Hold power and volume up for around 15 seconds then try to start your device if that fails redo the 1st part and then let it charge for 2 hours and try turning it on again - If that fails then report back for instructions on how to perform a system repair

To perform a system repair which will factory reset your phone

Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)

Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the onscreen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process

If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

Download Perfect Flash tool by WMSHUA. Download an ftf file for the latest version.
Open the flash tool.
Now press the power and volume down button together and hold them till the red light blinks again. Then leave the power button while still holding the volume down button. Perfect flash will detect your device.
Now go to flash option and select the downloaded ftf file. Then click on flash.
The phone will start updating and it might be slow. Once it reaches 97%, From 97% to 98% will take bout 20 mins but don't unplug the device.
Once the flash finishes, remove the usb and turn on your device. The first boot will take time but now you have your phone back.

I recommend using this firmware:
