Fix possibility
Hey thanks for your video.
Anyone knows if there is a repair possibility for this?
I thought of opening my N1...remove the button and repair it or put some aluminium paper there....
any ideas would be helpfull....i've almost destroyed my power button trying to power on with a car key....
I got my nexus one power button fixed in htc service center in Bangalore... Costed me around 2000inr... but worth it

Ya, "2000inr", remember that everyone...
:/
And no, it will come back again. I've sent mine in four times for this.
Surgery time
I've decided to open my phone....
i found some images from ifixit and an opening guide so i ll attempt to open it and fix power button by placing some aluminium foil there.
Let's hope this will work.....
I'll let you know when i am finished.
I have exactly the same problem. My power button randomy stopped working so I turned the phone off thinking it was the phone itself.. so now I can't turn it back on again!
I've tried the battery thing with a USB charger, it charges but it doesn't turn my phone on. I cannot live without my nexus! Help!!
When led light turns on while charging, pull the battery. As soon as the light off, insert the battery. Don't wait until blinking led.
There's been so many guides and also video on it.

Remember, you can still flash CyanogenMod and friends even with a broken power button. Just don't forget to get ClockworkMod Recovery + Touch from

You can navigate with either the soft buttons or moving in a direction on the screen. It's pretty slick, I think, compared to using the volume buttons + power.
I upgraded to an HTC One a month ago in T-Mobile and now randomly the phone won't turn on. The phone is rooted, unlocked, custom recovery, and has the Android Revolution ROM. I installed everything the first week I got it and it has been working perfectly fine (No freezes, battery discharging has a good rate) and everything works (Wifi, 4G LTE, Bluetooth). The phone has not been dropped, water damaged, or exposed to any excessive heat, so it should not be having problems.
Yesterday (9/14/13), I was using the phone just fine around 8PM with my friends in a restaurant and everything seemed fine. A few hours later when I was walking down the street, I take my phone out of my pocket and when I hit the power to wake up the phone nothing happened. I pressed the power button for 10-20 seconds and nothing.
When I got back to my room and plugged it in, the LED did not turn on or anything and when I pressed the power button again after being plugged in, nothing happened. I charged it all night and decided to work with it today, but nothing has helped. I have tried holding the power button and volume keys for minutes, holding power button and nothing. When I plug in the phone to the PC it detects it (Windows USB sound in) and when I press the power button for around 15 seconds it makes the sounds but then it makes the removed usb sound.
Since the phone is Rooted, unlocked and has custom recovery and rom, I'm not sure warranty would help, ALTHOUGH since it doesn't turn on and physically is not tampered with, they could get it to at least turn on.
Please help me out here as I am a college student and really need my phone for work and to stay in touch with my parents. Thank you, and I apologize if I didn't follow a posting guideline.
P.S. One of the causes could be a drained battery, but the charging all night should have helped.

Try holding the power button and volume down buttons down, while holding the proximity sensor directly under a very bright light...
This actually happened to me on my first HTC one I couldn't get it to do anything I ended up sending it to HTC I knew they would deny my warranty claim because of the bootloader and ROM but I knew they would have to turn it on yo figure it out. They called me to tell me that it was not covered and said it would cost 215 to put it back to regular I denied and paid the $35 diagnostic fee when I got it back I booted straight into fastboot and flashed my backup.problem solved

This actually sounds like a great, thanks , but before sending it out I think I would like to try other solutions since it would suck to not have my phone for 2-3 weeks. Also, how long did the whole process take for you? (Sending it out, "repair", and getting it back)
This happens to a guy in another thread. He fixed it by leaving it in the wall charge until the red LED turned on, it took 4 days on the charge.
Hey it actually only took about 1week take it back to your carrier have them send it for you. I also heard about leaving it on the charger for a long time I tried over night and it didn't work the next thing I did was send it to "repair" but if you have the patience leave it on change for a few days first

I have a Verizon HTC One exhibiting the exact same symptoms. The battery went dead after a long day and it will not turn on or charge. I have held the proximity sensor in bright light while powering on and while holding both vol up and power. Neither seemed to change the problem. How bright of a light are we talking? Thanks in advance. I am also curious why this works....
Maby i can help^^

Its so that if the phone is in your pocket it won't start up as the proximity sensor detects the phone is in your pocket so tells it not to start up. Sometimes the sensor doesn't work as it should and needs a really intense light to overwhelm the sensor and let the phone start up.

