Hi, can you explain what happen before hang at your Sony Xperia J? Do you ever try to do hard reset with master format with above step options? Maybe you should try to do that because we will find out is there an applications problem or phone hardware problem
My phone wont respond to any form of hard reset. Any suggestions as it would cost more to fix then replace my phone if shipped.
Also to give an understanding, my phone ran out of battery life and would not turn back on after i charged it. Responds to no reset options or computer hook ups. When power button is pushed phone rumbles once but is about a min after i push it, i know this is to long. The phone then illuminates the bottom menu lights non-stop and wont power down unless the battery is removed. My phone was updating the last day it lived. -.- please help if possible..thank you
Usually if the phone battery is really empty, then you need to charge is about several minutes until the battery is ready to turn on Sony Xperia J again. After performing hard reset like my previous reply, but the phone still problem, then it is recommended to bring your Sony Xperia J to nearest Sony service center.
Hi, if your phone still can access the menu setting, then you can try to hard reset your Sony Xperia J with software menu above step. otherwise, you can do with other option step. By doing hard reset, you can make sure the phone is ok or not.

my Xperia J had auto restart problem and had gone to service center 4 times for the same problem
