Hard reset the phone with power + vol+

Then when you'll connect the phone in flashmode, check windows's device manager for unknown devices
[Sony Cross-Device General] Toledo_JAB:
do you have an unlocked bootloader?

Install Sony's pc companion and try the repair option.

FlashTool logs with errors would help us help you.

The more information on what you have ever done to the phone Will also help.

Xperia ion LT28AT ATT Hard or soft brick? rcecover?

It has been at least 4-5 months since i ve tried to restore or recove my xperia phone.

what started it to mess up was when i was restoring fonts and i installed the wrong one and thus a boot loop.

i just now plugged it into a charge and the red led didnt come on until a minute or so and then after about 10-15 minutes it just went to a green led and then it disappeared and then the screen acts as if it wants to turn on but it doesnt it illiminates the back of it showing nothing, and then it shows a red led and then keeps going from their ( Red Led - no led - Trys to turn on - Red Led) <--- repeat

i think i busted my kernal but what are some steps i can take to fix it or try to, i have flashtool and the .ftf file and drivers installed. its just how do i recover it from this state, is it possible???
[Sony Cross-Device General] smahio:
Hi, I have an Xperia S. I have a broken kernel. But the problem is when the SOny logo comes up. And I pressed the power button nothing happen.

I followed your steps on Battery Charging Cycle. Am stuck at the Sony Logo.

Any way out to solve flash the kernel.

Thanks
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
Maybe try flashing stock rom that might do the trick
[Sony Cross-Device General] smahio:
I cant get the flash mode to flash the stock rom. I have tried to flash kernel only but still stuck on Sony logo. Only a Red led is on. Then when the Sony logo comes up. The LED goes off.
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
hard reset the phone (power+ volume up until 3 vibrations)

then you can connect phone in flashmode

Hard Brick

I'm waiting 20 hours at wall charge and light is red. May be tomorrow will green. I think its work. I write here if i can flash the rom.

-Its 66+ hours and nothing. Still red :( It doesn't work. I think must send sony service.

-Its fix after 72+ hours (3 days) Almost done every step and red light change green i can flash :victory:. Thanks OP :good:

Note: I had full (%100) charge when my phone briked. (Xperia Ion)
[Sony Cross-Device General] mjames.abordo:
hard bricked my acro s

I've updated my CWM then restart the phone then there it goes it never started, black screen, no LED lights when I plug it to a charger or PC. PC cant detect it, Ive tried removing the battery terminal and put it back again ang charge still no LED lights,wont power on, no fastboot mode no flashmode. My phone is totally dead.. no vibration or anything as in no response with button combinations. Please help :crying::crying:
[Sony Cross-Device General] smahio:
What did you do exactly? You've left your phone on charge or off left it like that?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mjames.abordo:
I charge the phone for how many hours last night and RED light goes out, I tried to enter flashmode but cant enter to flashmode the led is red not green then after a while the red light goes out and there it goes again no signs of life, no red light when charger is put on. Then I leave it for a while and again now the RED led is on. I am waiting for the Green led to come out right now..
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
Run flashtool, prepare stock kernel, get to the "now connect your phone" window

And then use the rubber band trick
[Sony Cross-Device General] mjames.abordo:
I tried forcing it to flashmode and faastboot mode now red light goes out again ang no response from the phone.. I will try rubberband method the next time red led show up... Its very frustrating... any other suggestions?can I bring this to sony service center?
[Sony Cross-Device General] smahio:
How exactly did you get the green light? Using the rubber band method and run flashtool leaving your mobile connected to your laptop/PC or just left the mobile on charge or just let the battery die for 72+hours..??
[Sony Cross-Device General] mjames.abordo:
Rubber Band Method Didnt worked for me ...... any other suggestions

?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pro_SmarT:
i am using only wall charger. 72+ hours change green. And i flash it. Say again for 72+ hour my charge was full before bricked.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
Need some advise. My Lti26i is possessed by a Lt28h spirit.

Its bootlooping. Both FASTBOOT and FLASHMODE are "working".

- EMMA > Says its an Lt28h, Downloads LTi26 ROM, Flash fails.

- Flashtool stock ftf > When flashing stuck on "Getting device information"

- Fastboot Windows and Ubuntu. Different kernels with recoveries, also stock > Flashes fine "ok", no change! Bootlogo does not change so im sure its not flashed.

