Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

Does the volume down key feels normal or is it stuck in a pressed mode? Because when pressing and holding the volume down button during start up will make the phone start up in safe mode. 

You could try to press and hold the power button and volume up at the same time until the phone vibrates to see if you are able to start it up normally afterwards.

actually i cant use the vulome down, only the volume up is responsive, i try to turn it off by pressing the power button and the volume up then it vibrates three times and turn off, then i satrt it up by pressing only the power button but still it is on the safe mode, i tried to turn it off and start it up just like what you said by pressing power button and volume up but it wont start up Slightly_frowning_Face only pressing the power button can start it. how can i fix this? is this about the malfunctioning of the volume down key? can i take my phone to repair shops so they can root it into normal mode?

@lloydi,

Unfortunately you have to go to an authorized service center, because that is a hardware issue.

Contact your local Sony Xperia Care first.
