i was watching youtube and it crashed
i had a profile for overheating with higher priority than the charging one help
can i unroot it or something

What do you mean by "won't turn on"? Is it stuck at the bootscreen?

no it stays as black screen light wont even turn on

Any chance your battery fell out? I have had that happen a few times where I had to clean the contacts and put it back.

Can you boot into recovery? Hold down power and volume down whilst phone is off.

Does it go into recovery when you plug in a USB cable or charger? If you can you try plugging it into your computer, and if you have ADB installed, type
adb devices (your device should show up)
adb reboot

This worked for me when my G2 didn't wanna boot up.

That is a tamper sticker, you need to remove it to get access to a screw. Did you try to get in to recovery?

Try charging ur device, keep it with charger plugged in for hours...
in case that doesnt work u can boot into recovery...

ok now i got it into recovery

HELP! i think i bricked my new galasy s 2

i just bought the tmobile galaxy s 2 and was trying to root it. obviously i did something wrong and now its stuck on a black screen. it will not power on AT ALL and when i plug it into the usb it looks for driver QHSYSB_DLOAD. ive tried everything someone please help. i will pay someone to fix my phone if i have to
You need to get in download mode and odin back to stock. Pull battery and put back in. Go to different computer, win XP works best, download/install drivers on PC then plug phone in to PC and download mode should come up.

Also you may have to hold both volume buttons down. It works both ways with and without volume buttons. Search threads how to get in download mode.

It's bricked. I had the same thing happen a few days ago. Just take it back to the T-mobile you bought it from (assuming you bought in-store) and they'll replace it. Seeing your phone recognized as that "QHSYSB_DLOAD" device seems to be an issue with Qualcomm CPUs and happens mainly to HTC phones for obvious reasons. From the hours of research that I did before returning my phone, no one has ever successfully recovered from that kind of brick.
i bought it used so tmobile wont replace it. BUT i registered the phone on samsungs website and it says its still in warranty with them. do you think samsung could replace it?
Yeah I'd do that. They should be able to help you out as long as you don't say you were trying to root it lol. Yours won't vibrate or anything when you press the power button right?
nope it doesnt vibrate. what do you think of this?

Yup, mine wouldn't vibrate either. The only sign of life was when it was plugged into the PC in an attempt to get into download mode. I read that when you get to the point where the phone can't even get into download mode properly(showing the usual warning about custom OSes, that the jig device won't work, unfortunately. It may be worth a shot though if the price is right.
just shipped out to samsung. hopefully they dont realize why its broken and try to charge me for it

[Q][Urgent] Wildfire Died?

Well I rooted my htc wildfire and overclocked it.
Everything seemed to work fine for a few months
and then...
I got a text message, and I responded to it, but I did also see that my battery was almost empty, then after responding, I putted my phone in my pocket, Then like 15 minutes later, I looked at my phone and it didn't do anything anymore, so I thought, my battery ran out, nothing to worry about then I got home, plugged in my phone... led didn't turn on... phone didn't charge. I was like damn, maybe my battery died? So I went outside to someone who also has a Wildfire and asked if I could try his battery, We switched batteries and my phone still didn't work
Does anyone know how i can fix this? my phone doesn't respond to ANYTHING I've tried
These symptoms are a bad omen.
Does it pick anything up plugging it into a computer?

Than that would be the first wildfire thats been bricked AFAIK
Maybe it's a hardware issue, something as motherboard or CPU or maybe the connector for the lcd screen has become loose

lol, how can it be bricked if I used the root for a few months and didn't change anything to it for a while?
also @lcd poster
if it was my lcd, my led should still turn on when inserting the phone to a power connection
also I do also think it is something with my mainboard/cpu, i've read on the internet that i'm not the only one with a phone that just doesn't respond to anything anymore (wildfire) even others who hadn't rooted their phone got this issue, although they have garrantuee :s
sorry for my bad english
Anyhow its great u r not bricked bt if u have damaged CPU so do u have warranty/guarantee?

Rooted and overclocked, I don't think my warranty is still valid?
Yes your warranty is void. But, if you were on a Stock / Sense based ROM, you *may* be lucky and the service guys may not notice.

