my z5 Compact is taking forever to charge and even after I leave it in for hours, it still says it needs to be charged. When I unplug the phone from the charger and try to turn it on, I get 3 red lights. Holding volume up and turning it on only gives me 3 vibrations. Before this happened, I used the phone all the way till the battery shut down. After that, I can't get it to charge any more.
Sounds like you over-discharged the battery. You should always avoid using the phone to the point where it force shutdowns due to 0% remaining battery.
Try hard shutdown by pushing and holding the yellow OFF button in the flap for 10 seconds, then charge the phone for about an hour and try turning it on.
If that doesn't work, press and hold ALL physical buttons simultaneously (VOL UP, VOL DOWN, POWER, CAMERA) AND press and hold the yellow button for 10 seconds.
The phone should vibrate or something, I forgot, then charge the phone for about an hour and try turning it on.
Volume up + Power for hard shutdown.
Can you get into flash mode or fastboot mode?
Plugging the phone into your computer and entering fastboot mode helped me once:
So you disconnect your phone, do a hard shutdown to make sure it is off. Press and hold vol up and connect it to your computer. If a blue light shows up, at least the basic circuits and bootloader are ok
Keep your phone connected for 30 minutes and you should (well, might) have some charge again.
If you can get into fastboot or flash mode but still can't boot up, try reflashing your phone (if possible), esp. your boot partition.
try charge with QC2.0, adapter will charge device on 9v, its standar QC2.0, when your phone drain of battery until shut down, down turn it on. Your phone must connect to charger and wait untill 2%-4% of battery before turn on.
if charger fail, change your battery, dont force charge before IC power broken (dead)

I am running on a 5823 imported from the UK (i think). Is it safe to flash boot.img prescribed for the 5803.
Also, where can I find a collection of boot.img for the 5823? I am not really sure I am doing this right.
Re-writing boot in fastboot mode will only work if your device is unlocked, and although unlocking should happen in the bootloader it is not something I would risk with an already bricked phone. Maybe as a last resort thing.
But IIRC just keeping the phone connected to your PC in fastboot or flash mode somehow bypasses some of the charging logic*, so just leaving your phone to idle might give you some basic battery charge to start with.
If you can enter those modes: You can re-flash your phone with stock firmware using the proprietary flash mode (Vol-Down when connecting to PC, green led should show up). Search for 'Xperia Flashtool' and/or 'XperiFirm', there should be lots of information, these tools help you download Sony firmware, too. I would not flash an image for a different phone type, I guess there is a reason why they made 2 firmwares
If you still only want to flash boot.img (= only the 'boot' partition on the flash as a raw image), you'll need an unlocked bootloader first. Also, if you already have an unlocked bootloader, you probably have installed a custom ROM (why else do you unlock your bl?). To avoid any more confusing error sources, I recommend flashing exactly the boot.img via fastboot that came with your custom ROM and that worked until now.
*Most likely bc there is no kernel to optimize (read: mess up) charging. I once had a Z5C with more-or-less blown charging 'stuff' and I was able to charge it in fastboot mode as a workaround.
Three red blinks is, afaik, a status message for a dead battery. It has been discharged below safety limits, and is no longer safe to charge.

I've tried to install Cyanogenmod 9 on my Xperia Sola, I've unlocked bootloader official way, flashed kernel from this forum specialy made for sola (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28957468&postcount=412 This One), then boot.img of cyanogenmod 9 (FXP203) and...
When I want to do anything with phone, it just flashes my red led. I mean, that led is still on, when I press Power it just turn off. And when I try to connect my phone in fastboot mode, It don't react at all. Can I already throw it away through window?
I put it under a charger to see if it's just off energy, but i've noticed, that after a while, red led just turns off and that's all.
My god, help me or I'll be back on Nokia 3310
You've used the S kernel, not the Sola.

