[Q] Desire bootloop,can't access adb/fastboot/recovery - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
I dropped my phone 2 days ago and couldn't turn it back on.
The weirdest thing is that it fell off like 30 CMs.
I checked if anything broke of inside or disconnected,but nope,nothing did.
I can only turn it on(with bootloop ofc) when plugged to USB.
There's only a splashscreen (HTC Desire),PC doesn't recognize it at all.
If I try to access bootloader/fastboot,it loops again (the bootloader/fastboot).
Any ideas or maybe any more info I'd have to provide for the diagnosis?

Install gb ruu.

Is there a link to installing the RUU? Will this remove any custom rom and loss of data?

one x doesn't turn on, charge, or go into recovery.

as title says. last night I was simply watching a movie when i noticed the handset was very very hot, which is weird as it wasn't doing anything too stressing, i figured id let it cooldown abit, not two seconds after the video stopped, the audio went all messed up. I turned it off manually, and it restarted all normally. it happened again, although it wasn't particularly hot, however this time I did not manually restart it, I figured id wait to see if it sorts itself out. Instead it turned off. And it refuses to power on, charge or even go into boot. No idea, what's wrong.

Got that twice with ma HOX...trust me...just plug on wall charger and leave it for a while (30mins or so) and when LED starts to flash, try to boot your device again.
i will try
This is weird but yeah I left in charge for about 12± hours, started flashing about a few mins ago and it's working perfectly. Pretty sure my phone is possessed. So yeah leave it in charge until it flashes.
Btw I'm not doing much, and it's already getting a bit warm, anything I can do to make my phone handle more? Is there a way to under clock this?

HELP
No idea then, motherboard may be dead if that's how unresponsive it is. If you have warranty send it off for repairs. Can you get into recovery? How about plugging it into a laptop/computer?

that sounds very bad
Has anyone tried this?
I had the same problem, no warranty because I unlocked it. Got it back, and found this topic.
Note: It can happen you need to try different pc/notebooks before it charges. I had to switch to 3 different pc s.

Do not talk nonsense, do not lose the warranty if the unlocked bootloader, but this board is dead aniway , nothing can see. Send to the service and solve the problem.

First time I need help, and it's a big one and hope it a positive result.
I come from viper 2.1.0
I wiped 3 times everythnig. Installed CM10 v8. then google addons, than entered fastboot and instal boot.img than erased....
Booted into android made preliminary input. started to download files and restored my old apps from google play. Whet to settings than from settings I pulled down status bar.
HOX frozze and than I presed the power button and thas' it.
NOW it does not wake up, even if I put the power cord in no lights go ON, nothing. It's like a BRICK.
Anyone any ideas.
you guys think if I send this to reapir and play stupit that thay will now that i had unlocked bootloader

HOX rebooting every 2 seconds

Hi there.
Erm... It seems like I lost it.
It's rebooting every 2, sometimes 3 to 5 seconds. I can't do anything, and reaching the bootloader doesn't keep it alive. Battery was fine, 70% the last time I saw, less than a hour ago. Putting it in the charger didn't make any difference as well.
I managed to reach "power off" in bootloader, waited a few minutes and tried again, but it didn't work. Also, After I turn it off like this, it only returns to the rebooting state if I connect it to a power source.
Anything I can do?
Now, if I try using volume up or down, It'll just go between the HBOOT - FASTBOOT sets of options, thus I can't reach "POWER OFF" anymore.

Plug in phone to PC. Open CMD and navigate to fastboot folder. Type adb reboot-bootloader. Wait a few seconds then type in fastboot erase cache. Worth a try anyways!

Since adb requires detecting my phone, this obviously do not work.
I really mean "2 seconds". Here is a video of it:
Once it runs out of battery, connecting to the computer might work.

How did you manage to do it? It worked again or gave you a chance after the battery depleted as apallohadas suggested?
I left it charging for a while on the computer and then flashed the ruu.. u need to have HTC sync installed on ur computer else it wouldnt recognize ur device
Sent from Mars
I left it alone rebooting itself until it stopped - seemingly out of battery.
Put it on the computer and it's just rebooting again, like before.
Maybe something oxidated inside?
I can fix it. But only on custom ROMs. Why? Because it's propably boot.img problem. I had it too, when flashed wrong boot.img in Sense ROMs. Try to reflash the RUU.

Nope, you clearly didn't see the video and read the issue. If I have only a 3-second time window, and bootloader does NOT work, and nothing manages to make the phone keeps itself on for more than 3 seconds, how can a RUU be flashed, since a computer CAN'T detect it during such primordial boot step?

REALLY improbable, but I'm not discarding the possibility. For me not to notice, it shouldn't have been much at least.
If it happened, it's down, right?
Dunno but might be time to call HTC.

What happens when you plug the phone in? Does the green/orange led light up? If it does what color? Best case scenario, you have a bad cable or a bad adaptor and your phone wasn't charging. Worst case, fried board, dead battery or dead screen (phone is on, just the screen isn't lighting up).
The orange or green light dont come on soo what now??

