How come when I power off and turn phone back on(no battery pull) and hold vol. Down, the phone boots instantly? If I turn the phone off and just press power and let it boot it takes about a minute to boot.

This happens to me on occasion just because im impatient. When u power off the phone even though the led light and screen goes blank it takes a minute to fully power off on its own without battery pulls or fastboot checked off. If you try to volume down power before it fully shuts down then thats when it boots back instantly. The reason is the phone hasn't fully powered off.
Hi, I had a car accident this week.
The screen cracked in several places and the led was blinking red.
It would not turn on, the 10 sec press of power button + volume down button did not restart the phone.
When I connect the phone to the computer the led turns white!!!
The file system on the computer does not see phone when connected to the usb.
Anybody knows the meaning of white and red colours leds?
Also, what would be my options of reviving the RAZR?
or how to extract my contacts and photos from the device? how to make the PC read it as an external device?
many thanks!
are you able to boot in fastboot?
does your screen show you something or stay black?
could you explain what you did step by step and tell us what your phone do
Blinking red is low battery, white is charging when powered off.

thank you for the answers.
how do I boot in fastboot?
the screen does not show anything.
it does not respond to any buttons now and only when I connect to PC white led is on...
maybe I should try to connect it to the wall plug?
blinking red is interesting as I am pretty sure the phone has enough battery before the accident...why would it suggest low power?
could it be that battery broke inside and leaked?

To get to boot menu, Pwr & vol +/- at the same time then select fastboot by selecting with vol- and enter is vol +. But first try the wall plug to see if you can get a charge on it. With the wall plug you should get the battery symbol with a watery level indicator.

for the god's sake..
it isnt power button + volume, its -volume + power button
ok, I have connected it to the PC - the white led comes on.
I then hold the volume down+power buttons for cca 10 secs - the white led goes off, but nothing appears on the screen.
is this a 100% proof that the screen is dead?
I believe the white led blinking means that there isn't enough power going through the charger to power up your phone. Can't remember where I read that however.

anyone know a good walk in repair centre in Berlin preferably in Tegel or Zoo area?
So my Xperia S just now completely froze up while playing 9mm.
Touchscreen and hardware buttons are all unresponsive, holding down the power button does nothing and since my battery is near full and my brightness maxed I'm worried about damaging the screen by just letting it run out of juice. Strangely the game is still running, just nothing works.
I looked for a physical reset button but its nowhere to be found..
How can I reset my phone?
Edit: Allright so after about 20 minutes or so the phone magically became responsive again and is functioning normally for as far as I can tell.
Nevertheless, I'd still like to know how to reset it should a need for it arise in the future.
Try this:
hold standby and volume up for five seconds and the phone will reboot.

It Works!!
Thank you!
Press on standby button and volume up button at the same time really works to reset the phone!! Cool~~!
Worked fine with me...
Thx for the post and the helpful answers.
It worked well with my SXS.
Pressing the button combination actually turns off the phone; you then can turn it on/ reboot it normally.
Thx a lot, M.

When my phone freezes (it happens more than once after the last firmware upgrade) I presso power button and volume up to reboot.
Pressing both volume buttons together is a BAD idea!

According to Sony, holding the vol up and down buttons together and pressing power until you get 3 vibes is the same as removing the battery.
Usually it takes about 10 secs first a single vibe and then about 5 secs later 3 vibes, but under some circumstances it can take up to 20 seconds on my phone at least.

Have need help , please help me, I can't reset my phone .
I rooted and flashed custom ROM to my HTC Jetstream. I installed the custom ROM via CWM by Doomlord. When my device went to reboot it tried booting once then the screen went black. The power is turned on. The orange light comes on by the power button. Then goes off. It is fully charged. And when I hit the power button the LED light flashes.
press and hold for 30 seconds or so.
if that won't do, hold vol down and power 2gether

Sounds like it could be a corrupt bootloader?
Things to try
Press the red 'off' button beside the sim card, then charge in a A/C charger for several hours, then see if it will power on
Do the above but dont power on. hold down the volume down button while connection to a PC
Do the above but press the 'red off button' while holding the vol - button while connected to the PC
These last two we want the LED to turn blue for 1/2 a sec then go out (Flash Mode)

USB cannot recognized.
So what i gonna do?
The only times I've seen a blinking red LED (with and without a cable plugged in), is when there are issues with the bootloader. I've accidentally locked my bootloader while being on a custom kernel a couple of times, and I've gotten this exact behavior.
What was the last thing you did with your Ultra?

I didn't do anything. My phone no root and locked bootloader. And now the led is continuous (red led, yellow blinking) when i'm charging. cannot do anything with it.
Sorry my English not good.
I would go to a service center, if i were you.
Yeah, I would probably send it in for repairs too since I can't really tell what's going on.
Yeah i already send it to service center
