Hi guys,
I've tried to flash CM 11 based on kitkat maybe 2 days ago, but something went wrong and my phone is stuck on the SONY logo since then.
Everything I try to do, it's just getting me to the sony logo.
I try to restart it taking away the battery, Sony logo; I try to flash something else, flashboot does not see the device and guess what? Sony logo.
After a while the phone has gone in black screen and the led is blinking in red, so i guess the battery is down.. I go to plug it to the charger and... my old friend SONY logo!
I tried Linux, Windows, Flastool, SEUS, PCC.... windows only sees that something is connected on the usb port, but it does not recognize the device.
Is there something else I can do?
Thanks in advance for your help

Seeing how you're mentioning that your phone is stuck at the Sony logo, I'll assume that you haven't flashed the kernel provided at all and is proceeding with the stock kernel. Here's a few questions to see where you're at:
Did you root your phone in the first place? If you had, did you unlock your bootloader?
If answer to both is yes, can you please explain the steps you took for flashing Kitkat? All I can assume is that you might have erased your system and that your phone is stuck in a bootloop...

Rooting is not necessary for this process. Unlocking bootloader and installing the kernel are.
You need to install the provided kernel for CM11. Stock ICS kernel, with the Sony Logo, won't work with CM11

So here is the story. I had z's cm7 rom on my phone and went to switch to oodies rom. this is where it gets stupid. i was not thinking and installed oddies rom before i flashed the kernel. So now my phone starts up and stays on the boot Sony logo. pc companion and seus wont perform a repair and says my software is up to date. The phone wont let me back into xrecovery and just stays on the Sony boot screen. i am able to get into flash mode for like 10 seconds but the phone keeps telling me to turn on usb debugging. i have no idea, any help would be great.
You are connecting the phone too early on pc companion.

please help!
i have the exact same problem!
what do i do?
edit: if somebody else will have the same situation...
i downloaded the generic ROM firmware from here and i flashed it, meaning i lost root and the phone returned to stock
then i followed the instructions to unlock BL
I installed CWM and init.d to my ray. Restarted and plug in to charge. Next time I saw that my phone turned off and charged towards offline. When I started it goes into bootloop. I boot into recovery and wipeout what I can but bootloop continues.
I reflashed 4.0.4 stock firmware with flashtool but bootloop stays. I flashed nearly all stock firmware GB and ICS but I have the bootloop.
Bootloop with both logo 'Sony Ericsson' and 'Sony' .
SEUS said I have the newest firmware. Companion repair says no available firmware for my phone.
I tried to flash GB and start SEUS but still says that I have the latest software.
I haven't got cwm, fastboot, adb. Bootloader is locked and never been unlocked. (not allowable)
Sony software support is a piece of s**t.
Flashing not resolve this problem.
What can I do ? any ideas ? I have only flashmode.
Thanks!
I'm using Ray like you and if me were you i think you should root your device and use this rom:

Hello everyone,
I know there are multiple threads about the Xperia P being stuck at bootlogo and i've read them all.
Only my situation is a little different.
I had just installed a new rom after a 4.4 unofficial cm rom didnt work and wanted to try and installed the unofficial cm rom after i tried to fix it. But when I booted my phone it didnt turn on, and just turns off after a minute or so and turns back on immideatly, I can't acces CWM and trying to fix it with flashtool was also unsuccesful, so could someone please help me?
Is your bootloader unlocked???

In what way was flashtool unsuccessful?
Nevermind, I guess I didn't do my best when it came to flashtool, because the second time it did work, and my phone is working again!
Hy all....i lost my Galaxy S4 and i got my hands on a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini. First i wanted to put a custom rom on it with android 4.0...all i got was a boot loop. Then i wanted to put the stock rom back, it failed, and the phone now won't turn on at all, i can't even get into flash mode, nor recovery. My pc no longer recognizes it! I tried several things, but the problem persists... If i put my phone to charge, nothing appears on the screen. Does this happen to anyone before? I think it's dead forever . I will try to charge it for an hour or two, and i'll see what's going on. I accept any help and opinion!
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my english!
Edit: I went for a few hours of sleep, now when i connect my phone to the pc, the red led finally blinks, but the pc can't see the phone at all. Can't even get into flash mode...any advice?
Edit 2: I put the phone in to the wall charger and now it seems working (boot loop) but at least its not completely dead, i got my hope back!
What did you do next? Have you flashed it? How?

How in the hell did u hardbrick it? Also it's very unlikely to get a hard brick if you never unlocked the bootloader unless you've played with the internal hardware of the phone.
Flashtool tutorial is plentiful in the web... But I'll leave a link here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/flashtool-how-to-flash-sony-xperia-z5-t3425367

That's a softbrick... It isn't any bad news really... Give the phone some time to boot.
Hardbrick - no led, no vibrate, nothing works, connecting it to pc results in absolutely nothing ie cannot flash and cannot be detected etcc. Basically like a dam brick
Softbrick - got led, got vibrate, can be detected and flashed in pc, just can't boot into the system. This is usually no big deal.
