Hey so recently i realized my phone would vibrate on its own and something didnt seem right. Every now amd then my phone would continuously vibrates every 3 second. I took a video but it seems like its trying to connect via usb? However i dont even have my phone plugged in. Actually when i do plug my phone in, it stops, but starts again once i unplug it.
Same exact issue with lg g6 started to happen today after I had it for 35 days, before that a couple tines was "charging blocked, more sture in USB port detected" but there was no moisture exposure at all. Contacting lg warranty. Nice forum BTW, I will register once I get to PC

I recently started having an issue with my focus when I remove it from charging. The tone that is heard when you plug it in, or unplug it....it won't shut up!
I unplug it and it makes the sound, then it will contine at random. The battery icon flashes on and off showing the phone plugged in or unplugged. If I hit the power button, it just comes right back on as if I just plugged it in again. The wifi option even keeps popping up saying it's found networks.
I've tried restarting, removing the battery and even at the advice of windowsphonesupport on twitter, I have reset the phone.
I'm not sure what's causing it as it happens mostly when I unplug it from wall power. If I have it plugged into USB PC power, it takes forever to charge and doesn't seem to make as much noise.
It doesn't seem to last all day though. For example, I unplugged this morning about 7 am and it continued for about an hour or so before it just stopped.
Last I spoke to MS's twitter team, they said to take the phone back and get a replacement. Anyone else had this problem?
I just had a similar issue this morning. The sound that you hear when you plug in the device kept playing over and over. It would stop when I plugged it back in to the charger, but would start right up again when I unplugged it. I also tried plugging it in to my computer and the computer didn't recognize the device.
I power cycled the phone and removed the battery many times and eventually the problem disappeared and the computer can now recognize the device. Hopefully this doesn't come up again. It would be a pain to reconfigure a new device again and lose my text messages.
Update:
It started doing it again this morning. I let it continue and it stopped after 15 minutes. Every time the sound went of my battery indicator would switch from charging to full battery even though the device wasn't connected to anything.
I bought this phone new on December and today I noticed a few random reboots until now, when the phone turned down and didn't rebooted.
Now when I try to turn it on, the LG logo appears for 2 seconds and the phone turns off again. I've tried to do a Cold Start pressing Volume Up, Down, Power and Shutter, and the phone keeps turning off just after the "Cold Start" appears on the display.
I have no factory warranty as the phone was bought overseas, so anybody knows what is happening?
Thanks
Did you check out this thread on random restarted?

Have you changed anything? Dropped it? Used it in a harsh environment (hot, humid)?
Did you flash it? I thought manufacturer warranty was valid even if the phone was bought overseas.

Thanks guys. I found the "problem" and it's the charger, actually the USB cable of the charger. It's probably stopped working in the middle of the night and as I needed only to use the E900 24h later, the battery was dead due to lack of recharge.
When I plugged my old Motorola Micro USB charger, the E900 simply turned on as usual and it's everything fine now.
The only strange thing is the original Micro USB cable is visually in perfect shape, but that's it, never trust in these bulk generic cables and sorry for the false alarm.
Hi everybody
I have a problem with my Galaxy S5 (no custom rom, official)
I normally used my phone, I locked it. But, after about 10 mins I tried to unlock my phone, but nothing happens
I tried to reboot, nothing happens. I tried take out and put the battery - nothing happens. So I searched on Google and tried some keys combinations, but nothing happens. My phone has about 80% battery. I tried to charge it in the charger, but nothing is happening (black screen, no notiffication light). Also I tried to put off my SIM and SD Card, but nothing happens
Do you have some skills in it? Can you help me?
Few days ago, I faced the same problem..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2853472
Then I'd to take it to the Samsumg store.. And they return it back in 2 days and said me it was a software problem..
I wanted to do a recovery reset, but i can't boot my phone anymore, also the Kies doesn't see anything, so. Did you really think that is a software problem? Because my phone won't vibrate at boot. So maybe it can be a hardware prob :/
EDIT: Phone started blinking red light... (nottiffication), I tried to charge it, but nothing...
Mate as mentioned early, same problem I faced..
It'll be better, if you return it to Samsung customer care..
You seem to be saying that the problem occurred unexpectedly. So presumably this isn't subsequent to a flash error, newly installed app or a trauma (dropping the phone, etc).
First ensure that your battery is charged, plug in the phone to a charger as well and try turning it on. If at all possible, borrow a battery from a friend's S5 or go to a store and borrow a battery for 30 seconds to confirm that the battery isn't the issue.
If the problem persists, then remove the cable and battery. Then put the battery back into the phone and press and continue to hold in this order, the volume down key, then menu key, then power key. Hold all three until the screen powers up (about 5 seconds). If this doesn't work.. the most likely problem is a damaged power key - try pressing hard or "wiggling" it to see if that makes a difference.
If you still can't start the phone, then see if a local cellular repair shop has a "jtag jig" that you can borrow. Or you can buy one on Ebay for a few dollars. When this jig is plugged into the USB socket, the phone should automatically restart.
If all of the above fails (which is unlikely), you would seem to have a hardware problem or unknown origin. Which would be very unusual. If your phone is under warranty, make a claim. Otherwise get an estimate to repair it.

