Phone will not power on. - HTC Sensation XL

I was scanning to see if it had recovery for my phone.As I was scrolling down their list, my finder sliped and selected recovery of different phone and installed it., my phone bleeped a few times with black screen.
I tried to switch on using power key, but it will not power.
I then took the battery out and used Vol down key + power to reboot into bootloader. Nothing happed, phone just bleeps few times. Still black screen.
Need urgen help please.

Pull battery for 15min and try again. If nothing happened go to service. Or try install the ruu for your country.

Thanks for your reply. I have tried hard reset after taking out the battery without any luck. I can not install the RUU as the phone is dead, black screen. Battery was fully charged. I did a bad flash by accident via rom manager.
Anyone out there with similar problem and found the solution, I do not need another expensive door stopper.

If you can go to bootloader or make factory reset (vol down + vol up + power) and something showing on the screen you can install ruu.
If you can charge the battery (led is shining) its mean you need only j-tag :d
If nothing with this. Its mean your memory is dead.
I had this issues on my friend phone. But there was no led and no vibration. Realy dead

The screen is black. So hard reset does not work. Total dead, the screen does not light. When you do factory reset, the phone make 5 or 7 beeps like when phone is vibrating, then it is dead, no response. I think I need to have J-Tag.

Bricked phone, can I get it replaced?

I was reflashing my phone, while in download mode, the power went off, and now my phone won't turn on or anything. I think my phone is bricked.
I bought the phone a week and a half ago. Will AT&T accept my phone for a replacement if I say it just stopped working? I have the $4.99/month Wireless Insurance, but won't they deny it when they find out I've been messing with it? What should I do?
Thanks!
Before you take it back, make sure it isn't bricked. Remove the battery, replace it, hold both the volume buttons, plug in the usb and see if it takes you to download mode

It's bricked. Replaced battery, won't turn on no matter what I do to it.
There's a small scratch on the screen, and the micro USB charging port cover is messed up a bit from something sticky getting in there.
What should I tell AT&T? What's the likeliness of them declining my claim? Can they tell that it's been tampered with even though it's bricked?
Wrong forum. But I would use my insurance instead and tell them it just quit on me...
Try plugging into the computer, remove the battery reinsert the battery. Then hold volume up and power till red text comes on the screen from there switch to holding both volume buttons down and power then when the red text flashes to black release power and continue to hold both volume buttons. That should get you back to the downloading digger bot.

They won't give you a hard time on the software side - to them off is off - they can't tell if you bricked it - they will send it somewhere and have it flashed.
BUT - if there is something sticky in the USB port then they do have grounds to deny your claim - for all they know you poured juice in there.
Good luck.
Get it into download mode and flash it again with odin. Likely not bricked.

I tried everything suggested, nothing happens. The power went out, while flashing new firmware, now the phone won't turn on no matter what I do. I already tried peoples suggestions.

The AT&T screen doesn't come up?
Guys we have been told a gazillion times about this...what does this have to do with Development?! Jesus....
Which firmware were you using at the time and which one were you flashing?
also make sure the battery is charged

Nothing does, I tried every combo, SIM card in and out, replacing battery, USB plugged in and out, download mode, regular power button, recovery mode, what the guy suggested above; everything.
Not a single thing shows up on the screen.
You glanced over my question.
The version of firmware you were using before the flash and during the failed flash can be very pertinent to the key combination you need to get into download mode =P

I had the stock firmware, installed the JM5 firmware, reinstalled the JM5 firmware, while doing so, they power went off.
Just pressing Volume Down + Power got me into Download Mode everytime.
Edit: And yes, the battery was charged, it was at about 67% when I was flashing the firmware. How can I charge the battery for the heck of it when the phone is dead? Normally when you plug in the USB cable there's a charging animation on the screen. Nothing comes up at all, can a dead phone charge a battery, or does the software need to send the power to the battery?
Honestly I've had flashes fail at varying points during the flash and I've gotten the black screen before, ALWAYS I've been able to get it to work by following these steps:
Pull out everything, SIM, SD, Battery, USB, EVERYTHING
Close Odin (If it's open)
Reopen Odin
Insert battery, hold vol down (If this doesn't work hold both volume buttons NO POWER)
While holding the button(s) plug in USB
Don't touch the power at any point, if this fails and you want to try the other key combo, start the process over completely.