But maybe they won't start repairing it and give me just a new one, (since it's more expensive to repair the phone then to give me a new one i guess) and then they'll won't notice either?
also, if I do bring back my phone and they find out about it, will they charge me for the repairing costs? even if I don't want it to be repaired if it will cost me? (I already bought an iphone now, but sometimes i just want to experiment back with my android xd)
I really can't answer that mate. Policies vary widely across stores and nations. But, don't hold your breath for a new one, I think that case is extremely unlikely. I guess your best bet is to give them the phone, and have them contact yo regarding it's situation, repairs, and costs (if any) after their preliminary inspection / assessment. Only after their assessment, you give the go ahead to repair / replace (If free ).

HTC and Apple don't roll the same way.
Apple's products aren't even worth repairing, thus they don't bother doing that.
it might be an lcd problem this thing also happened to me...
I know quite a few friends of mine who had similar issues with other HTC devices and they just went to the shop and they were given new ones in a short time. usually guys at the customer service are ignorant and don't check for anything, even if in your situation it should be impossbile to know which rom you're mounting.
my advice is go there and have a brand new wildfire, nobody will discover it's without warranty
Mabye its static?
Once my brothers netbook had a static build up causing a problem i dunno if the same rules apply but try: take out battery -> hold power on for around 30secs, If that didnt work try getting into bootloader holding vol down and power on when your phones off
Hope my ideas worked and that your wildfires better
I have same problems
When i trying root my HTC device ... there are something wrong... so it can't boot after rooting.
I think that it was bricked.

[Q] S-Off Desire completely dead, safe to send back to reseller?

Hello,
While I was using my mobile it switched off and I couldnt open it again. I tried everything, battery pull and all kind of boots but nothing..
Even when i am connecting it with usb for charching the light doesnt turn on.
Did you heard any similar issue?
My phone is S-OFF but there is no way to connect to phone and restore it for warranty purpose... So if i send it to reseller and the phone is completely dead there is any possibility to find that is S-OFF? (I will try to format the SD Card.)
noones help? :S
You can't access safe boot and boot loader?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
happened to me, it's dead. Call HTC and claim warranty.
no fastboot no recovery no blinking lights nothing. I will call HTC. I think that is a short circuit or something. It doesnt even blinking in charging mode. Do you think that is possible for HTC to check that the phone is S-OFF ?
they can see if it is S-OFF if they want.
So do you think that I should recover it back to S-On ? If yes is it possible? From what i read in Q/A Thread there is no way..

I Think I Bricked My Phone.. Any Advice?

Hey guys . I Picked up a three month old galaxy this morning. I have had problems rooting before but always managed to fix them but this I cannot figure out. Here is exactly what I did and what happened.
1.First I rooted my phone using GalaxyS3RootUSCanadaMac.
2. Downloaded the following, superuser, ezunlock, and rom manager.
3. Flashed clokworkrecovery through rom manager.
4. Unlocked the bootloader with ezunlock
5. Tried to reboot into recovery via clockwork and it would just hang and never reboot.
6. Decided to do a restart , so I clicked power on the right hand side and selected restart.
7. Fell asleep and woke up to a dead phone.
I cannot get it to boot at all , not even in download mode. I get no lights or vibrations when trying to boot. If I remove the battery and hook the usb cord in I get a red light at the top but not with the battery in.
Any info on what I might have done wrong or what I can try to do to fix it would be great.
Thanks in advance guys.

This is completely inapplicable to the i747m, and the reason your phone's bricked.
Unless you can somehow get into download mode, you're going to need a JTAG to recover it.

I believe I read about someone else who used this. The unlocker is made for the Verizon variant. You will need JTAG service to get your phone up and running.

Desire GSM bricked

Phone got bricked. Only when removing battery and inserting, then plugging in charger ... The led lights orange. Or else, when turning on ..no screen, no vibration. Only the led turns of when in charger.
No fastboot. I have tried RUU, but its just searching for device. Then an error massage. Because it can't find the device.
All drivers are installed on computer.
Phone is rooted and s-off.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Well... you somehow burned your motherboard. No fix with adb for that.
Indeed... Had the same problem after a while with random reboots and stuff. Last 'solution' for me was to put the phone about 15 minutes in the freezer, after that I was able to flash the RUU. Next morning it was dead again.
The phone got a new motherboard, no problems anymore.

The motherboard isnt burned. i think its kinda usb bricked... since the computer wont recognize it when plugget in. the phone is charging well...
im pretty sure there is something wrong with the HBOOt/rado.. since my girlfriend pulled out the battery while in hboot.
