Xperia L died while updating

Hi guy,
While updating my Xperia L, my phone died. At first, I didn't notice that my phone died because I know that the battery is more than 50%. While updating, an error pop up on my monitor saying cannot connect to internet... and then I checked my phone. After I saw its dead, I'm trying to open it again but it won't. I tried recharging it but still won't open. Can someone please help to fix this problem, please.
TIA

  • Battery died while updating to OS X 10.5.2, Now won't boot!

    Dear all,
    Last night I went to update my PowerBook from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2, along with a couple of other updates that Software Update had downloaded. Half way through the installation my battery died, and now with the mains plugged in, the computer won't boot at all. I get the initial white screen with they grey apple logo in the middle and a spinning loading icon.
    Is there anything I can do to revert it and get it to boot up?
    I have a time machine backup from about a week ago, but have some work I did yesterday I would really rather not lose if at all possible!
    Many thanks in advance,
    Jude

    Lesson learned: never update on battery.
    If you can boot your computer with your OS disc, and if you have enough free hard drive space, you can perform an Archive and Install. This way you lose nothing but the 90-180 minutes it will take for the OS to install.
    If it won't boot off the CD or you lack the drive space for an archive and install find another Mac user and mount your computer's drive on their computer using FW target disk mode.

  • IPhone died while updating?

    I Updated my iPhone 3 awhile back.. Not iOS 7 but b4 that. After letting me go through the whole thing.. It totally died. After talking to iTunes support and stores around the city I finally got an honest answer from a guy from the Source. He said Apple let's you update on purpose so it WILL died therefore needing to go out and buy a new phone. This was only kept so my son could use it for games after I got my new phone. Is this true??

    I ended up taking my phone to the Apple store. He plugged my phone into his computer and it restored right away. He said if I would have tried a different computer it would have worked for me at home.

    there is basically one more thing you can do...
    1) Remove the battery, and then wait for about 20 min or so before putting it back
    2) Press and hold these three keys together -Green dial key, Star key[*], Three key [3]
    3) switch ON the phone.
    4) Do not let go the three keys until you see the WELCOME screen displayed and just let it complete the boot process
    and then try to run NSU again, if that doesnt help then run to the nearest Nokia Care Point

  • Computer died while updating itunes now it is gone

    how can I get it back?

    To use itunes to update your iphone you should first ensure you have the most recent iTunes version. Once this version is downloaded to your computer, you will then need to check to see that all anti-spyware programs are uninstalled from a Windows OS you may be using. If you are using a Windows OS that is likely why the itunes crashed (or missing an itunes update) Windows antispyware will stop the download of the necessary file to do the updates to your apple device.
    Good luck.

  • Battery died while installing Mavericks. Installation corrupted. Wont boot or resume install.

    Greetings,
    A friend just called in a panic. He updated to Mavericks without plugging his MBP in. The battery died while updating and the computer won't boot into OS. It boots back into the installer but won't continue. Disk utility cant repair it. Any idea of how to help him? (he has no backup)
    I may have him ship it to me, if it mounts on desktop I'll clone it, reinstal Mavericks, migrate his data.
    What generally gets corrupted when a Mavericks installation is abruptly cut short?
    Is there anything else to have him try before he ships it?

    If his Mac is capable of it, I'd try Internet Recovery.

  • Mail dying on "Updating Cache" with Gmail IMAP

    Many times every day, Mail appears to die while updating its cache on my Gmail account (IMAP). It works fine with all other POP and IMAP accounts but something with the Gmail account causes it go die. I have to force quit to get out of it and re-launch and, invariable, it happens again. Never when I am looking, only when mail is in the background (that could just be dumb luck). Anyone else having anything like this?

    I fixed this problem by doing a "manual" rebuild which included the following:
    - Archived my mailboxes
    - Quit Mail
    - Moved my Mail folder out of my Library folder
    - Moved the Mail preference file out of the preferences folder
    - Started Mail which now thought it was starting for the first time
    - Entered my account information
    - Imported my Mail folders that had been archived
    - Quit Mail
    - Copied back my rule, signatures, etc., from the Mail folder I had moved out of the Library folder to the new Mail folder.
    - Started Mail
    Everything now works fine for me.
    Disclaimer: This it the procedure I remember doing at work and I think it's correct. If you are going to try this make sure that you have backed up first and understand what you are doing.

  • PLEASE HELP ! While updating My Xperia Z1 , my pc hanged during the process and .

