Hi,
looked for an answer to this problem in the forum but didn't find it, i have a stock xperia play, sim free running gingerbread 2.3.2 and i'm based in the uk and have a uk handset. My problem is although i am offered the 2.3.3 update, when i try to get it i get stuck at the preparing phone stage on pc companion software, the phone switches off then the software tells me to disconnect USB cable from pc and phone, then it tells me to check battery power level(phone is off?) is at least 50% (it is 80%)then says turn the phone off? leave for 5 seconds then plug back in whilst holding the back hardware button. After this the computer does 3 beeps (normally error noise) and i have to do this all again, don't see anyone else having problems updating? your help would be greatly appreciated.
Use SUSE! Should work just fine.
USe another computer if it doesn't work
and yes try http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...etailed/updateservice/xperia-play?cc=gb&lc=en
Before asking for help
i have narrowed it down to the computer not recognising the phone when it is off(blue light mode) i looked at device manager, says there is no driver for S1boot fastboot?
driver are on program files > sony ericsson > pc companion > driver 32/64bit
check there and install them manually
or check the pc companion in sony ericsson menu on your phone and connect your phone and press install
then install pc companion and let it do his work installing the driver.
check my mtpapp thread if you need more detail
don't clear mtpapp (your apps should be ok btw)
Tried everything now, still nothing happens after i plug in usb cable whilst holding the back button, what is actually supposed to happen after this point, i get the blue light, nothing else.

When the light goes blue, you are connected in either bootloader or recovery mode. If your device is not detected, go to device manager and install the drivers manually
Sorry double post
Are you connecting the phone via a USB hub?
If you have many usb ports on your pc being used, try to disconnect a few and plug the phone directly to your pc.
I had this same issue and it happened because my stupid logitech keyboard keeps messing with my usb drivers everytime i plug in a new USB device.
I unplugged the keyboard and the update went swiftly.
In order to enter flash mode, you ought to:
1)switch off the phone
2)remove the SIM card and sdcard (this is mandatory!),
3)remove the battery for 5 seconds, then put it on.
4)hold the Back button while you connect the device.
The device will shine with a green light. The blue light is used for the Fastboot mode, and you get that light if you:
1) Switch off the device
2) Hold the Search button (the magnifying glass one)
3) connect the device to the USB cable.
Hi all, thanks for your help but still no luck, i have tried all of the above on 2 computers, the same problem occurs, not sure what is supposed to happen when i plug the USB into the phone whilst holding the back button during update? all i get is a blue light on the phones power button. Nothing appears on the pc either??? i have done a full factory reset and tried installing drivers, is there a specific driver for entering the recovery mode on xperia play?
Sony Update Issues

Note: We have seen in some forums that customers unlocking the boot loader on their phones have experienced problems when they accept a FOTA (Firmware upgrade Over The Air) update. The issue has been reproduced and we are working on a solution. For customers that have unlocked the boot loader please do not accept the Firmware upgrade OTA.
I own an LG G2, i recently got this phone yesterday from a person on craiglist. Don't worry i didn't pay him i gave him my older phone i dont use anymore. SO This phone is practically stuck in Firmware Update (As i read that post) , i spent about a day and half figuring it out and what happens is that.
I CAN get into recovery its TWRP v2.7.0.0 by Turning off the phone first and then Holding Vol UP, Power, Vol Down at the same time until the LG Logo comes up and then i am still holding them down, and it says Recovery Mode please wait and bam TWRP.
But heres the problem i can't mount my OTG and i can't ADB Sideload. So what do i do from here?? this guy rooted this phone and soft bricked it i think? and he wiped the phone but i also did when i had the chance and wiped it completly via recovery.
The only way i got into "Download Mode" / "Firmware Update" was to take the back cover off and unscrew a few screws on the side and unclip the battery for a few seconds and then plugged it back in and then I held the VOl UP button and plugged my USB into the phone and the other end is in my PC. My phone says "Download Mode please wait" and then prompted with the Firmware Update screen. BUT my pc doesnt detect the phone whatso ever and i've already installed drivers and etc from this forum ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 ) its the 2015 method that i downloaded.
so what do i have to do, i havent tried using different usb cables, the port seems fine to be plugged in since in TWRP it says 84+ so i meant its charging right? help me out guys idk what else to do or flash or anything.

