Hi, recently my extUSB broke down, so I was unable to coonect anything. My friend changed the connector in proffesional way with IR gun. But now Kaiser won´t even boot up, no vibration on startup, only green LED is lit up.
I bought D2, but I am curious if there is any way to fix it.
Thanks in advance
What does your friend say?
What happens if, while holding down the camera button (on the same side as the power button but further down), you press the power button to power it on - do you get a stripy screen? If you do, you can poke the stylus into the reset hole to reset the device out of the bootloader screen. What did the friend have to say about it - personally I'd much rather have a TyTN II which boots and works fine except for a broken USB port (I presume it was working fine before the 'repair'), than one with a shiny new port that won't work at all.
Nothing happens it looks like it is absoluttely dead.
The USB port was faulty, that was reason, why I let it change.
Well, it is strange, but actually I am very satisfied with with D2, even more than with Kaiser...
Well I suppose you could always get an expert to look at it but if its motherboard is damaged (or there's other hardware damage), it may be more expensive to repair than it's worth. You could see what your local HTC people have to say about it.

Or you could sell it in the market section, plenty of people that would like to get a crack at fixing it or use it for parts.
Hi, I just encountered the very same issue. I know I'm ressurecting a very old thread, but I rather do this than creating a new one
I flashed my Kaiser with Android about two months back. Everything was quite stable, no hardware issues. Suddenly, it won't turn on.
When I plug a charger in the extUSB, the orange LED won't show up. And if I try to turn on the phone, the green LED shows up and stays solid. However, the short familiar vibration isn't there and also the screen remains black. Nothing was wrong with the USB port. I tried multiple chargers...

Have you tried to reflash or hard reset?. Also maybe your battery is gone..try another one.
Some things to try

I realise you cant flash if it's not booting but if your battery has sufficient charge remaining (won't work if it's flat) it'd be worth trying a hard reset using the D pad key + stylus in the hole method (can be done at switch on time without needing a full boot).

How do you know that a fault hasn't now developed with it - I wouldn't rule that out at this stage. Have you tried a known good battery that is fully charged in the phone also is it the original charger you are trying (not all chargers with the same plug are compatible)? Are you able to get the bootloader screen to show and if so, what does it display?

No bootloader, no nothing - just black screen (there's not even a hint of backlight). I'll try a different battery today.
I tried using my old AC charger, my colleague's AC charger (for TouchPRO2), USB cable... the orange LED still doesn't come up.
What's the hardreset using Dpad key? I tried holding the power button + camera and also holding the two "context" keys (above explorer and messages buttons) and touching the reset button with the stylus.
I'll see whether a different battery will do the trick.
Thanks a lot for all your suggestions, guys! Much appreciated!

The context key one you mentioned is what I refer to as a D Pad hard reset. The one where you press the power button while already holding down the camera button is how to get into the boot loader - it's all explained in the Kaiser wiki. Sounds like another battery is definitely worth a shot - especially if you only have one (I have 3 for my Kaiser and on some days with heavy GPS use, I need all of them). What happened between it working and not working - what were you installing or doing with it?

I tried another (fully charged) battery from my gf's Kaiser today. No change. When I press the power button, the green LED shows up and stays solid (no blinking/flashing). Screen is black, no short vibration. I tried all sorts of hardresets and also tried to get into the bootloader. No luck.
Also, I took my multimeter and measured voltages on the charger, the battery and the pins in the phone where battery resides. Everything seemed to give a correct voltage. So it's really not a power issue
Thanks for all your help, but I'm afraid I have a total brick in my hand.
My Kaiser
Hi I have a HTC Kaiser I bought the first week it came out and it was f=ine for quite a while but 6 months ago it stopped working. It'll go to bootloader but won't flash. When trying to turn it on it'll go and just get stuck on the splash screen. I figured it was a battery because I'm very hard on my phones but I just got a replacement battery last week and all 3 of my batteries act the same way. I may have been trying to flsh went it went down it was a few months ago so I can't remember.
--- Other things to note
My Kaiser got wet and I had to have the usb port replaced and the dpad replaced. The usb acts fine but the middle dpad button does not work
The charging light will stay orange or green after I unplug the charger
After reading for the last week I think its either bricked or maybe has a bad hardspl on it?!?
Thanks in Advance for any help you guys may give.

Time for it to visit the same phone repair shop (or HTC) again for an assesment/possible repair if economically viable. If it's only recently got wet, you may be able to catch it before corrosion sets in and causes any damage but if it's not dryed out/cleaned quickly, the damage (from the resulting corrosion) will eventually show up (possibly in all the ways you've described).
I don't use my G1 anymore, but I'd like to get some ics on it for ****s and giggles. Unfortunately the phone seems to have forgotten how to work.
I was happily running CM 5.0.7 or somesuch a while ago, when it decided to just power off and not turn back on. After pressing the power button many times it magically came on again... for 15 minutes. This went on for a while before it flat out wouldn't turn on at all. I thought it was the battery, so I got a new battery. This didn't help.
So I put the phone on a shelf, got a new phone and forgot about it for a long time. Then one day I got curious. I plugged it in and sure enough the orange light turned on. After it fully charged, I booted it up and put whatever the news CM version was.. 6 maybe? Anyway all was good, for about an evening. I pulled the battery and put it back on the shelf. Now that ICS is out for it, I'd like for this phone to work again. I just plugged it in and let it sit. The LED never came on. I hit the power button and nothing happened. Then I unplugged it and then all the backlights on the buttons came on. If I press the power button all the backlights turn off as long as I am pressing. The second I take my finger off all the backlights come back on. The screen and LED haven't even come close to coming on.
Does anyone have any idea what's up?
PS. I just want to clarify, I never bricked it in a conventional sense. The ROM worked fine as long as it was powered up. I could reboot it and everything.
thats happening to my old g1 too...still dont know how to fix it or whats wrong with it =[
Probably a loose or broken cable
My old G1 also got messed up because of a broken screen cable.
This sounds like the cable connecting the smaller board with the buttons and usb to the motherboard
i guess i'll open it up and see if anythings wrong =p
Hey all,
I just installed a new digitzer on my Vivid. Everything went fine, and nothing broke as I was taking apart the phone, or putting it back together.
Now that the phone is back together, however, it is having some problems.
First off, When I try to power the phone on, it vibrates like usual, but then doesn't display anything. The phone then proceeds to enter in to a bootloop and keeps vibrating every couple moments. When plugged in to the computer, the orange light comes on for a few seconds, then turns off. Windows will not recognize the phone. All the while, the screen is completely black, and none of the lights come on for the buttons either.
The phone was working fine before replacing broken digitizer.
The phone is NOT rooted, nor has it ever been. I am running stock ICS.
have tried entering Hboot with no avail.
Any advice?
Thank you!
Can you get into any other modes? Try to get to hboot(hold down power button and volume down) while plugged into computer. Should take it to fastboot.
how long for? I tried holding down for a good 30 seconds...nothing happened other than my orange light turning off
I noticed with mine I had to go with:
Remove battery.
Replace battery
hold vol down + power
few seconds later release power
few seconds later in hboot
YMMV due to repair.
You can also try a knoppix boot disc and some tutorial to see if you can find any sign of life off the phone in dmesg.
hope this helps some.
Sounds like a loose connection. Make sure that you've correctly reconnected all internal connections. Especially the connection under the little door with the void sticker on the screw in the battery compartment. If after verifying all connections are made and proper, the problem persists, I'm sorry to say you may have physically damaged the connectors during disassembly. Please visually inspect all connections for damage. A powerful magnifying glass is recommended.
(I have successfully replaced my digitizer twice, and my LCD panel once on this phone...)
Sent from my HTC Dark Raider using XDA.
I have taken it apart twice, checked all connections, and everything is good. Phone cannot enter any boot mode, and computer still doesn't recognize it. The orange light still only stays on for a few seconds when plugged in, then turns off. The phone then proceeds to keep trying to restart itself, but the screen remains pitch black blank
idk.. get a replacement.?
Left my phone plugged in over night like a I always do. Woke up today and tried to turn the screen on but there was nothing. It wouldn't come on. Pressed the power button over and over but nothing. Tried a three finger reboot. Felt it vibrate signalling it rebooted. Still no screen.
Removed my bumper case to make sure I was pressing the button all the way down. Was able to get the little vibrate signal that the power menu prompt popped up but still no screen. Held the power button for 30 seconds. Still nothing.
Finally held down power button + volume up and the device rebooted and the boot animation came up. Screen works fine again.
So I guess the point of this post is to let people know my sets in case the encounter this problem. Hopefully it works for you as well and you don't have to send your device back.

I had a similar situation where I was toggling my nexus 4s brightness settings and when you have it at the darkest setting it is pitch black. Like there's no light on at all. I just had to hit the spot that I did before and bring the light settings back up. So maybe you can boot it up unlock it on the blank screen and two finger pull down and try pressing the light toggle?

it was at ten percent brightness and the screen was completely unresponsive as far as i could tell. doing the power + volume up press made it reboot and return to normal.

Mine did that once too. Exact same thing happened. I was starting to get the feeling in my stomach where my phone had just died and then I hit a random set of buttons and saw the Google logo appear. Must be a software bug.

exactly the same here. felt like i had dropped a baby on it's head haha. i wish i knew a way to figure out what caused it.
My wife and I have been having the same issue, and I'm surprised that there's not more reports of this behavior The worst part is that I use my phone as an alarm, and the alarm won't go off if this happens in the night.
It has happened to me 3 times now, and 2 times in one day for my wife. Holding down the power button for ~20 seconds will cause the reboot, which is the good news. This morning after holding down the power button I noticed the notification light flashing red.
The phone appears to be still on, because if it happens overnight I will still see the white notification light flashing even though the screen won't turn on.
I had this problem on faux123 kernel on the second day after I got my Nexus 4.
Doesn't encounter it on franco.Kernel...
Sleep of death brozillas! Happens to all android phones. Happened to all my phones listed in my signature. You can reboot the device and you should be good. For the dude that's missing his alarm you should do a factory reset if you are stock or if you have root do not set your min cpu values to less than 3xx MHz.

Same thing happened to me on my N4. Did a hard reboot and it came back on. Has happened at least twice since then, usually after being plugged in.

Change chargers, cables. Make sure the charger is 5v 1.2a. Factory reset to stock.
If all that fails, RMA if you can.

I observed the same issue (going to standby, then cannot switch on within an hour) with my [just bought] Nexus 4 (latest 4.2.2 firmware OTA updated, nothing special in setup, second day of use).
Certainly must be difficult to say if it's hardware of software (that is, JB/drivers, since I cannot see how such issue can be caused by any virtual machine application) and when/if the latter will be fixed. I have another such great device already -- ASUS TF700 transformer, with similar "everything works, just reboots occasionally", which I think is enough for me
As with the ASUS Transformer case, I have trouble understanding: if it's the issue with all devices/firmware, although not too frequent -- then why everybody does not complain/return the units massively: the phone is pretty unusable if it cannot be relied upon. If it's just some isolated cases with particular units -- then what happened to QA/testing at LG...
So I guess I am going to return it while I can.
Too bad, good model otherwise, will have to see other phones or wait/observe.
My point is, I understand: fairly new device, can have quite a few faults to be fixed later -- now everybody seem to work that way, for better or worse.
It can have more or less beautiful (or ugly) designs, more or less features, larger or smaller batteries/working time; it can have problems with data connectivity, it can have better or worse browser (or the lack thereof completely). I'm fine with the lack of text reflow in Chrome although that was surprising.
One thing a phone/communicator/PDA absolutely cannot do, provided its battery is not empty, is going into "sleep of death"-like states -- it just cannot serve its purpose then, I cannot see how people sell it at all...
I have had a similar issue before, but i have experienced it when my phone has been through one of 2 sets of scenarios.
1 - It gets really warm and the screen becomes unresponsive, dead if you will. The hard reboot fixes this.
2 - When the signal to my phone is sporadic. An example of this would be my recent trip to London. I was on the underground quite a lot, and I'd lose signal quite often whilst travelling. On a couple of occasions i had to reboot my phone the hard way to get it going again.
Hope this helps?
In my case the device was lying near me on the sofa, the time between its going to standby and my attempt to switch it on was something within 1 hour. Nothing especially intensive had been done before.
BTW, while the phone was in that state, trying to call it resulted in long tones, i.e., apparently the radio/cell was online.
Hope this will help somebody, I returned mine.
Good evening. First post but long time lurker. My N4 is unrooted and on 4.2.2. I'm troubled with this as well especially so when the alarm doesn't ring in the morning after it's crashed overnight and I'm late for work!
Not sure if this is relevant though. I don't listen to music frequently on my N4 but the 3 times it had crashed overnight I had been listening to music before going to bed. Twice using Google music being streamed via my home wifi and once using poweramp with music on internal memory. I remember on 2 occasions the phone feeling rather hot as I was plugging the charger in as I was about to turn in.
I suspect there's a process that's causing the the phone to overload/ overheat and then switch off as a result. Because it's plugged in, it'll just continue to charge overnight and present you with a 100% battery in the morning once you've got it to reset again.
I have also found that doing a soft reset before going to bed prevents this from happening.
Just my observations.
Hi all, I got my Nexus 4 a week ago to replace a broken HTC One X (The cost of repairs was almost equal to the cost of a new Nexus 4). Since I got it, SoD happened twice, both times when I left it to charge overnight. The weird thing is that I have this LED application that blinks the notification light when charging with screen off. When I unplugged the phone, the LED was still blinking as if charging, so the phone is definitely not dead. I will try to set it to day-dream while charging and see if it helps. If it does, it might be considered a way of Google encouraging developers (like myself) to create more daydream apps .
Good morning from beyond the pond,
had the same thing happening as described in the first post solution (pressing POWER+VOL UP) helped to reboot my device.
Only thing that was showing was the led, flashing a blueish white light.
Now runs again on rasbeanjelly. Thanks to OP.
EDIT: since this happened the first time, I thought about what I had altered in my setup.
Only thing that was new was "Greenify". Maybe it sent the APEX launcher into standby?!
Having same problem on my 1 week older n4, my friend having the same problem . only thing in commune we have is the WHATSAPP app that once the phone restart it give a notification that the phone date is wrong,once I look at the date settings yes it is wrong, it says 1970 ,so I have to reset it. It does it every time the problem happens ,can this be a clue???

