I don't think you have a brick, and you definitely need to settle down. As long as you didn't flash a G4 IPL/SPL you should be OK.
1) Make sure you battery is installed correctly.
2) Hold down the power button for a couple of seconds before releasing it.
3) Try another battery.
Or take out the battery for like half an hour and then plug it back in
Good luck
thanks guys.i hope its work
but like anchilious did.i put another ohine without the battery.splash screen is goin on an off.but i i put the dead phone phone.nothing is happening.not even red light.but charging point is keep heating.its getting warm.help me plz

got a tmobile mda, i think i bricked my phone, it doesnt even turn on to boot screen or the 3 color screen after i pushed those 3 buttons..what should i do? thx in advance
Most of time is the battery problem. Try to find another battery and see what happen..
dunno, but i was flaashing my phone before that, it didnt die for no reason, i think i flash it a wrong rom or something, do u think i bricked my phone/?
Its hard to say.What rom did u used?? What PDA do u have?? Did u flashed it with battery on 50% or less?? Try to get in bootloader mode.
3-buttons? To get into the 3-color bootloader screen should only take 2 buttons. Press and hold camera button. Then use stylus and press then release RESET button. Bootloader screen should show up after 3-5 seconds, then release the camera button.

tried that few times, but doesnt boot up, but i dont its the battery, do u guys think its the hardware after i flashed it.
If you are absolutely certain it's not the battery, then it's possible it could be bricked for good.
However, if you had it in bootloader mode very long, a dead battery is very likely. The phone won't charge in bootloader mode. I don't think it'll charge with a bad OS flash either.
Someone once claimed he connected a battery directly to a USB port to charge it. You could always give that a shot.
Probably most importantly is which ROM did you use? Is your phone a G3 or G4? If it's a G3 ROM with IPL/SPL in it, then yes you will permanently brick a G4 phone with that. If it's just an OS by itself without IPL/SPL, it's almost impossible to permanently brick it.
If it's permanently bricked, I think the only shot you have is to reflash it with a JTAG which would involve disassembling the phone.
i flashed my phone many times before and tried many roms and they all worked fine, i have g4 phone by the way, cuz i can read chinese so went and downloaded and rom called english asian rom so hope i could read chineses on my phone, then while i was fllashing it i found that that it wasnt wm6 it was made in 2006, but was too late, after it was done flashing it, the isp nubmer was different from lsp version, for ex:isp says 2.26.xx then lsp says (2.21.xx i with "i" at the end) so i reflashed it back using love rom to wm5 but it doesnt boot up the screen stays at 3 color so i removed the battery see if it can reboot normally then it doesnt turn on ever...
by the way waths jtag can u post a link for me in the forum or its a website, do i have to pay anything?
Hmmm, strange, wizard_love should be okay for the G4. I think if I were you I would try charging the battery (or buy an inexpensive external battery charger) before worrying about JTAG. I don't know if anyone has found JTAG or SPI (similar to JTAG but fewer pins) on the Wizard, but I can tell you that using it is not for the faint hearted!
Here is how JTAG is done on an iPAQ:
http://openwince.sourceforge.net/jtag/iPAQ-3600/
It's a lot of work just to connect the JTAG, and if the JTAG points have never been documented, it's even more difficult (almost impossible) to find them yourself.
lol, it looks so complicated. well any way i think i bricked it, sigh what can i do without it....plz help if u had the same problem that im having, really want my mda back. ty for ur helps GnatGoSplat

If i buy a new battery and it worked, but the rom already changed my SPL number but not IPL version do u think i can still flash it back to normal rom by using love rom wizard
I think you will need a G4 ROM with IPL and SPL in it to get it completely back to normal since it sounds like maybe that Chinese ROM changed one of those. That is assuming when you said "ISP" you meant either IPL or SPL? Usually the OEM ROMs are best for that.
But after the very last flash you performed, you did see the 3-color screen? That would indicate the bootloader was still working. Maybe it's really bricked, but I would think if the only thing you did to completely kill it off was remove the battery, then it must just be a dead or weak battery.

yeah i the 3 color screen was there after last flash, with different either ips or spl version differ from each other, then i didnt no what to do so i took the battery out and plugged it back in then it wouldnt turn on.. but battery was fully charged when i last flahed it..
After the last flash but before the 3-color screen, did it do a full reboot showing splash screen, etc?
Did you try a hard reset (top 2 buttons, then reset)?
after i flashed it, it stays on that 3 color screen(that was love rom) and doesnt boot up or anything so i didnt no how to do a hard reset back then so i just took the battery out insted of reset it, oh actually i tried soft reset and it doesnt turn off so then i took the battery out
-also after i flashed to that chinese rom i figured something was wrong so i falshed back using love rom right after cuz it wasnt going to boot, but love rom didnt seem to work, stays at 3 color screen
heres what i did : ran love rom-->flashed chinese rom-->didnt boot-->ran love rom-->doesnt boot-->tried soft reset-->took the battery out--> doesnt charge or on.
My hd has suddenly gone dead. The battery light does not turn on even if plugged in. I have tried to reset while plugged in but nothing happens. Connecting to the pc also doesn't help. Also tried to put it into bootloader without success. This does not feel good. Any ideas what might be the problem?
might be the usb connection. could be loose or bad
Have you tried to remove the battery, and put it back in..had a littel problem like (during unlock) that would turn on, removed the battery for 10s and put it back in and it turn on.

