your hwconfig is damaged by the kernel .... you need to rewrite it with setool2.

Red LED blinks?
Charge your battery and than flash a clean stock ROM.
If you want to use CM then you need unlocked BL or else they wont boot.
Nothing is broken, its just a failed ROM install.:good:

Xperia Arc Boot Loop

I own a Sony Xperia Arc (purchased on June, 2011) and it doesn't work anymore without any explanation.
When I turn on the phone, it appears Sony Ericcson brand and then, mobile network carrier brand, but then, instead of appearing home, it appears again Sony brand and an infinite loop goes on.
At first,I tried to solve the problem with the Sony tools like PC Companion and Sony Update Service.
Then, I tried to do a hard reset (back + menu and power), but nothing changed (the same bootloop).
What would you do now? Would be useful trying to flash some firmware? I have been reading posts about flashing firmware, bootloader unlocking and rooting Xperia Arc, but I don't now really what would be the best move now.
For your information, I haven't applied any kind of official upgrade before, neither I have tried to root the phone or flash any custom firmware, so I had my phone as it came from factory (with Android 2.3.2). Moreover, I haven't installed any suspicious application, just typical apps like whatsapp and so on. By the way, the phone haven't suffered any crash neither wet.
I have attached the log I have taken when I try to turn on the phone (I get the same log again and again, at the end of the log it reports some problem with memory, I hope it's not a hardware problem):

Hi,
also have the same problem.
I have the same problem.
İ have lt15i firmware. Try to install lt18i via flashtool and something broken and aborted. I tried to install LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_(1247-1041).ftf via flashtool. It said flashed but said power on turn on unknown sources and devices. When i try to power on it boot loop in Sony Logo.
I try to use CWM mode. Wipe and flash some data. Couldn't find user data files. Installed a Custom ROM when a boot animation appear its boot again to SONY logo. what should i do?
Any ideas?
In the end, I could fix the problem flashing the latest firmware with Sony Update.
Anyways, thank you very much for the advice

Hello Guys, I tried to flash sling v3.2 but after flashing it i got on the aroma installer "symlinks error" after rebooting my phone it was stuck in lg logo : "secure booting failed" then it shows a black screen with on-screen buttons.
After that, I flashed Teenybins .bin fix and now the phone has download mode and recovery mode i tried the softbrick guide in the forums but still no luck
Please any help will be appreciated thanks
Update: Now my phone is not booting up (not even getting into fastboot/recovery) and when i hold the power button or hold vol- and power button the phone blinks a red led and then no response plz respond guys!!!
Try to charge it a bit. Maybe its completely empty. But use a charger that can output more than 1.5A
Sent from my Optimus G using XDA Free mobile app
flash stock rom. lg flashtool 2014 should work but if im remember u have to disconnect internet in one step..
or try artmod locked bootloader version (locked bootloader kernel)
Ur actually status:
u have locked bootloader with a rom which is not booting. now u can flash artmod and locked bl kernel (look at thread) over adb sideload. so u will not loosing ur files if u havent wiped sdcart (internal storage)
or if u have no important files, flash stock. theres also a flasher with option to wipe or not. u can it also try with them...
Unbelievable!!!!!!
My phone was hard bricked and I fixed it!!!! I'm going to post a guide
