Hi, last week I was in a foam party... with my nexus one in the back pocket..
It was almost completely wet, I wait different hours and then I try to start it but it stuck at the boot ("X" symbol). Yesterday I came back at home, I change the battery, clean the phone with alcohol and put it in the rice for almost a day. I can enter into the bootloader (blackrose), I can use fastboot but the recovery (amonRa) and my rom do no boot. I flashed the radio and the recovery several times. It always bootloop when I start the recovery. With blackrose I check the internal memory, there are 2 bad blocks... not too much. The screen, all the buttons and the battery seems to work correctly but the led does not light up when I charge the N1 (but it charge the battery and without the battery but plugged in, if I try to power on the smartphone, the led blinks).
Do you have some suggestions?

I mean, i guess this might not work since your N1 is now Liquid Damaged but try this:
Fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
Note: you will need a recovery image and a rom zip so that you can test out if your N1 boots into recovery or not, if it does proceed to flashing the rom then reboot, and still Your phone has acquired Liquid Damage, nothing i have told you might work, it might not even get recognised by the Computer that is being used for the current operation, your phone might even end up in smoke...ok maybe not but you have been warned.
Hi, thank you for you reply. I tried what you said but without success, the recovery continues to bootloop (of course I re-flashed it).
Maybe I have to say goodbye to my N1 :crying:

Not really, you can send your phone into a dealer to get a part changed well mainly the motherboard because that is dramatically cheaper than purchasing a new phone

So i bought a few of these batteries off of ebay and they are OEM HTC 1500maH batteries that come with the EVO. However when i put it in i cant press the letter T. i knwo this is happeneing due to pressure on the screen (its a little bigger than the 1300) but its weird cuz when i put the batteries in my moms incredible the problem doesnt happen. can someone please help me find a fix for this issue. its realllly annoying. and also i know it has nothing to do with the software cuz ive tried flashing multiple roms.
not sure if it has anything to do with it, but do you and your mom both have the same types of screens, or maybe one of you has SLCD, etc.?
I have an HTC Evo 1500 in my inc and T works for me. I'm AMOLED. Let us know what you've got.
I have an 1800 battery off of ebay and its a good bit bigger then the stock battery and everything still works
We all have AMOLED so i cant figure out why there should be a problem with just "my" phone
that's no fun man :/ just curious, what happens if you hold the phone horizontal?
Works perfectly fine. But I don't use landscape very much...

No problems with the Seidio 1750mah battery.
ok ive been using the stock battery due to the whole T not registering and i just got a siedio innocase 2 and popped it on my DI and the problem started happening with the 1300+ innocase! but now its even worse, the T, G and V wont register with the case on.. So im thinking about taking my phone into verizon and getting a replacement, but im not sure if they would give me a new phone because they might give me some its a 3rd party product bs and their not responsible for it... anyone have any suggestions on how i could get a replacement? lol
Well you said you noticed it when using an OEM battery... So obviously it's a problem with the phone.
Make sure you show them what happens when you try it on both you and your mom's Incredibles.
yeah im going to take them both in and show them. i should probably restore my stock backup and turn security back on before i take it in yeah?

It's not rooted and doesn't have anything on it. Pretty much stock. Sent a text msg this morning and checked my email from it. Came back to it abt 20 minutes later and it won't even turn on. Tried charging it. Won't turn on. Tried swapping with my regular battery (which was fully charged when I put it away. It could be dead by now.). Nothing. Tried removing the battery, waiting, replacing the battery. Nothing. I did briefly get the M Dual Core icon and then all went blank.
Suggestions?

I second this.
Without going through the pain of returning it, would you be able to connect it to your computer, and reflash the (is it TRZ?) file through the new RSD Lite through the stock bootloader? Definitely worth a try.

Thanks, all.. Hauled my cookies 30 minutes over to Verizon. The sales rep assumed I hadn't bothered to charge my phone. When he realized it wasn't the battery, he was extremely helpful and replaced the phone on the spot. He said he'd never seen that before and with a phone less than 1 month old, I shouldn't have those kinds of issues. Kudos to Verizon for a pleasant experience. I've had some bad experiences in the past, but this gentleman was helpful and didn't try to sell me any accessories! ;p (They always try to sell me something when I'm there.)

This is referencing what one would do if the software had an issue, if it does this will fix it but kinda sounds like hardware. I have returned my Bionic to stock twice its fairly easy, computer does almost everything. Here is this to get you going if you wanna do it.

