Hello... My HTC HD2 refuse to come back on (Boot) . It happened when i was charging the phone the thunder storm strike and the light (power) in my house went off .....
When i woke up that morning the screen was frozen i tried reset and it refuse to boot at all... I have sent it to repairs and they tried flashing ..it wouldn't work ..
Help me please .. I beg you..
what might be the problem ???
Thank you
The problem is probably due to several thousand volts being applied when the phone was only expecting 4.2v, it is best to unplug any electronics during an electrical storm.

I know .. but now my HTC HD2 will not boot up and i don't know what to do
Why is this in accessories?
Basically, I'd say your battery is dead due to the high voltage going in to. Try get a replacement battery and see if that works.

I did try the Battery on my other HTC HD2 phone and it worked perfectly .....
I don't know why this is doing that .. I will try buying a new battery to see ... but if there is more options to try .. I would be very Glad ..
I put this info in accessories because i have a feeling it is not a software problem but a hardware problem ...
thank you for your help
Oh.The phone might just be burnt inside. You could try putting it in a fridge for a few minutes and see if that helps. If you're going to do that, make sure you put it in a plastic bag to keep all moisture out and affecting the phone.
Posting this in GENERAL might get you more help.
Posting this in Accessories is like going to a Toyota Forum and asking about engine problems in the Audio section.

I have been holding volume up for more than 5 mins and still that black screen with this writing is still not resetting
HELP ME ONCE MORE
thank you
Turn off phone, Hold Volume Up and press Boot while keep holding.
Then follow the instruction .
You're going to have to get a new one. There is no trick or button combination to unfry a circuit board, battery or screen. When an intricate electronic device takes a surge, it generally produces enough heat to destroy all the things that make the phone a phone instead of a shiny plastic box. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm pretty sure that's what boomboomer was telling you.

I know what you mean but any condemn phone will not boot up at all.. this one boots and states " The divice is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or tired to install an application from Untrusted Source...Press Volume Up to reset your device or Press cancel"
reconsider you advice
Can you put the phone in bootloader? If the bootloader works you can try to flash a rom from sd card (if you have hspl as well). Maybe it'll work.

Well if you get that on the screen why not pull out the battery or better still press the reset button behind the cover. Quickly hold down the volume down key and release when you see the red blue green screen (if you can get to this screen).
Tells us what happens.
You can also try holding both volume up and down keys down and at the same time push the power button. See if you get a reset screen.

Send it to HTC for repair, or claim on insurance.
The phone is fried, it is damaged, it is physically kaput.
like xaccers said, send it 2 htc. as long as the phone is under a year old they should repair it for free. I have sent my phone into htc for repair and was very pleased bc it didnt cost anything & they shipped it back free. i only had to cover shipping there. when you call they'll ask for the imei # to see about any remaining warranty and they will not do any repairs on the phone if it does cost $ without contacting you to talk about what the repairs will cost if any.

I posted this in another section by accident, hopefully this is the correct place...
I hope someone knows the answer or could help me out, I have been battling this issue for some time now.
It all started when I upgraded to cyanogen 4.2.6, there would be times when I would reboot the phone due to weird issues (unable to scroll in browser, slowness). Upon reboot I would be surprised with the tri color screen. I figured out that by holding down the VOL down button, it would work. (Like i said, WEIRD).
This method no longer works and the last update I ran was 4.2.8.
Here are the following steps I have tried to date: (to no avail)
1. Ran nandroid recovery
2. re-installed 4.2.8
3. Wiped, then re-installed 4.2.8
4. Tried installing 'signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721'
5. tried installing Tmobile g1 DREAIMG.nbh (RC29)
Essentially, I just need a working phone!!
At this point Im almost certain it is bricked, unless one of you highly intelligent guys can help me out!
Any help is appreciated!
Is there any text on this screen? If so, please let us know what it says, like I said in the previous thread, I believe you could be seeing the bootloader screen.
That is the bootloader screen you should still be able to flash a rom thru fastboot.
Does it look like the one on the left?

