My Sony Xperia Z suddenly stopped working today. I connected it to the charger yesterday, and when I tried to turn it on today it won't respond. I tried to do the reset by holding power up and the power button, but with no result. The red LED is constantly on.
Is there anything I can do?
Service
explain more about it
just turn off and charging then not turn on !
didn u root it
or install bad app or configure setting wrongly?
I'm having the weirdest problem.
My Xperia Z wont boot up, it will only boot when i have USB in my PC and connected to the Xperia Z.
When I disconnect the USB the phone shuts down in about 3-15 seconds.
I tried to reflash the stock tft via Flashtool.
I tried to reflash via SUS
I tried to reflash/repair via PC Companion.
At the moment stock firmware is installed but the problem is still there.
I tried to Google but I cant find anyone with the same problem.
Please help!
What's your battery like because to me is sound like a battery problem, USB is supplying power and a soon as you remove power it dies,
Boot phone up and do a service test on battery *#*#service#*#*
A maybe completely wrong
P. S. Have you had your phone near water what colour is the paper under your tabs (should be white not pink)

I have the exact same problem! have you found a solution yet? i'm thinking it's a hardware problem because of the fact that i have had this problem on different ROMs and even when i flashed it back to original firmware using sony's flastool.
The battery test under *#*#service#*#* says there's nothing wrong with it...
It's getting really frustrating actually... Phone is practically unuseable...
i think your phone does not turns off, im having the exact same problem, try put the screen to sleep every 30 minutes, if it last 30 minutes with the screen on, then your phone is having the same problem i have:
something like the volume up button "always pressed" so the power button doesnt react because its like detecting hard reset combination.
if the screen sleeps, you press the power button it does not come up, if you connect the usb, screen comes up. phone is not off.
if its like that, im glad i helped at least identify the problem (if you find a solution other than sending to sony (they'll charge me because my warranty is void) PLEASE TELL ME
EDIT: I FIXED IT!!

Hello, sorry if this question had been posted before. I just confusing with my Xperia Z1. It's just blank screen, no Sony logo, no boot animation, etc.
I've tried to hold power+vol up but nothing happen. When i put the charge on and i press the power+vol up, it vibrate three times and nothing happen.
What should i do with this?? I hope it's not hardware failure.
Thx for the answer and suggestion.
did you flash anything prior to it going like that?

When you hear the three times vibration then you shutting down your phone and after that the phone is turned off completely, then leave it under wall charger via USB or Dock for minimum 4 hours, if it do not turn on then you have to flash a new Firmware OR Repair via PC Companion. Download Official Sony PC Companion and repair your phone. Other way is to use Flashtool and download the latest FTF from Mega Collection and flash it. Then it should turn on.
hi
i have the same problem with my z1 xperia
the pc companion wont see my phone to preform any kind of repair
any ideas
thanks
if nothing is happening just the LED red blinks even when you put the device in the charge, its hard bricked and will be fixed just with opening the phone and relive it with test point ...
maybe this thread will help you:

If it's brick, no prob, let's begin
Requirements:
The latest Flash Tools version, the latest FTF file of your phone, or any FTF file you want
Plug your phone to AC charger for about one or two minutes, and if you see red LED, now your phone is OK
1) If your phone has more than 50 percent charges, you can unplug it
2) If it has less 50 percent, let it charge for about an hour or more till it reaches 70 percent
So, no matter the first way or second, after you unplug it, now you can now connect your phone via USB and flash it
If you do everything correctly and if nothing goes wrong, after flashing, you can use your phone without any problem
If you couldn't do it, inform me to help you more
Look at the micro sd slot. Is there a red stripe? Or white?
If red, it's a water damage

It happened exactly the same with mine. I was on stock rom, and went to the swimming pool with it. But the stripe is white.
I cannot turn it on and only get the red light blinking when is plugged into the charger...
Help...

Try the hard brick fix (if you have warranty send to Sony instead). I doubt it'll do anything because it seems by your decription the hardware is damaged physically, but its worth a shot.

Drain your battery completely
By Pressing and holding volume up and power button for 15 second, no vibration dont worry just hold it for 15 seconds and forget your phone for 1-2 days
Get working charger and usb cable check it then connect charger to phone there should be red light
Leave your phone for 3-4 hours
Now disconnect your phone from charger
Again check usb cable and drivers in pc
Open flashtool and get stock ftf ready for flashing
Once the dialog box appears with phone's animation
press and hold just volume down button and connect your phone with pc and immediately Release volume down button as soon as dialogue box disappears
Then disconnect phone when instructed in flashtool and wait for 4-5 minutes
Now try to turn on the phone.
Main thing is to have patience
This should work as i have my phone in same hardbricked state twice and this brought life in my phone back..!
This fixed mine

I hope, your solution works for me too. I ordered a battery and waiting for delivering it. If it won't work, I'll write here to help someone like us who wants to order a new battery.
Edit:
After battery changing, the phone worked. I don't know why, but it had been locked and rebooted repeatedly. Then I resetted to the factory settings. After that, it has been started to run well.
hey im new here so please be nice with me
