my xperia ion hanged and i reset it using battery pull. i have done is a zillion time before but this time it started a loop . xperia logo appeared and then it shuts down and start again and finally it went dead. i sent to repair shop they said they will flash or something . we donot have xperia support centre in our area so had to take a chance. a few days back i got my phone back that it cannot be repaired.
now it is dead. when i pin in the charger a red led appears, even once i saw sony logo but then the screen went black again. sometimes during the charging a black light appears illuminating the screen for sometime. anyway reading the forum and searcing the net i am trying if i can fix it using pc companion. i do the directions as per this thread http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Ion/Detailed-Software-Repair-Instructions-using-Pc-Companion-Wi... . it recognizes my phone after a lot of time, my led turns green and i see update starting in the dialogue box on my laptop... but after a few miniutes my phones disconnects from pc. and i see a network error. i retried and now its giving me error 100. do i need to flash the cell phone?
