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!!

I finally 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.
hey guys! thanks alot its working... Im really apreciate your help,, see here Im still newbie

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?

Hello fellow Xperia Users,
I rooted my Xperia Z as per the doomlord's method. The phone successfully rooted and it was working all fine. Then I downloaded this app called "MyFont" to change system font and after applying the font one has to reboot the phone.
Since then the phone is stuck in sony logo. I cant get into recovery or even fastboot mode. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Read some of the stickies. The phone would have been fixed by the time someone replied (me).
Just hard power off your phone by pressing power+volume off together until the phone vibrates 3 times.
Then follow the normal flashing procedures.
Del.

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
So I have usual problem with my Sony Xperia Z1 C6903 it turned of with 70%> battery. So I flashed new rom from xda thread, in order to flash it I instaled costum recovery from one site (my bootloader cant be unlocked).
So my phone turned off and I did probably mistake by entering recovery with low battery and deleting data,dalvik and cache. I tried powering phone up by holding power button + volume up and clicking red button next to sim card slot. When I plug phone in wall charger or computer led doesnt glow red or screen dont turn on. What have I done ?!?!? Can you help me please?
So I left my phone on the charger whole night, when I woke up it was stuck on Sony logo. I have android 4.4.4 on my computer downloaded so I flashed it via flashtool. Problem solved.
