Which ROM have you got? o.O

You need about 1GB, because the apps are bigger, when they are unpacked (Installed) and they need to store their data somewhere, don't they ;)

Try deleting some bloatware apps, or some apps you don't use and try dowloading again ^^

Use kernel for recommended kernel by developer...maybe you can try super stock kernel yourself.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
Hello guys,

I have an Xperia active rooted with ICS (sony official) and it just died. I got a phone call and before I even answer it the phone crashed and was unresponsive. I removed the battery and from that point on it doesn't boot. I just get a vibration and then nothing. It needs to remove the batter again in order to shut down.

Some things that might help

1) No response or led light when plugged into PC or wall charger

2) Can get to Fastboot and Flashmode

3) I tried flashing again ICS and 2.3.4 but still nothing. The flash finishes OK but I the phone doesn't turn on.

4) When tried flashing with Wipe Data option enabled I always get the Abort Flashing error.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Bootloader is unlocked or not?

If yes, flash another kernel and install any rom...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
Yes it's unlocked. I tried your suggestion by installing this kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1398910 and then the official ICS image but still the same thing. It vibrates when turned on and stays there :(.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Could it be battery related? You cannot enter clockworkmod, when you have flashed for example rage or x-kernel?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
If it was batter then it shouldn't turn on at least when plugged into the charger? Also once I hit power button and vibrates then it stays there, it doesn't shutdown. If I press the button again it does nothing until I remove and put back the battery. I believe this is an indication that it's not battery. Also the first time when crashed when I was pressing the power button the bottom buttons (return home and menu) were turning on (not anymore though since it seems that doesn't boot at all)

I tried booting to clockworkmod but no luck :(. Just to make sure, how do I do it in Xperia Active? If I remember correctly I have to press the volume down button several times until it gets into to he recovery mode, right?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Patrol619:
Yes, you are right. Try to relock your bootloader.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
How can I relock the bootloader? What if the solution is to have an unlocked bootloader? Can I unlock it again since the phone is not responsive now?

Sorry for two many questions. I started really worrying about losing the phone now :(.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
I just noticed that for rage kernel I have to wait for the blue light to turn on and then press volume down. I do this but still nothing. I started suspecting that might be a screen problem. Can someone give me the sequence to restart phone or turn off from the recovery mode? If this work and it means it's my screen I guess.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Patrol619:
Maybe it has something to do with bootloader. I bet it can be relocked, you just have to search a tutorial. I would try it, you have nothing to lose now.

WT19i@Tapatalk 2
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
You can't turn off from cwm, just pull battery. Maybe screen is dead, so background screen. You could try logcat to see what happens.

So the blue light appear, but screen doesn't come up? So it's related to the screen I think.

If you flash sony stock rom for your device you should be able to relock bootloader, just search in the forum for solutions... :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Patrol619:
If you entered the recovery, then press Home button for reboot.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
OK thank you guys. I will try to relock the bootloader and see how it goes. BTW when I tried to use SUS I got a message that a modified image (or something) was detected. Is this due to the unlocked bootloader? If I lock it the SUS will also work?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
It didn't die while I was experimenting with flash. It was working properly for a long time and just died after a phone call. That's the guide I used to root it and install ICS in the first place. That's of no use now since at step 3 the phone doesn't boot anymore. Blank screen.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
Will be there any vibration when restarting? I am looking for a way to see if the phone works and it's just the screen the problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
2 pages and the most simple solution has not been posted.

Get into recovery mode (press voluke down with phone switched off, then connect the USB cable), and then flash a stock FTF filr using flashtool
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
Hello dumraden,

I tried your suggestion but still nothing :(. When press volume down and connect USB cable the led lights green and I suppose I get into flash mode. Is this correct? I am asking because you mentioned recovery mode and I am not sure if it's the same thing.

Also the screen seems to be completely black! Like it doesn't light up at all, not even a light flick.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
I also tried loading the rage kernel for 2.3.4 Android and then installing the stock 2.3.4 FTF but I get the following error:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
I tried the new Flashtool and didn't gave me this error (with Wipe user data ticked) but still the phone is dead.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] boiod:
I noticed some new symptoms on my phone.

1) When is turned on it doesn't just freeze, it stays with a black screen doing nothing and after several minutes (not always the same time) it turns off again (I call this turn on-off cycle)

2) Today after several flashes I let it rest and after a few turn on-off cycles it actually worked. It worked for couple of minutes and I was even able to make a test call to it and worked but after few minutes it got back to the previous state.

3) I noticed that this turn on-off cycle consumes a lot of battery. After symptom (2) when the phone turned on I noticed that had about 25% battery. 5-6 turn on-off cycles after that the battery was completely drained (led flashes orange when I press the power button).