Just remember, phone has to be in fastboot mode to be detected by RSD Lite and once its detected and the file starts flashing, if it seems like its not making progress while saying otherwise, dont unplug it just wait

One would need the ability to turn the phone on in the first place for this to be attempted. That's why no one was mentioning the FXZ.
The phone booted to the dual core M logo, which with myself that happens to be as far as mine would go when i successfully flashed my FXZ. The phone needs to boot to the fastboot screen which can be done on many occasions that the phone can get to the first logo, as long as there is battery left.

But congrats on the new replacement i just saw that after i posted

It hasn't happened to me but I have to pull the battery on my wifes Bionic at least once a week and twice in one day. It would just go away suddenly and act like it was dead. I may return it for a replacement.
if anyone has exchanged their Bionic for a replacement because of the BSOD defect, will you please provide feedback in this thread? thanks
hi all:
just bought a bionic off ebay for cheap ($20 + free ship) but it has problems
it was being sold as "battery with water damage but phone is not but wont power on"
he said one night he left it in his drawer and when he woke up it didn't work anymore he tried removing battery and all that.
to my understanding the battery was previously water damaged and he could still use it and then got the wont power on later on.
anyhow to my question
the phone comes today with just the phone, water damaged battery and wall charger.
should I cut the end off the charger and do the wires to the battery and insert battery into phone and plug usb cord from laptop to the phone?
isn't this the correct way for bsod and a non water damaged battery?
is there anyway to test the waterdamaged battery to see if it could still be good?
I have a multimeter
I flashed Paranoid Android after wiping ARHD 10.2, everything installed perfectly, phone was working great until I was listening to Pandora and checking Facebook..then my SIM card became unreadable and I had to take it out and put it back in, when I turned my phone back on it had gone from 42 percent battery to 4 percent, then 2, then dead. I charged it for a little while before going out for dinner, I came home and it wouldn't turn on, and it won't charge now whatsoever.
What the ****?
Alright, this will sound silly but place the phone in front of a light so that the sensor picks it up then try to turn it on. Will have to hold the power button for a while but it should turn back on. Or, if it won't, also try booting into your hboot. Reason for this is so you can't accidently turn on your phone in your pocket or something like that. It's been a while since I read this, I could be wrong but this won't hurt your phone so just give it a try

Yes, tried two chargers in two outlets along with USB only charging, none work. Both chargers worked this morning.
That happened to me today. Literally the exact same thing.
My solution:
Step 1. PANIC LIKE A MOTHA F******
Step 2. Contemplate spiking unibody sexiness into pavement because unibody is functionally retarded.
Step 3. Take a deep breath and remember why you love her...
Step 4. Hold down power button for 10 seconds or longer.
Step 5. Plug usb cable that came in your box into your device.
Step 6. Quit whimpering, people can hear you.
Step 7. Plug into PC. Watch for tiny red light at top of phone.
Step 8. Wait about 30 min.
Step 9. ??????
Step 10. PROFIT! !

Sent HTC an e-mail, my phone shouldn't over-heat and brick while using Facebook and pandora and that's it. I'm about to swap this **** for a S4 and stop being a HTC fanboy. I'm upset.
Not every unit provided by manufacturer can be perfect. By the end of the day its electronics and something can go bad. If you feel s4 is better than get a s4. HTC One will be happy to leave you. I'm sorry for being rude and sarcastic but it is what it is.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
You shouldn't quickly jump to conclusions in my opinion. Just get a replacement set and see how it goes. If it still has problems then you can go for S4 or whatever device is out there. Of course in the end it's your decision but I'm just saying that you shouldn't cloud your decision just because of one defective set.

Did you charge it overnight using the stock HTC charger and cable? That is about all I can thing of. Something in the ROM appears to have drained the battery flat, which is not normally possible.

