I've had they Hercules for just over a year now but have only been using it for the past four months. I have only downloaded educational apps. However, yesterday i was not using it and came back to find it vibrating every 2-3 seconds. I removed the battery and left it out for an hour. When i replaced the battery, the phone began to reload but stopped during the boot,made a noise I've never heard before and began to vibrate as if going into recovery/download mode. I have been running ics for the past 4 months. The phone does not boot at all and is very frustrating . I have also tried charging it with no luck. Can anyone assist me with this problem??
sounds like you have the dreadful power button fail it gets a little jammed up try sticking a toothpick or something skinny in there and wiggle it a bit see if that works for you if not check if your still under warranty are you rooted or stock ICS?
u have a bad power button. try unsticking it.
Agreed. A friend had a similar issue and his power button was stuck.
I'm rooted and the warranty is up

did u try fixing the button? if not you'll have to pay to get it repaired
So it appears that it's something wrong with the chipset...

Strange enough this just happened to me 10 minutes ago. I did manage to get the phone to boot after slapping the hell out if my power button which gave me the only means to get into recovery so now I can comment from experience. Ive been running pac for 3 weeks. Just yesterday my phone started doing really weird ****, dont know if it's just coincidence, calls would go through to random people, every time I clicked gallery I got a random reboot, I couldnt call voicemail, and trying to change wallpapers gave a reboot. Today I was changing a wallpaper and boom random reboot then began the loop and vibrating. A few things I noticed while this was happening, if I attempted to go into recovery the samsung splash screen appeared followed by the stock kernel splash( samsung and the blue bar at the bottom) which made me believe it wasnt the power button but indeed rom or kernel problem, also my led flashed once while going through the vibrate loop and I know the power button has nothing to do with that. I did manage to get pac to boot about 4 times by slapping the hell out of my power button but it went back to the loop after a few seconds so the next time I managed to get it to boot I held the power button and booted to recovery. Once I was able to get in to recovery I restored a liquid smooth back up. Ive powered the phone off and on with no problem. Now I'm just waiting to see what happens through out the day. I was running pac with cerux when this happened. I truly believe this is not a hardware problem at all until I get it again with another set up. If you need help I getting your phone to boot I could possibly be of assistance so pm me unless you want to keep getting responses from people who haven't experienced this at all. This was the single most scariest experience Ive had since I ve been flashing, even worse than my brick because I knew I bricked immediately.
Hopefully someone could give a few more opinions before I throw this thing in the trash can... I'm still having the reboot issue... I can use it for hours on end as long as the screen is on. It will stay on if its connected to any power source... But when its not plugged in and the screen locks it reboots about 3 seconds later...
Didn't do this before I took the 2.35 ota.. I've tried 15 different ROMs, different kernels, I tried overclocking and trying to get rid of deep sleep. Don't know what else to do. I'd love to try to raise the voltage but every kernel/ROM I use doesn't give me that option.
Also I'd like to mention when I boot into bootloader it immediately searches for pd98img.zip. is this normal? I never seen another boot loader look for a certain file.
Anyway, any help will be appreciated... I'd hate to get rid of this phone if its fixable...
This is the bootloader

The HTC legend always looks for legimg.zip or simular file name when booting into bootloader..
If you can't boot into android at all, even though you tried lots of roms and kernels it sounds to me like something has fried.

No no the phone boots and works well. But if the phone just sits there and the screen goes dark to lock itself it'll do a quick reboot. If I lock it myself it'll do a quick reboot. However when its plugged in to a charger it won't reboot if that makes sense... Its like the screen doesn't like to be off when its off the charger lol

Hey
If it goes straight into the bootloader, then it sounds like something has fried inside or there is something stopping it booting.
Have you flashed the boot.img with each ROM?
And yes, if it looks for a PD198IMG.zip it is normal.
If you need some extra help, post in the Ace Think Tank & you'll get some help pretty quickly
Ugh sorry guys I may have trouble explaining what its doing... It doesn't boot straight to bootloader.. .. It boots straight into the ROM like its supposed to. (CodefireX)... the device works flawlessly. Till the screen dims and sleeps. Then it reboots automatically. If I set the display option to sleep after 10 minutes, it works awesome for 10 minutes. Till it sleeps. Then it reboots. If I put it on the charger, the random reboots stop, and im able to lock and unlock the device like normal... If i unplug it while the screen is off, it reboots automatically...
I only posted a picture of bootloader to let you guys know which version hboot I have and s-on etc.
I shot a little video of it doing it. However for some reason YouTube won't allow me to upload.. And I'm scared a 2 minute 30 second video will rape my data plan if I upload to drop box....

Have you tried replacing the battery?
No... That thought came across me also.. I'll stop by RadioShack today if I get a chance...
But it still makes me wonder... It didn't do this before I took that update... I'll flash early ROM and see if the aahk will take to it so it'll s-off... Then I'll try to run the original RUU... If its still rebooting like that I'll get another battery for sure...
Is there ANY custom kernels that'll let me play with the voltage? I haven't seen one yet that'll brings up a voltage tab in any freq app.. Tried a few kernels sense and aosp... Tried kernel tuner, setcpu, voltage adjuster, and no frills

I need some help with this issue. My tablet is stock out of the box. I have been using it since last Friday. But today I turned it off then after an hour later I turned it back on, it gets stuck at x logo. I really dont know what issue is called? I have tried to restart the tablet several times by holding the powerbutton, but it is still stuck at X logo, and I have tried to use recovery mode in bootloading, but I get no command message everytime.
If you don't have a lot on your nexus and don't mind wiping then just hold power and vol up, which will data wipe your nexus. I know when I first started my nexus it would go to the welcome screen and then bootloop if I didn't click the next button fast enough. But you're saying you've been using it so dunno.
or you could fastboot then flash twrp and try to clear cache/dalvik and see if that helps

First hold power+volume down to go to boot loader, then select recovery, then in recovery do power+volume up. I think that's the proper order.

