It was in a moment of anger no judging please
1) The screen is obviously destroyed and wont even turn on.
2) My computer doesnt recognize the phone.
3) If its plugged the phone blinks its notification light for like 5 minutes
4) if its unplugged it blinks only when I hold the power button. It also blinks once when I unplug it.
5) I dissamble the motherboard and it doesnt seem to be harmed.
The question is, do you think the phone is dead or should I replace the screen, all repair shops ask me the PIN number to give me a diagnostic, which is reasonable but I dont want to give on my privacy to fix a phone.
Thoughts?
Thanks a lot for reading!

Check the battery flex. Maybe is unplugged. If you don't want to give the pin you should try to change the screen by yourself.

Why you try to connect to PC? For saving your files?
Maybe u need to change screen first and then if there is any problem you will see it. İ think your problem should be in type c port

Just wondering if anyone can help me out here..
My HTC is not turning on at all. I was using it fine, nothing was over heating and it was just in my pocket. I went to check on my phone and it was just off. Is there anything I can do, or possibly take it in for warranty. I have never owned a HTC so I don't know where to go for support. I am from Sydney Australia. Any help would be appreciated. I have left it on charge for 30 minutes - And nothing yet, not turning on

Although when I hold the power down when plugged into my PC it makes the unplug sound and while still holding the power button long enough it has the plugged in sound. But nothing shows up on PC
Not sounding good at all. Hopefully someone else chimes in on this matter and has other ideas. Good luck.

Tried everything.. I bought this phone from Gumtree Australia a few months ago and that person got it from the Optus store via Contract I believe. But I don't have the Receipt however, I have the box and accessories and warranty stickers that come inside the box. Would I have to go through Optus store or is there a HTC One centre like they have Apple and Samsung centres/stores..
This question is probably only for Australian users
I heard of this before... Try plugging it into your computer and leave it for an hour. Then... (While still plugged in) hold it under a bright light and hold power + vol down, for a few minutes. I think this problem occurs because CWM allows the voltage to get too low for the phone to start. Good luck man

The light has to be facing the phone. You can see the two sensors on the top left on the front, point the light there.
I fix mine by let it charge on wall plug for 4 days straight until red LED started to ON back..lets it charge for another 1/2 hr n press the power button to ON the device..weird..4 days just to gain back some juice due to battery completely die..
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Well my HTC One's power button is broken. (I dropped it and it got stuck) Is there a way to turn on the phone without using the power button. I'm talking about when the phone is completely turned off. I've tried connecting it to the charger and the led comes on, but the phone doesn't turn on. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
EDIT: I know the phone works, I used it, but I was stupid enough to let the battery die.
Anyone?

Well thanks for trying. This really sucks.
Best I can suggest is use a toothpick and gently try prodding around the power button to see if you can somehow get it to at least turn on. Once it's on there are apps you can install to turn off and on the phone.. Sorry. If you have the receipt or warranty, best to get the phone replaced.. Good luck man

If ur booted into a ROM, then obviously ur device ain't bricked. If u have the ADB drivers installed properly, the phone's serial number should show.
FYI, never post ur Serial No. anywhere. Its sensitive device information

No the phone does not do anything, no charging light and does not turn on, so it does not go to recovery.
But maybe the phone does get connected trough usb and if i see some serial number that give's me hope that it's not fully bricked.
Or am i completely wrong?

Look, ADB will work only in a fully booted ROM or in CWM/TWRP recovery. Currently, ur phone isn't even turning on. There are many people with this issue. There is no real "fix" as such. Try putting your proximity sensor in a strong source of light for a while. If it doesn't turn on, then HTC will have 2 replace the motherboard, which is really expensive
Try holding POWER + VOLDOWN (phone under a bright light,) after about 5 seconds, buttons should start blinking, and after 20 to 30 seconds, phone should reboot.
you may need to try 2 or 3 times, to get it to work.

Hi everyone!!
Today, I woke up, and noticed that my Moto G 2nd Gen is died.
Honestly.. i don't understood what happened exactly. My phone was absolutely clean, no rom, no hacks, no strange apps, NOTHING!
Absolutely genuine and with just a few (famous) apps, like Tapatalk, Skype, Facebook etc..
Someone maybe knows what problem is it? Hope to receive help..
THANK YOU.
If it was completely clean I would send it back to Motorola for repair. It is the safest and best solution

Actually I can't do it. At the end of March I'll moving to another country.. so I'd like to try any solution to try to fix it now.

You could try another cord and/or charger if you have any laying about. That would be on the assumption that it ran down overnight. BTW, if it is completely dead, it may take a little before you get any indication of charging.
have seen it happen several times.
This fixes most of the time
In the unlikely event that your device becomes unresponsive, frozen, blank or black screen, or will not respond to the power button, you can perform a force restart or reboot on the device by following the steps below.
Press and hold the Power button for 7 - 10 seconds, the device will restart and go through the boot-up sequence.
Notes:
The forced restart or reboot will not delete any Data on your phone.
If completing the 7-10 second Reset does not recover normal functionality of the device, then press and hold the Power Button for a full 120 seconds while connected to a charger.

I recently installed project spaghet x with evolution x 2.3 gsi with kraken kernel . It worked perfectly and then I came across a new recovery for j7 prime called skyhawks recovery. I wanted to try it out and installed it. It still booted and so I left it like that and charged it overnight and this morning I see that my phone no longer boots. Cant get into download mode or the recovery either. Nothing happens when i hold power button or any button combination Please help me fix it. any help is really appreciated.
EDIT: Thankyou for all the support but, I nearly went crazy because of my phone but I finally figured it out by useing a homemade usb jig to get it into download mode.
still charging when u connect charger? or no response on screen at all?
if no response, congratulation, your phone is dead. and you can sell it to me if you want.
but if you not believe what i say, you can wait more longer until other member give you the answer.
but if,, the led light still there and the screen showing the battery level when you put on the charger, so your phone still can survive.
