[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schneeoleo:
Hi guys,

when I was preparing my phone for sale, I probably hard-bricked it.

It seems like I restored the TA-partition from another Z5c.

It happened about 30sec after I restored the TA-partiton. It just crashed and the Led flashed red a few times.

Now it seems to be dead completely

Now my phone does not turn on, nor can I get info flashmode anything.

Vol-up + Power -> nothing happens

Vol-down + Power -> nothing happens

Vol-down + connect to pc -> nothing happens

Not even the led turns on.

Is there sth. similar to a bios-reset on pc? Or sth. else I can do if I remove the backplate?

Physically everything should be ok, right? So there has to be a way to get it flashable again?

Not much of a problem if i cant restore it, but I'm curious :)
