Well messing up mainboard or cpu with stock kernel and roms seems kinda weird to me :p

Hey mate (from TF300T :p)

Well, actually Sony devices are hard to brick, at least 2011 and 2012 line as far as I know I've never recovered a phone that wasn't just soft bricked. But I've just received a pm from bin4ry with something I could try :)

I'm not going to open it, I can get a replacement from the store, so opening it will definitely void my warranty!

Yes, just received a pm from bin4ry to enter a recovery mode I didn't knew about :p
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Egan:
Could you share with us which recovery mode?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DooMLoRD:
From what I remember their is a Qualcomm Download mode QHSD something.. .
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabappel2548:
Vol - and vol+ at the same time bin4ry sent me a pm ;) but that also doesn't do a thing.. So I think my XZ is really dead
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pongnamu:
Then will you be able to exchange it to a new one? We need great developers like you :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norair:
same here...

My Xperia Z also died 2days ago...Battery was low(4%) and i conitinued to play my game(plauge inc) and then phone went off(like any other android smartphone) and then i plugged it my phone...after 30min i came to turn it on...but nothing happened...volume up/down + power everything tried...nothing helps

no LED no vibration...just nothing

i also let it 24h on charge...then put it off...wait 20sec...and then plug it in...but that also not helped. :crying:..(was recommened from Sony)

dockingstation don't help

Sony posted here(http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/120222?start=20&tstart=0) the following statement:

"I'm posting just to say that the problem has been identified and a fix for this will be implemented in next software update for the phone. Unfortunately I don't have any exact release date for when the new software will be released but I will get back to you as soon as I know.

Thank you guys for contributing with your details and info, this always helps to identify any issues."

will go to service tomorrow...if i get some infos from them i will share them...bye

EDIT

: i chated with SonyMobile...they said its a software issue...

(Volume Up + Power Button, Repair with Sony PC Companion) <------they said it should help..but nothing worked

soon will go to service...will share if i get new info

NEW EDIT

: So i was at the service...they replaced my phone(only the phone)...they didn't change the accesories...and the new one is from the 2013 W 10 the old one was 13W07...so lets hope this doesn't have such a problem

sorry for off topic, but do you know how can I fix this error QHSUSB_QDLOAD on ASUS Padfone 2 which uses Qualcomm Snapdragon S4?

On my signature there is my own topic and until now there is no solution.

I've TWO padfones 2 dead in hands and I'm thinking to buy a Xperia Z but I'm facing too many bricks on Xperia Z here on XDA and both uses the same processor. I'm afraid and I really don't know if will buy it or not.

As I live in Brazil and ASUS/SONY assistance does not cover products bought outside Brazil. In fact all of my devices are imported from Switzerland.

Tried someone with some expertise on revive devices with Riffbox, Medusa, Ort JTAG, GPG jtag and Volcano boxes. Only Riffbox and Medusa has support to A68 (Padfone2).

According to technician, medusa box gives this error:

ERROR 1235

EMMC NOT PRESENT OR CORRUPT

DO NOT MEMORY IN DIRECTORY

Do you know how can I fix it? Any ideas?

What about Xperia Z, do you recommend?

THIS /\

I did this with my ZL that was in the Sleep of Death for more than a week. After trying everything else I broke out the spudger, popped the back off and disconnected the battery from the Logic Board. I also disconnected all other easily acessable clippy wires and left it sit for about 5 minutes. Plugged it back in, did a regurlar boot and it was find. Unfortunately, now, after a week of it working perfect I am suffering AGAIN from the dreaded "Sudden death" From sleep of death to Sudden Death. As Much as I love Sony products this is seriously making me re-consider upgrading to a new Sony Device.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezuk:
I've just had this same issue -C6603 just suddenly died on me, totally randomly. It died in my pocket - used the phone, put it in my pocket, and when I took it back out to do something, that was it. Dead phone, won't turn on.

Got home, plugged it into a charger, still won't turn on (amber light). Power+Vol up helped and it booted, but i have no idea when/if/why it will happen again.

Xperia Z won't turn on. Sudden Death?

Two days ago, my Xperia Z was on 1% battery, so I put it on charge. A few hours later, I go back to my phone, which had now turned off. I couldn't turn it back on, and I've also tried all the reset/hard reset ways. I left it on charge a bit longer (which all in all turned out to be 11 hours), still no success of turning it on. I took the charger out, then put it back in, which resulted in the red indicator light to come on (not flashing) for a minute, then switch off. But I still couldn't turn it on.

The battery is non-removable, which kind of sucks.

I've had my phone for about a year now.

I've read about this Sudden Death thing happening to the Xperia Z phones after the new software update, I don't know how true that is.

Apparently Sony has released a software update which MIGHT fix Sudden Death, but the thing is, because my phone is dead, PC Companion (updates your phone) won't detect my phone for update! So how can that even be possible?

Put a rubber band across the device so that power and vol up are permanently pressed. Charge the phone with the rubber bands across it for several hours and try to boot it up again

Sony Xperia Z Sudden death x 2 plus sim card, no service, sound

my letter to tmobile regarding problems with Xperia Z:

The service and phones you have offered me as a family account have been defective since day one. Your representatives seem not to care that I am having major problems. First I cannot hear on the phone, volume too low, speaker hard to use because it only works on one side bottom. Then no service problem with my husbands phone, then sudden death on my sons phone. Now sudden death on my husbands phone. No offer to replace with a different phone. I want them all changed out, why should I pay full price to a plan when these are all defective and you keep wanting to give me used devices and same type that keeps going bad. These are obvoiusly defective, all three phones. Needless to say I am VERY disappointed in your lack of care. Treat people fairly as you would want to be treated and offer a real and honest solution instead of offering robot service.

Sudden Death x 2 phones 1 and 4 months old

no service sim card issue

no volume speaker sound/hearing issue

STILL paying on these phones for the next twenty months!

Does anyone know what is going on with this phone?

I eventually sent my Xperia Z to Sony for repair. I have received an email saying that their engineers could not repair it, and have sent out a like for like exchange handset which I should receive in a few days.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] douim:
This post is just to show you my experience whit the xperia z sudden death and the only solution who worked for me.

A friend bought an xperia z, and he faced of sudden death, 4 month later. This appear when the phone shuts down whit 0% battery and the phone NEVER wake up, no led, nothing.

- I put the phone on charge 24h/24h ... nothing happen.

- I test all combination of hardware button and I've got a blister on my hand ... nothing happen.

He can't send back in warranty because i root and instal omni rom.

And i don't have 3zx box for perhaps wake up the phone.

My only way is open the phone... when the phone's open i unplug the battery and i wait one hour, after this i connect via usb the phone to my pc (whit the battery unplug!) and miracle the phone boot on bootloader whit the blue led. Then i disconnect the phone to pc, i plug the battery and i connect the phone via usb on my pc and ... the phone boot normally whit red led and stay in charge. He lost waterproof but the phone still alive(since 3 month) without any problem.

It's a shame, for me this seem's to be a badly planned obsolescence ...

It's in the official CM10 nightlies thread in the OP IIRC. Thank you DJ for doing this, folks who don't know just won't know how great this is really. When I had my GNEX fitsnugly always had kangs with cherry picks for every official CM nightly and it was freakin' great! While I love custom one off CM/AOSP roms, sometimes it's just hard to beat official CM with cherry picks! That's bleeding edge, and 99% of the time, perfectly stable too! Thanks again.

[One (M7) General] flathunt:
I think that's specific enough - I'm kicking myself for this but I've got just as excited as everyone else about what is just another phone, techgasm indeed. However, now it's happened I'm going to embrace it.

Anyone heard anything from T-Mobile yet? I ordered mine on 22nd Feb, I've been receiving annoying weekly txts ever since telling me they haven't forgotten me, including one yesterday, I phoned 150 to ask when it was coming and they said shipping on the 16th. That strikes me as codswallop, no-one does anything on the weekend, and the phone call was so vague "Nothing on your record to say there are any delays" but no real info.

Anyone? Anything? Entitlement much?
[One (M7) General] flathunt:
And I'm even talking to myself - So the T-Mobile site has gone down, and there is no facility to have an online chat with someone (phone chat is utterly pointless). T-Mobile are WORSE THAN HITLER (unless it arrives today)
[One (M7) General] riz157:
I think guys tmobile won't be delivering anything until 29th as no news of stock news available.

P4U do have upgrade stock ready for dispatch today.
[One (M7) General] FUNKIT247:
Welcome to my world.

There is only one reason & one reason alone that I am with T-Mobile & that is my fnf discount. If it was not for that I would have left them years ago.

When the phone went live on there website I called them to order the phone. After going through the plans I was told I could not order the phone !! Eventually I was allowed to order the phone on 1st March but only after being told I had to switch to ee to keep my discount ( nice try ).

So I have been trawlling T Mobile's social meadia & they are so full of it.

Anyway I got a message yesterday via the HTC facebook page that they were shipping phones to T-Mobile today. So I guess once they have put there logo & crappy software on the phone then you will get it.
[One (M7) General] flathunt:
Right, well I just got off the phone again because my last conversation wasn't in the least bit convincing but this time at least the chap was certain, T-Mobile don't have any in stock and won't have until the end of the month (it'll "definitely" be in my hand by the 1st April but that date is highly auspicious considering events thus far).

On the plus side he did credit my account with a £20 "good will" credit as I've been waiting so long. You might as well get onto them, see how many different answers we get and who gets the best goodwill handout.
[One (M7) General] johnbrighton:
They have been rubbish!

I've been told twice on the phone i'll get mine next week - this morning they said monday - but seemed vague.....if I don't get it monday I will probably leave t-mobile...

[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
I've literally just got off the phone to t-mobile and I've been told that they are out of stock of the HTC One.

[One (M7) General] Bebida:

[One (M7) General] johnbrighton:

I've now been told they are expecting the stock NEXT week! After telling me several times that I would be getting my phone this week......and they took the money 2 weeks ago when I ordered......

I was offered no cash incentive for the delay or offer to refund the cost of the handset like others have had......i'm looking for a deal elsewhere me thinks!
