My Galaxy s2 Is having really annoying problems!
First off it rotates the screen even screen rotation is off.
Secondly, It keeps telling me i am connected Via USB Device to a computer when i'm not.
Then it keeps taking me off the screens im wanting to view.
Also It just keeps opening desk clock.
Then when i do plug it into my computer, It opens voice talk, then my computer also tells me that it isn't a recgonised device.
I formatted my phone this morning, it was good for abour 5-6 hours then it begun playing up like this.
I turn the phone off, take out the battery and let it sit for a bit, Then as soon as i put the battery back in the phone turns it self on without me pressing anything...
Heres some pics I managed to get of whats happening after fighting with my phone xD
This one shows the desk clock that keeps coming up.

If anyone can help it will be much appreciated.
So it's 1:19 AM and probably way to late to bother anyone with these questions (in my timezone),
But my Phone (a Sony Xperia T) randonly died. I was downloading an apk file on my computer so that I could later install it on my phone. Meanwhile I kept my phone plugged into my laptop too charge while I was working (last time I looked it was on 91%). So when the application finished downloading, I grab my phone but suddenly it's off... I have tried rebooting, vol up vol down while pressing power and all those combinations, but nothing worked. So desperately I come to phone heaven for help. What can I do? I want to let it checked at the phone shop next door tomorrow, but if there is a free solution I want to hear that first...
Is there any phone genius here that could help me out?
BTW The screen is just black and responds to nothing what I do. It also doesn't respond to the charger. WTF is going on!?!
So I have a nexus 6 I bought last year during black friday deals and I recently cracked my screen a few weeks ago. Today I accidentally dropped my phone on the carpet and at first it powered on no problem. Then, when I went to charge the phone, it didn't power on at all. It started to act all glitchy. Like if I messed around with the power and volume buttons, the flashlight would turn on. When plugging the phone into my pc, nothing shows up in the NExus 6 root folder. Its literally empty, no folders or anything. So I went on Android Device Manager to see if I can at least get it to locate the phone or ring and both worked.
Before I give up on this phone, I want to ask if theres a possible way to recover any files or contacts I have stored on there?
With ADM working, your phone is working. You can adb into it, second display, get the screen fixed, lots of options.

ADB is using android studio, right? How can I access files from there?
How would I get the second display to work? Getting the screen replaced on the NExus 6 is going to cost as much as I paid for the phone itself which isn't ideal for me. I could do it myself, but replacing the screen on the nexus 6 is nearly impossible.
*Hey guys!
So I'm switching over to using a GT-I9000 for a few weeks, while my 1+3T arrives. To ease my pain, I formatted this phone (after God knows how long it's not been used), and tried flashing a few ROMs.
While doing so, I noticed something really strange: When I plug the phone in to charge (or to my PC for that matter), the screen thinks I'm constantly holding one of my fingers on the screen, thus making it unresponsive to touch while plugged in. As soon as I disconnect the phone, the screen starts working fine again.
Any ideas how to solve this problem?*
Okay, nevermind, found out the cause, please delete the thread.
My wife Nokia 7 Plus was found in download mode (white screen with Android One logo) and is stuck in this mode. I've never done any unlock bootloader or root or anything on it (thus I did on other phones so I'm not totally stranger to it) and I'm 100% sure she didn't tried anything strange either. The phone is completely stock and probably with the last update as it went back new from repair a few months ago (for screen brightness issue) and I did update everything possible before she used it again.
The phone start automatically and immediately I see the white screen with AndroidOne logo and after a few ms it refresh and it's the same screen with the back text "Download mode" at the top.
I've tried to force shutdown and reboot by long pressing power. I cannot keep it shutdown, it goes back to Download Mode screen.
I've tried to restart start with power + vol up or power + vol down, power + vol up + vol down. Same.
I've tried to let it die on battery, charge it, and here it's a black screen with the large battery logo and a white text at the top saying: Download mode. After a few minute I try to boot and it's back to the white screen.
What can I tried next before I send it back for repair and it will be probably wiped again...
Side story, I've almost force her to switch from iPhone to Android because of price of the devices, and so far she is not converted at all with all the trouble we got with this Nokia.
As last before send to service try wipe in recovery, if not boot to recovery via buttons, try if your download mode is recognised by fastboot and reboot to recovery using: fastboot reboot AND IMMEDIATELY HOLD BUTTONS POWER and VOLUP until show "green android icon with no command

Thanks for your help, unfortunately none of this work. I've tried adb device and nothing is seen, fastboot reboot neither. I'll send it to repair now.
Suffering the same problem.

