Yesterday while I was surfing the web, didnt do anything abnormal, my HTC Vivid shut down. after trying to turn it on I was only able to get the screen on with nothing on it, after severel times i tried to pull the battery out I didn't achieve anything.
I tried to get into hboot without any success, I also tried doing it "blind" and tried to restore to defult setting.
After some reading I tought it might be a soft brick, I wasn't able to do anything thorugh adb, becuase it doesn't recognize my phone.
Any help please?
Is your battery not charging or not holding a charge?
sent from my HTC Vivid
Yeah, make sure the battery is actually still working first. Plug it in with a wall charger, pull the battery, put it back in, and if you don't get the Orange light, you might have bigger problems (perm-brick, busted USB port, etc).
Battery works fine
Hi guys thank you for the responses.
The battery works great, as usual.
BTW, I forgot to mention that the device was unrooted and with stock tomorrow.
Nothing I think could cause a perm -brick.
Any suggestions?

When did you un root it?
Root
I meant that it was never rooted.
Sorry, my mistake..
What happens when you take the battery out, then put it back in and press the volume down button and power button at the same time?

Well - here is what I would do -
1. remove the battery and put it back in.
2. make sure that you have it plugged in - with it plugged in do you have any lights flashing?
3. My understanding from your post is that you have NO EVIDENCE of power on your phone whatsoever - meaning no lights - if so and what i have suggested to you does not work - then you will have to take it back to whom ever you purchased it from and hope the warranty works.
You did not indicate:
1. where you are located
2. who your carrier is
3. what you had on the phone before you flashed
4. what you tried to flash to
You also did not indicate if the phone was SPL'd before you flashed?
(Not that ANY of those things matter if you have no power on the phone as no recovery can occur if you really need a "resurrection"

No lights what so ever. It had SPL'd on it I flash a new rom and when it finish that was it. The carrier is Cingular in New Jersey. Also I bought it from a person, not from a store. I took the battery out over night and nothing, still no lights. I guess is dead. Thanks

That sound you hear is the fat lady singing I am afraid my friend.
I DOUBT it - but you COULD try a new battery or play around with touching the battery several times to the circuitry (I have seen this in some of the other threads that talk about battery issues and charging issues - hey what have you got to lose?)
Bill
Maybe use it to keep a door open or build a fancy mailbox that kids won't kit with a baseball bat.
Yeah the no lights is bad.
Be honest here. What did you try to flash? What ROM?

If my phones battery runs out while i'm in a call, when i charge it again the phone seems to think its in a call and doesn't boot into the today screen.
It just sits on this screen,

(not my phone but the right screen), with the volume drop down saying In call.
the only way i can seem to get it to boot is a hard reset, and then I lose everything in my phone.
Any suggestions as to how I can get it to boot properly without a hards reset would be appreciated.

That sucks, a Battery Pull or Soft Reset doesn't work?
Nope, just tried both.
It's an XDA Stellar. I just hope it's fixed in 6.1 when the release it (hopefully) next month.

So, you are using the default ROM? After a hard-reset, use your phone with no 3rd party software and see if your phone does the same thing.
Yep Default ROM. I'll try it and see if it happens again, with no software installed

You might want to check in the Hermes thread because the phone in the picture is a Hermes not a Kaiser.

He mentioned in his original post that it is not his phone but that's the screen his phone gets stuck on.
My D4 bit the dust tonight after having it for a year and a half. I think moisture from leaving it in the bathroom during my showers killed it. The phone gets power, but when I turn it on I get white/black static. It won't even show the Motorola boot animation. I am wondering if there is a way to get my pictures off the internal memory card? When I plug my phone up to the computer I get the little sound that my phone is connected, but it doesn't show up. I have tried a reset and booting into safe mode, but the screen just shows black/white static.

Hi, it sounds like you got the same problem as described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552978
I wonder if more people will pop up having this problem suddenly. Can you check if you can connect to your Phone through adb when on the static screen? That still seems to work here.
It might make sense to move this discussion to that other thread to have one location for the people having the same problem.

Hi guys,
my loved Note, yesterday died suddenly.
Last month's I had some problems, sometimes freezed and to use it again I had to go in cwm, do a backup, restore it and then restart. In this way the phone was ok for some says, but always delicate. I mean I couldn't do much things together for don't block it. As when Windows have problems [emoji41].
I had I'm plan to change the original rom, but my low skill made me to wait and wait.
Yesterday when I arrived work I found it switched off, as happen often. I boot in cwm and I got the error in photo.
I tried a swipe cache format, but it block. Normally it needs few seconds. Remain block for 1-2 min so I push power for 10sec.
It switch off, and never awake again.
I changed battery, nothing.
But when I put battery, back in camera area become warm.
Is it death? [emoji33] [emoji41][emoji30] [emoji30] [emoji30]
I have some chances to get it alive again? [emoji30]
Sorry for my bad English
Thanks to all
Ale

Doesn't switch on?!, you mean it can't even boot into recovery or download mode?
If that so, then I'm afraid it's a hardware issue bro, if you can boot into download mode, then you will be able to flash TWRP with Odin..
Hi! My Galaxy Note 9 has recently started having a really strange issue.
When I press the power button and unlock it using my fingerprint, I can clearly hear the phone unlocking, but my screen stays perfectly black. When I press the power button again, it makes the stock "locking" noise that it makes. The little click.
If I don't relock the phone, it still can be used! I can actually click icons, accidentally send texts, etc. but no image....
Here's where it gets weird.
If I tap the screen two to four times and THEN press the power button, my screen turns on! I'm then able to use the phone like normal. Crazy!
However, for whatever reason I cannot use this trick when I get a phone call. So I just have to call people back.
Has anyone experienced this before? Do you have any tips to fix the problem? I have already tried restarting the phone, and powering it off and turning it back on. My last resort is a factory reset.
Welcome to XDA
May be a rootkit. If your running anything lower than Android 9, a factory reset may not purge it ie X-helper. The longer you wait the more damage malware can potentially do.
Delete Google account from phone and...
Nuke it, then reset your Google account password after factory reset.
If it persists, reflash rom. If it still persists it's hardware.
Two days ago I did click a link in a spam ad. And then yesterday the problem kicked in, so your suggestion has some pretty strong credibility in my mind. I'll take the actions you recommend. Thank you!
Maybe go with Brave browser in the future and add this modification to the new load. It globally blocks ads and some of the worst sites as well.