I think the methods leave out that you need to change your phone to com port 41 on device manager > ports in order to be detected. Then you need to unplug it and reconnect to computer when the program shows waiting for device, with the phone in download mode already.
Also, to get to recovery you hold vol down and power, when the LG logo comes up release power and hold it again until the reset screen comes up.
To get to download mode you turn the phone off then hold up while plugging the USB cord in with it connected to pc... This launches download mode.

Well you see man , I cant change anything in Device Manager since my phone isn't being detected. It didn't install drivers fully fully since my phone isnt recognized. Even in TWRP or "Download Mode/ Firmware Update" Nothing happens no drivers installing or anything even but it does boot it up to that point....and its just normal boot up i see the LG logo and my led goes from green to blueish in a smooth transition and it doesnt stop until i turn it off. The method i got into recovery is holding all those buttons down its not a problem for me to get into it. I also have another problem it doesn't seem to want to mount my usb otg by samsung.
what do i do
So i tried the otg route but I can't mount it. I have everything connected and once I go into recovery to mount usb-otg, nothing happens.
I just need some way to get a ROM.zip in my phone
Computer does not recognize my phone.
Stuck at LG logo unless I enter recovery.
Sideload doesnt work.
OTG doesnt work.
I've tried at least 4 different guides with no luck.
Why don't you manually install drivers from online?

ive tried that already and it doesnt list anything from the LG folder.
I realized the phone will say start the adb sideload feature. so, when i put the "abd sideload file.zip" command on my pc i just wait a few minutes and it says daemon not running on port 5037 and then start successfuly and then error :device not found.
it can seem to reognize my device wether its in recovery, or download mode or fastboot mode.
Try again in other pc that has never been conected to an LG Phone before. It can perfectly be a conflict with drivers installed in the OS.
I've tried man
AFter i cleaned the usb port in one of the chats or forums, i waited a day ovbiously without turning on the phone and cleaned the usb port with alchohal and a q tip and i plugged my phone into my computer and my PC detected something but it only says "Unknown Device" everytime no matter what pc i use it says that. nothing else. but before that none of my pcs would detect theirs a phone plugged in at all.

No there is no problem with your USB cord or port. You need to do following steps.

I tried to downgrade from Kitkat to JB via flashtool this morning which I often successfully flashed with the same method. But while the flashing is going on and almost finish the flashing (system.img, userdata.img, etc. are already flashed), there seems to be some problem and popped out that the flashing is fail. And then the device does not boot up. While I tried to reconnect the device to PC, the PC cannot recognize the device as shown in the picture. Unable to process any further method. Does anyone in this forum knows how to recover the bricked device like this?
The phone starts? In a black screen?
If the PC detects it like that the phone has some energy and connection...
Does anything apears on the screen? Can you go to the Recovery Mod?
Have you tried to force the driver installation on that USB item that appears on device manager?
Do you have access via ADB or fastboot?
Did you nottest in what partition did the error message appeared?
Please provide some answers to these questions so i can try to help you...

Nothing on the screen. Not able to boot into recovery or adb is not working. The phone is just death. But, when I insert the usb cable, the pc can detect it. I even approach the Customer Care here in Aizawl, but they cannot fixed. Even when I followed the instruction as per one xda member posted here, The qualcom hs - 9006/8 is displayed on the device manager and when I tried to flashed it with emergency mode, the result always the same. FAILS

Try this:
- Start GNQC with the phone disconnected
- Connect the Phone and see GNQC recognizes the QLoader
- If so, press power button until the phone vibrates
- Wait for the GNQC recognizes again the QLoader and press Download on Emergency Mode
Use this KIKAT ROM: https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B8H5JoBDpTnJMGE2QTJPR0FWX0E
This worked for me, i had the phone completly died, not even recognized by the PC, waited a day and tried again.
Once the QLoader is recognized your good to go!!
I'm having another problem after that, now theres no GSM/3G signals....
I need a EFS backup with the TWRP recovery.... No one seems to have

Yesterday i flashed my Jiayu S3 to lolipop (i tought) and i just bricked my phone!
After reboot it was just dead.. when i plug into pc with USB i hear the connect sound and after 2 seconds the disconnect sound. This keeps on going until i pull the USB plug. When i look in DeviceManager i see it refresh after every sound, but nothing pops up (unknown device or whatever). I deletet all usb drivers with usbdeview, restart pc but still no changes.
I tried with or without battery, but without it does nothing at all.. i tried holding Vol+ or - or both or with power button, but nothing.
Read some threads about unbrick and install correct usb driver for jiayu s3, but all the options they came with does not work on my device!
I'm a little despered now and don't know what to do.. i get the feeling that my 2 weeks old phone is dead? :'(
My pc has windows 7
Did the flash with SP Flashtool 5.1516
Did not untick preload in flashtool, i guess i got the wrong preload or something??
Please help!

Just flash it again, but this time with "Firmware upgrade " in SP Flashtool instead of "Download". Change from KK to LL needs reepartitioning, so firmware upgrade.
The reason why you don´t "see" the S3 any longer on the pc is, that the USB storage mode from KK, which is driverless for windows, don´t work right now on LL.
Once flashed to LL you will need to install a driver, for windows to connect to the S3.
@ Dior DNA:
No i can't. Phone does nothing with the buttons. Only diference if i hold Vol - then time from connect sound and disconnect sound is a little longer.. about 10 seconds. But still nothing happens.
@1testi:
Flashtools can't see my phone. I tried it a hundred times. With battery, without battery, with Vol - and with Vol +.
When i connect the USB cable i hear the connect sound and after 2 a 3 seconds i hear disconnect sound. This goes on and on until i pull the USB cable out. In devicemanager i see a refresh going on, but nothing pops up.
I'm realy despered on what to do now?

Why the SP Flashtool isn´t working any longer? You didn´t deinstalled the driver, did you? Just try to flash again with "Firmware Upgrade".
I don´t know a way to reinstall the driver in windows without the preloader. The only thing you can do, as far as i know, is to use a linux
pc to flash again. Linux don´t need a driver for SPF, only some rules.

Booting into recovery or flashtool I meant regardless of pc and/or spflashtool.
If I recall correctly:
hold volup and power boots recovery
hold voldn and power boots flashtool
If you can boot recovery then which one is it? Maybe you can restore something or manually flash preloader bin from there.
After the flash i reboot and then the connect and disconnect sound appears. So i tried differend things, but could not connect. I wanted to flash again, but flashtool did not reconice the phone and nothing in DeviceManager. That's why i thought to remove the driver and try to re-install it. But that did not help..
Holding Vol - or + button with power button or both Vol buttons with power button does nothing.. i tried to hold all combinations at least 30 seconds, but nothing at all.
I have no Linux pc or any knowhow to make a Linux pc.. or a pc to install Linux on..
One last thing you can try: remove the battery, wait a little, insert the battery again. Hold vol+ key, keep holding it and press power
button, while still holding the vol+. If you don´t see anything happening then you bricked the phone.
You will need help from a professional or at least from someone with a linux machine, sorry.
I'll try that.
You have any idea what could have caused the brick?
As i wrote above, moving from KK to LL with wrong parameter "Download" in SPF.
....and a not working recovery.
You should try this method :
darmowyinternet.net/forum/temat-poradnik-jak-uruchomic-uceglony-telefon-po-wgraniu-zlego-romu-test-point_383
unfortunately you have to translate before
Ok i tried that site with google translate and i could a little make up what they are saying.
But that is a very drastically operation, and i would like to give it some other tries before dismantling my phone.
So i googled and googled.. came here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889128
Had enough electronics lying around from my former 27mc hobby, so searched for the right resistors,
cut up a micro usb cable and give it a try... well.. nothing! Tried for about an hour and gave up.
Then i googled on Unbrick Jigs, but for what i read they are only for Samsung phones, so i gues the trick
with the resistors were also?
So googling again... came here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454004
Reading the tread and the comments, someone mentioned a download for "Mediatek Driver Auto Installer".
Downloaded that and installed the drivers. Plugged in my phone and... whoohoo!! Something is happening! :silly:
My devicemanager saw an "Alcatel single RNDIS interface". I unplugged and plugged my phone a few times to
be sure it was my phone. Sooo... one step further! :good:
Then i googled on this device.. came up with all sorts of network devices, not helpfull. Then googled on Jiayu with
this device. Came up with this tread: https://www.china-devices.com/topic...vcomm-drivers-onto-your-pc-win-7vistaxp-only/
It's a tread about bricked Jiayu G3 devices, but i thought, 'What the heck, lets give it a try!'.
I downloaded the "MTK Megapack - All Tools Here!" and unpacked. Wend back to device manager and manually updated the driver
of the Alcatel device. Show all devices - browse - wend to Megapack map and there were MTK drivers for the 65xx device.
And yess.. when i plug in my phone there's the device: " MTK USB Port (COM7) "
