I was updating my Dash the other day to Ookba's latest rom when I received an error message. It gave me instructions on how to fix it (loading it in bootloader etc.), and I received a message saying it was successful and the rom would continue updating. I received another error message saying the rom was corrupt, and the program shutdown. My phone will not power up now. It was at(or near) full charge while reflashing, but will not turn on regardless of the button combination I hold while attempting to power it on.
Any ideas? Thanks!
what rom did you attempt to load in the bootloader? it should have been the factory rom..if not, then that is probably the root of the problem....as far as it not powering on now...I leave that open to the forum...cuz' I have no relevant advice on that one....
when trying to do the gold card method to unbrick my phone, it say Invalid certificate ..? wats this and how to fix it.
I was trying the "[ROM][EXCA][WWE][* 3VOLUTION SERIES *][WM6.5 STD 21854][Build 3VO.3.00.112509]" when it locked up on me, and still hasn't been able to power up.
Today when plugging it in after a week of letting sit, a red led light showed where the normal orange/green led would normally light up when charging/charged. The light stayed on for a few seconds, then shut off. Nothing else though. Any other suggestions?

Red light my friend means your battery is gone, probably your phone is not bricked maybe it just needs a battery replacement
I am having the same issue, except that I can place the battery in another Dash and it boots up just fine, so I am assuming it is not the battery. I will buy another one to double check. My problem is the same as which is stated above. Can anyone help? Thank you.
Just an update to see if I can get anymore suggestions. Hadn't touched the phone since the last post. Bought a new battery for it this weekend and it's still dead as ever. Won't boot at all. Not into bootloader, nothing. I get absolutely no response holding power+cam or softkeys+power.
Any advice? I don't absolutely need the phone as I've picked up a G1, but it would be nice to have this working, or at least trash it if it's junk.
Thanks!
Everyone else stumped too?
Have you connected to the wall charger to see if you get some response with your new battery?.
Just unbricked mine after being dropped again by the girlfriend. Try this, plus usb cable into device, press the camera button only. See if that gets you into the bootloader screen. If so, flash the oem build and go from there.
Tried it plugged into a wall charger for 3-4 hours, car charger for another hour, and computer/usb for another hour. No response anytime.
I'll try the camera only method when I get home later.
Thanks!
Just tried plugging it into the computer and holding only the camera. Didn't work. Tried that, tried holding power+cam, power+soft keys etc.. What's weird is I had the battery cover off while doing this, and the battery slipped out while I was holding cam+pwr, it actually loaded into the multicolor(bootloader?) screen twice, but would shutoff within a few seconds. Now I'm back to no response from it.
Finally got it to stay on the boot screen without turning off, but can't get it to establish an activesync with the computer so I can't flash it. The computer is obviously detecting it though, because I see an icon that says "remove smartphone usb sync".
The phone's FINALLY working again! Thanks again guys! I was a couple of days away from junking the thing! I couldn't get Ookba's rom to flash it, so I went back to the unbricking tutorial and saw that he recommended grabbing the factory rom to flash it. I did, it worked, and I just flashed it again using Ookba's rom.
Took quite a few months, but it's back! Thanks!
Hello,
My friend completely discharged her HTC One V, turned it up several times after it shut down due to a low battery. Now the phone won't boot or even show the red charging light.
We tried charging it for 2 hours, holding the power button with volume down key for 10 seconds in every possible configuration (connected to PC, connected to wall, not connected at all, and with or without SIM card); It won't open fastboot or anything.
The phone is running the latest official software and never been unlocked or rooted or anything; only apps from Play Store.
I tried searching all the HTC One forums here on XDA and Googled as well, with no luck.
Can you please help? Thanks a million in advance.

Probably brick. This happens sadly, I don't know if this is because hTC sets the battery drain voltage too low, and just overburns the battery, or some components don't like this, but happens. Go to hTC service.
Hello everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this.
My uncle brought me the HTC One X yesterday and it didn't run at all. So I charged it whole night and it showed glimpses of life this morning. However the screen is black, there are sounds and I see touch buttons flashing. I don't know if there is lock screen at all, and probably USB debugging is not activated. Yet there is no HTC service shops or something like that so I'm on my own. I've looked everywhere and it seems nothing helps.
P.S. there are probably some grammar mistakes but hopefully you can forgive me.
Thanks!
Edit:
When I connect my mobile phone to computer via USB cable and HTC Sync Manager pops out it says that my phone is locked and I need to unlock it.
Remove Sim
If there is a sim inserted in the tray, remove it.
Charge it for about 3 hours, hold down the power button and volume down for about 10-15 seconds.
If you could get into fastboot then its definitely a problem with the OS. (Locked may be).
Im not quite sure of it. But you could try.
Hy everyone, first post here.
I've browsed the internet and this forum for a while now and haven't found a fix for this yet, so I've registered in order to ask if anybody has a clue how to fix the phone of my gf.
A little background story: The phone worked ~a year ago and has not been used since then, my gf lost her phone and wanted to use this one until she can afford a new one.
BUT sadly the phone doesn't cooperate.
After switching it on it vibrates once and shows either an illuminated black screen or the HTC logo with white background for around 10 seconds, then fades to black and repeats the process over and over.
Pressing any hardware buttons in every imaginable combination during any state of the phones starting process (before/during boot, removing and reinserting battery...) doesn't change anything at all.
Pluggin the phone into an usb port of my pc will make the phone repeat the procedure after a random amount of time.
Plugging the phone into a wall socket will make it show the battery charging bar for a few seconds and then repeat the above mentioned procedure.
The PC doesn't seem to recognize the phone (Im on windows 10, have not found anything in device manager).
There has never been any try to flash or root the phone, everything is stock
.
Hope I have not made any major language mistakes,
Huge thanks in advance for any help regarding my problem.
I was using my HTC desire from last one year & it was working fine untill I faced a hanging issue when I was checking my facebook account it stops all of sudden the battery was showing 40% that time I was not able to do anything. Then I do a soft reset by pressing volume down & power button at the same time, the phone restarts and when the HTC logo came all of sudden the phone shuts down and doesn't start after it.
Whenever​ connected to charger an orange light blinks instead of continuous. I have shown to various mobile repairing shops & also have checked with battery changing but no response at all. Please guys help me to get out of this issue. I love my phone very much
