[Q] My phone isn't booting.... - G2 and Desire Z General

I was playing a game and I opened the keyboard, the game crashed, I could hear the music then the screen went dark and the phone restarted, then it went into a boot loop, HTC logo then the Vodafone logo, then the HTC logo etc etc. So I pulled the battery, booted holding power down (or up I forgot) and I think I chose the reboot boot loader option, I have no idea what that is and probably shouldn't have did that, anyway, then I pulled the battery again and now the phone wont turn on at all, and the LED doesn't come on to show it's being charged. I'm kinda worried, no warranty or returns, I got it off Ebay, pleaaase help me XDA, you're my only hope.
EDIT: I have all my apps and games installed to the SD card, checked the SD card out and it's completely fine, far as I could tell all files were there, and I ran the Windows 7 hardware check tests and all returned fine
Edit2: Just put the battery back in after keeping it out for about half an hour maybe more, still no dice.
Edit3: I get an orange LED if I plug the phone into the computer, It's the first sign of life I've seen out of it for a while now, so I'm going to leave it plugged in for a while.

Come on guys I'm freaking out here

Can your PC detect the phone. Have tried adb?

Try running an ruu. Preferably a version that's actually rootable. Sounds like you may have borked the bootloader, which is really a bad look, because without the bootloader, your phone can't boot, or load the system. And since you're actually getting the orange light when you plug it to the computer, you might still be in luck.
Post back and let us know what happens, and I hope everything works out for ya.

Right now my phone is plugged into the mains and the orange LED is flashing. I'm not really sure what ADB or RUU is? So basically there's no way I'm getting my phone to run the way it was, so there's no reason not to do a reset if I can?
EDIT: Sorry guys I know you probably get this a lot but I'd reaaaly appreciate if anyone could help me out here, I need to get this phone running ASAP, and since the phone is basically screwed I may as well flash a rootable firmware version like mpitcher225 said, I've been wanting to root the phone for a while but didn't want to mess with it, but now I don't have a choice . Is there any step by step guides for my situation?

I would suggest coming to the #G2ROOT irc http://webchat.freenode.net/
The guys there can assess your situation and will be able to give you one to one advice.

Thanks I'll give that a try, not getting a reply yet but I'll be patient and hope someone is nice enough to help me out

ADB says errorevice not found.
I have it plugged into the pc via usb, then I open the command prompt and cd to the adb directory, then i typed adb -s SERIALNUMBER shell

If you only have one device plugged in, you won't need the serial number. Test with "adb devices" and then get to business with "adb shell"

Windows doesn't make the device plugged in noise when I plug it in, and the phone isn't showing the orange LED anymore.

adb devices shows nothing. The orange LED is on again. If I plug the phone in, take out, then reinsert the battery, the LED goes on.... My phones dead isn't it?

Kinda sounds like it. I didn't read all those posts, but did you get you're hands on an Ruu?
Swyped from my Red Hot HP Officejet 3800

I found "RUU_Vision_Hutch_AUS_1.85.861.3_Radio_12.28h.60.140f_26.06.02.27_M_release_172438_signed" but it crashes when I open it :S. I wasn't sure which RUU to get. Someone on Reddit is suggesting it might be the battery.... I'm not sure, but I'd love to test it, any ideas on how I can test the battery? Should the phone boot without a battery, and plugged into mains?

Just an update. The phone is plugged into the mains charger and the orange LED light is flashing.... From what I've read that means low battery (Now I think about it I have seen it flashing orange on battery saver before). What could that mean? battery is faulty? battery isn't charging? I'm hoping it is the battery tho I am probably grasping at straws here. A simple test would be to get a fully charged battery and stick it in there and see if it boots... Only problem is getting a battery, if I order one off ebay theres a chance it wont work, it wont be fully charged, and I'll have to wait a week. Any ideas?

