Before using the companion app be sure to have 100% battery. And yeah, try what uliwooly said.

Hey bud, greetings, listen I ran up on the same problem with updating the latest update of Android Lollipop a couple of days ago and I havent gotten my phone to work. I´ve tried the pull battery simulation, hard reset, 120 second and repairing my device with xperia companion as well as sony pc companion. I get the 0x00000064 error code and checked every possible trick from sonymobile support page as well as other tips from the net but nothing. What do you suggest I do next ol´pal. my best regards, JoelRdzHdz1982

Does your computer has a firewall and/or antivirus?

yes, i added sony pc companion and sony mobile update engine to the firewall access but it didnt work. I deactivated the firewall and still nothing. Could it be a problem with the hardware (phone battery) maybe? I just got the phone a couple of weeks ago, its practically brand new. Maybe the phone overheated and damaged the internal battery or something. What else do you advice?
