Hi,
i am not a newbie and I have searched for this problem over and over but have not seen a solution to it.
I have black 2.0 installed on an Imate JasJam with
Radio 1.34.00.10 and the SSPL bootloader.
Ok so the problem is 1 out of 5 times I charge my phone the orange charge light will not come on and the phone will not charge.
When I soft reboot it the charge light returns to normal and it all works great. I know this is nothing to do with the rom as I have changed that several times and the problem still exists. I doubt its the radio too as i have upgraded and downgraded before.
Can any one advise me as to what I could upgrade to resolve this. Also if you have experienced this then what did u do to fix it.
thanks
This is somewhat of a known issue. happens to me all the time on my car charger.
Because i unplug it so frequently it tells me its not charging although its plugged in. I soft reset it with the charger still plugged in and all is well.. its been noted before on these forums sodon't worry your not alone.
ahhhh thanks..... maybe i was using the wrong search strings. Does any one care to provide a link.... im sorry fro asking to be spoon fed...... and is there not a solution?

Go over and look in the accessories forum. Search for 4 pin charger.
This is an issue with the wrong charger. Long story short, you need to use HTC chargers, both wall and car.
coolios... thanks dude..... now I can continue bricking my hermes in peace ....
Hi
I have a serious problem. In short, my phone is starting normally until it reaches to the Lock Screen it hangs there for a sec then it will restart and keeps like this until it is out of battery. Also for me the volume down button doesnt work at all meaning I cant reach to Bootloader.
Details:
One day my HOX fall into my fish tank but I was able to take it out immediately and put it into bag of rice and it survived with two things not working: headset input and the Volume Down button.
Ok. I had no problems without them until last night. I have Android Revolution HD but dont know which version I dont remember. I wanted to go back to stock. And here what I did as much as I can remember:
- Flashed secure BOOT.IMG. I took it out from RUU 1.29.415.
- Flashed Recovery also took it from RUU.
- Relocked it.
Until now I had no problem I was able to use HTC Quick Root to restart to bootloader. Actually After relocking it was rebooting always to bootloader. I was never able to go to Recovery at all.
The real problems started when UNLOCKED it again.
Now what is going on is that it is looping as I mentioned at the beginning. I CANT go to bootloader because of the button problem. And Mainly the HTC Quick Root cant recognize it when I connect it to My Laptop although I'm sure the laptop does.
I tried RUU a time and it showed me version error.
Please advise. I am desperate I cant afford buying a new phone.What should I do?
Hope those fishies didnt fry !

No the tank was empty I was filling the tank only.
Update:
I have just uninstalled HTC drivers from my laptop and installed them again. When I connect my HOX - it is turned off- I got the following :
USB Composite Device --- Ready to use.
USB Mass storage --- Ready to use.
MyHTC -- Ready to use.
HTC Android Phone USB Device --- Ready to use.
But the problem remains as it is.

Take it apart and wash it with isopropyl alcohol. You should be able to find some guides for this type of thing.

OH no man. Just looking at the video scared me out. I dont have the skill doing that I know I will damage it.
Well, the question is Why the program wont see it connected while it will be recognized by the laptop even if the mobile is off ? I just need a way somehow to go to the bootloaders.

The more you use it, the less likely you'll be able to fix it. You need to disconnect the battery.
Impurities in the water will short the electronics and fry them.
The alcohol will help dissolve the impurities and clean the components, it will evaporate without leaving a nasty residue.
Good luck, but don't hold out too much hope.

Find a repair shop and see if they'll take on a water-damage repair. If they dont seem confident (like they've done it before - they might confidently express doubt!), try another.
WOW. I was able to go to Fastboot simply by pressing the Volume down hard, REALLY HARD.
So now I am confused and scared what to do.
flash a rom!!

I suggest to flash a new rom,( if your hox bootloop or stucks at bootloader)... if battery is empty, charge it with a charge script.
hope it help you.
sorry for my bad english.
I erased everything from my one x and was stuck in bootloader mode and while i was trying to solve it the battery overdrained. I've tried to charge it with different types of chargers, even let it charge all night, but it didnt react. Not even the notifier led flashed. So i took it to t-mobile and they've charged it with a special charger and i was able to see the bootloader menu. I've asked the guy to charge it again so i could run the ruu on it. But when he brought it back, everything was the same, no reaction for anything. Of course they've rejected to repair it because it was rooted. I even bought a new battery, and put it in, but no luck. Im desperately need help on solving this. Any idea would be appreciated.
Thanks

