HTC S620 Does Not Start Up.

Okay, so my friend gave me his phone 'HTC S620' as he was getting a new one. After a month, it just didn't start up anymore it was left on the BT screen after the Windows one. I tried pressing the camera button and all that rubbish, ActiveSync does not recognise it.
HELP!

Bump please help.

Bumped again, guess noone likes to help.

Do not bump, wait for an answer, you could have had one now but your impatience has actually annoyed me, we do not get payed to help so the least you can do is be patient and wait for an answer.
2 x bump in less than 2 x hours.

Glad I was not the only one thinking that. Each bump costs 8 hours.....

So do you mean u start the phone up HTC comes up an then gets locked at the Windows Mobile screen ?

HTC
It goes past the Windows Mobile screen, then goes onto a BT screen, and on that BT screen, it freezes.

[Q] [bricked] truly bricked : /

epic is showing NO SIGNS OF LIFE!! screen is black .. wont boot into download or recovery .. not charging either : (
did i really brick my first phone : //
help!
if i take it to sprint tomorrow will they be able to tell i've had about 1891238302942 different roms on it?? lol

it shouldn't matter if you don't tell them that because if they reset your phone, everything is gone LOL! so SHHHHH

sooo what do you tell them when they ask what happened??
im such a terrible liar : / lol

Did you try taking the battery out plugging in usb then boot into download mode? Seems to work when this happens.

oh yes. i've pressed every variation of 1, 9 (read that somewhere, forgot where) volume up and down, camera, pressing and holding the power button for 10 secs, pulling battery/pressing power twice/battery up and power on .. still no life for the little guy : /
he is on the charger though (with no little red light) and its warm like its charging ..

Happened to me with the ef02 leak...just take it to sprint if u have insurance its free....have fun waiting lol

U did try to boot into download mode with no battery, correct? If so, it does seem to be bricked. That blows rat nutts...... sorry to hear that

im a terrible liar and V E R Y impatient .. this probably wont go well. especially since i have no phone to play on while waiting : // lol

yes : ( and its been well over an hour, probably two. guess i'll try again in the morning. cause tomorrows a new day, right? and everything will be all better : ) lol

Just tell them you took it out of your pocket and it was really warm and wouldn't respond.

Pull the SD card out and try booting into download mode (1 key + power button).

mine bricked also i told sprint that when i was starting my phone it it dropped and the battery fell out. I am now currently using a lg rumor the first one while I wait for my replacement. I get to tinker with my bricked epic till it comes in I have been trying everything I can find. still no luck but what can you do but to wait for the shiny new epic beauty. 1 thing interesting is the rumor's ciq version is 3.1.4 and still has a prl of 50555

do the lights come on?
the bottom back light keys as qbking would say
And if still have lights then you may be able to bring it back

nope .. none of the lights come on or anything. went to sprint at 1230, was out by 1240 .. new phone will be here tuesday.
i was pleasantly surprised with sprints customer service. they used to make me want to K I L L them : ) lol

wow i thought i was officially joining this club for people who truly bricked their phones, lol.
however as i was reading this thread i read this:

the paperclip thing actually worked as far as getting the phone back into download mode
am trying to reflash the ef02 software package, hopefully i can get it online this time, lol.
but yeah, i had no lights, no response, complete black screen, multiple variations of battery in/out and usb plugged/unplugged while pressing a variety of different buttons... and still nada...
but the paperclip thing worked, AND my phone just finished flashing efo2 as we speak, and now i am happy, lol.
cause i was sad, very sad, very very sad, boo, boo hoo, boo hoo hoo.
but i am good now, thanks

Can you get into hboot?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

No,I can't..it still be dead

try a different battery if u can, if that dont work then its probably dead. Same happened to mine, my phone was charging and i dropped it then it never turned back on (it didnt brake from dropping it, overheated while charging)

i'll try the original one..'cause i bought a while ago a mugen power battery bigger than the stock one....but the mess is that i haven't done anything to the phone..it simply "suicided" himself!that's weird!

I used a different battery..but nothing to do..still dead...:crying:..anything else to do?

Your motherboard might be roasted.

I actually just came to make a thread, about the exact same problem I cant turn my desire on charging doesn't respond tried a new battery at a store. Prior to this happening I was at a beach and my phone took a dip for 10 seconds, phone never stopped working the led light was red from there on worked for at least a month or so after before this.
I was thinking it was connected to that but maybe not, I was wondering if maybe the phone some how bricked. It's a silly question but I shall ask any ways is there any possibility of restoring stock ruu via the computer? I'm no expert on that guess the phone wouldn't be detected tho.
The only thing I can make the phone do is occasionally when holding the power down the phones gets stuck vibrating till I pull the battery.

