I hope you guys can help me revive my xperia S.
I have a strange problem with my phone and can't seem te fix it myself.
I can't boot my phone anymore.
I can get it into flash (green led) and fastboot mode (blue led) and can flash it, but without success.

If I connect my phone to the charger I only get a red led but it doesn't seem to charge.
The phone is recognized in windows and I can lock and unlock my bootloader and see the phone information.
but when I push the power button the only thing that happens is a green led for a second but nothing else.

This is what emma tells me
Xperia S JB 4.1.2 (build 6.2.B.1.96)

I have been searching for a stock rom, but can't find it.
Do you have a link ?

I get the following error when I try to flash it

i think you're flashing an incorrect firmware for your bootloader.
plz download this stock rom and test again

if you connect in flashmod, the led is green and stay green?

I can flash this one, but without any change.
When I push the power button the green led flashes just once.
But the enclosure where the cpu is located is getting a little warm, so I think it is doing something.

the green led must stay green.
you use win 8/win 8.1?

you must install the flashboot and fastboot driver.
I found this video
youtube.com/watch?v=gMra0hrZEfk
and it works :)

The flash ended successful so I don't think there is anything wrong with the drivers but the problem still stays.
when I push the powerbutton only the green led flashes one time nothing else.
But I think it's doing something, beceause the cpu is getting warm.

Is there a hardware diagnose tool for windows ?