I wanted to respond to your first post, but failed to force myself to do it. Now it's also a pain, why? I could think about your problem, I probably could even tell you what's the problem, the thing is I can't, I'm not magician, I can't read tarot cards, I don't read future (or somebody problems) from a crystal ball, or some animal intestines. I do not communicate with spirits or satan himself to do so.
So please If you require assistance in technical matters, be specific, describe what you have done, or tried. What was phones reaction. Details, details, details. When You WILL describe what have you done, or tried I will try to help, before that I won't waste any more time thinking about possible problems.
P.S.
Sorry for the tone of this post, I simply am tired of unspecific help requests.
Afnanshareef,
Phones usually shut off, some people say, "Die" at ±3.2 volts and won't reboot until they get sufficient charge. Not sure whether you replaced he battery a year ago or haven't charged/used it for a year. Try a separate wall charger that you can place the battery in if you have, or can borrow one. That will bypass any phone circuitry and might charge it. I have other suggestions to revive a, "Dead" battery, even if it is way down on volts. Do you have a DMM (Digital Multi-Meter) that you can see what the voltage is? Any corrosion on the contacts or leaking? Post again if you still need help.
Hello friends,
My apologies if I have posted in the wrong section.
My Nexus 7 2013 has Android 4.4.4 on it, it's unlocked, rooted, and has the ElementalX-N7-2.13 custom kernel. It ran flawless until a few days ago, Adaway updated definitions, and asked for a reboot. I have done this several times before without issue. This last time, the screen went black, and no matter what button press combinations, will not boot even into recovery. Tried everything I know of. Last of which, was plugging it into my pc, and utilizing the Wugs tool kit "soft bricked" script. Of course it doesn't work, because I don't have adb/fastboot status. My pc no longer even recognizes the tablet. All that shows up, is Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Com3.
Fully charging it, and unplugging the battery for a few hours, has done nothing. Do you think the bootloader got damaged? Why would Adaway do that??
You guys are my last hope, before it hits the trash, as I am not turning it into Asus for warranty replacement. I have way too much sensitive stuff on it (no it's not porn) for it to fall in someone else's hands.
Take pitty on a pathetic noob. Greatly appreciate any info. THANK YOU!

Since its showing this Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Com3. Its bricked. Sorry
Btw stop using toolkits. Maybe using that bootloader got corrupted.

Thought I read on another thread, someone recovered theirs, by using QPST? Or is that just wishful thinking?
Sorry to see this dude, you might want to check this dude out. I have ever heard nothing but good things about his jTag work, not sure if he can help but worth a try good luck!!! http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com

When it launched the original Nexus 7 was a landmark device. It was the first of the budget tablets that actually delivered a premium experience and the 7-inch form factor made it the perfect bridge between phones and tablets making it both a pleasure to interact with while remaining (jacket) pocketable. However just over one year on and people are complaining that it’s become slow to the point of unusable.

Thanks, but it appears this thing is dead. I know not to use Adaway ever again though. Adaway did something to the bootloader.

No what? It can't be a coincidence, it bricked immediately after Adaway updated, and required a reboot.

Adaway does nothing to the boot loader. It was either:
A. A coincidence
B. Your device is bricked from adaway but the bootloader is fine.

Okay, here's what you do.
Use a DIT guide and open it. I have taken the back case off myself with my nail. It's not hard.
Take out the battery and disconnect it.
Reconnect the battery and try to turn it on.
Use power+volume down for 2 minute , and see if it powers up.
Secondly hold power+ volume down for a minute and then power+volume up for a minute before disconnecting the battery. See it it powers up. If not try opening the back case, there are many guides, I have one in general section but use fixit guide which is more clear and professional.
Good luck.

I'm not even sure at this point, if the battery isn't stone dead. I messed around with it so much, trying to get it working again. I tried all the button combinations, though not exactly as you have detailed. I think I will charge it via the wall charger for a while, then disassemble it again, and try your suggestion.
Several people told me, it's beyond recovery, so put it in the closet and forgot about it.
Thank you, stay tuned.......

Don't get too excited. There're small delicate parts and ribbon is also very fragile so use fixit guide

Why is it necessary to remove the battery? Isn't it enough, just to unplug it? That way you don't mess with the ribbon cables?

THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID showing you second picture .
Remove battery is a term, we usually use for phone to take it out in order to disconnect kits power source . That's exactly what we want here. unplug it!

Yeah that makes sense. As I outlined in my initial post, I have unplugged the battery already, with no luck. There didn't seem to be any real consensus on the button press procedure. I've read 30 seconds, 1 minute, press power and both volume up and down at same time, as well as what you have suggested, just not for the length of time you said. Worth a try I suppose, I'll be shocked if it actually works.
Right now I have no way of knowing how much charge (if any) the battery has. Guess I could put a meter on the battery leads. I think I'll just let it wall-charge for a few hours.
Thanks again, stay tuned...........

Lad,
Just try the button trick first of all.
Power+ up
Power + down
Power+ up n down
Plug the charger to nexus and then try these combinations for two minutes each and report.
Only then you should start with taking off the back cover!
I suppose about should take you 15 minutes so I'm waiting for good news!
