20-03-2015 15:57:46 Elapsed:19 secs.
but i havent opened the device and used metal with testpoint
because there is no successfull report on working on xperia sp in the forum
Is there any one sucessfully unbricked using test point method or any other method to unbrick
And im willing to donate for the solution

Hi,
First of all : There is no hard brick for Xperia SP. Either you have a soft brick or your phone has a hardware default.
Now there are two common cases of soft brick from which you can recover:
The first is some kind of early bootloop. It seems like the phone is off but your phone is bootlooping. This happens if you flash a non working kernel (and can probably also happen with a corrupt kernel).
To recover from this: plug your phone to pc, press volume up and without releasing it, press the reset button on the back. You should keep all the three (volume up, usb and reset) until you see the green led. This mean you are in flashmod and from then just follow the guides !
The second kind generally comes from the first one. It's an empty battery with non working software. It happens if for example you have a bootloop which drains your battery totally.
To recover from this: plug your phone to wall charger (not on computer) and wait for some hours (you will probably need at least 3. Maybe even 5-6 hours) and then try the solution for the first kind of brick.
I don't think I have seen any harder brick than these two and I believe hard brick cannot happen unless you mess with the bootloader (like editing it).
The problem could also be a hardware default. In this case, just send your phone for repair if you still have warranty or buy a new one.

thank you pec0ra for the reply
i can confirm that its not soft brick (bootloop , sony logo,display on) and there is no hardware defect , bootloader is unlocked and i havent played with bootloaders ,never relocked or other things
tried by connecting hard reset button + volume down +volume up to enter flashmode but no it isnt
what happenedd is i have flashed wrong ftf (charge level 50+ percentage) and falshtool succesfully flashed c5303 ftf and removed usb and tried to turn on but power isnt responding phone doesnt turned on and back hardreset button also failed to reboot the phone , when i coonected with pc it tried to install qualcomm drivers (qhsusb_dload)
i dont know what will happen after flashing wrong ftf technically
can you say about that little more that would be helpfull
thank you

I'm not sure about this, but I think flashing a c5305 firmware on a c5302 shouldn't brick your phone but only your wireless connectivity.
The bootloop I talked about is a bootloop that happens before the sony logo displays. Booting android happens approximately so :
Reset signal sent to cpu
Load kernel (I'm not sure but this should be done by some hardware procedures and the bootloader) and initialize devices
Load ramdisk and display splash logo (sony)
Launch android and display boot animation
If you have a bootloop at 4 (after the boot animation has appeared), it means your kernel is working but your rom has a problem (for example it is not compatible with the kernel)
If you have a bootloop at 3 (after the splash logo has appeared), it means you have a problem in the ramdisk
If your CPU is totally broken, you might never arrive at 2
Now the interesting part is if your kernel is broken (for example not compatible with your hardware or there is an error in the code or the binaries are corrupted). If an error happens in the kernel, an interrupt signal will be sent to your CPU and you will start again at 1. This will lead in a loop in 1 and 2. Your screen will stay off but your CPU will run at max speed doing the early initialization again and again. This often drains the battery before you find it out.
This kind of hidden bootloop only happened to me when I modified a kernel and made some errors, but I can easily imagine that this can also happen with something going wrong in firmware flashing or corrupted firmware.
I have seen this kind of problem a few times, mainly on my phone, but I've also seen other users report similar problem. My guess is your phone only has this problem and I recommend you to let it charge a few hours and then try to connect it in flashmod.
If the problem isn't the one I mentioned (and this is of course possible), then I can unfortunately not help you further and you should wait for others to reply.
Good luck !

Did you select s1 Emergency mode? Do you have s1boot version wich support SP? Which driver did you use? You have to use Gordons Gate drivers.

pec0ra after charging my phone for 6 hours (leds off all time) and connected to the pc red led glows in device and windows started searching for drivers and device named as unrecognized and after some time device disconnected from pc
and i treid to boot in flashmode volume down + power , power +volumedown+hard reset button but the led is red and turns off after 3 or 4 sec
i cant boot to flashmode or fastboot ,
2 : kernel is broken or not there to load or wrong kernel , and what might be the cause for not booting up in flashmode or fastboot is that kernel problem.