I'm having the same problem. Exactly what you said. I didn't root my device or even attempt to do anything. I bought Nokia because they were purely stock and delivered some quality mobile phones. I've got only this phone as my daily driver. So tell me if you have got the issue fixed and how much did it cost and how long it took. It's been stuck with that 'android one' logo and a small message that reads 'Download mode' on top. I've tried everything. And what I'm worried about is, my phone's out of warranty and I'm a student. I hope you got it fixed for some reasonable cost. Please reply to me ASAP.
My wife's phone also has had this exact same problem.
I have tried all the tricks mentioned above including ADB mode (it could not find the phone).
The phone is supposed to be under warranty. So I took it back to the place of purchase.
However, the phone has a tiny crack in the corner of the screen which my wife and I were not aware of. So Nokia have indicated that unless I get the crack fixed, the warranty is voided and they will not fix the boot problem.
Because the broken crack is not covered by warranty, Nokia want $270 for a new screen before they will look at the software problem caused by the pie update.
I took it to a third party repair shop to see if there is a cheaper option. They cannot fix it either.
So the 5 month old Nokia phone is now useless.
But if anyone can comes across a solution for this, can they please post it here.
Thanks.
Same here. I told the guy on the phone about the crack. But he told me it should not be a problem. Now I got an email that I needed to pay 185 euro's to repair the screen.
Because of their FW-update, my phone became unuseful.
When I get it back (not repaired) I will try a OST on it.
I solved my issue via this procedure:

I solved it via drivers: https://github.com/StollD/nokia-driver-installer/raw/master/out/Phone_Nokia_USB_Driver_v1.4.0.exe
WTF Finally I fix it!!!

My Nokia 7 Plus got stuck in download mode after accidently pressing all buttons simu
Yes I know that sounds like a weird title and maybe you are wondering why did I do that? notice the word accidently.
I was just trying to fly my newly bought drone x pro for the first time and the controller has a little pull out extendable cradle to hold the phone in
if you want to view what the FPV camera is viewing while in flight and because of the bad design with all buttons on the same side of the Nokia 7 plus, unbeknownst to me all 3 buttons were being pressed at the same time and before I knew it my phone was shutting down and rebooting to this ridiculous download mode and the rest is history!
So I just thought I would mention this to anyone who happened to or happens to land in the same situation as me to be aware that you should probably put a little bit of sponge taped to the side of your phone over the volume buttons to possibly prevent it from being pressed simultaneously when flying your fpv drone.
If all else fails you could always connect the drone to your phone and then just put your phone in your pocket and fly blind by simply walking with the drone or rather running since they are pretty nippy. I am a bit bummed as this would have been a very convenient way of checking how full my guttering is of leaves without having to climb a ladder every time to check!?
Anyway I also used the fix here: https://www.techmesto.com/possible-fix-nokia-smartphone-stuck-on-download-mode-after-ota-update/
after downloading the nokia phone drivers from github.
If you are on windows 10 pro you may get a screen protector warning not to proceed further?
Ignore it and continue installing the drivers!
So far I got the Nokia Logo back and then it just hung there for several minutes without being recognised by the pc.
So I simply disconnected the phone from the pc and suddenly got the familiar nokia tone start up but then black screen again.
I realised it had been on the download mode so long it had completely drained the battery so now I am charging it.
Fingers crossed when I power up again I will at least have my phone back, sadly minus the data. (I will of course at least have all my google notes and contacts etc backed up to google servers at least they are useful for something!!)
I can't recall the last time I used it but I am pretty sure I had the SD card set as the main download so hopefully fingers crossed that data should have remained untouched, not sure how Android sets this up anymore?
Long time since gingerbread when you could still install and run apps as a completely separate partition.
All became a bit confusing after that so rooting became something I did hesitantly and as a definite last resort!
Anyway I am rambling on. If I find the fix works I will let you know.
Thanks for reading and thanks in advance if the fix works !!:good::good:

So it worked, I have my phone back! Thank you so much for this solution!
Sadly my SD card was wiped too!!!!! super pissed off about this, many photos and notes and other files that I will never get back unless if I recall I may have made a manual backup of at least some of the earlier stuff I put on here a few months back on my pc?
Nokia will be hearing from me for sure!!!!! I want a 50% refund for messing with my life and my time. How can they send an update that essentially breaks a phone for a bit!???!!!!!!
