Phone doesn't work for unknown reasons. - ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers

i need help, a few days ago my phone freezes, shuts down, and wont back up again.
i tried all button combinations and nothing seems to work at all,pressing volume up + down and power button only result on a red light flash once
This isn't the first time my phone freeze, last month i exprience a hard crash and a bootloop, but i flashed it through edl mode and it works again.
this time it wont even boot up at all,i hit a dead end.
i tried to use an edl cable but it still didnt work, the only way to access the edl mode is to short the test point inside the phone.
that method works, i manage to get in edl mode, reflash everything, but the phone still wont boot up.
also all the hardware is fine, i checked everything including the ufs and it works just fine.
but for some reason it wont charge at all on both the side, and the bottom port.
if i leave it for a while and then charge it, i get a blinkin red light for a while and then it stops flashing again.
if anyone can provide help i would be very thankfull
summary : i successfully flash the phone, but it wont boot up, and also wont charge for some reason. it still getting some current going in, but not much.

Help- reboot loop (power button not stuck)

Hi,
I am stuck on an infinite booting loop. I had the rom (see sig) installed for about 3 months and all worked fine. In the last week, I noticed it kept resetting itself often such as after calls).
I did not change the rom in any way, or add any mods. Randomly today it just switched off.
I can't boot to download mode. I can get to recovery (for a matter of seconds) and was quick enough to use Odin to flash it back to stock.
I've unscrewed the back, and jiggled the power button and that isn't a problem
But it looks as if it's turning itself on- as soon as I put the battery in, it turns on
It has 1 month of warranty remaining- but I will have to remove any trace of roms etc. (My idea on doing this is to remove the powerboard plug that connects to the power button while it's rebooting. Then I can use the phone via my PC to remove any trace of roms?)
Please help- what can I do?

Maybe it's a dumb idea (i don't flash kernels/rom's that long) but i had a similar problem and it was because of the kernel, not the rom so i reflashed the rom and after that i flashed another kernel and it worked, you could try that?

Bricked Nexus 6 (Not your typical thread)

So first things first:
I am not a noob, I have been flashing phones for years
The phone has an UNLOCKED bootloader
I know what a bootloader/recovery are etc
So last night I upgraded my phone to 6.0.1. I then decided to root it and get a kernel on for color control. So I download one of the new kernels (Elementalx) for 6.0.1 and the systemless root that he recommended in his post. I flash both files and boot the phone, the phone bootloops twice after the password to boot screen and then it works fine. I install a few things adjust a few things (nothing pertaining to root) and then before I jump into the shower I reboot it. I look at it after a few minutes and it is sitting at the google screen with the padlock, no worries it has happened before so I reboot it only to be met with this same screen. Over and over it just halts here. I do the button trick to get into the bootloader, no dice. No button combination can get me past this screen.
I then go over to my PC and try it out and see if I am getting a Q_BULK issue (I had it happen to my Galaxy Nexus before) and the PC doesn't even acknowledge it, so now I am getting a little worried. I cannot power off the device normally, it just reboots back to here. I can manage a trick with the power cable and some quick button presses to enter the "charging" mode and from there it appears to shut down. Upon boot though it comes right back to this halt. :-/
So, does anyone have ANY experience with this before I contact Motorola? I really don't want to because I have frame swapped and don't look kindly on the process of undoing it for a replacement, but if it must be then it must be. Below is a TLR
Phone boots to Google/padlock screen
CANNOT access the bootloader/recovery through normal means
PC does not recognize it (I did prior in both fastboot and recovery so the drivers are all installed)
the phone does NOT appear to be in Q_BULK
the phone will not shut down, it just boots back to here
It "was" running ElementalX and the systemless root (both are the newest) for 6.0.1
-Current status, sitting on this screen waiting to die... but it has an almost full charge
OK, first off... YOU ARE A NEWBIE.
Turn off the phone and boot to bootloader and use that to load your custom recovery and restore your working backup.
Failing that, fastboot flash the stock image from bootloader mode.
What are you hoping to accomplish by draining your battery completely, this can only make matters worse.
@scryan you are a funny man?
you didnt say anything about trying to get into recovery.. i assume you tried getting unto your recovery?
Hold power button, up and down button all at the same time. If you are on stock recovery wipe user data and cache. See if you can boot into the bootloader afterwards. That's unusual you cannot get into stock or custom (if you have it) recovery.
So you're main problem here is that you can't get into your bootloader or recovery right now? Hmm..... that can't be good. My best guess would be to keep trying to get it into your bootloader, just keep on holding volume down and power for a long time, hopefully if you can get into either bootloader or recovery you can fastboot flash a clean stock image, or restore a nandroid backup (assuming you have one) with TWRP. My best guess though.
Briefly, your device powers on, so there's sign of life. It is either your cable, pc' usb port or the usb socket of the phone is at fault. Did you try with another usb cable at another usb port in the pc ?
Let the phone power down completely. And when it dies, connect it to a charger while briefly holding the vol down button to get into the bootloader. It might take a while since the phone doesn't have any juice but this trick might just work.
If already no warranty, so dissasembly the deive, re-attack your battery

I need help lol after flashing in odin

Hi all, this is sadly my first thread in xda, sadly because two things: for being a help-ask thread and because the reason im posting it:
So i decided to flash the new ASIG firmware to my S10, and I don't know what went wrong because odin flashed all right. when i rebooted my device did the key combo to get into recovery mode but it didn't work. Can't pass from the first boot screen because it keeps rebooting
some info to feed your sugestions:
-i was rooted and running a custom rom (August securitypatch on BeyondRom)
-patched AP file in magisk
-ianmacd TWRP
I have tried to get it into download mode, recovery mode, normal OS, magisk boot.... nothing works it keeps rebooting. I remember the battery was like 60~70 % and have been like 7 hours and keeps rebooting.
Also i have tried to get it to boot in download mode waiting till screen goes black pressing voldown and bixby and catching the right moment to plug the cable in it and stops rebooting but doesn't boot either. If i press power button starts again rebooting and the same happen if i disconnect-reconnect or free-press any of the button combo even for one second...
so i have been tweaking my devices like 3 years and this is the first time i think i screwed up one, i always tought it was not possible (hope don't) but this time i think i made it
Do I? there is no fix?
i'm waiting to the phone gets fully discharged to see if powered off can i get it to boot into download mode and fla**** again
is there another way to get it to go into download mode? like old phones with the usb jig
it is a way to turn it off??
do you know what could be the reason to get in this state?
sorry for too much questions but i had a s7 edge before and i messed with it a lot, one day deactivated oem unlock, flashed wrong custom roms and broke it (software way) a lot of times and i always was able to get into download mode and fix it but this time i can't get it to work
so please help me and thanks for read and try to help (if anybody) lol r.r :crying::crying::crying:
FIXED
i'm happy to have been right, its hard to hard brick a device hehehe just after some minutes after (panic atack) post battery went out of energy pressed key combo comected cable to pc and booted un DM im sorprised because did not lost a byte of data
When the S9-S10 Starts bootlooping and won't go to DWNLD mode or Recovery, Just hold Power + Vol DWN + BIX for 5 seconds, release, repeat for ten seconds, release, Repeat,
After that the "upload mode" should appear. and you can just hold Power+Volume Down until the phone reboots. This time the keys will finally boot you into the desired mode...

HELP! Bricked s10 after trying to flash GSI havoc rom

Yesterday I was trying to install gsi havoc rom on my s10 g9730f and seem to have bricked it. I was following this tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Quba4DSvLc
and installed this rom:
ARM64-AB: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hav...mg.xz/download
from this page:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...e-development/havoc-os-3-3-gsi-archs-t4076903
I managed to flash TWRP with odin fine and booted into twrp recovery. I then performed the wipes, flashed dm no verity and then the rom. The rom booted first time (but didnt go into any set up, just went straight to the rom as though I had already set it up, which I thought was strange).
After looking around the rom and not liking it much, I shut the phone down with the intention of going back into recovery to try and flash a different rom or flash it back to stock. The phone shut down but is now stuck showing the charging circle only. It wont turn on, I cannot boot into download mode by pressing Vol down + Bixby and plugging the cable in, and I am unable to boot into recovery by pressing power, vol up and bixby. The phone seems completely dead. My computer/odin wont recognise it if I plug it in, and adb devices doesnt find it either.
All I can think of now is to leave it long enough so the battery might drain out and then I might be able to get back into download mode to flash back to stock.
Has anyone else had this problem, and is there anything I can do? Or is it totally dead? Any help would be massively appreciated!!
Download Official Rom from Sammobile and flash it via Odin from PC.
ok crisis averted, i was too quick to assume it was bricked, i just tried again and have somehow managed to boot into download mode after all and am flashing back to stock now

im not quite sure, i was trying all the different button combinations again (which i had tried many times previous), and i think it was when i was holding power and volume down for a while, that suddenly the white charging circle went off and after being completely black for a few seconds, the samsung logo appeared, at which point i managed to boot back into the device. It obviously wasnt bricked but was definitely stuck. I shut it down again and this time it shut down properly, then managed to boot into download mode and have just flashed it back to stock.
i wish it wasnt so difficult to root s10s, its frustrating
