My Z2 just died. HELP. - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I've been using my phone as per normal, and it suddenly switches itself off and wont turn on.
If I plug it in to charge (the batter was at 40%) I just get a blinking RED LED.
Any help / ideas guys?!

Try to press volume up and power in the same time. If it vibrates 3 times it should start normally...

Hi Fenix
Have tried that with and without a charging lead connected and no joy. The red LED just continues to blink.
Have also tried, again with and without charge, to press the red button next the sim card slot and no luck.

How about volume down and power?

Same result.
Planning to leave the phone OFF charge all night and see if that helps, and then maybe do the opposite and keep it ON charge for a few hours maybe.
Any other advice?

Have you tried a system reset
(you can use sony PC companion to do this)
(repair device)

I have this same problem.
I have reset and re installed the rom via pc companion and same problem.
Basically the phone will not charge via the magnetic connector at all.
if you switch off the phone it will not stay off, it keeps turning its self back on again and boot looping: displaying the sony logo, then off, then sony logo again.
If you hold the power button down for 20 seconds whilst on a Sony logo, the phone boots to the experia logo and boots normally.
Problem is the phone will NOT switch off and half the time it wont come back on. Its basically a lottery on whether the phone will come back at all.

Update - managed to get the phone switched on after leaving it on charge all night. Had to hold the power button down for 30 secs to get to my home screen as otherwise it was just looping to the Sony logo.
However, now, the phone is not charging - it detects that a charger is connected but the battery level is not going up and the LED is constant orange.
What to do?

I would flash a.2.69 firmware if you don't have it already.

I'm a newb with these things - is there link for how to flash?
Not sure if it makes a difference but this phone is from Vodafone and I believe they've locked the bootloader or something similar?

Also noticed that the phone 'thinks' its still charging even without a charger connected - and the orange LED is constant.
Looks like the battery is kabooshed?

I think u should give the phone in for warranty.

Adding to the above.
Received my Z2 on O2 onFriday 2nd, Tried charging it this morning and red charging light was on then started flashing.
That was trying to charge via a usb cable to the magnetic contact.
Re tried using standard usb cable.
Will not start regardless of what I do, on button, on + volume up, on + volume down.
Trip to O2 after work tonight to take it back.
May be a problem with the magnetic charging system, somehow shorting something out, for me anyway.

Same here, Need to return it to T-Mobile.
Same issue,
Went Off, never to be able to turn the phone on again.
When connected to the Charger, the red light blinks faster.
When connected to USB red blinking led, blinks slower.
Does not go 'On' anymore.
Recovery from pc compannion does not work.
The Update tool send by the sony technical suppport also did not recognise the device.
Windows does not recognise it.
Volume Up + power does not work
Volume Down + Power does not work
Volume Up of Down (phone turned off) connecting with USB does not work.
Red button next to the sim card does not reset the phone.
It is a Brick now, hope sony is good and replaces it with a NEW one.

I need help .. i was normally use my sony z2 d6503 and it turn off itself and i cant open it even if i put it charge only red led no logo no charging logo .. all black ..

[Q] My ZU wont switch on. Red LED

This morning, my Z ultra died on me. It wont start, no vibration, no use pressing vol + power buttons and the red switch. I was neither rooted or bootloader unlocked.
When I tried to connect it to my laptop (Windows 7), its shows as a USB device. The red LED flashes up, the computer finds it and then lets go of it again. Again in a few minutes, the red LED goes up , the computer makes the connection sound and then the red LED goes off again. This cycle goes on and on.
I cannot use SEUS, Flash, Fastboot or do anything. I have checked various forums and apparently I have not hard bricked the phone as the LED still works and the computer recognizes the problem. But no one has given any concrete solution.
When I connect it to the charger which came with the phone, the red LED pops up and then goes off again. I dont know if its charging. HOWEVER, I have used another Chinese Travel Charger, and then the red LED stays solid as if its charging. I dont know what it means.
Please help. I spent a lot behind this phone. I dont want to be left with a brick
It's not an issue if it's completely stock is it? You have your warranty, but i understand that i sucks to have it shipped in for repairs for god knows how long. I had a similar issue some time ago, but i'm bootloader unlocked and what not, so that was pretty easy to fix. You're completely stock though, so it's a little harder to do anything.
What happens if you hold VOL UP when you connect it to your computer? Does a blue LED light up? If yes, does it stay on, or does it disappear? What happens if you hold VOL DOWN when you connect it to your computer? Do you get a blinking LED and then nothing? That's normal, and it's going into Flashmode. If you can get it to stay in Flashmode you'll be able to re-flash a ROM in Flashtool. But be 100% sure to have enough battery, or else you'll be in danger of hard bricking it.
So..
- Plug the wall charger in and charge it for a couple of hours (2-3 hours)
- Try to kick it into Fastboot (VOL UP when you connect it to your computer). Look for blue LED.
- Try to kick it into Flashmode (VOL DOWN when you connect it yo your computer). No LED.
Hi LordManhattan. I dont have any warranty as I brought it from a local reseller .
Whether I press Vol UP or vom DOWN when I connect to the laptop, a red LED pops up, there is a connection sound and after that the red LED goes off and and there is a disconnection sound.
If I leave the phone connected with the computer, the phone gets connected after 2/3 minutes, there is a connection sound and then there is a disconnection sound again . Any clue what I can do :crying::crying:

just a small note or two:
Flashmode the LED should go orange, then blue then off within about 1second then it is in Flashmode
To get into either of these modes the phone has to be powered fully OFF, press the red reset button before charging to make sure, then again just before the above steps.
It sort of sounds like a corrupted loader

Have a good read of this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
It would suggest that the battery is flat. Let it charge in the wall plug for a few hours and see what happens
I have let the phone to charge overnight with the charger that came with the phone. As I said before, with that charger, the red LED would turn on and then go off again. I will hopefully try the Chinese travel charger tonight with which the red LED remains solid.
The funny thing is , the phone had about 80% charge when it died. This is so weird :'(

Have you tried the reset button under the microsd flap? Press and hold for 3 secs.
I did read another user had an issue where the screen blanked for around a day, he left it plugged in and came back to it about 6 hours later and it was fine again.

It's a battery issue most probably. I guess it doesn't show anything. Is your battery removable?
I still have not opened my phone. I am looking at all the other options first. If everything else fails, I guess I will have to open my phone

Warranty exists with Sony for first year, no matter where it's bought, very true.

+1 contact your local sony, i had a similar problem, no fastboot/flashmode. locked bl/not rooted and my led only flashed red and occasionally solid red then nothing. plugging it into computer continuously played the disconnecting sound.
most likely hardbricked.
i also purchased my xzu from a local BST but as long as you have your imei, contact sony and theyll tell you if you have warranty. they required me to send in proof of purchase as well but like most say "play stupid" ( i said i received it as a gift and they said it was fine)
i got a brand new XZU after a week and a half sending it in.

Thank you! One or two years ago my Z Ultra's screen cracked and I got a new phone. Decided to use it again, purchased a new screen and replaced it myself today. When I tried to move to AOSP (had root, bootloader unlocked, backup of TA partition), the phone bricked. No SONY logo, nothing. Did what you said above, Xperia Companion recognized the phone in flashmode and is now downloading the newest stock rom. I was so afraid of a hard brick, that living with latest stock without root doesn't seen so bad now hahaha
Hey Friends, I have exactly the same issue. The red led just flashes up for a couple of seconds and this cycle continues. My battery was a bit swollen up and the back glass cover opened up a bit. Still battery was working fine. Two days ago I tried nougat aosp on it and after leaving it idle for 2 hours, it was bricked. I can enter into flashmode and flashed stock LP as well as KK but it does not boots up. Is it definitely battery's problem? If yes, where can I buy original or near original battery for it?

The battery is dangerous and should be removed. Be careful because the battery can burst into flames if the bloated cell get punctured.
Use tools with caution and take your time.
Lipo cells expands as a first safety trigger. Instead of going strait to venting or venting and burst into flames.
Its a safety feature if they are charged with too high current or if the cell is drained below its 2,22 volts and is brought back to life with a normal charger that puts normal current on the cell. Then even 400mA in this scenario is way too much current to start charging a drained cell with.
But the battery should not be the issue that your phone is not booting. How did you flash stock rom? With Flashtool?

Sounds like it could be a corrupt bootloader?
Things to try
Press the red 'off' button beside the sim card, then charge in a A/C charger for several hours, then see if it will power on
Do the above but dont power on. hold down the volume down button while connection to a PC
Do the above but press the 'red off button' while holding the vol - button while connected to the PC
These last two we want the LED to turn blue for 1/2 a sec then go out (Flash Mode)

So what i gonna do?
The only times I've seen a blinking red LED (with and without a cable plugged in), is when there are issues with the bootloader. I've accidentally locked my bootloader while being on a custom kernel a couple of times, and I've gotten this exact behavior.
What was the last thing you did with your Ultra?

