Hey all,
So my brother just gave me his Xperia Tab Z which he says he accidentally bricked whilst trying to flash firmware/root/unlock bootloader.
I've tried everything I can to try and fix it but I'm not lost.
Here are some facts:
The screen does NOT turn on at all.
The tablet shows a constant red light when connected to a power source
When I hold the power button, it shows 3 red blinks.
I left the tablet in the charger overnight.
If anyone can figure out, I'll be very grateful.
thanks,
Jay

Hold VOL+Power for 10 sec. Then reflash via Flashtool.

Hey guys,
I need heeeeelp!!!!
My phone doesn't turn on, it just shakes as usual when you press the power button and the green led blinks but it doesn't show any other response. The screen doesn't even light up.
Also when i connect it to my PC, it automatically goes into flashmode without holding the back button.
I've tried flashing with SEUS and Flashtool (different kernel's) and it still does nothing. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks in advance

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)

Maybe try to repair your phone via SEUS.

USB cannot recognized.
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
Hello,
I've got two tablets (black and white) with a cracked screen. After I ordered a replacement screen I wanted to assemble it to the black one.
After I connected the LCD to the tablet everything worked fine. But at one point the tablet turned itself off and is not coming back to life anymore.
The symptoms are as follows:
- When pressing volume-up + power-button nothing happens, not even a virbration
- When pressing volume-down + power-button also nothing happens, not even a vibration
- When holding the red-button (found near the SD-slot) nothing happens, not even a vibration
- When i plug it into a charger (either pc or wall) the led turns red, flickers some time, and then stays red
What I've tried so far:
I have one white tablet, that works without any problems. So I used its battery (~95% charged) and put it into the black one. But nothing changed
Is there anything I can do?

I disconnected and re-connected all cables.
I had the same problem. (but I don't repared anything). When a turn off (pressing the botton 2 or 3 seconds) the tablet dont start. I send it to the service garanty but dont see anything. Finally when the battery was finish I conect pushing Vol - a battery extern (turn on the red led) a later the charger and the table resucited.
Sorry my poor english
What I also tried is:
- Holding Volume + and Power to boot into fastboot-mode. The LED still remains red.
- Using a battery from another xperia z2 tablet (which has ~90%), and tried everything from above with no change. What's strange is that the the LED doesn't even light up when connecting to USB.

Hello,
yesterday my phone started to do strange things. It vibrated all the time, even if the phone was powered off.
Today the phone is not booting anymore. There is just the Elephone Logo, but it is not able to boot android.
Recovery Menu with Volume Up and Down is not working, too. And if you connect the phone with a computer, it seems so, that it do not get recognized.
Do you have any Idea?
If i just plug the wire cable without booting with power button, the screen is showing an black battery with an O in the middle. What does that mean?
Best Regards,
Christian