Flashmode is independent from the kernel.
The right combo is volume up + hard reset. Keep them at least 10-15 seconds while connected to usb.

I'd say the red blink is a good sign but unfortunately I have no further knowledge to help you. If I find the time I'll make some tests.
In the mean time, you should try your computer with another phone to see if usb works and/or try with another computer.

Do you have any LED light? Below example from my hardbricked Xperia S.
When I've connected Xperia S to computer, red light show up. After a little while LED turn off, and device is recognized as qhsusb_dload (SEMC Flash Device, Zeus flash device, or which driver I have installed or I havent.) No matter. The thing is, that my phone is recognize after RED led turn off. Dont know how about SP, but I suppose that can be similar.
In the end. Launch s1boot, select sin_file_set wich you have to flash (theres a Thread with proper file to recover boot) click on Testpoint Ready and connect the phone to usb. I suppose not, but can work without disassembling device and attaching testpoint. You have to try.

Hi, I have tried to use flashtools and I've got all the necessary drivers (I think) but once I put hold power button and vol+ (3 vibrations), then press vol-, connect to pc via USB and I get a temporary green led, which goes after about 5 seconds, and then my phone disconnects from my computer again and i get a constant red led while the Sony logo appears. I really need my phone to work Could someone out there please help with this! I would really appreciate if someone responded very soon as I would like to get this sorted as soon as possible. Flashtools gives me these messages:
22/012/2013 23:12:07 - INFO - Device disconnected
22/029/2013 23:29:07 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode
22/029/2013 23:29:18 - INFO - Device disconnected
Also one more thing I'd like to add.. Once I go into that BLU thing, it keeps on asking me what device I have, so I select Xperia T and then it gives the following messages:
22/052/2013 22:52:26 - INFO - Your phone bootloader cannot be officially unlocked
22/052/2013 22:52:26 - INFO - You can now unplug and restart your phone
Might this have something to do with it? Any suggestions would be grateful! I've been at this for hours now and need to get this sorted
Thanks to any kind person who helps fix this!
1) Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and goto software info/configuaration. If it says bootloader unlocked allowed: no, then you CANNOT unlock it via ANY means
2) If it says yes (I doubt it, because flashtool has already checked this) then you can.
3) Flashmode has nothing to do with bootloader. Press volume up to get into fastboot (Blue LED) for working with bootloader, press volume down (Green LED) to work in flashmode, which is for flashing FTF's.
4) If you are trying to flash a FTF, then do not connect the phone until it asks
5)Make sure you have gone to C:\flashtool\drivers and run drivers.exe. Ensure you choose fastboot, flashmode and TX drivers.
6) Make sure you are on the latest version of flashtool 0.9.13.1
Can I ask what you are actually trying to do?
Also flashmode and fastboot and adb dont work on windows 8(.1)

Its not even booting, past the Sony logo so i cannot do anything (i can't do step 1 as you've asked). Its literally a bootloop. Can you give me step-by-step instructions to get out of this bootloop? I tried to install custom ROM but it died on me, and now its on the bootloop, which i can't get passed.

Oh okay. I'm using windows 8.1, so what would I do to fix the issue?
I have given my phone to the manufacturers to try and sort out but I have a feeling they will refuse to fix it, so any help would be appreciated. If i use a windows 7 machine, would it work? If so, how do I fix it such that it exits bootloop and allows me to access my phone. I don't mind losing all my data (although i think its lost anyway lol)
P.S. thanks for the reply.

I'm sure your batt is dead. Try the rubber band method. Give it like 2/3 rounds of it on the power button and hold it and plug in charger. it should charge with red led on. Pull battery and try again if it does not charge. Give it some charging and it should be able to enter flashmode to flash stock.

