[Q] Xperia U Hard bricked (I think) need help :( - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

~Help~
I plugged in my phone to the wall charger (because my phones battery was low not dead..) and when i checked whether it had charged after about 30 mins.. My phone DIDN'T respond.. my notification LED was flashing (Which means that my phone wasnt dead.. I pulled out the battery and put it back in right away.. My phone didnt boot up.. :crying: i pulled out my battery a couple more times thinking that it was a lose battery fault or something but no.. A few hours later i tried searching online for help.. I read some posts which had been posted on XDA saying that if your phone is soft Bricked u have to flash a new kernel and etc... i tried to boot my phone into Flashmode, it didnt respond. Not even fastboot mode.. When i connect my phone to a USB cable.. the notification LED gives out a red light and after 10-15 mins it goes off.. Its been almost a week now.. And Yes i've unlocked my Bootloader and rooter my XPERIA U. If you guys know something that i could do to get my phone back up and running again.. please tell me.. thanks in advance

I need to know which kernel were u using... may be kernel doesnt supports offline charging...
I am not sure whether its a hard brick... coz phones just dont brick themselves
Okay u can do some crazy things..
Try charging the phone via a wall charger... keep it for atleast an hour...
If it doesnt works...
Try wid a usb charger... connected to a laptop or so...
After this pull off the battery... keep it out for 10seconds or so..
Insert battery
Dont try to swtich on ..
Try connecting in fastboot mode ....

I was using Unofficial_StockJB_XU_V6 :good:
I tried charging via a wall charger for about 7 hours now :silly:
i'll try to charge with a USB charger connected to my pc.. Fingers crossed.. BTW
How long should i charge it i mean.. Do i have to wait for a sign?
(Like, the red charging light from the notificaton LED)
(the Red LED just turns on when i plug in the Wall/ USB charger and goes off after 10-15 mins)
or would the phone turn on by itself?

How are u supposed a flash a new kernel unless u get into fastboot...

Remove the battery and leave it that way for an hour and then press and hold the power button for 60 seconds (without the battery)
and then insert the battery and try to enter the flashmode and report you might get it if it is not hardbrick.
prepare the stock rom in flashtool before you try to enter the flashmode in your phone....:good:

[Q] What does three red led blinks mean?

Hi all.
My phone seems to be broken. It's almost completely dead. When I press the power button the led blinks red three times. When I connect it to power it blinks red once every other second. Anyone knows what this red blinking means? I'm sure it's a code for something...
I've tried removing sd and sim and also disconnecting and connecting the battery cable with no result. Anything else I could try or is it just a matter of sending it away and being without phone for some weeks?

Battery is completly drained. Charge it about half an hour and should work.
Yeah, I've been pretty scared too when this happened for first time to me. It is really weird behavior. Atleast it is working again.

Yep, you're right. 20 minutes and the phone came alive.
Is it just me or did they completely miss this out in the manual? Could have been worth mentioning if you ask me...
/Daniel
i've had this too... is it ok to charge via a PC or does it have to be directly from the charger?

I guess its the same but charging it via the usb will take more time to get it alive again
HELP
my phone can´t charge anyway.... i let it charging in the wall during all the morning and "nothing"... even a minimum led light...
so i connected to the usb in my pc and the led started blinking once in each three seconds...
blink + 1 + 2 + 3sec AND REPEAT
so... i let it in usb for maybe 40 minuts... and.... nothing again... nothing changed and the led continuous to blink at the same way.
so, i tried to plug again in the wall, and no led light, but suddently led blinked this way:
blink / blink / blink + 1 + 2sec and repeat three times so stops, no more lights, and it happend again if i tryied to power on the phone...
and now, nothing happens.... no lights... even i fi try to power on, even if i plug in the wall...
mini pro is dead.
i don´t know what to do
tried pressing home + power buttons for minuts and nothing
tried pressing back button for minuts and nothing
tried to connect to PC companium and nothing, no phone connected
tried using SEUS but it can´t connect to the phone as it has no battery charge
any ideas.... please?
and let me know... is this any issue from the ROM? i just installed CM7Mini V7... it´s the first time i had the battery drained... so i ask... if there is a way to awake my mini, will the same issue happen again ????? I can´t forget the battery draining?????
HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLPPPPP
3 blinks mean not enough battery energy to boot. Maybe your USB port is just brocken...
Try using FlashTool to flash a stock ROM to see if it works, because with SEUS first you have to connect your phone to be recognised and afteerwards updated or repaired. Maybe FlashTool is the solution...
I have made a post with instructions and links to flash with FlashTool. Just search for
2.1.1.A.0.6 GREEK .ftf
Another possible solution is what guys have mentioned above... To let it charge while it seem dead and it'll be alive in some minutes.

