ok when i turn my phone on it get to the part where the screen is black and it says sony ericsson in the middle of the screen.. And thats as far as i can go... should i just connect it to my computer and update it using Sony PC Companion 2.1?

Reinstall Phone's software using PC Companion or SUS

You don't have to turn on the mobile

Follow the steps

________________________________________________________________

Backup everything as it will erase all data on phone (sms, contacts,apps)

Update/Repair your phone via PCC or SUS

PCC (PC COMPANION) – Repair your software with this .First do the setup without connecting your mobile to pc.(only connect when you are asked to).

Do it as follow >> PCC > SUPPORT ZONE> SOFTWARE UPDATE> REPAIR SOFTWARE (written with blue) 

PC Companion http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/

SUS ( Sony Update Service)  ... download and install it on pc and follow the on-screen instructions http://www-support-downloads.sonymobile.com/Software%20Downloads/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.12.5.exe

                  or

Problem with your PC

Have a go with SUS, it should work fine

If your phone is still under warranty then go to service centre to get it checked.

Otherwise there is an unofficial step that might solve the problem ( It may void the warranty )
