A couple nights ago, just after I turned off the lights to go to sleep, the room was illuminated with this white light. Turns out my phone's flash was turned on somehow. I opened the camera app to see if the flash was on...it wasn't. When I turned it on, the light got much brighter. I shut the phone completely off and the flash light would still kind of blink then stay on. The light isn't as bright as it is when the actual flash is turned on in the camera app. I had to pull the battery completely to get it to shut off. The next morning I put the battery back in and instantly the flash light flickered and came back on. It seems like if I enable the flash in the camera app it will stay off for a while, but it seems to always come back on at some point. Anyone else with this problem? If not, I guess I can try a hard reset, followed by a return to cingular.
Flash light malfunction
Hi!
I have exactly the same problem and my xda mini s is just 1 week old!
Does anybody knows any reason for this behaviour?Or any solution?
I am afraid I have to return the device back to O2.-
Also I saw that I do not have any o2 stuff preinstalled on my mini s.I got it in germany a week back,is it normal that o2 has stopped delivering the o2 stuff in the latest versions.What I see is just the splash screen when the device starts up.
Any in info/advice would be v. obliging!
Regards,
Vineet
My 8125 start to do the same thing. Have you guys figured it out what's wrong and how to fix this?
I've tried soft-reset/hard-reset, loaded new ROM, took battery out and leave it for a while... but the problem is still there.
Retured the device
I returned the device and got a new one,now the problem is no more.
Guys if this behaviour exists on your device then its a malfunction in the device ..o2 guy confirmed this too me..Return this immediately!
Ahuja
that happened to my on my 8125 as well.
no way to stop it
no clue what was wrong
luckly i was within 30 days and i returned it.
Thank you!
Unfortunately, it's been more than 30 days since i got this phone. I guess i will have to call cingular and request a warranty exchange.
Was working fine this morning, alarm went off etc and checked my mail. Put it into my pocket to read on the bus, got it out and it wouldn't come out of sleep mode. So tried reset with the stylus, no luck, so then pulled the battery and powered on.
All I get now is the green light coming on and staying on and that's it nothing else. I've got Hard-SPL the last released version and Shamanix Ultimate rom which has been fine for the last few months. And yer now this.
I've tried removing the sim card, the storage card and plugging it into windows. It detects something, brings up a network device but then I get nothing after that. I've tried using RUUWrapper to flash another OS rom but it still won't go. (This only happened once)
*Update* Somehow after plugging the usb cable in and holding power and the ok button to get the tri colour screen (even though its staying black) it managed to attempt to flash a new image to my phone. It said it was successful but its still not booting. I'm going to try and reflash the radio and hard spl but any other ideas? I tried looking for mtty to go through that way but no luck.
i had the same problem like you any help oli, pof or any one who could help to come back our hermes??
you sure its even a software problem? it seem to me like a hardware problem, like ur lcd screen is dead or something. i would try a remote control app like mymobiler and see if there's anything there first

Could be a hardware issue but I don't think its the LCD. The lights to indicate bluetooth aren't flashing which I had on by default. Its also not even flashing the green light at this point. It sorta powers on but thats it.
*Update*
After a bit of time the light did start flashing green but no bluetooth. The red and green phone buttons also turned on (Dopod 838 Pro). Its also now appearing to charge off the USB. But still no link in windows. I can ring the phone but nothing happens, it rings in the phone im using but the mobile itself does not.
well in my case my device if i plug it in the charger it charges but no led indication if i turn on the device only the green led turns on but it stays no start of splash etc etc etc only i can put it in bootmode if i flash it dont makes nothing
Well I dropped the phone into the service centre. It is 11 days (taking into account the leap year) outside of warranty. I'm kinda annoyed because the tech there said 3 would normally replace/repair under warranty at 10 days out of warranty.
Either way i've got a quote of $140, they claim its the screen but didnt have a screen in stock to test so i'm waiting for that. Three may still cover it under warranty because its so close to the warranty period and well i've had a few billing issues with them before where they were at fault. Namely the charged my credit card which they had been for over 6 months with no issues and then claimed I had not paid them. It took two weeks and multiple complaints before they accepted my bank statement showing them it was paid.
Still waiting now at almost a week and a half but hopefully its just the screen and they will fix it for me. They were hesitant to but I believe they will cover all of it, at first only offered 50% of the cost which is a bit of a kick in the teeth when its so close to warranty and under statutory warranty it should be covered.
Will keep this updated.
so has anyone figured out a reason/solution to this issue?
Unfortunately no
Once three got the parts in and tested them in my unit they were still unable to get it to boot nor get into some kind of special boot diagnostic mode they use so it was declared a complete board failure and deemed uneconomical to repair.
As it was so close to warranty they are now trying to sort out what they can do, possibly a loyalty upgrade or something similar. I've given them ideas of what phone I would like to get and hopefully they can accommodate me else I will look at chasing the statutory warranty angle.
Hey everyone,
So I just got a replacement phone from T-mobile through a warranty exchange and have had an intermittent issue with it lately.
After using my phone I always press the power button quick to lock the screen and turn it off. Well when I do that it occasionally will go black for a second then turn back on in the locked state. It can take up to 6 or 7 attempts of pressing the power button quick to turn the screen off like it should.
Trying to use the power button to turn the screen back on once locked it has a similar issue but it will turn on for a second then go black again. This can take several attempts to get the screen to keep on so I can use the screen.
Anyone have an idea on a cause or even better a solution to this?
My best guess is a hardware issue that I cant do much about besides trying to do another exchange with T-mobile.
Any help is appreciated.
The warranty exchange phones are re-furbished phones and it isn't uncommon for there to be something wrong with the warranty replacement. Hopefully if you haven't rooted the phone then just call them back up and tell them that there is something mechanically wrong with the warranty replacement. They won't be surprised and they'll send out another one.
remember you can always unroot....
Well of course ... but I mean if he just got the replacement phone then he may not have rooted it so it's one step less prior to sending it back ... that's what I meant.
PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
I have had many different issues with this phone since day one, 2 months ago. All the sudden the other day I put the phone on the charger at that time it had a half battery, about a half hour later it started turning itself off and back on continuously and the back of phone was hot. I had to wait for the right timing after it turned back on, to power it off completely. i have called Sprint and Sharp to have someone help me or walk me through options and I keep getting the run around as to who's responsibility it is to help me Tech wise and or replace my phone through my TEP. I have since looked up a way to hard reset... hold power and volume and a screen of options should come up, with about 5 options. Mine only shows, Reboot System Now..... and Wipe Data / Factory Reset. NEITHER WORK. I will be making sure some how some way I get my phone replaced. However in the meantime I would like to know if someone can please help!!! I am completely with out a phone at this point and can not call for further Technical Support or Help. PS: Soft reset did not work. And also the phone does not stay on much longer then the time to load then it's already powering back off on it's own.
Thank you for your time.

Please if you can help me answer me, this is my only phone and I need asap.
I have Huawei nova 3i, the battery has been in a bad condition for more than 4 months, and each day I noticed it had less life and a hot phone each time I charge it, one day I left it to charge and I swear it was for less than an hour I found the logo in my face, and it was stuck, I went yesterday after trying every possible way for a week of pressing power + vol down and power + vol up ( the first one made the phone keep booting again and again with the logo,and the second one made it keep vibrate with a black screen)
I let the battery drain and came back to pressing but the only thing came was the red battery meaning no power and red led light, so I got back on charger and repeated the above and nothing new came to light.
I took it to a tec center and someone said it might be battery, unfortunately I changed it for a high price and it didn't work after the change, still the exect same, I went home tried to enter erecovery multiple times but I never can, and I plugged it in a PC then a screen came to light, with the android bot and words saying in green
FRP Lock
Phone is locked
I was SO happy when finally something appeared, but again nothing I can do I pressed up down power, nothing happened in this screen too.
Please if anyone know any ANY possible way to get it back without losing data or with losing data ( but I will be much more happy if I didn't lose data I have so many files I need) kindly please just tell me, I can do it the work on a PC too just tell me the program needed and I will look it up.
I will thank u forever.
I forgot to mention that at the tec center they told me that it will need a box flash, something like miracle box maybe?
And again today I went to other tec center and he said flashing it might actually not make it work,so I'm really scared of what to do now.
What's the actual problem? The system? OS? It needs a new emui update? What exactly is the problem Does anyone know what the problem is for it to never comeback to life? Could it be in need of inside cleaning? Ugh I'm so lost
anything please
you went to official huawei center? they will not help you
go to any other 3rd party service center, and they can flash it
