Boot loop after OTA - Sony Xperia XZ1 Questions & Answers

Hi all, long time no see.
XZ1 here, clean, stock (yeah, boring, but it's new, from a relative)
The phone got the OTA Update msg --> Proceeded (Batt fully charged) --> Now on a Boot loop (14 secs, no pass beyond the Sony logo).
PC Companion won't recognize the device.
Any suggestions welcome.
Many thanks in advance.

Nevermind. Solved with Xperia Companion.

[Q] X10 Mini Pro Bricked - all "solutions" failed is there anything else?

I have managed to brick my X10 mini pro by trying to instal CWM Recovery, and now am stuck at SE logo screen.
So far i've tried:
1. Seus - it says my x10 mini pro is up to date and no update available
2. PC Companion - i tried the repair option, but in the end it doesn't let me repair
3. FlashTool - tryed flashing original kernel, new kernel, 1.6android kernel.... and after flashing it keeps getting me to reboot it, and activate debugging mode, which i can't because i'm still stuck at SE logo screen
4. Omnius - payed for a 1 day licence. I can flash it, but still nothing happens. I can't flash read my SE, and can't find any repair option in it...
Is there anything that can whipe it clean, and put the original stuff back again? Or any other solution?
P.S. I can't turn of the screen, not even with home+backbutton+power, only if i get the battery out.
I never thought the repair option in PC Companion wouldn't work if i ever bricked my phone, but ... as I can see for myself it doesn't .
Thank you in advance... hope to get it running, even if it costs me some money

X10 mini pro doesnt start :(

Hey people from xda im desesperating I bought this cellular 2 days ago and have been installing apps. The thing is that my mobile wouldnt let me install more apps because the memory was full (and i had app2sd installed :|) so i tried to install a new app2sd with xrecovery with an archive called update.zip
Then I restarted my mobile and it took like 10 minutes to start, it got stuck there at the SE white logo and when it started it was lagged, the cellphone answered to my taps like 10 seconds after
I tried with the xrecovery a format (the third option i believe) and when i restarted the phone it got stuck in the logo again, the problem hadnt gone
what can I do?
Very, VERY thanks
Edit: it turned on after 5 mins later and im trying to repair it with pc companion, i will post if it get solved but I dont think it will
Reflash it with SEUS(Sony Ericsson Update Service)! Or download the firmware you want and flash it with flashtool!
i solved it with SEUS, thanks anyway , and I found the problem, as before, I installed another custom zip and my phone got stuck again in the sony ericsson logo and when the menu appeared it was all laggy again, so the problems are with the .zip, any idea about how to solve this?

I have the same problem as you now. How do you solved it with SEUS?
When I start-up my phone, it alway come out the white Sony Ericsson logo and stuck there on and off. I can do anything. I went to SEUS to repair my firmware, also can't help as the PC companion cannot connected to my phone at all.
Pls. help :'(
I used pc companion, connected the phone and repaired it (flashing it with the same firmware it had), and then it worked perfect again, nothing went bad
I you haven't solved it.. I revived my bricked phone using flashtool today.
Had to go to someone with a window pc for it since i only have linux but at least got the mini pro back to live again. I flashed to SE's 2.1, then updated to the latest update via PC Companion.
Then I installed CWM and installed MiniCM7Pro-V6, which f#cking rocks imo

[Q] help my x10

So here is the story. I had z's cm7 rom on my phone and went to switch to oodies rom. this is where it gets stupid. i was not thinking and installed oddies rom before i flashed the kernel. So now my phone starts up and stays on the boot Sony logo. pc companion and seus wont perform a repair and says my software is up to date. The phone wont let me back into xrecovery and just stays on the Sony boot screen. i am able to get into flash mode for like 10 seconds but the phone keeps telling me to turn on usb debugging. i have no idea, any help would be great.
You are connecting the phone too early on pc companion.

edit: if somebody else will have the same situation...
i downloaded the generic ROM firmware from here and i flashed it, meaning i lost root and the phone returned to stock
then i followed the instructions to unlock BL

[Q] My Mini Pro is stuck on the Sony Screen

Hi guys,
I've tried to flash CM 11 based on kitkat maybe 2 days ago, but something went wrong and my phone is stuck on the SONY logo since then.
Everything I try to do, it's just getting me to the sony logo.
I try to restart it taking away the battery, Sony logo; I try to flash something else, flashboot does not see the device and guess what? Sony logo.
After a while the phone has gone in black screen and the led is blinking in red, so i guess the battery is down.. I go to plug it to the charger and... my old friend SONY logo!
I tried Linux, Windows, Flastool, SEUS, PCC.... windows only sees that something is connected on the usb port, but it does not recognize the device.
Is there something else I can do?
Thanks in advance for your help

Seeing how you're mentioning that your phone is stuck at the Sony logo, I'll assume that you haven't flashed the kernel provided at all and is proceeding with the stock kernel. Here's a few questions to see where you're at:
Did you root your phone in the first place? If you had, did you unlock your bootloader?
If answer to both is yes, can you please explain the steps you took for flashing Kitkat? All I can assume is that you might have erased your system and that your phone is stuck in a bootloop...

Rooting is not necessary for this process. Unlocking bootloader and installing the kernel are.
You need to install the provided kernel for CM11. Stock ICS kernel, with the Sony Logo, won't work with CM11

Xperia X10 mini dead? :(

Hy all....i lost my Galaxy S4 and i got my hands on a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini. First i wanted to put a custom rom on it with android 4.0...all i got was a boot loop. Then i wanted to put the stock rom back, it failed, and the phone now won't turn on at all, i can't even get into flash mode, nor recovery. My pc no longer recognizes it! I tried several things, but the problem persists... If i put my phone to charge, nothing appears on the screen. Does this happen to anyone before? I think it's dead forever . I will try to charge it for an hour or two, and i'll see what's going on. I accept any help and opinion!
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my english!
Edit: I went for a few hours of sleep, now when i connect my phone to the pc, the red led finally blinks, but the pc can't see the phone at all. Can't even get into flash mode...any advice?
Edit 2: I put the phone in to the wall charger and now it seems working (boot loop) but at least its not completely dead, i got my hope back!
What did you do next? Have you flashed it? How?