(you probably meant no offline charging)
It really doesn't matter... I have tried almost every single ROM. And dryed the battery completelly, but I was always able to charge it.

I dont know what was wrong but phone now works like a charm. I dont have that phone but my friend does and it didn't happened again
I got same problem and tried charging my phone but it didn't work. Please suggest me what else I can do.
Not sure if this did the trick, but after I had the battery out for about 5 minutes, it started after inserting back.

Can you please switch off the phone and then try charging, just to see if the phone is being turned on automatically, which is the natural thing to do. Also check if the usb is being recognized when connected to a PC, to make sure that your cable is not broken.
Regards
E
Don't worry dude... same happened with me... ders nothing to worry about..
First of all.. remove battery for 15 mins... den put it in.. plug the power cable... DO NOT TURN ON....
The green light will glow... wait.. wait... the orange light must appear after 2 mins.. if not... just wait for it... it will go on...
I think it is caused when battery gets extremely empty... maybe... but it worked for me...

[SOLVED] Stuck at zero battery in AOSP ICS Android 4.0.3 Alpha v2

Hi
I accidentally discharged my phone to zero percent.. usually i charge at 5%.
I'm using AOSP ICS Android 4.0.3 Alpha v2
Now when i connect phone to charger sony ericsson logo comes n goes and phone is not charging.. no LED is lit or blinking.
same happens if i connect to pc or just press power button when disconnected.
pc doesn't show any device connected
I think the rom doesn't support offline charging.
Problem is i don't have access to any other sony ericsson fone that uses same battery so that i can charge my battery
Can someone please suggest a solution?
I have no idea. Buy a new battery and keep in mind that alpha versions are not to be tested in unusual situations.
Did you give it a try to power on while on power line? If you can get into cwm you may change some scripts some dev could provide you for offline charging.
Does it charge in flashmode?

it was an accidental discharge.. i got a call just before i was going to charge and battery dropped to zero.
btw nothing happened when i tried to connect in flashmode.. no led lit.. n same logo loop happening.
and i did try to power on while on power line but no vibration and no effect

the only way is to charge the battery from any place or in service centre and go back original firmware
yes, maybe the rom used is not fully optimized for your phone.. try reflash back to the original FW.
thank all for replies..
the problem solved though i'm not sure how..
i left it on charge for 4-5 hrs but of no avail..
i also tried connecting it in flashmode several times but no use.
but this morning when i tried switching on the phone while disconnected it switched on and showed battery 3% , I quickly put in the charger lead and its working fine now..
don't know how.. does battery recover 1-2 % .. no idea.
anyways thanks..set the battery warning to 15% to avoid same problem again

[Q] Phone wont turn on

Hi all.
The battery on my SXS got down to 3% tonight, i went to connect the charger and the phone shut down on its own due to low battery. I connected the charger and its not charging.
Its been plugged in for about 20 mins now.
Is my SXS dead?!
I have tried another USB charger and tried it on my PC's USB port and nothing at all from it. It wont charge. No charge light and it wont power on.
Did u try the power button with volume up combined together to power up?
I did now and it worked!.. wow lol

[Q] Question about x10's battery problem

So today, I am trying to wake my x10 again one more time and I try to plug my old x10 to the wall plug and it's not even charging at all. No red blink. Then, I try to plug to my PC and the red blink turn on, taking forever to charge. I did charge this morning before I leave to school and when I came home, it's still doing the same thing again. I don't know how I can fix or turn it back on like I did before. Please help and the charging problem too.

Did you try to wipe battery stats in order for the phone to refresh the battery percentage again? Did you try a different wall plug?

Yes, I did try the different wall plug. Also, I can't turn it back to recovery to wipe the battery stats because it start to take very long time to charge.

Hi sir, do you have time? I cant figure out what is wrong with my x10. When i try to flash those Generic Stock Rom, i get to have errors flashing. It aborts sometime when flashing system.sin and other sin depending on the tft file... i dunno what version my phone is but my pc detects it with flashmode. When im using Seus, it fails flashing in about 90% of the process... when booting my phone, just a quick vibrate with green flashes once. Do u have skype account? Hope u have time and can help me. Most of the links in xda our outdated. And i know my phone is outdated too. Thanks and more power
