[Q] Tablet turns on when plugged in - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running this unofficial cm 10.2 rom, and I'm trying to use the sony flashtool to go to back to stock. Unfortunately I can't complete the step where I turn off my tablet, then plug in the usb cable while holding the flash key (volume down), because the tablet automatically turns on when I plug in the usb cable.
I know I'm not doing anything wrong because I've done this before. At the time I flashed stock while running the official cm 10.1 rom. What can I do to fix this problem?
EDIT: I forgot to mention that when it automatically boots everything is very laggy. This lag is gone when I manually boot the normal way.
EDIT 2: Don't ask me why, but when I deleted the clockworkmod folder from my micro sd card, the automatic boots stopped.

jup it´s a bug. the sony chargemon (the battery that showed on stock when you plugged the tablet in while it was turned off) isn´t included in cm10.x . the lagginess is caused by the governor which switches to "powersave" if the tab gets started by the charger (you can change it back to "interactive" in the performance options)

Probably, but all I know is this: I tried four or five times to plug in the usb cable without it automatically booting. Then I do one thing (deleted the clockworkmod folder), and the automatic boots stopped. I tried doing that after I read how someone fixed his automatic boots by deleting a keyboard app from his removable sd card.

I dont know but why not try to use SUS if you want to go back to stock.. it will delete everything though..

you need to turnoff your phone (WITHOUT USB PLUGGED IN !!!!)
SpyderX said:
2a. Turn off your phone. ---> not plugged in USB !!!!
2b. Open the directory you unzipped S1tool to and run S1tool.exe. Then, click on IDENTIFY button before proceeding to step 2c.
2c. Boot your phone into flash mode (make sure you installed Gordon's Gate found in step 1a first). All users, press and hold back button while connecting cable from PC to phone. Continue holding back button until you get some output. The LED on your phone should flash green if it is in flash mode.

booting into flash mod is plugging your phone while pressing back button (and stay pressed !)
so you don't need that your phnoe stays off while on USB... since the main thing is that he needs to startup with USB
If him post didn't help you try turning off, taking off the battery for 5-10 seconds, then put again and try again unlocking your bootloader

[Q]Can't boot xperia x10 mini pro in flash mode and can't back it to stock ROM

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
sent from my u20i xperia x10 mini pro running mini cm9 3.0.2 on nAa ics 3
THX nAa. VERY MUCH!!!
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.)

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?
SmG67 said:

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.

"N" screen keeps flashing on and off

Had it plugged into PC with no problems. Left, came back, the N logo keeps coming up, going black, then back up at 12 second intervals. Unplugging it causes the screen to go dark and I can't power it up. Plugging it back into the PC causes the n screen to start cycling again. Help?

We need more information in order to help you.
What kind of modifications have you made to your NT?
Custom kernel, custom ROM, new bootloader?
What recovery do you have installed? Have you accidentally formatted or erased anything recently?
Not sure I have all the asnwers but I'm running cm7 alpha, no customization beyond repartitioning. No accidental erasure....it was working fine, I walked away for an hour, came back, and there it was...
when it's connected to my pc it makes the sound as if it's trying be recognized every time the N comes up...repeats

I would try to see if you can boot from an SD card. Either a CWM bootable card or a CM7 card.
I had the same thing happen recently. If the problem is the same - mine was low on power and I didn't get it on the charger quick enough - take out the SD card and re-plug the tablet. For some reason this worked - I think because it was looking for something it couldn't find on the card. This allowed me to charge up normally.
Ironically the night before i ran it down to 0% power for the first time ever. Wold not allow me to power up until i charged it next morning. I will try powering up without card, as powering up with cwm bootable did not work.

Just making sure here, but did you try booting from your CWM SD while plugged into a power source?
A full night charge got it back up and running. But as a follow up - I took out my card with CWM on it, and when i powered it up without it , it still booted up into CWM. So I assume I have it installed internally (must have done that before and forgot about it). Put card back in, did a reboot from CWM and it came up fine in CM7.
is some tweaking in order here?

