My power button broke and can't get it to power up. So I can put it back to stock and send it in for warranty, I thought since it don't power up they wouldn't know. thank you
That's impossible - if the phone is powered off, adb/fastboot cannot detect it.

Plus you can't re-lock the bootloader so they are going to know either way that it is not stock. Apparently, they are still covering hardware warranties even if the phone is rooted. Good luck.
PS- Wrong section. This should go in Q & A.
I read something about pulling the battery while charging. Try that.
putting in stock won't help either.. Your bootlader is forever unlocked once it's done.

- power off your phone
- plug the charger (led is orange)
- pull the battery and put it back really quick BEFORE the led starts to blink orange and green

Very interesting!
Got to try that... interesting.
yea I figured out that trick by mistake...I was about to suggest it.
MOD EDIT - Moved to Q&A
You can also plug the phone into usb and it usually automatically boots once it's fully charged.

+1 to this - unlocking the bootloader only voids software warranty, so hardware failure should still be covered.
Mine is at HTC right now for the power button and I left Froyo on it when I sent it in. I sent it yesterday and they said 5 days from the time I gave it to FedEx, so I think it will be back Saturday or Monday. I will post back if theres any trouble with the warranty.

Not true. There is no separation in the warranty since unlocking could affect the hardware if, for example, you loaded a dodgy kernel that overclocked the cpu too far and burnt it out.
You might very well find that if it's something like a power button, they will still do it under warranty since there is no way unlocking could have caused that, BUT they are within their rights to charge you for the work if they are feeling particularly nasty
Anecdotal evidence here seems to suggest that they do cover this kinda thing under warranty but it's always best to know where you stand, legally.
Great trick!
I were also tried finding this secret boot method when I did this:
- Pulled the battery while the phone was ON, an put in back in right away
- Plugged in the charger (no more than 2 seconds later)
The phone gave me a burst of 7-8 vibrations, but did not boot. Does anyone know what it is trying to tell me?
(stop pulling my battery, you jerk?)

Update already!
They said it would take 5 days from the time I dropped it off at FedEx to the time I got it back but I dropped it off at FedEx about 1pm monday and it's going to be delivered back to me tomorrow. Nice.
They didn't say it was fixed, but they said they would call if they had any problems, questions or it was going to cost my any money to fix it and all I got was a "thanks for using HTC, please fill out this survey" email and a shipping confirmation from FedEx, so I assume it's good as new and there was no warranty problem.
EDIT: Got it back today only to find that instead of fixing the button, they replaced it with an unrooted phone running 2.1.
I have a moto cliq and if I remember correctly if you hold the camera button down and plug it into usb power while holding camera button it turns on. Maybe nexus has a trick that is similar.
does the "put the battery before the light turns orange to green" work if my battery is full??
the thing is the power button failed when my phone was being charged....
or do i have to wait for the battery to decrease and try the method then?
It doesn't matter. Usually, you can just put the battery in while the phone is plugged in and it will turn on. If it doesn't work right away, keep trying. You should get it in a few tries.
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?

Good. Now just keep holding the power+vol down till the buttons below the screen flash, then plug it into your pc whole holding the combo, and keep trying till your phone boots up

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..

I got the same problem yesterday
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?

I've been using Samsung and Nokia chargers every now and then. But it seems stupid something like that would be enough to toast a phone. Don't phone components have surge protectors?

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.

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

If ur booted into a ROM, then obviously ur device ain't bricked. If u have the ADB drivers installed properly, the phone's serial number should show.

No the phone does not do anything, no charging light and does not turn on, so it does not go to recovery.
But maybe the phone does get connected trough usb and if i see some serial number that give's me hope that it's not fully bricked.
Or am i completely wrong?

Look, ADB will work only in a fully booted ROM or in CWM/TWRP recovery. Currently, ur phone isn't even turning on. There are many people with this issue. There is no real "fix" as such. Try putting your proximity sensor in a strong source of light for a while. If it doesn't turn on, then HTC will have 2 replace the motherboard, which is really expensive
Try holding POWER + VOLDOWN (phone under a bright light,) after about 5 seconds, buttons should start blinking, and after 20 to 30 seconds, phone should reboot.
you may need to try 2 or 3 times, to get it to work.

My phone was acting very strange. I obtained s-off and decided I wanted to sim unlock. In the middle of the RUU the phone fails. I try to RUU again, phone goes black. Now I don't see any flashing buttons when I hold the power and volume down. Computer recognizes that I plugged the phone in but cannot recognize it after it attempts to read it. I'm pretty sure this is it.
*edit
I've had it plugged in for some hours, and the LED did not turn on. Paper weight.

If the phone failed in the middle of the RUU procedure, well, i think its a hard brick. Im not 100% sure, but i think a motherboard replacement may be the only solution.

Yep u agree. You're pretty screwed. If it's still under warranty you might be safe because it won't boot up. They would just replace motherboard

1- can you get to bootloader?
Force reboot: press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN (under a bright light, not kidding!!), after about 5 seconds or so buttons should start blinking, and after 30 seconds or so, the phone will reboot, let go of POWER, but keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to bootloader.
(you may need to try 2 or 3 times to get it right)
2- does the phone show up in Device Manager? Check what it says, and hope it's not QHSUSB_DLOAD

there are a few ways to hard-brick your phone with S-Off, but in the OP's defense when the phone goes to QHSUSB_DLOAD, it's not because he flashed anything in particular, it would be just coincidence... it's definitely a hardware defect, caused by unknown reasons.
one guy was completely stock, and downloading an OTA (only downloading not installing), when the phone shut-off and went to QHSUSB_DLOAD hard brick.

People in Pakistan doing JTAG for Rupees 2,000/- (20 USD approx) but you wont be able to use sim/gsm again after JTAG... (can be used as an ipod though )
try returning the phone (if its in Warranty) if the warranty can not be claimed then go for JTAG!
p.s. my set is soft bricked (some sort of security triggered in it and i am unable to write recovery or relock bootloaders) waiting for a solution, if my set would be hard bricked i'd go for JTAG!

That's not my phone that is bricked, I just replied after OP said his was bricked. I haven't even got mine yet. Looks like it will be Monday now.
It was in a moment of anger no judging please
1) The screen is obviously destroyed and wont even turn on.
2) My computer doesnt recognize the phone.
3) If its plugged the phone blinks its notification light for like 5 minutes
4) if its unplugged it blinks only when I hold the power button. It also blinks once when I unplug it.
5) I dissamble the motherboard and it doesnt seem to be harmed.
The question is, do you think the phone is dead or should I replace the screen, all repair shops ask me the PIN number to give me a diagnostic, which is reasonable but I dont want to give on my privacy to fix a phone.
Thoughts?

Check the battery flex. Maybe is unplugged. If you don't want to give the pin you should try to change the screen by yourself.

The battery flex is plugged, I tried unplugging it and plugging it in several times and nothing happend, yes I have no problem in changing the screen myself but I I think I have to fix something else before
Why you try to connect to PC? For saving your files?
Maybe u need to change screen first and then if there is any problem you will see it. İ think your problem should be in type c port

So, change the screen. If something else is broken, then you will see it.

It was in a moment of anger no judging please
1) The screen is obviously destroyed and wont even turn on.
2) My computer doesnt recognize the phone.
3) If its plugged the phone blinks its notification light for like 5 minutes
4) if its unplugged it blinks only when I hold the power button. It also blinks once when I unplug it.
5) I dissamble the motherboard and it doesnt seem to be harmed.
The question is, do you think the phone is dead or should I replace the screen, all repair shops ask me the PIN number to give me a diagnostic, which is reasonable but I dont want to give on my privacy to fix a phone.
Thoughts?
Thanks a lot for reading!