I'm having similar problems.
The first time I believe it was just an issue of slight overheating. I turned off the screen but left Google Maps running & put it in my bag. It didn't actually turn off, but the screen didn't want to come on when I took it out later. I did notice it was hot, and after it cooled for a couple mins, it worked fine again. I haven't done this again, and so far, so good.
However, now, on occasion the phone won't respond to the power button. I've never had to actually do a reset - it will eventually decide to work after a couple of presses.. but when it does, it will be slow to come on. The screen will be backlit (but black) for a few seconds, then it will load and respond as normal.
Since the light comes on prior to the screen, it seems like a software rather than hardware issue to me. If the screen was damaged, I don't think it would act that way. I don't know phones, but that's my intuition. I'm going to try and remember to turn it off on occasion and see if that helps. I don't think it's been reset since the last push update.

Hello !
My problem is a bit long to explain, but I'll try to make it short ^^
So, at the beginning, I think the problem is about water resistance, because I put it in water with all the covers closed but when I took it back, the jack's "white thing" turned red and so did the others as well (even if I don't know how it happened).
From that moment, I began to try a lot of things, like charging it, connecting it to the computer, put it in rice during one night, etc... In order to dry it and to see how it's reacting, and here is the differents "states" I noticed:
-when it was charging with the wall charger, the red LED was blinking regularly
-when I connected it to my computer, the red LED turned on, my computer made the connected sound, the LED turned off 2 seconds after, and 10seconds after it went on again with the disconnected sound and the connected sound again and repeating (disconnected - LED on - connected - 2sec - LED off - 10sec)
-it wasn't doing that usually but it did it one time; red LED blinking without any connection to anything ( blinking 2 times every 2 seconds)
-and nothing was happening with the dock
At the moment I'm writing, it's acting a bit different:
-nothing's happening whithout connection
-when charging to the wall charger or the dock, it vibrates 1 time, red LED turning on, waiting 4 seconds, vibrating 3 times pretty fast, then the LED is turning off and it repeats a dozen of seconds right after that. (a bit like that - --- - --- - --- - --- - ---)
-when it's connected to the computer, it's now doing the connected and disconnected sound without stopping just like somebody is playing with the USB
I tried to press any button at any state, but I did'nt noticed anything changing.
I think that's all.
So if you have any idea about what's happening to my phone, please tell me
Thank you !
...
It's water damaged and needs sending for repair. Red LED indicates a hardware error.
There is nothing you can do yourself to repair it.

So, yesterday, I brought it to a repairer but instantly when he saw that the "little squares" were red, he told me that there's nothing to do, end of discussion.
I came back home a bit sad because I knew I had to buy a new phone but then, this morning, I was in a mood like "I don't give a f***" so I put it in charge and I tried hard with the Power Button, and the Vol+/- when suddendly, I saw the screen blinking during one short moment. Then, I tried again and I finally saw the "Charging screen" but the screen was going on and off. I waited a bit and it turned on by itself, and it went until the PIN-code phase but there again, the screen was turning on and off repeatedly, and, trying hard again with the buttons, I managed to go until the homescreen, but seeing the screen turning on and off again with sometimes the menu to power off the phone/restart/etc... I realised that the real problem was about the buttons ! So I turned it off ( trying to press the button rapidly before the screen do it again) and now I finally understood evrything ! When it was doing the strange patterns with the LED and the vibrations, it was because there is some problem in the contact with the buttons (it was turning on and resetting by itself because of this).
Now that we finally know what the problem is, have you got an idea about how to solve it ? Do you think there is still some water around the buttons and that I should try to dry it again (and how in that case ? Rice ? Hair-dryer ?) ? Or will the buttons stay like that even without water remaining ? In that case, do you have any solution ?
Thanks again !
You can buy all the replacement buttons on ebay if you are confident enough, it seems that you're warranty has been voided by the water so that's out of the question. I would suggest buying a new battery at the same time.
replace the battery ..