4) Now the phone can be charged from the wall charger

The phone now has rage kernel for 2.3.4 Android, the official 2.3.4 android of Sony. Also I tried to relock it using this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1563840 and unbrick it using this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1553601

I wasn't able to verify if the bootloader was indeed relocked. How can I do this with the phone off? flashtool says "Bootloader: ROOTED"

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jxs714:
Hey guys, im sure im not the only person, but it seems the internet is SLOW and moves in speed bursts/intermittent pauses when loading websites and downloads can be horrendous sometimes. Its not my reception, never had this problem on another android phone. I flashed the blaze modem.. tried to use other modems like the k2 modem (if thats what the name was) but everytime i flash any other modem it seems to sorta temporarily brick the modem because I never get service after flashing. I am on latest only one rom

Am I missing something? I even changed automatic band to manual, no difference. Is this normal and an issue that needs to be resolved? Please advise, the internet speeds. random slow downs and bursts are killing me. Please advise, thanks guys.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
my advice. try all the T-Mobile compatable modems. some work better based solely on your location.

atfer you flash or reboot your phone, normally it takes a while to aquire a signal, its especially bad with this phone. the fastest way is to go into settings and manually search for a network
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Vicious Von:
I agree to the OP. I've tried every modem also and I've experienced the same exact problems where I get great reception in bursts. When I get the h+ signal it goes light gray and I get the worse receptions or the signal just stalls. The h and 3g signals go bright white and signals become fair at best. There are moments of speedy receptions but its seldom.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
I was getting all these symptoms when i was on cm9. Its a known fact the that aokp for some reason generally speeds are slower than what you would usually get. This has happened to me on every smartphone ive own.

As soon as i flashed blackstar Rom and dialed *#2263# and changed to wcmda all, my data doesnt hang as much anymore. The spurts rarely occur anymore. Hopes this helps.

I had good speeds on DAGr8 aokp sept 3rd build but that was about it. Sometimes I have to travel about to receive other tower connections. I'll go back to black star for the reception and see where it stands. Thanks for the info I'll try it out.

I have to commend you on your observation black star with the blaze rom is clearly the best option for getting good service.

Sent from the Great White Note
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
I figured out a way to get high speeds again. Go to *#2263# make sure band is on all wcdma and reboot. Once your booted up go back to the band menu and change to wcdma 850. Circle with a line thru it will pop up. Wait like 30 secs and signal bars should pop up but no 4g. Then change back to all wcdma and do a speedtest and if your in a really good t-mobile area your downloads and upload will be fast. I just discovered this last night. Every time I reboot and do a speed test, I get like 2 mbps down and crap uploads every time but as soon as I changes bands to 850 and go back, its like the radio reboots and i get awesome speeds like I used too.

Edit: once in a while there will be a hang. What I do before that happens is before I use my data I refresh it by pressing data toggle wait ten seconds and turn is back on.

I think i figured it out guys, try turning OFF the data roaming option!!!! Let me know if that works for you, it seems like it just did for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Vicious Von:
Service mode specifically is for stock ROMs. I'll have to go back to it again. Another thing I noticed is that when I altered the service mode then switched ROMs I couldn't change from 2g/3g/h it just stayed on 2g figuring that was the last setting I had it on in the stock ROM. I flashed the stock ROM last night to change the service rom then flashed PA CM10 and I'm getting h again. I will do what you suggested if it results in better speeds. Cm9/cm10 ROMs don't have the service mode but have the phone information settings. Its not as direct or deep in changing the radio freq.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] soapbox23:
Thank you Rob! This definitely worked for me. I was running the Tmo stock rom (from the Tmo note forums) for about 2 weeks with my down speeds reaching up to 12mb and up reaching up to 3mb. Had to reboot last night, and my speeds went down to crap again, but I just did this and my speeds are back! Great find.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Christogq:
So it seems like the Tmobile Stock Rom is the best way for us to go? Is it rooted at least? Why does this Rom work better than all the others in regards to internet speeds?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Vicious Von:
Probably because its specific for our phone. Stock for us is touchwiz do that's probably a factor.

I 've been using this fone for 2months and quite disappointed with music quality and loudness. Stock headset is **** and I went for Smartheadset mh1c. That seems to be "OK " . But still loudness lacks by atleast 10-20%. Any way to fix this. What is your music Xperiance with Xperia S? Plz share your Opinions and what headset do u use with SXS? I 've used LG gd 900 crystal earlier and it is a Dolby fone which still beats many existing fones IMHO. Thnx in advance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DrKrFfXx:
I have two sets of earphones, a pair of Sennheiser CX300, and a pair of Shure SE215. I gave away the earphones that came with the phone.

CX300 produce a nice crisp sound output when connected to the SXS, it lacks in the bass department, but I'm not a basshead, so I don't care that much. I use flat EQ with this set of earphones. Volume is good. I think I never go over 70-80% of the total volume, unless, I'm rocking all out. 100% volume is loud enough. I don't need more.

Shures are overall better earphones, instrument separation is greater, and although they lack in the high freq range, I can't say I miss it with the EQ leaning towards treble boost. Bass is deep, but not too much to overshine other frequencies. They are way louder too, with 80-85% volume being as loud as the Sennheisers, 100% volume hurts.

I only use FLAC files, compressed mp3 sounds awful on the Shures, with some 320kbps being the exception.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] oxycash:
Then my loudness issue might be because the both headsets theat I have never fit perfectly in my ears. Thnx btw :)
