Hi all im really looking for some help before i give in and send my for repair. I have only had it a week and earlier today it suddenly stopped working but just before it did it said the xperia home has stopped and then the phone went off and wouldnt turn back on. When i finally managed to get it to come back on i get just the sony logo then a blank black screen with a backlight on and nothing else this then loops back into the sony logo then the blank screen. Iv tried charging the phone. Connecting to a computer does not work as it cant recognise the device. (otherwise i could have reset the phone). Iv tried volume up and power get the three vibrations then it ends up doing the same thing when i switch back on. Then volume down and power while plugged into computer but the green light comes on for a brief second then goes again. Im really baffled as to whats happened and any advice would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance, sorry for the long post

Hey.
My Diamond seems to be dead. Yesterday and this morning it seemed to be working just fine. Then it begin taking a lot of time to get the screen on and now the phone won't turn on at all.
When I plug in the charger, now, there is no light going around the d-pad, as usual.. The computer didn't even detect any new hardware when I connected it..
When I press the soft reset button nothing happens. I tried booting it to the tricolour screen, but as it doesn't even want to turn on it was to no avail..
Is there any way to repair it without having to send it to an HTC repair centre? 'Cause I'm afraid that is not option..
Or am I ****ed?
Have you tried pulling out the battery and leaving it for about 30 seconds then put it back in?
Yes. It still doesn't turn on.. ):
Hey, I have been given a phone off a friend to fix but it wont turn on. Booting normally, I get a vibration and then the backlight comes on but i cannot see anything. When i try to boot into the bootloader by holding the camera button and powering it on, the backlight comes on but nothing else. I cannot see the bootloader. Under both circumstances, I cannot turn the phone off. I have to pull the battery to turn it off.
Does anyone have any suggestions about a possible fix? Thanks
Havie you tried send when trying to enter bootloader? If it resets then you can still get to bootloader. If not, your friend has soft bricked and only way is to JTAG which takes strong hardware knowledge and steady hands.

ok im having the exact same problem. actually i thought it was a battery problem so i spent 77$ on a 3700 mAh new batter i guess tripple life... and got it yesterday booted gave same problems. black screen where T-Mobile should be yet the rom loads with scribble screen meaning u see part but it looks like the pixels are messed up. so actually decided to resort to what someone told me a Factory Reset so Pressing Camera + Power i got a Black Backlight screen yet wont show... and I cant turn it off without Taking out the Battery this has become a issue after installing cyanogen 5.0.7 T5... since then i Re-rom'd to superbad 1.2.5 same problem screen scribbles and stops im thinking did I fry it i dont even know how to google my problem because its pretty unique it isnt a battery issue its something in the hardware ... or am I wrong please send us some feedback... ill keep this thread in mind
Sorry, what do you mean by 'send'. I am a complete noob when it comes to G1's. I have worked out i can shut off the phone by holding call + menu + end but thats it. I still cannot see anything at all on the screen. I still only get a vibration on boot. How would I know if the boot has been sucessful but i simply cannot see?
Could the flex ribbon cable be nackered?
I am in the process of calibrating my battery. It was full and finally died after a good while. I put it on the charger and waited a couple minutes and tried to boot it up because I needed to make some calls and it goes thru the boot screens and animation and will dim but then it goes black. I press the menu button and end button to turn on the screen but it doesn't work. It will boot into recovery and the buttons work there. I have no idea whats wrong with the phone. Can anybody help me with this problem? Thanks in advance.
Edit: When I plug it in via usb the screen turns on but there is no touch response when I try to slide the unlock tab or sound tab.
I have no idea what caused it or fixed it. Randomly happened and randomly fixed itself.. everything is working fine now.
Help. I was in a Facebook message conversation and I tried to send a picture from my phone to my friend. When I did so the screen turned black (notification bar was still visible) and nothing would respond, be it the power button, home button, whatever, nothing worked. So I held the power button until it turned off and and then tried to turn it on. It seemed to boot but after the splash screen I just got a black screen. I pressed the power button, the home and back keys flashed for a long while and then it turned off and now it won't turn on. If I plug it into the charger it also won't react, no charge light, nothing. It doesn't even get warm.
Right now I DO NOT have the money to get a new phone so if anyone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it.:crying:
Oh, forgot to mention that everything is stock, no roots, no mods, no nothing.

What happens when you press the power button + the volume down button? That should normally bring you into the bootloader. From there you could do a factory reset.

Plug you phone into the computer, have a look in device manager does it say QHSUSB_DLOAD ?
if so you have a hard brick, theres 1 of 2 things you can do, you can try this and risk voiding your warranty (if its still under warranty......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770684
Or you can send it back to where you brought it and have it repaired / replaced.
Well, there's no warranty and sending it in would cost me around a hundred dollars in shipping plus the return shipping plus any repairs so that's not really a viable solution. The power button and volume down didn't work. I had actually tried it. Didn't get a chance to try the QHSUSB_DLOAD thing but I doubt it as I had gone through all the updates in sequence and the last one was whenever the Sense 6 update came out so it had been fine for weeks with no hitch.
Yesterday I went to the places that fix phones to see if any of them could help and then suddenly at one of them (the first one wanted me to leave it with them and I didn't feel they were trustworthy enough, the second was about to try to open it without even knowing how so I stopped him before he could break it, the third one wouldn't even look at it and suggested I send it in to the htc repair center which doesn't exist in this country). At the 4th place it miraculously started working but I don't know how long it will keep on that way.
Thanks for the help and the suggestions.
Hi,
This morning I woke up, my phone was locked on the screensaver, nothing was happening at all. So I har shut it down by keeping the power button pressed.
Since then, I can't turn it on anymore and it does basically nothing. I tried a hard reboot with power button and volume down (and tried also with volume up or both at the same time).
I also tried to plug it in the charger or in the computer but nothing happen at all.
I don't understand, it was working perfectly fine, I have no idea about what to do.
Thanks for any help.
Does it load the miui logo or it doesn't even light up at all?
If it doesn't turn on at all, then that has got to be a hardware issue and you gotta go for repair, if it does load the miui logo, then I can try and help you