I don't think the battery is dead, as the led would just blink and wouldn't even show me the Sony logo.. Everytime i use the phone with the charger it goes into the bootloop, looping around the Sony logo and then switching off again, then the sony logo will show again, etc. I've sent it off to Sony manufaturers. Would they fix it (even if the manufacturers warranty is void)? Like, even if they charge a little (hopefully not stupid amounts of money lol)? If not, i'm going to try and use flashtool on windows 7 machine and hope that it works, as I've heard flashmode and fastboot and adb do not work on windows 8(.1), which is what im currently using :crying:

Yes (or, at least its definitely one of the reasons). Use Win 8 or Win 7 or Win XP.
If after that point you still have trouble with it sticking to flashmode: I also had trouble flashing via flashmode with one of my USB ports. I like to use the front ones on my PC but they don't work for every device. There is also a USB cable that I have that does not work for flashmode. Consider these 2 things

It's just a soft brick. What did you wanted to flash? Just flash a stock .ftf file with flashtool, or a kernel with recovery.

Well, first of all I want the phone to start up normally again so that I can use it.
What I did achieve up till now is that I can get it connected to flashtool in Fastboot mode.
I guess this gives me the opportunity to flash a boot.img first so that I can install 4.4 or 4.3 later.
But first things first.
Do you think flashing a boot.img could restore the phone in a state that it functions as a normal phone again?

My xperia t has gone in for repair. Before considering this though, could you try one thing to see if it'll help restore phone? Go to your PC companion (and no, its not a standard recovery which i'm going to suggest so keep reading!). Once you have done this, click on "Support zone". Click "Start" on the "Phone/tablet software update" option. Note, you do not need to plug in your device yet!. You should get an error message coming up saying device not connected. And once you get this, there should be a message asking you whether you are having "severe problems with your phone/tablet". There's a "repair my phone/tablet" hyperlink. I want you to click that and NOT the connect button. Once you have clicked that, please follow the on screen instructions. Tell me if this works for you I hope it does!

Why?
Because SONY decided that I have made changes to my phone and SONY now refuses to repair my device.

Ah that sucks! Are you not on windows 8? I've heard that windows 8 and flashtools don't get along, but if you're saying you've got your device into fastboot you should be able to flash it using flashtools!
Sony Xperia T LT30p dead resolved
OK, here it is for those interested on how to revive a dead Xperia device.
Yesterday my phone stalled at the SONY logo.
Nothing could be done anymore.
My phone has returned into normal state thanks to SonyXperiakiasT :good:
Follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315572
Howto get into a state that one can flash the phone.
- download: LT30P_9.1.A.1.141_PL.ftf (the original firmware)
- install and activate flashtool-0.9.13.0-windows.exe
- at the SONY logo push on/off, vol-up and vol-down together
- when the phone vibrates an the logo disappears release all buttons and immediately after push on/off and vol-up button
- when phone vibrates release on/off button, keep pushing vol-up button and plug in USB cable from computer
- you will be in a state with a blue light at the top left of your phone.
- however you want to get in a state with a green led
- push vol-down and on/off
- unplug the USB
- wait for the phone to vibrate
- release the on/off button and plug in the USB
- Follow the instructions in the thread mentioned above and your phone will be revived.
All the pushing, releasing, plugging and unplugging is a quite delicate affair.
I tried it during several hours before I got a bit of grip on it and still I am not shure how I got into the green led state.
Try it, be patient and be shure that repair is within reach as soon as you have a green LED on your phone.
Good luck!

Hey so I ran into this same problem! my phone wouldn't do anything except boot up to the Sony screen, no lights no charging nothing
I figured it out, at least for me
>Have your flash ready to go via Flashtool
>Have your phone plugged into your computer via USB
>Hold the volume down button and then while holding it turn it on
you should have your green light and may have to hold the volume button the whole time until its done flashing.
Hope this works
FIX!
Hey the same thing happened to my xp T few days ago. My phone was rooted with UB. I was stuck on SONY LOGO too n my phone was rebooting from there repeatedly but I was managed to get into cwm n I installeddifferent kernels + Rome but it was no good. Like u said in your OP I couldn't get into flashmood too. When I select the firmware flashtools say preparing files then the phone reboots! Then flashtools say device disconnected!! The solution for this is when flashtools says device disconnected pull the usb cable n press vol up with power button n turn off phone. Then once turned off straight away press vol down n plug in usb cable n flashtools will start flashing. The important thing here is not to close the window that pops up when flashtool say device disconnected in red. Hope this helps, same prob worked for me so should work for you! Peace
Well I explain you my problem.
Since I installed last saturday the last 4.3 ROM thanks to Doomlord, I noticed my phone doesn´t charge while in power off, it just doesn´t respond to the cable charger, I tried with several cables, wall chargers, via PC,... with no result, also looking for a solution I also noticed it doesn´t also respond to comands with volume buttons so it can not boot to flashmode and fastboot using the normal way.
booting to flashmode or Flashmode is not an issue as I found a way of doing it actually a couple of them, I will explain them just in case somebody is in a similar problem than me...
Via software Using flashtool (flash/fastboot) the aplication can force the phone to boot in fastboot via adb, using PCcompanion, (flash/repair) when it checks the phone after downlodaing the firmware it forces the phone to reboot in flashmode (in my case it doesn´t it just powers off and gets stucked but just pressing the power button it does, once booted in flashmode you can open flashtool and flash the desired ROM)
Via Hardware As I said it doesn´t respond when I plug in the cable but with the cable connected to the computer and pressing volume UP/down and power until it vibrates it will boot to flashmode or fastboot.
Now lets go back to my main problem...
I have being doing several things in order to solve it with no luck...
1º flash .278 kernel with recovery thanks to sj8023ld
2º Downgrade to .145 Xperiment custom ROM
3º Downgrade to .141 oficial using flashtool (result bootloader allowed: no" when it was unlocked before)
4º Flash again .141 with flashtool (bootloader again unlocked)
5º relock bootloader and flash with PCcompanion (flash/repair)
6ºFlash .145 oficial using Flashtool
7º Unlock bootloader, Root (easyrooting toolkit Doomlord) and CWM V9 by davidmarco.
Now I am again in 4.3 leaked with root and .278 kernel
After doing all this I couldn´t find a solution, Do you know guys if I can do anything else?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance

No, sorry, when powered on it is recognized as normal and on power off it is not detected at all
I have problems in my stock fw with charging while powered off. Does not at all, quite the inconvenience. However if you hold the power button my charge light comes on until my phone has enough juice to power up (well it doesn't have enough juice ever, but I quickly put into airplane mode till it charges a but more...)

Though I hold vol.+ and power ,device vibrated ,but nothing happen.
Dont press power button for fastboot mode just do power of if its vibrate 3 times than your phone is off OK? Next step is connect ur USB cable to PC than press only the vol up button !!!!!! not the power button!!!!!! and then connect ur phone with the USB cable so then just make fastboot flash bootimage Form a Rom of your choice vor stock firmware

Have you tried the hard reset button?
Under the flap next to where the sim goes, is a tiny hole. You need a pin to press and reset.
Edit: Do you have ADB installed? Have you installed the Sony drivers. on your PC?
You also need to run the exe in the Drivers folder within Flashtool, to make sure you have correct flashomde drivers available. Installing these drivers is very difficult in Windows 10 and it require restarting the machine in safe mode, and going into the advanced settings to disable driver signature checking, this how to video is for windows 8, but you'll get the idea
All of those need to be in place before flashtool will work.
Does it go into flashmode? Make sure it's turned off, start flashtool on your pc, then hold the volume down while plugging in the usb cable. If flashtool recognises it then you can follow bilboa1's great guide. You will probably have to start from scratch, old firmware, root exploit, recovery etc etc.

Exactly the same happened to me this morning. I had not time so I left it and came back at midday. After trying to reset it many times it finally turned on (maybe 15 min trying), but the USB port completely died... Then I notices son humidity in the two cameras crystals. The phone was working great, I even play asphalt 8 for 20 min and nothing wrong happened. I've just sent it to repair. Tech guy told my that maybe the motherboard is compromised.
The only thing I can surely tell you is keep trying, it worked for me.
My phone unsuddenly bricked after I reboot my phone.Can't even boot into recovery cause Sony logo appear for a second and turned off.My phone even don't charge.I tried to flash stock rom via flashtool but phone not detected or after pressing vol down button nothing happened.I also tryed to use fastboot mode to flash boot.img but nothing happened though My phone can turn into fastboot mode.What should I do now?Senior XDA members please help.:crying:
Edit:how can i fix adb "device not found" issue?I installed all the necessary drivers but still not solved. Can't flash stock rom because vol down button not working but the button is fine.
Edit2:How can I fix adb driver issue that not recognizing my phone?
Problem solved!

