My brother has a HTC One X (still not unlock bootloader and root)
yesterday, when he upgraded GO lock screen, the phone freezed and crash. I don't know exactly what was he doing but as he said, he turn on the phone by pressing power + vol+ buttons. And chose something which he didn't know what is this lol
and then, the phone completely off. I tried to press power button or power + vol+ many times but the screen didn't show up anything
I connected it to my PC but PC didn't recognize phone, and of course, it can't be charged too
Anybody can help his HOX please
I don't know what to do now T.T
how old is this phone if it still under warenty i would send it back to either if its contract and covered to them or take it back to the shop you got it from because it sounds like a full on brick to me.
connect it to the charger for ATLEAST 1 hour then try again. there are no options in the bootloader which brick the phone

yep, i agree... you should charge your phone and you will see you red led blinking... let it charge and that will do the trick
Then plug it to your PC's USB,if your PC can see it's presence and install drivers then it's not bricked.
Most probably your bro did a master reset from the bootloader menu and the battery was weak,if the phone doesn't boot after recharging then hold down power + volume to access bootloader menu and reset again this time with good battery

before having the problem, his phone was at full charge
and as i mentioned above, connect to PC, charge ... the phone didn't show anything
Hold down the power button for 10 sec to do a ''battery removal'' simulation.
Also did yout try to enter bootloader menu holding power + volume(phone off)?

Hi there!
I have got a really strange problem with my desire. Here is what happened:
I opened the market app whilst using mobile internet. The app froze on the loading screen and the phone was unresponsive.
I pulled the battery and powered on again. All seemed fine.
I opened the market again and the exact same thing happened, only this time I can't turn the phone back on.
I have tried pulling the battery. Tried plugging the phone into a charger without the battery then reinserting the battery. Tried charging the battery until the led went green, still no luck.
I had plenty of battery when this happened.
When the phone is on charge, when you press the power button, the led goes out, but the phone does not turn on.
Does anyone know what this might be? or how I can turn my phone on again?
Thanks all!
Bump, does anybody have any idea?
The only idea I have is a hard factory reset:
Try to start phone with pressed volume down and power button, navigate with volume button to "clear storage" and enter with power button.

Thanks for the ideas guys. I actually can't power on the device at all. Can't boot into recovery, can't do anything as far as I can tell.
Any other ideas?

What the hell are you doing to ur desire?
Try removing battery for a minute, then re insert it
Then press volume down and without release it, press also power button and wait 5 seconds with both pressed to see if it boots into bootloader and go into recovery too

I removed the charger before putting the battery in. I saw someone recommend it on another forum with a similar problem.
I have tried to get into recovery after leaving the battery out for 12 hours, after charging the phone until the led was green, it seems I've tried everything to get this to work but nothing.
I'm really annoyed as well because I'm 2 weeks out of warranty. It just seems so odd that a software crash could cause all this.
Anybody else got any ideas?

Absolutely nothing. Totally blank screen, no vibrate nothing. Phone is not recognised by pc. The only things that happen are the following:
When plugged into the charger the orange led comes on, and eventually turns green.
When plugged in, if I press the power button the led turns off, but nothing else happens.
I'm totally at a loss. I called HTC and am sending it in for warranty repair. They said they have extended the warranty to 2 years which is a bit of a turn up for the books, so hopefully they will fix it for free and not charge me for it
Try this:
Boot into hboot
Count (slowly) to 20
Then press the power button once
Connect the usb
Start command prompt
Type "fastboot devices"
For this to work you need to install Android SDK see here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK
If you get anything than somebody can help you. I read somewhere about this issue but I can't find it anymore.
My brother is using HTC ONE V for last 8 months. He got it rooted from his friend some 20 days back, was on stock rom. Yesterday suddenly phone got switched off in the afternoon. he tried to restart it, tried to soft reset- by holding power button. and tried to hard reset by holding power and volume down. but unfortunately phone didnt respond, he connected to a wall charger but no led notification light. now today evening, when he got back home, i also tried same things, but no luck. At last I attached it to my laptop via usb cable, and led notification light was back. I allowed it to charge it for some time and then tried to start it with power button. it worked. phone worked for about 20 mins, during that time it auto rebooted one time, but we thought problem was solved. we also did factory reset to make a new start, it worked fine..phone worked like new for an hour, battery was around 50% or so, and then.. went dead again..we just inserted micro sd card and sim..few minutes after that it went DEAD.. now even laptop isnt recognizing it. no led notification light or windows sound when connected to laptop.
Can anyone help? what has happened? Is it some battery problem??
thanks and regards,
K

