Same problem with my Tablet Z.

Ich can´t turn it on.

The reset Vol- and Power does not work. I tried it several times.

Wenn I plug in the charger (meanwhile about 4 hours) nothings happens, no red lights appear. The charger stays cold.

I tried the charger on my Nexus10, there it works. On the other way, the Nexus-charger doesn´t work on the Sony.

I tried to conect the tablet with my PC but this fails, too. The PC does not recognice the tablet. I cannot conect with the Sony Update Software and the PC Companion.

Maybe the batterie is dead or the USB-Port is damaged? Is this a well known problem with sony products?

Hi lazy74 and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

This is not a common problem with this device. Given what you have described I would have to advise you to contact your local Xperia Care team so that they may assist in arranging an assessment of your device.

Exctly the same happened to me yesterday. I checked my charge lead on other devices and it works perfectly. None of the switch power on while pressing this, that or the other works. There is no sign of life. I was just about to by the Z2 but rethinking completely now.

Hi,
I'm facing the same problem from yesterday.
I tried pressing power and volume up buttons, repair with pc companion, flash an ftf file that made before on flash tool, charged it for more that 2 hours with no use.
the device is totally died, I can't boot, get into recovery, flash mode or fast boot mode.
And for people who are saying that it get back to life after day or tow, should I just wait?

Please Sony explain what's happening and what should I do
