CM9 My Optimus wont turn on

Hello Pleashe help!
I have installed cm9, and for the night plug it in the charger, and now it wont turn on! It's plugged to the charger but nothing is working! Please Help! I cant turn it on! SO many thanks to helpers! Please guys!
I'll be so glad if you help me!

Have you tried a battery pull and then turned it on again? It could be a BSOD.

had the same problem (sort of) yesterday without the powercable connected, it seemed like the battery was empty while it shouldn't be, i fixed it using power+ vol up but i guess a battery pull should work aswell
sent from my LG 2X using cm9

Well i have tried for 5-10 mins to fix it, plugging it on the charger, and pulling the battery, this morning, but i can't get anything. What can be that for?
Can i revert back to stock (nVflash), or even turn it on? MUCH much thanks to everyone!
I really want to get my phone working, If someone can help me, i can give him some money in PayPal!
P.S I'm in school now, and with another phone! When I go back home i'll try what you say again! I left it in charge (from pc) and hopefully, it's because battery has drained or something! Thank you for the replies! I look forward to reply's, about how to solve this. Thanks!

had same problem this morning (left phone in charger for night).... i just disconnected phone from charger, removed battery for 10 sec, put it back - and phone is on...
only problem is that battery level was showing 999% (unknown), and after ~10-20 minutes it was 1% all the time (worked with 1% 2+ hours).. now it is charging again.. everything seems ok.
**
If it wont turn on, just remove battery, and connect it to PC while holding volume up key (or down.)... it should boot "upgrading firmware" mode... after just use smartflash and restore to stock.

hm... happend second time, when phone was on "wall" charger..
when charging from PC - no problems... when from "wall" charger - always BSOD after few hours...
anyone else have similiar problems?

I had the same as in OP during first night while it was hanging off the wall charger. It hasn't happened since, but I enabled "keep screen awake during chargin". I beleive I read somewhere here it should help with that.

Same problem here overnight charge and the phone wash dead.
After a battery pull it was ok.
It 's a bugg.

Mine survived overnight charging just fine...
And it rocks (ICS i mean).

Solution for Me
Hey i got my optimus 2x just yesterday on Starhub Singapore, and similarly, i HAD the same problem until i followed some post above about removing the battery, plug in the computer/laptop with proprietary usb cables, WHILST HOLDING THE VOLUME UP AND POWER BUTTON TOGETHER. Hold for 10 seconds at least
Nothing happened. So i didnt get the flashing menu or mode on screen
Then i put unplugged the phone, put the battery back in, and tried again, suprisingly the LG Logo came up, but now it hung there.
Removing the battery...
EDIT: I removed the battery, now working good. Hopefully this dumb sH*t wont happen again. Beautiful phone. Hope this solved everything
If not, try doing a hardreset maybe? Hold power + Volume Down Key BUT ONLY IF YOUVE TRIED THE ABOVE METHOD A FEW TIMES. cause all your data will be gone POOF

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 Dead / Not powering on

I was in a conference call last night. At some point during the call, my phone froze. Touchscreen stopped working. So I waited for the cal to finish (some 30 mins) and after that I did a hard reboot reboot by pressing the power button and holding it down.
After like 5-8 seconds, phone switched off and never came back on. It justs didn't turn on. The screen doesn't even light up. No logo, no startup nothing - as if like there is no battery in the phone. The steps I tried:
Take out the battery, SIM Card, SD Card and try again after 2 mins.
Remove Battery and hold the power button down for a mins - for any internal power to drain, put battery back on and try
Try going to Download Mode
Try going to Recovery
Charging the phone - the screen doesn't light up, no activity, vibration,
Plug in the USB cable and hope for computer to detect it - no go.
I am on a business trip to US and completely dead in water without a phone. I dont want to spend money on a new phone and I haven't been able to locate any service station nearby. Doubt there is a culture like that in US about that.
I am not sure if the phone is bricked. Why will it get bricked, I was just using the phone - not flashing or something else. I also doubt any internal board got damaged as phone didn't fall down from anywhere, it was on bed all the time (connected to my bluetooth headset). Pls suggest me what I can do. I need some solution! Thanks !

