Anyone know what's going on with my phone?

It won't turn on. But when I attach a charger, the blue led comes up.

And can you turn it on?
if can, means the battery is at its stake.

No I can't. The phone vibrate for three times when I try to reset via Power + Volume up.

Previously the Phone did came alive for awhile with Sony Logo and then a loading screen then it just went dead from there.

Not sure what happened. maybe you can try to flash a firmware file and see if it's working.
take note data will be wiped as well.

When I try to connect to computer the device manager doesn't recognize the device. I can see the exclamation mark with the word "S1 Fastboot" there. Tried downloading some usb drivers but it just writes installation failed.

Is my phone hard bricked?

What I mean is try flash a firmware and see if it works. Download flash tool and see if your device is listed in flash tool when connected to PC.

Thanks. Phone is now back alive. thumbup.gif

I guess the flash memory in the phone is damaged. You have to send to service center. sweat.gif

I manage to flash it to generic firmware obtained from XDA just now and Flashtool did say flashing is finished. However, it's the same symptom again. rclxub.gif

I've got the software update notification as well when my phone is plugged into the PC Companion. Seems like only update through PC for now and no OTA. By the way mine is SG set.

Update to .270 to get that button.

Xperia Z1 update (14.5.A.0.270) changelog

– Ensured the lock screen / notification bar doesn’t indicate “no service” when the device has coverage
– Added a Sony feature; bringing back the “close-all-button” in the activity menu, so you can easily close all apps at once
– Unblocked devices with server policies (such as Exchange Active Sync for e-mail), to enable the new Lollipop lock-screen notifications
– Ensured the LED light is lit across all sound modes – and no longer offset by “silent”
– Made the necessary fixes to enable the easy movement of content from internal memory to external microSD card (something we saw affecting a few devices)
– Improved messaging functionality in Ultra stamina mode – some conversations could not be opened before in Ultra stamina mode