Flash boot.img via fastboot. To get in, hold vol up + power. Wait for 3 vibrations.
Hold vol up. Then jam the USB cable in. You should be in fastboot.
Alternatively, flash the stock sola ftf via flashboot.
Problem is, my phone does not react, it does not vibrate, just that red led is on or off. Nothing else. I've tried all of those combinations. I can't get to fastboot mode or anything else.

Happened to me (I use Xperia GO). What I did is (as mentioned above) - Hold the power button and Volume Up button for sometime (it vibrates once after a few seconds, do not leave the buttons - continue to do so and after a few more seconds until 3 vibrations) and then the phone switches off. Now, hold the Volume Up button and plug in the USB cable - you'd be able to get in the fastboot mode. Flash a stock kernal and that should help.
If your phone is completely down (no charge at all), then above won't help. Plugin the charger and and wait for a few mins (before the red light goes off - you should now have a good knowledge on when the light goes off!) and try then try the above step. Once the 3 vibration comes, remove the charger and go ahead with the flash mode.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
B.
Edit: By the way, I had my SIM Card and Memory card inserted in the phone when the phone was completely down without any charge. I don't know how, but it makes a difference with you try so (atleast in my case) with them.
If it does not vibrate, then it's a hard brick =\ You need the phone to be at least partially responsive to get into fastboot/flashboot.
Keep holding down. It should vibrate after 25 seconds or so.
Otherwise, you have to bring it to Sony and tell them their phone died on you.
Right now It dosen't even blink with Led. It's totaly down. I cant lock fbootloader, so I'm doomned. Hope that won't cost much...
Install Sony Update Service (SUS) and try to recover your phone from there.
Last shot here, but here's to hoping that the PC at least detects your phone.
Otherwise.... Yeah =\
If you unlocked your bootloader Pc companion will be useless for you cause it will not detect your phone,.,,
i think other way is to flash the stock ftf for you device using flashtool.... that wuld be the best shot for you...
please respond if this fix your problem
No, SUS will detect, but will refuse to flash. It will say "Phone has been modified".
Need to see whether it's a hard brick. If even SUS does not recognise, then bring it to Sony =\
None of the above works. It's just dead and sometimes flashes red light. PC Companion says that there's no phone connected. Hope I will be able to gain a varranty or I'll be on Nokia 3310. But I'm not verry cheerful about that...
Flashtool does not react when I plug in my phone in fastboot or flash.
Hey bro,
Its highly unlikely for hardbrick to happen to Sony phones by flashing a differnt Kernel when Flashtool is there Pretty sure that it ought to work, follow the steps below (Note that the order of usb cable connection is the most important thing as doing it wrong will not allow Flashtool to connect to the phone when its bricked ! )
First, try plugging it in to charger for a while to ensure that there's some charge. Follow up with the Vol and power Button to make sure its turned off. Then after that follow this procedure *exactly*
1) Prepare Flashtool and select the FTF. (Flashmode )
2) When flashtool asks yo to connect the phone, connect the USB cable to PC
3) Then, holding down ONLY the Vol Down button (No Power button, Note that ) connect the phone to the USB cable and in a few seconds, Flashtool will start flashing
I know you tried many variations but missing out on one or the other detail during your previous tries might have caused the lack of success Just try it and let us know what happens
Best of luck and hope you dont have to go to Nokia World !
Cheers
Nope, it's still not working. It just dosent detect phone. I'm pluging in, holding only volume key and I'm waiting 5 minutes - nothing happend.
Nokia 5530 for now, but come one...
Hi,
I am currently having the same problem (I have bricked my sola by flashing with fxp boot.img). After digging the internet I found out that you can start fastboot by:
1. holding all 3 buttons (power on, volume +, volume -)
2. the phone will vibrate
3. the phone will vibrate 3 times
4. release the buttons
5. hold the volume + button and plug in the cable
6. you should be in fastboot now (blue light on)
If fastboot does not work then do 1-4 3x. Good luck! Hopefully we will unbrick our phones

