Hey, so I was messing around with my phone and using TWRP, I deleted the original ROM and then, having forgotten that I'd deleted the ROM, tried to reboot the phone. My phone is now stuck on the HTC splash screen (which at the bottom has the text "This build is for development purposes only...") and won't turn off, despite me holding the power button for probably 1+ minutes. I'm planning to wait until the battery dies, then once I can boot again try to get into TWRP by holding the power button and volume down. Does anyone know if there's a way I can get to TWRP without having to wait until the battery dies (my phone is at full charge), or whether this will not work and I should try something else?
Thanks in advance!
Press and hold power & volume up buttons until the screen turn black then release both buttons and quickly press & hold volume down button only. This will get you to hboot

Took my phone out of my jacket pocket earlier since I thought I could hear a weird buzzing noise every ~8seconds. Looked at my phone and can see it's stuck in a boot loop. I can't hold the power button to turn it off it gets as far as the HTC screen and then goes black. I've tried to get into recovery mode (just holding down the volume - button). It does work to get in there but I only have ~8 seconds before it goes black and reboots again, doesn't seem to be able to pic any of the different options in there though (with - or +)
This phone is stock O2 (EIRE) never been touched not even rooted. Anyone have seen these issues with HTC One X? :crying:
Is there any recommendations that I can do? (key combo) Hoping that when the battery dies it'll go away... doesn't feel to stable though!
I have an idea ...... turn it in for warranty right away
anything to try first?
Hi,
Try this:
Hold power button together with volume down simultaneously till the phone reboots. Still holding both buttons you should go to service menu. Then choose bootloader with using volume key down/up and when the bootloader is selected press once power button. You should go to bootloader menu, from which you select power off and press power menu.
Your phone should be power off.
Then try to press again power and volume down buttons till you gonna gain in service menu. From there you should find and select factory reset and press power button once.
Your phone should be resented and then just reboot.
If everything is correct your phone will be with everything reserved and also your data and settings will be gone, but at least will work. Then you should set again your settings and preferences.
Hope this could help to get your mobile working again.

Thanks dude, that almost worked... got a bit further after factory reset... went to the O2 splash logo and then back to beginning... actually tried it again before hitting reply, wanted to make sure that I actually had time to hit the factory reset before the phone rebooted (8seconds, less actually seems to be 2-3 seconds then a bit longer after...)
I've got a feeling the phone is/has overheated and resetting itself. I think it's rubbish you can't take the battery our of these!
Finally stopped rebooting, battery must be knackered. Will leave it for a while and then start a charge, think it's going into an O2 outlet Monday!
As soon as I started charging the phone booted up and back to loop...
Sorry mate ...like i said, warranty case
I have been using my LG Optimus G for about 6 months now and everything was working fine, untill yesterday.
My phone ran out of battery and i left it over night to recharge. In the morning when i tried to turn it on
the screen just stayed black and it wouldnt start. The only thing i can get out of it is when its plugged in
and i hold the power button for about 10-15 seconds the led light shines red for about 7 seconds.
Other than that i cant do anything with it, cant even get the lg logo or the vibration from the boot.
Tried a hard reset-didnt work
Ive looked a little bit online but i couldnt find any problems like this and i really dont want to buy a anew phone
since ill have to save up for like 6 months
Please help
Thank you in advance
PS: Sucks to have this as my first post
Had also that problem. For me it helped to press the power button as long as it takes untill phone goes on even if it takes some minutes. But if it not help, try to boot in bootloader(volume up+power+home). In Bootloader mode press 2times volume down and power button to get to your recovery. If getting succesfully to recovery make a full wipe and install your rom.

Held the power for 2 min and no effect. And for the second point, what do you mean by Vol up+ Power+Home, because my phone doesent have a physical home button.
Press volume up+ home+ power (all together). Home button which you usualy use all the time, yes that button in the mid, i know its not really pressing so hold your finger on it. After that you will come to the Bootloder mode, in there you should press 2x volume down and then power, this will bring you to your recovery.