I didn't do anything. My phone no root and locked bootloader. And now the led is continuous (red led, yellow blinking) when i'm charging. cannot do anything with it.
Sorry my English not good.
I would go to a service center, if i were you.
Yeah, I would probably send it in for repairs too since I can't really tell what's going on.
Yeah i already send it to service center

[Q]Screen will not sleep while charging

I have a problem after trying out a magnetic charging USB Cable but my wife accidentally connecting it the wrong way :crying:
My phone turned instantly dead with red LED coming on. I put it on wall charger and was able to restart after 4 hours of charging.
After disconnecting the phone from charger the phone went into a bootloop showing Sony Logo and black screen. Forced shutdown and was able to power on phone.
Now this happens:
My phone keeps waking the screen when it is being charged (the screen timeouts and turns off before being turned back on again after a few seconds, showing the lock screen), even after i switch back to the standard USB charging cable (charging directly to the microusb port). I have checked developer options and keep screen awake when charging is not ticked so that's not the problem. Turning off screen using power button brings up lockscreen.
Additionally, my phone is not able to be switched off. When i switch off, it will enter into a sort of bootloop where the phone will spontaneously turn itself on showing 'Sony' screen > black screen and it repeats this cycle. The phone can however be turned back on during this bootloop if i press and hold the power button while the screen is black.
I have initiated a software repair with PC Companion and also tried flashing a FTF with flashtool both of which still don't fix above behaviour.
Any ideas on this???
Phone is still under warranty so no problem but wanted to hear your opinions first.

The cheap magnetic cables are poorly designed. Not Sony's fault.
Yea doesn't Sony's official magnetic charger work both ways?
Are you using the official magnetic charger or a third party?

I bought one of this magnetic cable in Amazon but yesterday I put it in wrong way ... now I can't charge with usb, it's impossible to use phone connected to pc (all apps in use force closed after blinking) ... and I can't return to seller cause it's the only possibility to charge now grrrr
I flashed stock rom, same problem, repair center send me another phone.
This does not help - but as I read through this thread I'm very disappointed by the product design from Sony in this case. How can you develop a custom charging connector on a consumer device that damages the device if you plug it in in the wrong direction?
Sometimes I'm amazed about Sonys product design and sometimes I wonder how big and obvious mistakes they make.
Sad I have the exact same problem now... And my phone only has international warranty. Not local one.

Xperia Z Ultra unable to boot

Few days ago, i wash my Z ultra under the tap like i normally do with all the flaps closed . Soon after, my vibration module stop working . I thought it was some error on the application and ignore it. Waking up the next day to find that the battery is flat and proceed to charge it. Saw the red led light up and thought that it was charging and left it be for a few hour. Came back to proceed to on the phone but it just blink 3 time and the phone never boot up.
Tried all the method take out moisture for the phone as it might be due to water sipping in the phone but to no avail. Anyone have any idea on how to fix it as i feel kinda lost now...
Gotten the phone from my friend who rooted it to GPE so i think there is no more warranty.
Any help will be appreciated.

No it does not vibrate . When i try to plug in the computer the first time, it say input driver has been successfully installed. After that when i replug in nothing pops up.
What about flash mode or fast boot mode? Have you let it sit out a day or two not plugged in? I would do that as well. Let everything dry inside.

Tried the rice method, hairdryer method to get the water out. Plug in for a full day to the wall charger . When i connect the phone to my computer or power now, only shows a red led. When i tries to boot normally or into recovery, led flash red 3 times and stop, no vibration is felt. Since i unplug from charging, i cant even see the red led when trying to boot .
Try this. Connect phone to wall charger 1st. Press and hold power button and the volume up button at the same time for 10 second. You should feel 3 vibrates. Let go and let charge for more than 2 hours. Then connect to computer and repair/reinstall with pcc. If all that doesn't work then do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646405

Let go and let charge for more than 2 hours. Then connect to computer and repair/reinstall with pcc. If all that doesn't work then do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646405

I tried that ytd and it dint work, my z ultra wasn't brick as i was using fine before i wash the phone. The water damage indicator remains white so i am not sure whats the problem with it. pcc doesn't detect my phone at all .
I'm sorry sir. I don't have any more solutions other than just let it sit for a day or 2 and let everything dry inside. In the mean time see if you have warranty on the phone. Look and see when your friend bought the phone if under a year it is covered. Just play dumb. Don't tell them you washed iy.

[Q] Issue with Sony Z2 (red light notification blinking 3 times)

Hello,
Can somebody assist me with a problem I have with a friend's Sony Z2. I'm not very familiar with this phone and I have an issue with one.
It had the screen replaced because it was broken and before putting the last screw I turned it on to see if it works. I needed to put on charge because the battery was 1%. It worked perfectlyand then I disconnected it from charge, removed the battery flex cable to mount the phone back and when I finished it, I tried to turn on, but unsuccesfully.
All it does now is, every time I push the power button, the notification light is blinking red 3 times. Nothing more. If I keep Power and volume up is doing nothing, unless I put it on charge (on charge and power+volume up is vibrate 3 times too). I have nothing on screen. Reset button (the one inside SIM slot) makes the phone vibrate 3 times. The pc detects the phone 1-3 seconds and then nothing, I don't see it in my device management. I tried with another battery and same issues.
Any idea how to fix it ?
Thank you.

Thanks for the answer mate.
It was 2 nights on charge and still nothing. Also the notification light remains red while charging ? It shouldn't turn green when the charge is complete
Did you check flex?

The flex comes with the battery. Since I tried a new battery, I guess isn't the flex cable.
Sadly that's all I can say
