I woke up this morning with my tablet being off. I tried to turn it on but no dice. I thought it might be dead but when plugged in the red led didn't light. then I plug it into my PC it was detected as Qualcomm HS-USB Qdloader 9008. I remember from Evo 3d days that it meant it was a brick. One thing I always tried on old devices was pull the battery but this guy is sealed up tight. With the prospect of a brick on my hands I peeled the bottom half of the back cover open. I was able to unplug the battery without fully removing the back cover. To my surprise it booted right up!!! I thought I would share my experience.

Hello,
I have the HTC One (M7) from AT&T. The phone has never been rooted and I have not yet unlocked it bootloader. I have not done any of these modifications to it. I was simply using it when it turned off and then got really hot.
When I try to turn it on, the screen stays black even though it vibrates after 15 secs (like when it turns on). If I connect it to a wall charger the screen turns on with the battery icon and the red light blinking. I have drained the battery and tried the battery calibration trick (holding power and the vol + - buttons while using a bright light) and it has not worked.
When I plug it to my Windows PC it is not recognized except for today when it got recognized while I tried the battery calibration trick but the driver that was installed was something like this: Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. I read in another thread that a user went through the same thin and some of the comments simply recommended him to take it to a store or that his motherboard was fried.
Is my phone bricked? Since I am not yet sure about this. And if not, is there a way to bring it back?

unfortunately QHSUSB_DLOAD mode means, as you said, a defective motherboard. You'll have to send the phone for repair.
sorry.
Hello folks. thank you in advance.
I'm 99.9% sure my phone is done. I checked the forums and found similar issues - but nothing exactly like mine. after five day here is what happened, and my troubleshooting steps.
the issue started five days ago. my phone was plugged into my HTC wall charger, which was plugged into a power bar connected to the wall. I made dinner, ate, and came to get my phone.
the lights under the back and home buttons were lit up, but the screen was not. I pressed the unlock button
nothing happened.
I did it again
nothing.
seeing no other alternative I held down the power button until the lights flashed and the phone should have rebooted - instead, it shut off and never turned back on.
I pressed the power button. tried the volume down + power to access the bootloader for an FDR. but the phone still wouldn't power on.
I figured something was up with the battery. I plugged it in for a few minutes but the charging light never came on - it never even blinked.
so I charged it overnight.
the next day, the same thing.
no power, no charging no blinking.
I tried the wall charger, I tried my PC.
that was when I got a ray of hope - my laptop made the USB-connected jingle when I plugged the phone in. so I let if charge, but there was no light
this was when I turned to the forums.
I tried resetting the charging logic - charge for 10 min, unplug, hold down vol+ vol- and power for five minutes
five minutes and three very sore fingers later nothing happened. I tried the same thing holding the proximity sensor under a bright light (super blackout flashlight).
after this, I resigned myself to plugging the phone in for four days. it has been plugged into the wall charger since Tuesday. no red blink, not green light and still not powering on.
i'll also note that when the phone is plugged into a PC it show up in the device manager under the section "ports (com & LPT)" and is called "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM4)".
i have also tried to boot the phone manually the ADB but it just says device not connected.
thank you in advane!
From what I know, if a phone is called Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM4) (or anything with he first three words), then it has a hardbrick or is (sadly) dead... I can't help you, because I don't know how... I never had such a problem [emoji52]
Your phone can go in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode for 2 reasons:
Flashed an incompatible firmware ---> Recoverable
Hardware failure ----> Phone is dead (or will most likely need a new motherboard)
Since it went in this mode itself, then its #2.
I've got rooted phone, least update frome about 15/11, MIUI 8, everything worked fine. Today phone stopped, before I thought I had 40-30%, for sure not 0% and phone died. It's not charging with any charger, any wire (3 different wire, 3 different plugs or computers) Computer with in I rooted (so with drivers needed) not conecting also. No LED flashed.. It happened suddenly, with no changes before. I switch the phone and is no answere no led flash. Help. its bricked
My quastion is - Is any secret code to charge my battery?
just started, after 4 hours, so it's no solution
again, phone broke down complytly, no reaction next 3-4 hours (means no sign its working, no led whilst charging, no any sign its on, computer doesnt see a phone. I tried all of combinations of off-keys and +vol -vol like a recovery or fastboot. NOTHING. the phone has been bricked at all for me, than starterd....****in JUST. Charged on the same wire, charger like 10 minutes before, some bull**** at all
Can you check if any device shows up in Device Manager when plugging your phone to the computer? Like qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 or similar.
I recently changed the battery in my 9T, I turned on everything fine, charged it to 99%, downloaded an update, the first since it was new, when restarting the phone it did not start again, it stayed on a black screen I assume that This brick, when I connect it to the PC, the device manager recognizes it as "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008" it just doesn't let me flash it on my flash in that mode. Try this: Leave the power button pressed for two days, to force it to discharge, connect the charger, it shows the discharged battery icon, but after a moment it disappears and returns to the same, completely black screen as it is not turned on and the PC detects it the same in "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008" try that method that I read right here in a post recently but it did not work for me. So my only hope I assume is to pay for an online unbrick service, they could help me with a page or user that is trustworthy. Thanks