Sorry to hear abt the phone going dead.
your phone is not bricked because even a bricked phone boots.Since the phone is not even booting, I assume that the motherboard of the phone has gone faulty.
There is nothing much that can be done but showing the phone to a technician. sorry but I can't see any solution.

Same issue
My phone died suddenly too while it was charging. Strangely my bluetooth was on too. So finally were you able to sort it out or did you go to a service centre?

N7000 Not power/boot/odin
I have rescued last week 2 dead mainboards that do nothing ,i mean really nothing ,no power,no boot ,no odin .
what ive done?
i pulled out the hole mainboard including the back camera and lay it for one hour on a central heater (nachtspeicher).
A handy technican says to me ,in the most cases its enough to reheat the power ICs or Emmc-chip on the board.
1.charging the battery seperatly with an external charger ,to be safe the battery is fully charged at 100%
2. Pulling out the mainboard ,take of the backcamera too.
3.lay board on a very hot central heater ,with power IC at the bottom,wait 3-4 coffees
4.assembly board back.
5.if youre ready with re assembling,stick in JIG
6.put back fully charged battery
7.Vol- + home + power button
8.flash fresh installation
thats pretty much it what ive do ,now i have 3+n7000 for 60 bugs :laugh:

Hi @bastelkick2.
I am about to attempt this over the weekend, and hopefully revive my dead N7000...
1) What sort of temp rating to you turn the central heater up too?? Medium or Full heat?
2) Wouldn't things go pop / bang, when it gets hot... such as the battery??
3) What's the IC Power?? (which way do you face the board) with the EMMc chip facing upright or at the bottom...??
Cheers, Lister

My Samsung note 1 powers on and displays the logo for a long time
I removed the battery to restart the phone and it refused to power on
How can i fix it

Hi @Jovan Afidra,
Hate to say it, but it's prolly dead like my one is.... and NO ONE know's why....?? I guess it's just age...??
I have a feeling its the EMMc chip thats somehow fried, even though it was supposedly deemed safe in more recent roms.... I've had to purchase another N7000 to get me back up and running again Im afraid...
Cheers, Lister

[Q] GT i9000's Power Key Flex has been broken, can't turn on

Hi all,
a few days ago I accidentaly dropped my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 to the sink full of water. Immediatelly I get it out and removed its battery. Afterward I removed the inner rear cover, and waited till it dried out (couple of hours), but during the reassembly the power key flex hes been broken. My first thought was that it won't be turned on again, but surprisingly after I connected the charger to the phone, it turned on. I was happy, but some days later I turned the phone off (removed the battery) and I cannot repoduce the turning-on manouver.
Now, when I plug in the charger it indicates that it charges, but I cannot power on the phone. The question is if I order a power key flex replecment part, or it went wrong, and cannot be helped. I've tried to short-circuit the rest of the power stuff on the motherboard, but no reaction. But it still responses to the charger.
The other question is can I turn it on to check if it is good, only the flex is needed (maybe some kind of Schmitt trigger or something else is needet to the turnin-on process in the short-circuiting). I don't want to spend money for it, if it is a brick.

there's apps in the playstore that you can remap the buttons... hmmm now how to turn it on?
EDIT: I just copied this from another forum., not even sure if it'll work on our i9000 but worth a try... Volume down, Home button and plugging in a charger or usb into a computer as if charging. Then press the volume down to reboot.

S3 mini pretty dead. Still charges without showing this on the display.

