Hi everyone, I need help because I have probably bricked my Xperia Sola. Yesterday I tried to flash ClockWorkMod recovery ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766892 ). I flashed kernel.elf via fastboot and after flashing I unplugged the phone and I pressed the power button, the phone vibrated and the Sony logo appeared then the phone vibrated again and the blue led turned on and.. nothing else! It doesn't boot and i don't know what to do I noticed that if i press volume up while the blue led is on, the phone goes into recovery mode but I don't know what to do! Can someone help me?
p.s. Sorry for my bad english!

Well, if you clicked the volume up while he was with that blue LED, and opened his recovery, he may still go start the kernel... remove and replace the battery and turn on the phone, maybe it solves.

I can't remove it! The phone has a non-removable battery!
OK, do the following, click the power button and hold it more or less by 10secs and release when you feel three vibrations . It will reboot your phone .
I followed your instruction but the phone didn't vibrate 3 times.. I'm desperate, do you think that if I bring my phone in a Sony support center they will fix it?
He turn on a Red led when you pressing the power + up vol? have to be pressed in the same time.. you can fix it easily here. you dont need to go to a sony support center now. If reset dont work , you can use flashtool to make it stock again.

If you want , flash this rom , its have root and CMW -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908 you can use adb to flash , or with flashtool , what is much more easy to use.

Out of curiosity, were you on GingerBread or ICS when you flashed this ? And is your bootloader unlocked ?
Flash a Stock as mentioned before and you should be fine.You can go Either Stock ICS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914264
or GB (as in the previous post).
And the Force reboot is Hold Vol Up + Power for around 15 sec. You will initially have one vibration, then three. After which it turns off.
What were you on? ICS or GB?
It's just an incorrect kernel flash. Phone can still be fixed.
I've first hand experience with this >_>
Don't send to Sony. They're useless.
Hold power + vol up for 10 secs. The phone will vibrate once, keep the buttons pressed until the vibration is felt 3 times.
Let go of Power, keep the vol up pressed. Then quickly shove the USB port in.
Flash these kernels via fastboot, depending on which version you were on.
GB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908

EDIT:
Or you can save all the trouble with the following:
Download Flashboot. After the 3 vibes, quickly hold vol down and shove the USB port in. Flash the stock ICS rom (includes kernel) which will fix your problems as well.

Oh my god! Thank you so much! My phone works again!!! I flashed the ics .ftf file and now my phone is working!!
Yesterday I installed this rom, version 146, it's amazing, very fast and got no Wifi bug (button disabled), everything working fine.
Spent all the day outside home, data connection worked perfect. Went home on the night, got the wifi, no problem.
So, tomorrow when I was going to work, I picked up the phone and there was no data connection, strange. So I restarted the phone, still no data. Tried to find the phone operator, I restarted again, nothing.
I restarted to recovery, fixed permissions, still no data.
No data at all, so I thought about doing some backup on the recovery and install another rom to check it, tried to backup, but there was no space on the phone, and the recovery does not let me choose the ext_card to backup.
So I started choosing some options and then the recovery crashed, it's stuck, with the text "no files found", it's stuck there. I'm unable to boot, to do anything.
I don't know how to remove the battery, so I'm really stuck.
Three things:
1) No data connection, is this a bug?
2) How do I remove the battery to restart?
3) Can I install another recovery? Like the munjeni one?
Please help
Press power + vol up to boot again. Then go to recovery. Turn off phone,
Install a fresh stock rom.

Oh noes. I was able to enter the recovery using the power + volume up combination. So, I restored my last backup. The phone turned off. And does not turn on again.
I already tried the power + volume up combination. The phone simple respond with the first vibration, then the next three.... but does not restart, there's nothing on the screen. It's stuck again.