What part of the flash stores the model information? Maybe im flashing the wrong parts?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
Getting device information usually means no drivers or no device connected..

Do you have green light? And do you have any yellow triangle in windows device manager?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
Drivers are fine. Flashtool detects it as FLASHMODE, the "Green" lite.. Even tried FASTBOOT on Linux, no drivers needed.

I cant remember flashing any Lt28h rom or kernel.. Strange.. I use my Z so its been laying around. Want to fix it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
Remember you have to connect the phone only when asked to
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
As mentioned, Flashtool does say its connected in Flashmode. So...

I think the main issue is that its an Lt26i that thinks its an Lt28h. In what part of teh rom is it stored what type of phone it is..?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
System/build.prop

And probably s1 bootloader

But as I said, connect only when asked to
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
Great thanks. Indeed to soon. Results are as last time. Flashes fine. Stil bootloops and i do not lose recovery, so something is deff not flashed correctly.. Only TA excluded in Flashtool. WWE Stock rom..

See log.. http://pastebin.com/8FEargmr

I am very very sure i have a LT26i
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
I was talking about this flashtool!

Not the official sony one
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
I know. I tried both. Just wanted to show what the sony tool detects. I also cant format the internal "sd" from recovery. Format of all other partitions work fine.

Can i flash s1?

S1 > bootloader > kernel > Android..?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mirhl:
Afaik s1 IS the bootloader

Anyway, did you tried to simply flash stock LT26i FTF?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
Yep.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Toledo_JAB:
What happened when you tried the REPAIR option in Sony's PC Companion software?

Your logs read like you flashed 3 different files one for a cXXXX model one for lt26i bootloader relock and then a full stock ftf.

And you are saying you have an Xperia S phone correct?

And with the phone DIS-connected you start FlashTool to use flashmode and select the entire ftf stock ROM. Then when FlashTool says "waiting for phone in flash mode" you connect while holding the volume down button and get a green led and the flashing starts?

If you have flashed a custom kernel for a different device then you will need to use fastboot mode in FlashTool to repair the partitions.

Try again, and for your logs we only need "info" "debug" is not necessary

[Sony Cross-Device General] Devtone:
Nope, they are loaded by Flashtool. Not flashed. AFAIK.

1. Open Flashtool. Press FLASH. Select Stock TFT. Deselect TA. Wait for extraction and notice to connect phone.

2. Plug in USB, holding down vol -. = Green light :)

3. Flashing starts..

Flashed without errors. Also tried several kernels. Stock and Doom's kernel. Flashed it with fastboot (Blue light) in Windows AND Linux. Both "OK", no erros. Stil the kernel does not change! Seems read-only. Please notice the Lt28h detection..

See... :)

PC Companion can't repair due to bootloader unlock. And EMMA Fails without errors.. (Sony Flashtool)

So.. if all the previous tools failed..

Try to flash the entire system partition with fastboot. Fortunately there are already some img images out there. Like CM10.1 alpha 0.1

The command should be fastboot flash system <img-name>
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordKJ:
Hello,

so let me explain my problem with my desire. I'm using 3G network nonstop (data connection), actually , used to use. Since last Saturday (was using it everyday until that, nearly unable to get lock) I'm not able to get a gps lock (well, tbh just used 'cold start' in some gps toolbox app, and got lock without network in <10 mins, went inside obviously lost it, started data connection - no 3G even tho im using 3G on phone which is next to me ... on same carrier.. only EDGE ... and I'm unable to get the lock again, it takes some mins for the sensor to even see that there are some satellites out there.. and i've got 7/8 sats lock 10mins ago.., actually the phone is out for 5mins or so, with gps turned on and edge turned on and it says that it doesnt see any satellite..).

Well, second issue is as I stated up there with my mobile data connection. Same part with the Saturday, was using 3G everyday, whole day... and now, I get only EDGE, everywhere, phone standing next to my phone on the same carrier has 3G and I've got EDGE...

'What did I do?'

Well, I've tried reflashing ROM (CM7), no change .. only EDGE and hardly some gps signal.

tried nandroid restore, no change so i guess this is not a ROM problem as i was using CM7 without problems for 5 months+.

So I have a bad feeling that the HW in my lovely desire is starting to fail.. :( ... * i guess it found out that im going to order galaxy nexus soon :D *

Thanks for any ideas or solutions for my problem...

* going to check the phone outside, did another cold gps restart as i couldnt get lock with edge/wifi turned on... let me see ... yay , I't doesnt see anything, and by anything i mean anything..

... forgot to say, phone is rooted (you already know it as im on CM7) and S-OFFed.. but thats for the whole 1.5 year I have it so ...

let me check the phone again, .. 4/4 gps lock.. lol! .. tbg , screen attached ... turned gps off, turned edge on, and returned the phone to the same spot... nooothing ... no instant gps locks like the ones I've had in last weeks...

..hmm tried to use sim in other phone (which i found out is not working.), and now it says that i don't have a sim card.. must try the card in another phone..:crying: //edit , ofc it doesnt work when i pushed the sim the wrong way.. :D ... so this one is solved...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordKJ:
well, suddenly , i've got 3g ... and tried to start gps just for fun.. straight lock .. so ... :confused:

Hello everyone,

I just rooted my infinity and i got a low performance on I/O

View attachment 1277688

And often there are some lags during games (not a huge game, just diner city) and apex launcher

Things doesn't go smoothly and it feels like taking 1or2 secs to response, something even stunned

Therefore i am looking for improvements, however i dont know very well on the systems files so that i want to make sure before i take actions.

Coz i am pretty worry on bricked x_x

Hope you guys understand what I am saying and thanks for the help!
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
It seems like the most safe/non-invasive way to improve performance is to remove/disable ASUS bloatware/downloaded apps that run in the background and slow down your system/use up your ram. Check the various sections of this forum for lists of what's safe to remove/disable.

If you decide to unlock and flash a custom recovery (I would recommend TWRP--don't try CWM from Rom Manager...please!) and rom, the Zeus Rom v3.0 is great and v4.0 should be coming soon. There is also another stock based rom that looks quite good. These roms have removed a lot of bloatware, have instituted a number of system tweaks that have improved my TF700 performance quite a bit over a complete stock ICS experience.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jjdevega:
To add to okantomi....

Please don't jump into unlocking right away until you have read up on it

Fully.

It's best to wait till after your return period has expired so you don't end up returning an unlocked tablet that could possibly be recirculated or keep you from returning/getting your money back because you voided your warranty.
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
Myself,, I'm waiting on Jelly Bean before I even think of unlocking. There are ROM'S that LOOK like JB, but it's not the actual OS
[Asus Transformer TF700] zxaoer:
thanks the replies

ya, i am not planning to unlock and install custom recovery in this stage

The reason that I rooted my tf700 is mainly for adblock, backup and recovery apps data to other devices and something like that

also, freeze those stock apps within asus which doesnt useful to me :D

It's possibile flash rom wp7 on Lg optmus dual?

Thanks in advance
[LG Optimus 2x] HerrKuk:
Yes, everything is possible

But you need at least custom kernel, custom rom, custom bootloader(?)

The hard part: Almost everything you need are closedsource, so you need to write all drivers by yourself and nvidia wont give any support. IF nvidia was going to help you then its up to LG to release their sources. Oh, i almost forgot, you also need MS sourcecode..

Im no dev so i might be wrong

----------------------------------------------------------------------

arcee: the star, the galaxy R, and the grand X are completely different devices. different components, different resolutions, different radios, different audio amps,different panel manufacturers, different almost everything. The designs have nothing in common other than being T2

Has anyone else noticed that it is possible to lose more battery than gain while charging our phone? Last night I had it on the charger while downloading stuff via torrents. This morning I woke up and saw my phone was at 45%. I know why the battery drained, but I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Martakia:
I have never had this problem, but granted I do not do things as demanding as torrents on my phone. Could it be other problems such as overclocking your phone, or possibly a bad kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DangerIsGo:
I have this issue in my car. The car USB can only provide up to 500mA of current at 5V to the phone. When I have the screen on along with music playing, LTE enabled, and navigation going, it will certainly lose charge while charging. I'm looking to modify it to provide up to 1.25A. In any case, the stock charger is 1A. Even though with all that going on (screen and navigation are power hogs), 500mA is barely enough as I'll lose about 1% every half hour. Maybe you can try plugging into a higher capacity converter (maybe borrow one from someone, or have one lying around?) lets say 2A (that's what i'm using, I found one with my HP touchpad) and see how that works.

In the end, I still say 1A is sufficient even with that going on, so it sounds like somethings askew with your phone IMHO.