Nexus not powering on

Hi there , i came home at lunch time and i had left my nexus charging for about 2 hrs, the led light was green, i needed to take a couple of pictures so i unplugged , took the pictures, powered the phone off, took out the battery popped out the sdcard and put it in my puter, ( brand new laptop, just brought, adb not setup yet) hence using the sdcard, anyway i finished getting the pics off, put the sdcard back in the phone, put battery back in and booted up , it hang at the X screen, i waited for ages, nothing happened so i took out the battery and placed it back in again, this time my phone wouldnt start at all, when i plug in the charger, no led lights, nothing.
Anyone have any ideas? Im in new zealand and brought the phone brand new off trademe (similiar to ebay) so i dunno where i stand with the warranty, and have not rang htc new zealand yet. and bootloader is unlocked. thanks
You can browse to the pictures just by putting it in usb mount mode after you plug into usb, you do not need adb to transfer them to your pc. Have you tried re-seating the sd card? Starting it up without the sd card in?
I had something similar happen to me. I don't recall what happened but my phone would not power on. Try taking the battery out and let the phone sit for about 10-15 minutes. Then try to power it up with the battery. Good luck.
hey krabman, thanks for you comment im not to sure what re seating the card is, and i have tried to start the phone without the card in.
I have also tried this suggestion by fivevolts in this discussion
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=23fd2d91446cdb46&hl=en
@ClanLee Thanks for your comment trying that now , fingers crossed EDIT: no go on that thanks anyway
Reseating would be removing it and putting it back in.
Have you tried booting it on wall power? As in with it plugged into the charger?
Also have you tryed booting into recovery? Hold volume down and press power button. Or trackball and power button.
Have you tried to hold the power button for 10-20 seconds?
Just some suggestions I could think up real quick.
Hope you get it working mate.
Battery connections
I had the same thing happen to me.
What I found out was that the battery connections (i.e. 4 little golden contacts) were not all straight.
All you have to do is bend the ones that are not straight back to their original position.
Hope it works out for you, I don't have a suggestion, but thought you should know you don't need adb to access the sd card. Just plug the phone in with usb and it asks you if you want to mount the card. Then it works just like any external drive.
@clarkster, gloewy and _Dennis_, thanks for your comments, much appreciated, and i have tried all your suggestions except checking to see if the battery contacts are straight...though wouldnt i still get a led light showing if i plugged it into the wall charger with out the battery in? And thinking i needed adb to be able to mount the sdcard was pretty stupid, dunno what i was thinking
I think I remember that the LED light should flash or something if it is plugged in without a battery in it.
If you are getting nothing at all out of the device, I'm afraid something horrible has happened. But there is a bright side (or at least slightly less dark). If it is completely dead, there is no way for HTC to know if you rooted it or not, so the warranty replacement should work smoothly.

officially bricked

I tried to load up the new gingerbread roms from my current one. I downloaded its content and tried to install it via clockwork.
I first deleted system, logo, and cache followed up by a restore format. When trying to download the new rom, I was getting a weird error that was stopping me from completing the full installation. So basically was in a chokehold because I didn't have any backup files or another working rom in the sd at that time. I just restarted the phone and it for a few times was stuck on the M screen, but now its just green led when I plug it into the computer usb. When plugging it into the outlet, it imediately turns on stuck on the M screen and shuts off when unplugging as if the battery isnt charging at all.
Sounds like ur going to have to sbf.

bootloader is such a rare occurance for me, i just had it come out but it was flashing low battery. the thing is, im not quite sure if its charging if i have it plugged into the computer. when i have it plugged into an outlet, the M splash screen comes up so i'm worried that draining the power..
edit: now it flickers for a split second, am i supposed to hold on to it til something shows up? been like 1 minute
i dont think bricking phone blows your battery. at least i hope it doesnt, was working fine before.
Plug it in without the battery if a question mark comes up you ned to use another battery cuz it won't charge in boot loader and the boot loader should pop up right away hold power volume down and camera button it takes about three seconds
swyped from my DROIDX using XDA App
well its basically the same thing. when plug into the outlet it shows the m splash screen with or without the battery.
when its plugged into the compuiter however, its just flickers once. when it is done with the battery in, the led is on forever
EDIT: OBSERVATION
when on the wall, it is actually charging, but REALLY slowly because of the fact that the splash screen stays on. found this out because i had it in for30 min and then tried to connect mit to my comp with bootload and it loaded for a few minutes with the low battery flashing.
is version 320 the latest?
Okay. so it isnt charging as I though because its not working at all... problem is, I dont know if it truly is a battery defect. If I were to Buy a new battery, how would i know if it is charging if it doesnt boot and just stays stuck on the M logo screen?
perhaps I should by a battery charger where i take the battery out and charge it through there? because my bootloader always gives me the same low battery.
Do you have any friends with the same phone? There is also a macgyver (spelling?) Method of doing this by cutting the USB cable open and attaching the cable ends to the battery. However I would only do this if you're really desperate
i just really need make complete sure that this phone is INFACT dead battery
when not plug, it doesnt turn on what so ever with a white spark on the led.
when plugged nto outlet the logo shows but i isnt charging because it isnt booting
when plugged into the computer it is a solid green which i think represent a dead or a low battery state(can someone back thisup?)
Your battery is dead, as in drained, but should work fine once you get your phone to a bootable state again. The problem is that, in the state your phone is in, there's no charging capabilities. Bootloader won't do it, neither will sitting at the M logo. So, you just need to find someone with a compatible battery to let you use it to SBF your phone. Then, boot the phone up completely, and let your battery charge to at least 50-60% before trying to install a ROM. Preferably, I'd go with a full charge, just in case you end up in a similar situation again.
This is nothing to freak out over, you'll be fine.. the only problem you have is that your battery has no juice, as confirmed by the low battery warning in the bootloader, when you successfully got it to load.

thanks for the reassuring comment, however, i think i need to bootload.
i accidently did the partition hat formats everything.. cant recall if it was under clockwork because it didnt have the same interface, i was all light blue text with an ok button on the left corner. Anyway, i've completely destroyed the phone as in no roms no factory.
can I possibly get a dock to charge this battery and then get into bootloader for an sbf session
? Even if I did have battery, im pretty sure i just hover at the logo screen

You definitely need to use the bootloader, and I was implying that in the first reply(SBF'ing requires going into the bootloader). If you had a stand-alone battery charging cradle/dock, that should do the trick. Just make sure to let the battery charge sufficiently. I've successfully gotten an SBF completed, starting with only 30% battery. SBF takes about 7 minutes on my laptop(not that I've timed it, but I usually light up a smoke when I start the process lol). So, as long as the battery is charged enough to no longer give the "Low Battery" warning in the bootloader, you should be fine.
You got your usb cable and put the ends where the battery goes that's how I got mine working try it

Hard Bricked my phone

I already posted this in Q&A, but I thought it would get noticed more in this section.
Ok I believe my phone is "Hard Bricked", because it doesn't power up at all. The Green led light will show if i take the battery out and plug it into the computer. This happened as was trying to start the process to unlock my bootloader. I was using RSDlite, loading the "zomgunlock" sbf file, put my phone into rsd mode plugged it in, pressed start and next thing i know it turned off and won't turn back on. Can someone help me?

Hi,
I am a NOOB but was reading another post that had a similar problem. Not sure how to make a link to it.
The issue the other fellow had was that when he plugged in to the USB port it was actually draining his battery rather than charging it.
There are specific drivers on the Moto website that you need for the computer to charge the phone.
The short way around it is to charge at the wall.
The title of the post I am referencing is "[SOLVED] Atrix will not power on, green light flashes, plugged in and.... nothing!" initially posted 24th Feb 2011 last post was today.
If your issue is more complicated than this then I apologise for wasting your time.
Worst case no further harm done.
I'm pretty sure my battery is pretty good atm but I'll try anything to get my atrix working again
That happened to me when I was trying to flash the unlock bootloader for mine. I'm using the Atrix on Orange running on U4_4.2.0. Completely bricked with the same green light but nothing happening. Told Orange and got a new one luckyly, next day!
Yea well im on my second from at&t bcuz of a hardware problem, unless I'm able to get a third one. .i ned to find out how to fix this, and the battery charger method didn't work for me

USB port on a computer won't drain a connected device. Problem there was he was trying to charge a drained battery on USB 2.0 which doesn't supply enough power to charge properly. The solution to his problem was to charge with the proper Motorola AC wall charger.
Yea I know but I tried the fixes anyway since there was no harm
If it's an AT&T phone take it to a repair center and they will replace it if its less than 1 year old. You don't even need the crappy insurance.
I thought it's only me
I have same problem, googled it 2 days ago - noboday else reported it
same problem - flashed the unlock-able boot-loader - phone turn off, and died...
I progressed a bit more - after replacing battery with a fully charged one, just to find out it's not a battery issue - I prepared the "special cable" - pin 4 connected to VCC.
now - my phone does recognize my phone, as "APX". after providing drivers found in google - it now recognized as "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices".
it doesn't really help, as RSDlite is still not recognizing it, and using NVflash - i get only errors...
I know - i didn't really helped to solve the problem, as I'm "stuck" with it too, just wanted to share my effort...

rooted mt4g, powerbutton doesnt work.. under warranty?

