Sailfish X stuck bootin g on Sony logo

After my Xperia X with Sailfish shut down out of empty battery, it now fails to boot.

When I power it on, I get :

  • the warning screen saying the device is unlocked, cannot be trusted (sic) and will boot in 5 seconds
  • the SONY logo (black SONY word on a white screen)
  • after maybe 5 seconds, the white led blinks once
  • then nothing, the SONY logo stays forever

The only way out is to press the power button for 10 seconds until it shuts down.

What can I do to get out of this breakage ?
