Dead Xperia x

[Hermann799]

just bought my phone for less than a month ago. suddenly the screen froze, glitched a bit. looked like it was going to restart then it died. won`t turn on, when I plug it in a charger it the red light is blinking. Can someone explain what is going on?

That's odd, remove both SIM and SD cards > connect the phone to a wall charger > press and hold power & volume up for 10 seconds > let it charge for 2-3 hours > try to turn it back on

I've experienced a "dead" Xperia X too, it suddenly went totally dead. No lights or anything, and it wouldn't turn on, even if connected to the charger. I tried the solution with removing both SIM-card and memorycard, then pressed the on/off-button and volume-up button at the same time for a few seconds, and this made the trick! Thanks a lot 🙂

1,5yo xperia X here did the same thing and power+vol up worked

Tried this just now, and it worked like a charm.
