[Q] HTC One won't turn on or charge

HTC One won't charge or turn on. I was just sitting around setting up my new computer, and I checked my phone and it was at 1%. I figured I could just let it run out because I wasn't using it. Later, when I went to charge it, I noticed that no LED light was showing up when I tried to charge it. I tried plugging it into the computer, and the computer would make the sounds it makes when a USB is plugged in. When I tried turning it on from there, the computer sounds went back and forth with several seconds in between each beep. There was still no LED light, and I have tried to use the "volume button- power button" booting method but it hasn't worked. I also tried charging it overnight and when I got up in the morning there was still no LED light and nothing else was working. The phone is not rooted, but it did have water damage over a month ago. I put the phone into DampRid for a few nights and my phone was back to normal. I have not encountered any other problems since then, and now my phone will not boot. Any suggestions? Anything I can do?

The only thin that comes to my mind is to change the wall charger or the USB itself and see if they're broken or whatever else....

I tried that and the charger works on other devices. The power outlet is working, and 3 other Micro-USB chargers aren't working on the phone.

Leave it plugged in for at least a day. I've seen all sorts of batteries magically come back to life after being fully discharged

Your pins connection may be broken and they only get energy when the charger is plugged in a particular way, I don't know what to think about...

I decided to put the phone back into the DampRid to see if there was any excess that was left inside of the phone. I pulled it out just before and and saw that I left a little bit in there so I'll leave it in there for a few days. Then, I'm going to try plugging the charger in in different ways and see what happens. Im also gonna try plugging it in for a whole day and see what happens.

UPDATE: It works! I put it in some DampRid for a day and it seemed to do the trick. I plugged in my phone, saw the red LED light come on, and now it is working.

I would suggest waiting for a day or two. Let your device cool down and take it out of it's case if it has one. My HTC One was fine after I let it take a break for a day. I put it in DampRid, but letting it cool down for a day really helped. Letting your battery die is something you should NEVER do because it just happened again to me. I'm going to let it rest for a day and let you know what happens. Hopefully it works.

[Q] Xperia E15i / X8 bricked? No charging.

Battery completely discharged and now the phone does not charge, there is not even LED indicator light. I have tried all suggested button pressing combinations, taking battery out, etc. — to no avail. The firmware is original, without rooting. Charger works fine.
Before the battery discharged, there was a notice on the phone that an update was available — I ignored it while roaming — could that be the problem?
Shall appreciate any suggestions.

Plug it in and leave it for some time. The led takes a little time to light up. If it doesn't work then as long as your charger is ok the battery have died. Either buy a new battery or buy a new phone.

A new phone is, I guess, the best solution... But still I am curious what has happened — are there any geeks up there who know?

Moto X only green light comes on

I started letting my wife use my OG Moto X. She said it prompted her for an update (Verizon BTW) and it updated. The next day she said it rebooted several times and then would not come on. I took a look at it, got it to power on and it locked up and powered off. I got it to try to come up a few times, with various results. I got it to go into the bootloader and tried doing a factory reset, it just tried to reboot back into the phone. It finally would not respond at all. All I get now is when I attach it to the charger, the green notification light will come on for about a min and then go off. I have a charge cable that is "lit" so you can see when it is providing power. It goes off when the green light goes off, indicating that it is not charging. I have used several different cables and chargers as well. I am not sure what if anything can be done. TIA.

What green notification light?

Its the one in the earpiece. Its not normally used on the US phone. I am not sure why I am seeing it now.

The phone's battery is completely dead. When you plug it in to charge it, the green light indicates that the phone is charging but you wont be able to boot up the phone. After a while when its gone there is enough juice in it to power it on. It does not mean that its not charging. Keep the phone plugged in for 15 mins then boot it up. It should work fine.

Been there, done that. It still does not boot. I am thinking maybe the battery is kaput and not taking a charge. If I try to turn it on, the green light will come on for a few seconds and go off. Nothing on screen. Same if I try to go into bootloader by holding power and volume down.

Try the OEM charger and leave it for a few hours.

Let it sit on the OEM charger overnight. Still Dead. The green light came on and stayed on longer than it had before. Now when I plug it in, nothing, no light at all. I have removed the sim card to put in another phone, but that shouldn't matter. I am at a loss now.

you can try connecting it to a computer on a USB2.0 port and leave it there for around 30 minutes. If it doesn't boot, it could be a battery issue.

I have the same issue. I have tried a new battery and still am having the same issue. Anyone have any ideas as of what to do besides buy a new phone?