Hello I need your help. I didn't make any changes like root, ROM flash, unlocking bootloader and so. In the morning I had about 8 % battery so I plugged tablet into charger (it was on and wifi was also on). When I came home afte 4-5 hours I press power button and lock screen (i didnt unlock it) showed up but I noticed that battery icon showed only 2/3 and there was not charging flash indication, I was confused so I unplug it and lock the screen. Then I press power button again to show unlock screen but nothing happened. After that I tried to plug it back to charger (nothing happened) , try to hold power button for more then 2 minutes, also power + vol UP or vol DOWN (to access bootloader) or both but nothing appeared, I try to connect to PC nothing only when I press power + both volume buttons and plug it into PC then PC shows missing driver QHSUSB_DLOAD but nothing appers on screen. I read that this message indicates brick. How can I brick nexus by nothing doing? I also try google video ,,Nexus 7 won't charge or turn on,, (i cant post link) but only more then 2 hours connection in AC. I'll try leave it over night but I dont think so that it will help.

well, if you can't power you M8 with any buttons combination i think you might have to send it to repair service...
Do you see the charging light at all?
Try plugging the phone into the pc via usb. Press and hold volume up and power until you hear a ding on the pc, might take a while.

I had the same problem after I did a dirty flash of a new ROM. Phone went black and didn't want to reboot anymore. What I did was to connect the phone via USB with the PC first. Then I tried combination of holding the power button for 20 sec. After that holding the Volume up key first then pressing together with the Power button and also hold it for 10-15 sec. After cycling that for 2-3 times finally my phone rebooted. I have no clue why but after that I was able to jump back into recovery and reflashed the ROM with full-wipe. Then everything was ok.
unplug phone, vol up and power for 11 seconds, let go of both, vol down and power to enter boot loader, then choose reboot. Must be unplugged for this

Do you use TWRP recovery?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes. Version 2.7.1.0.
My phone went black and wouldn't do anything after I clean flashed a rom. I just left it alone once I established it wouldn't do anything and it came back on its own after a while. I was using twrp 2.7.1.0 also. I have switched to Phil's touch recovery to see if it happens next time I flash a rom.

Did you make a nandroid backup before u flashed viper one? If u did enter recovery by rebooting holding down vol down and restore your backup. Or flash your carriers stock firmware. Check the back to stock thread for info on that.
If that doesn't work it's a hardware issue and you should check your warranty and get a replacement.
Thank you guys for the help and for everyone coming together to come up with solution it is deeply appropriated my M8 was finally able to boot it up I plugged phone on the charger and directly to the power outlet on the wall and hold the volume up + volume down + power bottom all 3 keys at same time for 20 minutes and released all key at the same and left phone on charger over night for 24hrs and phone was able to boot up
I think you only need to hold Vol Up + Power for a few seconds and it should reboot.
Mine did the same thing once and that's how I got it to restart.

True. Power + Vol Up is a reboot, basically a simulated battery pull (for phones that have a removable battery.
Power + Vol Down boots into bootloader.
Power + Vol Up + Vol Down is not any button combo on this device, that I know of. This is perhaps a button combo for another device? Care should be taken to only do known button combos. Although I don't think there is any "harmful" button combo on the M8; on my old One X (EVITA) folks would mistakenly do Power + Vol Up to go into bootloader (correct combo is Power+ Vol down) which erased the ROM and sent the phone into Qualcomm download mode, which would probably give you a heart attack!
