hard reset doesn't work

[stasi]

Hello !

I have Xperia L C2105 . I had a pattern lock , wich after the phone ran out of battery just doesn't whant to let me in . I tryed google account , I tryed every solution I could find . Through android SDK , through some workarounds . Nothing works , I didn't have WiFi or mobile data on before the lock , so no solutions that require it will work .

I decided to just to a factory reset , but no combination of button holding works . I tried volume up + power , volume down + power , both volumes + power , camera + power , camera + volume up/down/both + power  .

I'm desperate , i'm open to any suggestions !

Just use SUS:

Charge your phone to 60% at least before.

You need to use SUS

Update Service (SUS)

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Thank you so much !

The update service worked , I tried PC companion before and it didn't work becouse the phone was locked , so I gave up on the software side , but the update service worked great , thank you !
