My Nexus 6 won't turn on - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My nexus 6 doesn't turn on. This has never happened, but the green LED suddenly turned on when I plug in my phone. When I press the power button, nothing happens. When I hold the power button, the led goes away and doesn't turn on. Any suggestions?

Can you get to the bootloader? Volume down+power.

Did you try the power buttons when the charging cable is connected and device is charging?

3 finger salute? Plug it into your computer?

If the battery is on its last legs, and fully drained, it can exhibit this behavior.
Plug the phone into a low power port like a computer usb port but not the fast charger that came with the phone. Leave it plugged in for 1-2 hours. Unplug the cable then plug it back on again. If the battery charge animation displays, then you are good to plug it into a regular fast charger.
There are times that you need to leave it plugged in for an hour, then disconnect the cable, long press the power button and it might reboot. In that case, charge it fully before attempting to use it.

If the LED is green whilst connected to the wall charger, try to turn it on again.
Try the power and volume again.
If you ring the phone from another phone does it respond or is it unavailable
1 put wall charger
2 presset power + vol up
3 vibrate one time.. then 3 times.. led RED. if i dont press anything became green. if i press power on remain green.

The phone boot... the touch work... but the screen is black..
Sounds like a hardware issue. Did you drop or damage the phone just before that happened...
No drop.. no water.. just like i said... after finished a phone call,the display was black and never turned on..
Take it back to the shop. If you have not modified it and it "Just Happened" they will have to replace it.

[Q] HTC One won't turn on

Hi my HTC one which has Android Revolution 13 installed on it recently ran out of battery and now it won't turn back on. I have tried wall charging and usb charging with 4 different chargers and wires, but the phone still refuses to turn on. There are no orange, green, or red lights on the phone that I can see however when I plug it into my computer the computer plays the sound that something was connected and then plays the sound that it was disconnected. I have also tried every combination of trying to turn the phone on from just the power button, power button and volume down, power button volume up, power button and both volume buttons from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. The phone absolutely just feels dead and the only response I get is from when it is hooked up to the computer and it only makes sounds from the pc the phone is still dead even when connected. HTC Sync does not recognize the phone either. Any ideas?

I have tried searching for it but there are not alot of solutions mostly just the same problem. Most of the solutions are just the same hold the power button with the volume buttons.
What comes up in Device Manager when you plug into your PC? If you see QHUSB_DLOAD, you have a brick.
It's not unheard of for a phone to brick if you let the battery go completely dead. The phone is supposed to shut off before then, but if you force the issue, that can kill the battery.
You should be able to get a warranty return.

Do the Home and Back buttons blink when you hold the power button down? Also, when doing the bright light trick, make sure you're not blocking the ambient light sensor (two holes in upper left corner) with your finger.

Yes they blink, i tried to tryed to turn it off and to shine with a flashlight directly into the light sensor. How does that trick actually work? Should i just let it blink orange the whole night?

Maybe let it charge overnight. My phone has done that occasionally when I've run it all the way down, but a hard reset always brought it back.
The "trick" is really an interlock to prevent you from restarting your phone in your pocket or a purse. If something presses against the power button but it's dark, the phone won't respond.

so it was charging all night, in the morning orange LED was still blinking, phone still wont power one. What does a blinking orange LED mean? Low Battery or charging? Any ideas?

It usually means a low battery. It sounds as if yours isn't taking a charge. Keep trying to power it on, but if it won't go, there may be a hardware fault. It does happen.

Power the One off. Charge for 10 minutes using the wall charger. Then simultaneously press the volume up - volume down - and power button for 2 minutes. Then power the phone up normally. Battery should theoretically be reset.

If you run the battery completely down it will charge very slow for a period of time until it get a certain amount of charge. Hence the orange blicking light. its taking a charge, albeit very slowly.. just leave it plugged in to the wall charger. it may take quite a while. but try resetting the battery first

HTC Vivid Not Turning on. When plugged in shows Battery 100%.

I have an old HTC Vivid. It has been working fine since about last week, when it only charged if I held the charger a certain way. I gave up on charging it with the charger and used a battery charger to charge it. That worked well until this morning. Now pressing the power button does nothing. Plugging it in with the HTC Charger turns the screen on to show 100% charged and the charge light turns green. Pressing the power button makes both the screen and the LED turn off. I've tried:
Power + Vol. Up
Power + Vol. Down
Power + Vol. Up + Vol. Down
Power (30 Sec)
Nothing works.
What do you mean "battery charger". The cradle that you put the battery into and then plug into the wall?
When you plug your phone into the computer do you hear the ping it usually makes when something is plugged in?

Yes, a battery "cradle". I used to hear the ping it makes when you plug it in immediately followed by the ping it makes when something is plugged out. The charger port smells like it's been burnt out.

Question Deadboot problem with battery icon

Poco M3 Pro 5g
Stock rom
Locked bootloader
It was powered off for some time because I had to replace broken display
Now when I try to boot a battery icon appears and then it turns off. Same thing happen when I plug in the charger
I repair smartphones professionally so I am sure no hardware damage during the repair

I went through it. try holding the power button, connect the cable and only release after the battery shows 1%. you can try holding the power and volume + or power and volume - buttons too instead of Power button only, in the same way. alternatively, you can leave it on the charger for hours and it might turn on. Make sure you are using the supplied xiaomi charger
If I plug the cable or I plug and hold the power button the phone just tries to boot continuously showing the battery icon and then turning off and repeat, nothing really happens
Is that what is supposed to happen?

Yes, It happens. Luckily the phone will reach 1% and charge normally, keep trying
You actually saved me, it worked in the end, after some loops it booted alone, all I had to do was just let it sit there, didn't even have to keep power button all the time, once it started the loop I just left it there and when I came back it was booted.