My rooted mt4g's power button just stopped working. So i couldn't shut it off for some time. i would reboot by going to terminal emulator, su and reboot.
Today i rebooted my phone and it didnt reboot properly...was stuck on the black screen so i had no choice but to pull the battery out, so now i cant turn it back on.
I called tmobile and explain the problem and said its still under warranty so they will send me a replacement, i only have to pay for shipping.
my question is that since i cant turn on the phone to bring it back to original rom/unroot. Do u guys think there is going to be an issue when i return the phone to them rooted with cm7? i dont want to get charged however much they charge for returning phones that voilated the warranty thingy.

Hmmm I see... Do phone's detect ADB while it's off? If so then that's you're only hope I'm assuming.
If all else fails then maybe you can just pop the phone in the microwave for a quick 3 seconds so that the phone wont boot at all. Now that's raking it to extreme of course.
Chances are that T-Mobile wont even check. But I guess its a risk. Because then it'd suck if T-Mobile did turn it on then find a custom ROM.

Lol yeah, that's an extreme answer but it would be very unfortunate if they decide to try and turn it on then find out it's been modded. I think they end up charging your account like 350 or whatever.
But IMO I honestly don't think they'll even go that far to check. But that's just my opinion lol. Either way, good luck man.
Pull out the battery.
Connect the USB charging cable.
Insert the battery.
Repeat several times until your phone turns on.
Might work.
tried it maybe like 4 times.. its what the tmobile tech support asked me to do.

Seems to work for me - insert battery while it's plugged in, if it doesn't turn on, battery out, battery in.
As for a software reboot - download the app Easy Reboot.
For HBOOT, try holding down the volume down key while the charger is plugged in, and insert the battery as above.

weird i just tried the battery on and off... still didnt work, the charge light just goes on and off as well... i do have an aftermarket charger, and im using the wall charger not the usb to computer... if that makes any difference..
Yeah I was using the wall charger too, but the one that came with the phone. The very first battery insert (followed by a 5 second pause) started the phone up. Strange. I have ENG HBOOT and ClockworkMod 5.x installed if that makes a difference.
i dont have eng hboot because my phone is already unlocked by tmobile, i didnt see a need for it. i have the latest cwm and latest cm7...

Just on a whim - I don't suppose that running a RUU.exe will provide a way to force the phone to turn on? Doubtful but worth a try.

[Q] mt4g flashing LED no vibrate no screen

Hey guys, Im trying to fix this mt4g for a friend.. It wont boot, I cant get into hboot or recovery, all it does is flash the LED. I have read post saying its because I was unsuccessful at loading bootloader, however it doesn't vibrate like the others are saying. I left the battery out for a couple hours along with sd and sim, also tried charging through the night... I cannot figure this one out, also, the computer will not recognize any new hardware or drivers. Is this phone bricked beyond repair?
I put the battery on my battery charger and let the battery charge outside of the phone now when I put the battery in the phone and plug it in to the computer, the red LED comes on and stays on, along with a red glow on the trackpad... Anyone know what to do?
Blinking LED is either the battery is charging to at least one percent, or you didn't press the right button combo to boot into bootloader. Power + Volume Down is bootloader, Volume up will give you three vibrates and a flashing LED, where you will have to pull your battery.
Thanks, I cant get the phone to do anything... I plug it in with the battery in, without pushing any buttons and the LED comes on and the IR trackpad light comes on... It wont respond to anything, no drivers popup.. Is there anyway to recover a bricked mt4g? Im new to it, as I have an Evo and have never had anything like this occur with all the evos i've flashed and rooted... If someone knows anyway to fix this feel free to give input..
Thanks everyone!
ya .. mine is doing the samething.
I just try to turn it on and I get one vibrate ... nothing else
I hit down and power and I get one vibrate .. nothing else
I hit up and power I get 3 fast vibrates and a flashing orange led ... I try to plug the USB here and I get 3 fast beeps on the comp
I hit up and down vol and power I get 5 fast vibrates with a solid green led and noting else... usb again beeps 3 times on the comp
neither will recognize the usb and I have reinstalled the drivers .. and of course none will work with adb either.
I think we are screwed really ... but maybe someone knows something i dont on this here. Thanks for any help.

