Hi everyone. My first post after about 48 hours of reading and trying to fix this problem on my own. I think I've tried about everything. I'm new at this stuff so bear with me.
I have a Xperia z3. Rooted. I had an issue with a locked safe mode and I flashed the phone with some modem file which ended up bricking my phone. I've followed just about every thread related to getting a phone out of soft/hard bricked state. What it comes down to however, is the fact that my phone does not communicate with my computer in any shape or form. It does not show up in device manager in any way. I do think it charges....but not even sure of that because I have a constant red light.
Basically, as you'll see in the attached screenshot, I'm at this stage. I've charged my phone for over 24hours. The red LED is lit. When prompted to plug in my phone, I do so with the volume button pressed down....but nothing happens. I've done the elastic trick and had it attached over night. I've done a hard reset, discharged the battery, and charged to red led and tried again....but nothing. Phone is not recognized whatsoever. I've tried different cords, different computers, different programs to no avail. I'm at a loss as to what to do.
Ps. I've followed instructions on how to install Flashtool properly, with Flash Mode/Fastboot and Xperia z3 drivers.
What to do next? Any suggestions :confused::confused::confused::confused:
