Try Volume UP (vol+)
i'v tried every thing
no action at all
this happened after i press repair TA in octopus_se_1.0.9
after that i couldn't go into flash or fastboot mode any more
any help
power off, remove battery, wait 30s, put in battery, start seus, prepare everything, then plug in device as requested in seus (while plugin cable, hold vol- ).
does that work?
otherwise try another PC and do the same.
whether the vol up and down works fine when you listen to music? just a test to work the upper and lower vol

drivers already installed?
if it is, you've tried to use usb apart from you? maybe the problem is on your usb

i think my usb cable is fine
i can charge with it and mount storage
it doesn't go into flash mode so the problem has never to do with drivers
whats happen if you just connect your phone to computer?Does it work normally?If yes you mast have correct drivers allredy installed and you must doing something wrong trying get in fastboot mode.Once again take out battery for 30sec. put it back and keep your device off.Press and hold volume UP and connect it to usb.Volume down do not get you in fastboot.
Hi guys,
I have mk16i(xperia pro), and installed latest lx cm11 build. Then, I tried dark's kernel. But I wanted to revert to the stock kernel.
Now at that point, i couldn't enter the fastboot or flash mode anymore. The OS running w/o any problem. But i'm stuck with the dark's kernel(which is very battery unfriendly,10 hour standby)
When i try to connect the phone to PC while pressing menu(or back button) the LED blinks for miliseconds and the phone continues switching on normally (enter OS).
I know it is my fault to install nonstock kernel but I really need help. If anyone experienced this issue, it will be great to hear the advice.
Thanks in advance
Try taking out the battery for a few seconds, reinserting it, pressing the button for fastboot mode (I don't know which one you have to use for the xperia pro) and then you connect it to your PC while keeping the button pressed. This should work

Thanks for the reply.
I tried it many times. But no chance... The LED blinks then the phone goes into OS.
I tried to reboot fastboot via adb commands. Again same result. Directly goes to OS.
Flashtool also stucks at "Device will soon enter fastboot mode" nothing happens. Phone stays on...
Is it hw fault? I will be very disappointed if so I replaced its digitizer recently by paying too much money.) It was expensive when i bought it also... I cant stand buying a new phone these times... pff too many issues...
Sounds weird. I have made the experience that it sometimes helps to take the battery out, then keep pressing multiply and long the power button. Wait ~10 minutes. Insert the battery and try again!
Hopefully it helps!
Otherwise could maybe be kernel related. Try to flash another one (with recovery).

We are not able to flash kernel thru recovery in XPeria devices i think.
That is the main problem actually. I m stuck with this kernel...

i think you done it allready but better than have adead phone:
- re check if all drivers installed (android sdk with its google driveer, flashtool drivers)
put out battery , put in & hold volume down while plugging cabel in. (if led not stays blue, pull out abttery, put in & reconnect but hold other button like menu key) --> try all buttons
i cant imagine flashing darks kernel broke yr bootloader. theres sth wrong with your machine / setup / whatever.

If nothing works, you can still "emergency" flash a stock firmware with SEUS, or not?

Thanks for the answers. Yes unlocked bootloader.
Since the device doesn't boot into "flash" mode also, i am not able to flash ftf through flashtool or any firmware via SEUS.
I had managed to enter fastboot mode once!
Happened with USB3.0 port via "adb reboot-bootloader" command.
Still, I am not getting into fastboot again...
I will inform you, thanks guys.
EDIT: I did it once again thru adb in recovery and flashed a stock kernel. Let me see the battery drain is due to kernel or some hw damage.
I am sure hw is damaged...
Ultimately solved...
After i am able to enter fastboot mode via some funny method described above, i erased system partition and flashed kernel.sin of the official .587 ftf file of Sony Xperia Pro.
Now the device is able to enter flash mode and fastboot mode via normal ways...
Thanks guys...
EDIT: I dont understand how is it related to kernel? I thought that bootloader files are damaged which i cannot correct them.
There are many .sin files in the stock .ftf which i cannot flash any of them without flash mode.(i was able to enter fastboot mode only)

Guys please help. I am very confused now: When i connect the phone to charger(AC) when the phone is OFF, the phone tries to enter flash mode!?! Led blinks green then the phone continues to open and offline charging animation comes as usual.
Sometimes the phone connects the charger in flash mode! But doesnt connect to usb in flash mode or fastboot mode. I know it is a bit confusing but that is the situation.
Thanks...
so i was flashing existenz MM and i can't go to recovery mode, before installing it i have xzdual recovery installed, so i thought i can just flash it again (and ofc it was stupid because after that i just know xzdual won't work with MM) so it's bootloop even when i charge it, the problem is the battery died and it won't fill the battery, the phone keep restarting when plugged in with charger so it keeps draining the battery before it filled up, i can't flash it because of that, the question is, how can i fill the battery so that i can flash it using flashtool?
thanks, and sorry if my English is bad.

If there is no other way you can always open the phone and charge the battery manually(if you have the equipment to do that). I had to do that to my phone yesterday(my battery was so low that it wouldn't boot).

The phone should also be able to charge in recovery. Try that.
Btw. I recently flashed a Z2 via flashtool with an unplugged battery (usb power was enough), so you could also try flashing it now although it's empty.

Thank you for the reply,
but the phone cant boot to recovery.
so i should remove the battery and try to flash it without battery plugged in?
because i tried to charge the phone overnight with no luck, havent tried removing the case yet because im not experienced to remove them, is there any alternative that i should try without touching the hardware stuff?

I would first try to flash just like it is now, without opening the back cover.
Opening the back panel is the last option I would consider, but only if everything else fails.
The thing with opening back cover is, that you will most likely damage you back panel, and you will have to order some new, fake raplecement + the phone won't be waterproof anymore.
And if you can get your phone into fastboot mode (and you've got unlocked bootloader) then just use "adb fastboot flash boot boot.img" command to flash some kernel with recovery.

Have you tryied to plug it in and then press power and volume up continiusly until you fell three vibrations? i think this is for reseting the phone if you continue to press until another vibration it will shut down and maybe then it will charge.

i tried the vol up + power only one time until it vibrates 3 times for the first time and its off, but when i plugged the charger its continues on bootloop cycles thus battery not filling up.
i guess im gonna try until another vibration and see what happen.
and thank you for the link, im gonna give it a try too later, im not home right now, cheers.

It won't probably charge in fastboot/flashmode.
But it's very strange that the PC won't detect your phone when trying to enter flashmode.
Because, as I said earlier, I was able to get Z2 into flashmode without any power (battery taken out).
There should be some change in device manager when you connect the device.
Are you sure all the drivers are installed on your PC?

Hello guys, i have sony xz1 g431, i bricked my phone when i try to install another rom of another device via twrp. Now my phone no light when connect to pc, no light when charging, flash tool doesnt recognize my phone. When i connect my phone to pc it only shows QUSB_BULK on my pc. I think it lost fastboot or something. I try hold down button, up button or both when connect to pc but still no light and nothing happen.
Please help me fix this problem or atleast some good suggestions to solve this problem. I will really happy for that. Thanks :crying:
Just have the phone powered off, hold just only the volume down button and while holding it, connect the phone to usb cable to your PC.
It should enter flash mode (green light), where you can flash stock firmware via newflasher (or possibly also via flashtool, but I do not use that).
If you have the phone off, hold volume up button while connecting to usb, it should enter fastboot (blue light), which also may be used for some recovery, if the phone has been unlocked (or for the unlock itself).
If any of those modes are available, the phone should be possible to recover.

i have tried it but there's no light. I think it's dead :crying:
@Karl Einstein, have you tried both ways as suggested above?
Maybe you can examine what usb device appear (if any) in each of the described modes (tried to enter flash mode, tried to enter fastboot mode, tried to just plug the phone to usb without holding any button from power off state).
What happens if you try to enter recovery mode (twrp) - having your phone powered off, without usb connection, holding volume down and power, should enter twrp if you had it flashed before.
Do you get any vibration when hold the power button and.volume.key.up?

