Xperia S Issues. Bad Flash
Hi, I read the 'existing users' installation instructions on the Sspeed ICS rom and installed the rom without installing the ics rom and kernel (I was tired). When booting, I go in a bootloop with the doomkernel screen. I can access recovery fine.
When holding vol+ and connecting to PC the phone goes back into it's bootloop and does not boot into fastboot.
When holding vol- and connecting to PC the phone flashes the green led and then boots into bootloop.
If I wait until the phone vibrates and lights up blue I can press the button to access recovery. I thought I could then just copy a gb rom over using USB mount but it is not detected on the PC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Thanks but like I say fast boot and flashmode don't work so I can't access this option
I have the same problem too... I was hoping it would just work, but apparently it doesn't it needs a base rom.....I'm at work at the moment so i cannot fix my phone(i flashed it while at work which i shouldn't have done...) i noticed you can put it into fast boot in recovery - go to reboot options then fast boot can you see if that works

Hi thanks for your reply. I've tried going to fastboot
from recovery and I get a blue flashing light for one flash then it boots up again. Am I able to do anything at that point?
Glad I'm not the only stupid one on here
im not the expert here but I have bricked other phones before but never an xperia phone before. I have been reading up, the doom kernel has some mounting options, try to mount the sd card as mass storage so pc can send files accross to the phone. It should be mount and storage menu -> mount usb storage, then leave it on that menu and connect to computer, see if that works

Hi is this by the mount USB storage optuon ? I tried that and it wasn't detected on the PC. I could try another PC later. Recovery went into mount mode fine but nothing happened on the PC. Not even a blank drive which I know some people have had
If it blinks the LED for a second and reboots, that means that you don't have the drivers. Install drivers that are bundled with flashtool and try again. Or use Linux / OSX.

I've used the laptop I'm trying it on for unlocking the boot loader and rooting. Maybe something corrupted the drivers. Will try on my Linux machine when I get home.
Thank you for all the help so far
Just Press VolUp and Power button until you get (one vibration followed by 3 consecutive vibrations) ... it will mean phone is shutdown.
Once shutted down, you will be able to press VolDown while plugging phone to PC and it will enter into flashmode.
Then you will be able to flash a FTF using flashtool
doesn't work...after the 3 beeps i let go and the screen turns black but then the boot loop happens again, i cant turn the phone off

Hello. I've got familiar problem. My phone blacked out after one day having about 35 % battery full. I was trying to reset it by holding power and volume up buttons - nothing happened. Just once showed up Sony logo but then again black nothing. Then it vibrate 3 times quickly and from that time it is shutted down, won't turn on even in flashmode. LED is not working too. I was asking for advice in local store servise and guy told me, that new phones have to be at least 30 min on the charger. So it's here now for hour, no result. :/
Just fixed this issue.
Follow these steps
1.hold vol up + power until phone vibrates 3 times.
2.open flash tool and point towards your stock file.
3.hit okay
4.wait for flash tool to prepare the files then it will prompt you to connect device in flash mode( vol down + power)
5.wait for it to finish. Unplug reboot and there you go fixed...
Hope this helps

Use the bundled wallcharger!!! not a PC, pc has too less power to charge it now!
After wallcharger is placed hold vol+ and power for a few seconds until 3 vibrations, then let the phone on charger for atleast 2 hours, if all is good phone will bootup to the "charging animation"

Something similar happened to me. I have the bugged version of chargemon (only can charge with phone on) and accidentally discharged completely. The phone didn't boot, didn't charge and didn't do the 3 vibrations thing. So I put the battery off, conected the wall charger, putted the battery and it booted
It's really easy to remove the battery, you just need to be careful

I can't go on flash mode or fast mode to reinstall again.

What did you said?
It's not bricked, one of my Xperia S phones did this to me on multiple occasions. The first time i just let it charge over night, or until the solid red LED turned to solid orange LED. The patience waiting for it to turn to an orange LED is the key here i noticed after it happening several times, interrupt it each time and it may as well be bricked through lack of patience.
Thread moved to Q & A section, kindly post in the relevant section next time.

