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?
T.I.A.
so I flashed the wrong FTF and the device won't turned on. Pressing power + either volume up or down gives me white LED.
Can someone please help getting my device back in working condition? thanks
edit: tried flashmode and it's getting detected but gets undetected soon after. and then red led on the device

If you can go into flash mode, then you can flash back stock firmware using flashtool..usually in flash mode it allow you to flash first but will detach it self if the device cannot open for r/w operation, then you just have to shut off your phone and start over..the red led maybe is indicating your phone does not have enough power, just charge it first till it turn yellow or green, just then begin the flash mode...
I'll it for 4 hours and see what happens next. Thanks!
I got the device back. thank you very very much!
here's what happened. i was running cm10.2 before. i was trying to clear some files thru cwm. i rebooted the phone then after that it won't power on. i already charged it overnight but it still won't power on. i already try pressing all button combinations but nothing. i also tried to flash a fresh ftf file but it isn't detecting my phone. when i charge it the red led light would stay on for maybe 5 minutes. and then it'll be off for also around 5 minutes then it will turn on again. also when i hold the power button the red led light blinks twice. i hope someone can help me with this..
I have the same problem with my xperia T, i rebooted it from cwm(philz touch recovery) and now it doesn't work.
(bootloader is unlocked and im on stock JB 4.3).
Bro this helped me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170 maybe it will help you too.
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.
