted,s-off,elemetalX-Kernel with fast charging enabled)the red LED and a Battery without percentage is shown all the Time!
But if if the Accu is full(overnight-charging),the LED don't turn to green and when i disconnect the Cable,the red LED and the Battery don't disappear and the Phone won't start normal.
I must reboot the Phone by pushing the Power-Button about 10 sec.
Is this an issue of rooting,s-off or enable fast charging or a Software(Rom)Problem
Can anybody help?
Greatings
Hi all,
I have the charging problem with my Xperia T Skyfall phone.
I have read many posts on the net about users who have the same problem.
It ran completely out of battery and I can't turn it on anymore, at the moment I have it charging on the wall charger with the Power and Volume Up buttons pressed, the red light is on and after a few minutes it vibrates and turns to the green light, than the light goes off an it vibrates again and than the same thing again and after that the red light goes on again.. is this a good thing or should I do something else and if this is the proper way how long do I have to let it do this before it turns on or do something?
Hi guys my xsp has gone to sleep since 2 days ago. it had low battery percentage and it was in my bag. i just pick that and tried to turn it on. nothing happened. i thought it is out of charge and I plugged it in for many hours but i didn't see any signs of charging ( led or turning on. red led turns on after some minutes and turns off again) and when i removed the charger and tried to turn it on the red led blinked for 2 times for each power button pressing and no signs of turning on! i tried both yellow button in the back and volume up + power and also setting in charge for long hours. no changes! plz help
you can see video from this link https://files.fm/u/47qk6fxj
you can try jumpstarting your battery (requires a bit of disassembly), and if it still doesnt take a charge the battery protection IC (it should be part of the battery, it usually is) is bad, and you will need to replace battery.
good luck