Wont work . This looks more like a hardware malfunction.
It seems the battery is not charging. If your phone is not modified in anyway,send it to warranty. If you're rooted and have a custom rom,go to a gsm service,at least to make it turn on. If they do that,flash stock and up to warranty with it.

My LG Optimus G is stuck on the Android System Recovery screen. I can move up and down with the volume bar but I can select anything because you need to use the soft menu button and my screen is cracked there. Is there anyway to get around this? I've tried holding power and volume down to reset it but it just restarts and goes back to the recovery screen.

The power button should be the select. Press up or down on the volume to navigate and press power when you are where you want it to be.
Is the recovery stock or CWM? The power button should work either way for the select. Hope this helps.
also if you are just trying to restart, try holding down only power for about 20-30 seconds, it should do a hard shut down, then when you press power to turn on again it should go to the system.

I'm not sure if it's stock, it says Android Recovery System e3. It says to hit enter to choose an option but hitting the power button wouldn't select anything. I held down the power down and it shut off and isn't turning back on.
my lg optimus g turned off and now it wont come on or hold a charge
Well where do I start, I love this phone and I have not had a single issue with it until yesterday, took my phone off the charger in the am walked out the door , started my car went to make a phone call and my phone was off , tried to turn it on and to no avail, so i took the battery out of the phone (mind you this was quite an experience taking the back cover off) took care of that unhooked the battery let it sit for 5 minutes and it came back on like a charm , well as the day progressed my battery eventually died , so im thinking no biggie right? wrong tried to turn my phone on and nothing at all , just a solid red light which eventually cuts off but thats only when you put it on a charger and does nothing no blinking lights no power nothing. So ive been online following a bunch of different steps and the only thing i could do was put the phone into download mode when connected to a cpu but the cpu doesnt seem to see the device nor does it have power , im trying to fix this myself if possible, im really not trying to pay for a repalcement phone or wait 14 days to get another one so ill try as hard as i can here first and see if i can get some help.. PLEASE!!!! HELP!!!

Did the battery die? What happens when it is plugged in and you hold down the power? (to attempt to turn back on)
hi
i recently updated the firmware on my device and when i rebooted it, it didn't go into fast boot. I have tried holding the power button for 30 secs to 1 min but the strange thing is, i am able to change the volume and at one point I could tap the screen and hear keypad noises. i can also access the storage on my computer.
any ideas to exit this?
thanks
Try holding power button and volume up for about 30 seconds or so. When the screen goes dark to reboot, let go of those buttons and just hold volume down. Don't let go until the bootloader screen appears.
If it didn't work, it means you either pressed vol down too late, or let go of it too early. Just try again.
This usually works when folks have issues getting into bootloader.
I fixed it by holding the power button in then pressing the screen. I guess I hit shutdown
Hi,
My Pixel 6 Pro screen went black, but I can still hear and feel that the phone is working. I used the volume up + power button to reboot it and now I touch the phone and I feel it vibrate as it's registering the touches. I also see at the bottom of the screen some white stripes flashing. It seems that the screen is damaged and I need a replacement screen.
Now my issue is that I can't seem to turn it off. As the screen is black, the only way to shut it down would be with hardware keys. But up until now, I haven't been able to figure out a way to turn the phone off.
Does anyone know how I can turn of the phone?
To replace the screen, obviously I need to turn it off first...
Usually long pressing the power button, but it may be different. As long as it gets fixed within a month or so it you can let it discharge until it auto shuts down. If more than a year old replacing the battery when repaired is a good idea anyway...
I tried long pressing the power button with no luck.
I tried volume down + power button for 20 seconds, didn't work either.
I tried volume up + power button for 20 seconds, this I think reboots the phone.

Power button only might take 20 or so seconds.
Otherwise just like it sit until repaired.
Power button + vol up + vol down. Keep holding down once you feel the phone vibrate. Takes you to the bootloader screen
The battery died.. so that's good!
Thanks anyways
