Desire HD Problem

Hey guys,
Was just looking through the market and saw an animations app, so i downloaded it, installed as normal, accepted the superuser request and chose what animation i wanted, (I chose blur if it makes any difference). It then requested a reboot, so i rebooted, but now nothing happens to my phone, It is just like the phone is powered off, nothing comes up on the screen. Ive tried booting normally and booting into recovery but nothing
Any ideas?
I'm using Leedroid ROM and Kernel, both on the latest versions.
Thanks in advance.

So just to be sure, you held volume down and pressed the power button simultaneously and after a few seconds nothing happened though you should see at least the HTC logo for a moment.
Did you also try to get the battery out and back in?
Also try plugging the power cable in and load the phone - this starts CWM for me every time (running on Leedroid too).

Yes tried everything there, its almost as if there is no power going to the phone, nothing seems to work :/

I am deeply confused if you say no power gets to the phone when connecting with the power cable :-\ You had enough power when rebooting? Can you try another battery from someone to check the functionality of yours?
Here my ideas sort of stop, maybe someone else has got an idea?

Yes i was wondering if my battery is faulty or something, i will try a new battery i think

Doesn't have to be the case, but in such a world full of HTC users it would be an easy test to find out about this possibility. It's just so... strange.

Nope emailed HTC but they weren't very helpful, think i'm just gonna send it off for repair

I don't know if it makes any difference, what about taking out the battery for more than a moment like 10 minutes? I remember such stuff from PCs (and honestly, these phones became small PCs ^^) when there were certain hardware related issues when you had to not only switch it off and on, but also switch it off, disconnect, then hold power to release the last leftovers of voltage and leave it out for a few minutes. You can't loose more right now when trying this.

HTC ONE X has been Rooted....

http://www.droiddog.com/android-blog/2012/03/htc-one-x-gets-rooted/
"Despite the fact that regular consumers can’t get their hands on the One X by HTC quite yet, that hasn’t stopped some intrepid individuals out there from managing to gain root access before retail availability. Things like this have happened in the past, so it’s not all that uncommon or shocking. More than anything, it’s a good sign that the development community who have been fans of HTC-branded devices in the past, shouldn’t be all that disappointed with the upcoming device’s wide release.
The device has been rooted courtesy of MoDaCo, and they’ve pulled out all the stops. Instead of a long, drawn-out process, MoDaCo has created a Superboot, which will let you root the One X in one, simple action. No adb commands, and no real fussing. Just a boot image that gets the job done, and your root access guaranteed.
It is said to work with Mac, Linux and Windows and it is reportedly fully capable with the full retail handset. Go ahead and head through the link below to learn more.

That's awesome. That was super fast

Wow
Wow .. it's not even out yet .. this proves me right that this would be the best phone on the plant when released.

Do this mean, i can get it unlocked from 3 Three operator once i get it? Because i will be using another operator with the phone -.-

HTC One V
Hi,
I do not want to open a new tread, I will post here my problem. I got HTC One V on a test, and during the upgrade (with official HTC SW) phone froze, it stops responding so the only option was to turn it off with power button. After that, phone is dead, it does not turn on (power, power+volume up(down)), it is not charging and PC does't recognize it when connected via USB. The battery cann't be removed (unibody).
Is there any way to get that phone alive with some trick, is there any way to disconnect the battery (maybe with some custom USB cable or to use PINs).
BR, L

try holding the powerbutton for a long time.. this should have the same effect as removing the battery

I have tried to hold it for 1.5 hour (stick it with tape), still nothing. Any other idea?

According to HTC you need to press and hold the power button for 10 secs it basically stimulates battery removal. Not sure why it isn't working for you though

very good news !

I hope a programm for s-off comes soon.