Only the flashtool recocnised the phone with usb debugging off when I connect to PC but I can't go to flash mode or fast boot mode...
Is there any commands with an application that works with xperia s and re write its bootloader when its not in flash or fastboot modes.
I was installed all of the derivers needed for adb and ... when my Xperia S was working...

Hi guys, yesterday I unlocked and rooted my Xperia U, as I didnt have time anymore, I decided to install the kernel today, so when I installed it, I tried turning on my phone - nothing. I just got that red light thingy sometimes that is active 2-3 seconds, I tried charging but still nothing, funny thing is, when I connect it to my 2nd PC with XP on it, it connects, but in My Computer I only see "Digital Camera" and cant open it, also Windows Explorer popup for it keeps constantly, well, popping up but its empty and I cant select anything. I'm now downloading flashtool, is there anything I can do else? Im desperate, I got this phone for only 3 days.
Okay, now I'm in flashtool, I'm about to start flashing but I cant get into fastboot mode... What should I do?
Bump? :crying:
Please dont make me spam, I searched everything, I'm pretty sure my problem is unique, I cant access fastboot. Nothing
try this:
1. charge your phone for about 1 hour
2. open flashtool then click fastmode and choose your firmware.
3. make sure your phone is off ( i dont know if this is the same with xperia U volume up+power button wait til vibrates three times)
4. when it says connect your phone into fastmode, connect your phone via usb, then hold volume up + power button and wait till it vibrates three times, then hold power button+ volume down.
5. it will flash your firmware.
or you can flash the stock kernel (just extract from ftf, same instructions above).
I charged it for the whole night, the problem is, I cant access fastboot. All the drivers are installed but nothing.
I'm sending my phone for repair probably, with rooting I broke my warrant, what's going to happen?

Not vibrating, also, no led.
The only sign I get is when I take out the battery and put it back in, it vibrates for a second. Thats it.
Try to remove the battery and than try all keys combination,and also try to get to connect it to your flashtool.Try hard reset combination.Remove the battery,put the battery,hold power+vol. up button for. 20 sec. If that doesn't make.Try the same only with vol. down button .If that doesn't work,take it to the service shop than....
Hit Thaks if I helped
Hold vol up when replacing the battery, then quickly shove the USB cable in. Phone should vibrate when you put the battery in and you have a second or two to get it into fastboot or flashboot.
Probably a bad install of a kernel, make sure you're using the right one for your phone.
Not sure if it works for the U, but that's how I fixed my Sola.

Exactly what I did too. Try again and again. You'll succeed. have stock kernel at hand.
While updating a new Xperia U to ICS the PCC had an error while flashing the new firmware. Now the screen lights up, the sony logo is shown for ~3-5 seconds and then it reboots.
After that I have been unable to get it recognized again by either PCC/SUS or flash tool.
I also checked my log files in Linux and no device appears.
I've tried 3 different machines (2x Windows 8, 1x Win 7), multiple USB ports. Also leaving the battery out for ~30 mins didn't change the behavior.
The green light for download mode comes on, but after about 5 seconds the light goes out and it goes into the boot loop again.
So by now I believe the device needs to be sent in, but maybe some one has a few more things I can try.
Try pressing the volume down plus volume up plus power button all 3 simultaneously till u feel 3 vibrations

Can you make sure the Flashtool drivers are installed ? Go to Flashtool Directory, open drivers directory and start the setup.. Make sure to select the Flashmode and Fastboot drivers are also selected. Then, reboot System and folow this order.
Startt flashtool,select f/w, wait for Flashtool to tell you to connect to device. Then, holding the Volume down button (while phone is switched off), plug the cable into phone (The usb cable must already be connected to PC before starting the Flash Procedure )
The Order is very important.. I had same issue with U (althoguh mine crashed with Flashtool and same as what you observed. When I followed this order, I was able to get it detected and flashed )
Hopefully, you wont need to return to Service Center
let me know how it goes

No response, I've tried holding all three buttons for a minute, but it doesn't vibrate after turning on. The only way I can turn it off is by removing the battery.

I tried that right now, Flashmode and Fastboot drivers are installed. Flash tool is ready, device is plugged in with volume down pressed, green light comes on. Nothing is found on the PC, after about 5 seconds the green light turns off and the phone shows the sony logo. Green light also comes on if i simply plug in the usb without volume down pressed. So I'm thinking, the download mode has some how been corrupted?

Are u connecting it properly???
Make sure when u connect ur cell to ur pc u have nt presed the power key
keep the phone off
Press the volume down button ( keep it pressed, dun
leave it) and connect it to the usb
U will see green light
Darn.. That looks bad.. That did it for me on every occasion. I think you might have a hardbrick due to the interrupted write cycle so I dont think any other way except to take it to Service Center
Sorry I couldnt help

After several tries (a lot of...) I manage to enter flashmode and SUS is now reinstalling sony ROM.
Honestly I don´t know how it works this time and not the others but i'm happy with it independently of what happens.
... seems flashtool is detecting ur phone try to flash first the stock kernel and do not wipe everything it shud be in timing though.. onces it is flash charge ur phone in kernel mode (phone is off) then you can flash the stock fw of ur XU.
I bricked my phone
I bricked my xperia U as well... When i tried to power ON, it just vibrates and nothing happens, i dont even get the sony logo. When i get into flash boot mode it gets connected but after 20secs, the phone turns off again. Only fastboot mode stays on. How can i unbrick my phone??? Plz help. I made a mistake by flashing the custom jelly bean rom without flashing the kernel first.

No worries. The phone turns off because it doesn't receive any signal from the PC - many people make the mistake of connecting the device in flashmode first, and then they start the flashtool etc.
Instead, load the flashtool first, go to flashmode, select a complete/full stock ftf for your phone (whichever version you want, but do double check if the ftf has kernel.sin file in it) and press the flash button. Only once you get the pop up with the animation telling you to connect the phone in flash mode, connect the phone in flashmode (volume - button pressed when connecting cable). As soon as you connect the phone, the flashtool will start its magic and your phone won't turn off.
if you can go in cwm wipe system then you will only be stuck on sony logo then use this guide http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPPWRXcsz7g.....it will work because this same happened to me and i fixed it with this method!

only once the red light is blinking or it is continuously turning on when you are connecting the charger..if it is turning on then charge your mobile
for 3-4 hour..if that is not the case then try flashmode and fastboot mod..and when you are pressing power button are you getting any vibration??
if there above things dont work then your device may have hard bricked for which you have to take your device to service center...good luck

i dont think it is bricked because it was working fine 2 days ago and suddenly it started restarting!
then try to enter into flash mod by pressing the vloume down button and simultaneously connect the usb to the pc...if it is working then flash the stock ftf...if by connecting the cable to the phone through pc led is showing constantly then keep it remain like that for 3-4 hours..it might get charged.

its on the OS, could happen any time. Probably bootloop.

click the lightning on the flashtool and locate where you have put the ICS stock room.tft
hold down volume before connecting the cable to the phone.
then wait till the stockrom flash correctly.

its easy to recognize it, hold turn-off button and volume-up until 3 vibrations = force turn-off
if already turn-off
then hold volume-down before inserting the cable.

VOL UP+POWER =3 VIBRATION, mean you turn off the phone. No problem.
Step by step.
Turn off the phone. hold volume - and conect to computer. The led turn green?
The same, but with volume+ ¿the led turn blue?
Is very dificult brick totally the phone, we will unbrick, dont worry.

Yes if i hold vol up+power blue led comes and if i vol down+power green light comes. At flashtool i selected fastboot and selected flash kernel and flashed recovery.img as kernel. and that happened. i think thats the problem but is there a way to fix it?
Yes!!!!!! You're doing it totally wrong.
Recovery must be sideloaded via adb shell.
You'll need to flash your firmware and then follow the right steps to sideload a new recovery.

To unbrick you phone the only needed is flash your stock rom,excluding all minus the kernel. This will work and you hold your recovery with the phone working and you will can flash the root zip.

Change the order, first run flashtool,flashmode,selec the rom,check all except kernel,wait,after flastool say you connect the phone.
Turn the phone off with volume up + power until vibrate 3 times. push and hold volume- and connect the usb to the computer, the flash will start.

Interupting the process? Same hapened to me. Be sure to connect your phone only when everything is ready, so when the flashtool asks you to connect your phone, and not before. Worked for me.
