My xperia play wont boot, It only flashes a red power light only when charging. Previously my battery ran dry now when I charge it only flashes a red light. I tried charging it but no difference. I tried another battery it still won't boot, I went to the extent of trying my battery in another xperia play and the battery works perfectly in it. I'm stumped plz help

I have a stock device that has never been flashed or tampered with. Does anyone know what the flashing led mean?

If it's never even been rooted, then you should take it in for repair. Maybe a hardware issue.
Maybe if he researched but oh well, this what I have and sometimes it indicates a hardware component is damaged meaning find out what it is,
you should:
Go to your phone provider and ask them do NOT MENTION ABOUT ANY ROOTING OR BL UNLOCKING.

Find out what problem it has .

Or never use it again (Dont do it)

In my case the digitlizer "Screen" is broken, because back in march I used to boot my phone and the screen wouldnt sometimes work of course there could be another problem but...

Yea I realised I tried turned it on with the battery in the wrong way. I realised it didn't come on and when I fixed the battery right it still wouldn't come on. It just kept flashing the red light only when I tried to charge via USB or wall charger
