But are you connecting with volume down when you are prompted?The phone needs to be turned off and needs at least 50% battery.

Same thing here it look off but is not...

Open back cover and force shut down with the tiny hole at the rear bottom

insert the tip of a pen for few seconds.

And now re-open with the main power button.

Everybody is saying to press that off button on back panel, but the thing is-that button makes that problem. It is broken and your mobile thinks that it is pressed.
I fixed this problem myself by taking a pen and gently pushing that button as fast as i can.
Looks like i am the only one who has fixed this problem.
hope it works. If not, take your phone to Sony.

Thank you very much!!! Pushing fast that button made the phone turn on. Also I noticed that button's cover was a little bit misplaced and that was the reason for the phone to think the button is always pushed.