Makes me wonder if they didn't do something to the safe charging capabilities, although I would think that stuff is in the hardware, not the ROM.
It seems if it was the base that's being used we would have a LOT of devices going down so can't really speculate the cause. I shouldn't have posted above in such a suggestive manner.
I don't imagine the rom would be stopping the phone from charging as the kernel etc is not loaded until after hboot, charging is dealt with well before this sequence in the boot process.
To be fair it sounds like a hardware failure, maybe an overheating issue, possible caused by the rom and many other factors but that's the risk you take flashing experimental 3rd party software to your device. I don't thing you will ever know, your not even getting a uart mode which to me says fried PCB..
Send it in for repair and play dumb

I hope I am not duplicating a thread, the XDA search function appears to be down at the moment. Last night I put my phone on the charger (OEM HTC charger); the battery was low, but the phone was still on, and it appeared to be charging. When I woke up this morning (late, since my phone acts as my alarm), my phone was turned off. Now I am unable to turn on the phone at all, and there is no orange charging LED. Unfortunately I don't have the money for a warranty exchange/replacement/repair (and probably won't for a while), so I will be without a mobile until this gets resolved. Please help, you guys are my only hope.
Steps I have tried:
Leaving the phone plugged in for a long while.
Holding vol up and power for several minutes.
Holding vol down and power for several minutes.
Holding vol up and down and power for several minutes.
Plugging it into a computer.
Using several different chargers.
Removing my SIM card, and trying all of the above again.

Unfortunately that doesn't appear to work for me. When you had to do this, was your device completely dead like mine, or were you able to see the orange charging light?
Just 2 days ago mine did nearly the same thing. It just seemed to run out of battery REALLY fast and wouldn't charge again until it completely ran out of battery. And then it wouldn't charge properly with any chargers, the led was flickering , cutting out then staying on for a few seconds etc. I left it overnight plugged in and it charged it finally me, but now my phone is going crazy.(270 rotation even when it's rotation locked, not recognising headphones or USB connection and more.) Maybe we both have faulty motherboards? I'm pretty sure mine isn't a software problem after numerous factory resets. I know this isn't really helpful but we're having a similar problem so if someone can help, this info could be useful? I just emailed HTC but I'm bootloader unlocked and running ARHD som I'm not that optimistic. They might try to blame that, even though I know it's not the problem.
Disappointing after 3 months of love and tender care that something like this goes wrong.
Um there might be 2 possibilityes:
1. Your phone is hard bricked (google it if you don't understand), witch may be caused by bootloader malfuncion while your phone was shutting diwn, in case that something might got corrupted
2. Hardware faliure. You might have something burned on your pcb, or you might have a dead battery

When I plug the phone into my PC, it now installs drivers for "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008"; does this indicate a hard-brick? If so, I read somewhere else that if I used JTAG, I could potentially fix the phone. Is this a program that can be downloaded? If it helps, I do have one of SkOrPn's cables that I used a while ago to fix my Kindle Fire. T-Mobile is saying they won't do anything because the camera lens on the back has a small crack in it, even though they admit that it is unrelated to the issue at hand.

Thanks for the reply. I see that the tool they posted is for the AT&T Galaxy Note. Will this tool still work for the HTC One? I've got Linux machines available to use the tool if it will.
I had the phone for one month and it stopped charging. TMobile gave me a second charger at the store two weeks in since that's when it started. One month and a day after getting the phone it completely stopped charging. You had to rotate the cables in weird positions to get a charge. I think it's the USB connector on the phone or the battery. The store is mailing me a replacement for $20. IM using my backup S2 till then. I was rooted on Revolution the entire time. Suffice to say I think it's important to delicately remove the cable after charging. IM angry about this since I've had zero issues with my Samsung devices and thought I'd try the One.

I see, thanks for the help. Yeah I'm not very happy with T-Mobile right now. Basically, they won't even handle the repair/replacement because there is a small crack on the camera lens; I've spoken with two different representatives at T-Mobile who gave the same response. What's worse is that they admitted that it is obvious the cracked lens is completely unrelated to the fact that the phone won't boot. My next path is to interface directly with HTC to get it fixed, which is of course going to cost more money. If I at least had better coverage where I live and work, it might be a different story, but so far I've had nothing but bad luck with them. Once I can get out of this mess, I'll probably switch back to Verizon, and maybe give their Edge program a try. Sorry about the rant, but this is just getting silly.

The phone is my mums, never rooted never unlocked just 100% stock. She was playing candy crush or something when it crashed. It never came back on no matter how much it was charged. Not detected by pc either, sent to a repair shop and they couldn't get anything to work. Can't send to Sony because the backs been opened now so I really don't know what to do
This happened before once too and that time a long charge (about 10 hours perhaps) fixed it
This time, when connected to charger the red LED appears for almost exactly half a minute then dies out and doesn't come back

trying to fix it will cost more than buying a new one because you will have to buy every hardware piece and try one at a time or as a last resort you could try flashtool (but it will need debugging activated)
