Xperia 5 wont boot fully, also startup screen is green instead of black

I cannot access my phone for some strange reason, when I try to access the phone it restarts, but wont fully reboot. So basically it keeps going round in a loop. Also the startup screen appears to be a bright green colour instead of black, 😫

You can start by checking if there is a faulty SIM or faulty SD card inserted, which was mentioned over here.

Next follow the path indicated by Sony Xperia Support.

Good Morning

Thanks for the response, I'm afraid none of those options worked 😞

That's a pity.

One last option:

Charge the device to > 80% and switch it off.

Open Xperia Companion, choose Software Repair.

On the next page tick  'My device cannot be detected or started, or is a SmartWatch 3'

Click Next and follow the instructions. (see the picture: Capture.jpg on the right)

Hope it works.

 

PS

When a device fails the normal answer would be: open the Support app on your device and tap 'Contact us', the smartest way to contact local support.

In case the software repair fails contact Sony Support starting here.
