Was using Instagram app tonight and the phone locked up. Held down the power button and it shut off but now won't start back up. Not rooted, just stock phone... Any ideas? I've tried holding down multiple combinations of buttons, plugged it into the charger, and my computer... Nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I was finally running Odin correctly and set my phone down and the battery dislodged. I went to put the battery back in and I can't even get the phone to turn on now.
Any help would be appreciated.
What happens when you plug the phone in to the power outlet. ..

Nothing. Just a black screen. Still just a black screen if I hold power and both volume buttons to try and enter recovery. Same with holding both volume buttons and trying to enter download mode.
I don't know much about these phones like some people here but my phone was bricked and i used the jig method it took me the download mode

Yep. I think a USB Jig is your best bet right now.
When I shut down my phone, the screen will go black and it will vibrate like normal. Last I checked the vibrate was to confirm that it was completely shut off. Instead, the four touch sensitive buttons will light up and stay lit until I turn the phone back on or, of course, pull the battery. This is also keeping me from entering download mode. A few days ago the phone was shutting down correctly and I have been able to enter download mode, but now the problem is going on again. I'm on official 2.2 Froyo updated through kies mini. My phone is rooted, but this problem occurred before I rooted.

Sounds like a warranty replacement.
I've had it for over a year. I wonder why it's just now doing this.

I think I have come to a conclusion on why it doesn't seem to shut down completely and would need someone with a captivate that has all fully functional buttons. I believe that since my power button sticks, when the phone vibrates to confirm a shutdown, the capacitive touch button lights will not shut off until the power button is released. So if someone wouldn't mind shutting their phone off while holding the power button and tell me if you can make the lights come on after the vibrate while holding power button? Thanks in advance.

So my htc one running cm10.1 died and now wont charge or boot. ive left it charging for a while and nothing no led or splash screen when i hold the power button, also the charger doesnt get hot so i assume no current is passing thru it to the phone, ive tried other chargers and cables and nothing also tried plugging it in nothing works. I dont have insurance on it so thats not much of a option. any other suggestions im having a similar issue to whats in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257448
Device htc one sprint Recovery twrp kernel stock cm10.1 running cm10.1 nightly 6/7/13, also i noticed that earlier the phone didnt charge when i powered it off need help guys please.
anyone know anything else to try?
Weird, I would let it sit for a few hours to make sure the battery is completely dead. I bootlooped mine a while ago and even holding down power wouldn't make it reboot. After letting it sit, try a different charger see if the LED light starts blinking when you plug it in. It should stop after a few min turn solid, I would wait at least 10+ min then boot the phone into bootloader to hit recovery to restore a nandroid.
Try holding down power and.volume down at the same time under a bright light..I'm not kidding

it's power volume up to reboot, you've probably already tried
Had a problem with no charging after rooting, though I think it had more to do with my car charger. Contacted HTC and they suggested holding volume and power buttons simultaneously for two minutes to re-calibrate the battery. My phone is charging again and no more issues since I tried that. Worth a try.

The bright light thing worked for me. I was in a similar situation after my phone shut down during an OTG transfer. I tried everything and nothing worked. I figured I had nothing to lose, so I held it directly over a 100 watt light bulb and it booted right up.

I've tried with no luck, and while were at it just because you can get it to come back on with such a peculiar method we must ask ourselves how many times we would be ok with doing that to bring our phone back to life? there must be an answer to all of this somewhere but its kind of hard to pull any logs off and device that is 100% bricked.
OK so my HTC one won't turn on won't charge led doesn't even glow ..the problem started when I downloaded kaspersky i doubt it is their fault and I couldn't prove it was their app but now my phone doesn't even start or charge I'm so worried and I have held the power button for like 5 minutes !!!! ..it started with qpps crashing randomly like the messenger the text messenger app the Google play music then it sort of soft reset rebooted and said android is upgrading I uninstalled kaspersky and then tried to clear my phones cache with 1 tap cleaner I think but while it was scanning it froze again literally the problem started like 3 hours ago..and well it froze I tried to hold the power button to power off and it didn't for a long time then it finally did and I couldn't get it back on .....help!!!! Any ideas ????

I actually just did a warranty exchange due to a HTC one that would not charge. Do verify there is nothing in the USB port. Even small lint can keep charger from making contact. With charger connected hold power button for up to a minute see if light changes then.
With phone off, fully charge, then see if you can boot into bootloader while holding volume down when powering on. Do this with no cable attached and continue to hold volume down until hboot. Once in hboot, volume down to factory reset and click power to select. If you dont see factory reset you may be in fastboot mode, if so volume down to bootloader and power to select, then factory reset This will erase your phone. If software is to blame for the issues this will fix it.
Lol...from my observation..this problem getting bigger..i also just had the same problm..my case battery were drain completely..i try to charge for 2 days straight..still no led light...its going to htc center soon..
Mine is only 1 month and 10 days old!!

well...this kinda ruined my night yesterday...I went to a concert yesterday around 8 and my phone had 70% and I was checking facebook or something like that and without no notification or warning it froze and turned off on me. I figured it was a normal freeze..and I attempted to turn it back on and nothing happened. Went to my car to try to charge it and nothing. Not even a charging light. A day has passed after the concert was over (could not take pictures, thanks htc..) and now the "dead battery symbol" comes up and the orange light keeps BLINKING..to my understanding it means that it is not charging? What could it be..anybody could help me out .maybe a soft reset? no charging it for a couple of minutes?
Anything would help. Thanks..:crying:
Possibly try holding the phone under a light and press the power button?

Mine froze up on me last week during a power cycle. I had to hold the power button about 2 mins (if not longer) before it finally responded and rebooted. I was getting my coat to take it back to the store, holding the power button the entire time, then bang, the white screen with the HTC logo finally appeared.
Not a good feeling ?

Also try holding power and both volume buttons.
I had a random freeze up and that was the only thing that worked...could have been a fluke but it's worth a shot.

+1 for that method. I had a freeze up and that's what I did to get out of it and reboot.

You should be able to hard reset (not factory reset) with just power and volume up, hold for 15 secs. That's how I got out of a broken recovery screen.

Trust me I tried every combination of buttons I could think of lol.
I actually thought it bricked, took me like 5 minutes before it finally booted to bootloader.