Your camera button is stuck, try to clean it with compressed air and rubbing alcohol.
Yes it is the screen on the left BUT ---!!!!
I have no idea why it did work, but I just tried:
REMOVING (never tried this) the SD card, booting into the recovery console, pressing ALT+L (load menu), then Alt+W (wipe), then reboot. Given I did try already installing the original dreaimg.nbh
I am now into the initial set up for Android. I will keep you posted on what happens next, as this phone seems to go FUBAR after rebooting.

Yeah, if you're getting that screen every time you reboot, your camera button is jammed (this is the most probable issue).
See, to get to that screen on a G1 you simply hold down the camera button while powering on the device (much like holding the home key to get into recovery mode). So it's VERY likely you've jammed down your camera button somehow, and just need to pry it up and clean the area.
well Im back again. Yes its does seem as though the camera button is being held down although it doesnt look like its jammed down at all. I can press like normal; would I perhaps have to pop the button open and clean with alcohol??
I got the button pried off and cleaned the area underneath. The internal button does not appear to be be pressed down, I can press/depress the button with no problem. Could this be an issue with the radio firmware? Known issue with Cyanogen perhaps?
--And Yes, I still see the Tri-colored screen as seen in the above picture on the left--
This has nothing to do with your ROM... might have a little to do with the Radio/SPL, but not likely. At most, maybe try flashing the newest radio, then the danger spl. Remember, radio first, then danger spl. (if you do it the other way, you have a brick).
But it is probably the button. The soft rubber that doesn't seemed pressed down isn't the actual button either, it is under that and should be a copper like bubble button. Don't think you can get all the way to that without taking the whole damn thing apart.
I believe I have tried flashing the radio firm, but not the danger spl. Where would you recommend I DL these from? Would it matter that I am running the original ROM (dreaimg.nbh)??
http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/
I got both files from here. Just to be double sure, flash the radio first anyways, no need to risk your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517593
This is the how too, note you will need either 2 SD cards(flash SPL, then pull SD and flash ROM from 2nd SD), or you will have to flash the SPL, pull the SD card and load the ROM on it, then the ROM... do not power down your device before flashing the ROM.
As well, you need to have a custom recovery flashed, not sure if you have that yet or not (assuming you have a custom ROM you have one already).
If you are nervous at all about doing it, re-read the instructions a couple times until you get the comfy feeling... nothing to worry about as long as you flash the newest radio, then the SPL, then your ROM of choice. Now might be a good time to check out someone else's ROM as well, I like dwangs personally. But if you do 3D games, ie teeter, you will hate it because it doesn't support 3D games.
I have my phone back to working condition now. First off, I want to thank all of you who have helped me out. I really appreciate this community! You guys are great!
All in all, being that pjcforpres told me to have the custom ROM installed, I first had to exploit the phone to get cyanogenMOD on. During this process, I believe it re-flashed the radio firmware and possibly fixed my problem. I could be wrong, but its what I like to believe.
I am a happy camper now!!
P.S. I did NOT end up flashing Danger SPL, I did not want to risk it now that I have a working G1....
Welp, spoke too soon... I am back to the Tri color screen again.
Is there a good tutorial on how to carefully take this phone apart? I want to do some deep cleaning on the camera button area.

I have been hunting around trying to find what to do about this, I have the screen on the Left when I hold the Camera button down and turn on the power.
Holding the Home key down and the power the phone appears to boot up the the Splash Screen in this case Rogers, and there it sits nothing happens.
Does anyone have a idea how to recover at this point. I don't believe its a stuck camera button because if I don't push the camera button and boot up I get the carrier splash screen and nothing more.
I believe since it says Serial0 it must be in some sort of console recover mode, question is how to get there and what to do. The USB no longer shows up when plugged into the PC, I've checked on linux and it does not even see the usb being plugged in so there must be some trick to connect to it.
Zarf
My phone is a HTC Dream from Rogers.
Same problem
Stuck at the tricolor screen..i popped the button out doesnt look like anything is wrong..i scraped at it a little..what else is it? or am i not doing it right?
Check the USB port/inside
I successfully cleaned out my phone by completely tearing it apart. There are a few manuals on how to do this , however I cannot remember or have any links to provide.
My USB port cover was broken off (I no longer have a G1), this may have caused dust and debris to enter the phone and cause havoc. I did find a long hair in the phone (?!?!?) which after removal helped remedy the issue.
hi!
bought this NC for my wife last December. For 3 months it was working fine, didnt root it and it was running on 1.0.
The other night, she told me that it wouldnt turn on, so I researched and found the power button + n combination. I charged the NC first and when it became green, I removed it from the charger and performed the power +n combination.
It turned on, Hoorah!
But this afternoon, my wife told me that the browser was taking too long to load. When I had a look, the screen was unresponsive and it was frozen already.
So I turned it off using the power button. When I attempted to turn it on again, I wouldnt anymore. Tried the power+volume+ and n combination, none.
Tried the 8 boots, by holding it at least 20 secs, none.
downloaded and installed the rootpack_X.tar.gz, burned it to an SD, pressed the power button, none.
tried pressing all the buttons but still none.
There is no power, black screen, nothing, zero, dead.
problem is I cant bring it to BN because I'm outside of the US.
I'm exhausted. Appreciate any suggestion, including throwing the NC to the wall :-(
Update
Charging it again... anxiously waiting for it to turn green. Will try to boot with an SD inside.
You using something other than a stock ROM? If so, your /boot is probably corrupted or formatted.
Did you format "SD Card" from the settings? On Nookie Froyo, Honeycomb, and CM7 (at least older versions) that would actually format /boot not the SD card.

Sounds like the same problem I'm having. Are you stuck at the red battery screen?
Here's a link to the thread I started. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996439 If you don't mind maybe if you could read through it and tell me if your having the same problem. This nc is also stock and never been updated like you and mine was also bought in dec.
losing hope
@jvillejoe
mine is totally blank, the screen is black, nothing. no red battery screen
when you charge it, after a while the light will turn green meaning the device is fully charged. when you press the power button for 1-3 seconds, no reaction.
@khaytsus
nope this is the stock ROM, i tried downloading and installing 128mb_rootpack-0.7.tar, but if you cant turn the NC on, i dont think it will boot.
what's bad is that you can't open it. disaster
thanks for your help guys...
It won't boot from the SD card either?
It sounds like what happened to mine. I ended up returning it. I couldn't pinpoint the problem because I had already rooted it and flashed a couple of different custom ROMs by that point but it stopped booting even from an SD card.
Luckily I could get it to boot up one out of every thirty tries or so for a few minutes so I managed to return it to stock before I returned it to the store.
Question, if you plug it into the PC then hold down the power button for ~30 seconds, does your PC make the "device connected" noise then immediately make the disconnect noise?

Oh ok so seems like your problem is not the same as mine. Just wanted to tell you another guy that posted on my thread said he opened his nook up and pulled the battery. Just a thought but if you have a stock NC then you might want to take it back to B&N or what ever place you bought it from.
My bro-in-law had this problem today, but we were able to get it back on. It's weird, almost like it thinks there is something wrong with the battery, at least that's what it feels like to me. I told him if it happens even one more time to take it back...his is rooted and CM7 on it. When we got it back on there was no problems. Gonna mess with it a little for him to make sure it doesn't happen again.

How did you place the rootpack on the SD CARD? Did you unzip it and burn the image or did you just drag and drop it?

Good luck. Best not do anything wrong or it's the dog kennel for you tonight.
My nook is dead
Okay, i installed cyanogen 7. i didn't like it so i wanted to reboot clockwork recovery, but my ook would just go directly to cyanogen 7 without getting to clockwork recovery menu. I finally just to deal with it another time.
I left it in the power outlet and I noticed for the very first time it didn't turn green.
Anyway, when i disconnected it from power cord, it would not even turn on anymore.
When I connect via usb to my pc, it recognizes the omap processor in other devices for a second before win 7 stops recognizing and it disappears from other devices.
What is going on? it's blank as it wont turn on.
please help!
If you have a SD card in the Nook try removing it and then try turning on the device. I bought a nook Friday and ran in to a similar issue. The device would not power up regardless of how long I held the power button. Once I removed the SD card it turned on ok.

Can we assume from this that you no longer have the NC unit? If you do, connect it to your computer and see if it turns on. I had this issue but using the cable to connect it to my computer caused the unit to turn on, and never had any problems after that.

opened it and made sure that all connections are good. but still no luck...

cant get the right size... sorry I only used a phonecam
I was using the Oden one click gingerbread method and I did the first part and it flashed fine but when it rebooted it went to a charging icon, not the fugumod icon. So, like a moron I pulled the cord since I could not restart it like the tut said. I then booted it up and it went into the fugumod screen. So I tried the 3 button technique and it did not work, it goes to a charging screen. Now I can't get to recovery or Oden to recognize it, so I can't flash it back to stock. Am I really bricked? I can get to the Fugumod screen like the Oden tut said, so is there any way to get Oden to recognize it without the 3 button to get it to download mode? Please help, this is my Mom's phone, I flashed it due to her wifi not working and she needs it soon. Much appreciated.
I forgot to mention, the phone is not detected by my PC. I've used 3 different wires, oem, htc, and a blackberry and it doesn't show up in adb at all.
Looks like you have the button combination locked, try to build a jig, here is how u can do it (worked for me) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841512.
Did u try with vol - and power or vol+ and power? Also u can try removing the battery, plug the usb connected to the pc with odin open, hold vol - and vol + and insert the battery.
Yeah, I tried every way I saw on here, Up+Power, Down+Power, Up+Down+Power, plug battery in while holding up+down, plug battery while holding up, down, and power, plug in wire while holding up, down, and only press power, etc. I'll give the jig a shot, hopefully that will work.

Should works, if you see signals of life jig must send you into download mode. Try to search how you can fix it just to be sure what are the steps that you must follow.
I tried making one from the instructions on here but the only response I got out of it was a charging screen for 2 seconds that disappeared, so I ended up buying one off of Amazon, it'll be here tomorrow and I'll let everyone know if it works or not. BTW, the title is sort of misleading, I am not blaming anyone for the brick, these things happen, I've been rooting phones since the G1, I know how it is.
Don't propagate ignorance... This is a "JIG"..

Since there are 6 it should be distinguished. We've worked hard to gain knowledge and talking ignorant once you are in the know is not acceptable. You can also use the 619kohm jig to access download mode via UART.
A bit more on the "jig". JIG is a signal name. It is an "Output control signal driven by the FSA9280A/FSA9288A and used by the processor for factory test modes". There's several JIG modes.
Grab the "GalaxyS Hack Pack" and see the FSA9280 manual for more.
It's not really big issue for me, I'll call whatever the proper name is. It's just that 95% of the users here have called the 301kohm version a "Jig" since it was introduced months ago. Until everyone has adopted the new terms, maybe cut them some slack.
By the way, I haven't been following your work since I've no dev, but just read through some of it. Very nice.
Ok, so the Jig didn't work. It just showed a charging icon like when I used my own Jig. It doesn't boot to anything, it pops up with the battery and then dies. Is this a hard brick then?
EDIT: I unplugged the battery for 20 seconds and replugged the jig, and it sent to download mode. Thanks for the help everyone, and I hope this helps someone else if it happens to them.

Hi everyone.
I hope that you are enjoying using your phone
Recently, 1st the water have reached my phone. Fortunately, the phone is still working perfectly. After maybe 2 hours of the water accident it start pressing "power button" automatically and then restarting several times. It run out of battery then I've tried to turn it on using "Power button" it was not working. Any way, somehow it turned ON !!. Therefore, I've installed an app to use volume up instead of the power button.
However, 2nd thing it fall down and I got the screen broken, the phone still working but after that, it run out of battery and it has never back live again. nothing appears if I click volume up or down not even the battery logo.
What I notice is that, for the first time I've seen the green led lamp notification in my Nexus 6. Find attached a picture.

Thanks FOR XDA Team.

First of all, the worst thing you can do after water damage, is to turn the phone on. I strongly suggest turning it off, and taking it to a repair center immediately. It needs to be placed in a dehydration oven and then inspected and cleaned by a tech. Water damage is serious and the effects can continue to arise after the initial penetration. Circuits can continue to short out and corrosion will form unless properly cleaned.

Most likely, however, after rereading your post, the phone is already fried and you would need a new motherboard or complete replacement.

