Xperia ZR - Cant power on after overcharging for an hour.

I charged my phone overnight, the next day it was 90% so i kept it charging while I eat and having a shower. When I checked it the screen was turned off and i could'nt turn it on. I unplugged it and left because I have to go to school. When I got home I immidiately searched for solutions. I saw on the FAQ on Sony's site that I should charge it for 30 min. When I plugged it I saw the Sony Logo and the LED turned red but after a while the screen would turn black and show the Sony logo again and it kept repeating it until I unplug the charger. When I press the power button nothing happens. I also tried to let Xperia Companion repair it but it didnt worked.

I tried plugging it in the computer while holding the power button and volume up the light turned blue but the screen is black.

My phone isnt rooted. And I havent done any modifications to the device what to I do?

Thanks in advance Slightly_smiling_Face

just charge it using the power adapter for a few minutes (<30minutes). just ignore the bootloops.

then try to repair again software repair using Xperia Companion

@HelpMeLolzthe repair succeeded?

does it continue to boot loop? or when you press the power button does it vibrate?

ok, just try the process one more time,

1.) charge the phone for 1-2 hours, using the wallmount charger, ignore the bootloop

2.) then follow the instructions here. software repair using Xperia Companion, your phone doesn't need to be turned on,.

if this fails again, I suggest you to use Xperia Flashtool , google on how to use it.

or have your device sorted at your local service center Local support
