Hello helpers
My SGP311 had a problem with the charging port, after replacement by a new one, the battery now is fully charged but the tablet wouldn’t start!! The only sign of life is when connecting the charging cable, so the screen stock in blank just after the logo screen and the 100% charged battery screen.
I’ve tried all the ways to reboot it, but nothing worked, power + volume up, power + volume down, power+ 2 volume buttons or even disconnecting the battery!!
It seems like that the power button is not working! But even with connecting the power cable it’s not working!!
Any idea
Thank you

Try to restore it with xperia-companion or reflash with Flashtool.
Hi Rootk1t,
Thank you for your intention, actually I tried Sony companion but nothing worked, it is not even recognized by the computer !!
For the flashing I don’t know anything about it, is it easy? Is it feasible even the tablet is off and doesn’t recognized?
Thank you once again

If it is hardware problem, then Flashtool or Xperia-Companion or EMMA will not help you.
If the problem is in software, then installing all the necessary drivers for tablet and reflashing with Flashtool or restoring with xperia-companion will do the job.
P.S: It's ok for tablet to be off for flashing. But flashmode (VOL- and plug cable to PC) should be working for flashing or restoring.
Problem solved

Hello there,
Thank you for participating in solving my problem, I’d like here to explain what was exactly my issue after I solve it.
The problem started when I replaced the power port by a new one, before that everything was working as usual, so that’s why I didn’t thought for any hardware problem. So, I proceed to connect the tab to my PC but they are not responding (both).
Finally, I found the cause, or causes.
For the PC: first I didn’t use an original cable, and I had to choose the proper USB port i.e. USB 3.0 or something like.
For the Tablet: the power button was strangely defected, where it was working very well before changing the charge port!
Actually, it was a mix of multiple parameters that came together and made my problem.
I’m sharing here my experience for the gain of others.
Peace on you all.

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if I could pick your brains.
I have recently acquired an Xperia Ray that does't work, I was told that it had been dropped and the battery contacts were faulty.
I then preceded to take the phone apart to investigate and found nothing physically wrong inside.
The phone doesn't seem to be charging at all, When I remove the battery and press an hold the power button I get a vibrate.
Again, Removing battery and replacing, pressing and holding the power button and volume down gives a green light and vibrate.
Finally, As above bet pressing and holding the power and up volumes gives a blue light and vibrate.
I don't know any history of the phone I don't know the legitimacy of the "phone dropped" story, physically the phone is immaculate.
After some extensive googling I'm starting to think maybe a bad flash could be the culprit?
Thanks for reading.

Nothing really works on it, It seems totally dead besides the vibrations and led indications. I do occasionally get 3 red flashed too.

Hi,
I've plugged it in, got the solid green light but the PC doesn't recognise it or install drivers.
Do I need extra drivers?
When you install this Flash tool u get all the necessary drivers with it. They are located in the same folder. Unzip and install them when computer ask for them upon connecting it.
They don't seem do have the drivers for the Ray.

Just use unzip "X10_ADB_drivers", it worked for me.
Just manage to unbrick my Ray
Just an Update on where I am,
I haven't been able to bootcamp my MacBook as DiskUtility won't let me partition the drive so have been borrowing Windows Machines.
Whenever I connect the device to the machine, windows detects new hardware then proceeds to start installing the driver only to fail and say that the "Unknown USB device malfunctioned". When I enter device manager and go to Unknown USB device and re-install the driver to the one I point it to windows informs me that the correct uptodate driver is installed.
I'm at a bit of a loss at where to go with this now, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does anyone think that it could be a hardware fault?
have you installed PC Companion? the drivers for the Ray gets installed along with PC Companion
Update; Rangercaptain and 440bro suggested the power switch or the usb port may be the problem.
I dismantled the phone and got my ohm-meter, the power button's circuit is opening and closing as it should between pressed and depressed.
Furthermore I tested the usb port for conductivity at each pin, from the side of the usb cable that would normally connect to the pc all the way through the 'charging flex ribbon' to the phones PCB. all connections are good.
Editing this post as I try new things i find or the things i try that people suggest.
Currently my Note will not boot into recovery or it's ROM, I was running a version of Slimbean.
I can get it to go into download mode via the volume down + power key but I can not for life of me get any pc to recognize it via usb.
I have tried Odin, Adb, and Heimdall with five or six different versions of Samsung USB drivers, Version #'s 1.5.14.0, 1.4.6.0, as well as the drivers listed in the Note 'Super thread' ATT I717 v1_3_2200_0 and two other sets of drivers that did not have version numbers listed, but came from other XDA USB problem posts. I have also tried the Google drivers from the Android SDK.
I have done all this on two different pc's and different usb cables. I've read other problem threads about this and tried most of those suggestions I.E. Uninstall old drivers, reboot, install new ones, reboot, turn off internet, plug in phone. Nada, no sign of the device being recognized at all.
I've tried the 'adb devices' command while the device was in download mode, the command returns nothing.
the USB port still works so far as i can tell, if you plug it in to a charger or the pc the phone will try to boot like it usually does if it's powered off and you plug it in and the phone had been charging fine before this issue, so i've no reason to suspect a bad port.
I have however encountered this USB problem before even while the note was stock and functioning with it not being recognizable over USB, I eventually gave up and it's what caused me to install a ROM on it in the first place because i couldn't get the official android updates with Kies (they require a usb connection).
Would a USB jig be of any benefit in this situation? After searching through XDA forums and the like that's the only thing that seems like it may work but i haven't tried. I'm unclear if it will be of any benefit because the device can already access the ODIN downloading screen.
All in all I've been working on this for about 12 hours so far, so it's possible i may have forgotten something I've tried but i'll update if i remember anything significant.
Finally I'm aware there are two similar threads currently running on the XDA note troubleshooting forums,"Is my note bricked?" and "can't enter download mode" I am also watching them and trying anything that looks relevant but elected to make a new post as my problem is slightly different in that I can access the download screen. If you posted anything there that you think may have applied here, you don't have to re-post. I'll have tried it.
Your power button is stuck.

Thanks, I should clarify that the reboot cycle is not indefinite though. it'll give the boot vibration 6-8 times with a few seconds in between each vibration and then stop trying to boot. It also doesn't cycle every time, just occasionally. The other times it will give the vibration only once and then do nothing till you hold the power button down again as if you were trying to turn it on.
It will also stay in the downloading mode until i manually hold the power button down, so the power button is functioning correctly.

If you say so.
Take out the sim and sd card.
I have tried removing the SD card and SIM card as well. Makes no noticeable difference.
I can also add that the USB port still works so far as i can tell, if you plug it in to a charger or the pc the phone will try to boot like it usually does if it's powered off and you plug it in.
I can dismantle the phone and check the power button if you're fairly convinced that's what it is but it really responds exactly like you would expect. The press and return feels fine and the way the device responds to it also feels fine.
Yeah I'm pretty sure it's a stuck power button. If the phone is off and you plug in usb, or charger it should NOT startup by itself. If it does it's most definitely a stuck power button. So I'm guessing your phone is no longer covered by warranty?
Before you go tearing apart the phone try this first. Take off the battery cover and where the power button is you'll see a lil outline. Flick this area with your finger a few times. Flick it hard enough to mildly hurt your finger but not the phone. I had to do this for a while till I got a new note. If that doesn't help take it apart at your own risk.

It has always started up on its own when you plug it in, at least if it's out of charge. Of that I'm certain. I've had the phone a year and a half or so now. It may not boot up on it's own if you just manually shut it off and plug in a charger though. I don't recall ever trying that scenario directly. It could also be a functionality Slimbean added if stock phones don't do it.
I did just try your flick trick though, thanks. No change.
Just as another example on the power button, I can take the battery out and put it back in and the phone will do nothing until i hold the power button down a few seconds, only then does it do the the "i'm trying to boot" vibration.
Damn I was really hoping the flick trick worked for you like it did me. If you decide to take the back of the phone off, try flicking again anyways before you completely disassemble it. Once you disassemble it, there really isn't much you can do power button wise other than replace it. I'll attach a pic of the power button area for ya. I have one already torn down.
If it's not your power button, I wonder if it's your usb charger port on the phone.... That's an easier part to replace if it is.
I do feel like the USB port is a possibility, even despite my saying it appears to work. is it possible for the port to be damaged in such a way that it still allows the phone to be charged but not establish a data connection? When the phone went brick yesterday It had pretty much just finished fully charging. I had disconnected it from the charger used it a little bit, set it down when it still at about 98% battery life. Around 10 minutes later I got a text message, it made the god awful slimbean text tone (i hate that tone) I went to check it, turned on the display it then repeated the incoming text message tone about five more times in quick succession, locked up, and then died never to return.
I have had the phone apart before because i'm a curious cat, and didn't really mind voiding a warranty.
The only things that would make me skeptical of it being a usb port problem is. 1: It was charging fine and 2: the symptoms at least of the reboot problem itself are leaning towards a software issue the Slimbean install has never really worked great, and would crash and reboot probably twice a day.
Just because the button works doesn't mean it isn't stuck. I've only saved about ten phones by helping the owner to understand the cause of the reboots.
The fact that you already opened the phone increases the chance its the button. Because you said it rebooted on stock or custom ROMs eliminated software. Because your phone charges normally and is recognized by a pc shows its not the usb port.
But hey, what do I know. . .

He has more than one problem. He can NOT get a pc to recognize it. I missed it first too and had to re-read it a few times. So it could be the port, or the power button.
I think your options are....
-Find a repair center nearby
-Send it in for repair
-Find out which part is cheaper and replace that yourself first.
Sounds good. The usb port is cheap and easy and while the bezel is off you can verify the power button isn't stuck in its hole in the bezel.
Because he flashed a custom ROM from a stock ROM I took that to mean he had to connect to a pc through the usb port, either to Odin flash a recovery or Odin flash Slimbean. And he can still charge it. And data cables go bad, removing drivers doesn't take them out of memory, etc. So usb port isn't 100% bad for sure, but you're right, its a cheap, easy repair.

If the button is 'stuck' it implies that the it's either stuck engaged or disengaged correct?
If that were true and lets say it were stuck engaged, the power button should be acting as if it is pressed. Which at first would make sense when i say it reboot cycles. It however does not make sense that i can get into download mode and the phone never shuts off until I hit the power button.
It also does not make sense that if i pull the battery out and put it back in the phone does nothing. until i hit the power button. If it were stuck engaged the phone would immediately try to boot when i put the battery back in.
The rom has also been on it for awhile now, 6 months? So i don't exactly remember the processes i went through but i know i never got kies or odin to recognize it. And Yeah, pc wont recognize it now even tryin two different pcs, one of which has never had a samsung device connected to it.
That said I wont rule the power button out either, Is there a good way to check the power button with a multimeter?
I should also say I have the phone apart now so i could at least do external checks of the power button since you both thought it was a possibility, externally it looks fine the actual button inside the case (the little white button the big silver one hits) acts fine but the circuit inside could still be screwed i suppose, which is why i ask about a meter test.
Ultimately I think you're both right though, I'm just going to have order a replacement button and port. Start with the port since it's easier, and if that doesn't enable me to connect it to the pc to flash it try the button too.
Since you mention the ROM, it is possible to have a bad download, flash the ROM, and get into a bootloop. The usual cure for that is a re-download of the ROM, wipe caches, wipe system, and flash fresh ROM.
The sticking power button is a common fault of Samsung phones. Its not broken, but it just gets a little out of alignment in its hole in the bezel. If you already wiggled and snapped, you would have noticed a difference in the phone's behavior, unless there's lint under it.
I think you have your plan -- replace the usb port, and check the button while the phone is without the bezel.
The usb port is on ebay and there is a Youtube video for the process. Everything is here:

Hello guys, it seems I've been a bit stupid and dropped my z2, the phone will no longer boot. I've connected the phone to the wall charger thinking my battery was just dead, as I had left the phone for a while as it had slipped out of my laptop and I thought nothing of it.
The phone will display the sony boot screen however the phone will just restart, I've tried to reset the phone by holding down the power volume down buttons but that doesn't seem to have done anything. I tried the red button where the charger is but that hasn't done anything.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Tried that but it didn't work so I just took the phone back to the shop for a RMA
Greetings, XDA!
Before I begin, thank you in advance. I've scoured the forums many times and found answers from folks who clearly put time, energy and thought into it. You're great.
So for this particular issue, I did a search and found several other problems out there similar to what's happening with mine, but nothing identical. I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not. I'll get to it.
I was about to purchase a generic magnetic charger from a gentleman on CL and asked to test it first. Like a complete bonehead, I didn't mind the correct polarity and the phone immediately turned off upon contact with the magnetic charging port. After that, nothing. No power/volume button combinations, no response to the red reset button, no LED indicator when connected to the USB charger, nothing.
I brought the phone home, pried open the back and disconnected the battery. Once I reconnected the battery then connected the USB cable, I got the blinking red LED. At that point, a volume up/power press gave me 3 vibrations, which is as I understand it is a hard reset. A volume down/power press produced a solid red LED before the screen actually displayed the Xperia splash. After that, it turned back off and it's back to blinking LEDs.
As far as connecting to a PC goes, I did download PC Companion and it will recognize it, but it cannot update the software, as the device needs to stay on. Lastly, volume up and connecting to PC gives the solid blue LED. Volume down and connecting gives a quick red to green flash, then the LED turns off.
If there's any chance of a comeback with this device, I would be most grateful for any pointers, as I obviously love this device as much as you all do.
Happy sweet '16 and thanks again.
I'm really sorry for your machine, but it seems you'll need to contact the Sony technical support for repair.
Appreciate the response! The phone is out of warranty, so I'll be on my own for this one, as repairs are probably nearly the cost of buying a new phone. Fortunately, I have another Z Ultra that has a working motherboard and battery. Any idea which component would be the more likely to replace?
Have you tried to let it charge over night?
Yes I did, which yielded the same results. I fully grasp that it's very likely a hardware malfunction, given the fact that I reverse charged the phone by accident. I'm just not sure what the extent of the damage is.

If PC Companion recognizes the devices, it means that you should have both flashmode and fastboot available. The former is entered by holding VOL DOWN while you connect the Ultra to your computer with the USB cable, while the latter is used by pushing and holding VOL UP, which will make the LED on your device blue. This is used to boot/flash kernels etc.
Install Flashtool, then download a stock ROM (FTF) from the developer section and then try to flash it through Flashtool. PC Companion isn't really a good piece of software, and it won't allow you to do much unless your Ultra is 100% stock and working.
Also, install fastboot if you haven't yet (on your computer). You can use this handy little installer. Then press and hold VOL UP when you connect your device to the computer. Does the LED on your device get blue? If yes, be sure to tell us. Then it'll be a piece of cake to get it running again.
Bought Elephone P9000 for her indoors, when she switched the phone on initially there was a test screen which baffled her so she switched the phone of and left it for me. Now the phone will show that it is charging and the battery image will show on the screen. However the phone will not power on. I have tried the power button and starting via the Hard Reset buttons and nothing is appearing on the screen. Any suggestions as to how to rectify this problem?
Hi.
Is it possible to boot recovery? Hold vol+ and power.

Stupid question, but have you disconnected from power before trying to turn on? It seems to show battery every time I try to turn on with power connected but turns on fine with a 3 second hold of the power button once charger is disconnected.
My phone won't power up, too. It is just showing the elephone logo. Is this the case for you, too?
I.have the same issue. Vol and.Power.buttons do not.do thing. if the charger is plugged in, a green egg timer appears.for a few.seconds, but the phone does not power up/ switch on.

Does anyone knows if the connector on power button is cut off (the flex cable for power and volumes buttons), the phone will not charge anymore?
The phone stop charging or power on, I opened the back cover carrefully and observe that this flex cable is broken.

this forum is for elephone p9000 not s7.. post questions in elephone forum website or the right xda device thread(if theres one..)
Connect it with a PC through a branded USB Cable and then press power or POwer+Vol button it will show you some messages on screen.
My Elephone S7 shows boot Mode and the cursor keep on scrolling from Top to Bottom.
I think you may have some problem like the same.