Put it under a desk lamp!
I had the same exact problem. My phone couldn't turn on after it reached 0% and there was no orange light when charging. I put the phone right under my desk lamp and held the power button for 15 seconds and it turned on. Thought people were just trolling... The battery was at 1% when it turned on. I already left the phone in wall charge overnight. Guess it was not charging very well. Thanks for coming up with this solution!
It worked!!!
WOW The light over the sensor worked for me too!! I'm glad I came to this forum first!!:laugh::laugh:
Doesn't work for me
This REALLY sucks I just got this HTC One used and I was using it all yesterday and this morning with no problems. Then all of a sudden a couple hours ago it just shut down - I was just browsing the web, so it wouldn't have overheated.
Now, it won't charge (the LED doesn't come on) although it was at about 50% when it shut down. I can't get into the bootloader or recovery, and ADB doesn't recognize that it's plugged in (despite Windows playing the little jingle indicated it's been connected).
Ever since then I've been scrounging the web for answers, What exactly have you guys done for this light trick to work? Because I've held it under a bright LED and under a desk lamp with a 13W CFL bulb, while holding power + volume down, but haven't had any luck.
How long have you guys held them down for?
I haven't even seen the capactive buttons light up (although it's just kinda hard when you're holding it under a light, so maybe they are flashing I just can't see) and the only sign of life from this is the fact that Windows installed Qualcomm drivers and plays the jingle indicating that it's detected a device.
EDIT: Forgot to include, I've been trying to leave it sit charging (one person mentioned their friends' One worked after leaving it charging for 4 days - I'm not sure I can wait that long, but if I have no other option I will).
Also, should I leave the SIM in or would it not matter (personally, I don't see that making any difference whatsoever, but I really don't care at this point)? And should I alternate light/darkness while holding the buttons under a lamp, or just leave it under the light and hold them? (I've tried all of these things, but I'm willing to pursue whatever avenue had the greatest success rate).

Ya, I tried looking into that before, and there's nothing there. Now I'm trying to find out what/where that Qualcomm driver is that was installed.
EDIT: I DO see it in the Devices/Printers as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3).
I've also installed HTC Synce Manager, but I'm not sure if that just automatically installed the drivers or if there's something I should do to manually install those.

Sorry to hear that. You are hard bricked, send it to warranty.
Edit: The motherboard is fried and HTC would have to change it. The phone is used so contact the seller and ask him for warranty information.

Well, since you're under warranty, doing anything else just doesn't make sense. And using jtag would require you to open the phone, and trust me, you don't wanna do that to this phone.. Just out of curiosity, what are the first 5 digits of your serial no?

Ok, I have a HTC One from new, only a few months old. 4 days ago I rooted my device and flashed with Android Revolution HD, Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean) - latest official HTC One 3.57.401.500 (WWE) firmware (3x.x series). Everything has been working like a dream, perfect.
Last night I was listening to some music via Google Play when everything stopped and went blank, I pressed the power button and the bottom buttons flashed 4 times (reboot?). The battery at the time was at 70% +
No matter what I try now, power + up volume, power + down volume, power + both volume, just power will not get my device to boot. I am currently leaving it plugged into the mains to see what happens but there is no LED light on.
Can anyone out there help me besides saying send it back for repair
Many thanks in advance
One thing to add. When I plug the phone into the PC via USB, I can press power and up or down volume and can hear the connect and disconnect sounds happening with my HTC One but still no power or sign of life. Anything going on I can't see?

Going through exactly the same thing here. Phone was working just fine, had stock Android 4.3 installed after rooting with CWM and now the only response I get from it is when I hold down volume down and the power button I get the USB unplug/plug unknown device sounds on the PC.
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.

So now if you hold the phone power+vol down buttons the lights don't flash? Try holding them for longer, also try holding a flashlight to the light sensor while holding the button combination..

my htc one is flashed with google edition 3.4 for few months ,suddenly it is black and no charging light nor response to any combination of power plus volume
I put for few hours on charging no any response
when plugging it the desktop in device manager just feel like something is attached to pc (do just like(refresh)
I've just read about how this problem could've happened because of using 3rd party chargers with a higher voltage/ampere rating.. Is that true?

It's just weird. I've taken great care of the phone and it bricked for no decent reason. It wasn't charging or anything. It was simply on the top of a table, in the shade. Whenever I plug it into the computer, I get the QHSUSB_DLOAD unrecognized device, which is also weird. If the motherboard is fried, it shouldn't be recognized at all, right?

It will actually get recognized.. But this unfortunately is a hard brick.. Looks like this is the mode in which Qualcomm/HTC inserts initial codes into the phone to make it work.. Like maybe it programs the bootloader at this stage?

I'm downloading the RUU as a hail mary, but I'm not very hopeful. Worst part is that I live in Brazil and have a device from Australia. It's going to be a HUGE amount of trouble to get it replaced, apart from all the stuff I had on it.

You need to be able to boot up at least in fastboot mode to flash an RUU.. I tried when my phone died.. 99% it won't work. Getting a replacement is all you can do.. Unless you find somebody in your area with a jtag box and a good level of expertise/experience.

Yeah, some places have the JTAG box around here, but they don't work with HTC One, since the device didn't officially come to Brazil. I guess I'll have to figure out how to get my phone to Australia and then back again.

Try these steps to boot:
Hold your HTC One's light sensor below BRIGHT light then try some combinations with volume down and powerbutton until it boots... If it doesn't tell me

My phone just did the same thing. Tried to turn it on and nothing Plugged in the charger and no light.
How I turned it on.
Hold down the volume up key and the power key for days, it finally turned on. Battery had 80% charge. Powers up and charges now. Let me know if it works for you.
Hello,
My Phone Suddenly Stopped working while i was accessing an app on it. I suddenly got app fore close errors of almost all the apps running in background. Than phone lost its signal. i tried force rebooting it by holding on the power button. the button lights (at the bottom) blinked for few time and my phone got off. And never turned back on. I am not getting Red Charging LED. i tried all the combinations of power button with volume rocker up,down, holding three buttons simultaneously. i tried charging my device on regular intervals from 15 minutes to 2 hour. but it wont turn back on. i was on insert coin 6.0-5. i am using original charger to charge my phone.
Please tell me any alternates i should try.

Connect it to your pc. Look in device manager. Does it say something like QHS-USB DLOAD?

Well, don't bother, your phone is hard bricked, take it to the service center and get it repaired. They'll change your motherboard for you.

well That Sucks. Will they change it under warranty? My bootloaders were unlocked nd i was running on Insertcoin Rom. Is There any probable reason for such cause?

Yep, they won't have a clue, they can't turn the phone on either. I don't know about a reason, mine bricked in the same way, was running ViperOne and s-off, unlocked. They replaced it for me, no questions asked.

hey i am also from mumbai and my phone is also not working same way as yours .
i was transfering files from pendrive using usb otg cable.
i was using htc one with maximus hd sense rom s-off and rooted with the necessary charger.
it wont start as well as no red led is turning on .
it seems to be bricked.
if you have gone to service center then please reply me imediately.
I don't know what to do now, I'm feeling depressed just by thinking about my problem. Okay, so just to give ya the backstory (nothing big), my phone's battery died when going home to the gym (automatically shut down), didn't think much about it. I got home, after awhile, I plugged in my HTC One into the charger and it wouldn't charge at all!!! :crying: Never happened to me before, I'm running on the latest TWRP, and on the Google Edition rom. Now on to what I did next.
I tried just leaving it on there for a few hours, NOT A PEEP, no LED light, nada just completely dead. Then I plugged it into the laptop USB port, it doesn't recognizes the device but it did install a driver too (forgot what it was called though). And the computer does indeed recognizes the device's existence cuz I hear the computer make that sound when you hook it up to the computer. Also in the the Devices and Printers on Windows 7, it either says Unknown Device or USB Input Device depending on what USB port I hook it up to. And after a few hours charging from the PC, the LED light did come back but only the low battery is dead pulsing (dunno what else to call it lol, its not the solid LED light). And it only does it for a few minutes, goes away then repeats. So does that mean there is some glimmer of hope? I've tried holding the Power button for a minute or 2, nothing. Power button + Vol Up? Nope. Power button + Vol Down? Nope. Do all of those while the LED light is pulsing? Nope. When its completely black? Nope.
So what can I do?! I can't claim warranty because I bought this off Craigslist (plus I'm rooted, so that would be moot anyways), can someone help this depressed as heck man? Its like I'm watching my best friend die slowly. :crying: lol. Sorry if it was a long read, just wanted to put everything in OP, would appreciate the help!

Thank you for responding. Yeah, I tried those 2 steps, so far no good. I'm just very confused because when I charge the One by my PC, the LED orange light just blinks for awhile then goes away, then the cycle continues, does that mean the battery isn't 100% completely dead? god I'm so confused and sad at the same time lol.
This seems to be happening with TWRP 2.7.x. If you can possibly flash a different recovery you may resurrect your phone...

How can I flash anything when the phone wont wake up? ugh, the only hope I'm getting is that the LED is blinking from time to time, meaning there's at least something going on.
Anyone else?
Anyone? I guess theres nothing else to do huh?
*If* twrp 2.7.0.0 caused your issue (which is hard to say since we don't know which recovery you are using) then somehow you have to overwrite the recovery in fastboot.
The phone needs to be able to boot into HBOOT and then go into fastboot. the battery will have to have enough charge for the recovery flash to succeed.
i honestly don't know the next step for your case, maybe someone else can help.
