Ive looked through all the post that I thought was related so here is my problem.
Last night for no apparent reason my phone reset itself and I got the tri color screen (is that the boot screen) nothing would work.
Ive reflashed the phone dozens of times.
It works but after boot it goes to tri color screen, pulling the battery out, putting it back in and resetting with the usb cord in works. If I turn off the phone and turn it back on without without it plugged in I get the tri colored screen.
So basically if the phone turns off it has to be plugged into the computer or ac adapter for it not go to the tri colored screen, which I only found out by accident.
Things Ive tried:
- Ive unlocked the CID and Sim with "HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock - v3a"
- Then put "Black Satin" windows mobile 6 on my phone.
Thought that would help but still the same result.
Anyone got anytips phone works but its so annoying knowing that there is problem on it frustrates me.
Actually I just tried turning it off and on with an ac adpater it doesnt work, only works if its plugged in a pc with a usb cord.

Hello all, recently my Orbit screen was broken and was replaced today. Problem is however i've encountered some problems...in that when loading it passes the O2 splash screen, then goes to Windows Mobile green splash screen and stops there. Tried reset many times, not getting anywhere. Another problem is that it will not connect to my computer, i'm thinking it cant be the connector as the phone when plugged into charge charges (led lights up).
Any wise ideas of wisdom?
Thanks
Simon
it would appear that a hard reset has just done the trick! yey
Of usually i search and search until I find an answer but I have now idea what to do...
-T-Mobile Dash with a Cingular Sim running Kavanna 6.1 (and kavanna has ran fine on it for the most part)
-Phone randomly froze (wouldnt let me type a text msg)
-Powered off
-Went to power it back on and nothing -no lights, no nothing
-Tried the two softkeys and power button for two seconds
-Tried te camera button and power button
-Pulled batter multiple times and pulled all cards from it
-When it is plugged into a wall I dont even get a power charging light....

Not if your battery is completely waste it. Check if your battery pins in your dash make full contact with your battery, because that can cause a problem (very odd, but it happens). If not, try another battery.
Have you checked your charger, I guess is damaged because if your battery is damaged or if is no battery at all and you connect the charger the led will turn red.
sam happened w me, no solution yet
hate to tell you that you might have bricked your phone,
the same happened to my excalibur, when i tried to flash it -mistakenly- with the wrong rom,
thing is; the rom is controlling the power charging process and the battery support to the device, if something went wrong with the rom for any reason; then no instructions are sent to the battery neither the charger, therefore: no power sign of any in the device.
i couldn't find an answer to fix my dash, but i think the solution is either changing the rom or JTAG-ing it might solve the problem, though i have no tools neither knowledge to do so.
sorry pal, the bright side is: you are a member of (BDC) the Bricked Dash Club
cheers

With the information provided it hasn't been your same case due that he hasn´t flashed any other rom, so basically he can try another battery and see what happens.
errrrrr
New Battery - Still no lights and using the reset features found in the unbricking tutorial do not work.
Tried using a cable from my comp to give power to phone so it isnt power cable
So what now? I cant even get to a bootloader screen or anything.... I cant afford a new phone ERRR
**Update-
Was plugging in the USB cable and looks like it gets a connection only when it is plugged in a little but this not just at the end that connects to the phone (it happened when the phone was already plugged into the cable and I was plugging it into the comp and vice versa) Um so that is strange - the light does not stay on and when the battery is in the phone I do not get that quick red flash - so it still doesnt work and cant do anything

Maybe is your USB port causing the problem.
Hey guys,
Something really strange is going on with my USB port on my Note 4 Dev edition. All of a sudden USB stopped working, when connected to a PC, it would only charge, but no Data whatsoever. After trying to connect it to a bunch of different PCs, different cables, restoring to old nandroid, nothing worked. When plugging in the power cord when the phone was off, the phone would flash a gray battery logo and then it would go away, not charging the phone. I read online somewhere, to try holding down, power and home while the gray battery icon flashed, and it did actually start charging again! However, data was still broken. I read somewhere else that someone said to pull the battery while in download mode, which I did, but that seems to have disabled it again, and now the same trick before is not even getting charging functionality back.
I am really at a loss, I am positive I need to do something in Odin mode to get things back together, but I've tried all these combinations and nothing is working. Odin in Windows will currently not detect anything either, so I am in trouble here. Any ideas?

Just curious do you have security ie password,fingerprint or swipe activated for your lock screen?
Hello All,
I had about 40% battery yesterday evening and in the morning I found phone turned off.
Tried to turn on - no luck.
Plug to the wall charger - a red light appeared and started blinking in a loop (3s red, 1s pause, 3s red etc.)
Tried with different charger - same as above.
Conected to laptop through USB - red light as normally when charging but no battery icon and scrren still black. Tried to turn on and blinking come back.
I left on charging for a while and tried hard reset (power button + volume up) - nothing.
Tried also a magic reset buttonnear the SIM card slot it vibrates 3 times but it didn't turn on
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Try to charge your phone using the wall charger for at least one full day. If that still doesn't work, try getting into fastboot mode(Vol up while inserting USB into PC), and check if you get a fastboot device. If so, try reflashing the stock via flashmode. If not, I think your battery is dead.
(I had an issue like that on my N4 once, but never on my X1C.)
Hello Jayc94,
If Max1220 tips doesn't work, just use the warranty.
I had the same issue as you, and i sent it back 3 times, using the warranty. As far as i remember, you don't have to pay anything.
My advice, when you get it back from the repair shop, in the package, you have an intervention report. Check exactly what they did. Follow their procedure to reboot your phone, and see what happens few days after.
For me, one week after they sent me back the phone, the same issue was happening again, until the 3rd time. At that time, intervention reports shows they changed battery and antenna, with some other stuff. Until now, i don't have any issue again..
I wih you good luck.
cmartinez.

Nothing helps..?
(I will post this also here, cos no one answered @ zukfans yet)
Hi! I think I need to ask help now.
I've managed to hard brick my Z2 with QFIL trying to update the phone from zui 2.something to 3.5. Well obviously that did not end up good.
My phone went to a stage described in some cases: White light blinking every 15 seconds or something and phone vibrating. Ok, I tried to shut the phone down by keeping and releasing after second blink. Did not work. Then I tried to hold for two or more minutes. It seemed to work first but suddenly also that didnt work (kept power pushed for ten minutes or more). Ok, the I made the cable described here. I did a jumper cable from my usb extension cord. Windows reacted to the phone but did not recognize it. Nothing showed up in device manager or QFIL or MiFlash. The phone keeped on vibrating and a left it like this for the night. I guess battery ran out and phone finally shutdown.
I continued and same results. One time windows recognized a unknown device for some seconds but it did not show up in device manager or MiFlash. After that nothing. Now the phone only blinks the light. It vibrates only when trying to charge it or plugged in PC. I don't now if it's on or not. Anyways, the same results with windows: reaction, but no recognition. I've tried to pull usb out and change to another slot etc.
Also I've installed Zuk 1.05 drivers, MiFlash and tried also with Qualcomm drivers. Uninstalled everything and tried again. Nothing seems to help.
Could this be because of Windows 7? Or bad extension cord? Or what...? Any advice would be appreciated.
edit: It was not Windows problem I guess. I installed fresh Windows 10 with no help. Actually worse. No Windows is not reacting at all. Maybe it's the jumper cable I created. I didn't want to ruin my only USB-C.
edit: Ok. Back to Win7. Now there is no reaction at all also in Win7. The phone vibrates when connected to pc. Otherwise phone seems to be off. No lights flashing. If power is held down white led flashes briefly but no vibration.
edit: Now if I connect the phone to laptop the led blinks every 0.5 seconds... I have no idea how turn the phone off. It seems to be off while not touched because nothing is happening...

Try this,just a copy paste
2.0). Turn off the phone. If the phone boots up (reboots) then immediately to point 2.1
2.1). Put wire on the 2nd contact on the left
. And together with the wire insert into the PC (at the same time the phone is already connected by cable).
2.2). After 5-10 seconds, take out the usb plug with the wire. Remove the wire and insert the plug back.
2.2.1). If you do not have a bootlap, but it hangs on MI, on the boot process, etc. Hold the POWER button and insert the USB plug with the wire into the usb port. The screen goes out and you get what you want.
3.1). Your device in EDL mode.
3.2). Click REFRESH in Miflash and see your device in COM format.
3.3). Flash firmware at your discretion.
Thanks for the instructions.
Still nothing. Windows 10 does not recognize the phone in any way. The phone vibrates almost immediately when plugged in. Then nothing. Sometimes (before) I got Windows to recognize it as "unknown device".
2.0 Turning off the phone. I'm unpluggin the battery. I guess that does the job? At least nothing is flashing or vibrating.
2.1 I inserted a paper clip as in the picture.
Dunno if it's a driver thing. I've installed different Zuk driver version, Qualcomm, MiFlash, QFil, ADB.. you name it. I've turned on the Test Mode in Windows (driver signature). I've tried two different cables. One of them is the original. Tried the paper clip trick and the wire connect trick. Nothing is working. There has to be some flaw that I'm not noticing. Can't be the only one who really got his phone bricked...
About the drivers:
Ive installed zuk 1.05. Is it ok? Tried also 1.06 and 1.08.
How to install ADB. I've used ADB installer and installed system-wide. Should I also install the device driver (Google)?
Qualcomm drivers. Cannot manually install. With Miflash etc. some Qualcomm drivers get installed.
Do I need to install Fastboot and ADB "executables"? Where do I need these in my situation? Nowhere?
What abou QFIL? Is it necessary if I'm using MiFlash?

Ok. Just found out that the only 2.0 port is broken. There is no second pin. At least anymore. I might have broken it in some point.
Other reason for malfunctioning could be the circuit board of the phone. The previous owner in all his wisdom had glued the battery cover with super glue. As I opened it it ripped of some of those circuit materials that conduct electricity. The broken part is near the usb port of the phone. Maybe if I put the cover back it will work cos the ripped parts are still glued to the back cover..
So back to the issue.
The broken part of the phone seems to be speaker so it should not affect the connection I guess. I also fixed with conductive silver paint. Still, no help.
Just found out that the charger and probably also the cable are not original ones. Maybe this is the reason for this is not working. I cannot come up with any other solutions. Now I would need to know which usb cable would qualify for the procedure. How can tell which is a proper cable before buying it? Also does the micro-usb cable work if I have the convertor dongle (Samsung made)?
edit:
Ok. Sometimes the led blinks every 0.5 sec. Sometimes phone vibrates every fifteen or something seconds. Only way to get the computer to react is with modded usb extension cord -> green to black. This way Windows recognizes an unknown device. That's it. I cannot install Qualcomm drivers for this or do anything else. This way Windows makes this connected sound every 0.5 seconds and the phone led blinks. After a while it stops and the phone is marked as "unknown device". Also if I connect the phone to a charger it blinks all the time (0.5s) and vibrates occasionally. Then after a while the led calms down and blinks every 15 seconds. And then back to 0.5s with vibration. All these symptoms seem unclear and I haven't found anyone suffering from same kind of problems...
Really am I the first that really bricked this one? I didn't even use the phone yet. Just checked it and tried to update the system cos it was old version.
I assume that the phone has to be off after disconnecting battery cable so that should not be the problem here.
@narshi shukla
I turned the phone off by removing battery. It does not reboot after shut down before I connect it to computer. Few seconds after connecting to pc it vibrates shortly. Nothing else happens after that. Same with and without the wire.
I've tried so many different methods that I'm giving up with this I guess. Am I the only one who got his phone permanently bricked. After all I tried to flash by following instructions. The flash failed and phone went on crazy vibration and screen on for some seconds after that it was vibrating every 15 seconds. Then suddenly it stopped doing that. Now it does only if I plug it to pc or charger.
The "black green wire trick" is strange. If I only connect those two wires nothing new happens BUT if I connect green to black and black to green by tying instead only touching the phone vibrates and led blinks every 0,5 seconds and windows also makes the connection sound even though it is not working.
