Sony Xperia SL Broken

[lovemtucken]

I managed to pull the battery out and put it back in again but when i plug it in to the computer, the red light comes n and nothing else happens no matter how long i leave it for. When i hold both the volme buttons and plug it in, the computer makes a noise to notify me that something is connected. Ive tried using flashtool and every other program but nothing works. the phone wont respond to anything i do. please help!!!

If you connect it to the PC whilst holding down the volume down button do you get a solid green notification light?

I holding volume up+volume down plug usb (no notification light) but my pc found SEMC FLASH DEVİCE.(NOT TURN ON MY XPERİA S )

No, ive tried flashing a stock rom and it wont enter flash mode. The only thing it can actually do is enter download mode by holding the volume buttons and plugging in the usb. Other than that, whether i plu it in to a wall charger or computer, the red light comes on and stays on... thats it.

As i've said before Tolga if you can't enter Flashmode or Fastboot then theres nothing you can do to fix it