If I hold all 4 buttons at the same time and connect the phone to PC, PC recognises the phone for a few seconds. Well, maybe not recognises, I cant see it, but it plays the same sound as if connected flash drive to pc. However, everytime it disconnects within a few seconds...
I´m in the same case, but I was flashing the Galaxy S5 with the four files ROM and the pit file using Odin3.09. All the process ended well, but after rebooting there apeared one Screen sayin something like "Some files at this phone are encripted and there can´t be modified......." so I did a manual reboot and take off USB cable and from this moment the phone don´t do anything but giving a sound when I plug USB to computer cable and I can see new COM --> Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, and there repeat a loop.
I´m still looking for a solution, but it gives me that there is time to change phone.
Possible Fix
This thread is old but idk if this was ever solved, so in case anyone else ever has an issue like this. My Gf is still rocking this phone so i've had a little experience with it. The phone wont turn on or charge. I got it to work by sticking a flat head screw driver and prying it fairly hard against the bottom of the battery (the side closest to the charge port) and forcing the battery harder against the metal contacts. While pushing the battery I turn on the phone and it starts right up and continues to run even after letting the pressure off. I've noticed this happens every few times i take the battery out, but this method has never failed for me turning the phone back on. Hope someone finds this helpful.

weird, youd think that bending the tabs out to force contact with the battery better would do the same trick fwif
Hi,
I use ASUS Zenfone 5 (A501CG); Firmware : 3.24.40.78; Android 5.0.
I'd like start by pointing out that my Zenfone began to dysfunction sequentially(part by part) over a period of time. All the problems did not occur at the same time.
- Currently, both the SIM slots are not working.
- USB rarely detects the phone.
- Phone turns off when ever an audio is played.
- Battery is discharging very fast.
Few weeks before the phone broke down, i noticed that the LED indicator wouldn't go off even after i'd plug out the charger. I felt its an update issue or something.
One day I set an Alarm for 7 A.M. That morning at 7 A.M the phone made a loud beep and it switched off. It followed the entire day(until now). Whenever i'd get a call the phone would switch off. Even a message beep would turn the phone off. So i kept the phone in silent mode. Any audio from the speaker would result in the phone switching off. However audio over earphones had no problem.
Later that evening SIM card slot 1 stopped working. SIM slot 2 was working fine.
Next day i tried connecting my phone with the PC via USB , but it wouldn't detect the phone. I tried updating the PC drivers and what not but nothing helped. Following evening SIM card slot 2 stopped working as well. After lot of hard work somehow the phone was detected. Not very often, but sometimes the PC detects the phone.
Phone takes lot of time charging, and discharges quickly.
Please note : All the problems occurred one after the other as i mentioned (sequentially).
Could you please tell me what could be the core problem? Is it the chip set?
I'll visit the service center, but i'd like to know what could possibly be wrong before i hand them the phone.

Hello,
I received the YotaPhone 2 (YD206) today.
The box was sealed.
When I tried to turn on the phone, it didn't start. I thought it was empty so I put in on charger for 2 hrs.
After that I tried again , but still nothing happened -- i was holding power button multiple times, as long as 5 minutes at the time, but there was simply no response -- no vibration, no sound, screen remains black (not turned on), anything at all.
I tried different chargers as well (Xiaomi and Samsung one) -- they weren't working with this phone either.
When I connect phone to a PC, I just hear sound that something is connected (I saw installing drivers notice first time I connected it), but nothing happens at all. I don't see the phone in my computer or anywhere else.
Is there way I can fix this somehow? What else can I try?
Thanks!
You can try unlocking the bands like described here.
Not sure it will help but you can at least try.

Sounds like the phone is defect. The only thing I can think of is that it somehow freezed up and you will need to let the battery drain so all power is off the phone and then try to recharge it. Draining the phone completly without screen use can take up to 7 days.
I finally managed to turn it on,by keeping it on charger for whole day and night and after a couple of attempts it was on.
I thought battery voltage was pretty low which prevented it from turning on.
I used a phone for a day, completely discharged it and then recharged it to 100% again. I thought everything is gonna be good now.
Then I wanted to upgrade to Lollipop, I decided to use YotaFlasher to flash EU KitKat first, and that worked fine. After that, I used OTA update to download Lolipop.
Download finished, and I was offered to "restart device and apply update", but as soon as I confirmed, the device went off and I can't turn it on anymore. What the heck is happening with this yotaphone? (battery was at 97%)
I can't turn it on, restart, put in download or recovery mode, get it to charge or get the screen on. Also PC don't recognize it *AT ALL* -- not even sound that something is connected. It looks completely dead (again).
Any ideas what I can do to fix my new problem?
