Hi Guys, I have an unrooted Xperia X10a that had the rebooting issue where it restarts itself if I do heavy applications. I thought this was a software issue, so I tried to update the android software from 1.something to 2.something. However the phone rebooted in the middled of the update so now I have a dead phone. It no longer boots up (I don't even see the sony ericsson screen) and the only thing that works is holding the back button and inserting in the usb which gives me the green solid light and I hear the computer detecting it usb sounds. There's no light that turns on if I connect it through the power adapter so is there anyone who have experienced this issue that fixed it? Thanks and hopefully some of you guys will give me some solutions
use seus and repair..
this is a common problem
seus requires me to fully boot up the phone. As of right now if I try and turn the phone on, it just vibrates once(the normal power on vibrate) and the screen remains blank. If I plug the phone in on the pc I get a green LED light.
i have thesame problem here... i have search every day but it seems theres no SOLUTION for this kind of problem... developers please help us here

no you don't..
it is recognizing your phone.
you doubt have to fully boot to use repair in seus, how would that make any sense?
Heres what happens when I try and update my phone

hmm.. try running the repair again.
could be a motherboard issue.
are you still under warranty?
I have exactly the same problem ,I flashed it with flashtool an PC compagnon many times . it works but when I reboot it about 4 or 5 times the problem come up again (vibrates once but no turning on)
It's seems like the flash memory losts its containing .
I've also notices then when this problem occurs the battery is not chargin ,so the charging is software-dependant .

download this http://www.filesonic.com/file/1998392364 install it and just follow the instructions and it'll boot up.
k now my phone doesn't even turn on after I tried to root it with the flash tool. No red light led nothing. I know there's atleast 30% battery before it fully died and refuse to restart.
Just try another repair BUT first charge to 100%.
Pull out battery plug in wall charger put battery in an leave off for 30 minutes then turn on and let charge to 100%.
Can't charge it to 100%. Phone refuses to turn on... no red light nothing happens when I plug in the usb through wall charger and the computer.

Have you tried the flash mode ?
Get an independent battery charger from SE, charge it to 100% then use it to help you flash a firmware back.
The SEUS works for me..thank you all..

Even if the light does not come on.. just leave it to charge. -_-
If it still wont come on after 3 hours.
check charger... then check for replacement battery.
Then try to re-flash to stock. "i suggest Doomlord's pre-rooted stock"
Hi, my girlfriends's xperia neo won't power on or charge, last night she was playing a game and the phone powered down because the battery died , she then plugged it in and in the morning it we found it wasn't turning on anymore. When we press the power button , the LED blinks red three times, this has happened before but when we left it alone, it started working.
We have tried taking the battery, SIM and MicroSD out, then plugging the cable in, waiting a while, putting the battery in and waiting another while (we saw this on a forum) sadly it didn't work (tried this with both the wall charger and charging from pc)
the phone is still under warranty and she doesnt want me to void it by flashing new FW
Can anyone help or should we send it back to sony for repair? I'd prefer to be able to fix it at home, (i have plenty of experience repairing software issues on various android phones)

How about Repair phone with pc companion?
If it is unmodified, send for repair.
The plug was switched on either

What rom and kernel you're using?
Edit: ok,i see that your phone is unmodified,so, my advice is to send it back to Sony,for repairing.

Try charging with another mini-usb (all are compatible with Neo),and if doesn't charge,it means that it's a hardware failure.

Since the software it's unmodified,i don't think that it's a software related problem,but worth a try.
i had problems like that with my galaxy mini .. it was caused by bad usb cable... try to charge with another one... or the battery finally died... buy a new one

Does red LED blinks 3 times?
Does your PC says unknown device?
Send it to repair. You won't be able to fix it at home, unless you have SeTool box.

