A friend of mine was at the beach over the weekend. He had his atrix hd with him. He said that it did a tone, I assume a shutdown audio or something, and not his phone won't dock, usb charge, wall charge, car charge, and turn on. Is he SOL?

Has he tried holding power button and both volume buttons and the same time for a few seconds.
Ya... I tried that. Tried a combo of all 3, power+vol up, power+vol down... nothing. I had a atrix 4g and you could remove the battery, I guess there is no way to do it with the hd?

Ya but that is not the same as doing a battery pull.
Is there a way to force it to power on?
Sent from my PACmaned SCH-I535
idk about forcing to power on but the reason i linked the vid was to show the process of geting to the battery and removing it since its built in its not as simple.
You could try hooking a factory cable up to it.

That cable is probly won't do much more than add extra cash to a dead phone I would say get a replacement from your provider I live on an island in a beach community an have had one go out due to what I think was lite water in the phone an the ear piece stopped working spear was good but not the ear piece anyway probly got it sum water on it an it died (ever herd a death rattle) had to say it

Was excited opened the box today and played with the nexus 7 for about 3 hrs. Installed some apps and download a movie. Then the screen went black and never came back. It was charging at the time. Tried holding the power button for 10 seconds and nothing. Called Google they said hold all three buttons, that did nothing. Guess I'm taking it back to game stop. Going to have to wait for another to come in. Anyone else have this issue out any ideas

There was another similar occurrence earlier today. Think it was from UK maybe? Most likely you'll need to call Google for RMA.
Which firmware were you running?
Google said return it to game stop. Gs said they would take it back. It was running the latest update. Bc it ran an update after I opened it

Yup, I had exactly the same problem. Screen froze, flickered and then died completely. Btw, if you press the bezel around the screen is the left hand edge in portrait spongier/less robust than the rest of the device?

Hmm. Don't want to be "that guy" but... You only mention taking it out and playing.
Did you actually try plugging it in?
Edit: Woops, missed it on my phone. If it was charging, I'd advise you to get in touch with google. Try volume up + power for 10 seconds too though, just to be sure.

I hope mine is not faulty, it is on its way.
Similar things have happened on my Lumia 900. It has helped me to plug it in and out over and over and then try the button reset.

After getting an RA from ebuyer, I now have it working again after a number of hours on charge and doing much as txaggies07 quote suggests. I think there may have been a problem that the charge wasn't going through properly yesterday, even though I plugged it in and it registered on the icon top right. Once the screen died there was no response with the usual charging icon even after disconnect and reconnect (I even tried a different mains socket!) However, since I got it to boot again I have had 2 random reboots without doing anything taxing on it.
It is kinda flaky behaviour, but maybe it is worth a shot aklbeach? At least until Monday !

How were you charging? If by computer USB port that's probably why

Mains socket, as stated.

Yea I tried holding the power button for ten seconds and holding all 3 buttons like Google recommended. I already returned it to game stop. Now just waiting on another. It was plugged in to the wall charger. It was showing that it was charging and I tried plugging it in again the next day and still didn't do anything.

I had a similar experience. Played with mine for about 6 hours.
Testing things, trying things out, downloading apps, etc.
Put it to sleep and was preparing for bed myself. After a few minutes
I decided to download one more app. Tried to wake it up, but it was dead!
Tried all sorts of things: long press, pressing several of the buttons, tried
to connect it to PC to see if it would be recognized -- no go
I then plugged it into the wall to charge it overnight to see if that would work (no charging icon showed up)
The next day, still dead.
Called Google Play and they are sending me a new one.
I would say pull the battery for a minute and then plug it back in a try again but i think that might void the warranty. Seriously my G2 does that when its in my pocket sometimes and pressing the power button does nothing until a pull the battery. I'm about 68% sure that pulling the battery will get it to boot again.
Honestly though any electronic device with a sealed battery should come with on of those paperclip hard reset buttons, unfortunately logic fails some time.

No worries, not a waste. I had to check myself when it died. And when it wouldn't charge (did I turn it on at the wall? Maybe the socket is broken? Has there been a power cut? Am I imagining this?) Weird thing was it came back to life after much fiddling. I now think there may have been a stray piece of plastic or similar covering a pin and blocking the feed.

So OK guys here's your time to shine! I put my bionic on the charger last night and when I wake up the white notification light is on and the phone won't power up. I've tried battery and sim pulls as well as plugging it in without the battery and trying to power it up. I can't even boot to recovery! Any help would be appreciated!

My phone did the same thing one time - bad battery. Worth a shot.
Its your battery dude. Seen it several time with multiple phones. Make sure its definitely charging too before you rule in the replacement battery.

You can try the USB hack on it to get to boot up and pull information off if needed. Take a old USB cable that you don't plain on using any more. Strip down the micro USB connection side to expose the internal wires. Use just the red and black ones expose the wire and tend the leads with a soldering iron. Place the red side on the positive side of the battery and the black on negative side and carefully place the battery back into the phone. Plug the other side into the charger and it should jump start it.

It isn't rooted. It's in a case. After a day of work, Tried putting it on, Logo comes up, Then comes off. It's the 7". Tried the Hard Reset and it doesnt seem to help. I put it to charge until I find another solution. What should I do? The logo only come sup when I plug it in to charge.
Sounds like you have a dead battery. Let it charge for a few hours before turning it on.

Woke up this morning after having it charging on the Kindle wall charger and nothing. So I switched the usb cord thinking that might be the issue cause it's always wrapped up to another. The logo came up, Cut off, Came up again, and now it's off. Not sure if it's doing a really long reset cause there are tons of stuff on it, Or if it still charging. We'll see.
There have been numerous reports of bad charging ports on the kfhd's. I would call Amazon and complain. They have been very generous in the past with replacing faulty devices.

UPDATE...
I literally gave it a love tap behind it and it turned on. Will back it up and get a replacement from Amazon. Thanks for the assistance.
The phone was in my pocket and when I pulled it out it was dead. When I press the power button nothing shows up, no LED lights nothing. I've tried hard rebooting by holding Vol+ & Power at the same time even Vol- & Power but still nothing. Does anyone know what the problem is? It's been perfectly functional for a month till now.
If you plug it in to a charger for awhile do you see any lights?

Could it be that it was on without you knowing? The screen, that is. I have heard it and seen it make a change, forget to put it back, screen stays on, battery dies, etc. Maybe it was just an accident? Just keep tabs on it and see how you battery life is after you charge it again.

Try a different power cord.

sounds like it might need a jump charge, make sure you're using the htc charger and cord that came with the device. if you still cant get it to charge take it into a sprint store and tell em the phone died and cant be charged, they'll use some special thing to jump start it
On my friends LTE I googled something similar and found that on that phone u had to reset the battery charge logic by holding power, volume up, and volume down for 2 minutes. It started taking a charge after that. Might be with a shot?

Glad it fixed yours, my friends EVO is dead, she jumped off the HTC ship and got herself an s4 :/ lucky for me though because she doesn't feel the need to use her upgrade (47 days) and we are on the same account. So she said I can use hers instead of mine (228 days)
