Hello folks!
I did use my 816 with cm11 nightlies and it was working just fine, 'til today. I wanted to flash a new CWRM and of course it wasn't really for my phone Now the screen is blinking with the "charging battery" emblem and the upper led is light in orange. I tried to reboot the phone with adb and fastboot but looks like the device didn't make it till adb. I tried manually kill the phone with the vol-up and pwr buttons, but didn't seem to work. The screen is just flashing and it will drain the battery dry, but i dont want to wait for it.
So here is my Q. Is there any way to make the phone turn off without popping the back panel off?
P.s: This was my very first Q here, and my English is very bad, soory for it.
Hello, did you find a solution ?

Hey guys,
i was trying to root the Desire of my uncle, it is a german TMobile branded device with HBoot 0.75.
I used the instructions of the third post in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189
After that i bricked the display i dont know why. The i tried to unbrick the display using the instrunctions of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748498
Now i have a Desire that does nothing, no vibration, my computer don't recognise it when i plug in the usb plug, the phone seems dead. The only thing the phone is doing is when it charges the battery, the orange/green leds are blinkng.
Is the phone dead, or can it be recovered in some way?
Unbrick a SLCD is very painful - had to do this myself. The instructions to unbrick are correct. The problem is blind navigating through the Bootloader menu. Sometimes its not responding to Vol-Up or Down at all - so you can't say if you really got to the right point at the Bootloader menu.
Hardest thing for me was to get into Recovery at all. Just give your phone 10s minimum between all steps.

re: blinking: are they on, or actually blinking? when mine is charging I have a solid orange and when it is 100% I have a solid green LED.
Could it be a USB brick and a SLCD brick at the same time?
Have you tried to get the computer to recognise it in either fastboot or recovery mode?
Code:
plug it into the computer (turned off)
vol down+power=bootloader. was there a *ding*?
if not, press power again. you should be in fastboot now. any ding now?
if not, press power again (back to bootloader), wait ~10 seconds, press vol down, then power. you should now be in the recovery screen that would usually have a red exclamation mark in it. any luck with the *ding*?
if there is a *ding* coming from your computer then it can still be accessed from the PC and therefore should a ~relatively~ straightforward fix.

its to do with the fastboot etc having to load the pm99.img files, and that takes ~10-15 seconds. the phone won't respond before it loads these in the bootloader.

When it is charging the red led is permanet on, when it has fully charged the green led is on.

No *dings* no matter what i do.
Any other suggestion?
red? I didn't know the desire had a red LED, it certainly doesnt show up in a logcat on the blinker app.
do the keys light up when attempting to turn it on?

Sorry i mean the orange led.
When i try to turn it on nothing happens, no vibration, no key lights. The only thing that happen is the orange led turns off.

Unfortunately I don't know how much more help I could be.
all I could suggest is trying to flash said fixes completely blindly again in hopes you screwed it up the first time (using a MicroSD card adaptor to put necessary files on the card).
I guess the next option is to try at Modaco if you haven't already, or see if T-Mob can replace (whether or not you tell them the full story is up to you)
sorry I couldn't be more help

Hello all dears...
I'm new user in XDA, please help me solve my problem
Thanks in advance...
I searched every where about this problem but my problem is a little different!
I faced a problem while root and s-off my desire hd with advance ace hack kit.
Everything was good until the step that pc couldn't find qualcomm cdma technologies msm driver!
So device makes 3 vibrates and goes to a black screen and orange light flashs! It doesn't go to boot loader, recovery , etc.
If press power + vol- it makes 5 vibrates and green light turns on!!
When connect to charger it goes to recovery but screen goes black immediately!
I put away device, after 10 minutes turn it on. BUT strangely it goes to bootloader by power + vol- without problem!!!
I had ViperDHD ROM in my sd card so I flash it. BUT after installation, phone restarts and again it makes 3 vibrates and goes to a black screen and orange light flashs!
I remove battery, after 30 seconds put it again and device started with ViperDHD ROM without problem!!!!!
NOW my problem is every time I reboot phone it makes 3 vibrates and goes to a black screen and I should remove battery and .....
Sometimes it goes to boot loader some times not!! No stable situation!
I just used aahk to root and unlock my inspire. Did you try going to their irc channel for help?

That sounds like a hardware issue and not a hack kit problem. Actually, Hack Kit does not requiere qualcomm driver in any of the processes.
SOLVED : BATTERY WAS DRAINED AT THE MAX, never seen that.
Hello all,
This kind of discussion has already been mentionned but i didn't found anything (may be bad search).
After flashing a rom (PureIon rom) through CMW and without the requiered kernel (in this case the .211 or something like that was needed) the phone was stuck on boot "Sony".
A this moment i cannot enter neither in flash mode or fastboot mode.
If i keep it on the wall poser supply, it stays turned off with red led (not blinking, constant), after a while he automatically turns on and stuck on the Sony logo.
If I just shut off (simple keep power+volume up) there is no way to turn on the phone, i have to re-plug the phone against the wall power supply and wait.
The hard reset (3 vibrations after keeping 10sec the power+vol up) is not working anymore
Someone has already had this king of behaviour ?
Thank you in advance.
Regards.
I tried to flash the new firmware necessary to flash the 5.0 GPE rom but found that my phone had no OS after that. So I tried to flash PhilZ recovery so that I could load a ROM but after I completed that, the M8 is basically dead. The screen won't turn on and the notification light is red. No matter what buttons I press, power+volup, voldown or both, the red light just turns off for a second and then turns on again. The screen won't turn on at all. It's not a battery issue as I had close to 80%. I'm sure I've bricked it somehow but is there a way to fix it? Please help.

does the PC recognize the phone, do you get any usb notification sound ?
does the pc load a driver when plugged in ?
what firmware were you on and what firmware did you flash ?

If you answer these, we can try to help you further :good:
charge it for 15mints and see the noti light turns on or not and if the pc doesn't recognize after installing drivers then its hard bricked , what did u did with the phone?
I don't know what the issue was but I kept repeating vol up+power reboots until it turned on. Was able to flash the ROM through adb sideload.
Hi, I'm sorry if this question has been asked but the threads that I read could not help me.
The problem arouse when I was trying to install TWRP to my phone. The last thing I remember doing in my phone was flashing something.
Now, when the phone is turned on, all that happens is blue and red flashing led and also is not recognized by the computer. When I hit the power and low volume keys to go to system recovery but none of the options help; it returns to the black screen and flashing led. When I do power and up volume the led stops flashing and my computer recognizes it as qhsusb_bulk.
I do not know what to do about this, and I would really appreciate your help! Thanks!
Again, my phone is an LG G3 VS985 from Verizon.
