Hello, my key light is stuck on on the front of my phone. Even when the phone is off, and I take the battery out, when I put it back in, the lights come on! Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?
Thanks.
We need more information to help you on this one which rom , which kernel etc?
If you're on a custom Rom try full wipe and reinstall

Thank you for your reply, however it seems to have fixed itself, which is funny as I've tried all sorts and had no luck! Oh well, thanks

Hi. Ok, first of all I have done some research on the forum, but I haven't really found any answer for my problem.
I have a Htc touch diamond. And I installed a rom from the forum, i beleive it was the "shine"-rom. However now i gets weird....
The day after, everything was normal, and then all of a sudden my backlight gets really dim. Ok, could be a small bug i thought.
A few hours later it got darker and it was hard to see what was on the display.
And later on the evening it got almost all black. I couldn't quite tell what was what on the display.
The next day, and still, its totally dead. There is no light in the "ring" when i plug in the charger, and i cant get it to show any life.
I have tried everything, left it in the charger for a whole day, swapped battery, reset, hard reset, super hard reset. left it without battery for a day. Nothing.
Help me out. Any ideas?
Ps. There is no warranty on the phone.
Thanks!!
Wow... have not seen this before...
Even now, are you unable to even switch on your diamond? If you can't, don't see any way to revive it. If you can, try to flash another ROM and see if it improves...
How?
How can I flash it again, if I cant even turn it on? hmmm....
Help
Nothing? No idea?
I opened it up, but that didn't shed any major light on the situation....

Can you get it into bootloader? {Hold Vol. down button while pressing power}
If it will go into bootloader, you can flash from there

Nope. He can't even get it to turn on. Don't think it'll be able to boot into bootloader...

It just seems odd that bootloader won't even load. If it was something that damaged the OS then the BL should at least fire up. But, I just re-read everything again & see that there is no mention of Hard-SPL, so maybe it damaged the Boot sector as well.
If he didn't Hard_SPL then: This is a great example as to why you should always Hard-SPL before flashing anything.
If he did Hard_SPL: Then this is one for the medical journals {a disease that no-one's heard of & it's a killer}
Strange
Hi again.
I did actually Hard-Spl. And i have tried different ROM's earlier and I never had any problems.
I dont have a clue what to do, and without any warranty im basicly screwed.
I was thinkin, maybe I could get som spare part? Seeing how the "ring" doesn't even light up when I plug in the charger??

When my "ring" didn't light up I had to send the phone back to HTC and they changed the motherboard. Phone wasn't charging or turning on at all.

Get into bootloader and flash stock ROM, know you said can't use buttons but maybe camera and reset is
May be blind doing so but worth a shot.

I have the same problem, unable to access the bootloader or flash another ROM. Is there a means to flash a new bootloader onto it?

I've had a problem lately too where my screen will go white, while apps still seem to continue running.
Sometimes, just turning off the screen, then sliding it open will fix it. Other times I have to pull the battery.
As of yesterday, I can also no longer read any memory card in the phone. I think its time for a new phone. I just passed that 2 year expiration date.
man...still no answer yet..i have no idea what is going on with this phne..warranty also expired..any help guys???please....

I think the problem are the 2 screen connectors. You must open the screen part of the cover and tighten the conectors.
Good luck.

As the title says my LED on my trackball is stuck green. It started while using Cyanogen's latest rom. Dont know if this has anything to do with using mulitple ROMs and going back and forth between Sense UI and Cyanogen. I have done full wipes between switching roms but have also done Titanium Backup restore after the Roms boot.
I have deleted everything off my SD card (except music, pictures, and a couple update.zips) and done a full wipe in bootloader, ran Titanium Backup batch to delete backup files, and flashed a Desire rom and this problem continues... Any suggestions on how to get this problem fixed? I know i must be missing deleting/wiping something but I cant figure it out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. The trackball will flash other colors for notifications but reverts back to a constant green.
and you've done a full wipe of the data, caches (inc dalvik) and battery & rotating settings?
and you aren't doing a nandroid restore?

Yea. I'm using the amon-ra recovery image. And I did all the wipes that are available in his recovery. Also not doing any nandroid restores. I deleted all my nan backups to make sure they wernt causing problems.
Tried the tutorial to restore to original shipping ROM and settings to get the trackball LED to shut off. Also, I removed my SD card when doing these steps and rebooting.
DIDNT WORK :-( Nothing seems to get rid of/override the setting that is making the trackball stay lit. The ball also stays lit when in fastboot and recovery. Also stays lit when turned off but plugged into USB/charger...
Anyone else have any ideas? Willing to try about anything...
Have you tried pulling the battery out?

Yup, and when connected to USB/charger it lights up green...
Try the "LEDs Hack" app to see if it can turn it off, and then back on.
Maybe its a firmware/hardware problem
My LED is stuck at purple when I set it to flash white. Not a big deal for me, it isn't set to flash white anyway.
Just flashed cyanogen and tried "led hack" no luck. Other suggestions?
Constant GREEN trackball LED
Hi, I have exactly the same problem. Constant GREEN trackball. It does change colors etc but goes back to GREEN. Tried everything possible, but no luck.
There is Google thread which I cant post here where a good few people are having this issue.
If anyone knows a solution, that will be great
My only worry is that the trackball will use battery unnecessary..!!!
green trackball
I have the same issue with my nexus. Its been going on for a while. I've posted on this forum with no replies. I thought I was the only one.
Man I am still waiting for a solution
Is there any solution for this
My phone has the exact same issue and has been "stuck" with the green trackball for a couple weeks now. I've rooted, wiped, tried every trackball program and nothing shuts off the green trackball. Please anyone help
I had the same problem even if it was for only 1hr my trackball light was staying the color red and would not change back. I knew why the trackball was red because there was some water that got on the bottom of my nexus one. what I did and I don't know if this will fix the problem for any of you guys but I took the bottom cover off and made sure it was dry and free of dust then I removed the battery and it changed back to normal.
Try a stock rom
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
My phone has the same issue. I also tried everything including old stock roms and radio images.
I think replacing the trackball flex cable might fix it (no warranty for me..)
Your phone is under warranty.
Did anyone found a solution for this one?
I guess it is not software related but HW.. I get the green led working even when the battery is out and I connect the phone to the power supply...
should I open my Nexus up and clean the contacts?
this sucks... maybe it's a sign to move on to the Nexus S...
I solved this problem this morning using silicagel. Check my post on CM forum CyanogenMod Forum> Google Nexus One> Google Nexus One Stable Mod>Trackball led wont turn off
Well heres the story. I flashed cyanogen 6.0 and all was great,fast,smooth,perfect... Then it all went downhill. The backlight cut out. After wiping,reflashing,doing everything possible as far as that it was still the same.
I soon figured out that if i lock my phone while it was closed, then slid it open and hit menu the backlight would turn on, but it will not work when its not slid open at all.
Problem #2
As i have been dealing with the first problem and i dont have alot of time to fix it because of work and all, it grew even worse. Now when i do what i was doing to get the backlight to come on, The phone will randomly freeze/backlight wont come on at all/ Screen wont even come on.
When i turn on the phone sometimes the screen wont even come on but the backlight will and it wont get anywhere."blank lit black screen no tmobile g1 logo"
This also happens when i go to recovery using home+power. I remedy that by taking out the battery and starting the phone till it works.
Could someone please help me out here i dont really have to much to spend on a new phone and it would be great if i can get this one going like it should again.
you need to wipe before reinstall
if you have armonR, you wipe everything the wipe menu and flash the rom and the flash gapp-3
ive done that many times, hasnt solved anything. i dont know whats going on..getting to the point where i might just break down and get a htc hd2 and put android on it
Try flashing the Defanged Base (which you can find on the cyanogen wiki) then flash the Rom again.
to be honest it was time for an upgrade anyways, now i have the samsung vibrant. Its awesome. Thank you for the help anyways though.

You lucky f***! How are you liking it? I was thinking about getting one soon but i havent talked to anyone with one. Is there anything you dont like about it?
Hi guys, I've been using this rom for a weeks now without any problems until this. I left my phone to charge overnight and turned the charger off when I woke up. I didn't touch my phone until after I got home from school and it's suddenly like this. The power button does nothing, I don't think the 3 buttons do anything. I'm stuck. I created an account just for this. I hope someone will be able to help! I also enabled Battery Doctor's cpu management when the screen is off if it changes anything. Thank You!

Hey, do you maybe have backup from previous rom before flashing? Can you even enter recovery? If yes then try wiping cache..
I hope i helped!

I'm sorry for replying so late but no, I can't seem to be able to get a response from the phone. I also forgot to do a backup which is quite stupid of me. It all happened so suddenly too. Do you think it could be a hard brick?

I am afraid it is .. always do a backup... if you get no response from Odin flashing, nor recovery it's hard brick , as far i know.
There's still 1 more way, the JIG... you can get it from ebay for couple dollars , it's like micro usb which is used for all samsung S models i also read that it was tested for S3 mini and works .. soo try that.
no response from buttons.
Old trick.. Pull your battery hold all three buttons whilst replacing battery. With a bit of luck you should get into either recovery or download mode. Then load a stock rom via odin. Hope this helps.
Another thought has your battery somehow totally drained?