Phone switches on in the pocket

Is there any way to set the power button not to work while the phone is locked?
I constantly facing the problem that the phone switches off and restart in my pocket. It happens when I lean my body to tight the shoes or squeeze the phone in my pocket in some other way.
Thanks

Eh?
Whilst your phone is in your pocket, you can press power button, then swipe to unlock (before screen timeout) & then long press power button till it restarts - all whilst in your pocket?
I highly doubt this, sounds like you have software issues - are you running a unstable OC/UV?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

I can restart the phone by long press the power button. Even when the lock is on. Without unlocking it.
I checked on my friends htc v, which is even not rooted, and it works the same. While the phone is locked long press on the power button causes restart..
I was just wondering if can change that. Never had that problem with the sensation, but that one is a bit smaller

Yeah, sorry.
I didn't think you could reboot whilst locked, just checked on my own and your correct.
Wish I had a solution for you, but at least my reply has bumped you to the top. LOL
I havnt heard anyone have this problem before, the power button only sticks out a little bit, and it needs a bit of force to push
Maybe this is an overlooked request to be submitted to some of the custom rom developers.

Yeah, I've also looked in goggle but nobody seems to have similar problem.. .
It may be a fault of my cover. The lock of the cover is right above the power button and mayby they just didn't design it correctly..

Besides a phone case no solution
the reason for the long press is it is a life saver.
As we cannot take the battery out of the one x like the sensation, if you are frozen or stuck on bootscreen, you cant exactly pull the battery and put it back in, so by holding the power button for seven seconds, it simulates a battery pull forcing the phone to restart no matter what!
without it if you were frozen on bootscreen or just frozen or needed to restart by cutting off power to the battery and then power up. you would not be able to do it.

I'll have to find a way how to not pushing it so .
Thanks people

Hi there,
I experienced the same thing, when sitting in the car or tighting the shoes.. i'm hearing starting up sound of HTC ... quietly bla bla..
well, I dont like cases i'm not using such, thats why i found a solution for me and till now its working
so if you putting your phone in left pocket, then try to put it with display forward, but if you dont like it that way, then you should start using your right pocket ..that way the power button is staying at the outer side of you and wont be pressed when you "do" something.
hope this could help
Cheers

[Q] The Battery Pull Dilemma

Hello HTC One M8 Owners, I have a question for you.
Right now, I have a Galaxy S3. Being that I root and often flash things, there have been times where I have gotten stuck in boot-loops and had to do battery pulls. The fact that I cannot do that on this phone is one thing holding me back from getting it, so I would like to know, does the lack of the ability to pull the battery ever frustrate and or detract from the value of the phone? Quite honestly, if I got in a boot-loop with this phone I wouldn't know what to do besides let the battery die. I'm wondering if it's been an issue for anyone here.
Thanks!

Holding the power button and volume up for 10 seconds simulates removing the battery, this works at all times even when your stuck in a bootloop.

That was the only reason I almost didn't trade my S4 for an HTC One. Honestly, it was never an issue for me. On the m7, you held the power button for 10 seconds and it shut off.
Scared me at first when the M8 didn't do the same, but with a little experimenting, I found you just Power and Volume Up for a few seconds and it does the same thing.
Personally, I came from an S3 to an S4 to an HTC M7, and now my M8. I have never regretted going from Samsung and their Touchwiz UI to HTC's Sense. Hardware isn't much of an issue to me, since a massive majority of the apps will never reach the capabilities we have now. I would suggest making the switch

I am stuck in Entering Recovery mode, closing down and restarts again loop. If I do the volume up, it does turns off or it does anyway to restart, so it turns on shortly after and I cannot do volume down to entering fastboot again.
Any ideas?
Edit: Nvm. It seem to solve itself when it gets low enough on battery.

If it is restarting itself, just hold vol down, and don't let go, until you see the bootloader screen. Once it goes through a full "reboot" cycle next time, it will go to bootloader.
Essentially, holding vol down during any power-on or reboot, will trigger going to bootloader. Regardless of how that power-on or reboot was initiated.

[HALP] HARD bricked!?