SP Flashtools sees my phone again! :good:
Tried to flash a stock preloader, but got an error: "BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032) – [EMI] Enable DRAM failed!"
But for now that's a problem for tomorrow.. it's almost 2:30 and i have to got some sleep!
(sorry for the misspellings or telling things not clear, i'm tired and english is not my main language)
Grats!
You can google the error. This leds you in the right direction.
It's alive!!!!!! :laugh::silly::victory:
Because the kitkat stockrom i downloaded gave me the same error over and over i searched for something else.
So i downloaded TF Extreme lolipop 5.1 this morning and give it a try. And all went well. I pulled the usb plug and
pushed power button.. only vibration but nothing. Then pulled the battery and after few seconds put it back in
and try power again. Only 1 vibration.. then tried Vol + and - combinations but nothing. (dammn!)
Then plug the usb in and i saw the battery icon.. it was total empty! (because of a week trying).
So now it's charging and i hope it starts, can't wait!!
Thanx all for the effort in helping me out! :good:
Edit: Ok, so i could not wait and hit power! It shows green screen with Jiayu S3 logo and text "New Load". So i guess it's prepairing for first startup!
my s3 basic is not charging when on.. also when connected to pc thru usb, ipc shows device malfunctioning ,and there is no indication on phone..I try to connect to sp flash tool also no success..same error"usb device not recognized pops up every 2s.everything else is fine..Any method to upgrade to 5.1 now on official kk
Kinda need help, happened something similar
It happened something similar to me.
I flashed the whole ROM, bootloader included, I was very sure that my model, Jiayu S3 3GB ROM + 32GB RAM, was the correct, but still bricked my phone.
There's no problem at all when I plug it into my PC, I installed the lastest MTK drivers on windows 10, having to disable the signature enforcement.
The problem comes when I start flashing. I only mark the bootloader, then I press "Download" (on the lastest version of SP Flash Tools), and plug the phone, with the battery in it (I've tried without battery, pressing all possible combinations and does nothing), when I plug it in with the battery and pressing no buttons, the driver is detected as MTK USB Port. That's a good thing I guess. But It does not pass from the red bar, and gives me the known error "Enable DRAM Failed".
I've tried to google any possible solutions, reinstalling other version of the MTK drivers, on different versions of Windows, with other versions of official ROMs, and the result is always the same.
The only thing that's left to try is flashing it with an Ubuntu machine, which is something I do not expertise to be honest, but I'm gonna gather some info and try to do it.
However, if someone has any idea of what I might be doing wrong (excluding the part when I flashed the bootloader, I'll never do it again), I would be really grateful for any kind of help.
Thank you!

I have learned to never flash the original preloader again.

You're right, with the 32GB rom version (which is still unavaliable for public use) it worked! I still got it here, so anyone feel free to ask me the link too.
Thanks to xtyphoon and Dior DNA and everyone who made this possible, if you ever come to Girona city, I'll buy you a drink ;D

Hi,
A friend of mine gave me his LG Spirit H440 with the boot error: Secure booting error
In his words he tried to update the software, the phone started to lag and after a reboot the error occurred.
The guy is simple user so installing custom recovery or rooting are out of the question.
Here is a video I made of the problem:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fONioh6uNms
After removing the battery the phone starts for 2-3 seconds with Secure booting error and then powers off. After that it cannot start again until the battery is removed and then everything repeats.
I tried to connect it to the PC with Windows 8.1 and installed LG drivers, but nothing happens. It's not recognized.
Also tried to enter download mode with Vol Up and connecting the USB cable, but again it just displays the error and shuts down.
Is this soft or hard brick? I'll be grateful for any help and guidance.
Try to set it in "upload mode" and flash stock rom kdz

how did you solve this crappy error??
No I didn't manage to find a solution and no one was able to help me.
I returned it to my friend and he bought a new phone.
Sorry.
1. Power down the phone.
2. Connect USB cable to computer.
3. Hold Volume DOWN and insert the USB cable.
4. ??
5. Profit.