Phone battery drained now won't power up

Hi all,
Last night I was using my Nexus and the battery died during use. It happens. I plugged it in to charge and got a green LED which I though was odd since I had never seen that before. After a few seconds I got the familiar battery symbol on the screen but I noticed it wasn't charging. unplugged and replugged then went to sleep. I woke up the next morning to a very dead phone. No button combination would power it back on. I thought maybe the phone didn't charge at all so I moved it to a second Motorola Turbo Charger I have and left it for an hour. Came back, nothing. I then moved it to a Qi charger to see what happens. Came back an hour later, nothing again. I've tried several other chargers, and also charging via PC USB to no avail.
When I plug it in to my laptop I do get a "device recognized" tone from Windows 10 but nothing more. Device manager doesn't show me anything. ADB devices doesn't show anything.
At this point what can I do? This is the second RMA I've had to do from Motorola, the first was a bad power button.
Help!

try a different usb chord and try a different charger, they can "die" rather quickly sometimes.

Yep, I've tried several working chargers. No go. Including wireless chargers.

try this, my phone stops charging occasionally and this is what I do.. I boot into recovery(twrp recovery, it shows if charging or not), I see it charging there, then I boot back into system. if you don't have twrp recovery, try it with stock recovery. hopefully you have enough of a charge to try.

Thanks simms, still no luck. There's no charge at all on this one so I can't even get it to recovery.

Try long pressing the power button for 20 seconds...

what's odd is that it won't charge on a wireless charger. my USB is kinda broken, so I use a wireless charger. it could be that the battery itself is messed up, maybe you need a new battery. if you had it here, in NYC, I'd offer to try to fix it for you(no charge), well if it doesn't need a new battery.
---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------
does the wireless charger have a light on it, for when its charging? if you put your phone on it, does a light go on?

Thanks simms!
Still no luck so you're probably right. Likely a bad battery. I contacted Motorola since I bought it from them directly and had me RMA it without many questions. Hopefully I have a working Nexus again in a week or so.

The phone was less than a year old.
It was actually a replacement device as the original one I bought had a bad power button (it was hard to press).

Yes, definitely tried it. Tried getting it into recovery as well without luck.

Mix shut off on its own, won't power on.

Got my mix like 1 month ago. Stock miui and recently updated it to 8.5.4.0. No mods or unlocking the bootloader or anything like that.
Today, it was at 11% so I plugged it in the charger. 5 minutes in I looked at it and it wasn't charging, so I unplugged it and then it turned off before I could plug it back in.
Now it won't turn back on, the charging light won't light up. It looks dead.
I haven't dropped it or spilled any liquids on it. It wasn't exposed to extreme heat or cold and has a case around it at all times.
WTF happened? $650 down the drain?
What are some tricks I can do to try to save it.

I had a similar problem a week ago. Battery went dead and I plugged in the charger. But I discovered after an hour that it didn't charge. I tried turning on the phone, only response was a quick flashing red light. Tried different chargers, tried holding down the power button for a long time, tried the different butto combinations, no luck. Then I just left it in the charger, and after several hours I finally got a response from my beloved Mix. I took a long time to fully charge, but now it is working normally again. Phew! No idea what went wrong. But keep trying and hoping. Good luck!

To the original poster:
Has the phone powered on now? The same thing happened to me too.
My Xiaomi Mi Mix showed low battery sign so I plugged it in to charge. The phone immediately went off. I pressed the power button to restart it, it showed the Xiaomi logo then immediately went off and since then (this was 2 days ago) it has not powered on.
Kindly note the following:
1. It didnt have water spilled on it
2. It didnt fall or have any mechanical damage
The only thing was, the battery was low, I plugged it in to charge and it went off and never came on again. I have used the same charger to charge other phones so I doubt if the charger is the source of the problem.
Kindly help, what is wrong with the phone?
thanks

You could try unplugging battery overnight, watch a tare down first. It's not hard, I would be surprised if you have done any damage.

I havent tried any self repairs or anything funny yet the phone has remained dead.
What can I do now? This is extremely saddening

Mine just did this. My resolve was to hold down the volume up button and then plug the phone in. It should boot into recovery (down for bootloader) and from there reboot into system. I seems for some reason the bootloader is not allowing the phone to charge. You need to get around it.

Happened on mine in the first day. I even thought like why I bought a pos Chinese device. After 30 mins charging, it's started booting by power on button as it's supposed to be. Weird thing.

My Xiaomi Mix won't turn back on
this happened to my xiaomi mix yesterday. I was using it during dinner. Suddenly the screen wouldn't come on, flashed a bit, then shut down. I was able to hard reset it once. After that, the phone just died. and won't come back on. What do I do?
Please note: the battery was almost full. Did not drop it or get water in it.

Battery will need to be unplugged overnight, in the morning plug it back in, it won't boot or charge at this stage, leave on charge for a few hours maybe upto 12 after that it will be fine.

No you need to disconnect it, that means removing the cover which is easy, just watch the teardown on YouTube

I think it's a charging issue, swap charger and cable.
Does pc recognise the phone

Have the same issue. During charging and watching youtube, it turned off. No signal since then.
Changed charger, tried PC... Also disconnected battery and charging for more than 24h.
Now have a new battery and USB board and no signal
Any idea how to get the data from it?
Thanks
