Hey everyone. So today while at work I had my One plugged in and charging, also had an aux cable plugged in listening to music. Out of nowhere I heard the music stop. Went to wake it and nothing but the LED light in red was on. I've held power button for minutes, power+vol + and - for minutes and nothing. I've tried all that with the bright light on the prox sensor as well, NOTNING.
This is driving me insane. I don't get how the red light is constantly on. When I've held the buttons the back and home buttons don't light up at all.
Has anyone had this and been able to fix it? Any help is appreciated!
Thanks guys.
Sounds like phone is dead. Back for warranty!

Yeah I've emailed HTC. I'm keeping the phone unplugged. Going to let it die completely. Hoping the led will turn off and then I'll plug it in. We'll see.

I was using tomtom on my Kaiser yesterday and all of a sudden the screen just went completely white so i powered off the phone and now cannot power it back on, if i attach a charger the left led is just constant red and still won't power on.
Has anyone else had this ?, the manual doesn't say anything about a constant red led i assume i'm going to have to get a replacement unless anyone knows how to get it going again.
it means dead battery. Plug kaiser in external power supply(not computer) and try to power it on. Once it loads put it into standby and let it charge for a few hours.

It happened to me and it never turned on again. I think it's dead. No amount of charging or anything else helped.
Thanks for the replies, just got off the phone to HTC customer services and the Kaiser is indeed dead. booked in for repair so it's back to using the trusty wizard for a couple of weeks.
Hello,
i've done the JB original ota update.
one day, when i was calling my friend, the display become black and never turned on. if i press the power on button, it vibrate.. but i don't see anything..
i tried to repair software with pc companion but... nothing.
anynone with the same problem?
Press the power button and volume up button for 20-30 seconds untill it has vibrated 3 times.
Turn it on.
If it does not turn on, plug it into the wall charger and leave it over night.
In the morning try to turn it on, if it doesnt then it is fubard.
Also, when you say "One day it just didnt turn...." what had you flashed to it? Have you rooted it? Have you unlocked the bootloader? Which ROM are you on?... All usefull info for people trying to help
it's all original. no root no rom. nothing.
while i was talking, when finished, the display was black..

Did you try to turn it on after it vibrated?
If the LED is green whilst connected to the wall charger, try to turn it on again.
Try the power and volume again.
If you ring the phone from another phone does it respond or is it unavailable
1 put wall charger
2 presset power + vol up
3 vibrate one time.. then 3 times.. led RED. if i dont press anything became green. if i press power on remain green.
don't boot anyway..

LEAVE IT.
see what it does tomrrow
ok.. thanks a lot
The phone boot... the touch work... but the screen is black..
Sounds like a hardware issue. Did you drop or damage the phone just before that happened...
No drop.. no water.. just like i said... after finished a phone call,the display was black and never turned on..
Take it back to the shop. If you have not modified it and it "Just Happened" they will have to replace it.
My phone went off due to low batery. I let it charge for sometime 2hours or so, the orange LED was blinking all the time.
Any ideas what is wrong or how to fix? Jeah I tried another charger already

try to hold Power for a while or power + vol down. Do it under a bright light.

Do the Home and Back buttons blink when you hold the power button down? Also, when doing the bright light trick, make sure you're not blocking the ambient light sensor (two holes in upper left corner) with your finger.

Yes they blink, i tried to tryed to turn it off and to shine with a flashlight directly into the light sensor. How does that trick actually work? Should i just let it blink orange the whole night?

Maybe let it charge overnight. My phone has done that occasionally when I've run it all the way down, but a hard reset always brought it back.
The "trick" is really an interlock to prevent you from restarting your phone in your pocket or a purse. If something presses against the power button but it's dark, the phone won't respond.

so it was charging all night, in the morning orange LED was still blinking, phone still wont power one. What does a blinking orange LED mean? Low Battery or charging? Any ideas?

It usually means a low battery. It sounds as if yours isn't taking a charge. Keep trying to power it on, but if it won't go, there may be a hardware fault. It does happen.

Power the One off. Charge for 10 minutes using the wall charger. Then simultaneously press the volume up - volume down - and power button for 2 minutes. Then power the phone up normally. Battery should theoretically be reset.

If you run the battery completely down it will charge very slow for a period of time until it get a certain amount of charge. Hence the orange blicking light. its taking a charge, albeit very slowly.. just leave it plugged in to the wall charger. it may take quite a while. but try resetting the battery first
I have an HTC One. I was using it normally today, but got home and it was one percent. I plugged it up to charge and went to check a notification I had, and it turned off. It has happened before, and the charge light was on and it went straight to the screen where it shows the red battery and percent below it. This was normal - like I said, it's happened to me before. Then, it completely turned off instead of charging. A short time later, the orange charging light went off.
I plugged it up into the wall as advised a forum I was looking at for this problem, and apparently it is a common thing with these phones. I've let it charge for about an hour and it still isn't turning on and both the charge light and the red LED light have not come on at all. I tried to trick where I held it under my lamp light and held the power button and both the up and down volume buttons but it still hasn't turned on. Maybe I just haven't left it plugged up long enough?
Any advice? I use my phone a lot, so I really need it!
Hi.
Some time ago i smashed my m7 so hard it needed a screen replacement. After doing it myself I connected it to charger, LED started blinking red. So, i disconnected phone and tried turning it on, but it only vibrated and LED stopped blinking.
After that and leaving it for whole night charging i got no more blinking or vibrating when i press power button.
Screen never turned on after my fix.
Do any of the XDA magicians have idea what's going on and how i could fix this?
Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:
