Sony Xperia Z2 Extreme bricked! - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i have a xperia z2 totally unresponsive, no power button, no volume buttons, no red reset button, no power on any form but magnetic port, no testpoint function (testpoint connected to ground or plates or point near to upper screw or any other know ground point).
The whole thing started when i try to flash some custom LineageOS 16 for Sirius board!
I try to update TWRP from 3.0.2 to 3.3.1 and flash the rom with gapps for android 10. The rom in TWRP mode shows an error and stop flashing, then i try again with wipes and same error, i try gapps and same error, then i reboot to system and crash, good bye BOOT, SYSTEM and all.
No PC response too. It just power by putting into magnetic dock, just then the phone power on and stuck into SONY logo.
There is a form to get the phone back to life??
P.D.: Phone is bootloader unlocked with TWRP 3.0.2 succesfully installed. Works normally before try to install that Sh*t of rom. Stock Rom Android 6 (23.5.A.1.291), usb cable, buttons board and red reset button unresponsive.

Did you hear any sound from pc or see device manager refresh when you connect device? Or did you try another usb cable?
Try press red button when you see Sony logo then connect to pc with flashmod or fastboot (if it detectable first)

So You Flashed the rom on the 3.0 twrp?

Likely the USB port is dead and you have to send it in for repair.

My X10 mini was a brick (or I thought it was) because it was behaving like you described: the phone was stuck on the SE logo and it wasn't entering Flash Mode although I pressed the back key when the Sony Ericsson white letters were displayed.
Here is my solution
Open SEUS and select your phone. Click Next.
SEUS will wait for the device.
Connect your bricked phone via the USB cable.
Then you must access Flash Mode, at all costs.
SEUS, PC Companion and FlashTool can detect this phone only in Flash Mode.
Note: If your phone is resetting correctly (pressing and holding Power+Center) and the phone is being detected as an unmounted removable drive on the computer as mine did, it should be able to enter Flash Mode, no matter it has been already stuck for ages on the first screen with the white letters. My phone had enough battery charge to go through the whole process.
To enter Flash Mode with the Xperia X10 Mini I had to:
1. Perform a hard reset of the phone (Press and hold Power+Center)
2. As soon as the phone vibrates, release both keys. Phone will restart.
3. The white Sony Ericsson logo will be displayed.
4. Press and hold Power+Center and immediatly the Back key (the three keys at the same time)
5. Keep the keys pressed until the LED turns green.
After doing the correct sequence and entering Flash Mode, the LED turns green and the screen turns completely black. SEUS detected my phone at this point, downloaded the original firmware and installed it automatically.
do u have trick for my problem here forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388476
my x10 just vibrate once and stack on blank screen.

When I use SEUS It keep saying "You have the newest software available"
I tried the hard reset and all. The phone now just won't start at all
Hi,
i got the same problem what you describe ive stuck at the SE logo and cant get into recovery and i cant use flashtool. i tried to do what you say in the first post, but when i press the shell root button, it says "wait for device" then its not responding, and i cant moce on to the next step... what should i do now?

X10 mini revived!
Hi,
The procedure described above works fine until you've the phone recognized by the computer.
Here's how It has finally been recognized:
1) Completely switch off the phone (Do not leave it with SE logo).
-You can do the either by removing the battery connector (be cautious) under a rubber on the left(not above) of the camera lens.
-OR when the USB is plugged in,
(1.1) press center + back + power button until power off,
(1.2) then release center and power button AND KEEP back button down(about 2-5 seconds) until green led lights on. remark:LED will stay green until you unplug USB or phone switches on.
(1.3) Unplug USB.
Your phone should be OFF now. SE logo doesn't appear anymore (Wait 30s to be sure)
2) Unplug the USB cable from computer and plug it in another USB port of the PC.
3) At this time, if you plug USB on your X10 mini, it should be recognized as a SEMC device (It has worked for me).
-Success? Go step 4
-Failure, retry (from step 2 should be enough) with another USB port. If you've tryied all ports already, I've no idea.
4) If step 3 is successful, unplug USB.
5) Start SEUS (update service program from SE), choose you phone, follow the instructions on screen. Remark: Even if it says that you've got the last version, there is an "Install" button available on the bottom right corner. Click it!
Hope it'll help.

[Sola] Cyanogenmod 9 bricked my sola?

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.
Download the FXP for Sola (Pepper) here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1876929
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.
Br,
Wermesz
@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.

Can not Flash Sony Ericsson MK16i (SI 1248-9084) using Flashtool

Trying to Flash Sony Ericsson MK16i using Flashtool. The phone is currently stuck in now well known - Sony Logo -> Xperia Logo -> Back to Boot Cycle and Sony Logo - Boot Loop.
I have installed Flash tool latest version (9.19.5). Have also installed Sony Xperia Common Drivers using Flash Tool's Driver.exe (V 1.8).
The phone was switched off; then the back button was held down and the USB cable connected to phone. The tool fails to detect Phone. The animation screen, one that shows the button to be used and the USB cable connection continues even after connecting the cable with BACK button pressed. In this case, the power LED turns green as expected.
Can not use even BLU or FAST BOOT. In case of BLE, the device is not detected.
In Case of Fastboot - The LED turns BLUE as expected when the USB cable is connected to the phone while pressing MENU button. But, even here, the phone is not recognized.
The Flash tool's DEBUG log does not show whether it tried to establish connection or why the connection is failing.
Any help/Advise will be much appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Ravi

Need help with debrick :(

Hi All,
I do not know how but I managed to do a hard brick or something else to my newly received Xpera tablet z2 sgp521.
After over-night Display break I received a fresh Exchange model, flashed TWRP recovery and wanted to restore my backup from previous sgp521 - after successfully reverting in TWRP the backup and pressing reboot BAM. only red led flashing.
No fastboot, no flashboot mode... nothing.
I tried to plug tablet on a charger 2.0A and therefore I assume the battery is full over 2 days full charging.
When I press VOL UP+Power the phone vibrates 3 times but I cannot get it into flashmode.
On a Windows machine I only see following device when connecting via USB:
USB HID Interface
USB\VID_05C6&PID_F006
I saw some Posts about serious hard brick Serial console mode but do not know how to unbrick the device now
Any ideas?
There is a tiny button under one of the charging flaps, push and hold that down for about 30 seconds

Sony XZ1 G8431 bricked

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

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've flashed eXistenZ before flash GSI in my phone. I thought GSI image would cover my origin ROM like eXistenZ, so after flash GSI image in,I flash eXistenZ again.

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 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!