You can't flash a RUU without the phone booting in hboot.

Oh well thanks, I wonder how common it is for phones to just die. My general thinking was so long as I didn't drop it or the beach lol it would last ages which it did, previously had a iphone 3g which apples updates killed the wifi then the battery died, now I'm torn between the LG Optimus 4X HD or a Ipod Touch 5th gen, actually this seems really good value for money BWC Thunderbolt Dual SIM which is available on mobicity.c0m.a-u It's kinda like dunno Chinese generic brand running Jellybean 4.1.2 only reason I probably wouldn't buy it probably wouldn't ever be rooted or updated by manufacturer otherwise I would get it

You wanna buy an iPod????????? Seriously?????????????

Well I'm not all to caught up in the one or the other boat all seem to get aboard on, I already brought a new phone average. I was looking to buy a ipod bare amount I was willing to spend just for getting on the net when out music games reading then figured 4.7 inch to 5 inch screens would be better for reading, and there's only one or two other options in that price range. Dunno if I will or wont now but I was recently looking at ubuntu for phones which may be out end of year or next year, seems interesting going to have to wait to see how that unfolds

u know when u have it plugged into ur computer and the LED is on, then u press the power button, does it vibrate? if ur phone is off and its charging, the LED will be on and if u boot into bootloader (with the phone still plugged in) the LED turns off. so maybe ur screen is damaged and u cant see that its on. u get me?? lol. check if ur computer recognizes ur phone once uv pressed the power button

Nothing happens..the computer does not recognise the phone......ok so..someone have a nexus 4 to sell?

Brand new Note 8.0 Wont turn on

Hey everyone,
I bought my 8.0 this afternoon (was looking at tablets and saw a lot of good things mentioned here so i took the plunge) and its not turning on. When I turned it on for the very first time, it stayed on the Samsung screen for a long time (i would say 10+ minutes). I know from my other Samsung products that it usually doesnt take that long to boot up, even for the first time, so I hit the power button to restart it and its hasnt turned on since. Has anyone heard of anything like this before? By the time everything happened Best Buy was closed so I will take it back tomorrow for them to look at but I was hoping someone may know whats the issue and I wouldnt have to return it. Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it has enough charge? Try plugging it in for a while.

If you find that there is enough of a charge If I were you I would just have it replaced especially since you're starting off on such a bad note.

Thanks guys for responding.....ya i have been letting it charge since i first made this post and its still not turning on. Ill just have BB swap it out

First one I grabbed yesterday had LCD leakage ( like someone put a lot of pressure) in the upper left corner. Swapped it out no problems. Second one looks like its good lol.

Try Samsung support chat
If you are getting desperate, you might try Samsung support. They have a chat service and the helper may be able to get it going. If you hold down the power and volume up (or is it down) buttons for 15 seconds, you might get the reboot menu. But I would connect with Samsung's 24/7 chat help and see if maybe they can help.

Yup. I was on the Flyer forum a decent amount.

Ltd leakage seems to be almost normal you're never gonna get a perfect screen. My nexus 7 had it my note 8 has it a little but it's only noticeable on black screens...which I don't encounter much. So bleh

Unexplainable issues with booting and flashing

Dear XDA-overlords,
the last time I askeed your help was during my odyssey with the HTC HD2 and I recveived great help.
So once again - I reuiere your knowledg sine I don*t know much about the LG G3.
My smartphone: LG G3 D851
ROM: CandySiX-d85x
The issue: the sim-card reader is most def. dead. So I took the liberty to remove the tiny metal-plate to take a closer look at the pins for the sim-card-reader. (One pin was broken, guess thats at fault). But the main-story unfolds just at this moment. Ever since I did that, my smartphone stopped booting properly.
I can flash every rom, it works just fine at th e first-start. But if I restart the phone, it's more or less a gamble if the phone will start up properly or end up in a blackscreen after the LG logo. If the phone starts (in like 2 out of 10 attempts) it works perfectly fine. My only hope is, that the battery is at fault since I bought the phone used and that damned thing dischargers in less than 2 hours from 100 to 0%,
So, does anyone have the slightes idear whats wrong with the phone? Everything worked perfectly up to yesterday. Ever since, everything has gone to ****s.
Best regards,
Zakkusu

bump!

What do you mean by "bump" ?

Bumping is simply put to put the thread at the top again. Most forums allow that once a day (24 hours)
At least I'm not the only one with this issue. Perhaps there is a solution to this already. My new battery will arrive tomorrow, I dearly hope, that this is the source of the problem.