I don't think so because this happened to me long ago when I tried to unlock bootloader.But I did something to the driver to work adb properly and it worked.And now I forgot that method and couldn't find in google also.So I'm really in big trouble.I just don't know why when I want to flash the stock rom and flashtool show in popup to power off the phone and press vol down button and connect to computer using usb cable but vol button don't work or not give any signal to computer.So I can't flash the rom.
Go to sony official site and download drivers.. ZR drivers dont exist but you can use drivers for Z, install those on your computer and use the fastboot method again and you should be fine.. Your phone is only soft bricked.. Hard brick is when there are absolutely no life in the phone at all.. Use a boot.img you know will work and no need to flash stock ROM once you're in recovery.. Unless you want to of course.. Custom ROM will boot your phone just fine
Also take your battery out and re-insert to make sure your phone is properly off.. Flashtool should also work after that

ZR driver exist in Sony developer website and I installed the driver but I don't know why my computer not recognizing my phone.My phone can turn into fastboot mode(blue light on when pressing vol up and connecting cable to pc) but when I type command "adb devices" the listed device is empty I mean no adb fastboot device found.I'm just asking the drivers are not working beacuse of windos 10?Actually when after I use custom rom I couldn't connect my phone to pc.So any driver can fix this problem?I searched really hard on google but couldn't find any proper sloutions.

Windows 10 is a pain to install drivers into.. But use fastboot in flashtool instead of flasmode.. Should recognize your phone and flash the boot image from there

I know you are trying to help me but I tried everything and nothing is working.I installed driver from flashtool but still no clue why pc not recognizing my phone.My phone is like a live junk.My phone soft bricked many times and I could recover my phone with flashtool so I know what to do but this problem is way more confusing.I just need to know what is causing this issue.
You've managed to install the drivers inc the lagan drivers in flashtool and connected your phone in fastboot mode with flashtool running and flashtool still don't recognize your phone? I've done that loads of times even with no drivers installed and flashtool has been able to recognize the device in fastboot.. If that's the case, then I'm sorry I'm not able to help any further as flashtool has always been my failsafe when things have gone wrong.. Adb and fastboot are usually no help for me in Windows 10..

My problem was created because local charger damaged my phone battery.So I couldn't turn on my device like yours.I replaced the battery and charger from Sony Center and now my phone is good as new.So Try to use other good battery(small or similer size that suites to your phone's battery pin)and see if your phone turns on without any issue.Then you can target the problem.

Hello there... Any solution you found? I am stuck with my zuk z2 in same situation ?? any help ?
I have a similar problem.
What caused the black screen? -
History:
I booted to test mode at 2.5.033 ST, the phone got stucked at this menue there was no way to get out. TWRP Restore to Nandroid bougt only black screen after 2nd vibration and ZUK logo.
I fixed the Test mode bug, by flashing the ZUI 1.9.104 ST Stock ROM via QPST.
After the phone was "repaired" I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, made a nandroid backup of fully stock ROM and restored a nandroid backup from before the test mode problem.
The nandroid restore was successful, I rebooted the phone and it was "dead". Black screen, only rebooting (perioldy vibrating) there was no end, until the battery was empty.
I got no luck to reach any mode with tricky button pressing (vol+ pwr; vol- pwr; vol+ vol- pwr; usb in vol-) nor Windows detecting the phone. That's why I decided to remove the back glass cover, to got access to the battery.
Now I'm able to get the phone detected by my PC.
What I did: disconnect the battery, connect the phone to my computer, pressed the vol- button and connect the battery.
This made my PC able to detect the phone, but no I have an other problem. Windows only detects the phone as "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)". I don't know any way to install the driver....
Maybe anyone is able to help me or has any tip?
Thanks!
Cheers,

Maybe with editing quallcom drivers for your device id, you can still install it.
and if luck qpst can recognize it as qualcomm debug mod

Hi,
Thanks for your quick response.

"Error Message": This device has been stopped because it has reported errors. (Code 43)
An error occurred while requesting the USB device descriptor.