Lol things u get on the internet!!!
First there is no such key combination to start fastboot k so just dun break ur buttons in an attempt to start it ...
Steps 1,2&3 are steps to get ur device force restart and force shutdown and let me tell you one thing
step 1 is wrong it power button and volume + button. That's it first the phone will vibrate once for force restart and if u keep pressing it will bypass over to force shutdown which is indicated by 3 vibrations..

could work
I have a Xperia U and triying to port JB to it I briked two or three times.
I hold power botom and it vibrate and doesnt happen anything ok.?¿
The possible solution could be this(for my works)
Charge the phone like 1 hour for my doesnt charge with the animation but its for security.
With the nest steps you are going to lose all CWM and tweaks and apks but personal data still there.
You have two options:
Flash a new rom with flashtool, but when you pluged with volum - you hold it for allmost all process becose for my i conect to PC and its goes quikly so i cant do annything.
If the phone is not recognised by Flashtool:
You have to repair it with PC Companion or Bridge for Mac, and also the same hold volum - almost all process.
For my it works, tell my if for you works:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
Hi,
it worked !
after doing the steps I have posted earlier I managed to flash my xperia sola with the right boot.img (the one from fxp pepper) and install fxp via CWM. Should work for you too.
One tip: you have to remove the assert from fxp installation script.

@op, your battery is dead and isn't accepting any external charge. Try replacing your battery with a charged one. That is if sola supports user replaceable batteries.

Hey guys,
I had purchased this phone awhile back in 2012 and The model is: XT912. I had rooted it and installed a Custom Rom (Black Widow). The reason why I stopped using it was because I had a cracked screen so I upgraded to a different phone but having alot of issues with my new phone. So I decided to replace my screen for my Droid Razr, but its been awhile since i've used it and been experiencing issues of my phone not booting up and looked online for multiple solutions but no luck.
Issues are:
- Phone needs a USB Wall Charger to be able to be turned on, battery is charged fully but when I unplug my USB Charger, my phone turns off. When I try to attempt to do a fastboot session, I connect my Stock Motorola USB Cable to my PC and on my phone, it shows a white light. But when plugged in to a wall charger, my phone boots up but doesn't boot anywhere besides the motorola logo.
- My phone boots up, shows the motorola logo and goes straight to battery charge and it shows 0% then 5% then 100% sits there for about 3 minutes and then reboots.
- When trying to go into recovery, it stays on the motorola and i've left it there for 24 hours abd no luck.
I've tried multiple things, but its been very aggravating since I've been trying to look up solutions for the past week but still had no luck.
Please help =(

The white light means that your battery is empty,try this:
Booting from AP fastboot to charging mode
If the Device will only boot to AP Fastboot and it says Battery Low
Connect the phone/Device ato a Wall Charger (not PC)
-In AP Fastboot Mode hold Volume down& power buttons at the same time for +10 seconds
- When screen goes black...release power button
-Then IMMEDIATELY press and hold Vol - and Vol+ to boot to Boot Menu.
- In Boot Menu scroll down with volume down to BP Tools, press volume up to select
- Device should boot to Charging Mode with battery icon
- Once battery is charged, try flashing in AP Fastboot again
This will only work if battery charging Firmware is still present and not corrupted
If Motorola Device will not boot to Charging Mode, a Fastboot cable will be needed.
You can buy it or you can make one by yourself,look at the picture.
If you can boot to AP Fastboot mode use this utility to flash stock rom,here http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr/development/droid-razr-utility-xt913-jellybean-t2861798
If nothing works maybe your battery needs replacement...

I've tried the troubleshooting steps mentioned above but no luck.
What I remember is that, back in the day when I installed the ROM, I wiped everything, incl. the Recovery partition and I believe android version it was on was ICS. When I installed Black Widow, everytime i would reboot it, i had to turn it on a certain way, sort of like safe mode. I've tried it though but no luck
Also, everytime I do plug in a charger, It does show a charge of 100% but once I unplug the USB, it turns off and the only way to turn it back on is plugging the USB back in.
I've also created the cable you've mentioned, but it still shows a white light when plugged into a PC. I've already replaced the battery and the battery is brand new. Just replaced it yesterday.
Any other suggestions? Is there a way to fastboot it so i can install a stock rom with the OTA?
Thanks.

