go to service centre tell them that you were doing a 4.3 update and this happened.they wont recognise that your phone has an unlocked bootloader bcoz it doesnt start!they will replace it make sure you dont have cwm installed.

[Q] Xperia Arc not booting after update OTA

I have brought xperia arc LT15i , two month ago.
i have unlocked the bootloader of LT15i.
Then update my Xperia arc LT15i from my cell OTA (OVER THE AIR ) only not from computer after that is not booting and it has been freeze or death.
I have shown my cell to service center also, and they also not finding any solution for that. and they r telling that your cell is not in warranty ok after unlocking the bootloder.
thy have also flash my cell then also cell is not booting up.
what is the solution..........
ok i understand that not in warranty BY UNLOCK THE BOOT-LOADER.
But Sony Ericsson people should provide me some solution for that.
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT MY CELL ROM MEMORY GOT CORRUPTED if ye the how to fix that thing or give me some alternative option.
plz plz plz any one can help me with my problem. will be very thankful.
here you go this will fix it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126358
the update bricks the arc when you have a unlocked bootloader, follow the guide in the link i posted and when you fix your phone dont do any more updates until sony have a solution for it

I got a glossy black brick... I think.

Hi everyone, on this past week I've been trying to get me XP back to life... but with no success.
For starters I woke up one day to find that my phone has powered off by itself (no root nor unlocked bootloader), tried to power it on but no response, had to remove e reinsert the battery for it to boot up. Some days later same thing but when i turned it on it started a bootloop, repaired with SEUS.
This week it made the same thing and i had to repair it with Wotanserver, but when i let it alone it would reboot... everytime it entered the sleep mode it would crash and reboot. Tried flashing some roms on the forum with no luck... now wotan sees my phone as a R800i when it really is a R800a and SEUS keep saying that me phone have the latest update.
Yesterday it stopped bootlooping... it don't even show the "Sony Ericcson" phrase.
I'm new to android phones got this phone in oct/2011, didn't installed CWM.
So if someone could try to help me i would really apreciate.
Ok so, download flashtool and flash the latest r800i firmware or the any r800a firmware. As long as you can enter flash mode, your phone is fine. The reason the roms didn't work is your locked bootloader.
Nevermind, Potato13 beat me to it before I finished typing.
Thanks for the replies.
Yes I tried flashtool with several rom's either R800i and R800a from .42 to .62, from US to HK. Neither made my phone show any signs of beeing better.

try to unlock your bootloader.. then flash r800a fw..
So to get this right - You already flashed different stock firmwares to it and that stuff still happened?
Should actually not happen... to me that would indicate that there is some kind of hardware problem since you never rooted the phone nor unlocked the bootloader to really mess things up.
I would send it in

Isn't unlocking bootloader only for custom rom's? Well thats what i think it is.

Yes I was thinking on doing so but i already flashed other Fw's on this phone isnt my warrant already void? I'm saying this because I dont think I would have the money to pay the repair service.
As far as I am concerned, only rooting and unlocking the bootloader voids your warranty. You have done neither so you should be fine .
I asked Sony Customer support once how to handle my not booting phone and they adviced me to flash stock firmware - So I would figure they can't deny you services because of doing so.

Ohh I see thanks for the answer, really appreciate.

Sent the phone to SE as sashake recommended, and turn out that the problem was with the hardware itself.
SE gave me a new unit as it was still covered by warranty.

[Q] Can't flash my xperia arc

hello
im trying to flash my xperia arc to ics but it wont flash
it always stuck on vendor.sin or system.sin
plz help
use the latest flashtool and make sure verification is unticked before flashing
it still stuck on system.sin
when the flashing starts its all good until it reaches to flashing vendor
then the percentage is still the same 10%
The most common cause locked bootloader, have you have it unlocked?
how can i know if its locked?
i cant use my phone
i have the logo of sony and then i see a phone under a caution sign
here http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
knowing that you can't use your phone, just follow instruction to unlock it (don't read step 1-2, just jump to step 3)
cmiiw
have u ever tried to unlock it?or atleast do u remember? C'mon dig up the memories
what is IMEI?

well its like a digital fingerprint of a device..they are unique..no two fingerprints are same..they are 15 digits code.. Just key in *#06# on your mobile phone and it will display its IMEI number..just follow the instruction to unlock the bootloader man..
or you can find your IMEI in your phone box if i'm not mistaken
You can find the IMEI underneath the battery as well.

[Q] Rooted, unlocked and on CM - how to return to locked, unrooted stock?

Hi all
I need to send my ZL to the Sony repair centre, as it has a serious fault.
I have a rooted phone, with an unlocked bootloader and am currently running CM10.2. Can anyone tell me how to relock? To do that, I need stock firmware, but I don't know how to flash it as I've seen warnings that I can't flash this while unlocked. The official Sony software doesn't let me update, as it recognises I'm running "modified software."
I've downloaded the latest flashtool, but that's it so far. All help appreciated and yes, I have looked but couldn't find anything that wasn't conflicting information.
Thanks guys.

After flashing the .ftf you can also use flashtool to relock your BL.
If you're in EU, you can send your device to service center even if you previously unlocked the BL.
According to European Union law, Sony has to prove that your problem occured as a result of the unlocked BL..
And even if you're not in EU, just try and send it in. Depending on the problem, they often don't check BL and DRM status..

[help] Xperia M can't install updates

Hey I'm new here so sorry if I explain it weirdly and I mistakenly posted this in a different section before
So my xperia M which is now unrooted can't install the 15.4.A.1.9 update it just downloads and reboots and goes to the boot up screen and loads for 2-3 seconds and blacks out and and restarts and it says couldn't install update. How can I fix this?
Try flashing a .ftf file via flashtool
Press thanks if I helped!
This might me the answer
Hey there!
I think i understood your problem and i have a question to ask you. is your bootloader locked or did u unlocked ur bootloader anytime and didnt lock it back.?
if your bootloader is unlocked , u wont be able to install updates from official Sony Update Center.
I dono if this is the exact reason y ur are unable to do but this happened with my phone too.
I use Sony Xperia M Dual C2004 and i wasnt able to install updates, then i noticed that my bootloader was unlocked then i used Flashtool to lock it back, then i was able to install the updates
Or if u want to install .FTF of your phone manually do it via Flashtool coz its safe
and if you want to get .FTF of your phone directly from Sony use PC Companion as Sony Update Service [SUS] is stopped
Hope it helps :angel::fingers-crossed::good:
