Reboot loop in Xperia ZL after update to Lollipop

The reason for my message was to make a query on the operation of Android 5.0 LOLIPOP
What happens is that the update came to my cell last Tuesday and happily settled, but since then the cell failed and refused to turn over

At first lasted a while on and off, there was only work if plugged in, and ultimately did not pass the start to turn the Xperia, he went off and returned to the logo appear, I had to force shutdown the auxiliary button the back of the cell
Not to do with my problem, I wish they could give me an answer, I have no access to it in Sony PC, so I could not do a backup or restore time cell

Before putting a new battery in my sony xperia zl, I did a lot of research online on how to reset a BMS of a sony xperia zl and contacted some people who know a lot about batteries (Battery University) online with the question how to reset the BMS of my xperia ZL. They told me that it impossible to reset the battery, so the only logical conclusion is to put a new battery in, and therfore putting a new BMS in your phone, because it is located on the battery.

I have fixed my sony xperia ZL by buying an online battery and completely screwing the motherboard out of the phone, to replace the battery. Before buying an online battery be warned that there are many fake batteries on the market who look exacly like an original one. I bought mine by looking very long on the internet and comparing a lot of batteries with the one from my phone. If you don't want to look long after a battery I can recommend this site, because it really are original batteries (or at least very good fake one's, because I didn't notice any difference between my battery and theirs.)

The only thing you can learn from this is not to install another deathgrade from sony ever again, except if you want to buy a new battery and disassamble your phone

This is the page I used to disassamble my sony xperia zl (they tell you in a pretty good way how to disassamble your whole smartphone)

I hope that this can be of any help and that you don't have the problem of malfunctioning devices any longer, so you can all enjoy your sony xperia zl.

same thing here with a Z , Lollipop killed it, and now i am out of luck, because i am out of warranty period in canada.  Funny that this phone has a 2YEAR warranty in europe, but not in north america... shame on you Sony, i used to love your products.

still no solution on this after so many days, all solution are third party based which needed expertise in hardware like changing battery and wire connecting but the thing is sony managers dnt bother to give any solution , just saying there pitch repair with pcc, i was like rofl how man, just do one yourself i will give you that phone for free, i request the sony staff to give us the right direction and find the solution of this.

I have had the same problem a few times before and was able to get my phone to start and then used PCC to do a fix to wipe my phone and that worked. This time couldn't get anywhere past the Sony Logo screen.

I just got my battery replaced and everything is great. Phone charges better, battery life is much better again. Crappy but very happy again!