You can't charge the phone with the fastboot cable,it is for flashing the stock rom with RSD Lite when your battery is low.
Here is everything you need
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3023837
Download Motorola drivers,RSD Lite,appropriate sbf file for your region and flash it.
Oh,use Windows 7,not Windows 8

Ok, So I was able to get to the Boot Logo usuing HW Diag. and Boot AP and my screen would show safe mode activated, then it would boot up a logo and I believe its cyanogen mod. It has a Blue Droid with a ring circling around it, but then it restarts. Maybe if i'm able to boot it into safe mode from the beginning, i could start it up.

Power the Device Up in Safe Mode - DROID RAZR / RAZR MAXX by MOTOROLA
So I wanted to try the new android Oreo ROM for Xperia XA1 Plus but my version of software did not support the update (I think the original carrier has not yet released the update - I bought the phone from someone else so I'm unsure about the limits the original carrier has imposed).
Because Xperia Companion has not detected any possible updates I have decided to go with FlashTool. I have been using FlashTool with countless Xperia devices and It has never let me down.
Sadly, I think (or I'm sure) I have flashed a wrong rom - for G3423 instead G3421.
Let me describe the flashing process (after unlocking bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock"):
1. I have charged the phone to around 60% and plugged it into the PC. It was sitting in the TWRP recovery I have flashed before for 2-3 hours but It was connected all the time so I don't think that the battery percentage could've dropped.
2. I have downloaded ROM for G3423 with XperiFirm, the ROM description:
G3423_Customized GEL_1310-9253_48.1.A.0.116_R1B
3. I have switched the phone to flashmode (vol down + connected to PC) and flashed using FlashTool. Also I should mention that I am using Linux so no driver problems ever occured during the whole flashing process.
4. The flash went smoothly and FlashTool told me to disconnect and turn the phone on.
So after disconnecting the phone I have been trying to turn it on several times, but the power button just wouldn't react at all - no vibrations, blinking diodes etc.
When the phone Is connected to a charger or PC, a red diode shines constantly but nothing happens. Both adb devices and fastboot devices do not list the device.
I have tried several things to bring the phone back to life:
-holding power + vol up/vol down/both vols, and waiting for vibrations - no effect
-charging the phone for over 30 hours non-stop - the red led is still shining
-leaving the phone with two rubber bands on it - one holding volume button, the second one holding power overnight
-running FlashTool and preparing to flash, leaving rubber band on the vol down button and connecting the phone to PC overnight
-repairing with Xperia Companion - phone is not detected
None of the above had any effect on the phone, It is still dead.
Is there anything I can do to bring it back to life except sending it to sony support (and I do not even expect sony support to help me right now, after all I have tampered with the device)?
If It is required I have the required knowledge to open the back cover and disconnect the battery but maybe It is still possible to somehow fix the device without opening it?
I think that opening the back cover and disconnecting the battery cable for some time could help but I am not sure.
Did You tried with Sony PC Companion ?
https://support.sonymobile.com/gb/xperia-companion/#gref
I did but I think it will not detect my phone If it cannot enter flashmode/fastboot mode and has an unlocked bootloader.
Companion wants me to press vol down button and connect it to the PC and as I said vol down + power doesn't work

It happens to me on Xperia Z2 (old phone) i want my Z2 4.1 to 4.4, i kill my own phone by my mistakes when my phone turned back on i see red light 3 time, sorry can't remember anything.
because flash nand get corrupted.
you must read the instructions carefully, before you flash.
Don't go sony support or take sony shop because Is Too expensive to fix the motherboard and your phone is void the warranty by flash unofficial rom or tools
I am sorry for your phone :crying:
Hello friends, I come to report here a problem I'm having with my device.
It is not charging my battery, I thought it was a problem in the battery itself, I made the replacement for an original, but the problem was not solved. the device uses all the battery power, it stays at 0% and it does not charge, besides, it recognizes my SIM card, but there is no signal from the operator to make calls or use the 4G network, I did a lot of research I saw that it was a problem related to Software, regarding the CQA test, I saw several tutorials, where none succeeded, lastly, I would like to install a custom rom to see if the problem would be solved, but I went to do the bootloader unlock process, but when Fastboot displays the code and I enter the site of the motorola, it returns me with an error that I can not unlock the bootloader of my cell phone, and I need to unlock to be able to customize the android.
follows a video showing what is happening with my device.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17roum_XlzQ
sorry if my text contains errors, I'm from Brazil and I used the translator to write
Thank you if anyone can help me because I have the device stopped because of this.
Thank you!
Hi, had the same issue. What helped me was connecting
power cable, going to bootloader, from there navigate to recovery. When it boots to recovery, regardless if there is any, leave it for some time. After about 5-10 minutes try rebooting, and it might picked up some charge, then it should charge as normally but very slowly, cellular connection also appeared.
Last time when my phone went to 0% and after going through this procedure my phone was at 17% after charging in recovery mode but didn't charge in normal mode after reboot. I also needed to toggle some setting regarding CQA in bootloader menu. Then everything went back to normal.
I will do this procedure to see if it solves my problem, remembering that my battery is in 0% and with it connected in the device it is only displaying the lightning, informing that the battery is without load.
what settings did you make regarding the CQA?

My device does not hold 5 seconds on bootloader because my battery is at 0% I believe the power supplied by the cable in the charger is not enough to keep it powered on. and now?
Original charger is definitely more than enough to keep phone on in bootloader mode. Try to make sure that usb C connection is dust and grease free.
Regarding CQA mode setting I can't remember exactly, but that is second thing.
Maybe even 5 seconds in bootloader should be just fine to navigate to recovery.
I wish you good luck, i was almost desperate when it firstly happened to me.
i had the same problem. after lot of trial and error i found a solution.
connect to power source (wall adaptor/modo battery mod.) get into bootloader menu and wait for 5 mins pressing vol up or down frequently.
then select reboot to recovery. on red triangle screen holding power button press and release volume up button one time. you will get into android stock recovery
select option wipe cache partition. and select yes when asked.
keep charging the device upto half hour in recovery mode and then select option reboot to bootloader.
after bootloader menu appears scroll down to BPTools and select it.
Your Phone will reboot and you will get Network and Your Phone will also charge normally.
Warning: Do not let your phone discharge to 0% or you might have to perform all above steps again.
This method worked for me as well. I recently replaced the battery on my Moto z force droid but couldn't get it to charge and signal was gone, after trying several things the Bp tools worked great, thanks dude.
Hello,
New to the forum and all of this, so please go easy on me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S9+ (SM-G960F).
On Thursday evening, I went to the device and it was completely dead. It wouldn't turn on and I attempted to do power key/volume down and various other button combinations I found online that would normally boot the device. Obviously, I attempted to charge the phone, but the charging light did not come on yet the phone did warm up slightly as if it was charging. After leaving it plugged in for so long, a 'Downloading... Do Not Turn Target Off' screen appeared. It also states I can restart the phone by holding volume down/power button for seven seconds. However, when I do this the phone just goes dead and doesn't boot up. After plugging in the charger again trying various buttons, I eventually end up back at the same download screen.
I've read about recovery mode, safe mode etc but I am unable to access them using the instructions I've read.
Any help would be appreciated. Ideally I'd like to be able to access my photos/videos/messages on the device and be able to use it again.

Hello,
New to the forum and all of this, so please go easy on me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S9+ (SM-G960F).