I have a similar problem.
What caused the black screen? -
History:
I booted to test mode at 2.5.033 ST, the phone got stucked at this menue there was no way to get out. TWRP Restore to Nandroid bougt only black screen after 2nd vibration and ZUK logo.
I fixed the Test mode bug, by flashing the ZUI 1.9.104 ST Stock ROM via QPST.
After the phone was "repaired" I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, made a nandroid backup of fully stock ROM and restored a nandroid backup from before the test mode problem.
The nandroid restore was successful, I rebooted the phone and it was "dead". Black screen, only rebooting (perioldy vibrating) there was no end, until the battery was empty.
I got no luck to reach any mode with tricky button pressing (vol+ pwr; vol- pwr; vol+ vol- pwr; usb in vol-) nor Windows detecting the phone. That's why I decided to remove the back glass cover, to got access to the battery.
Now I'm able to get the phone detected by my PC.
What I did: disconnect the battery, connect the phone to my computer, pressed the vol- button and connect the battery.
This made my PC able to detect the phone, but no I have an other problem. Windows only detects the phone as "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)". I don't know any way to install the driver....
Maybe anyone is able to help me or has any tip?
Thanks!
Cheers,
m_atze

Alright bro, there is one method you can try.
http://zukfans.eu/community/threads/howto-flash-a-stock-zui-rom-zuk-z2-pro-z2121-only.57/
I assume your phone is a brick now. The only method you can use is the 9008 unbrick mode. (AKA QBST)
There are a few things you need to prepare before you save ur phone. U need to download the require application that the website provided above, after you set everything up,
make sure you download the latest 2.5 QBST rom,
http://bbs.lenovomobile.cn/z2pro/t554654/
Because ur phone wont be able to enter 9008 through software, thus u need to do the following.
1. Load the content XML fille,
2.Turn off your phone. After it's fully shutdown
3. press and hold the volume up button for 3 seconds
4. press power button while hold the volume up (press it for 0.5second and keep holding it)
5. after 0.5 seconds, plug in the usb right away
6. the QFIL tool should appear the Qualcomm usb QD loader
7. the download button should turn blue
8. flash it and wait for reboot

I followed your described procedure, but the phone will not be recocnized by the PC.
1st: I loaded QFIL XML file. (By the way this tut is made by me)
2nd: I disconnected the battery (The phone can't be turned off normally!)
3rd, 4th, 5th
6th: nothing happend!
7th: "-"
8th: "-"
The only way the phone will detected by the PC:
1st: disconnect battery
2nd: plug in USB (PC and Phone)
3rd: press VOL+ or VOL- or PWR button (doesn't matter which one)
4th: connect battery
5th: detected as "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)"

Yes, I did exactly you described. Sorry but this isn't working.
I don't know what I should do. Even a repair shop couldn't fix it.
Maybe I need to do this:

But I don't want to destroy my PC (3000 bugs)

I will report the result.
OK. I made the deepflash cable.
After using it there is no difference between pressing one of the button combinations I recently mentioned (VOL+ or VOL- or PWR).
The phone will be detected as Unknown device. After intalling my modified driver to match the unknown ID, QFIL don't detect the COM Port.
Hello had the same problem, only with the difference that my battery was not completely discharged.
What has helped:
1 Start QFIL Tool
2 Press the volume +
3 Connect the original cable to the PC
4 QFIL Tool recognized the phone and I could play an original Rome.

Ps. Is now the battery cover (glass) broken?
No, I used a hairdryer, a razorblade, plastic tool and a suction cup to lift the backcover glass.
The glass is fully intact no damages.
You have good nerves. I would not have expected that.
But in the end, it does not matter if it does not start anymore.
Thank you again for your great instructions for playing and rooting the mobile phone.
I hope you get your phone back.
Mfg
Good and bad news
The guy unbricked the phone successfully, I received it today.
Now I have an other problem:
The phone is very very slow and laggy now.
The problem occurs everywere, Recovery, boot (the bootlogo laggs), booted System, also the test mode laggs now
Furthermore the sceen flickers sometimes and at the right side the sceen is mirrored sometimes.
Did anyone has an idea?
What I did today:
reflash through qfil
1.9.104_ST
2.3.044_ST
ZUI_2.5.335_ST
Hi m_atze, I am exactly in the same situation as You. After using deep flash cable method, I got "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)". Could You tell me what was the solution to unbrick the phone?
