So, I posted this on facebook group, but maybe there is someone in here who can help and isn't part of the group, so i'm posting here too .
So guys, i have a situation here, i was charging my phone, everything was okay, then it started to rain and started to lightning, the next day, when i took my phone off the charger, it wasn't working, it wasn't turning on, then i brought it to the support, they said everything was fine and even the phone was turning on, but not getting out of the logo screen, they didn't know how to enter in S/W mode, so i took it back and now the phone is with me, but it doesn't wanna turn on, even in the S/W mode. Then i ask you guys, there is anything i could do? If there is, please let me now, or do they lied to me ? I didn't want to get rid of my OB that soon. PS: I was using CM10.1 with ZeroGravityKernel.
The phone now turn on sometimes, stays awake for 30s and then blacks out .
I'm able to enter S/W mode but can't use Smartflash, it takes a least 2 minutes to use it D: .
what do you mean by only 30s? Like the battery dies after 30s or it just turn off?
Before sending your OB to service again change the battery instead it might not function well anymore due to the lightnings.
wait, Using smartflash you don't need a battery! So if your phone still turns off after 30s... it's actually the phone itself then...
try an "active boot" :
remove the battery, hold power key, then plug the charger until the logo appears. if the airplane mode was OFF, phone will boot, then reboot and will display the battery missing mesage. you may activate the airplane mode in a very short time before this occurs. from there you'll see if the phone stays ON or not. If not, that means this is a software or hardware issue. if it stays ON, that means there is a problem with the battery itself, or a charging issue

Hey there.
I have my HTC S730 for nearly 2 months now.
I don't know why but my Wings plays a strange melody and then turns off.
Even if the battery is fully loaded! After it turned off it takes a long time before i can turn it on again. I can push the start button on the top of my smartphone but nothing happens.
I don't know what it is. I Hardresetet my device 3-4 times now but it's still not working correctly.
Can you please help me?
Did anyone recieve the same "error"?
I have the same error!
But no solution.
It happens sometimes, mosty not logical... I'll wait for a few weeks, if it keeps on i'll go back for warranty!
What are you running when the reboot occurs? Never looked but is there a way to schedule it to do such a thing?
Does it display anything on screen before it happens? You might check in the power options to see if its shutting down due to some setting...
When I have some time I will dig through mine and take a look.
Off the top of my head I would surmise that its either overheating and shutting off, an installed application is causing issues and it is turning off, a setting within the phone is causing it to turn off, or something is wrong with the device.
May be caused by overheating. I have no other applikation installed on my Device since i Hardreset it. It shows up the HTC logo when it shutsdown.
I dont run any applications at all. Sometimes i listen to music with the Music Player.
When i start my phone up again (after some waiting time) it shows me that my battery power is 0. After some time of waiting it shows me that my battery is nearly fully loaded.
It only happens 1 or 2 times per day.
But please help me
It's not overheating in my case.
I saw it happen last time (5 minutes ago), just before the HTC logo is saw a little cross trough the battery indicator. I suppose the battery is not good? After reboot the indicator shows a full battery??
I would give HTC a call about those batteries. I would think that they are bad, or the phone is having issues drawing power from them and so it shuts off.
If its overheating it should be VERY warm to the touch, I have gotten mine warm but never hot after some heavy use, but I just let it cool off afterwards and it was just fine.
Usually with low battery it will flash a warning on screen and make a noise indicating low battery, but if the battery suddenly is in zero the phone could automatically shut off. Does it power off quicker than a normal shut down sequence? I would have thought that the phone would just run until it's instantly cut off by a dead battery, but if its misreading it or reads it in the danger zone it could have an auto shut down.
Had the same thing with my wings/s730.
After hard resetting it it worked fine again.
I'm having a very strange issue with my SGS. I have ONE's 8.3 ROM and the device is functional. But, when i shut the phone down i can't turn it on. Every time I shut it down and then try to turn it on by pressing the power button, de loading circle image show up but a few seconds later the screen turns black, and cycle repeats forever.
The only way I am able to turn the phone on is to connect the usb data cable to the phone and an pc usb port where the phone has been connected before (any other port won't do), afterwards the battery starts to charge (even if full) and I can turn the freaking phone on.
Things i've tried:
Changed ROMs (CM7, MIUI, One), changed Kernels, wiped battery stats
Please help me as this is a very strange problem.
PS: is my phone is in that infinite cycle, i can enter in download mode but not in recovery
If you can enter download mode then try flashing a stock ROM via Odin.
i already try it and have the same problem with stock rom
I think your proximity sensor is not working anymore.
A friend of mine got a similar problem.
His phone won't wake up after having a call.
He only was able to turn it on by connecting it with USB or AC.
I also think you have to send it in for repair.
I'm sorry mate, but that's my solution
Well, maybe someone got a better one.
but my sensor its working perfectly i think inst it... :/
I've never understood how the screen works while charging, while the phone is off. Is this some sort of system partition, or low powered mode? The reason why I ask, is whenever I try and charge it, the screen stays on, along with the LED Notification light. It never changes, and thus, I can never tell when it's 'fully' charged.
Any help? Is there a way to fix this by flashing something? I feel weird having my screen on all night trying to charge my phone.
Also, I forgot to mention, I can't turn it on, while it's off and charging. If I try to, it seems to freeze, and the only way to turn it on, is to disconnect, and hold the power button until it reboots. Have I messed up something crucial?
Hello, XDA developers. As you may see, this is my first post, but I would like you to tell me what happened with my cellphone.
Something weird happened with my S Advance after I rooted it and installed CyanogenMod 11. I was playing on it, as I changed MinFree settings and overclocked the processor and wanted to check how the performance increased. Suddenly, the phone abruptly shut off without showing the traditional dialogue box that should appear.
When I took the phone to connect it to my battery pack I waited for like 5 minutes and the battery symbol never appeared; after that I tried to turn it on but it didn't work either. As soon as I arrived home, I connected a proper charger to the S Advance and, still, it didn't respond at all.
About one hour later I took the phone and now, when I tried to turn it on (in normal and recovery mode), it would only vibrate for a few seconds, as if it was actually turning on - with the difference that nothing was happening. The only boot mode that I could enter to was the download mode.
Saddened because I thought it was bricked, I came to my room and plugged it to my computer. The screen instantly showed the battery charging sign, and when I turned it on everything was normal. I used my wall charger to try, and it keeps working fine.
I understand that when a phone battery reaches 0%, and you try plug it to a charger you need to wait like 10 minutes to actually turn it on. But in this case was an hour! And when I finally turned the phone the battery was at 0%.
Could you tell me what happened (for potential future ocasions)?
Hi guys, I have a huge problem.
Currently I'm on vacation in Croatia, where it's around 38-40 C every day. One day I had to log into an unsecured wi-fi. I know, i shouldn't have done that but it was urgent. Well, the same night (while charging) my phone turned off itself and I had to turn it back on on the next day. It worked the whole day until I opened the camera. Suddenly the phone went off and I wasn't able to turn it on. At first I thought the battery has drained so I plugged it into the original OP charger (dash). It gets warm while charging, but the LED is not turning on. After an hour of charging I still can't turn the phone on. Not even after a charging over night. There's also no vibration after holding the power button, neither holding the power-button for 20 (or more) seconds . I can't even get into recovery mode by holding volume-down and power.
I'm on original Resurrection Rom.
Is there anything else I could try? Could it be that some hardware is damaged (overheated)?
Since I'm on vacation there's currently no way for me to do any kind of unbricking until I find some phone-repair service.
I'm not a pro, but Im pretty sure the problem occur on the hardware side since the phone is not taking the charge and no vibration
I once had an Android phone (not 3t), the same thing occured, the phone I had had some hardware damage near the battery so I experienced the same problems you listed, ended up getting a new phone
Overheating is probably not the issue, at least not the 40C air temps you mentioned. These devices can probably something like 60C (internal temp at CPU or battery) before seeing any damage. Lot of folks live where it's just as hot as where you are, if not hotter. So I have to think the device is designed to work under such conditions.
Try holding the power button longer (a minute or more). I don't know about this device. But on my old HTC M8, there were instances where the phone powered off by itself. And the power button needed to be held over a minute, to make it boot. Although no charge LED is concerning.
Mine did the same a few days ago, was tethering and the phone just shut off. Buttons didn't work, no vibration, no charge LED, no anything. Thought it died but after plugging it into a PC it was detected as QHSUSB_BULK (hardbrick).
But it turned on normally after a minute lol.
Hallo. Mine also crashed. I was in the sunset playing game and taking pictures. Then phone suddenly got so warm and lagged, It turned off itself. No reaction. I connected into charger and then turned on hopefully. I think you must take care, because it has metal body and easy heating, and when heating it's lagging and not works good
My opinion is that it's overheat problem

You will see Qualcomm download mode message (QHSUSB_BULK) whenever the device is powered off. It needs to be powered on, at least to bootloader (or recovery or OS) for the PC to connect in any other way.
Update
After 3 days, it finally turns on and charges as expected. Don't know if it has to do anything with it, but i let it in the charger for 1 day.
but now another problem occured.
every time I press the homebutton the phone crashes and goes off. this only happenes if the fingerprintscanner is not requested.
i.e. unlocking phone with fingerprint, does not crash, but... pressimg homebutton to go back to home screen crashes.
