After updating, the phone shuts off whenever I try to transfer files through SE companion (or manually with windows explorer) What could cause this? I have rooted it with superoneclick, but the problem started before I did that. Also, pressing the camera button no longer starts the camera app...
Have u triee reflashing with companion or seus?

Reflash = repair?
No, I haven't. It sucks to redo all my settings and apps and stuff
Try pressing and holding the camera button a little longer. It seems to be quite a bit slower than before, possibly to prevent starting the camera accidentally.

Exactly, that's the mistery.
It takes me a while to understand that
Same problem for me with UK phone - it restarts some time after connecting it to windows computer with usb cable and trying to copy some pictures from SD card.

so i was trying to put music on to my new HD2. ive had it about a good week and a half. the music never showed up on my device using windows media player sync then then Windows mobile Device center wouldnt recognize my phone.. then i tried to reset my phone and then thats when it happened. i cant get into my phone now.. i tried the whole battery out many many times... but no matter what i do it wont show my home screen. the phone boots up i guess.. it shows the tmobile screen...then the windows screen... but when the home screen is supposed to come up it doesnt.. just the wall paper.... and no buttons n screen touching work... i was able to get into the start menu for a bit but now..... nothing. im about to get my hammer and relieve some stress this phone is causing me... someone please help me out.
try a hard reset my friend, turn the phone off, hold both volume buttons down and the press the power button, its tricky to et first time, but it does work, follow the instructions and youre phone will be back to when you first bought it, bad point is u will loose anything you dont have backed up
but all files saved on storage card will be there after the hardreset.

It doesnt like being synced with windows media player.......
If you havent already hard reset then theres is a fix for you near the end of this thread
Next time your putting your music to your phone, drag n drop is the way to go........
alright guys i think i may be screwed here.
teh phone i got is the HD2 runing widnows mobile "5.2.21869"
now the problems i have is that most of the apps i go in to, teh screen orientation is stuck on landscape and there is nothign i can do to get it back. shaking violently dosen't work for all teh rage fixers out there.
i tryed re-calibrating the G-sensor with no luck. then for a laugh i calibrated it so that the phone though flat was at some obscure angle, then reset to flat, alro with no luck.
i have done the foctory reset located within the operting system with no change, and i have done the manufacture's reset as well (the one where you hold down teh volume buttons and tap the power button).
now i have the firmware update that will most likely fix this but there is a problem (which is where i think im screwed). whenever i plug the phone into my pc, or any other, it simply charges adn will not recognise that i have connected it to a computer. (i have dissabled charging whenever connected to a PC).
so do you have any suggestions guys or am i as screwed as i think i am.

After you plug the phone into a usb port on the pc, does a screen pop up on the phone letting u choose from either : charge only, disk drive, or the one u need for update "sync"
If not you might have to download a new windows rom from the hd2 rom section and put it on the sd card
checkout this newbie section on how to
just verify in the settings under phone how what is your rom size
for 512 MB ROM use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
for 1024MB ROM use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
There are instructions there on how to do this without using the usb cable, Just flash thru the SD CARD
Good Luck
I was updating my x10 and it fell and unplugged. now it doesnt turn on when i hold the power button it turns on but only for like 5 seconds, and 3 of them is being shown the sign: yellow triangle with ! inside and little phone under it same happens if i connect it to computer. It detects the phone but only for 5 seconds, and 6th second it detects the phone again. but only for 5 seconds... did i totally screwed up? do i have now only a 400€ brick? please help!
Run seus again.
Try charging it first. Or use SE update service rather than pc companion.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
maybe a battery boot?? take out battery plug usb in run seus then put battery back in let it find it.
cant run seus because computer doest recognize it for long enough. also already tried charging and nothing
i dont know your setup did you have xrecovery, if so boot up on sony ericsson screen tap the left arrow button the back button repeatedly, if you have it and backed it up it should allow you to recover.
here is the problem...i didnt make any backup :S
**** happens damn :O
Hello. Ive got to fix some problems on this phone (Neo V). There is no root, original ROM. there is still valid warranty, but I'd like to fix it myself.
1. SAFE MODE. There is always a "safe mode" notification on the screen left bottom corner. I was wondering what this feature does, I havent faced this before on other phones. Also I'd like to turn it off because it is very annoying, but havent find out how to that, because I've tried some methods but for nothing.
2. UPDATE. I cant update the software, it is GB. Tried with SEUS and Sony PC companion, but when i need to turn off phone and than connect it to PC while holding BACK key, nothing happens in those softwares. Well, the indicator becomes blue, and there is sound on pc like something has been connected to USB, but no uptade happens.
3. MENU KEY. It is not working, and the light between the HOME and MENU key is off. Is something due to the SAFE MODE? Or probably just hardware problem?
I would like to get some help or advices, I've searched for solutions by myself, but I hope there is someone who could help me.
bump
It happend in my phone too.. Bt that showd when I tried to go fast boot to recovery .. Rebooting helpd me to get rid of fast mode

I've done factory reset few times, it didnt help.
If it's doing it after a reset it's likely a hardware issue
Safe mode is there to boot with system apps only, if you have a problem app, it's accessed by holding volume down whilst booting, all android phones have it.
Try this first.
Back up your sdcard and anything else you don't want to lose, format the sd then
Turn the phone off remove battery for five minutes.
With no phone connected select a software repair on pc companion, insert battery do not turn on hold down only the back button and connect usb when pc companion tells you, if it persists after the repair then it's definitely hardware

maybe it is hardware problem. when I just put the battery, the gap between back and menu key starts light. I guess, it shouldnt be that way?
Neither the update nor repair cant be executed.
I was using my tablet while finishing charging. I was about 95%. Suddenly it just went black and won't turn back on. Any ideas? I've tried holding the power button with no results. Is there a special reset or something?
Anyone else have this issue or things I can try to fix it?

Have you tried PC Companion? Download it for Windows then try to locate for emergency repair. It will show you instructions of how to put your tablet in flash mode.

I haven't tried that specifically, but would it not fail if the light didn't even go on when plugged in, and my pc doesn't even read it as connected?

Not really, for example in some samsung devices even if the device wont turn on the a JIG plug was able to put the phone on download mode, something very similar to flash mode on the xperia mobiles.
So i guess the last thing you can try is to put the tablet in flash mode, you can download a FTF file with the firmware compatible with your device, and download flashtool from: Click here to download and then put your tablet on flash mode. I guess you will need first the drivers Click here to see drivers and after you install the drivers, just open flash tool press the vol down key and connect the usb cable to the tablet, and if you see that flashtool or maybe windows recognizes your tablet you may have luck to restore it.
So if you get it into flash mode, then just flash the FTF and let's see what happens.
Let me know.
I will give it a test this evening or tomorrow - thanks! I will post back if it works.
PC Companion doesn't detect the tablet, nor does my PC at all in device manager. It doesn't respond like anything is plugged in, but it did before.
Flashtool comes up with nothing either - once again doesn't even acknowledge anything is plugged in.
Thanks for the suggestions, though.

I read your issue. Read my first post again - yours is simply a crash. Mine does not charge, has no power LED, and is completely unresponsive. No recovery button combination or anything works - yours turns on and responds to things.
so when you try vol up and power button do you not see the white led flash once then a couple seconds later three times? if it does it means your tablet can still be put into flash mode with some perseverance.
Edit: you could try sony mobiles flash tool called Emma which has its own way of entering flash mode (think you hold vol down and plug the usb cable in the computer) and see if that program can detect your tablet but you can use the instructions provided on their website if your unsure what to do.
same sitation
I have the same problem with my tablet. I watched stock photos in album and then display switched off. And that's the end.
Nothing happens when I try to power on, reboot or restore with Companion. Computer doesn' detect device. The same situation with Emma and flashtool.
I used my new-bought tablet only for 15 minutes)))
Mine ended up needing replacing due to a fried mainboard. Did you leave yours plugged in overnight?
Ok something strange happen to the tab I never had problem before I left the headphone plugged in a press the power button to close the screen (I always do that) when I try to use the tab there was nothing on screen double tab the screen nothing, hold the power button nothing put the tab in the cradle nothing the led was not turning on but the usb cable direct to the pc and than the charger nothing. I press the volume up and power button the tab led blink and was able to restart the tab. ??????????
Same thing just happened to me. Power button would not turn on the Z. LED would not turn on when charged. Did a hard reset and it came back on. Model: SGP312.

Pc companion will not work in thta situation cause it needs the device to be powered on...
In that case have you try the SUS http:/sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/
Just follow the instructions and you will be fine
It will erase the entire internal memory though, sd is fine..
