I have this problem that my Sony Z3 wont turn on properlly. Yes I did try to use the volume up button/volume down and power (it does turn it off, but thats all it does) When I try to turn it on again it will say "Sony Xperia" on that black screen. I tried to use that off button next to the sd card, it does work and it turns the phone off but when I try to boot it up it gets stuck on that exact same screen. I cant use sony Companion because the phone is not reconized. Here is a video of my problem. Only 4 muinites.

Thank you
Hi @Galion,
Welcome to the community. I am sorry to hear you are having this issue. 
Can you please remove the SD card and the SIM card and try again?
I took them out some time ago
In that case, as you have already attempted the software repair and it will not proceed, I recommend you contact your Local support team to arrange a physical assessment.
My warranty is up and I need to pay shipping just so I can get a quote on how much it will cost me.....
is there any other way I can try to fix my phone?
