Hey Geeks,
I need some help and I bet that you could help me!
I ve used the search engine to not post anything someone did before. But there was nothing that could help me.
First I ll describe you what I ve done to brick my Desire HD:
My phone is rooted, S-OFF, ENG S-OFF with CM 7. After installing the new ROM I wasn`t able to install anything from the amrket. So I ve looked up for the reason and tried different things to sovle it. I ve read somewhere that it could help to add a partition to my SD-card. So I ve used the ROM Manager to format my sd card and create a partition.
ROM Manager asked me if I am sure bla bla... you know what I mean. After giving ROM Manager su-permission my phone shuts down. From there on nothing happened. (and still no patition on my sd card).
It`s not reacting to the power button, to the volume-down + power button nor is blinking my LED when I connect it to the USB-Port. Seems like it`s out of energy (but my akku was charged before I ve stzarted with the partition of my sd card).
I ve tried to put out the akku for several minutes. No reaction.
Removing SD-Card before pushing the power button: No reaction
Plug in to charge battery without hitting any button... some hours later: still no reaction
Formating SD-Card: No reaction
Then I ve tried to install the RUU 1.32., saved it on my sd-card, plugged phone in to start... my pc is not detecting my phone.
And now I am helpless
So it doesn't boot at all? Because if it doesn't, you are pretty much screwed...no boot -> no access -> no fix, but I don't believe that you can screw your phone up that badly by partitioning your sd-card.
Unless someone has a fix for this (and the problem doesn't solve itself somehow), your best bet is to send your phone to HTC for a repair, they probably won't charge you anything if it is still covered under warranty, since they can't really check for any modifications if it doesn't boot. It is probably a hardware problem any way.

The fact that it doesn't boot at all is a good thing for send it back for warranty purpose. But if you formated your sd-card, you lost root anyway. You have to make a backup of your SD-Card before you format/partition it, and then copy everything back.
And your initial issue was maybe due to an outdated version of Gapps...
why should he loose root if he formats his sd-card? you have root even without an sd-card.
if nothing helps to get your DHD back to life, you probably have to send it to HTC. but I think it's covered by warranty since it's (probably) a hardware fault.
btw, i think i've seen a thread like this somewhere here yesterday... i'll have a look and post a link if i find something
Edit: found it! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013582&page=2
look at page 2. there are some people with the same problem, but there is no solution yet.
But you do have CWM-Recovery on it don't you?
And if, can you get into Recovery?
Had similar Problems, once...
But my phone only showed the white HTC Logo and that was it....
What i did was the following... flashed Revory via Fasbootload from Computer...
Next, i formatted my sd card via computer and copied a new Rom.zip onto it.
In my Case, leedroid.
Next, i just flashed it and it happened to work again, luckily.
he can't even boot into the bootloader.

Hardware fault or not, rooting voids warranty. Let's hope that they can't inspect the internal memory.
Anyway, is the phone reacting to connecting to a proper charger (try to leave it plugged in for a couple of hours even if the LED doesn't light up)? The other thing you could try is to find a friend with a DHD and swap the batteries just to try if somehow you managed to kill your battery.
hi Sleipnir1985,
go back to your shop,
when did you buy it? they must take it for service, or they give you new one.
it is only best solution in this case
if you take battery out for 5! min, then plug it in and hold volume down then push power button - nothing happened, this is it, the end...
cheers/

yes, but HTC replaces your phone if it's a hardware and not a software fault. a friend of mine got his DHD replaced with eng hboot, radio S-OFF, custom rom and so on. and lots of people here on XDA also.
Here`s another mate with the same problem.
I am going to give my HTC to the shop this evening. Push your thumbs that I ll get a new one

Hi,
Hello everyone,
I have a question and need your advice.
I have a HOX which starts correctly, and when it happens on the desktop, it freezes. I also hear the sound when I press the volume buttons.
In your opinion, is this a software problem? or is that the motherboard is burned out?
(It is no longer under warranty).
Thank you for your answers.
are you running stock or custom rom?
Stock Rom
have you tried doing a factory reset via the bootloader?
I have do a factory reset through recovery mode. But after this the screen stays unresponsive.
This couldn't be a problem with my motherboard?
i wouldn't say so because recovery is working are you rooted? could try re flashing the OS

This is not the same problem. Yours is a issue of bootloop (or other).

Hello everybody
I have a problem with my phone, today I installed a game, Plants vs Zombies 2, and after a few minutes I was playing the phone has rebooted. Since that time at start up, after 15/20 seconds the phone reboots again.
I tried to do a hard reset but I have not solved anything.
A couple of days ago I flashed the firmware France "H", so I tried to flash an Italian firmware and I redid the hard reset but it has not solved anyway. (Now I have an "unknow IMEI")
I'm trying to do a restore with LG support tool, but the battery was too low then try again later.
*EDIT*
LG support tool has restored the original firmware (brand vodafone), but still no imei and reboots
Any other tips? Could you help me please
thaks!
Do you have freegee backup folder saved if you ever used it to unlock boot loader.
If yes restore it. Seems you have messed up efs.

hardreset means complete factory reset and al ur data frm the internal storage will be deleted..!!...wrong choice
I do not understand why the phone reboots (and after i flashed the 10h firmware the phone worked fine for 2 days).
Without imei phone should not make calls.
I can not even flash another firmware because in the process the phone reboots and after a few seconds and the phone will reboot again before the process is finished
exactly the problem i have right now , sent it to over 4 shops , all couldn't fix it , said i had to send it back to lg to fix it , but lg is asking me for 300$ to fix it ( , im phoneless atm.
It seems is mainboard issue.hardware problems can't be fixed by software solutions....

well then after the reboot sequence for a couple of days , i flashed another firmware 10e or something and it started working again for 2 days but it went back to the reboot sequence like in the beginning... i don't really think it's a hardware issue , when im charging it in the off position , it just works normally.

I have a lg g3 d855, after going to the service menu and attempting a touch screen firmware upgrade my phone got stuck and now my touch screen is dead. I tried several solutions, flashing .kdz through lg flash tool, upgrading my firmware through lg mobile support tool etc. I am 100% sure it is not a hardware issue, since the touch screen was working before this. How can I get the service menu to the default settings or something like that. PLEASE share any advice about this issue.
Thank you
an update
For the last two days I tried everything I can, so I'll try to explain every move I made. First of all, I tried every version from kitkat to lollipop, even I flashed the marshmallow update, but no success. ATM I am on lollipop stock rom, with root and TWRP recovery. I am using my mouse through usb adapter to navigate with the phone. I rooted my phone with kingroot app.
- The touch screen firmware version on my phone is -1, that was the case even before my screen got unresponsive, I can't figure it out how is this possible. I tried doing the same thing, updating the touch screen firmware but nothing happens when I click update through the service menu.
- I opened the back of the phone, reconnected the screen with the motherboard and turned on the phone - but no success. The situation remains the same. unresponsive screen.
So I am kindly asking for any advice or idea you have about my problem, how can I get my phone to work properly?
Does someone know where can I find a working touchscreen firmware for LG G3 D855? Is it possible to push the firmware to my phone using adb sideload or twrp?
At last, can a screen replacement solve this issue? I am 100% sure that this is not a hardware problem, all I need is to push a touch screen firmware on my phone.
Please help xda members!

Hmm, can you go to the service menu again and Hw test or something like that and see if it works? Something on the hidden menu must work..
My g3 is in a rough state too, best of luck for you mate.

I can access the service menu with my mouse, but my screen stays unresponsive after clicking on the update touch screen firmware option. :crying: The touch screen firmware version is: -1, clearly something is wrong with it. Don't know what else can I do in the secret service menu, my brother g3 went just fine updating the touch screen firmware... Running test does not solve the problem.
I think that some professional service can repair it with connecting on a special equipment and resetting the chipset and screen firmware ( similar to pc bios with programator).
Maybe it is possible to do it on a pc with adb , pushing through sideload the firmware of the touch screen, but I can't find any touch screen firmware for lg g3 d855

I read on some websites about galaxy devices that were fixed with updating the Linux kernel to call the driver function that updates the firmware. I tried changing two kernels for stock rom on my g3, the situation remains the same.

If i was you, I'd get in touch with some kernel developer from the G3 or from those galaxy phones and try to explain your situation and kindly ask them if they could mod a stock kernel in order to force update firmware and test if it'd work.

I got my g3 back from the mobile service, with zero results. The touch screen cannot be fixed with flashing the software, they recommended changing the whole screen. The price is around 100 euros, a big sum compared to the phone price. I asked them to give me more time to think about, so I can make the right decision. I plan to take the phone to another mobile service for a second opinion.
The thing that bothers me the most is how can a touch screen firmware update destroy the functionality of the whole touch screen with one click.
Any advice is appreciated.

Hello, I've been having a similar issue to yours, only my entire screen stopped responding to input. I have noticed that the screen responds if I press harder (almost to the point that the screen starts discoloring), but even then it is unreliable. My phone is the LG G3 D855, and I am currently using Euphoria ROM and TWRP. The screen doesn't respond in TWRP either. I would also like to point out that I have not accessed the Hidden Menu since I bought my G3.
Do you have any advice for me? Any help at all would be appreciated.

I got your Messages, But what you explain about firmware is very strange.. My kernel it self uses the G4 touchscreen firmware.. The firmware is located in kernel/firmware/synaptics/g3 ..
also the phone it self has the blobs aks libs that also communicate with touchscreen.. when you said you tried everything.. I dont see how reverting to stock though kdz destroyed your phones touch screen.
pressing one simple button, I just dont see it... your root method was something I would never use.. but do you have access though twrp ? does it work then or still nothing?
Are you sure you went into download mode and flashed a fresh kdz? Download that app from the playstore that test touchscreen. and see if any reading are happening..
I used that app when I used the g4's touchscreen firmware.......... But everything works great for me....
msg me on hangouts if you need anymore input.. but as what I read.. it doesnt seem like a firmware issue. whatever you did effected the hardware totally............

Thanks for the reply, I'll try to explain the situation again as best as I can.
The phone worked without any problem on stock lollipop rom 5.0.2 and everything was fine after rooting, flashing TWRP recovery and installing Cloudy 2.5 with Xceed rom. The screen was responsive, just I noticed that after a phone call I can't hang up. I read on xda and other sites that Updating touch firmware might solve the issue, so I went to the secret service menu/ HW Test and I tried to update the touch firmware. After one simple click on the update button, everything went downhill. I tried several things, I am not an expert in this but surely not a noob at android mobile phones and flashing. This is my second LG phone, till September I had G2. Now I use my mouse through micro usb/ usb adapter to navigate.
A list of all the things I've tried:
- Going back to stock with flashing .tot and .dll file
- going back to stock with flashing stock .kdz file with lg flash tool 2014
- flashing different stock roms kitkat/lollipop/marshmallow
- Again rooting my phone and flashing TWRP recovery
- Flashed Blisspop custom rom
-Opened the back of the phone, reconnecting the whole touch screen with Phone on and off
No result!
The touch screen firmware version doesn't change at all. It says:
Touch Firmware Version:
-1
Read fail touch IC info
I don't know what the hell "Read fail touch IC info" means and is is possible somehow to be fixed?
I am nearly given up on the issue, but this can be helpful for other g3 users with the same issue.

I have a lg g3 d855, after going to the service menu and attempting a touch screen firmware upgrade my phone got stuck and now my touch screen is dead. I tried several solutions, flashing .kdz through lg flash tool, upgrading my firmware through lg mobile support tool etc. I am 100% sure it is not a hardware issue, since the touch screen was working before this. How can I get the service menu to the default settings or something like that. PLEASE share any advice about this issue.
Thank you

The assertion that you are 100% sure it isn't a hardware issue is ridiculous. Now that that is out of the way why did you upgrade touch screen firmware? You also aren't very specific saying you tried to install touch screen firmware and then my phone got isn't very specific. I also don't understand the question about default settings doesn't the kdz include all firmware? if you already flashed the stock kdz and its not fixed you might be out of luck, maybe ask someone who knows alot about jtaging or something but i don't even know if that is possible for a touch screen. if you already hard reset the phone or flashed stock kdz's then maybe try upgrading the firmware again, if it is a bad firmware flash and for some reason the kdz didn't reinstall it why not try to upgrade it again hoping it is successful this time?. tip don't multitask or let your phone fall asleep during any kind of firmware upgrading from the android system (meaning if you aren't flashing from a custom recovery like twrp or clockworkmod.)
( you might have to use a usb adapter and a mouse to perform these tasks if your digitizer isn't working (ie touchscreen))
So I broke my screen kept it lying around for 24 months then finally got it fixed this week
After replacement my power button doesn't wake up the screen at once
prolly press 20 times before it wakes up
The capacitive buttons light up on each press and even vibrates with fingerprint but screen stays off
It works fine in twrp lock screen. Locks and wakes up properly there.
The repair guy said that it's a software problem so he'll software reset it for for me I send it back
just clean flash havoc os latest but still the same problem

nope because the system drivers are corrupt so it needs to be reset by unbricking the device
ok thanks, but can u explain me the steps , cause i don't exactly know how to unbrick. Cause I've never done so.
I don't want anything wrong to happen.

Firstly download the unbrick tool I have sent you through the link then switch off your phone and make sure cable is unplugged then hold the volume up button on your phone and then plug in the USB cable to the computer and phone then on your computer and open device manager and make sure under ports it says Qualcomm 9 and then extract the unbrick tool then run mam as admin then click start

This has a collection of unbrick tools and versions of OOS.
This contains detailed instructions also.
Hope you solve your problem.
If not and you still have warranty for the display (OnePlus gives atleast 3 months warranty on replacement), take the phone to the Service Center. In fact, if you have warranty, that should be the first option.
Thanks for the response.
But I don't think my device is bricked, cause the phone is on working mode, but it's just that whenever I lock my phone.. It does not gets unlock on the first attempt. I need to press the unlock/power button end number of times & the phone still don't responds. It gets crashed and the System UI error occurs & asks for force stop & the phone is lagging a lot. I can't even use it properly.
I would still recommend doing it
have you got it sorted

I completed the process.
But it's still happening.
Not that much. But it is happening every 5th time I try to unlock my phone.
By this point you have two options get another device or get your op3 and take it to a OnePlus service center and get it repaired

OnePlus service is worse.
I guess I need to purchase a new smartphone then, or find some other solution.