Well...I think your phone is dead...I'm really sorry to say that, but in this case, that is the only reasonable explanation.
Yesterday I flashed the GSI image, then tried to flash to eXistenZ, it just stuck in the startup interface. However, it can still enter flash mode and fastboot mode, I have no choice but to use the newflasher to re-flash the firmware, it will return to normal.
In general, Sony devices are hard to change bricks, unless the phone is a Japanese carrier's custom phone (generally can not unlock the bootloader, and can only flash some firmware).
I have seen users who have flashed CE firmware for the docomo version and then can't enter flash mode and fastboot mode.Unlike your device,her phone is totally dead...It can't be charged, and there is no prompt to connect to the computer.
If you can buy a motherboard from eBay or somewhere else,you can disassemble your phone,then replace the old motherboard.
Hope these helps.
Thank you guys for all your support. Finally i decided to skip this problem and i will buy a new device

Just a side note , why flash existenz on a gsi rom... As it is made for stock Sony only or did I just misread something..
I had the same issue before on my lenovo p2 it lost fastboot and download mode but the PC detect it as qusb bulk then Qualcomm USB h9008 I searched all solutions but no good I think it needs some kind of box to push the modes or change the mother board. So I changed to Sony instead of repair it

Sad to ear that...
I had the same issue with my previous Htc10.
As it was still under warranty, I have had to contact HTC support and told them that and OTA bricked it.
They accepted the issue and replaced the motherboard.
I was BL unlocked, rooted and custom rom when it happened and no issue with support as they had no mean to prove it ?.
If still under warranty try to contact Sony support and tell them the same story... Ota bricks my phone ?

I have the same issue. My sony xperia xz1 G8342 got sudden dead. (Before dead, I remember I disabled "Developer Mode"). Now its not response by any mean except charging sign when i connect to Power source or PC. Xperia Flashtool shows "device connected with USB debugging disabled".
So, How Can I enter flash mode or fastboot mode? Is My phone recoverable? Please Help.
Thanks
Yesterday I was struggling with my XZ1 Compact and came across this thread that gave me some light to get my mobile phone back.
I guess it's way late for Karl now but just in case, I'm sharing my experience. I was working on my device to get LineageOS 18, as I'm a total newbie with roms I followed the different articles that were posted on Getdroidtips for this particular case: Unlocked bootloader, flashed TRWP and installled lineageos. But then I realized it would be good to have Google Play for restoring my files and apps, but when tried to reboot into recovery mode to get Gapps flashed, Black Screen Of Death started.
After that
with the phone plugged to the pc it wasn't recognized as a device (so adb or fasboot where useless)
the only thing the phone reacted to was to press and hold power + volume up (either for reset or power off)
but no matter what, next boot again BSoD
Tried the Xperia Companion but it prompted that repair was not possible as bootloader was unlocked.
Eventually found this life saver

From there, using fasboot I could reboot the device back with the LineageOS. I was still having issues with recovery boot but I'll post that on a different thread.
Thanks again to everyone for sharing thoughts and tips!
hello,
I bought a CN version of gt, I unlocked the bootloader and changed the rom. Then I got again in twrp and pressed on reboot - then my phone bricked. It is not responding, and when I connect it to my pc, it connects and disconnects every 10 seconds while the cable still plugged in.
I don't know what to do, I spent 400$ on something that I can't use...
thanks.

Try to get into fastboot mode first . Your situation seems to be that the ADB driver is not fully installed
you can find it on google

hello,
I bought a CN version of gt, I unlocked the bootloader and changed the rom. Then I got again in twrp and pressed on reboot - then my phone bricked. It is not responding, and when I connect it to my pc, it connects and disconnects every 10 seconds while the cable still plugged in.
I don't know what to do, I spent 400$ on something that I can't use...
thanks.

try vol "down" +" power" button, if it'll go to recovery stable you can use adb commands
or
vol "up"+"down"+"power" (3 buttons in total) and when you see chinese letters just relesease them. if its succesful, you'll see bootloader menu

You probably only have EDL mode active. I think only MSM Download Tool will help you. However, but this is a paid service.
This is my opinion, but maybe someone more experienced should have a say.
Try to press three buttons (vol up- vol down- power) during 40 seconds aprox....
May only use 9008 mode.
I solved it. The only solution is to pay to someone who got msmtool.
This problem happens when you flash another rom through twrp on gt, it erases the recovery of the phone and then when the phone is trying to go to recovery it becomes bricked .
If you want to avoid it use the commands of adb and fastboot through the computer (not through the phone itself).
I paid 15$ to @hoangzk9 he solved the problem.
Big thanks.

As I know that realme gt dont public the flash tool so we need contact to the services to get they help.
Same with you, I have some problem when I tried to flash twrp to realme phone. No luck and my phone became hard brick. But you can send an email to eu services of realme, they can help without any paid.
Good to know.
