Dear all, help needed!

I cannot start Bluetooth, my phone will go into boot-start loop (only can see Sony and Xperia on screen).

Is there any solution?   Appreciate your help!

Hello Nabeel,

I am also facing same problem. I have Sony Ericsson Arc S LT18i model.

Recently for first time I switched on bluetooth and it went into boot-start loop (Only can see Sony and Xperia on screen). How can I go into my phone now.

It contain important contacts which i need desperately. Any suggestions to go into recovery mode and close bluetooth.

I am ok not to use bluetooth in future but desperately want my phone to turn ON.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

I had the same problem before, actually this error caused me to repair my Xperia Arc S via PC Companion thrice already. Too bad if you haven't backed up all important data on your phone before this happened. As experienced, I'm no longer using the bluetooth function. I also hope Sony could address this problem.

ravs77 I'm afraid there's no way to do that

Try using safe mode.

Take the battery out and reinsert it , switch it on and start pressing menu / option key again and again.

See if that helps you
