Then I rebooted my phone to see if it works but , sadly I HARD BRICKED MY PHONE !!!!
I taked it to the repair service then they told me there is a problem in a part of the motherborad IC Power and it must to be replaced but the bigest problem is that this part isnt avabile in my country , I live in egypt they told me to take my phone to an offcial sony repair clint they may help

Please what am I suposed to do in this situation ? Why does sony sells phones without giving it is fixes in any case , or can I fix it myself ? The phoje dosent boot on cwm neither flashmod nor fastboot , does flashing a kernel fix this ? If so then how can I flash it without fastboot and flashmod and cwm ???

HI,

I hope your phone is restarting continously once it has charged bit and then dies because of battery drains.

You need to have the ftf file (flash file for xperia V ) and the ODIN ready

You may download the ftf file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277334 if not downloaded already

this versiion is 9.1.A.1.140. If you have the firmware file please use that or you may download from teh provided link.

Run the flashtool .

You may try this step:

1. Do not connect the phone to computer
2. Remove the battery.

3. Connect the phone to computer while holding the "volume down" key (do not relese the button) connetion should be made to computer without batttery. other wise the battery will keep on restarting the phone and will eventually drain the battery.

4. drag and drop the ftf file to flashtool to flash the firmware.

**************************************

Note : do not leave the volume down key and install the battery ,till all the flash process completes.

**************************************

I hope this works.

Do let me know how does it go.

Thanks.

The procedure which I have provided does not go to fast boot mode.

but if you connect the phone to computer without installing teh battery and holding the volume down key the flash will recognise the phone untill the volume down key is pressed.

Once the flash tool recognises the phone drag and drop the ftf file and it will udpate the phone .

it looks like "the guy" changed phone version from Europe to Chinese. You must reflash it for example flash tool (not SEUS).You might have problems with working radio bands 2G & 3G when you leave this software.

flashtool should manage it, but I didn't do that yet. Please search the net.

Is your phone imei correct? Same on the label and in the sw (*#06#)
