Hello, I recently got a used Mytouch 4G, and after a week of use, it has been acting wierd. Lately I have been DL'ing apps for free. Yesterday I was trying to root my phone, which led to complete failure, I tried everything to root it, and it wouldnt root. So I Factory Reset about 5 times yesterday, and put all of my old apps back on. Today, I got on my mytouch and all the apps I put on disappeared and left me with shortcuts that lead to nothing. So I Factory Reset again just to get rid of misc junk, and re-added all of my old apps. I was in the middle of installing a new app, and it began to install, then froze. I was unable to turn it off, so I took out battery and put it back in. It seemed to start fine but it would just stay at loading screen and say "Mytouch" and kept restarting itself, and it would not turn off, again.. So I took the battery out and put it back in, and same thing, this was repeated several times, then I left it off and put the charger in, the orange'ish light came on, then turned green. I held the "power" button for a minute, and it wouldnt turn on. It still wont turn on, and the charging light wont light up noow.
Simplified:
MyTouch 4G bought used.
Android 2.2.1
Temp rooted several times for apps.(never perm rooted).
Will not turn on; Charging light wont turn on; volumedown + power button doesnt work.
When I plug it into the computer it makes a sound, but doesnt let me access it.
Was unable to perm root.
Says QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager
Please, any help is appreciated, this phone has no warranty..
Dead - looks like it has its SBL corrupted. You can't repair it yourself.

So i got this message yesterday that i installed some bad software, which i find kinda odd (battery was emptied aswell, so not sure what was up - 2 top lights blinked red 3 times when i pressed power), but that's a different story, so it said i had to do a hard reset, which i did, now i need to update to the latest official version, i used the update service before which worked fine, now however i can't get it done, my battery is full (it doesn't show it's charging anymore both on the screen and no lights go on), so it says it has to stay connected to the pc, turn off and remove the battery, put it back in and start it up with the volume and on button, however as soon as i put the battery in it will turn on itself, i've tried it like 10 times now and i'm getting pretty frustrated, especially because i can't use my phone properly at the moment.
Alright so I flashed a new update from recovery and went to restart to system and the phone just shut off and now won't power on at all. doesn't show the logo screen doesn't light anything up. its currently powered down plugged in and I don't even have the charging screen. did I brick it? is this recoverable? I tried battery pull twice two different chargers sd card no sd card everything I can think of. no water damage at all. seems really strange that it would just shut off and be unresponsive after that. it's only a month old kept in good care.
Edit: I managed to get it to have the charging symbol when I pluged it in tried to turn it on and right back to where i started without the charging symbol
that happened to me with my first intercept, the froyo update didn't complete and the phone shut down and never came back on, i thought it was a dead battery, but the charge was full, it was like the power buttons lost their mapping. vm told me to take it back to the place i bought it from and they replaced it, vm takes a couple days and if you got the protection plan they will porbably send you a replacement
Hi.
So, yesterday evening I plugged in my Galaxy S4 I9505 (international, and running stock Android 4.2.2) since it had low battery, then set the alarm clock and went to bed. Today I woke up, checked my clock (not the phone's, my actual clock), and since it was earlier than when my alarm would ring I took the phone to check my emails a bit... only to find out that the phone was stuck on the lockscreen and was not responding to anything. Perplexed, I took the battery off, put it back on, switched the phone on and it seemed to work fine, only to freeze again after a few minutes. I took once again the battery off, put it back on, and this time it didn't turn on at all. I tried several times, tried also while charging, but it doesn't even seem to charge, the led is completely dead. I tried to boot into recovery, nothing. Once or twice when I tried to turn it on it would show on the upper part of the screen an extremely fast and small red text, like the ones you see in recovery but red instead of green, but it was so fast in appearing ad disappearing that I didn't even have time to read it.
Then I tried googling the problem, and of all the different methods only one seemed to work: take off the battery for 10 seconds, put it back on, press volume down + power + home. Which I did try before, but without waiting before putting in the battery again. I tried it this time with the 10 seconds of waiting (while not plugged in to the charger), and it worked. The screen asked if I wanted to flash a CR or just restart. I choose restart. The phone immediately died again and didn't turn on, not even with the method that worked a few seconds before.
I haven't been able to turn it on since then, and I've tried everything. I'm quite desperate, because I have AADD and I do everything with my phone, it's my lifesaver and the only thing with which I'm able to organize and remember stuff (including my daily meds). Also the only thing I never forget to bring with me. I literally can't stay more than a full week without it, is there anything I can do or try to make it work again?
Is there really no one who can help me?

mate try to use a charged battery from anther s4 switch it on
My phone suddenly turned off and now only the notification light blinks three (blue, green and red) colors and doesn't turn on.
I have already tried all button combinations, it doesn't turn on.
Please help.
Same here, except on my side my huawei slowly struggled to boot up on android and EMUI each time i've booted it up- in other cases even being in a bootloop or stuck at the startup animation.
Few of the times i was able to successfully get there, most of my phone's pics used to get corrupt without doing anything, and yet was becoming slower each time.
Nowadays it's in the same conditions.
Tried every combination too, same LED reaction.
One day i even attempted to tear it apart and try to unplug and plug back the battery:
yet nothing. Phone wasn't working.
Never did anything particular to it (ex. rooting, flashing) since i used it normally.
I'm afraid the SoC died, the partitions screwed up, or idk.
Hope there is a way to save it without resorting to buy new components.
I was changing the boot animation on my moto and I had restarted afterwards and the phone turned off but didn't turn back on. I tried plugging it in for a little bit to see if it would turn on and it still would not turn on, nothing even came up on the screen, just the led blinks. I made backups of everything so I thought I would flash one back but when I held the buttons for recovery and still nothing will come on the screen. Can anyone help or suggest anything? I just got this phone less then a week ago, so I would rather not have it bricked already. Thanks for any help.
Update: I was finally able to get my phone back on after a couple of hours with a force start, now my roaming indicator is on and will not turn off.