This man speaks the truth, listen to him.
If your insurance covers damage then destroy the phone and call att and tell them its been destroyed.
if not then it is possible that the power outage could have caused your phone to zap.
Flashing or not if you spilled stuff into the usb port your screwed. Week and a half and you scratched the screen and did that? I have tried to scratch mine with no succes. I say ditch that phone and get a GO phone. And have a mod delete this pointless thread already!!!!

HELP, My phone refuses to boot up.

It started as soon as I received a phone call from my brother and we were in the middle of a conversation when the phone suddenly goes off. I tried to restart it, I even removed the battery and replaced it but when I press the power button I get the initial boot sequence showing the htc logo and then the phone would just go of. I thought that maybe the battery is low but when I plug it to a power outlet it keeps trying to boot but keeps switching off and it just does this over and over.
Please I don't know if anyone has encountered this problem before, I really don't know what to do.

Try a Hard Reset using the device buttons:
1. With the phone off. If it’s frozen or unresponsive, pull then replace the battery.
2. Press and hold the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons and power the phone back on.
3. Continue to hold Volume Up and Volume Down until a factory reset screen appears.
Hope this helps!

Well I just did that but the problem persist. I should note that occasionally it does complete its boot up and I can use the phone but it can go off at any time and once it does this, i cannot get it to completely boot up. Once it attempts a boot up and goes off I cannot even restart it by pressing the power button until I replace the battery or plug it into a power socket or the computer at which point it will just keep booting up and shutting down.
Something far wrong there. Get a replacement device.

Hi, I have got the same problem on my HD7 and I am completely noob to many new words Goldcard, jailbroken, etc. Would you please advise me exactly what you did (i mean flahing procedure) and really appriciate any help.
Well if you have got an O2 HD7, then I would advise you to get one of the O2 ROMS from ansar, download it then press and hold the volume down button when booting up your device, connect the phone to your pc and start the app. More instructions in the HD7 development thread.
There's nothing wrong the phone. Don't hard reset or flash it. It happens from time to time, just give it some time and eventually you will see a battery icon appear. Then after awhile it will boot up.
Again, do not flash or hard reset just be patient. I believe it just needs to drain all the way down as it doesn't have enough power to fully boot.
Not booting up
Hi,
My T Mobile hd7 is been restarting after it shows the htc logo..It was all of a sudden after i connected to my pc this happened ...Tried to flash it with ansar tmobile update..problem persists...Dont knw how to use goldcard..please help me out..

How are you sure that the battery is good and charged. Normally after one year if the usage is heavy, the chances of battery down happens. So make sure battery is good. Secondly you mentioned volume down button, how about vol up button ie recovery mode?

This happened to me as well last week. Tried everything but failed.
I did below steps and my phone is up & working
1) Remove the battery and keep it in a dry place for 4-6 hours (Very important step to make this work)
2) Place the battery back into computer and do not turn ON the phone
3) Plug the phone to wall charger and charge the phone for at least an Hour (I kept for 2 Hrs)
4) Remove the charger and gently press the power button for 15 secs
5) This should turn the phone back ON
Above steps helped for me. Let me know if this worked for you also :angel:

Ankush,
In your case I can think of only 2 things
1) If you have CWM installed then
press and hold "Volume UP Key + Power Key + Home Key" all together for 30 secs (may be a min) and see if you get recovery screen
If yes then all is ok & you just need to flash a new ROM
2) If you do not have CWM then
press and hold "Volume Down Key + Power Key + Home Key" all together for 30 secs (may be a min) and see if you get a custom screen
If yes then you can install custom ROM (or original ROM) using ODIN.
Let me know if anything helps you here

Same kind of error
Over the night my phone closed. When I try to open it, on the screen apeared "Insert PIN to decrypt your ~something~ ". I never encrypted my phone so I tried to restart. I got stuck on the samsung logo. Then I removed the battery and put it back in and my device never started again. I have 2 batteries and none of them worked. I can charge the batteries independently and this is not the issue.

Have the same problem right now.. did you find a solution eventually?
Same happened to my device today. Had trouble with some apps before. Wanted to play back a two days old backup. But my phone never woke up again. Shut down forever. Never got to recovery. Had the latest cm11 nightly. Now its dead! RIP. My dear friend. We've gone a long way together. Never intended to replace you anytime soon. But I can't be without a Phone. Moving on to Galaxy S5 now. Hope it can fill the gapp.
Same here, completely dead after a reboot. I took it apart but I see no damage or signs of burn damage anywhere on the motherboard or other components. Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot and find out specifically what happened?
i am not sure, mayb the phone is design to last for only certain years, new apps launch make the phone in applicable for be running with latest apps and everything. Or mayb the phone is design with a timer to self destroy its chip or component after specific numbers of days being used??

Completely bricked Xperia Z

I was just playing around trying to move apps onto my new micro sd card. I rebooted several times. But suddenly when I rebooted one more time, the screen turned black. It was supposed to reboot into recovery (CWM). So I tried to turn it on again. Nothing happened. I also tried to press power button + vol up. Nothing happened. No light when charging either. I really really really need some help

Does your phone vibrate when you press power + vol up? Can you get it into flashmode?
If your pc recognizes the phone as qhsusb_dload or something like qloader it's hard bricked and there's nothing left you can do..

No flashing LED, no vibrating, nothing.
I'm afraid to say this but it seems your phone is hard bricked... Try to do a rubber band across it so that the power button and vol up buttons get pressed all the time and plug it into your wallcharger. If that doesn't help bring it to your local sony service centre and let them repair it although they will very likely charge of a service fee.
Good luck mate!

Thank you, I will try that. It is really weird, the last thing I did was pressing the restart in recovery button.
I bricked my phone while trying to unlock bootloader (didnt wait for the command prompt to complete the process) and later my pc was recognizing it as qhsusb_dload. But my volume buttons were working and I used the Sony update service to restore it.

It is very possible, frequent restarts eat away alot of battery, and you never know maybe it was on while you saw a black screen thinking it was off.

If you see a flashing blue light, when it is not plugged in, it's because the bootload was entered improperly and is in safe mode. The only way you can fix it, is to do a system wipe via Sony Companion and reinstall stock ROM. It's an Xperias way of bootlooping into a safe mode when it's locked.

Too bad Sony doesn't implement an ADB OTI. Otherwise you could flash ROMs even with factory lock and never brick it.
i am experiencing the same problem right now. hadn't touched the tablet in a couple weeks, i seem to remember turning it off because it was really low on battery and the charger wasn't near. now it is just a black rectangle.. LED never responds, charging doesn't do anything, doesn't show up on ADB or flashtool.
seems like it is some problem with the firmware or hardware since all the android devices i've owned have always charged (with the LED on) regardless of the condition of the software (hell my one x that busted open and the screen doesn't work still charges and hooks up to the computer)
i would love to get this fixed because sony tech support pretty much bent me over today.

seems like it is some problem with the firmware or hardware since all the android devices i've owned have always charged (with the LED on) regardless of the condition of the software (hell my one x that busted open and the screen doesn't work still charges and hooks up to the computer)
i would love to get this fixed because sony tech support pretty much bent me over today.

HTC One (M7) Stuck @ boot

Hey my ~2years old HTC one m7 stopped working today.
I was using the Phone for navigation (GPS) today until the battery was @ 0% (Even showed -2% later).
Now when I start (by holding the POWER button for 5-10sec) it will show me this white screen + htc logo.
And it freezes right there, I tried POWER + VOL- and tried everything from recover/reboot to factory reset. Nothing seems to work.
Info:
Newest Update from HTC
Not rooted
TMoblie
If you need more ask.
I hope somoene can help me!
Thanks in advice

Have you put the phone on a charger and let it charge itself fully before you start or try to turn it on? There is a build-in safeguard to protect the battery from getting too low.

I am charging it right now, but could this still be it even if it does turn on but wont boot correctly? ( like described)

If it charged up with a green LED and you still can not get it to boot properly you can try to run the RUU 6.10.531.9 this is the latest one from T-Mobile. The instructions are on the page. If it doesn't work, then you may have to take it back to T-Mobile for repairs.
NOTE: If you are S-ON, your bootloader needs to be "Locked" or "Relocked" to execute the RUU.
