[Q] Phone don't even turn on

Hi everyone !
Yesterday I was using my phone, and after a few minutes without using it, when I tried to wake it up, nothing happened ! The screen stays black all the time, and the charging LED light doesn't turn on too.
I don't understand, nothing happened to the phone (no fall or anything). And now it just seems ... dead !!!
Could someone help me ?
Thanks !
The phone is rooted with S-Off and a custom ROM ...

If you pull out the battery and place it back does it boot then?

Try pulling the battery and then replace it while holding both volume buttons and the power button.

If pulling the battery doesn't do it, it's probably really dead. I also once had a dead Desire, stopped working from one moment to the other. If there's warranty left, send it in.

Yes the phone is rooted since the first day
That's what i was thinking muellersmattes. The warranty is over since a few months

Your phone is dead.

That happened to my first desire hd. I had to take it in to vodafone for them to send off for repair :-(
Question : when you do take in for repair can they tell if you rooted it ?

Yeah clearly I think my phone is dead. I'll try to repair it and sell it.
Anyway, I bought a Galaxy S I9000, I hope it will last a bit longer !

I had two problems with my DHD. But to keep history short, I'll tell only the second:
My seemed bricked. It didn't power on and when I plugged the charger, the LED didn't turn on.
As I work with electronics, I measured the phone's battery and it had 0.0V. So, I took an adjustable power supply and charged the battery for 2 minutes with 3.7V.
I put the battery back in the phone, plugged the charger and the LED turned orange!
Perhaps you could try the same procedure...
And tomorrow I'll try to fix the 1st problem.

HOX Didn't Turn On

Last night I woke up in the middle of the night, checked my phone, and it wouldn't turn on. It was plugged into the charger, but no red led was on and it wouldn't turn on at all with the power button.
This morning when I woke up, the phone was back on charging with the red light and was able to turn on. My phone is rooted and flashed an upgraded rom + kernel. Can anyone explain why that happened?

oh! s*** same thing happened to me just now. i removed the charging cable tried pitting it in to the boot loader mode but nothing happened, suddenly red light started blinking when i was trying to power it on again and then it powered on and now its charging. i thought it was a loose connection but seems like some other issue. i am on insercoin rom.

That is in no way true. All of my devices are rooted and have been for ages, no issues. What's probably happened here is that the devices have overheated

That was the case with my unrooted, brand new HOX first time out of the box. It turned out the battery was so flat dead, the phone didn't manage to start.

I believe it was a kernel issue guys. I had just flashed a kernel that night and it probably had something to do with it.

Your battery might not have enough charge to boot. Leave it on charge for a few hours and then try. Report back your findings

i believe that is the case pal. but on the stock rom if the battery was completely flat to the floor then it takes a few minutes at least before it will boot again.

on cwm 4.0.1.4,phone gets charged when off ,led keeps lit even after disconnected from charger and it doesn't turn on unless battery pulled out.But for sure led doesn't blink in this case ,it keeps on steadily.
Edit-not sure what op means by red light flashing.If its continuously on then battery pull would solve the issue.

[Q] Bricked HOX?

Hello Members, First of all I just want to say that I tried almost everything and searched a lot on the Xda forums!
It started whit the new Venom 4.0.7. update. Never had any problems whit the Venom OTA updates but last night when I tried to install it, the little green andriod in recovery was just laying flat on it's back whit a red (!) above it.
Tried to install it manually but the same results. Soon after that my HOX began to have trouble with booting up and now it doesn't do anything. The only thing that it does is when I hook it up on my laptop that it bleeps and says that something is conected to the laptop and later in device manager I found out it says "APX".
No back lights from the screen or soft buttons, no red or green led.. Just nothing.
Now I've tried to install new drivers and that does somthing, the laptop recognizes its a phone but that's it. (no longer "APX") It says "NVIDEA USB Boot-recovery diver for mobile devices".
No I'm stuck Someone with the same problem and solved it? Or has anyone an idea how to fix it?
Hope to hear something soon from u guys!

APX is a dead hox, hardware failure. A new mainboard is the solution !

Maybe it's smart to say that every time (after the new update) it became harder and harder to enter recovery mode.. black screen took longer and longer before recovery came up.

Car Therms always work Thanks. So there's absolutely nothing I can do for my HOX anymore? (other than sending it to HTC for a new main board)

Nah not really, and all the phones that got out of apx died in the end again. It's all temporarily.
Some got it out of apx by rebooting it like 100 times and pressing button combos....to me it's pressing luck ! And it will come back 100%
So it's safe to say it's a dead end. Sorry

[Q] Is this one x just gone for good?

Hello, I'm new to this form. Okay so today I traded my galaxy note 1. For a nexus 4 and an HTC one x. I was really excited to see the one x for the first time. The one x is with AT&T. When I took it home and plugged it in the charger the red light on started to flash which I think means the battery doesn't have enough power yet, so I waited until it would be steady. But when I looked at it after about 10mins or so, there was no light at all. Unplugging and plugging back in didn't work. When plugged in for along time it just keeps flashing red for abit then stops (repeatedly). I can't power it on at all or go into bootloader.. Etc.. I've even tried doing the hold volume up and down with power button for 2 minutes, nothing.. So now I'm just thinking it's defective. But before I sent it to HTC to diagnose it, I wanted to see what you guys think it is and how I can possibly fix it. Now the person I got it from said it needed some kind of jtag fix for $50 but idk what this is at all. I'm just hoping to god it isn't the main board that is damaged. The bottom area where the soft buttons are is cracked but it's not serious. Another thing that I'm not sure is normal, is the power button, it feels very soft when I press on it and I can't feel it click at all htc told me this could be normal cause the newer one series phones had soft power buttons. I thought the power button was the issue, but the phone won't even charge. The most I've left it plugged it was about less than an hour, I also saw people saying if you plug it in a computer it can fix it, but Idk how that will solve the issue, I will be going to a friends in the morning to try that though. Anyways that's about all.. I hope that someone can help me with this, and If I can fix it I will be sooo happy! Before I go to bed I will leave it plugged in all night to see what happens. Thanks.

Seems that way, if it does not turn on after hours on charge. And all button combinations don't work either.....then yeah, nothing you can do really.

If i send it to htc they will be able to do something to figure out what's wrong right? I mean everything is fixable.
Sent from my Incredible 4G LTE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Yes everything is fixable, but it might cost you money. If it's not rooted or custom rommed (locked bootloader) then you have the biggest chance on getting warranty.

Hmm. Well is it normal that the power button feels soft and no kind of clicking in it to know weather it is being pressed down or not? Also if the phone is flashing red when charger is plugged in does that mean the port is still okay?
Sent from my Incredible 4G LTE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Well mine has a little click when i press it. Can't say for other hoxes, haven't had that many in my hand.
Yeah port is fine, my guess it's a hardware fault. Maybe the battery itself is faulty or the battery circuit is not functioning the way it should

I've left it plugged in for about 40m and it's just blinking red every 7 or so mins. My power button I'm afraid is broken.. Maybe that's why I can't get any signs that it can turn on or not.
Sent from my Incredible 4G LTE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Well the blinking should be static red after a while. Leave it on charge for many hours (8-9) and then try again some button combo's

So I plugged it in my computer and it said it was in a download mode. And the guy I got it from said it needed jtag repair. Which I think that's what it is.

Then you cant fix it at home !