Flash a new stock ROM via Flashtool if you believe you need to. Use this link for stock Indian rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914264
The easiest way (for me personally) to flash new rom is to use Flashtool, get it from here:

This is the Flashtool thread here in XDA for a gude: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746

Thank, but the thing is... there's no connection the PC. Flashtool does not recognize the phone.
If I plug the usb cable the red light turn on, but the phone does not.
The only thing it does it's vibrate one time when I click the power button and four times when I press power + volume up.

Thanks, I did that and it's fixed. I was able to install the FreeXperia rom again
The only problem that I found now it's that after installing the rom I went to install the munjeni kernel. Tried using it, but did not work
On boot there's one message saying that the android process stopped and the NFC too.... strange.
The message does not go away
I think I will need to flash the FreeXperia rom and stays with the default recovery

Then dont flash munjeni's kernel mate, flash boot.img from FXP and stay with that CWM. That way you wont get messages and will have working rom mate.

Yeah, I will do that, stay with the FXP kernel. The problem it's that the munjeni kernel has more options, like open the ext_card and save backups there..
FOTA
Does it support ota for example from FXP 145 to FXP 146?
Newest munjeni kernel it's incompatible with most of the custom rom and cause issues.

You flashed a kernel after unlocking, right?
Did you unlock using the tool or sony's official?
Search for a kernel for your software version (if you were on ics an ics kernel, gingerbread gb kernel) and you have the boot.img. Now take the battery of the phone, wait a few seconds, insert it again, hold volume up, connect the usb while holding volume up, the blue led will light
Now open flashtool - click the flash - fastboot mode - select the downloaded boot.img - wait until flashing ends - unplug phone and start it :good:

Dear friend
You need not have to worry just download cm9 stable version. Extract its kernel on your desktop which is boot.img and copy cm9 zip in SD card
Now connect your phone: in PC in fastboot mode and flash cm9 kernel you will find your mobile will boot up with FXP then instal cm9 with cwm

This means that you deleted the whole system because it happened to me before. Download the stock ROM of your mobile and follow these steps:
1. Open Flashtool and press on FLASH (the one with the lightning).
2. Choose Flashmode.
3. Select the ROM and press on ok. If you get ERROR, try to clean up some memory on your disk.
4. keep holding the -volume button.
5. Plug your mobile on to the computer quickly before it boots up.
6. After flashing is DONE, Unplug your mobile from the computer and turn it on. It may take 2 minutes or more to boot up, so don't worry.
7. Your mobile now is stock as new, so it is not rooted and the bootloader is also locked i think.

Firstly try charging your battery using some other phone or some chargers where u can just insert battery(doesn't cost much) and then keep the battery for 15 sec(without connecting to charger or mobile)...now let's start from beginning....re-insert your battery and connect ur phone in flashmode and flash stock firmware...after that turn USB debugging, msc mode and unknown sources(just to be on safe side) then reflash the kernel using fastboot, hold vol up and connect to pc(obviously u might be on unlocked bl to do all this...) and then flash the ROM(u might have placed in ur sdcard) with correct wipes and boot it....
Just an advice: after u install the Rom go to launcher, then clear data and force stop, then remove the battery for 30 sec and then reboot it twice....

I had stock ICS first....I installed a memory_tweak which replaced the kernel and that caused the problem ...another cause maybe the phone stuck on AROMA Installer of new JB Rom.....so I had to remove battery in middle of that installer...............That's all I did
If your bootloader is locked just flash any ftf for your device with flashtool

Force shutdown (Power + VolUP for 10 seconds until vibrating for 3 times) then use fastboot or flashtool to flash its kernel or all.

Keep holding. Eventually it'll vibrate 3 times and be properly shut off, ready for flashing

Green led means chared too.
How do you tell it is in flash mode? What is flashtool reporting?
Flash mode IS what you need to flash new firmware.

Open flashtool, connect the usb while pressing volume down, does flashtool reports device conndcted in flash mode?
If it does, disconnect the phome and click the flash icon, select flashmode, slect FW file to flash (exclude TA if present), wait untill flashtool ask you to connect the phoen, press volume down and connect the phone, wait to untill flash is finished.
