Sony Xperia Active won't start "all the way"...

[#1]

Hi!

My Sony Xperia Active won't start "all the way"...it just vibrate, after some seconds it lightens up and it says "Sony Ericsson" in the display, it lightens up some more a microsecond, becomes a bit darker and then totally black again, and after some seconds it lightens up and it says "Sony Ericsson"...and so on...again and again.

I have tried a lot: taken out SIM and memory card, start with and without them, start with and without batterycharger, leave the phone without battery for several minutes and then put battery in place again, connect it to my computer, start and hold volume high and low, push "house" "button" many times during startprogress...and so on...but I can NOT get it started.

Is there Any way to make a SE Xperia Active to do a "safe mode start" or what shall I do?

Any suggestions?

HELP!!!

Hi, it could be a software glitch .... suggest you software repair phone.

Here's the download link for Update Service, http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/. Download and install to PC/Laptop, launch it and follow on-screen instructions. This process will erase phone data completely.

omfg, I have the very same problem on my ST15i, and if this works I will kiss your ass bro! and yeah, I know it sounds gay. 'Cos I've been searching for this solution and out of frustration almost flashed my ROM. I don't know, it just doesn't want to boot

OMG IT WORKS! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I was soo scared, especially when I've read that for PCC you need SD card mounted. And the only way to do that is when your phone is on, which wasn't possible. I do not regret my lost data, as long as it's fixed. I guess I finally know what 'SUS' is for.