Maybe reflash CWM to your recovery partition. It may have been a bad install the first time.

xperia p no charging lights, no usb detect,does not boot (not even the kernel screen

hello everybody,
i used to be active on the x10 forum.
but recently i switched to xperia P.
i unlocked the bootloader,
used fastboot to flash custom boot.img,
fastbooted custom kernel (FreeXperia),
installed cm10.zip with the CWM included in kernel,
everything works except wifi and bluetooth (which i guess is the rom's fault, so i dont really mind)
and then i installed apps from the cm10 file manager.
it detects my 16gb internal memory.
but my titanium backup and some other apps says it cannot access my internal memory, so it doesnt show any apps. (usb is disconnected)
so i thought mayybe some apps dont have access, so i thought i should mount my internal memory (although it already works for my cm10 file manager).
that was a very stupid decision because i used this code from this website which i got after i googled and used it on my terminal emulator.
guess what happened? my device got stuck/hang/frozen.
then when i pressed the power button, it was totally blank, no response and the screen went off.
i tried force shutdown by pressing and holding the volume-up & power button at the same time for a long time, that didnt work either, it had no effect, there was not even a vibration.
and when i charge it, there is no charging light.
it doesnt boot, it doesnt show me the kernel screen, or the CWM screen.
this is worse than a bootloop.
anyone who has previous experience with this?? or has a suggestion on how to repair?
any advice will be much appreciated :crying:

Is your phone able to detect in flash mode? (while it is off, hold DOWN volume key and connect USB - check for LED illuminated)
Is your phone able to detect in fastboot mode? (while it is off, hold UP volume key and connect USB - check for LED illuminated PURPLE)

Hi.
1. Have you tried to charge it through the charger, instead of the usb por of PC?
2. If you tried, did you let it charge for at least 30 minutes? (Sometimes the battery drains so much that the phone needs time even to show it´s charging.)
If the battery charges, you should try flashing a Stock Rom through Flashtools.
If it doesn´t, then I can´t say you should do it but if I were in ur position, I would surely open my phone and try to charge this battery somehow. Google a lot to learn how it works, the wires, what is positive and negative and bla bla bla because your biggest problem NOW is not having power to work with the phone.
Hope you have good luck!
=)
Sorry please post your thread at Q&A

Use this guide to open the phone up and just disconnect the battery for a few minutes. Then try connecting in either fastboot/flash mode. The phone may need to be repartitioned and reflashed.
Same issue
Hi Davin-J
Did you finally solved this problem? I have the same now. And my battery should be good.
...............................
1/2 day later:
It was the battery. I managed to get it back to life as copper62472 told us. The strange thing was, that the Sony charger didn't charge the phone battery; may be because I bricked the phone before with system/data/cache wiped and formatted. I was not even able to restore it with SUS, because the phone was not detected at the USB.
Then I charged the battery outside the phone with a current limited power supply. After putting the charged battery back into the phone, restoring with SUS worked without a hitch.

I have been looking all over a solution to this issue but haven't been lucky at all. You might be able to help me. Here's the case:
The past weekend I shut my phone off to remove my SIM off of my phone in orther to test it in another Android Phone. Once I put it back into my phone and powered it on it took like 10 minutes to power on and then optimize apps. The thing is that it didn't recognize my SIM card anymore and It also couldn't be shut off without having to force the shut down. It would be looping 'shutting down' all the time and never shut off. It also can't be detected by my PC but it can be charged normally with a charger. The phone once is powered on works kind of normally, but I find personally sometimes sloppy.
I already have restored it to factory state via settings and nothing has changed. I can't restore via recovery since I cannot acces. I've tried all the possible combos to enter and haven't been lucky so far (power+volume down, power+volume up, power+both buttons pushed, power+clicking several times volume up or down, etc.).
My Z2 is running stock lollipop 5.1.1 - .264.
Any idea of what's happening?
Greetings,
Fernando

Does this happen with another SIM card? Did you have custom recovery installed before? Have you tried to flash a fresh FTF firmware trough flash tool?

I haven't tried with other SIM card but it's a fact that my sim card does work. I tested it in another phone.
It used to have once a custom recovery but I flashed it back to stock a while ago via flashtool.
Can't do any fresh flash via flashtool since my computer wouldn't detect the phone by USB lol.
I feel kind of screwed...

I can confirm it can't be flashed via Flashmode. Phone won't start via flashmode (volume down then plug) step.
Is your phone rooted? If not try with kingroot method and then flashing a recovery and if it succeed then flash a new rom.
