Xperia mini pro x10 won't turn on after battery drain during update.

Hi, the battery of my xperia mini pro got depleted during an update attempt, and since then it won't turn on, charge, nor be recognized by my computer through the USB cable connection. Hence the PC companion won't recognize it as well. It doesn't vibrate or turn any lights on, just gets a little bit hotter when connected for a long period of time. Any ideas on how to recover it?

take the battery out, w/o the battery press and hold the power button for few seconds, leave the phoen w/o the battery for 5 minutes, then put it back on and connect it to the wall charger. check if the LED turns on.

if it does let it charge for an hour, remember before any update your battery should be at least at 50%

after the hour use SUS to repair/update your phone

Done the procedure. It is now at the wall charger. No lights on, and it won't turn on either.

do you have any other micro USB cable? or a battery that you can borrow?

Yes, I do have other micro USB cable, and when I borrowed a battery with charge, the phone vibrated when I tried to turn it on, but nothing happened afterwards.

Ok, done it. It said it successfully updated, but when I attempted to turn it on again, it only vibrated and nothing happened.

the screen probably went off, you might have to contact Sony Service Center, there's nothing else you can do to fix it. Did you dropped it or spilled water on it?

after you turn it on, try to call it and see if it rings.

Well, if that was the case, wouldn't the LEDs turn on and make sound perhaps? It wasn't dropped nor wet. It does not turn on.