HI Bro Iknow ur pain, this happen to my diamond also, one day just didnt turn on after unplug from my vista machine. Only thing I could think of is that maybe there was a short circuit somewhere between pluging to the computer with usb.
You will have to send it for repairs unfortunately

I tried this and it magically came back. The strange thing is that I had been taking the battery out and putting it back in many times ...but perhaps I had not left the battery out long enough.
The battery also seems full which is kind of strange since I had been using the phone all day without charging.
In any case, I will leave it charging over night and report back tomorrow.
Thanks for your help!

You'd better reflash a stock ROM and keep it for a while until you are reasonably sure that it was just a case and won't happen again.

Dead again
Well...it did happen again. This morning I found it dead again while plugged in. Unfortunately, I did not reflash it to stock rom. I can now only hope that I get a second chance to reflash before sending it off. Any other ideas are welcome.......

Looks like my hd has to take a trip to the factory.
Quick question: since I didn't manage to revert to initial rom does anyone know what the policy is on repairing an htc with custom rom?
That is indeed unfortunate...
What custom ROM have you installed? Have you checked in the thread if someone else had similar issues? And have you installed any particular program?
Also, you had no such issues while you were on the original ROM?
If you have this type of issues, trying to flash a stock ROM without being sure about the cause for the issues might be a little dangerous... There would be, I suppose, the risk that something might go wrong during the flashing process. And you would risk having a lovely brick...
Regards,
P.
I have installed Panosha's light version. No one else seems to be having this problem. Is there a chance that the battery is faulty? Can I have it repaired even though it has a custom rom installed?
Hi,
It might be a problem with the battery, but you could only try this possibility if you used other HD... by the way you have been using the wall charger or the usb cable attached to the PC?
Regarding the possiblity of having it repaired, under warranty, it could depend on the repairer itself. At the limit they could refuse to repair it under warranty, because a non-official ROM has been installed, and, specially, because a non-original HSPL is in place... but they could also overlook this, or do not notice it.
I would make sure it can not be "ressurected" and properly flashed before going to HTC service.

I have tried several times to resurrect it without success. On one ocassion I had the power light turn on for about 2 seconds then dead again. The only thing I have not tried is to try another battery. I will probably find one by tomorrow to test. Otherwise on Friday it will head to the repair shop...and fingers crossed. I will let you know what the repair policy seems to be here in Greece.

Your phone is not broken!
Duttys ROM does not have this problem. I have had the same with Panosha's ROM and with Touch of HD ROM. The screen goes black and only removing the battery brings it back.

I wish this were the case, but even after removing the battery I cannot get it to function. Even when plugged into an outlet the power light does not turn on, so it's clearly more than a blank screen.
hi guys,

Sounds like a death battery to me...
Try charging for one hour.., Then try to turn it on..
I don't think it does mathers if your phone is locked...,
Let me know the result
it charged my battery over 2h. nothing ....i can not turn on my breeze. the first minute i got a red charging light. like everything is ok.
i got no connection with my xp pc and active sync. the device manager can not detect the breeze. so i can not install any other boot program
any other ideas?
thanks
I had the same problem, it was hardware related though.
There are two little metal contacts that ground the battery cover, well one of them slipped though a little and was shorting pins on the motherboard. So fortunately nothing blew and it just was not turned on.
So obviously there is some form of protection from shorts that it will not power on.
Anyway check if it will turn on if only the motherboard, LCD and battery is plugged, without housing or anything else. Be sure that the back of the battery does not get into contact with the MB if you are going to try.
Good luck, hope you get it fixed..

Hello xda, I just want to ask what did happen to my G1, I'm just using it ordinarily everyday but a few days ago something happen, it cannot boot but only led lights flashing, I can't even reach the recovery or bootloader, is this a hardbrick or something? I'm using a froyo rom I forgot what rom it was and I also using the right radio and SPL combo required for that but I don't know what happen, It just can't boot. Help please.
Is it just blue led? If so then yes its bricked and you need JTAG, if not you may be OK, but as to what happened that's hard to say
May be a battery issue but with LEDs flashing less likely, try to get a PC to recognize, try charging over night and testing with PC again, try booting without SD or sim, try any button combo you can
no not blue

Hello again dem, since my phone can't boot, my laptop can't recognize it, and I'm confident enough to say that my bat. don't have any problem, I do have a universal charger and my battery are charging using it, one strange thing, I also have a cabled charger for my G1 which has a led light as well, I've tried charging it using that and the led light of my charger are blinking which means it is charging but the led light of my G1 was not blinking, I really don't know what happened to my G1, I hope you could give me some help, any way I tried to search for what JTAG is, but I think I can't do it since I don't have any ideas when regards to the hardware aspect of android, I'm even a noob on software aspect of adroid devices.
P.S.
I forgot to say this, sometimes another strange thing happen on my G1, whenever I try some button combo to reach either recovery or bootloader, my buttons and keyboards have lights but my screen is totally blocked out.

hi again dem, I don't think its on the battery, call me crazy or anything but still remember N70? I have one, though their battery differs in size yet their gold energy conductor or whatever they call it is just the same. Since the battery of the G1 are easily drained I need to have two battery but since I'm from Philippines I have hard time looking for battery of my G1 that's the reason why I used my N70 battery on it as a backup whenever my G1 runs out of its juice. Before I can successfully use my N70 battery ( I just place a paper or anything on its side and lower portion to make the fit right) but since the problem on my G1 occurred even my N70 battery are useless and unusable because it still don't boot. I know my problem is a weird one but I'm looking for a way to recover it without modifying or replacing its hardware. Don't have money for it. Hope you could help me with this. thanks.
P.S.
I never run any problem before using my N70 phone, its maybe because they have the same voltage which 3.7 the thing is their capacity. For you to believe me I attached here the photo of my G1