    While updating My Xperia Z1 , my pc hanged during the process ( so , installation of update was interrupted , guess it's same as getting your USB connection disconnected )and now the phone won't turn on .
    Its shows the Sony Xperia logo , then shows a black lit screen , and that's it , nothing else happens . I can only turn it off by pressing and holding the power+up volume button , but it turns on automatically if plugged in for charging or in PC only till it gets that black screen .
    I tried to flash it with a flashtool (Emma) , but it says phone locked , but since it can't even be turned on , i can't unlock it .
    It's a store bought phone and is not of any contracts with any mobile service provider or anything like that ....
    Funny you know ... my PC had to crash at the moment i was updating it .... my luck ....
    Anyways , now please can anyone tell me what i can do ? I'm sure there is a way i can fix it using my pc and other downloadable software , so please can some one help me how i can fix this problem ? I don't care if i lose all the data on it , i just want my phone back ....
    Solved!

    Problem Solved ,Thank you  very much !! 
    For those who might face the problem and stumble upon this thread after googling  
    Read above mentioned comments 
    Now here's what I did :
    Turned the phone off by power+volume key method , then plugged it in to the pc via USB and opened sony pc companion , entered Support zone , then entered the Update device option , then I Unplugged my device , only after doing this a window pops up with  Repair my phone/tablet in blue text , then i clicked on that and followed the simple instructions ..
    It's basically what Thommo said , only i was so freaked out at that time that i failed to follow his instructions to the letter  
    So now my phone is back to normal , and , it got the latest lolipop update !
    Problem solved i guess  but Thommo , i need to disturb you again with  just one more  question ,  since at the very beginning , the update process was interrupted , and now i got lolipop after  the repair ,without needing to update again ,  so has the lollipop been installed properly on my phone or do i need to use any other flashtool to re-install lollipop ? 
    again , Thank you ... 

  • My iPhone died while charging and it won't turn back on

    My iPhone 4 died while in the middle of charging. I had it charging on my speakers and when i left it, it was on 30% and charging. I came back an hour later and the screen was black and it would not turn on. I've tried holding the power and home button and tried plugging it into the wall to charge it instead of the speakers. If it matters, I recently updated it to iOS6.

    I am having the same issue.  I am currently in the process of trying to downgrade back to iOS5 until they can fix the issues.  There seem to be a multitude of issues with this latest upgrade.  I did find out earlier that unplugging your phone and holding the top button and home button at the same timne works BUT it must be unplugged AND you have to hold it a long time (almost 2 minutes for mine) and sometimes it takes multiple times for it to catch.  I was almost in tears and it finally worked.
    I am restoring the phone to the oldest iCloud restoration date allowed (unfortunately only 2 days ago) but hopefully that was before I upgraded.  I don't remember when I did it .  Hopefully this works.

  • IOS 6 freezing while updating.

    While updating my ipod touch to the iOS 6, it went to the start up screen and the loading bar was stuck at half way and it froze for about an hour and did not move. I restarted my ipod and put it on my dock and took it off and restarted it multiple times and it goes to either a blue, white, black, or a dark screen with a faint apple icon. I need help to get my ipod back on or how to restore it, because the computer does not recognize that my ipod is connected and I do not know what to do from here. Please help!

    My daughter got her iPod Touch 4th Gen stuck early Saturday morning while trying to update to IOS 6. Thanks to a post by you, I was able to get it out of the white screen and updated via restore function in iTunes. It tried to fight me though. When I got the iTunes logo with USB arrow, all was going well with restore until while the IOS 6 file was downloading, the iPod's screen went back to white. iTunes continued to download the update file (850 MB). I had to unplug and let the battery die again. I plugged it back in to get the Apple logo to come back on the screen. Note: I had to be paying attention when it appeared because it didn't give me long to go through the instructions in your post. I missed it once and I had to start over. What I had to do was hold the power and home button at the same time after the Apple logo appeared to get the iPod to tun off. Then I held the home button and plugged into the USB port on my PC and then the iTunes logo with USB arrow showed up. Initiated the the restore function and all went well that time because the file was already complete and ready when iTunes needed it. It can be frustrating, but don't give up. Stick with it and try to get useful information on the web like I did because the iPod is useless with that horrible whie screen. It got stuck on the Apple logo 2 weeks ago and had to turn to the web to get help on that too. BIG SHOUT OUT TO YOU SUPERMURPH!!!!!
