i tired hard resert but not work, try without sim and memory card but nothing help
Sorry on my poor english
I hope somebody while help me
How about a bit more info?
What android version?
Any modifications made by you?
Wifi on or off at the moment of restart? If wifi is turned on, have you tried with turning it off?
Tried repair software with pc companion? If not, try. Make backup first.
android verison 2.3.4
I tired everything off-on, wifi, bluetooth, gps........
today i tried repair software with pc companion but same thing happening
i dosnt do any modifications
Then I believe it's time o visit service center.
Not sure if you bought it in store or from someone. Some models back in time had problems with restarting. I found out that half an hour before I went to store, but bought it anyway. Was lucky that mine didn't have problem with that.
if pcc did not work
go the service center 。。。。
Friend tries to update the software from the PC companion, do not try to repair the software, update it would be better if you can not should go rather in technical assistance

1) just for your information, repair is better than update. giving you a clean phone
2) what will you do if you already have latest software?

First, please, I tried tons of different things. I'm a linux kernel hacker too, although I never hacked android related stuff yet.
When I try to turn the phone on, it just quickly blinks the green line, vibrate and nothing else happens.
It was running firmware version 1.6 fine until I tried to upgrade the phone using a windows xp running in a vmware VM. I tried companion, SEUS and FlashTools. All left the phone running with the yellow exclamation mark after.
I continue trying to flash it until suddenly even the exclamation mark stopped showing up.
After that I moved to a native windows installation and SEUS went all the way through updating the phone, but the phone never turned on again. It just happened what I described above.
I already tried everything I came across with in the forums: flashing versions 2.1 and 1.6 from different places, with different versions of the FlashTool, and SEUS, and the companion .... it always goes all the way through, saying all ok, but when I turn on the phone: same-o. just quickly blinks, vibrate and dies.
Any idea? had I really hard broken my phone?
Please, any direction would do.
Interestingly - I have excatly the same situation with my partners phone. Attempted to downgrade to 1.6 using a couple of methods - editing build.prop and then SEUS and flashing this firmware.
Problem I have now is SEUS says I have the latest firmware and doesn't offer an update - I guess this is because the version of the software that is installed is higher than what is currently avaiable to the CDA I have put in the build.prop
Next I tried putting 2.1 back on from this thread.
The phone will not boot still it does excatly what you have said - blinks, vibrates and then turns off!
Thank you for the reply. It is good to know Im not alone
In my case SEUS always says there is a newer version and flashes the phone. It goes all the way to the end and says the upgrading was successful.
Would it be possible that although the phone "accepts" being flashed, it is not actually writting anything to a persistent state?
Is there a way to verify if what I flashed is really there? Otherwise SEUS should way nothing to upgrade, since it already did it all the way through successful.
easy question:
are you sure you have battery remaining to start it up and flash? if not, try to charge the battery on another phone.
I guess so.
I'm using a multimeter to measure the power of the battery, which varies from 3.6 to 4.1 volts, depending on how long I leave it on the charger.
So although the phone gives no indication of being charged, I guess that measure is enough to say it is being charged, right?
I've even just tried Omnius Server, which flashed perfectly fine, but still the phone won't boot Its completely dead now
Yep. I also tried that. Wasted money..
So far no change.. the thing is still a brick.
.. well, a brick is at least heavy enough to actually deal some damage when thrown..
Hah Just getting it exchanged now - tried everything - given up!
well, just in case you have it on warranty, go ahead
take it to the shop
repair
stop wasting time and money... go to a GSM SERVICE... you need service tool to revive your phone if it's deadboot...
i use setool to flash sony-ericsson phones and it's the best flash tool...
if it's bootfcked, then you need jtag's...
@sanyyous
setool will flash the phone just like SEUS or FlashTool will, right? or it will do some other kind of flashing witchery?
and jtag you mean hardware debug and service, right?
the issue is: I bought the phone in London and I'm in Brazil now. So either I fix or I see a trash bin in this little x10's fate.
setool flashes the same way than my tool,but it has more tricks afterwards for some other things.
For me it sounds like :
1.) False USB-Port or Cable
2.) False nand
Please try to following:
Go into your car with a laptop and flashtool on it -> Start the engine and pull down the AC to the coldest state it can do.
hold your phone DIRECTLY with the battery in Front of the cold airstream.
Flash it now
I have recovered a few dead phones so, the problem is that they get too hot and the nand shows errors while temporary placing the flashimages -> If so the loader rejects the image because of checksum fail.
-> Give it a try, if it don't work you have to send it to service.
Regards
Bin4ry
Man.. I will try as soon as I get home... and if it works.. expect a good donation.
Out of curiosity - did it work?

I still couldnt try.
In Italy now. I'm going back to Brazil only Feb 3rd.
Meanwhile I'm trying to convince my gf that she couldnt break the phone even further for trying. Hopefully I'll lure her into doing it until this weekend.
Firgers crossed.

If this works, it's a miracle.
Maybe trying the fridge would have the same result, but all that ice could damage the phone .
Good luck and I really want to know if it works.
Yeah, on the fridge the moisture would probably ruin the phone even further. .. if thats at all possible.
And believe me, no one would wanna see if it works more than me.
<girlfriend-apeal>
you see, everyone wants to know if that works. please, you wont ruin the phone further just by trying it )
</girlfriend-apeal>
My wife's x10 is OK, so it would just be out of curiosity for me .
Good luck.
I got my gf to try but it didnt work
I'll try it myself when I get home next week, but I dont think thats gonna work..
Anyway, I drop by next week to comment on the final status.
Thanks for the replies so far.

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my x10 mini pro. There are some similar posts here but nobody exactly describe what is happening to me. So my problem:
One day i have been in subway, phone working properly everything fine. THan suddenly 3G icon has disappear and wouldnt go back. So i decided to restart the device. But since i turned it off, i cannot turn it back on again...
I have tried to take out the simcard, take out mempory card, multiple time reflash by SEUS but still cannot turn it on.
I cna charge the phone with no problem, i can flash it with no problem, but i cannot use it at all.
When i press power button, phone shortly vibrate as he is turning on, than display get a bit brighter (not white, just lights up its easy to notice from profile). and than after few seconds get black again. And like this it continue until it drains battery, only without vibrating. every cca 5 seconds display light up and than get black again. So i guess its rebooting all the time. I have tried all tricks like pressing power+home button, still nothing.
I think i just need really wipe out the whole phone and flash it again. Is it possible somehow? I feel like reflashing by SEUS is not real hardcore flash, is there anything stronger i can try?
I am willing to try anything if anybody has an idea, since its not working anyway so i dont care what i try.
Thanks for advices !
try binary's flash tool, it helps every out. use it in the same way you would SEUS

I try this already... Still the same
Try to flash 1.6 back.
I had the same problem, didnt ever find a way to fix it so had it replaced under warrenty. may be your only way on this problem im afraid.
I tried 1.6 - didnt work
Problem is that i have no warranty.... I just gave it to my friend who is going to singapore, she knows some official SE shop, so maybe i will get it fixed, but im not sure if it wont be for the same money as new phone...
Well the phone is under a year old so it will be covererd under se warranty unless they think you broke there warranty in any way. I would flash it back to your original FW before having it looked at and wipe your sd card.
I bought it in chinese market (Its not a copy) without any receipt or anything, I dont think so they will took it as a warranty. I have done all of this. Flashed to my original FW, wiped everything, nothing works...
did u try SEUS ?
is your phone getting detected via SEUS in flash mode ? what happens when :
1. Take off the battery for 30 secs
2. connect the phone to usb
3. Power on the phone with back button pressed.
if SEUS detects u should be able to flash it. The flash tool also should be working.
Hello again
Sometimes we can brick our devices by a bad unlock, flashing process, or simply bad luck.
The phone doesn't turn on and there is a Red Led Of Death when pressing power button. Even with a GREEN led when we plug the phone with back key pressed the computer detect the phone as "unknown device" so there is no chance to get fixed by Flashtool or SEUS/PC Companion.
Well this problem normally means that the bootloader is broken or damaged. So, in order to fix it we need to write a new SEMCboot and after this we were able to flash a full and fresh firmware with flashtool and unbrick our Xperia.
This process like unlocking process requires SETool dongle/box and a paperclip to make a testpoint to put the phone in flash mode and be able to write the SEMCBoot.
I can help to anyone with a bricked Xperia Arc/Play/Neo/Pro just make send me a PM.
Like unlocking process you will need this 3 programs:
SETool software for unlocking
USB Over network client for remote dongle
Teamviewer client for remote support and guide
anyway if you want me to buy a Dr. Pepper just
Sometimes even after fix the bootloader the phone doesn't want to boot. In most cases this is by a damaged TRIM AREA (TA).
The trim area is a part of softwere stored in eeprom so it can be read and write with the proper software like SETool.
Read and Write trim area is very easy but you should know that some sectors of the TA are unique for you phone, lets call it Security Units.
The process for repair trim area is indeed very easy.
For sure we need Testpoint like in unlocking or bootloader repair process.
1. Backup Security Units with this script:
Code:
taread:00020851
taread:000207D3
taread:000207Da
2. Write a Working TA backup from another phone (same model)
3. Restore Security Units.
Thats all, now your phone should boot well but is 90% possible that you dont get Signal so for fix that we need to unlocking.
If this last thing is needed you can refer to this thread:

Nobody knows yet.
Thanks Alejandrissimo!!
Alejandrissimo is the best!!
Two weeks ago, I tried to flash cyanogenmod7, but I'm a n00b, so ofcourse it went wrong. My device(Arc) wouldn't boot anymore, I tried some things and suddenly it even wouldn't connect with fastboot..
So I saw this topic and some other ones from Alejandrissimo, Many comments praising him for his patience and help, that's why I contacted him, and that evening he helped me getting my phone working! He really Knowles where he is talking about!
Only problem I had left was NO SIGNAL, I asked Alejandrissimo if he could help me with that and yes he said he could. For almost a whole week, oh well. Much time difference, so it was hard to catch eachother we tried flashing it again and again in different ways. Yesterday he thought he had the answer, we tried it, and it worked!! I'm so happy he helped me getting my phone back! So so many thanks again Alejandrissimo!!
In order to unlock my trim area for my SIM I had to pay 24USD, cause Alejandrissimo had to buy credits at Sony Ericsson, but it was totally worth it!
Sent from my WORKING LT15i using xda premium
happened to me this morning but with a lot of luck i managed to get the phone in the flashboot mode (with a lot of tries connecting to PC) and install the stock FW (as i read FW is light on the boot loader)and tried to boot (with a lot of tries) i got it boot once but stops after Xperia screen i tried and tried until it booted normally i want to get back to the custom ROM but afraid that problem accrued again.
NOTE:last night tried to install True licensed market to get paid apps for free the phone heated and heated i uninstalled it and connected the phone to the laptop to charge overnight.
check your gtalk @Alejandrissimo. i've just send you invitation
i need your help for giving my mini pro back,now its on the dead of red led :crying:
Hi people. Because of work and children I have no much time to visit every thread on xda or check all PM, but you can always can contact me to gmail or hangouts.
Sorry for my terrible English!
My Xperia phone had some problems from the beginning, some lag and one time a week it freezed for some seconds. But it was usable anyway.
Now, after JB upgrade, it freezes more and, sometimes, when someone call me I can't slide completely and the phone tells me that the phone app is blocked. Sometimes the phone work but I don't ear the ringer, it can only vibrate, often it works well.
I just called Sony support but they say that the assistance can be not useful if these problems happen only sometimes. So they give me the advice to use another sim from other operator.
It is very difficult doing it, but I will try.
Any advice?
Thanks!
It seems you got a lot of problems. Backup everything and repair your phone with pc companion
Send from my xperia p
try to flash the JB ftf again with wiping everything after make a backup then flash Sliding Kernel V8.1.1 if u have unlocked boot-loader
it will work inshallah
Unfortunately I haven't an unlocke BL, and I think it is better not to unlock, if I don't solve the problem I try to send the phone to Sony assistence.
@Toon10: sorry, but how can I repair the phone by pc companion? I mean what kind of option or application have I to use?
Thanks!
NOTHING
You can charge it without it being turned on I assume.
That should get you to 80 or more % so you can repair it with the companion software

Sorry, I do not quite understand how to charge it without being turned on, once connected to the power it will automatically start and restart infinitely, is there any detailed operation method can tell me?
Can you both to recovery and charge there?
Standard way per internet:
"
Recovery Mode SONY Xperia 1 III
At first hold down the Power key for a few seconds to switch off SONY Xperia 1 III.
After that hold down Volume Down and Power button for a couple of seconds.
If the SONY logo appears release the Power key."
In your case see if you can match step 2 up with the phone rebooting if that makes sense.
I would try that with power cable in first, then without the cable in, if the other doesn't work. Then put power in while in recovery mode.
Hope that works

Please help me, my Hong Kong version 512 grey xperia 1 iii arrived on the first day, I tried to brick the Taiwan version of the firmware, and now I am prompted as shown in the picture, and reboot infinitely. I want to use xperia companion to fix it, but it says it needs more than 80% battery so it keeps failing. I'd like to know how to charge it in case of infinite reboot. I'm really afraid of using newflasher as a white guy, I can't understand what partitioning or whatever I said in other posts, adb always prompts waiting for device, and the driver is always a yellow exclamation mark. Please have no big brother to help me! I am more anxious to use the phone also stall on such a thing!

Were you able to fix your phone? I have the same problem, I unlocked my phone and rooted it but then decided to relock my phone. Silly me i didn't charge my phone before using the Sony companion to repair it now it just keeps rebooting when I tried to charge it. Anyone has a solution to this is very much appreciated.
I had the same problem and brought it back to the store. It seemed that there was a problem with the fingerprint button, which kept the phone in restart boot. The only thing you need to do is to bring it back, have them/Sony check the phone. Ultimately you will get a New phone. I did. Yesterday. Hope it does not occur again.
I have same problem please help us. I have XQ-BC72 HK and I used New Flasher to flash RU or TW and corrupted. And I tried to fix with Xperia Companion but I have no charge.
Bro I solve the problem and phone is running now... Contact me...