I have read the similar threads, unfortunately they do not seem to help.
Relevant information:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 9 2nd June 2012 Nightly
Kernel: Siyah 3.2.8
What happened: I was playing Rage of Bahamut (a game, nothing too intensive) when my screen appeared to dim and get stuck on the current image. I could press the home button and the screen will turn off, pressing home button 4 times triggered the inverted colors mode but I could not get to the homescreen itself, so I turned off the phone. When I tried to turn it on again it won't turn on.
What I tried:
Swapping out with a full battery - Doesn't work
Booting with USB Jig - Doesn't work
Plugging in to PC to see if USB is recognized - Doesn't work
Trying Recovery and Download key combinations - Doesn't work
I'm utterly at a loss as my phone appeared to be working fine, and from what I read the SGS2 is unbrickable. However I have been reading on the Siyah thread that 3.2.8 has a lot of issues and I really hope that I'm not experiencing another hard brick like what happened with Siyah 3.2.1RC6 (IIRC).
Thanks for reading! Hope someone has a suggestion.
Note: Interestingly, when I plug in the charging cable after a while the back of the phone gets warm; However still nothing happens when I attempt to turn it on. No response, no vibration, no soft key lights no nothing.
Service center (JTAG repairer might well say unfixable). No signs of life, no download mode, no jig. Dead phone.

I was kinda resigned to that. Just hoping one of you guys might have an obscure method to bring the phone back to life.
Thanks for your kind reply!
U cant turn the phone on, your pc doesnt recognize it, you cant go into recovery or download mode, you cant use USB jig. Oh boy, you're in deep trouble. Maybe the charge of the phone might be finished? U sure the other battery you placed was fully charged? I have never seen someone whose phone doesn't turn on at all, and even the pc doesnt recognize!

Dude, i dont even think this is a problem related to the software. I think its probably the hardware. Maybe the battery case has some defect? You should go see an expert for this.

Indeed I suspect it's hardware also. The strange thing is, I took the battery out to charge it in an external charger, and left the phone battery-less while I slept. When I woke up, I put the battery in and tried to turn on the phone. No luck. Strange thing was that after a while the phone felt warm.
how can i fix this problem?
the phone is already dead, and it won't recognized by USB.
thanks.

If its SDS take to a service centre if you are just guessing that its SDS then post exact problem
I'm not just guessing.. I've read about it for like 2~3 hours and tried to find a fix.
but the only fix is by flashing the 4.1.2 + roms but it can't even recognize my phone
when i worke up today, my phone wouldn't respond and the blue light just flickered. (i mean i couldn't turn the screen on.)
then i just took the battery off, and when i put it back and tried to boot my phone, nothing happend.
and now my phone is probably just dead.
so.. anyone can help me please?
You are guessing .
Their is NO FIX .
You require a new motherboard no ifs and or buts .

1) Complete eMMC failure. This usually happens over night whilst on charge* - The LED may be lit but the phone will not wake. Subsequent removal of the battery will turn off the LED. You will never get the LED back on. The phone will never turn on again. It needs to go to a service centre and have the motherboard replaced
Ok so i've had this phone for a long time.. around 2 years i think.. Anyway today the phone just turned off by itself.. i tried turning it back on but it flashes the green light once and then vibrates when i press the power button but after that i get no response.. The screen does not turn on.. and the phone just doesnt respond.. Then i have to take out the battery and try to power my phone again but get the same response.. green light blink and then a vibrate but after that its dead..
Is my phone bricked? i didnt install anything new so i dont know how it just became dead itself.. secondly i've tried repairing the phone through Sony's update service and PC Companion and it gives me an error when it starts to install the software on the phone
Any solution?
Anyone?

Try flashing an original firmware in flashtool...
edit: try a different battery ?
hope this helps...
Im not able to flash from flastool either.. It doesnt complete the process.. just gets stuck at 0% at "flashing data"
The only time I've had that issue was when my cable was messed up...Maybe try a different cable?

you can try it or try to hardreset so ",my english is not good" you can try to turn on mobile for a 20 second on the power buton than remove battery ,conect usb cable with device, hold back buton and while this insert battery
Since your phone vibrates and blink's the LED light, I believe it's still alive.

I'll try to break down parkci's method:
1. Remove back cover
2. Press and hold the power button for 20 second
3. Remove battery (while holding the power button)
4. Conect usb cable between PC and device
5. While holding down the back button insert battery
This may hopefully either hard reset or put it into flashmode....
Supposedly another way to hard reset:
:
Press both LEFT and RIGHT buttons on the front and POWER ON...
Good luck...

Pressing the left and right button and the power button doesnt do anything for me.. just blinks the green light and vibrates the phone but again it doesnt turn on or anything.. just dead after that..