Just as a side-note, I've had 2 Nexuses 7 (the older versions) and BOTH of them did this to me when updating to a higher version of Android. I swore like a madman as I had to hard-reset the device thus losing nearly all my data. If anyone reports that this happens with the new Nexus, it might be the deciding factor for me to not buy it... unfortunately...

Thank you for all inputs, but I am new/noob about these stuffs, and im still able to exchange, so I'm going to exchange for another one. Thank you everyone who tried to help me. Have a nice day.
It's really easy to do. I had the same issue as you and a factory reset corrected it. Just make sure to follow the steps and everything will be fine

I'm having the same issue since last Saturday when I picked it up. Still running stock and it just would not boot up and it seemed no one else was facing any problems. So I did fastboot unlock, it reset the device and cleared all data. Since then, I've been running stock, and I'm still facing the issue. I'm not sure if it's actually an issue with stock or not.
Just had this same problem on a brand new nexus 7 only a couple of days old. I really can't believe Asus/Google has these problems in 2013. Unbelievable.
Do you have a custom recovery installed?
Just happened to me very weird.

Have you guys tried 1 click factory reset?
It happened to me with old. Exchanged it. And happened today in new one this time I was able to turn it off then try again and it booted. Started after 6 days of flawless use. Weird.

Just happened to me...
I just had my SECOND one do this to me this morning. I bought the 2nd Gen Nexus 7 last week and it did this within an hour of using it (after an update). I took it back and got another one. This morning the second one did this after a simple reboot. I never had this trouble with my 1st Gen Nexus 7. I'm about to start trying the tips listed in this thread before I return yet another one. I'm wondering if this is the first reboot since the 4.3 update... maybe that is the issue.
Try Fully Charging?
Something similar happened to me on the first one I got, not sure if it will happened to the exchanged one since I only had it for a few days.
It happened after I shut it down one night, battery was about 80% or so. Next morning, I started it up and it actually loaded up fine but after a minute, it just rebooted, stuck at the X, then rebooted to the Google logo, over and over again. Did a factory reset and cleared the cache and still would get into the boot loop after 1 minute of successful boot up. Battery was about halfway when I decided to just charge it fully.
After the battery was fully charged, everything worked fine again. I suspect that the battery was run down next to nothing, but indicated that it was halfway. To me, that indicates a hardware issue so I exchanged it. I am wondering if they are using cheap batteries to keep the cost low. Not sure anyone else has seen this happened to them.
Anyway, if you watch the X, the colors move around, then suddenly stop after a while, it reboots again.
Same thing happened to me this moring around 3 a.m, shutdown and restarted and it was still stuck on the x screen. Tried wiping the cache from recovery and nothing. Had to do a factory reset in order to get passed boot screen. Tablet is working normally now.
Getting stuck on boot screen occasionally occur on 4.3. It seems like an OS issue not the hardware issue. I have seen it once or twice on my stock non-rooted Nexus 4 running 4.3. Never happened on 4.1~4.2.
On the other hand, if you have rooted your 4.3 device, the chance of ****up at boot rises dramatically. The toolkit is, while an admirable work, not perfect and you have no one but to blame yourself.
I have fastboot enabled, and it usually takes about 5 seconds to boot up, right?. But my HOX has surprised me for a while, by booting up instantly, without boot screen, just vibration, and whoosh!, I'm seeing my lockscreen. Just for the sake of curiousity, does this happen to you guys too?

Hi guys, i have a big problem on my htc desire hd. Its rooted, S off etc. Cca. two weeks ago htc starts restarting. I thought its a battery problem, couse i tested it 1 months ago and it has only 200mah. So i bought new battery, but its the same. When i charging the device, it does not restart never. When stop charging... restarts. When i using the device (browsing web, texting, etc) its fine, it doesnt restart. When stop using... restarts. These restarts keeps repeating every couple of seconds. Then i hard reset my phone, doesnt work. Then flash with CM 10.1, manually install kernel, but is the same. I dont know what more can i do. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks and sorry for bad english
News When phone goes to sleep mode (black screen), it shuts down. I cannot wake it up, if i press power button, it just booting again.
In recovery it does not restart.
just installing another custom rom (try SVHD v2.1.0) from recovery..don't forget to full wipe/factory reset except the sd card..before installing any custom rom..
hope this help..
I already installed 3 new roms, but there is no difference. Now just shuts down when idle. If i use the device, is ok. If i press power button (sleep), i cannot wake it up anymore. ALWAYS:crying:
Is this behavior also happen on the stock rom or arhd rom? Try flashing them and see whther the same problem occurs

sorry for that too..so this is cleared that's problem is not from phone software but related from the phone hardware itself..
hope your phone will be fixed soon..
Yes, it seems so. Its strange... when charging si all ok, when using the phone is all ok, the problem is only when dont charging + idle together.
No such things

Strange, but yes. When charging is back part of the phone pretty hot.
Get it checked your motherboard is faulty .... I don't mean to alarm you ..but the same thing happened to my friends dhd...his phone is dead now ...R.I.P