My daughters SIII mini has *possibly* been slow charging for a while but not sure. So disregard this remark unless it makes sense to you.
Today it wouldn't turn ON, so I let her charge it. There is NO indication on the phone that it charges, but my ampere-meter (random link to similar 'amperemeter') showed 0.25A chargingcurrent. Once this dropped to 0.00A I tried turning it on, but there is NO reaction. No vibration, no sound, no backgroundlight or any other life in the display. I tried recovery mode (volume-up+power+home buttons), but no reaction.
I tried the S3mini battery in my S4 and it starts my S4 just fine, showing full charge. I even put it on the charger, but 100% is 100% so I saw no sense in leaving it there for more than a few minutes.
Putting it back in the S3 didn't work, removing the SD and SIM card didn't work, leaving the battery out for an hour didn't work.
Should I go open it up? It's probably not the ON button as that plays (imho) no role in showing charging-level while off (charging is something it does seem to do, but does not show on the display).
I once read that charging is governed by the software in Android, is there some truth to this? And if so can you draw conclusions that there is still something working/running inside?
The reason for putting my question on here is that I read about 50 threads on the subject and 45 of them claim it "won't start" or "does nothing" but then turn out to do a lot more than ours.

Opened the phone up and found no apparent hardware issues. The ON button has a connection between middle and left solderpoint and MAKES a connection between middle and right solderpoint when pushing the button. Forgot to measure if it BREAKS the left and middle when pushing the button.
It does NOT show up as a drive on my computer but I do hear sounds from my computer when pushing the ON button on the S3mini (edit: correction, I hear sound when plugging the USB cable in or when removing it, NOT when actuating any buttons on the phone). So there is still something happening inside.

OP3T dead - not turning on and not charging

Hi guys, I have a huge problem.
Currently I'm on vacation in Croatia, where it's around 38-40 C every day. One day I had to log into an unsecured wi-fi. I know, i shouldn't have done that but it was urgent. Well, the same night (while charging) my phone turned off itself and I had to turn it back on on the next day. It worked the whole day until I opened the camera. Suddenly the phone went off and I wasn't able to turn it on. At first I thought the battery has drained so I plugged it into the original OP charger (dash). It gets warm while charging, but the LED is not turning on. After an hour of charging I still can't turn the phone on. Not even after a charging over night. There's also no vibration after holding the power button, neither holding the power-button for 20 (or more) seconds . I can't even get into recovery mode by holding volume-down and power.
I'm on original Resurrection Rom.
Is there anything else I could try? Could it be that some hardware is damaged (overheated)?
Since I'm on vacation there's currently no way for me to do any kind of unbricking until I find some phone-repair service.

I'm not a pro, but Im pretty sure the problem occur on the hardware side since the phone is not taking the charge and no vibration
I once had an Android phone (not 3t), the same thing occured, the phone I had had some hardware damage near the battery so I experienced the same problems you listed, ended up getting a new phone

Overheating is probably not the issue, at least not the 40C air temps you mentioned. These devices can probably something like 60C (internal temp at CPU or battery) before seeing any damage. Lot of folks live where it's just as hot as where you are, if not hotter. So I have to think the device is designed to work under such conditions.
Try holding the power button longer (a minute or more). I don't know about this device. But on my old HTC M8, there were instances where the phone powered off by itself. And the power button needed to be held over a minute, to make it boot. Although no charge LED is concerning.

Mine did the same a few days ago, was tethering and the phone just shut off. Buttons didn't work, no vibration, no charge LED, no anything. Thought it died but after plugging it into a PC it was detected as QHSUSB_BULK (hardbrick).
But it turned on normally after a minute lol.

Hallo. Mine also crashed. I was in the sunset playing game and taking pictures. Then phone suddenly got so warm and lagged, It turned off itself. No reaction. I connected into charger and then turned on hopefully. I think you must take care, because it has metal body and easy heating, and when heating it's lagging and not works good
My opinion is that it's overheat problem

You will see Qualcomm download mode message (QHSUSB_BULK) whenever the device is powered off. It needs to be powered on, at least to bootloader (or recovery or OS) for the PC to connect in any other way.

Update
After 3 days, it finally turns on and charges as expected. Don't know if it has to do anything with it, but i let it in the charger for 1 day.
but now another problem occured.
every time I press the homebutton the phone crashes and goes off. this only happenes if the fingerprintscanner is not requested.
i.e. unlocking phone with fingerprint, does not crash, but... pressimg homebutton to go back to home screen crashes.