You can try hooking it up to a PC and see if the PC can still find your phone. But from the sounds of it, it maybe a hardware failure somewhere. I would contact HTC if it's under warranty to have it repaired.
I ahd the same problem, dead - even power did not help
Try putting it on power overnight.
I hvae it in service for now, (but I used CM10 - and it broke down) I just hope the service will not have any problems with it and don't see it, for changing my hole motherboard

After having rooted it did they fix it?
Just flashed Ice Cold Jelly and rebooted but I seem to have no power to the unit now.
Obviously the bootloader is unlocked and it is rooted so I wasn't sure if they'd even work on it or what it would cost to do so. It is still under warranty.
When you connect the phone to a pc and it comes up as APX = Hardware failure ! As far as i know there is no fix for this
They changed my motherboard and I got it back . Didn't have to pay nothing.

Found it.
I tryed everything, nothing worked.After the JB update the hox only shows his logo.
Last time i let him receive the big JB update, but before installing it i made a copy to update.zip on the root of the sd.
Then after installing the update and again only showing the htc logo, i rebooted in the recovery and used custom recovery to write the boot again. Now everything works .
Thx anyway.
Keep up the good work here:good::good::good:

lol you bricked your phone by installing an ROM meant for the international One X, not the dual core version.
HTC one international ICJ bricked
Hi all,
Please forgive me if I've done something wrong posting here, I'm new here and I'm trying to post in the most relevant forum.
I have the international HTC One X (Tegra 3 etc) and Ive been using Ice Cold Jelly for a while. Yesterday I flashed Ice Cold 2.2 (the one meant for the international) with all the recommended wipes using TWRP. The phone worked fine for about 10 mins then froze with a messed up screen. I tried to reboot but it froze again during the reboot and hasn't turned on since. There's no LED at all when it's plugged in charging to any power source and it won't boot up no matter what I do.
I've done my best to search for solutions but to no avail, any advice anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!:fingers-crossed:

Thanks for the quick response!
It doesn't seem to be recognised by any operating system at all - as in the operating systems can't see it. There's no notification of hardware failure or even a device being connected.
What happends when you hold the power button and the volume - button together for a long time.....say like 30 seconds

Yeah that's the only thing that can happen, keep it on the charger or pc usb connection....hope it comes back to life !
I have a same problem, My htc one is bricked when I went to update it to the latest orginal android via gprs, my battery had 40% charge and the updating process was on 75% and it is turned off, now when i connect it to the windows 8 the windows tell me something connected to usb but I can not access to anything on my phone and the phone not charging via charger....
Is here anyone to tell me how to fix it or is it fixable or not please?

Repair bricked phone

Hi everybody!
I have an almost 2 years old DHD which I think is completely bricked. It was working for approximately one years perfectly and then suddenly it stopped working. Whenever I tried to turn it on, it only vibrated once and did nothing more. Sometimes it turned on and these working periods were enough to restore to stock condition (It was rooted and had Eng S-OFF before.). I had brought it to service and they said they was not going to repair it as the device got water damaged. I'm pretty sure it was not! After a few weeks, it started working again. I was using it for 3 months then it bricked again and it's the situation today as well.
Previous week I looked into the development thread and saw all of these new amazing roms. So I took my DHD to see if it's working or not. The situation is the same. Everytime I power it on, the phone only vibrates once and nothing happens. I'm not able to get into hboot mode. At some very rare occassions the phone turns on and works flawlessly till reboot. When I connect it with USB, the computer doesn't recognize it. Battery is charged, I even tried another battery.
Does anybody know what happens with the phone? I'm open to any possible solutions to try. Please don't suggest to bring it to service or repair it, because I have another phone, just want to try to recover it and ask your ideas about the problem.
Thanks in advance!
Greetings,
Adam
So you say you cant enter in fastboot or recovery?
Since it's intermittent, my guess is it is a hardware problem. Some kind of bad contact/loose connection. Make sure everything looks good on your battery door and the battery contacts inside the phone.

Wrong sub forum buddy, post in the One V Forum.
Its possible that there isn't "water damage", but there could be moisture getting into the phone causing it to act erratic. To cancel out that possibility, submerge it in a closed container full of rice for a few days

[Q] Help! I may have bricked my 5210.

I recently purchased a GT-P5210 and was working on rooting it. I was so close to finishing and I figured out I needed an SD-Card to root it.
I got an SD-Card and tried to boot in Recovery. It was not working! It was just shutting the tablet off as it booted up. I realized this after 3 times of it happening, then I did it one more to see if it really was just turning off. Now it wont turn on anymore!
So what I did was turn off the tablet 4 times in a row as it was booting up and now it's bricked.
What can I do?
Edit: I did all this as it was connected to the PC. It won't even charge now either.
At one point I saw the battery on the screen from trying to boot it in recovery and I think it was one more time of trying to boot it in recovery that it would not respond to turning on or charging anymore.
Try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and reconnecting it. This has worked for me under similar circumstances. Check YouTube for a video first, but it's really not to hard and there are no screws to remove to get the back off and get to the battery.
Sent from my GT-P5210 using XDA Premium HD app
All right I will do that, I was afraid to do it in the first place because it looked very difficult to remove the back. I will get back to here after I have done so.
Got it open! MAN was that a pain. Okay, now to figure out how to get this sophisticated battery out.
Got it out and put it in. Now is working. THANK YOU!!!
