Nexus 5X Won't Turn on! Please Help! - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I've been using my Nexus 5X for about a year now and I have loved it, but now it wont turn on. I'm running a custom rom (Dirty Unicorns 11 beta) and after doing simple stuff, it crashed and the screen won't turn on. I've dealt with a similar issue and all I had to do was a hard restart, but even that's not working at the moment. I press and held the power and volume down buttons for about 2 minutes and nothing happened. I cannot figure out what is going on. No matter what I do, nothing happens.
Please help me fix this!
Thank you in advance.
Correction:I did once get it to boot into bootloader, but when I hit start, the screen went black.

[Q] Phone won't turn on!

This started about 2 days ago. At first, I was on Liquid smooth ROM and my phone suddenly turned off, and kept ketting pulse vibrations but would never turn on. I could only get into cwm recovery, so i restored to JMTX2 ROM
Today, It happened again. But now, i cannot even get into the CWM recovery. Someone please help!!
as of now, it just pulse vibrates with a blank screen. (it shows "samsung" and then starts vibrating).
How can i fix this?

Yeah my phone has done that once before, but not with Liquid smooth. I remember it just giving me a blank screen with vibrations that didnt stop. I couldn't tell you what caused it or anything but I remember just taking the battery out for awhile, using a different charger (it worked for me), and just letting it stop doing whatever it was doing lol.. It probally went on for like 2 hours or so but I was doing whatever I can to turn it back on. I hope it works for you, just keep messing with it and it should stop eventually. Good luck

From what I've read, sounds like your power button could be stuck.
Check this out.

It was exactly that. I fixed it last night.
Solution: I took a small pin and a small flathead screw driver and picked the edges of power button. eventually it started up again!

[HELP] Screen off, vibrating continuously

Hi,
My phone has been working fine since I did S-off and installed a LeeDroid 2.3 ROM a year ago. This wednesday I had to install another ROM because of boot loop problems with the previous one. I used VJ CM10.1 v5.3 which worked amazing for almost 2 days. Yesterday at night while the phone was charging I couldn't unblock it (black screen) and the orange led kept light event without usb cable. I removed the battery and since then the phone only vibrates continuously when I turn it on. Even without battery if I use an USB cable it starts vibrating inmediatly, of course with any screen response (in the dark you can see a very light attempt to start the screen but nothing else). The PC don't detect anything when I plug it and I can't use any key combination to get to Recovery.
I wasn't doing anything dangerous, only charging but the ROM was only 2 days old. Does anybody now what is happening or how could I fix it? Sorry if It has been responsed but I think not (It's no the 7 vibrations problem).
I can provide more information if needed.Thanks a lot.
Take out the battery, hold the power button for 10 seconds, then try to boot.

Same result. It only vibrates. I'm considering hardware fault (is 2 years and half old) but as I changed the ROM this week seems to be somewhat related.
Before we come to a conclusion, let's try all the stuff we can.
Does the phone boot in hboot?
No, all key combinations apparently have the same result.
The last thing i'd like you to try is putting your phone in the freezer with the battery taken out. Who knows, maybe it will boot afterwards.
If not, then send it to a service.
Thanks a lot, I will try. By the way, I've started saving money to buy the Nexus 4
AW: [HELP] Screen off, vibrating continuously
You will love the N4
Anyway good luck on saving the life of your desire!

S III sgh-i747 turned off and wont turn on URGENT

i apologize if this has been solved but i am on a very tight time frame as i need this phone for work and cant spend any longer searching. my phone randomly turned off by itself this morning and will not turn back on. it gets to the samsung splash screen and the screen just goes black and the phone wont do anything, its like the screen is stuck off, i have to take the battery out to make it turn do anything at all again. it was stock this morning, never been rooted or anything, i just rooted it about an hour ago and installed twrp and flashed jedi invasion 5 on it in hopes it would help. now it gets past the splash screen and to the initial setup screen but it only stays on it for about 3 seconds before the screen goes black again and i have to take the battery out for it to do anything again. im not an expert by any means but i have flashed note 2's and played with them a bit and know my way arround them for the most part. any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated.
almost forgot to mention, in download mode it says qualcomm secureboot: enable
not sure if that means anything but i didnt get any errors while flashing or anything
thanks everyone

I would make sure you have to correct drivers installed for the phone on your computer and ODIN back to stock. You can give that a try and see if it helps.
I'll check that out when I get home but I'm pretty sure everything is right, it was doing it before I even flashed anything so I think something else is the problem

Faulty battery or power button. You can try ODIN back to stock, not likely it will help.
It's not a battery or power button problem. Before I rooted it if I took the battery out and turned it on again it would turn on fine if I kept the screen from turning off. and the battery was staying charged, and if it wer a power button problem why would it work to turn the phone on but not again after its on?

My vote is a faulty power button. Has been known to happen on the S3. Could be power issues though. Bad battery could be the culprit. If flashing stock does not work see if you can get a battery to test out.

ok so i flashed stock and it fixed it temporarily. after i flashed it it was working great so i decided to root it and flash jedi. so i did this and it still worked great. (at this point i should mention that the sim card in the phone has been deactivated this whole time) so since its working i activate the simcard, restart the phone, and the problem started again. so i took the sim card right out and turned it back on and it works perfectly fine without the sim card in... what do you guys figure? should i try a new sim card? has anyone ever herd of this happening before?
EDIT: tried my other sim card in it and it doesn't work either, so it snot the simcard itself
Bump

Need Help with Galaxy Nexus

hello XDA Community.
this morning something terrible happened.
so i woke up,turned my Galaxy Nexus on and used it for about 3 minutes and suddenly the screen flashes with weird colors and the phone shuts down.
my first thoughts were that the phone has crashed and all i need to do is turn it back on.
i pressed the power button but the phone doesn't start,nothing happens not vibrations and nothing on the sceen.
i pulled out the battery for few secs and put it back in,same result nothing is happening and my Gnex is not starting.
i tried hard reset (power+Volume Down) with same results.
i'm running stock official android 4.3 and never rooted my phone and it's the GSM variant of the Gnex.
any help and thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Continuous flashing of welcome screen on boot

Hello everyone. I am using an unrooted HTC 10.
A few days ago I switched off my phone overnight, in the morning when I turned it on, I noticed that the HTC welcome screen flashes and then goes back to to black and instantly flashes again, while vibrating every time it flashes. Sometimes it would do that 2 times, sometimes more. And then finally it boots normally and the phone would start.
It happens only when I switch off and power on my device, not when I restart it.
I've done a factory reset but that doesn't seem to resolve anything, as the issue still exists.
Thank you, in advance, for any responses.
Your help in any form, such as suggestions and opinions, is much appreciated.

It's the same as with the buttons back light and the charging LED, and has been mentioned numerous times all over different threads. It's a software and hardware self-check when booting up. Mine does the same during boot up.