Hi everyone.
I hope that you are enjoying using your phone
Recently, 1st the water have reached my phone. Fortunately, the phone is still working perfectly. After maybe 2 hours of the water accident it start pressing "power button" automatically and then restarting several times. It run out of battery then I've tried to turn it on using "Power button" it was not working. Any way, somehow it turned ON !!. Therefore, I've installed an app to use volume up instead of the power button.
However, 2nd thing it fall down and I got the screen broken, the phone still working but after that, it run out of battery and it has never back live again. nothing appears if I click volume up or down not even the battery logo.

Best thing to do with water damage is to turn off the phone ASAP and let the phone dry in a bowl of uncooked rice for about 2 days.

Hi all
I have managed to hardbrick my phone without even trying to flash it.
I have a white 128gb Mi 5 with an unlocked bootloader and (i think) running Cyanogenmod13 (but it was such a long time ago that i installed it - before global stable was out) I've always been happy with it but kept meaning to sit down and put global on it, but havent gotten around to it.
Yesterday i was using my phone, put it in my handbag, took it out ten mins later and it was completely dead. But it was definitely at 100% charge at the time as i had it plugged in on the train. No leds, no response, no screen, not recognised by computer or anything.
There have been a few instances when i pulled my phone out of my bag and the fastboot screen has been up and luckily i've cancelled it. I've been doing a bit of research and i'm pretty sure that i somehow managed to enter fastboot mode in my bag by accident and then corrupt it somehow?
I've been playing about a bit with it. (it's still under warranty, but I can't send it back, because it's got an unofficial rom on it)
I've managed to get it to be recognised on my laptop now by following a video tutorial which i'm not able to post because this is my first post, but it's from choimobile,vn and just in case anyone wants to know which steps i've made it to, this is the rest of the address, /threads/unbrick-xiaomi-mi5-repair-boot-xiaomi-mi5-hardbrick-pc-not-detected.
But i've reached a point that i can't go any further. In all the guides i've read, people talk about the pc recognising the phone as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 but mine doesn't. It just recognises it as "android" so then flashing with miflash doesn't work.
Does anyone know what else i can do? I'm a noob at this so if you could keep the explanations simple, that would be great!
Thanks
Angelina
Forgot to add... phone still connects to my computer fine, i can still see everything and can access the internal memory.

I'm pretty sure you can't actually do any damage in fastboot without being connected to a PC.
You say your pc detects your phone storage fine so that means it's either booted or in recovery. Either way, you should have some kind of display being shown so it sounds like your screen is broken.
Do you know what recovery you have installed? I'd advise you try to reboot into it (power off -> hold power and volume up) or boot into fastboot and flash twrp recovery.
If your screen never changes from off after restarting, it's likely the screen that's the issue.

Hmm, OK that's strange, i've not done anything that would break it, especially in that short period of time. But I guess it could be a loose connection or something. Although that wouldn't explain why there are no leds or why it doesn't respond to being charged? if it was a broken screen, everything else would work fine.
I could only see it on my pc after taking it apart, disconnecting the battery and using tweezers to connect 2 points on the internal board like in the video above. If i disconnect it, then plug it in again, it's not recognised until i use the tweezers on the two points again.
I've tried to reboot it and get into fastboot again, but it definitely isn't responding.
Thanks
hmm have you tried plugging it to power source then hold power button like one min..?
because last week my phone was just dead, and doesn't respond to anything, though it's slightly different because mine stuck forever at 9008 mode, yet still stuck there even though i flashed new rom
the only cure to wake it up was to attach to charger then holding power button for one minute
or you can try using DFC cable to force into EDL mode
Hiya!
Yes i've tried various combinations of holding different buttons whilst fully charged/discharging/connecting to computer via the test point etc
Thanks for the suggestion though.
Unfortunately, the DFC cable won't work, as that is what i've done with the test point method. It will allow me to connect the phone to the computer but that's as far as it gets.
Bumping this in the hope that someone may have an answer.
Your phone was dead because your power button kept pressing accidentally for a long time as you kept it in your bag, i too have the same problem and I showed it in service center but no luck they suggested me to change the motherboard...
