phone unplugged while updating - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

maybe a battery boot?? take out battery plug usb in run seus then put battery back in let it find it.

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.

[Solved] X10 mini freezes on clock screen

I have this phne for 2-3 weeks and it never run out of battery completely. Yesterday it did and when i plugged the charger it opened and it got stuck in the clock screen. No buttons are responding only the hard reset (power button and the middle one). The screen turns on and off every one minute. It is a mess...any help is appreciated!
Solved: Thank you guys for helping. I found that the solution was to download the Update Service from SE and follow EXACTLY the steps it mentions.
Steps:
1 Deactivate the phone for 30 secs. (in this case unplug the battery once it could not close normally)
2 plug the micro USB in the phone and then the USB to the PC
3 Before plugging the USB to the pc press the back button and hold it for as it takes. it takes a while. the the update service will start formating your software and it will be as new...notice that what the sd card contrains isn't deleted
realy ther is noone with the same problem? i start to worry. please could anyone say any opinion?
Hello,
try to start your phone in save mode and then deinstall your 3. party apps.
I think the failture comes from an app.
an app could also be the reason for a verly long boot time.
her some info's about the save mode: androinica.com/2010/08/06/how-to-activate-android%E2%80%99s-safe-mode-to-get-out-of-a-force-close-loop/
hope this can help you with your problem.
My suggestion to you would be to take it back to the place where you bought it and tell them to fix it... if it's only 2-3 weeks old they shouldn't argue.

[Q] Unlocked Neo V, worked, now it wont go on

Not sure If this should be here or not. I've tried my best to search for anything similar.
I have a Sony Ericsson Neo V MT11I and I unlocked it using a program, with my USB Cable.
The unlock cost me £13 and it worked fine. I checked the phone, and It was making calls and working fine.
A few hours later, it was off, so I put in the charger and nothing. No screen or activity. The green light next to the power button comes on and If I connect it to my computer, the computer detects it, then doesn't. (I hear the new device done every minute or so). When it detects then detects its unconnected the green light flashes once.)
It was working fine after I unlocked it, but this seems to of happened hours after I unlocked it.
Thanks for any help!
Hm, sounds to me like your phone entered some sort of bootloop, it can't even go to that image which you see when you charge phone(turned off).
Maybe that's why it founds it, then it disappear, and then it founds it again, and so on.
Can you please try 2 things.
1)hold back key and connect cable to phone (of course, other side is in PC)
2)hold menu key(that's the right one, some people confuse it with home key ) and connect cable(of course, other side is in PC)
Report what happens then. To be more safe, can you please re-insert battery between 1 and 2 (and also before 1) )
Hi Buddy,
While pressing the Menu key, and connecting it, the light remains off, until I release the button. Now I've done this, there is no sound on the computer. Even If I connect it normally without pressing any key.
Thanks,
You didn't answered on my entire question.
Plus, how did you unlocked it? And by unlock, you mean SIM unlock(able to use any SIM card)?
I did that and until I let go of the menu key the light didn't come on, now it lights up upon plugin, but I hear no activity on my computer.
I used wotanserver . com/en/sony-ericsson to sim unlock it, and sorry If I was not clear!
Thanks again.
back key, back key, you didn't answer me on that part
anw, try flashing it with wotan.
Sorry for the late reply. I flashed it, and it's now working fine. I would like to thank you for your help, I'd buy you a pint If I could.

Neo V safe mode & etc. problems

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.

Tablet won't power on anymore.

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..

Hello. Yestarday my xperia z2 has turned itself off and since then I can not turn on her. Even the red button OFF, which is used to restart the device does not help. I do not know what to do. I have guarantee for him but I would like to ask you first if maybe someone already had this problem and is able to help me. Phone was plugged in all night to the charger but it did not help. Sorry for my english, I wrote with the help of translator.

None of these methods has not helped. Phone does not vibrate at all when hold power button and volume up button.
Only a turn on for a while the red led in the support zone when he has displayed in order to connect your phone to your computer to update, but the computer it has not detected
