Xperia Z Stuck on a Repair Icon

[studioshash]

Hi,

I recently updated my phone with the latest update, it was working fine. Their was a marginal improvement in the battery backup etc. but after charging it today, i noticed the standby time being shown as only 10 hours in Stamina mode. I chose to reboot, and since then my phone is stuck at a repair kind of icon with z moving status bar. I can't find any reference to such incident online. please help how to fix.

guys just follow the instructions once you have downloaded sus

try and do a backup first

power button volume down to start

run sus  - and you will see an option "repair my phone" select it and follow instructions - it will reload the FW

you may get started in safe mode - volume down power button hold

GeoffH is right. SUS should work.

Just try SUS last night it work ! Thanks !

How is work ?

1. Download and install SUS.

2. Turn off your phone.

    ( If your phone dead and keep showing repair icon and can't switch off please hold the power and volume up button until the

     FIRST VIBRATE 1 time than SECOND VIBRATE 3 times after it will off. )

3. Open SUS and hold the phone volume down and connect the usb to computer.

4. After restore the factory setting online around 30min complete.

Good Luck !

The solution on Mac didn't work.

I had to reset and update my phone using a windows desktop using SUS.

Thanks GeoffH.
