Hello comrades,
I have xperia x10 mini pro. I rooted phone with Flashtool and installed CWM. I tried to boot it in flash mode (turned off phone, back button held and plugged in USB into the phone), but what I get is that my phone turned on always, like that I pressed Power button.
Earlier I couldn't boot it into the flash mode and I got that I charging battery, but after I installed CWM, phone always turns on.
Due to, I can't re-flash it because it always turns on. I tried with flashtool, PC companion, SEUS but all software need that I turn off phone and then hold back button and plug in usb and what I get is turned on phone. Please help me how to fix this problem.
I would like to re-flash it to stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 (2.1-update1).
Phone turns on even if I just plug in usb to phone (one end is in the PC and when I plug in other end into the phone, phone turns on). What is wrong guys?

Happened to me b4 if u want to repair with pc comp just remove the battery till u reach connection step then quickly connect battery and cable (nvm the cover) and hold back button when connecting if u do fast enough will work

Leave your phone plugged in and press POWER-HOME and BACK all together, as soon as the screen turns completelly black (backlight off too) releast POWER and HOME, and leave the back-button pressed, that will probably work too.

Can you explain me a little more detailed, i didn't get you very well. I am noob
How do you mean until I reach connection step, where should I reach connection step?
You take out the battery, then you go into PC Companion and follow the steps to repair your phone, until it asks to connect your phone in flash-mode.
Then do as he said (put the battery in etc.)

I tried and POWER-BACK-HOME buttons while the phone is plugged in (turned off and turned on), same sh..t. Phone starts like that I powered it on

What do you think, what will happened if I wipe it using CWM? Can I brick it on that way?
If you mean formatting your phone, so you don't have a system on there anymore... that probably will give you a brick. Flashmode is a hardware feature, implemented to install firmware and enable reparations to your phone's software.
Deleting everything you can will not magically solve your problem, as far as i know.
It might help if you get mad at the phone and abuse the back-button by repeatedly pressing it when connecting the phone.

Does this mean that I have hardware problem. Phone works without any problem.
Somehow it doesn't detect you pressing the back-button, maybe there is some dust or dirt inbetween the contacts or something, since you flashed sucessfully before i don't think it's a serious hardware-problem.

I didn't flashed it before, I couldn't do that. I couldn't unlock bootloader, because I couldn't boot it in flash mode (phone just show that battery charging), after installing CWM now phone even don't show that battery is charging (it turns on when I plug in USB in the phone without holding any button). This is nightmare!
You are still on the original firmware then?
I mean, your phone still works?

Yes, I am on original firmware and phone still works, but I have problem to boot it in flash mode. When I plug in USB cable in the phone it turns on, like that I pressed POWER button. I don't press any button, but when I plug in usb cable 10-20 seconds and phone is on.
Yes, because your phone detects the usb-cable getting plugged in, even when it's off, it thinks you want to charge it, so (normally) it loads the kernel in order to start the charging-process, that is normal behaviour. I have been on a kernel that didn't support that feature, and it booted into the full rom before it started charging.
In short: the usb-port also functions as a power-button, sort off
Does the back-button work normally when you're on the firmware? (Like, open the app-drawer, pressing back-button should close it?)

Yes, the back button works perfect, closing apps (not close apps, but back to the phones "desktop"), back to previous pages in browser...
I am concerned because, before I installed CWM , when it was OFF and plugged in on USB, phone just showed black screen and when I clicked on some button I could see that battery is charging, that was all. Now, when I plug in USB it turns on like I pressed POWER button.
And off course never booted in flash mode because it turns on

What is app-drawer, I don't know what is that.
oh, that's the bit where you find all your installed apps, the grid you see when you press on the little triangle on the bottom of your desktop, or swipe up on the desktop.
I honestly don't know why your phone won't go into flash-mode though. Maybe try to take out your battery for about 10 minutes so your phone gets rid of all charge and static, and then try again.

I solved problem about POWER-ing on when I plug in USB. I installed new ROM "MiniCM7Pro_V21_Paul_XXX" via CWM because I didn't need to boot it in flash mode and now when I plug in USB I got that it charging battery and orange led diode.
But I can't boot it in flash mode even with new ROM, all the time orange led diode when I hold back button and plug in USB. I wiped out all date except something about "battery" from Advanced CWM options.

I unbricked my phone with this guide. my phone was in a OS bootloop but it works, in your case, a Kernel Bootloop. Its a very good guide. You DO NOT need to root your phone. When flashing, instead of pressing back you press volume down. The phone should be able to enter what it is called, flash mode regardless of what problems. After flashing ALL DATA WILL BE LOST. Just follow the guide.

Bit more detail how you bricked it installing CWM. What exactly you done and where you get it from.
Try to shut it down, press power + volume up untill you feel (1+) 3 vibrations.
See if you can connect it in flash mode (connect usb to pc while you hold volue down), the led should turn green.

First I'd like to thank's for your help ChikeD!
Well.... I was trying to install the new CM 11 Nightly Build - a custom ROM build on Android 4.4.2 KitKat- on my Sony Xperia P device
I had rooted succesfully and was seaching for an app on google play store to provide access to "recovery mode" that works with my LT 22i to finish the installation of this new rom... i tryed lot of apps, but no one worked... and so I've found this app "Recover X" from LEDelete developer.
after install and run, this app show me one option to get access to recovery mode... i dont remember exactly, but i saw somethig like "CMW......" on screen. after download, I tryed to reboot my phone and then its completly dead!! i'd tryed any kind of possibility pressing buttons dowloading softwares and more but my computers didn't recongize it when connect USB cable...
vol+ / power dont work, vol- / usb dont work, no charging indicator, no lights blinks, nothing works! it looks like a motherboard without any operational system...
And I saw in some websites that exist one JIG for Samsung devices that alows recovery phones with problems like mine... so i wonder if is possible to find some JIG for Xperia P or any other possibility of reinstallation of android system
I hope i made myself clear because I'm still learning this language... that means I'm sorry for my bad english in advice...
If there is anything that you can't understand, please let me know
Thank's a lot!
Alex
If you had asked before I would have told you Recovery X won't work, didn't work the 2 times I have tried it, but didn't brick my phone eithr.
To incatal CM you didn't neet to root or install CWM since you need to flash it's kernel anyway.
Is your bootloader unlocked?
Was the phone fully charged when it happened, did it start boot and then died or just went black?
Have you tried to hold the power + volume up for 10-15 minutes?
To reinstall firmware you need flash mode (volume down while connecting to USB), have you flashed with flashtool or PC Companion before?

Yes i had reinstalled twice by flash tool and pc companion, holding vol down while connecting to USB, because the device was with very low performance.
When i was trying to get rebooted on "recovery mode" before the black screen, my battery was on 85%....
Yesterday i tried to do "hard reboot" holding the power + volume up for 50 minutes and nothing....
Actually what i really need is find a way to get some response of the system of this phone (by connecting in some jig, or doing something with the software or even the hardware...), because if my computer recognize the phone, i do believe that i'll can handle with reinstallation... in other words, my challenge now it's only get out from the black screen for any other operational response
One of my ideas is unmount rear cover and try to disconnect the battery cord for 10 minutes and see if something changes... but i'm fully opened to new ideas
I really believe that i'll succeed on this case with yours precious help!!
Thank you again for your assistance!

Hi, i have problem with zenfone 5. My brother tried to install new android using wireless update in phone(auto update function). So the update downloaded just fine and phone was turned off like its gonna install update but never turned on after this, i tried everything but cant turn it on. I cant even get asus logo, absolutly nothing. When i turn it on charger led dosent show up, tried to enter droidmode(vol up + power) for 10min but nothing. My first guess will be dead MBO but its really weird that this is happen in same time the update was, so probably is something software related.

Hey there,
So I wanted to boot my phone to recovery (which i had installed some time ago) to make a backup, but the phone would just boot normally.
So i decided to install dual recovery from my pc. When it should ask me for root permission it didn't. I thought it's ok and rebooted anyway.
There is sony logo on the screen, then the screen goes black, the phone turns off and shows sony logo again.
I've dealt with bootloops a lot in the past, but How can i escape this loop if I don't have any working recovery?
Please, help me I'm really desperate :crying:

Yeah I know... Everything installed it just won't do anything besides showing sony logo and restarting no matter what I do...
I think it tries to boot into recovery which isn't there
My phone was bootlooping the other day and holding the power button wouldn't turn it off. I found though that Holding Power + Vol Up for some reason gave it a few vibrates and powered it off.
When phone was off I could then hold down Vol Down and plug in for flash mode and reflashed the TFT. Good luck.

yes of course you have to turn the phone off before trying to start it in flash mode. the power plus Vol Up will power off the Phone after the vibrations. after that you need to keep pressing vol Down and connect it to PC flashtool
