Hi!! I need help with my Xperia U. I'm new to XDA, therefore I don't know if I'm in right place to ask this question.
It was working yesterday, but when I tried to install Rom(??), it won't boot anymore.
1. I rooted my XU.
2. I installed CWM with an app.
3. I tried to install stock Jelly Bean recovery from XDA. (I backed up. But now, my XU doesn't show up anything, so I cannot restore it.)
4. Completed installing file from zip.(In CWM.) I don't know I did this in right way, but I pressed the botton that says ''Install zips from SD card." I'm not sure if I need to flash something.
What I installed is this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/u-development/rom-stock-6-2-0-400-xperia-version-3-1-t2253486
5. I forgot to wipe data and cache...
6. It started rebooting.
But the screen won't show up. I don't know what happened..
I changed boot animation in the past, and deleted old one before, so is it my failed..??
It's not booting up anymore, and when I pressed power botton, the green light shows up on the left corner o LED bar.
I also tried to press power botton and volume up, a blue light shows up and it goes away in 10 sec.
Nothing shows up. Not SONY Logo either...
In addition, when I connect to computer, the computer doesn't read.
If I press volume up and put usb cable, the computer reads it, but I don't know what to do.
I cannot use flash tool because I cannot install Xperia P U Sola driver. It is keep saying ''Install failed". can some one know how to install drivers?
I need somebody to help me as fast as you can. I didn't unlock bootloader I think. But I rooted it with one-click method.
PS sorry for my bad English... I hope somebody can fix my Xperia U.
Thanks.

Can you give me the link of stock ICS rom?(Please know that I don't think I didn't unlock bootloader, but I rooted) I see many sites that have ftf, but I'm not sure which one I should download. I don't want to download any bad files to my computer and phone. Also, can you explain how to use Flashtool? I think I know, but I don't want to mess up again.

Flash the stock rom with flashtool, for that look in the rooting guide in my signature. There's how to root your phone on 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware and there's how to use flashtool and install the firmware.
Is your bootloader locked?
Didn't you make a backup?

Turn phone off, remove battery, wait 5s, put battery, hold volume down and plug cable. Keep holding until led comes green.

Did you install the drivers from flashtool now?
Install flashtool, go to the installation folder>drivers and install the .exe (maybe your phone isn't included in the list, just tick everything which is offered and install all them).
Afterwards install sony pc companion and sony update service, drivers should be installed with it.
So turn phone off and while it's off hold volume down and while you hold it down connect the usb to pc. The led should turn green.
If it's red it could be battery isn't charged, so charge it. If charging doesn't work get a battery of a friend...
Well bro, proceed is said by mihahn, the led is red, just bcz you have installed extended stock Kernel, right???

That it vibrates is strange, normally you just hold volume down and connect. Don't power on or anything just press volume down and plug usb...
But if that's not the problem I haven't found something that may help you, yet

Did you install the recovery? Some comes with kernel and some installed manually. I only used the manual one before which originally made for acro HD but now also available for XPS. That, just tap the sony logo few times and it will goes to the recovery.

hey do u have cwm installed? have u flashed custom kernel? or advanced stock kernel, if yes then you just need to do is press volume up @ sony screen, when @ sony screen (assuming you have installed advanced ics), it will vibrate and have a led light then press the volume up.
if you havent installed i guess you need to do some reading on how to unlock and install custom kernel.

What is CWM and how to install CWM, How to stock kernal.
I have the same problem and I think it's because I can't install the drivers for some reason... I think Windows 8 already auto-installed some stupid drivers that don't work. Does anyone know how to reinstall the fastboot drivers?

Not able to go into recovery mode
Dear All,
I installed cwm recovery tool by following the steps as told in this thread using recovery installer for my xperia s (build no. 6..1.a.2.45).
I tried going into recovery mode by pressing VOL UP + button during bootlogo (sony) but nothing happens.. the phone restarts in its usual manner.
ive unlocked the bootloader via fastboot .. roooted the phone with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v17: method.
I just cannot fathom how to get into recovery mode so that i can install custom rom !!
any advice will be greatly appreciated .. thanks in advance
Please help me

If you have unlocked the bootloader, than download advanced ics kernel fastboot image, not the zip for cwm.. Then flash it in fastboot mode.. Then restart and enter recovery..

But your charging light turns orange? That means you should be able to enter fastboot mode. Did you try removing the battery, leave it out of the phone for like a few minutes to be sure.
Then connect USB cable with volume up, without battery in the phone.
Let me know what you get then

Should i be messing with the test pointers to get this undone via hardware..or i should stick to software manipulations using diffrent combos..i hve removed the battery 10 minutes ago,i guess all the capacitor power will be gone by now..so what next should i do..??

First off calm down and think clearly. I hardbricked my S but revived it. First off the recovery should be related to the kernel. Put your battery in and hold volume up and power for ten seconds. Then let it chill for a few minutes. Then try and enter fastboot so you can flash a new kernel. I have NEVER EVER found a phone that couldnt be revived from brick and I have rooted and modded at least 15 different models and manufacturers. It can be done, you just need patience. Fastboot mode is the way to revive a device and once you get the proper kernel on you should be okay. Just keep trying to enter fastboot. Dont run your battery out all the way though, since sometimes you can get it to low the phone cant charge and the charge mode is related to kernel.
I do have same problem, please help me.

Post your own thread instead of necroing an old one will help. Also saying what happened before the phone died will also help.
Anyway, hold vol up + power for 20 seconds and see if you can get it to vibrate.
If so, after the 3rd vibrate, quickly hold vol down, then jam the USB cable in.
You are now in flashboot. Flash a stock ftf and you should be fine.

I am now downloading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974430 stock ROM. can you suggest which kernel I will have to use to flash the boot partition with. and any steps I have to follow before flashing the stock ROM using flashtool ?
Background:-
I rooted my phone then unlocked the bootloader the official way.
Installed CM9. worked fine
Then I wanted to back to stock ROM (for some xyz reason)
I got a vodafone image and recovered the phone by flashing it but touchscreen was not working.
I think I have messed up a lot and now I cant get the CM9 working also (touchscreen doesnt work)
Touchscreen not working, is it a software or hardware related ?
I still believe if its software related it can be fixed somehow.
Thanks.

the ftf file includes the kernel, just flash.

Thanks. But do you think the touchscreen issue is just due to wrong ROM or could it be hawdware ?

It should be ROM issue, I remember seeing this problem in the arc forums too

we go from the basics
when leaving the sony logo, and vibrates, you repeatedly squeeze the button and volume down?
you followed some guide on XDA for rooting? you can put the link here to see it?

the error can be for anything, an error in the bat file CWM, a step that was omitted inadvertently etc.
I recommend you install the CWM with this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227
is simple to use and safe, just follow the steps indicated,download the PC version using the link mirror (it is the only link that work),open the zip and run RecoveX.exe accepting the conditions, choose the model of the device and the tool will download the appropriate CWM and install it, just follow the steps.
Have you installed recovery correctly. If there is a fastboot image it Gould be installed via fastboot.

If it's lock why have you installed this ROM which is CM10 based?
Run PC Companioin , click start under support zone, click start under phone / tablet software update, click the repair link, follow the instructions.

The repair does not ask to turn on the phon e it ask to connect in flash mode (volume down while connecting to USB).
I you have used the phone with it before it will remember it, if not you will get a screen to select the model.
I wouldnt be much of repair if it needs a working phone would it?