I have a rooted and xposed 820. And on this morning, while I am using my phone to play Pokemon Go, the phone got itself shutted down all of a sudden ( black screen ). And several seconds later it boots up, showing the green "hTC" logo alongside the red words below, and again, several seconds later ALL THE WORDS on the boot screen turned yellow and a second later the screen turned off and it reboots again! This loop has run for 4 times and in the last time I decided to go into TWRP to clear cache and davik cache and hope this will bring it back to life. Well it does make it booting into the system and showing the bootanimation, but in some seconds, it reboot again and the yellow words appear again.
After the last yellow screen appeared I was frustrated and decided to leave it shutted down ( TWRP method ) and try to fire it up later today. Later, I dissemble my phone and reseat the battery, hoping that this will reset some of the parameters inside the phone. But, just when I want to power it up after that, I found that it can be neither power up nor enter recovery. After connecting it to my adb and fastboot-installed desktop computer, it blinks orange LED lights and it CANNOT BE RECOGNIZED AS A DEVICE by my computer in device manager.
Now I am not sure if it is really hard bricked or just any other thing else

1. Disconnect your phone from the charger.
2. Press the power button 10 times at 1 second intervals to discharge.
3. Now hold down the power button for 16-30 seconds until it turns on.
4. Charge the phone correctly, even if he says that the phone is charging. WOW ... my phone is still alive !! All I did today was:
I tried the charger from my galaxy nuclei (as well as the strength of the current 820 = Htc 1A), but I used the original cable from my Htc charger. The LED indicator is still flashing, so I decided to "knock" on the back (around the site where the connector from batterry there), and then I pressed VOL- and VOL and the power button for 20-30-ies, and then I pressed the power button and VOL- about 30s, then I released everything, and then I pressed the power button for 10 seconds, and my phone is turned on !!! I'm so happy! my phone is still under warranty, but I live abroad now, so I need to send it to my country, to begin the process of warranty, but not IM free from this!
Thank you, guys, for pushing me to try again magic tricks with cables, chargers and Btw button.
My batterry is now 100% o.o = this means that it is charging all the time?
I do not know what it was, but I'm glad it's working now. 2. Tighten the two volume buttons and the power button when a black screen appears to hold the volume- button and power, smart mustget into in the loader in the boot loader to choose reboot (assuming that the system is not removed)

What Android version you have? Red text at boot screen means that kernel is modified (by SuperSU or Xposed if is installed in boot image). But I never see yellow text in my phone. Can you quote this yellow text?
Wysłano z Tapatalk / Sent with Tapatalk

From the symptoms...it seems a faulty battery.
What are the yellow texts?

@tomal @QkiZMR The yellow test are the yellow version of bootscreen, that include the "hTC" logo, "powered by android" banner and the "This build is for development purpose only. Failure to compile may lead to legal action."warning. Beside all of this, the background is still white.
@QkiZMR I have the stock android 6.0 release by hTC, rooted, xposed and S-OFFed.
@tomal I do agree with your point! Before the device shut down, I charged the whole night ( around 9 hrs ) with a 2.1A portable battery and a 3.1A portable battery and it can only charge half of my battery... I first thought that is the fault of my portable battery so I use my friend's portable battery instead and still no improvements...
P's Before the shut down, I should have about 50% of power.
P's2 I have adopted storage, running well before, does it matter?

I think that sdcard prepared as internal storage is not a issue. Something bad happen with system files. Did you try to format data partition? This will erase all your settings and apps.

Yes, I have those equivalent apparatus, but I have no micro-scale pin and I am not sure the nodes of the battery, so I just took it to a local repair shop and see what's happen in it.
I hope I will have no need to buy a new phone:crying:
But if it so, I must be going back to SONY where flashing is more easier and better environment for development.

Checking finished. I took it to several repair shop and they all have different conclusion on my situation. But mainly is due to the I.C. adapter failure and faulty battery. It is repairable, but it costs me the same amount for a new D820 ( ~USD200 ) here. So I decided to give up on this phone and buy another one. Thanks for the help @tomal and @QkiZMR have offered me and if you guys have any further suggestion for me on reviving my 820, please tell me selflessly. I would like to try my best to develop some ROMs for this device once the kernel source code is out!

Maybe battery was overheated. You wrote that you playing Pokemon Go, this game use a lot of battery juice. That produce heat.
Is the battery is swollen?

But neither the 2.1A nor the 3A will charge my phone even when I am not playing the game and terminated the process. The power consumed by the phone is equal to the power charged by the batteries. So that's why I charged for nearly 9 hours and still 10% boost only...