ya .. no luck so far ..I have tried a lot .. different drivers .. HTC sync .. etc.
I have tried different button pushes .. usb ports .. wont work in adb .. nothing is doing anything.
all I hear thru my speakers when I plug it in is that damn the fast 3 beeps .. ike a "hell no go F yourself you arent connecting it"
and there isnt a lot of info online bout this .. other than some others have the same LED blinking and stuff .. I still dont know what the different LED modes mean.
so IM screwed .. BUT I am getting an LG G2X as an alternate exchange thru T-Mobile warranty though. goodbye mytouch 4G Hello to G2X AND Galaxy S II(bought) .. fun times!
I found a thread somewhere, not sure where but it said that if you cant get anything and the infra-red on the touch sensor is lit the phone is completely bricked!
Its not bricked. Somethign is wacky with the phone, mine has done it and thats why im trying to find out what the hell is going on. My phone acts like its completely dead. This post migt end up being really long.
Ok, i notices this, i used my phone as a wifi hot spot. Turned it off. Left my phone alone, i then put it on charge and went to sleep. Woke up looked at the battery, no color other than the lighting bolt. Unplugged it then went off. Pluged charger back in and orange led flashes. Tried to get into recovery nothing. Tried to power it on, nothing, tried the volume down and power, three vibrations. Ok then i decided to take out the battery in and out, didnt work, tried leaving the battery out for a few minutes, then put it back in, same. Took out memory card, sim card. Then plugged in the charger. Let it sit for awhile then it works. I notice if you dont use the orginal charger that may also be the problem. I dont have my orginal but i used a walmart charger and seems like a super charger and some how charged my battery enough to be booted up, i daily use a charger that i found with the same connection x-( , that could be the problem. I dunno what makes this happen but it happened to me at least three times. I kinda figure the battery or the emmc chip is involved, could be the hotspot, could be anything, but we dont have enough evidence to figure it out, ill try to post what my battery usage on here. I use cm7 and it only happens when i use it. I tried all other roms but no repeats. That was my story.

ya .. mine is doing the samething.
I just try to turn it on and I get one vibrate ... nothing else
I hit down and power and I get one vibrate .. nothing else
I hit up and power I get 3 fast vibrates and a flashing orange led ... I try to plug the USB here and I get 3 fast beeps on the comp
I hit up and down vol and power I get 5 fast vibrates with a solid green led and noting else... usb again beeps 3 times on the comp
neither will recognize the usb and I have reinstalled the drivers .. and of course none will work with adb either.
I think we are screwed really ... but maybe someone knows something i dont on this here. Thanks for any help.

I have done all these as well, and still unable to get past the black screen, or acheive bootloader as well. I have even left the battery out for a couple of hours, and still no different. Going to try recharging the battery once more, and some other things.
As for adb it is of no help as of now. I keep getting an error saying no device found. Has anyone found a way past this yet, to try rebooting through adb?
*Edit*
After trying to replace files on the sdcard I was not able to get past this issue. Also spoke with tech support, and was not able to get anywhere with their help. After speaking with them, I have come to conclusion the is bricked. I still cannot figure out what caused the phone to do this I broke down and sending it out to be replaced. Thankfully I have the insurance so I don't have to pay anything for the replacement.
Apparently its not bricked cause I'm still using mine. Try a different charger probly a stronger one like walmarts. I think the battery has a fart and is messed up for a little when it doesn't have a good charge

I have done this, fully charged it twice, and no change for me. I am glad it worked out for you.
Its not bricked.
Download the stock rom, and put that .zip in the root of your SD card. Put it in, press Power + Volume DOWN and wait for the bootloader. Once it boots, it should recognize the .zip and ask if you want to update it, run the update and your phone will be at stock again. Then root again, install Clockwork, and hopefully you backed up your ROM. This won't effect S-OFF, but you will have to run VisionARY again to get root permissions to run clockwork.
Hope this Helps.
one more
I am too having this problem
just blink orange
can't access bootloader or any else....
I too had this problem not too long ago. My power button wouldn't work though... I just connected via USB to my computer with the battery out, put it back in while connected and it turned on. Maybe I'm just lucky but give it a try
