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.

You will have to send it for repairs unfortunately

The problem is that I have installed a custom rom...and no way of reverting to original...does this void my guarantee?
Came back ...for now

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.

Hi again,
I am also trying to use the same soft, but no luck... could you please, eventually by PM, tell me the steps that worked for you?
And it can be in Portuguese... ; )
Thanks,

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.

P.

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 Msa!
Going back to your question...have you already tried a soft reset? Have you maybe installed any apps recently? you might want to uninstall those apps which could cause the fault....maybe you upgraded your ROM/Radio recently?? Try a fresh install if your problem persists..
Please tell us a little bit more....be more specific.....
Good luck mate
Kind regards
Jeroen
If none of that works (soft reset etc) you might have to do a hard reset and lose everything.
What have you done on it recently?
At what point does the black screen come on? Do you get rom info etc at the beginning?
I had the same problem
I had the same problem, I sent my phone to htc they replaced my mother board and sub board.
I think It's a well known problem and htc knows but will not recall.
Tal
if ur gonna send it back, make sure u have restored the original ROM and SPL.
Thanks Guyzs,,
All I have done is, I downloaded the latest ROm from the HTC website and the phone worked good, suddenly the screen turned black
I have tried everything to do rest (soft n hard) but the problem it when I turn on the device I cant see anything ALL BLACK, not even the first screen and when i tried to connected to the PC I couldnt run the hard reset as well cuz it says he HTC is not connected
???
Best Regrds
black screen no response
I had same problem a few times,what you have to do is take the battery out of the phone for a few seconds,and then replace it.You should be able to switch it on and it should reboot up,at least mine does.Im thinking about having it replaced,because it has goes dead with a black screen a few times and nothing works till i do the above action
ok
Thanks,
I have done that as well,, nothing works :S
thats is so baad
Is your battery fully charged..?
I encountered this once and after leaving the phone on charge for say 30 minutes, everything was back to normal. Sice you say you have upgraded ROM and all, maybe your battery is completely drained.
Hope it helps.
hey,
yea it could be from the battery
Important !!!

Yesterday when i take my milestone out of my pocket I noticed that the Settings touch button(second from left) wasn't working, every other "bar" button was working fine, except that one. Then I noticed there's a vertical line, that goes from the Setting button to the top of the phone that doesn't work. It simply stopped working... Some1 Help me pliz. It' s a Software or Hardware problem, and if it's a Software problem this thing will solve my problem??

Are u using a custom Rom or the Original ? My touchscreen had a similar issue, and reflashing the ROM solved it. It took 2 flashes, but the issue is gone.
Dont know if yours is the same, but if the issue still remains, atleast it can confirmed that its a hardware issue and not a software one.

I have used CM6 on my phone, but when i got this issue, i made my phone back to 2.1. The problem is still standing.
uh oh. Looks like a Hardware issue then. U still might wanna take to the store and get it verified. Is it still under warranty ? Any possibility of an exchange ?

Havent seen any such issues.. Thanks god..
it's similar to my problem, I had the back button through the top of the screen not working..
I have tried flashing, factory resets, and whatever I can do, but still no changed,, so I tried to ask the closest customer service and they said that it's the touchscreen panel must be thrown away to get the new one..
is it really true ?
please share this problem,,

Hi all!
I was having the same problem with the column of numbers 3, 6, 9 of dialpad. Looking for the solution in google, I have read that this problem is probably caused due to the moisture... so yesterday I turned of my milestone, removed the battery, SIM and SD cards and left it inside an enviromental chamber @ +70 celsius degress for 1 hour and guess what? Problem solved!
I hope that it works for anyone that are having the same problem!
Regards
Lucas

I have had good success with a combo of rice (inside a ziplock bag) to absorb humidity and/or a toaster over at the lowest bake setting.
Worked on MANY electronic devices over the years.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
Same problem here. I've solved it by changing the digitizer (ebay 25 euros). Works fine now but in the mean time I change for a Desire HD... good by Milestone !
If you decide to change the digitizer, be patient, fixing th Milestone is not an user friendly task But if you take your time it's ok !
ive the same problem, and i believe that's because of moisture. because every time when its raining except the problem with right side of screen im not even able to use the phone touch screen doesn't work at all and the phone just does something by itself! this issue started with small vertical bar from right side of screen and it growing everyday now im not able to use right side of screen till home button.
i want to know do i have to replace touchscreen or i can fix it with something to absorb humidity?
thanks in advance

When i put the phone to charge on the screen dosen`t show anyhing. All i know is that my battery was on 15% before i installed the rom, but it was successfully installed. Wat`s happening? Nothing is working. Can anybody help me? Sorry for my bad english.

try to charge ur baterry evn if nothing appears then plugin ur device to computer with volume up pressed then just checkout whetr ur computer detects the device ..
for which just go to device manager by right clicking 'my computer' icon >properties>hardware>device manager.
check out for any exclamatory yellow marks.
if exist install suitable driver
then flash ua device , falsh rom
Try entering the emergency mode (pressing vol+ , then plug usb) but just the phone alone, without, battery, sim or microSD on it.
Its a strange behaviour anyway...good luck man!

ya thts ri8 battery must be removed
---------- Post added at 06:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 PM ----------
phone can be back to operating once ur system detects it ..
no matter whether system can install drivers or not..
imprtnt is it must detect
It happened to me before, so lesson learned charge your phone atleast 50% before flashing rom. What i did is i charge the phone even though it dosen't look like charging (screen dosen't show anyhing) but after a few minutes you will noticed that the battery gets hot, it means it's charging. So let the phone charge a little bit then turn on your phone again.

i think you meant that its a pity that the guy being on xda couldn't find a solution and has to give his cell back to lg for reparation and that lg doesn't has xda?
well my friend, if it's his board or something, better do it for free on warranty, right?
we here have most of the solutions but of course not all
and what makes you say lg doesn't connects to xda and monitor our activities/advancements?

I wish to be free but is not , the phone is out of warranty, but not these is the problem i just want to know which is the problem it is the software or the phone it is just weird that the phone refuse to start. Tomorrow i will find if the "doctor" could give me a diagnostic and make my lg "to breathe" again.
So i will come back....I will have just a bit of help, if the service can`t fix my lg and they will give me a diagnostic (that will sound strange to me), could you just explain me more detailed or if that diagnostic really exist?

Thx , i have one more question...i`ve notice that my battery have a small hole, can you please tell me if is present to the battery of your OB? The phone is out of service but is still dead, the boy from the service told me that i have killed my phone with the Rom i head installed and if i want to repair it it will cost me 100$, the only problem is that he don`t have the machinery (and the skills i think) to repair it and i have to sent it in the capital.
Please don`t forget about that hole from the battery...be good and "take an eye" :cyclops: to your battery.
It also happens when I'm not in a range of 3G connection. I though that there is a mistake in rom but it does in every single rom i tried. Should I try it in the Stock rom or what ?
Symptoms are...my phone decide to click on whatever in middle row of a screen or it holds a specific place of a screen and sometimes it becomes uncontrollable (I have a fight of clicking f. eg. The phone taps on Calc when I'm trying to open Settings and it opens calc.)

Well, where did he bought the phone ? From second-hand (I mean from another user) or brand-new from a shop ? He could try fix it on his own but I don't recommend it with non-popular brands they are difficult to repair (I know I had some chinese phones) or try his luck at service center or if he still has a warranty he could reclaim it.

Phone was brand new & this issue happens rarely, not always...so he's ok with it.
