Dear Xperts,
I have been using xperia ray for about more than one year.
Today i want to update the software from GB (2.3.4) to ICS.
During the time of update(PC companion), when computer installing software to mobile, it shows "installation failed".
After that i alos try Sony update service but got same message.
Now i can not power on my mobile. If i connect charger, then nothing happens. But if connect to the computer then only Green led light.
Note: I tries to Hard reset by pressing Power+volume down key but nothing happen. Then press power+volume up key then Blue led light.
Whats happen... Plz plz plz reply me..
I suggest that you remove the battery from the phone for a while. Put it back in and charge for a couple of hours using the wall charger. If you still can't start the phone I suggest that you try to repair the phone using PC Companion:
http://www.sonymobile.com/update
In PC Companion, press start on Support Zone > Start on Update the phones software > Press the blue link that says "Repair phone". Do this without the phone connected and then follow the instructions given to you in the program.
Dear Alexander,
Thanks for your reply.
My phones battery is full.
I do as per your suggestion. There are 4 steps in PC companion: 1.Start 2.Prepare 3.Update 4.Fininsh
In the stage of "Update" , it shows following message:
"An error has occured and the phone software update was cancelled.
Your phone/tablet may be damaged.
It is recommended that you retry and repair the phone/tabet with the latest available sotfware.
Click retry and follow the guide."
This is very unfortunate, plz help
You could also try to update/repair the phone software using Sony Update Service instead of PC Companion:
Thanks for your reply.
I have also tried to SUS but it also shows installation failed !
PC companion show the following message:
"An error has occured and the phone software update was cancelled.
Your phone/tablet may be damaged.
It is recommended that you retry and repair the phone/tabet with the latest available sotfware.
Click retry and follow the guide."
If i close the message then it shows:
Sony Update Engine Failure (error 100)
I am very warried about my hardware, is there any problem in ROM?
Note: When SUS/PC companion wants to connect the phone by pressing volume down key, my phone can connect without pressing the volume down key and green led light.
Every steps i followed as per SONY recommendation but why this happens?
I have no warrenty.
Plz help.
Dear Alexander,
I also use flastool (v0.9.13) and official ROM (4.1.B.0.587) for xpreia ray but failed!

What is the problem?
Hi
I have had the exact same problem. I have also tried to update the software for the first time since I first bought the ray.
I have also tried the solutions suggested but it still wont work. Please could you advise how I get my Experia Ray to work?
Or whether anone knows what a possible solution is to reboot/reformat the phone?
Thanks
In that case I would suggest to try to update/repair the phone software using another computer, perhaps on another network.
If you still experience problem I would suggest you to have the phone examined at a service center. Please contact your local Xperia support team for more information:
