HELP! my Z2 doesn't open - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Please help me solve my issue with my sony xperia z2.
My phone stopped opening when I charged it last Thursday (with 23% battery) using my magnetic charger. I think I can still remember that I encountered an error on my laptop. I think something to do with the USB port.
After that, I charged my phone in a wall socket using a micro usb. But all I get is a blinking red light.
I almost charged my phone the whole day but nothing happened.
Fixes I tried:
- hard reset (pressing volume up+power button)
- sony pc companion
- allowed the battery to be drained for a whole day
I've tried all above but to no avail. Please help me. I just got my phone last August and I really love this phone.
Thank you in advance to you all.

X10 Wont start, Not recognized on pc. Can use Bootmode in wall socket

Hi everyone,
Some time ago my Xperia X10 suddenly got some error messages and i decided to just remove the battery and repalce it.
After i did this the phone wouldnt go further than the Sony Ericsson logo, so i pulled out the battery again.
After some time it wouldnt start up at all anymore.
I actually gave up hope untill a few days pack i decided to try connecting it to the pc once more.
when i tried to start in in boot mode (back button + connecting the usb) a red led started blinking with a 1 second interval.
So i tought if the led blinks there is life in it and i can fix it.
I fooled around with it a bit (note that my pc never really found the phone) and tried charging it in the wall socket.
When i try to start boot mode while connecting it to a wall socket a green led starts burning.
So i tought it might have been the battery, i ordered a new one wich came in today.
Sadly no help since the green light imediatly shuts down if i put in the battery wich has been charging for about 5 hours now.
Can anyone please tell me whats going on and if its fixable?
If you need anyomore info please ask because im sure i forgot some important stuff.
Thanks in advance.

I'm just trying out some more and found that:
-its not boot mode but just the green charging light comming up when i connect the phone to a wall socket without a battery
-there is no green light (so no charging?) when there is a battery in the phone
-with or without battery there is no green light when i connect it to my pc's usb (not enough power supplied?)

Xperia Z won't charge ... anyone else?

Have the Xperia Z tablet in stock ROM, unrooted, everything stock ... and a couple days ago out of the blue the tablet has stopped charging.
Even when I plug the USB cable in, the LED does not come up. Looking at Settings->Battery it shows a slim line under "Charging" only. Tried different chargers and different cables, same thing.
If I power off the tablet, and plug the charger in, now the LED lights up and the tablet charges.
As soon as I power on the tablet, the LED that was on goes off immediately. With the tablet turned on somehow it cannot detect the charger at all.
Tried rebooting the tablet a few times and didn't help.
Anyone had the same issue?
My next step is to use the Sony Companion software to repair it but not sure if it will wipe out my tablet ...

It's weird that it still charges when its off. I had a problem where it wasn't charging at all, and the motherboard got fried apparently, and Sony gave me a replacement.
I googled some, and people having similar problems as yours (on Sony as well as other androids) ultimately had to get their phone repaired/replaced unfortunately. For example - http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperi...Z-only-charging-when-switched-off/td-p/513665
I suggest you take a backup of all your data while this phone is still working!

I will wait hours for charging.
Anyway, do you know other solution? It's very strange it's bricked! I didn't flash anything new and cm11 was working well!

Sorry brimbi i can't help you any further than this, i'm not experienced in this field and only started a couple of days ago, this guide explains about soft & hard resets as well as brick symptoms, i hope it helps... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
If you're using cm11 you should be able to boot into recover right?
This happened to me today. Last night I left my phone charging on my PC through the USB port. PC was off, but USB is still powered. Phone was on.
The next morning, after I woke up I noticed that when I pressed the power button nothing happened. I plugged the cable off my PC, then back on, and the led was staying lit up red. Nothing when I pressed the power button again. No fastboot, nothing.
Finally, I plugged the phone using the original Sony adapter to the mains. It showed the Sony logo and it started charging. At least, so I thought. After a couple of hours, I checked the charging progress and nothing, battery was showing empty. So I tried to power the phone on while still charging. It booted Android and it was showing charging, but 0%. I powered the phone back off, it immediately started charging and battery progress was about 80%.
My guess is that somehow battery stats files were corrupted/deleted. Luckily the phone did not get bricked. I am on Android 4.0 ICS.

It seems XSola has issue with this. My previous phone which is Xsola did suffer from this issue multiple times though. On my ex-XU (too) never had this problem and in my current XP i've had once.

sony xperia z1 will not start after empty battery

My phone has remained switched on, when I went abroad, after returning after 20-25 days you try to charging , but not light is charging, try to connect it via USB to the computer and nothing again, not responding can-not to light ..
I even overnight on the charger and again nothing ...
Is there some kind of similar experience ... or know what it could be?
Thank you.

Phone is not recognized by pc, flashtool nor pc companion

Hi guys I'm looking for some opinion to point me in the right direction.
Bought a Z2 from Ebay as "parts non working" when I got the phone, tried to charge it but didn't charge, after some reading saw a comment from a guy sayin' "cut a usb cable and make some kind of wireless charger", did it and the device started to charge, well once charged turned on device, made the set up and started to download update after update.
Once ended unplugged from the homemade charger and plugged to my laptop (W7) and just made nothing, not even on my cellphone (No charging led, no notification). After some read tryied the pc companion method and guess what DIDNT WORK, tryied the flashtool method and same thing, but the thing I noticed is when try to connect the device into flashmode the green led turn on for a second and turns off almost instantly.
Also the battery is draining to fast, like 1% every 6 min even if Im not using it tought was the home made charger but 3 days ago picked a magnetic cable to charge the phone and battery drain persists, Im using a 2 A Samsung wall adapter.
You think it may be a damaged USB port, battery or both? I'm bootloader allowed yes, thanks in advance.
AWESOME
Admin, please delete.
Thank you.
