Hi there,
I've got a problem with my A500 (rooted with taboonay ROM).
I've been using it for weeks without a problem. But now it doesn't boot any more. The screen stays black, the Power button lights on when I press it, but that's all.
I tried to hold Volume button while pressing Power, but it won't boot either.
I don't understand why it behaves like this.
Any way to force it to boot, please?
thanks !
Look somewhere on the forums, there was a topic how to unbrick.

Try doing a hard reset.
There's a little pinhole on right, lower side of tab labeled "reset".
I tried to push this little button, the power button lights on but the screen stays off...thank you anyway. Any other tips?

The vol-dwn + power combination doesn't work - the real combination is vol-up+ home btn + power button. Should take you to the recovery menu(you move up and down with the vol key and select with the home button).

Hi!
I've flashed my phone quite a few times and now I can't get pass the tri color boot up screen. It all started when I started to use task29 for my flashing. Wasn't the first time I used it but the last time I did the phone just ended up with (what it seems like no rom). When I press the power button the phone loads the tri color screen saying serial or USB (if USB connected) I've tried to reflash with both SD-card and USB but it ends up the same way. Flashing reaches 100% (tried stock rom and others) but when booting up it still goes to the tri color screen.
Using SPL 1.56 OliNex.
Hopefully somewould knows what to do. Big thanks!
looks to me like your volume down button may be stuck in, see if it is and what happens after that
Hi. Well the volume button is stuck but it usually works by pressing the power button a couple of sec. now that doesn't work

then you need to unstick the button, it will never boot properly otherwise.

First question: Not sure if it's the phone or the software but when I shutdown my phone and try to turn it back on by holding the volume button and the power button, it doesn't work. But as soon as release the power button, it decides to turn on. Can someone help me with this?
Second question: Does my phone need to be rooted to get Android 4.1.1?
NOTE* Currently on Android 2.3
1) Keep trying, you shouldn't have to release a button to turn it on. Are you holding the right buttons? Its down+power
2)Yes

First Volume down, then the power button, it should be on within 3 seconds.
Do you have ADB enabled? Plug your phone into your computer, if your computer recognizes it via ADB, come back
Help!

I would try pushing recovery img through adb. See if that solves the problem.
Hi !
I bought a Nexus 4 for 10 bucks from a taxi driver knowing it has this problem . I searched the whole internet and barely found some info, most of the people who got this problem just force closed it and then it worked. But with this one, it happens everytime i turn it on.
You can see the problem in the video.
Also, if i let it boot, i can change the volume and i managed to turn on the flash, so the touch is working. And the screen does the same thing if i wake it, but it's not that bright..
Can anyone help me ?
I don't know if it has root or anything, if you can at least help me with a guide to flash it without knowing anything about the software or the settings in it, i'd be really thankful!

Hi
If you can go to stock recovery i.e press an hold volume down+power button until you see bootloader.
Then press volume down key until you see recovery. Press power button to select.
Then press an hold power button and press volume up key and release all keys.
Now you are in recovery.
You can do a factory wipe.
See if that solves the problem.
Good Luck
