    Xperia U will not turn on after battery died

    Hi,

    My daughter was playing Cut The Rope on my phone - my battery died last night and i plugged it in to charge all night - The red light came on but no charging sign.

    This morning when i went to turn it on it did nothing. Ive tried everything that has already be advised on this forum. The odd occasion the backlight comes on and thats it.

    Tried

    - Wall charger, USB Charger, Different charge

    - Tried the Charger, Power Button & Volume up button

    - Took battery out at least 100 times

    - PC companion (didnt recognize)

    I found several post about this and no fix?

    SUS=Sony Update Service.

    About the safe mode for Xperias, I think its Power On with volume down, but please be sure using Google.

    While powering on the phone press menu button.(You can try tapping ) If the phone vibrates after pressing the button it is successful and a safemode logo will appear on the UI

    Re: Xperia U will not turn on after battery died

    This seems a very weird problem .Try Repairing via SUS/PCC. or perform a factory reset after going in safe mode.

    Note:This will remove all the data.
